Modeling Method for Flexible Energy Behaviors in CNC Machining Systems

CNC machining systems are inevitably confronted with frequent changes in energy behaviors because they are widely used to perform various machining tasks. It is a challenge to understand and analyze the flexible energy behaviors in CNC machining systems. A method to model flexible energy behaviors in CNC machining systems based on hierarchical objected-oriented Petri net(HOONet) is proposed. The structure of the HOONet is constructed of a high-level model and detail models. The former is used to model operational states for CNC machining systems, and the latter is used to analyze the component models for operational states. The machining parameters having great impacts on energy behaviors in CNC machining systems are declared with the data dictionary in HOONet models. A case study based on a CNC lathe is presented to demonstrate the proposed modeling method. The results show that it is effective for modeling flexible energy behaviors and providing a fine-grained description to quantitatively analyze the energy consumption of CNC machining systems.

Two modeling methods of the root insert for wind turbine blade are presented,i.e.,the local mesh optimization method(LMOM)and the global modeling method(GMM).Based on the optimized mesh of the local model for the metal contact interface,LMOM is proposed to analyze the load path and stress distribution characteristics,while GMM is used to calculate and analyze the stress distribution characteristics of the resin layer established between the bushing and composite layers of root insert.To validate the GMM,a tension test is carried out.The result successfully shows that the shear strain expresses a similar strain distribution tendency with the GMM′s results.

Decoupling Conditions for Elasto-plastic Consolidation Question Based on Numerical Modeling Method

Elasto-plastic consolidation is one of the classic coupling questions in geomechanics. To solve this problem, an elasto-plastic constitutive model is derived based on the numerical modeling method. The model is applied to Blot＇s consolidation theory. Incremental governing partial differential equations are established using this method.

A New Sample-Selection and Modeling Method Based on Near-Infrared Spectroscopy and Its Industrial Application

Near-infrared( NIR) spectroscopy has been widely employed as a process analytical tool( PAT) in various fields; the most important reason for the use of this method is its ability to record spectra in real time to capture process properties. In quantitative online applications,the robustness of the established NIR model is often deteriorated by process condition variations,nonlinear of the properties or the high-dimensional of the NIR data set. To cope with such situation,a novel method based on principal component analysis( PCA) and artificial neural network( ANN) is proposed and a new sample-selection method is mentioned. The advantage of the presented approach is that it can select proper calibration samples and establish robust model effectively. The performance of the method was tested on a spectroscopic data set from a refinery process. Compared with traditional partial leastsquares( PLS),principal component regression( PCR) and several other modeling methods, the proposed approach was found to achieve good accuracy in the prediction of gasoline properties. An application of the proposed method is also reported.

Mechanical response of a tunnel subjected to strike-slip faulting processes,based on a multi-scale modeling method

The stick-slip action of strike-slip faults poses a significant threat to the safety and stability of underground structures.In this study,the north-east area of the Longmenshan fault,Sichuan,provides the geological background;the rheological characteristics of the crustal lithosphere and the nonlinear interactions between plates are described by Burger’s viscoelastic constitutive model and the friction constitutive model,respectively.A large-scale global numerical model for plate squeezing analysis is established,and the seemingly periodic stick-slip action of faults at different crust depths is simulated.For a second model at a smaller scale,a local finite element model(sub-model),the time history of displacement at a ground level location on the Longmenshan fault plane in a stick-slip action is considered as the displacement loading.The integration of these models,creating a multi-scale modeling method,is used to evaluate the crack propagation and mechanical response of a tunnel subjected to strike-slip faulting.The determinations of the recurrence interval of stick-slip action and the cracking characteristics of the tunnel are in substantial agreement with the previous field investigation and experimental results,validating the multi-scale modeling method.It can be concluded that,regardless of stratum stiffness,initial cracks first occur at the inverted arch of the tunnel in the footwall,on the squeezed side under strike-slip faulting.The smaller the stratum stiffness is,the smaller the included angle between the crack expansion and longitudinal direction of the tunnel,and the more extensive the crack expansion range.For the tunnel in a high stiffness stratum,both shear and bending failures occur on the lining under strike-slip faulting,while for that in the low stiffness stratum,only bending failure occurs on the lining.

