Using the maximum heights of the caving zone and the water-conducting fractured zone as test indices the modulus of elasticity,the Poisson ratio,cohesion and tension strength as test factors and different values of reduction enhancement factors as test levels,an orthogonal test was designed to obtain an optimum simulation scheme.From the analysis of different values of reduction enhancement factors which affect the test indices,an optimum factor combination for modification of parameters could be inferred.By using modified parameters in our numerical simulation,the maximum heights of the caving zone and the water-conducting fractured zone in the extensive Xiyi area were determined as 15.06 m and 36.92 m.These values were almost the same as those obtained by similar material simulation（8.5 m and 37.0 m）and empirical prediction（8.4 m and 34.4 m）.These results indicate that the modification of parameters is a rational method.展开更多

The influence of four important process parameters, namely,punch velocity, blank holder force(BHF), friction coefficient and initial forming temperature of blank on drawing characteristics(i.e.minimum thickness and thickness deviation) was investigated with the help of design of experiments(DOE), analysis of variance(ANOVA) and analysis of mean(ANOM). Based on the results of ANOVA, it is shown that the blank holder force has the greatest influence on minimum thickness. The importance of punch velocity for thickness deviation is 44.35% followed by BHF of 24.88%,friction coefficient of 15.77% and initial forming temperature of blank of 14.995%. After determining the significance of each factor on forming characteristics, how the individual parameter affects characteristics was further analyzed by ANOM.展开更多

Nine trials were performed at different drum rotation speeds （80, 100, and 120 r/min） and different haulage speeds （1.5, 2.0, and 2.5 m/min） in an orthogonal test design. Loaded coal quantity and cutting power of the drum were the responses measured under the dif- ferent conditions. The effect of the parameters was determined by means of the extreme difference method. The significance of the effects was determined by analysis of variance. The results indicate that the effect from changes in the helical vane on loading performance of the drum is the largest in magnitude. The haulage speed has the least affect on loading performance. The helical angle has the least affect on cutting power of the drum. Haulage speed has the largest affect on the cutting power of the drum. 2011 Published by Elsevier B.V. on behalf of China University of Mining ＆ Technology.展开更多

The optimization of concave die parameters based on orthogonal test is proposed to explore the relationship between self-pierce riveted joint quality and die parameters. There are nine independent die parameter factors in orthogonal test and each factor has 4 levels. In order to evaluate the interlock and neck thickness, we carry out numerical simulations by the software DEFORM-2D. Then, the primary and secondary factors that affect the joint quality have been found out by means of range analysis. Finally, an optimization scheme is brought forward to design concave die in SPR process, which indicates that the joint has higher quality than that of former orthogonal tests.This work can be extended by a detailed mechanical and fatigue analysis for the joint quality of SPR process.展开更多

The sensitivity of the parameters in the Duncan and Chang's E-B model is analyzed using the orthogonal test design. The case study shows that the parameters φ0, K, Rf, and Kb are sensitive to the deformation of the rock-fill dam and the inversion analysis for these parameters is performed by the HS-BPNN algorithm. Compared with the traditional BPNN, the HS-BPNN algorithm exhibits the advantages of high convergence precision, fast convergence rate, and strong stability.展开更多
