GRADE-LIFE PROGNOSTIC MODEL OF AIRCRAFT ENGINE BEARING

Research on practical and verifiable prediction methods for the service life of bearings plays a critical role in improving the reliability and safety of aircraft engines. The concept of grade-life （GL） is introduced to de- scribe the service life of bearings. A GL prognostic model for aircraft engine bearings is proposed based on sup- port vector machine （SVM） and fuzzy logic inference. Firstly, the mathematical model is discussed to predict the physics-based GL （PGL）. Then, the diagnostic estimation model based on SVM is presented in detail to predict the empirical GL （EPL）. Thirdly, a fuzzy logic inference is adopted to fuse two GL predicted results. Finally, the GL prognostic model is verified by the run-to-failure data acquired from an accelerated life test of an aircraft bearing. The results show that the model provides a more practical and reliable prediction for the service life of bearings.

Estimation of the Forces on Rubbing Rotor-Bearing System

It*ss very important to identify the load on rotor bearing system. Based on load identification in time domain, a new method combined with transfer matrix method is applied in rubbing rotor bearing system to estimate the force on rubbing rotor for the first time. Avoiding calculating the modal parameters, the outside excitation force on multi point and the distribute of internal forces on rubbing rotor bearing system can be identified by this way at the same time. Finally, the simulation is made on partial lateral rubbing rotor bearing system. For the faulty of rotor/stator rub, the point where rubbing occurs and the change of impact forces can be detected by this method in order to improve the accuracy of rotor/stator rub faulty diagnosis.

Dynamic characteristics of high speed angular-contact ceramic ball bearing

The dynamic characteristics of a high speed angular-contact ceramic ball bearing are studied and compared with that of the steel ball bearing. According to rolling bearing analysis theory, the bearing dynamic equations are established and are solved based on Hook-Jeeves's optimization theory on the computer. The results show that the bearing dynamic characteristics mainly depend on the rotational speed and ball material property at high speed. The bearing stiffness, initially decreases obviously and then increases with the increase of rotational speed. The ceramic ball bearing gains significant advantages over the steel ball bearing in high speed applications, such as lower contact stress, smaller deformation, less altering amount of contact angle, decreasing extent of variation of axial and radial stiffness and higher performance stability.

THERMOHYDRODYNAMIC LUBRICATION ANALYSIS ON EQUILIBRIUM POSITION AND DYNAMIC COEFFICIENT OF JOURNAL BEARING

The finite element method （FEM） is introduced to calculate the oil film pressure and temperature distribution of a journal bearing. The perturbation is performed directly on the finite element equation. Consequently, the Jacobian matrices of the oil film forces are concisely obtained. The equilibrium position of the bearing with a given static load is found by the Newton-Raphson method. As byproducts, dynamic coefficients are obtained simultaneously without any extra computing time. From the numerical results, it is concluded that the effects of film temperature on stiffness coefficients are bigger than those on damping coefficients. With the increase of rotational speed, the load capacity and the stiffness coefficients of the journal bearing are increased when the eccentricity is small, while decreased when the eccentricity is big.

REDUCING VIBRATION WITH FRICTION-DAMPING IN HIGH-SPEED ROTOR SYSTEM

To reduce the excessive vibration of a high-speed rotor system at the critical speed, a friction damper with a flexible support structure is introduced. The mechanism of vibration reduction and support characteristics are analyzed and a friction damper is designed. The effect on an unbalanced response is studied. Results show that the stiffness factor and the friction-damping factor of the damper are related to the cone angle and the friction factor of the inner-ring when adopting a proper structure. By changing these parameters and the Z-directional stiffness of the outer-ring, the stiffness and the damping characteristic of the damper can be varied. Introducing a friction damper into the support can reduce the stiffness and increase the damping of the support, thus decreasing the critical speed to avoid the operating speed, suppress the resonant response of a rotor system, and attenuate vibration forces to the outside.

Dynamic Simulation Study of Friction and Lubrication on ICE Bearings

Friction and lubrication simulation analysis of internal combustion engine bearings are studied. A series of software implementary precepts for mathematical modeling, to analytic calculating and realizing simulation outcome are brought forward. As a dynamic simulating technique is introduced into the process of engine bearing design, simulation models of the oil film are built and the emulational analysis of the shaft center track is carried out. A software program package “Engine Bearing Friction and Lubrication Dynamic Simulation System” is developed to realize the real time simulation of the working status of bearing during the design process. Through developing virtualized products, the defects of the product design can be found in time and improve the products at once. Thus the purpose of predicting and controlling the cost, quality and design period of the products can be achieved.

