Based on the numerical simulation analysis, structure parameters of the high pressure fuel pump and common rail as well as flow limiter are designed and the GD-1 high pressure common rail fuel injection system is self-developed. Fuel injection characteristics experiment is performed on the GD-1 system. And double-factor variance analysis is applied to investigate the influence of the rail pressure and injection pulse width on the consistency of fuel injection quantity, thus to test whether the design of structure parameters is sound accordingly. The results of experiment and test show that rail pressure and injection pulse width as well as their mutual-effect have no influence on the injection quantity consistency, which proves that the structure parameters design is successful and performance of GD-1 system is sound.

Relationship between initial efficiency and structure parameters of carbon anode material for Li-ion battery

The initial efficiency is a very important criterion for carbon anode material of Li-ion battery.The relationship between initial efficiency and structure parameters of carbon anode material of Li-ion battery was investigated by an artificial intelligence approach called Random Forests using D10,D50,D90,BET specific surface area and TP density as inputs,initial efficiency as output.The results give good classification performance with 91%accuracy.The variable importance analysis results show the impact of 5 variables on the initial efficiency descends in the order of D90,TP density,BET specific surface area,D50 and D10;smaller D90 and larger TP density have positive impact on initial efficiency.The contribution of BET specific surface area on classification is only 18.74%,which indicates the shortcoming of BET specific surface area as a widely used parameter for initial efficiency evaluation.

Nanoscale Reciprocating Sliding Contacts of Textured Surfaces:Influence of Structure Parameters and Indentation Depth

Textured surfaces are widely used in engineering components as they can improve tribological properties of sliding contacts, while the detailed behaviors of nanoscale reciprocating sliding contacts of textured surfaces are still lack of study. By using multiscale method, two dimensional nanoscale reciprocating sliding contacts of textured surfaces are investigated. The influence of indentation depth, texture shape, texture spacing, and tip radius on the average friction forces and the running-in stages is studied. The results show that the lowest indentation depth can make all the four textured surfaces reach steady state. Surfaces with right-angled trapezoid textures on the right side are better for reducing the running-in stage, and surfaces with right-angled trapezoid textures on the left side are better to reduce wear. Compared with other textured surfaces, the total average friction forces can be reduced by 82.94%–91.49% for the case of the contact between the tip with radius R = 60rand the isosceles trapezoid textured surface. Besides,the total average friction forces increase with the tip radii due to that bigger tip will induce higher contact areas. This research proposes a detailed study on nanoscale reciprocating sliding contacts of textured surfaces, to contribute to design textured surfaces, reduce friction and wear.

Effect of lateral structure parameters of SiGe HBTs on synthesized active inductors

The effect of lateral structure parameters of transistors including emitter width, emitter length, and emitter stripe number on the performance parameters of the active inductor （AI）, such as the effective inductance Ls, quality factor Q, and self-resonant frequency too is analyzed based on 0.35%tm SiGe BiCMOS process. The simulation results show that for AI operated under fixed current density Jc, the HBT lateral structure parameters have significant effect on Ls but little influence on Q and 090, and the larger Ls can be realized by the narrow, short emitter stripe and few emitter stripes of SiGe HBTs. On the other hand, for AI with fixed HBT size, smaller Jc is beneficial for AI to obtain larger Ls, but with a cost of smaller Q and 090. In addition, under the fixed collector current Ic, the larger the size of HBT is, the larger Ls becomes, but the smaller Q and ab become. The obtained results provide a reference for selecting geometry of transistors and operational condition in the design of active inductors.

Effect of die structure parameters on deformation behavior of bent tube in free bending process

The bending section of tube between the bending die and the guider is in a less constrained state during the free bending process.The free bending dies have the important impact on the plastic deformation behavior and the forming quality of tube.To study the evolution law of the deformation behavior of tube with the die structure parameters and optimize the free bending die parameters,the free bending experiments and the corresponding numerical simulations were carried out.The design principle of free bending die was illustrated.The free bending experiment was conducted to verify the reliability of the numerical simulation method.Based on the numerical simulation results,the influence of the distance between the center point of bending die and the front end of guider on the forming quality of bent tube is more obvious than that of the fillet of guider.However,the fillet of bending die hardly affects the stress and strain distribution and the evolution of the wall thickness.Finally,the free bending experiments with the newly determined free bending dies were conducted.The ultimate bending radius of bent tube is reduced and the forming quality is improved.

