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.展开更多

Packed soil columns of a garden soil (CK) and the soils after respectively receiving 2% pig manure (PM), chicken manure (CM), and commercial organic manure (OM) were leached with 0.05 mol L^-1 Ca(NO3)2 and 0.01 mol L 1 EDTA solutions. The leachate EC (electric conductivity) values gradually increased at the beginning and then reached a stable value when the soil columns were leached with 0.05 mol L^-1 Ca(NO3)2 solution. The leachate EC values showed a peak-shape when leached with 0.01 mol L^-1 EDTA solution. In all the soil columns, the pH values of the leachates decreased with increase of displacement volumes when the Ca(NO3)2 solution was used. The total amounts of Cu and Zn eluted from the four soil columns were significantly correlated with the extracted soil Cu and Zn concentrations by 1.0 mol L^-1 NH4NO3, but were not correlated with the leachate dissolved organic carbon (DOC) contents. The Zn concentration in the leachate of the PM-treated soil column with 0.05 mol L^-1 Ca(NO3)2 solution was above the Quality Standard III for Ground Water of China (GB/T 14848-93, Zn 〈 1.0 mg L^-1). When compared with 0.05 mol L^-1 Ca(NO3)2, the EDTA solution significantly accelerated Cu and Zn elutions in the manure-treated columns. This suggested that applying poultry and livestock manures from intensive farming to farmland might pose a threat to the groundwater quality.展开更多

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.展开更多

The structures of the two NdDDPs were determined using IR and XRD. Properties of anti-wear and friction-reducing of the two additives were investigated with four ball experiment and the commercial anti-wear additive ZDDP was selected as control. The elemental analysis of the wear scars after 10 s friction at low stress were investigated by EDXA (Energy Dispersion Analysis of X-ray). Primary results showed that the NdDDPs possess better lubrication ability than ZDDP. This might mainly be contributed to the formation of a boundary film containing Nd2O3, FeS and sulphate, phosphate, organo-sulfide, etc., and a neodymium-rich diffused layer which changes the crystal structure of the surface of friction materials.展开更多

The performance of the said additive was investigated by engine bench test, and was compared to the performance of similar domestic and imported additives. The deterioration of lube oils containing additives over different time intervals was studied by means of plasma spectrometry and mass spectrometry, and the effect of additive package on engine power was also studied. Test results have revealed that the synthetic additive package can provide good anti-wear performance to the tribo-pairs. In particular, after 300 hour application of the said additive package the connection rod shaft and copper sleeve showed 'zero wear' to achieve the in situ dynamic repairing of tribo-pairs. Application of the said synthetic additive can effectively improve the engine power performance and extend the engine service life.展开更多

Based on topographical information of each grid cell extracted fi'om the digital elevation model (DEM) and Green-Ampt infiltration method, the Grid-GA model takes into consideration the redistribution of water content, and consists of vegetation and root interception, evapotranspiration, runoff generation via the excess infiltration mechanism, runoff concentration, and flow routing. The downslope redis- tribution of soil moisture is explicitly calculated on a grid basis, and water exchange among grids within runoff routing along the river drainage networks is taken into consideration. The proposed model and Xin'anjiang model were ap- plied to the upper Lushi basin in the Luohe River, a tributary of the Yellow River, with an area of 4 716 km2 for flood simulation. Results show that both models perform well in flood simulation and can be used for flood forecasting in semi-humid and semi-arid region.展开更多