COMPENSATION CONTROL OF REAL-TIME UNBALANCE FORCE FOR ACTIVE MAGNETIC BEARING SYSTEM

Aiming at the stability and others properties of active magnetic bearing （AMB） system influenced by the periodic unbalance stimulation synchronous with rotor rotational speed, a new real-time adaptive feed-forward unbalance force compensation scheme is proposed based on variable step-size least mean square（LMS） algorithm as the feed-forward compensation controller. The controller can provide some suitable sinusoidal signals to com- pensate the feedback unbalance response signals synchronous with the rotary frequency, then reduce the fluctua- tion of the control currents and weaken the active control of AMB system. The variable step-size proportional to the rotational frequency is deduced by analyzing the principle of normal LMS algorithm and its deficiency in the application of real-time filtering of AMB system. Experimental results show that the new method can implement real-time unbalance force compensation in a wide frequency band, reduce the effect of unbalance stimulant force on the housing of AMB system, and provide convenience to improve rotational speed.

A fatigue life prediction method of rolling bearing under elliptical contact elastohydrodynamic lubrication

In order to more accurately predict the contact fatigue life of rolling bearing, a prediction method of fatigue life of rolling bearing is proposed based on elastohydrodynamic lubrication （EHL）, the 3-paameter Weibull distribution ad fatigue strength. First,the contact stress considering elliptical EHL is obtained by mapping film pressure onto the Hertz zone. Then,the basic strength model of rolling bearing based on the 3-parameter Weibull distribution is deduced by the series connection reliability theory. Considering the effect of the type of stress, variation of shape and fuctuation of load, the mathematical models of the 尸 -tS-TV curve of the minimum life and the characteristic life for rolling bearing are established, respectively, and thus the prediction model of fatigue life of rolling bearing based on the 3-paameter Weibull distribution and fatigue strength is further deduced. Finally, the contact fatigue life obtained by the proposed method ad the latest international standard （IS0281： 2007） about the fatigue life prediction of rolling bearing are compared with those obtained by the statistical method. Results show that the proposed prediction method is effective and its relative error is smaier than that of the latest international standard （IS0281： 2007） with reliability R 〉 0. 93.

Study on Adaptive Shape Optimization

Aim To introduce a new method of adaptive shape optimization (ASOP) based on three-dimensional structure boundary strength and optimize an engine bearing cap with the method. Methods Using the normal substance's property of thermal expansion and cooling shrinkage,the load which is proportional to the difference between the nodes' stress and their respective objective stress were applied to the corresponding variable nodes on the boundary.The thermal load made the nodes whose stress is greater than their objective stress expand along the boundary's normal direction and the nodes whose stress is less than objec- tive stress shrink in the opposite direction , This process would repeat until the stress on the boundary nodes was converge to the objective stress. Results The satisfied results have been obtained when optimizing an engine bearing cap.The mass of the bearing cap is reduced to 55 percent of the total. Conclusion ASOP is an efficient,practical and reliable method which is suitable for optimizing the shape of the continuous structures.

Analysis of dynamic characteristics of self-aligning ball bearing

A dynamics model of the self-aligning ball bearing is proposed based on the Jones-Harris method （JHM）, and a computer program is developed to solve the equations by using the Newton-Raphson method. A parametric analysis of the centrifugal force and the gyroscopic moment, the contact loads, the contact angles, the radial deformation and the radial stiffness is carried out. The analytical results show that the applied loads and the rotational speed are two main factors that can influence the distributions of the contact loads and values of the contact angles. The centrifugal force and the gyroscopic moment increase with the increase in the rotational speed, resulting in the decrease of the inner raceway contact load and the increase of the outer raceway contact load. The outer raceway contact angle increases under the centrifugal force; on the contrary, the inner raceway contact angle decreases. Furthermore, the differences between the inner and the outer contact angles increase with the increase in the rotational speed. The higher rotational speed results in the decrease in radial stiffness for the self-aligning ball bearing, and the raceway curvature coefficient, to some extent, also influences the radial stiffness.

