The natural period of the anemometer tower is discussed through frequency domain analysis. The influence of a single factor, such as towing point position, wave height, wave direction and wave period, on towing stability is discussed through time domain analysis. At the same time, the towing stability under the condition of various combinations of many factors is analyzed based on the measured data of the target area. Computer simulation results show that the intact stability is preferable and the damage stability is sufficient under the condition of plenty of subdivisions. Within the scope of the buoyancy tank foundation,the higher the towing point position is, the better the stability is. Wave height has a great impact on the motion amplitude of buoyancy tank foundation, but the effect on the acceleration is not obvious; wave period has a great impact on the acceleration, while the effect on the motion amplitude is not obvious; following-waves towing is more conducive to safety than atry.展开更多

In this work, the effects of strain rate and temperature on the structural evolution of interface dislocation network in Ni-based superalloys are studied by molecular dynamics simulations. The correlation between the evolution of dislocation network and tensile properties is also explored. The results indicate that the dislocation network shows different degrees of deformation and damage at various strain rates and temperatures. The ),' rafting depends on the damage structure of dislocation network at various strain rates and tem- peratures. Moreover, the tensile properties of interface in Ni-based superalloys are closely related to the evolution of disloca- tion network and dislocation motion mechanisms.展开更多

A ray tracing method was used to deal with the complex heat radiation transfer. The rnicrostructure evolution was simulated based on the Modified Cellular Automaton method, which was coupled with three-dimensional nested macro and micro grids. Experi- ments for Ni-based superalloy turbine wheel investment casting were carried out, which showed a good correspondence with the simulated results. It is indicated that the proposed model is able to predict the microstructure of the casting precisely, which provides a tool for the optimizing process.展开更多
