Mathematical model for abrasive suspension jet cutting based on orthogonal test design

This paper describes the application of orthogonal test design coupled with non-linear regression analysis to optimize abrasive suspension jet （AS J） cutting process and construct its cutting model. Orthogonal test design is applied to cutting stainless steel. Through range analysis on experiment results, the optimal process conditions for the cutting depth and the kerr ratio of the bottom width to the top width can be determined. In addition, the analysis of ranges and variances are all employed to identify various factors： traverse rate, working pressure, nozzle diameter, standoff distance which denote the importance order of the cutting parameters affecting cutting depth and the kerf ratio of the bottom width to the top width. ~rthermore, non-linear regression analysis is used to establish the mathematical models of the cutting parameters based on the cutting depth and the kerr ratio. Finally, the verification experiments of cutting parameters＇ effect on cutting performance, which show that optimized cutting parameters and cutting model can significantly improve the prediction of the cutting ability and quality of ASJ.

Inflatable Wing Design Parameter Optimization Using Orthogonal Testing and Support Vector Machines

The robust parameter design method is a traditional approach to robust experimental design that seeks to obtain the optimal combination of factors/levels. To overcome some of the defects of the inflatable wing parameter design method, this paper proposes an optimization design scheme based on orthogonal testing and support vector machines （SVMs）. Orthogonal testing design is used to estimate the appropriate initial value and variation domain of each variable to decrease the number of iterations and improve the identification accuracy and efficiency. Orthogonal tests consisting of three factors and three levels are designed to analyze the parameters of pressure, uniform applied load and the number of chambers that affect the bending response of inflatable wings. An SVM intelligent model is established and limited orthogonal test swatches are studied. Thus, the precise relationships between each parameter and product quality features, as well the signal-to-noise ratio （SNR）, can be obtained. This can guide general technological design optimization.

Parameters Sensitivity Characteristics of Highly Integrated Valve-Controlled Cylinder Force Control System

Nowadays, a highly integrated valve?controlled cylinder(HIVC) is applied to drive the joints of legged robots. Although the adoption of HIVC has resulted in high?performance robot control, the hydraulic force system still has problems, such as strong nonlinearity, and time?varying parameters. This makes HIVC force control very diffcult and complex. How to improve the control performance of the HIVC force control system and find the influence rule of the system parameters on the control performance is very significant. Firstly, the mathematical model of HIVC force control system is established. Then the mathematical expression for parameter sensitivity matrix is obtained by applying matrix sensitivity analysis(PSM). Then, aimed at the sinusoidal response under(three factors and three levels) working conditions, the simulation and the experiment are conducted. While the error between the simulation and experiment can’t be avoided. Therefore, combined with the range analysis, the error in the two performance indexes of sinusoidal response under the whole working condition is analyzed. Besides, the sensitivity variation pattern for each system parameter under the whole working condition is figured out. Then the two sensitivity indexes for the three system parameters, which are supply pressure, proportional gain and initial displacement of piston, are proved experimentally. The proposed method significantly reveals the sensitivity characteristics of HIVC force control system, which can make the contribution to improve the control performance.

Study on l uidity of squeeze cast AZ91D magnesium alloy with dif erent wall thicknesses

Rectangular cross-section specimens with different section thicknesses were prepared to study the infl uences of pouring temperature, mould temperature and squeeze velocity on the fl uidity of squeeze cast AZ91D magnesium alloy by means of orthogonal test design method. The results show that pouring temperature, mould temperature and squeeze velocity can significantly affect the fluidity of magnesium alloy specimens with wall thickness no more than 4 mm, and the pouring temperature is the most infl uential factor on the fl uidity of specimens with wall thickness of 1, 2 and 3 mm, while mould temperature is the one for specimens with wall thickness of 4 mm. Increasing pouring temperature between 700 °C and 750 °C is benefi cial to the fl uidity of AZ91D magnesium alloy, and increasing mould temperature signifi cantly enhances the fi lling ability of thick(3 and 4 mm) section castings. The fl uidity of squeeze cast magnesium alloy increases with the increase of wall thickness. It is not recommended to produce magnesium alloy casting with wall thickness of smaller than 3 mm by squeeze cast process due to the poor fl uidity. The software DPS was used to generate the regression model, and linear regression equations of the fl uidity of squeeze cast AZ91D with different wall thicknesses are obtained using the test results.

Study on influencing factors of Baosteel’s swirl-jet sintering FGD technology

This paper introduced the research background and technical features of Baosteel＇ s sintering flue gas desulfurization （FGD）. It was also named swirl-jet-absorbing wet limestone-gypsum sintering FGD technology. By means of industrial online pilot plants, through continuous running and orthogonal tests, the effects of various influencing factors on SO2 removal efficiency of Baosteel sintering flue gas desulgurization （BSFGD） were studied carefully. The results indicate that the slurry pH value,temperature （T） and flow rate （Q） of inlet flue gas,liquid level （H） in the absorber and flue gas jet velocity （V） are the main influencing factors. Furthermore, when pH is between 5.0 and 5.5, H is between 4.2 m and 4.3 m, Q is 43 000 m3/h, T is below 65℃ and V is between 20 m/s and 28 m/s, the best desulfurization efficiency can be available.

Research on a processing model of CMP 6H-SiC(0001) single crystal wafer

Firstly, this paper presents an orthogonal test of six factors and five levels, called the chemical mechanical polishing （CMP） process parameters experiment, for determining the best process parameters and ranking the influencing factors from primary to secondary. The three most important factors are the polishing pressure, the polishing liquid concentration and the relative velocity ratio of polishing disk to polishing carrier. Then, based on this analysis, the three factors and three levels of the quadratic orthogonal regression test are put forward. A math- ematical model impacting the surface roughness has also been set up. Finally, this work has achieved a polished wafer, whose material removal rate （MRR） is in the range of 70-90 nm/h and the surface roughness （Ra） is between 0.3 nm and 0.5 nm.