The so-called ORC(Organic Rankine Cycle)heat recovery technology has attracted much attention with regard to medium and low temperature waste heat recovery.In the present study,it is applied to a Tesla turbine.At the same time,the effects of the disc speed,diameter and inter-disc gap on the internal flow field and output power of the turbine are also investigated by means of CFD(Computational Fluid Dynamics)numerical simulation,by which the pressure,velocity,and output efficiency of the internal flow field are obtained under different internal and external conditions.The highest efficiency(66.4%)is obtained for a number of nozzles equal to 4,a disk thickness of 1 mm,and a gap of 1 mm between the disks.The results of the study serve as a theoretical basis for the structural design and optimization of Tesla turbines.

Effect of Structure Parameters on Power and Magnetic Field in Electromagnetic Soft-Contact Continuous Casting System

To design a power source system and mold for electromagnetic soft-contact continuous casting process and to theoretically estimate the heat losses from the charges and the system power, the effect of structure parameters on system power and magnetic flux density distribution was calculated using finite element method. The results show that as for electromagnetic soft-contact continuous casting system with partial-segment type mold, the power consumption is much more than that with a full-segment type mold; about 62% of electric power is dissipated in the mold, and the effective acting range of magnetic field is relatively narrow. Optimizing mold structure is a crucial measure of remarkably reducing mold power consumption and saving electric energy. Increasing slit number, width, and length can remarkably increase the magnetic flux density in the mold and can reduce the electric energy consumption. Among structure parameters, slit number and slit width are relatively more effective to reduce energy consumption. For a round billet electromagnetic continuous casting system with diameter of 178 ram, the reasonable slit number, width, and length are about 24--32, 0. 5--1.0 mm, and 160 mm, respectively.

Mode analysis and structure parameter optimization of a novel SiGe-OI rib optical waveguide

The mode of a novel SiGe-OI optical waveguide is analyzed, and its single-mode conditions are derived. The Ge content and structure parameters of SiGe-OI optical waveguides are respectively optimized. Under an operation wavelength of 1300 nm, the structures of SiGe-OI rib optical waveguides are built and analyzed with Optiwave software, and the optical field and transmission losses of the SiGe-OI rib optical waveguides are analyzed. The optimization results show that when the structure parameters H, h, W are respectively 500 nm, 250 nm, 500 nm and the Ge content is 5%, the total power loss of SiGe-OI rib waveguides is 0.3683 dB/cm considering the loss of radiation outside the waveguides and materials, which is less than the traditional value of 0.5 dB/cm. The analytical technique for SiGe-OI optical waveguides and structure parameters computed by this paper are proved to be accurate and computationally efficient compared with the beam propagation method （BPM） and the experimental results.

Integrated Optimization of Structure and Control Parameters for the Height Control System of a Vertical Spindle Cotton Picker

Vertical picking method is a predominate method used to harvest cotton crop.However,a vertical picking method may cause spindle bending of the cotton picker if spindles collide with stones on the cotton field.Thus,how to realize a precise height control of the cotton picker is a crucial issue to be solved.The objective of this study is to design a height control system to avoid the collision.To design it,the mathematical models are established first.Then a multi-objective optimization model represented by structure parameters and control parameters is proposed to take the pressure of chamber without piston,response time and displacement error of the height control system as the opti-mization objectives.An integrated optimization approach that combines optimization via simulation,particle swarm optimization and simulated annealing is proposed to solve the model.Simulation and experimental test results show that the proposed integrated optimization approach can not only reduce the pressure of chamber without piston,but also decrease the response time and displacement error of the height control system.

Extracting Structure Parameters of Dimers for Molecular Tunneling Ionization Model

We determine structure parameters of the highest occupied molecular orbital(HOMO)of 27 dimers for the molecular tunneling ionization(so called MO-ADK)model of Tong et al.[Phys.Rev.A 66(2002)033402].The molecular wave functions with correct asymptotic behavior are obtained by solving the time-independent Schr(o|¨)dinger equation with B-spline functions and molecular potentials which are numerically created using the density functional theory.We examine the alignment-dependent tunneling ionization probabilities from MO-ADK model for several molecules by comparing with the molecular strong-field approximation(MO-SFA)calculations.We show the molecular PerelomovPopov-Terent'ev(MO-PPT)can successfully give the laser wavelength dependence of ionization rates(or probabilities).Based on the MO-PPT model,two diatomic molecules having valence orbital with antibonding systems(i.e.,Cl_2,Ne_2)show strong ionization suppression when compared with their corresponding closest companion atoms.