Study of the influence of added water and contained water on structural vibrations and acoustic radiation using different dynamic modeling methods

Using the 3-D sono-elasticity method and the simplified nonstructural mass method,the different dynamic modeling methods of the added water for a single-hull structure are first analyzed in this study.Then,the complete internal flow field method and the simplified nonstructural mass method of the contained water between the double hulls of a double-hull structure are investigated.Finally,based on the calculation and analysis under multiple conditions,a reasonable and simplified dynamic modeling method of added water and contained water is obtained.It is indicated that the mass of added water for a single-hull structure is closely related to the mass of total underwater displacement of the structure.With the increase in the analysis frequency,the mass of added water is characterized by first decreasing rapidly and then decreasing gradually and smoothly.The contained water between the double hulls is distributed to the pressure hull and the light shell based on the ratio of the impedances of the double hulls.The results can basically reflect the acoustic radiation characteristics of the double-hull structure.

Research on modeling method of continuous spectrum water quality online detection based on random forest

It's common to use the method of continuous spectroscopy in water quality testing. But there're some problems with it. For example, the scanning results have a large number of nonlinear signals, and the covariance between variables is serious, which can lead to a decrease in the model prediction accuracy. In this paper, the standard solutions of nitrate nitrogen(NO_(3)-N) and nitrite nitrogen(NO_(2)-N) were used as the subject to be tested, and the data of the scanned waves and absorbance were obtained by use of spectral detector. The data were processed by noise reduction first and then the random forest(RF) algorithm was adopted to establish the regression relationship between concentration and absorbance. For comparison, partial least squares(PLS) and support vector machine(SVM) algorithm models were also established. For the same given data, the three reverse models can make the projection of the concentration respectively. The experimental results show that the RF algorithm predicts NO_(2)-N concentrations significantly better than the SVM algorithm and PLS algorithm. This proves that the RF algorithm has good prediction ability in spectral water quality detection because of its high model accuracy and better adaptability, which could be a reference for similar research on continuous spectral water quality online detection.

Finally, based on a numerical simulation platform of an integrated helicopter/ turbo-shaft engine system, an adaptive turbo-shaft engine model is developed and tested in a certain flight envelope. Under the condition of single or multiple engine components being degraded, many simulation experiments are carried out, and the simulation results show the effectiveness and validity of the proposed adaptive modeling method.

STPGTN-AMulti-Branch Parameters Identification Method Considering Spatial Constraints and Transient Measurement Data

Transmission line(TL)Parameter Identification(PI)method plays an essential role in the transmission system.The existing PI methods usually have two limitations:(1)These methods only model for single TL,and can not consider the topology connection of multiple branches for simultaneous identification.(2)Transient bad data is ignored by methods,and the random selection of terminal section data may cause the distortion of PI and have serious consequences.Therefore,a multi-task PI model considering multiple TLs’spatial constraints and massive electrical section data is proposed in this paper.The Graph Attention Network module is used to draw a single TL into a node and calculate its influence coefficient in the transmission network.Multi-Task strategy of Hard Parameter Sharing is used to identify the conductance ofmultiple branches simultaneously.Experiments show that themethod has good accuracy and robustness.Due to the consideration of spatial constraints,the method can also obtain more accurate conductance values under different training and testing conditions.

Numerical Method for Modeling the Constitutive Relationship of Sand under Different Stress Paths

A numerical method was used in order to establish the constitutive relationship of sands under different stress paths, Firstly, based on the numerical method modeling the constitutive law of sands, the elastoplastic constitutive relationship of sand was established for three paths： the constant proportion of principle stress path, the conventional triaxial compression （CTC） path, and the p=constant （TC） path. The yield lines of plastic volumetric strain and plastic generalized shear strain were given. Through visualization, the three dimensional surface of the stress-strain relationship in the whole stress field （p, q） obtained under the three paths was plotted. Also, by comparing the stress-strain surfaces and yield locus of the three stress paths, the differences were found to be obvious, which demonstrates that the influence of the stress paths on constitutive law was not neglected. The numerical modeling method overcame the difficulty of finding an analytical expression for plastic potential. The results simulated the experimental data with an accuracy of 90% on average, so the constitutive model established in this paper provides an effective constitutive equation for this kind of engineering, reflecting the effect of practical stress paths that occur in sands.
