The corresponding dispersion relation is a sixth-orderalgebraic equation, governed by six non-dimensional parameters: two thermoelastic couplingconstants, one chirality parameter, the ratio between extensional and torsional moduli, the Fouriernumber, and the dimensionless thermal relaxation. The behavior of the solutions is discussedfrom two perspectives with an asymptotic-numerical approach: (1) the effect of thermal relaxationon the elastic wave celerities, and (2) the effect of thermoelastic coupling on the thermal wavecelerities. With small wavenumbers, the adiabatic solution for Fourier helical strands is recovered.However, with large wavenumbers, the solutions behave differently depending on the thermalrelaxation and chirality. Due to thermoelastic coupling, the thermal wave celerity deviates from theclassical result of the speed of second sound.展开更多

Based on the successful multi-tool automatic polishing system for electric stainless steel kettles, regression analysis and orthogonal tests were employed to construct a polishing process model, with a purpose to improve the automatic polishing technology for electric stainless steel kettles. The model reveals the relationship between the surface roughness and processing parameters including gringding depth, abrasive tangent speed, workpiece rotating speed and axial feeding speed. Simulation and experimental results are in agreement,which shows that this modeling method is feasible in practice, and it can also be used as a guidance for planning automatic polishing process of electric stainless-steel kettles.展开更多
