A novel variable topology design for a multi-flexible ejection mechanism

The airborne missile launch mechanism often subjects to significant deformations induced by the large ejection force during high-speed actuations in missile ejection process,leading to a substantial deviation of separation parameters from designed values that threats safety of the carrier.This study proposes a novel variable topology design for launch mechanism,achieved via a Prsmatic-Revolute-Revolute pair(PR-R)motion formed by the structural gap with a specific direction.It enables launch mechanism variability during missile ejection process and optimizes the ejection force given by the front and back ejection arms,and greatly optimizes the separation parameters during missile ejection.The kinetics simulation analysis is conducted under working conditions of the original ejection mechanism and the novel mechanism with variable topology design,respectively.The results show that the novel variable topology design is more befitting for the launch process in terms of system safety and controllability,effectively improving the separation posture,restraining the flexible effect of the mechanism,and fulfilling the effectiveness of the design value of multi-rigid body.

MULTI-FLEXIBLE SYSTEM DYNAMIC MODELING THEORY AND APPLICATION

The flexible body modeling theory was demonstrated. An example of modeling a kind of automobile’s front suspension as a multi-flexible system was shown. Finally, it shows that the simulation results of multi-flexible dynamic model more approach the road test data than those of multi-rigid dynamic model do. Thus, it is fully testified that using multi-flexible body theory to model is necessary and effective.

Dynamic Characteristic Study of Ball Screw Feed Drive Systems Based on Multi-flexible Body Model

A new ball screw dynamic model was developed under the adequate consideration of the interaction in the screw-nut assembly (not only the mutual-coupling factors but also the self-coupling factors) . Based on this model,the multi-flexible body (MFB)dynamic model of ball screw feed drive system was then founded in order to take full account of the influencing factor of system flexibility and study the dynamic behaviors of the whole mechanical transmissions. Moreover,the MFB based state space modeling was proposed by modal state space method, which extraced the eigenmodes of more dominant modes and applied them into an MFB state space model,and realized the integrated model of servo drives and MFB mechanical transmissions more effectively and efficiently. In conclusion,the comparisons between simulations and experimental results show: the stiffness formulation of the ball screw assembly derived above is a suitable method for achieving accurate MFB models of ball screw mechanical transmission systems,this proposed MFB model is valid,and the integrated model of ball screw feed drive system is accurate and reliable. All these provide the important approaches and guidelines for dynamic characteristic study and selection of control parameters in the machine tool design period.

Experimental study and numerical simulation of the impact of under-sleeper pads on the dynamic and static mechanical behavior of heavy-haul railway ballast track

Laying the under-sleeper pad(USP)is one of the effective measures commonly used to delay ballast degradation and reduce maintenance workload.To explore the impact of application of the USP on the dynamic and static mechanical behavior of the ballast track in the heavy-haul railway system,numerical simulation models of the ballast bed with USP and without USP are presented in this paper by using the discrete element method(DEM)-multi-flexible body dynamic(MFBD)coupling analysis method.The ballast bed support stiffness test and dynamic displacement tests were carried out on the actual operation of a heavy-haul railway line to verify the validity of the models.The results show that using the USP results in a 43.01%reduction in the ballast bed support stiffness and achieves a more uniform distribution of track loads on the sleepers.It effectively reduces the load borne by the sleeper directly under the wheel load,with a 7.89%reduction in the pressure on the sleeper.Furthermore,the laying of the USP changes the lateral resistance sharing ratio of the ballast bed,significantly reducing the stress level of the ballast bed under train loads,with an average stress reduction of 42.19 kPa.It also reduces the plastic displacement of ballast particles and lowers the peak value of rotational angular velocity by about 50%to 70%,which is conducive to slowing down ballast bed settlement deformation and reducing maintenance costs.In summary,laying the USP has a potential value in enhancing the stability and extending the lifespan of the ballast bed in heavy-haul railway systems.
