The Weibull distribution is known to describe the life data accurately,and the Weibayes method (developed from Bayesian method) expands on the experiential data in the small sample analysis of fatigue life in aeroengine.

文摘This paper develops a five degrees of freedom(5-DOF) model for aeroengine spindle dual-rotor system dynamic analysis.In this system,the dual rotors are supported on two angular contact ball bearings and two deep groove ball bearings,one of the latter-mentioned bearings works as the inter-shaft bearing.Driven by respective motors,the dual rotors have different co-rotating speeds.The proposed model mathematically formulates the nonlinear displacements,elastic deflections and contact forces of bearings with consideration of 5-DOF and coupling of dual rotors.The nonlinear equations of motions of dual rotors with 5-DOF are solved using Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg algorithm.In order to investigate the effect of the introduced 5-DOF and nonlinear dy-namic bearing model,we compare the proposed model with two models:the 3-DOF model of this system only considering three translational degrees of freedom(Gupta,1993,rotational freedom is neglected);the 5-DOF model where the deep groove ball bearings are simplified as linear elastic spring(Guskov,2007).The simulation results verify Gupta's prediction(1993) and show that the rotational freedom of rotors and nonlinear dynamic model of bearings have great effect on the system dynamic simula-tion.The quantitative results are given as well.

文摘Because of several advantages, such as no tool wear, independence on the mechanical properties of the material, and high machining efficiency, electrochemical machining(ECM) has become a viable method for machining components in numerous industrial applications, particularly in the manufacture of typical aero-engine components with complex structures fabricated from materials that are difficult to cut. This paper highlights the current developments, new trends, and technological advances of key factors of ECM, such as electrochemical dissolution characteristics of novel difficult to cut materials which are often used in aero-engine, numerical simulation of electrochemical process, design for the complex profile and structure of cathode tool, flow field simulation and design for uniform electrolyte flow, and innovation of electrochemical machining or hybrid methods which reflect the state of the art in academic and industrial research on electrochemical machining in aero-engine manufacturing.
