By using a spectral representation method and FFT technique combined with measured data,a 3D fluctuating wind field considering the tower wind effect is simulated. A novel FE model for buffeting analysis is then presented,in which a specific user-defined Matrix27 element in ANSYS is employed to simulate the aeroelastic forces and its stiffness or damping matrices are parameterized by wind velocity and vibration frequency. A nonlinear time history analysis is carried out to study the influence of the rigid central buckle on the wind-induced buffeting response of a long-span suspension bridge. The results can be used as a reference for wind resistance design of long-span suspension bridges with a rigid central buckle in the future.展开更多

The author finds that when SCB is placed downstream of the shock, it can decrease the adverse pressure gradient. This may prevent the shock foot separation bubble to merge with the trailing edge separation and finally improve the buffet performance. Based on RAE2822 airfoil, two types of SCB are designed according to the two different mechanisms. By using Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes(RANS) and unsteady Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes(URANS) methods to analyze the properties of RAE2822 airfoil with and without SCB, the results show that the downstream SCB can better the buffet performance under a wide range of freestream Mach number and the steady aerodynamics characteristic is similar to that of RAE2822 airfoil. The traditional SCB can only weaken the intensity of the shock under the design condition. Under the off-design conditions, the SCB does not do much to or even worsen the buffet performance. Indeed, the use of backward bump can flatten the leeward side of the airfoil, and this is similar to the mechanism that supercritical airfoil can weaken the recompression of shock wave.展开更多

文摘The research on the form and control method of impact load arresting buffer has been an active topic in the field of buffer arresting system(BAS).It becomes significant on reducing the weight of arresting system,improving the hindered efficiency,and guaranteeing the security of BAS.The hydraulic hindered device of impact load is currently used in BAS.There are some problems.For example,the system needs large power sources.However,once the power of active hydraulic control system is turned off,there arise unpredictable security risks.An arresting form of semi-active control based on magneto-rheological damper(MRD) is proposed,and the mechanical model of the BAS is established.Meanwhile,the state equation of impact load BAS is established according to the characteristics of impact load buffer arresting,and its sliding model buffer control is achieved.Due to the chattering characteristic of the output signal of sliding mode controller,the method to prevent chattering is designed based on short-term energy and zero-crossing rate detection.For the model and chattering suppression of sliding model buffer control algorithms,simulation results show that the proposed state equation and the arresting model are reasonable,and the design of semi-active control algorithm is effective.On the condition of the buffer control system requirement and the accuracy,the proposed algorithms effectively control the chattering of sliding mode control algorithms,and improve the security of the BAS.
文摘Current research shows that the traditional shock control bump(SCB) can weaken the intensity of shock and better the transonic buffet performance. The author finds that when SCB is placed downstream of the shock, it can decrease the adverse pressure gradient. This may prevent the shock foot separation bubble to merge with the trailing edge separation and finally improve the buffet performance. Based on RAE2822 airfoil, two types of SCB are designed according to the two different mechanisms. By using Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes(RANS) and unsteady Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes(URANS) methods to analyze the properties of RAE2822 airfoil with and without SCB, the results show that the downstream SCB can better the buffet performance under a wide range of freestream Mach number and the steady aerodynamics characteristic is similar to that of RAE2822 airfoil. The traditional SCB can only weaken the intensity of the shock under the design condition. Under the off-design conditions, the SCB does not do much to or even worsen the buffet performance. Indeed, the use of backward bump can flatten the leeward side of the airfoil, and this is similar to the mechanism that supercritical airfoil can weaken the recompression of shock wave.

文摘In transonic flow,buffet is a phenomenon of flow instability caused by shock wave/boundary layer interaction and flow separation.The phenomenon is common in transonic flow,and it has serious impact on the structural strength and fatigue life of aircraft.In this paper,three typical airfoils:the supercritical OAT15A,the high-speed symmetrical NACA64A010,and the thin,transonic/supersonic NACA64A204 are selected as the research objects.The flow fields of these airfoils under pre-buffet and buffet onset conditions are simulated by Unsteady Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes (URANS) method,and the mode analysis of numerical results is carried out by Dynamic Mode Decomposition (DMD).Qualitative and quantitative analysis of the shock wave motion,shock wave intensity,shock foot bubble and trailing edge separation,and pressure coefficient fluctuation were performed to attain deep insight of transonic buffet flow features of different airfoils near buffet onset conditions.The results of DMD analysis show that the energy proportion of the steady mode of these airfoils decreases dramatically when approaching the buffet onset angle of attack,while the growth rate of the primary mode increases inversely.It was found that at the onset of buffet,there exist different degrees of merging behavior between shock foot bubble and trailing edge separation during one buffet cycle,and the instability of shock wave and separation induced shear layer are closely related to the merging behavior.

文摘Overlapping community detection has become a very hot research topic in recent decades,and a plethora of methods have been proposed.But,a common challenge in many existing overlapping community detection approaches is that the number of communities K must be predefined manually.We propose a flexible nonparametric Bayesian generative model for count-value networks,which can allow K to increase as more and more data are encountered instead of to be fixed in advance.The Indian buffet process was used to model the community assignment matrix Z,and an uncol-lapsed Gibbs sampler has been derived.However,as the community assignment matrix Zis a structured multi-variable parameter,how to summarize the posterior inference results andestimate the inference quality about Z,is still a considerable challenge in the literature.In this paper,a graph convolutional neural network based graph classifier was utilized to help tosummarize the results and to estimate the inference qualityabout Z.We conduct extensive experiments on synthetic data and real data,and find that empirically,the traditional posterior summarization strategy is reliable.
文摘The Indian buffet process(IBP)and phylogenetic Indian buffet process(pIBP)can be used as prior models to infer latent features in a data set.The theoretical properties of these models are under-explored,however,especially in high dimensional settings.In this paper,we show that under mild sparsity condition,the posterior distribution of the latent feature matrix,generated via IBP or pIBP priors,converges to the true latent feature matrix asymptotically.We derive the posterior convergence rate,referred to as the contraction rate.We show that the convergence results remain valid even when the dimensionality of the latent feature matrix increases with the sample size,therefore making the posterior inference valid in high dimensional settings.We demonstrate the theoretical results using computer simulation,in which the parallel-tempering Markov chain Monte Carlo method is applied to overcome computational hurdles.The practical utility of the derived properties is demonstrated by inferring the latent features in a reverse phase protein arrays(RPPA)dataset under the IBP prior model.
