In order to realize the virtual maintenance process modeling based on Solidworks Composer, SolidWorks is used to model me main aircraft components in equal proportion and the traditional maintenance operations one by one interpretation and analysis. And then use the composer to repair the work into a three-dimensional human model to repair the three-dimensional related product model, so that visual effects and generate teaching videos. In this paper, the aileron actuator disassembly process as an example to verify the feasibility of the method. This can not only solve the previous training means a single and poor interaction can also be a full range of maintenance engineers to mobilize the vision and heating, but also a clear understanding of the various components of the composition, working principle, connection sequence and maintenance process.

Real-time interactive motion control of virtual human in virtual maintenance based on limited information

In order to provide a simple and efficient approach to perform the real-time interactive motion control of virtual human in virtual maintenance environment(VME),the motion control method of virtual human based on limited input information is proposed.With the space position tracking system with only one sensor the action sequences and motion models of virtual human,the human motions and hand actions in VME are driven by the sensor data in stages and in real time through the transmission condition control in the process of maintenance operation.And the input data and information is processed based on the method of Kalman filtering and wavelet transforming to improve the control effects.An experimental VME is also established to validate the control efficiency,and the experiment results show that the space motion control of virtual human in VME can be performed based on limited information with proposed control strategy.

Imperfect preventive maintenance for numerical control machine tools with log-linear virtual age process

Based on the log-linear virtual age process, an imperfect preventive maintenance policy for numerical control(NC)machine tools with random maintenance quality is proposed. The proposed model is a combination of the Kijima type virtual age model and the failure intensity adjustment model. Maintenance intervals of the proposed hybrid model are derived when the failure intensity increase factor and the restoration factor are both random variables with uniform distribution. The optimal maintenance policy in infinite time horizon is presented. A numerical example is given when the failures of NC machine tools are described by the log-linear process. Finally, a discussion is presented to show how the optimal results depend on the different cost parameters.

Virtual testability demonstration test has many advantages,such as low cost,high efficiency,low risk and few restrictions.It brings new requirements to the fault sample generation.A fault sample simulation approach for virtual testability demonstration test based on stochastic process theory is proposed.First,the similarities and differences of fault sample generation between physical testability demonstration test and virtual testability demonstration test are discussed.Second,it is pointed out that the fault occurrence process subject to perfect repair is renewal process.Third,the interarrival time distribution function of the next fault event is given.Steps and flowcharts of fault sample generation are introduced.The number of faults and their occurrence time are obtained by statistical simulation.Finally,experiments are carried out on a stable tracking platform.Because a variety of types of life distributions and maintenance modes are considered and some assumptions are removed,the sample size and structure of fault sample simulation results are more similar to the actual results and more reasonable.The proposed method can effectively guide the fault injection in virtual testability demonstration test.
