SIMULATION IN THERMAL DESIGN FOR ELECTRONIC CONTROL UNIT OF ELECTRONIC UNIT PUMP

The high working junction temperature of power component is the most common reason of its failure. So the thermal design is of vital importance in electronic control unit （ECU） design. By means of circuit simulation, the thermal design of ECU for electronic unit pump （EUP） fuel system is applied. The power dissipation model of each power component in the ECU is created and simulated. According to the analyses of simulation results, the factors which affect the power dissipation of components are analyzed. Then the ways for reducing the power dissipation of power components are carried out. The power dissipation of power components at different engine state is calculated and analyzed. The maximal power dissipation of each power component in all possible engine state is also carried out based on these simulations. A cooling system is designed based on these studies. The tests show that the maximum total power dissipation of ECU drops from 43.2 W to 33.84 W after these simulations and optimizations. These applications of simulations in thermal design of ECU can greatly increase the quality of the design, save the design cost and shorten design time

Recent Advances in Reconfigurable Electromagnetic Surfaces:Engineering Design,Full-Wave Analysis,and Large-Scale Optimization

This paper presents a comprehensive review of recent advances in reconfigurable electromagnetic(EM)surfaces.The discussion is organized around three key aspects of reconfigurable EM surfaces:unit cell engineering design,full-wave numerical analysis,and large-scale optimization techniques.Numerous references are provided to facilitate further exploration of this compelling and timely subject.To address the above three key aspects,we conduct an extensive examination of the design process for metasurfaces in reconfigurable devices.This involves evaluating the design methodology of unit cells,EM simulation techniques tailored for highly complex structures,and innovative optimization methods suitable for scenarios with numerous variables.In scenarios featuring reconfigurability for real-time manipulation of EM waves to meet the requirements of emerging communication environments,the optimization cost function is defined with multiple variables,exhibiting intricate behavior in the design space.Consequently,it necessitates an optimization methodology capable of handling high-dimensional functions without getting trapped in local minima.Moreover,the intricate geometries of metasurface devices preclude analytical solutions,necessitating high-performance full-wave solvers capable of providing highly accurate simulations with minimal computational expense.Key concepts and details pertaining to the aforementioned design stages are presented in a unified manner,along with representative examples.

Joint device architecture algorithm codesign of the photonic neural processing unit

The photonic neural processing unit(PNPU)demonstrates ultrahigh inference speed with low energy consumption,and it has become a promising hardware artificial intelligence(AI)accelerator.However,the nonidealities of the photonic device and the peripheral circuit make the practical application much more complex.Rather than optimizing the photonic device,the architecture,and the algorithm individually,a joint device-architecture-algorithm codesign method is proposed to improve the accuracy,efficiency and robustness of the PNPU.First,a full-flow simulator for the PNPU is developed from the back end simulator to the high-level training framework;Second,the full system architecture and the complete photonic chip design enable the simulator to closely model the real system;Third,the nonidealities of the photonic chip are evaluated for the PNPU design.The average test accuracy exceeds 98%,and the computing power exceeds 100TOPS.

Determination of blast-induced ground vibration equations for rocks using mechanical and geological properties

In the recent decades, effects of blast loads on natural and man-made structures have gained considerable attention due to increase in threat from various man-made activities. Site-specific empirical relationships for calculation of blast-induced vibration parameters like peak particle velocity （PPV） and peak particle displacement （PPD） are commonly used for estimation of blast loads in design. However, these relation- ships are not able to consider the variation in rock parameters and uncertainty of in situ conditions. In this paper, a total of 1089 published blast data of various researchers in different rock sites have been collected and used to propose generalized empirical model for PPV by considering the effects of rock parameters like unit weight, rock quality designation （ROD）, geological strength index （GSI）, and uniaxial compressive strength （UCS）. The proposed PPV model has a good correlation coefficient and hence it can be directly used in prediction of blast-induced vibrations in rocks. Standard errors and coefficient of correlations of the predicted blast-induced vibration parameters are obtained with respect to the observed field data. The proposed empirical model for PPV has also been compared with the empirical models available for blast vibrations predictions given by other researchers and found to be in good agreement with specific cases.

Unit Cell Modelling of Auxetic Structure

Auxetic material structures exhibit a negative Poisson ratio. The structure expands in the axial and transverse directions under tensile loading and vice versa under compression loading. Many fabricated designs for auxetic materials exist such as re-entrant hexagonal, chiral, and arrowhead geometries. This paper studies the unit cell of the re-entrant hexagonal geometry to understand how changing the internal angle and fillet radius of the structure affects the Poisson’s ratio. The material chosen for this study is acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) due to its availability and frequent use in additive manufacturing. The study was based on finite element analysis. It is observed that the direction of load applied to the unit cell affects the unit cell strain, Poisson’s ratio, and maximum load capacity before failure responses. It is noticed that the re-entrant cell starts by showing a standard non-auxetic behavior until it reaches a specific axial strain value. A quadratic correlation is identified between axial and transverse strain. Designing an auxetic structure starts with understanding the behavior of a unit cell structure. The auxetic structure design is a complex process that requires a compromise between auxetic property to be achieved and load capacity via avoiding stress concentration zones.

Experimental study on performance of pneumatic seeding system

The purpose of this study was to promote the development of large-scale agricultural machines in China and meet the demand of air seeder localization.This study investigated the relationship between the working parameters and the performance of pneumatic seeding system,Cangmai 6004 wheat seed was used.A test platform for pneumatic seeding systems was developed,and then a series of experiments were performed based on the quadratic general rotary unitized design and response surface methodology(RSM).The seeding rate and the air flow rate were selected as affecting factors,coefficient of variation(CV)of evenness of feeding rate between rows and CV of seeding stability of total rows were assigned as the test indexes.Regression models between factors and indexes were established,and finally,an optimal equation based on this pneumatic seeding system were established as well,which can determine the proper air flow rate once the seeding rate was set based on the practical agronomic requirements.For example,when the seeding rate is set as 250 kg/hm^(2),the proper air flow rate of 7.53 m3/min can be obtained.The verification experiment results showed that the predicted working parameters obtained by RSM were feasible,which might provide a theoretical basis for further research of pneumatic seed metering systems.

Optimization of working parameters for 3MGY-200 axial air-assisted sprayer in kiwifruit orchards

Axial air-assisted sprayers can distribute pesticides efficiently in kiwifruit orchards.Because of improper parameter settings,most sprayers deliver either too much or too little pesticide.To identify appropriate sprayer parameters for kiwifruit trees,the vertical distribution profiles of the applied liquid spray were examined in this study.The effects of spray fan speed(SFS),spray pressure(SP)and spray distance(SD)on the distributions of the sprayed liquid in the vertical profiles were studied.Combined actions of the above parameters were systematically analysed using the quadratic general rotary design test method.Regression equations for the spray liquid distributions and working factors are presented.Field confirmation experiments were carried out to optimize the parameters.Data analysis showed that the optional sprayer working parameters are those of Group 3,with an SFS equal to 1900 r/min and SP equal to 3.25 MPa.The results of this study provide a reference for future applications of this type of axial air-assisted sprayer in kiwifruit orchards.