Improved finite difference method for pressure distribution of aerostatic bearing

An improved finite difference method （FDM）is described to solve existing problems such as low efficiency and poor convergence performance in the traditional method adopted to derive the pressure distribution of aerostatic bearings. A detailed theoretical analysis of the pressure distribution of the orifice-compensated aerostatic journal bearing is presented. The nonlinear dimensionless Reynolds equation of the aerostatic journal bearing is solved by the finite difference method. Based on the principle of flow equilibrium, a new iterative algorithm named the variable step size successive approximation method is presented to adjust the pressure at the orifice in the iterative process and enhance the efficiency and convergence performance of the algorithm. A general program is developed to analyze the pressure distribution of the aerostatic journal bearing by Matlab tool. The results show that the improved finite difference method is highly effective, reliable, stable, and convergent. Even when very thin gas film thicknesses （less than 2 Win）are considered, the improved calculation method still yields a result and converges fast.

EFFECTS OF MANUFACTURING ERRORS ON GAS LUBRICATED JOURNAL BEARING WITH COMPLIANT SURFACE

A theoretical study has been performed to investigate the influence of manufacturing errors on the bearing housing of a gas lubricated journal bearing with compliant surface I in particular on the bearing load capacity. A gas film thickness distribution is presented, in which errors o f both circumferential and axial bearing housing are considered. The influence of the errors on bearing performance is compared between rigid and compliant surface bearings. It was shown that the compliant surface bearings are less sensitive to the manufacturing errors than the rigid surface bearings. Thelefore, the cost of compliant surface bearing could be reduced by setting a larger manufacturing error tolerance.

Bearing capacity of foundation on slope determined by energy dissipation method and model experiments

To determine the ultimate bearing capacity of foundations on sloping ground surface in practice, energy dissipation method was used to formulate the beating capacity as programming problem, and full-scale model experiments were investigated to analyze the performance of the soil slopes loaded by a strip footing in laboratory. The soil failure is governed by a linear Mohr-Coulomb yield criterion, and soil deformation follows an associated flow rule. Based on the energy dissipation method of plastic mechanics, a multi-wedge translational failure mechanism was employed to obtain the three bearing capacity factors related to cohesion, equivalent surcharge load and the unit gravity for various slope inclination angles. Numerical results were compared with those of the published solutions using finite element method and those of model experiments. The bearing capacity factors were presented in the form of design charts for practical use in engineering. The results show that limit analysis solutions approximate to those of model tests, and that the energy dissipation method is effective to estimate bearing capacity of soil slope.

Bending stress of rolling element in elastic composite cylindrical roller bearing

A new structure design method of elastic composite cylindrical roller bearing is proposed, in which PTFE is embedded into a hollow cylindrical rolling element, according to the principle of creative combinations and through innovation research on cylindrical roller bearing structure. In order to systematically investigate the inner wall bending stress of the rolling element in elastic composite cylindrical roller bearing, finite element analysis on different elastic composite cylindrical rolling elements was conducted. The results show that, the bending stress of the elastic composite cylindrical rolling increases along with the increase of hollowness with the same filling material. The bending stress of the elastic composite cylindrical rolling element decreases along with the increase of the elasticity modulus of the material under the same physical dimension. Under the same load, on hollow cylindrical rolling element, the maximum bending tensile stress values of the elastic composite cylindrical rolling element after material filling at 0° and 180° are 8.2% and 9.5%, respectively, lower than those of the deep cavity hollow cylindrical rolling element. In addition, the maximum bending-compressive stress value at 90° is decreased by 6.1%.

Entrance Effect on Load Capacity of Orifice Compensated Aerostatic Bearing with Feeding Pocket

The current research of the aerostatic thrust bearing mainly focuses on the porous material bearing and inherent compensated air bearing, which aims at obtaining small physical dimension and large load capacity. Although porous material bearing appears larger load capacity, materials anisotropy itself and void content distortion caused in heat-treating, and machining processes add greater complexity to internal flow transfer process. Inherent compensated air bearing has the advantages of simple structure and good stability, but its load capacity and static stiffness is not worth somewhat. In this paper, based on hydrostatic lubrication theory, finite volume method is presented for taking entrance effects into account in computing pressure distribution, load capacity and mass flow rates of circular aerostatic thrust bearings. Technical analysis, numerical simulations and laboratory demonstration tests of influence of pocket diameter and pocket depth on loading capacity of aerostatic thrust bearing are carried out on simple orifice compensated air bearings with feeding pockets. The static parameters, such as air consumption and pressure distributions, are measured as a function of supply pressure and air gap height for several different orifices and pockets size. Entrance effects are described in term of typical throttling types, and the effect of pocket diameter and pocket depth on load capacity is systematically described respectively. The proposed research results uncover the causation of throttling action of the orifice compensated air bearing with feed pocket and further develop and improve the design theory of air bearing.
