Effect of prestressed ultrasonic peen forming parameters on bending curvature and spherical deformation of plate

The elastic prestressed ultrasonic peen forming(UPF)was adopted in order to solve problems of insufficient bending deformation and large spherical deformation of plate during free UPF.The theoretical analysis of prestressed UPF and the influence of elastic prebending moment on deformation were analyzed.Spherical deformation coefficient was defined to quantificationally describe the spherical deformation.Experiments were conducted to compare the differences between free UPF and prestressed UPF processes and the effects of processing parameters on bending curvature and spherical deformation coefficient were studied.The results show that peening trajectory in chordwise direction is beneficial to enlarging spanwise bending deformation and decreasing spherical deformation coefficient.Large prebending curvature is helpful to increase spanwise bending deformation and decrease chordwise deformation,thereby obviously decreasing spherical deformation coefficient.Large spanwise deformation can be obtained under large firing pin velocity,small plate thickness and small offset distance.Large firing pin velocity plays a positive role in decreasing spherical deformation,while plate thickness and offset distance have little effect on it.Above all,prebending curvature and peening trajectory are the most important factors during prestressed UPF process.This study provides guidance for parameters optimization of prestressed UPF for wing plate with large thickness.

Parallelization of spherical discontinuous deformation analysis(SDDA) for geotechnical problems based on cloud computing environment

The computational efficiency of the traditional serial spherical discontinuous deformation analysis(SDDA) program has limited its application in geotechnical engineering problems that need a large number of spheres. The cloud computing technology is used to parallel the SDDA program for the first time in this research. The most computationally intensive portions of the SDDA program, i.e., contact detection and matrix solution, are parallelized with proposed algorithms. The accuracy of the cloud-based parallel SDDA program(CB-PSDDA) is verified first. Further efficiency tests show that significant speedup can be obtained with an 8-server configuration and the computing scale can be up to several tens of thousands of particles. The cloud-based parallelized SDDA program increases its potential in applications of deformation and failure analysis of large-scale and realistic geotechnical engineering problems.

An improved three-dimensional spherical DDA model for simulating rock failure

In this paper, a discontinuous numerical model, namely SDDARF3D(three-dimensional spherical discontinuous deformation analysis for rock failure), is proposed for simulating the whole process of rock failure. Firstly, within the framework of the classical discontinuous deformation analysis(DDA) method, the formulation of three-dimensional spherical DDA(3D SDDA) is deduced; secondly, a bonding and cracking algorithm is constructed and the SDDARF3 D model is proposed; thirdly, corresponding VC++ calculation code is developed and some verification examples are calculated. The simulated results can intuitively reproduce the failure phenomena of rock mass, indicating that the proposed SDDARF3 D numerical model is correct and effective.

Nuclear longitudinal form factors for axially deformed charge distributions expanded by nonorthogonal basis functions

In this paper,the nuclear longitudinal form factors are systematically studied from the intrinsic charge multipoles.For axially deformed nuclei,two different types of density profiles are used to describe their charge distributions.For the same charge distributions expanded with different basis functions,the corresponding longitudinal form factors are derived and compared with each other.Results show the multipoles C_λ of longitudinal form factors are independent of the basis functions of charge distributions.Further numerical calculations of longitudinal form factors of^（12）C indicates that the C_0 multipole reflects the contributions of spherical components of all nonorthogonal basis functions.For deformed nuclei,their charge RMS radii can also be determined accurately by the C_0 measurement.The studies in this paper examine the model-independent properties of electron scattering,which are useful for interpreting electron scattering experiments on exotic deformed nuclei.
