Nevertheless, resource management in MG is much more complicated than that in other grid applications due to the geographically distributed manufacturing resources, which range from CAD, CAPP and CAE to various kinds of machine tools. With the interaction of manufacturing grid information service (MGIS, developed by ourselves) and globus resource allocation manager (GRAM, provided by GT3), a resource management framework is presented to perform the functions of resource encapsulation, registry, discovery and monitoring. Furthermore, the application architecture and an example are depicted to illustrate the utilization of the resource management system.展开更多

A CAPP software package is developed with three layer structures (the database, the Web server and the client server) to realize CAPP online services. In the CAPP software package, a new process planning method called the successive casebased reasoning is presented. Using the method, process planning procedures are divided into three layers (the process planning, the process procedure and the process step), which are treated with the successive process reasoning. Process planning rules can be regularly described due to the granularity-based rule classification. The CAPP software package combines CAPP software with online services. The process planning has the features of variant analogy and generative creation due to adopting the successive case-based reasoning, thus improving the universality and the practicability of the process planning.展开更多

The DYP of TC8 titanium alloy was characterized by quantifying the yield drop of the DYP (△σUL) and ending strain of flow oscillation (εOSC) based on the flow stress?strain curves, and then the effect of deformation parameters on the △σUL and εOSC values was analyzed. The results show that the △σUL and εOSC values increase with the increase of strain rate. The effect of deformation temperature on the ?σUL value depends on the strain rate. Finally, the transmission electron microscope (TEM) observation shows the evidence for the dynamic theory, which ascribes the DYP to the generation of mobile dislocation at the grain boundary. Meanwhile, the optical microscope (OM) observation shows that both the primary α grain and β grain become smaller with the increase of strain, which well interprets the effect of deformation parameters on the △σUL and εOSC values.展开更多

Two different yield criteria of von Mises and Hill'48 were applied in this model. Mechanical properties of AZ31 magnesium alloy used in the prediction were obtained by uniaxial tensile tests and the Fields-Backofen equation was incorporated in the analysis. In addition, experimental FLDs of AZ31 were acquired by conducting rigid die swell test at different temperatures to verify the prediction. It is demonstrated from a comparison between the predicted and the experimental FLDs at 473 K and 523 K that the predicted results are influenced by the type of yield criterion used in the calculation, especially at lower temperatures. Furthermore, a better agreement between the predicted results and experimental data for AZ31 magnesium alloy sheet at warm temperatures was obtained when Hill'48 yield criterion was applied.展开更多

In this paper, stochastic model to compete the probability that target penetrates the defended area along any flight path is established by the state analysis and statistical equilibrium analysis of stochastic service system theory. The simulated annealing algorithm is an enlightening random search method based on Monte Carlo recursion, and it can find global optimal solution by simulating annealing process. Combining stochastic model to compete the probability and simulated annealing algorithm, this paper establishes the method to solve problem quantitatively about combat configuration optimization of weapon systems. The calculated result shows that the perfect configuration for fire cells of the weapon is fast found by using this method, and this quantificational method for combat configuration is faster and more scientific than previous one based on principle via map fire field.展开更多

We present the main concepts and steps of the method. Queueing modeling and steady-state operational analysis techniques are also used for analytic modeling. Both simulation and analysis studies on the HT-7 data processing system indicate that in comparison with conventional time-shared systems,a client/server system can significantly reduce the completion time of raw data display,real-time data processing and data transfer in the online system,raise the workload capacity and reduce the average waiting time of the off-line system.展开更多

According to the fundamentals of image-based visual servoing(IBVS), the cerebellar model articulation controller (CMAC) neural network is inserted into thevisual servo control loop to implement the nonlinear mapping from the error signal in the imagespace to the control signal in the input space instead of the iterative adjustment and complicatedinverse solution of the image Jacobian. Simulation results show that the feature point can bepredicted efficiently using the Kalman filter and on-line supervised learning can be realized usingCMAC neural network; end-effector can track the target object very well.展开更多