A STUDY ON THE ESTIMATION OF TEMPERATURE STRUCTURE PARAMETER IN ABL WITH ELEVATED INVERSION

Temperature structure parameter in the vertical is estimated once by using the turbulence outer scale approximation and another by using the Obukhov similarity relationship during the formation of an elevated inversion.A comparison of the profiles drawn using both the methods is done for the pur- pose of assessing the accuracy of the similarity method when applied to levels above the surface-based layer.The profiles obtained by both the methods are also compared with a similar profile obtained af- ter considering a bulk shear between the ground and top of the elevated layer.

Accurate Structure Parameters for Tunneling Ionization Rates of Gas-Phase Linear Molecules

In the molecular Ammosov–Delone–Krainov(MO-ADK) model of Tong et al. [Phys. Rev. A 66(2002)033402], the ionization rate depends on the structure parameters of the molecular orbital from which the electron is removed. We determine systematically and tabulate accurate structure parameters of the highest occupied molecular orbital(HOMO) for 123 gas-phase linear molecules by solving time-independent Schr¨odinger equation with B-spline functions and molecular potentials which are constructed numerically using the modified Leeuwen–Baerends(LBα)model.

Determination of structure parameters in strong-field ionization models of atoms

The Ammosov–Delone–Krainov(ADK) and Perelomov–Popov–Terent'ev(PPT) ionization models were widely used in strong-field physics and attosecond science due to their many attractive advantages such as simpler analytical formula, less computational demands, and satisfied accuracy of ionization rate. Based on the density-functional theory, we systematically determine accurate structure parameters of 25 atoms, 24 positive ions and 13 negative ions and tabulate for future applications. The wave function with correct asymptotic behavior is obtained by solving the time-independent Schr?dinger equation with B-spline basis sets and the accurate structure parameters are extracted from this wave function in the asymptotic region. The accuracies of structure parameters are carefully examined by comparing the ionization probabilities(or yields) calculated by PPT and ADK models with those of solving the threedimensional time-dependent Schr?dinger equation and the experimental data.

Time-shift effect of spontaneous combustion characteristics and microstructure difference of dry-soaked coal

The physical and chemical properties of the air-dried residual coal after soaking in the goaf will change,resulting in an increase in its spontaneous combustion tendency.This study aimed to look into the features and mechanism of soaked-dried coal's spontaneous combustion.Five samples of coal were dried to various degrees,and the weight loss features during thermal processing were examined.Based on this,the pore structure and chemical structure characteristics of the coal samples with the highest tendency to spontaneous combustion were quantitatively examined,and the mechanism by which soaking-drying afected the spontaneous combustion heating process of the remaining coal in goaf was investigated in turn.The results show that T1 decreases with the increase of drying time,T2–T6 shows a fuctuating change,and the ignition activation energy of 36-S-Coal is smaller than that of other coal samples.The pore type of 36-S-Coal changes from a oneend closed impermeable pore to an open pore,and the pore group area is large.During the 36 h drying process,the internal channels of the coal were dredged,and a large number of gravels and minerals were precipitated from the pores with the air fow.A large number of gravels were around the pores to form a surface structure that was easy to adsorb various gases.Furthermore,infrared spectroscopy was used to analyze the two coal samples.It was found that soaking and drying did not change the functional group types of coal samples,but the fatty chain degree of 36-S-Coal was reduced to 1.56.It shows that the aliphatic chain structure of coal is changed after 36 h of drying after 30 days of soaking,which leads to the continuous shedding of aliphatic chain branches of residual coal,and the skeleton of coal is looser,which makes the low-temperature oxidation reaction of 36-S-Coal easier.Based on the above results,the coal-oxygen composite mechanism of water-immerseddried coal is obtained,and it is considered that the key to the spontaneous combustion oxidation process of coal is to provide oxygen atoms and accelerate the formation of peroxides.

The correlation between molecular structure parameters of O-ethyl N-isopropyl phosphoro(thioureido)thioates and their retention data in RP-HPLC

A retention prediction system(RPS)of seven O-ethyl N-isopropyl phosphoro(thioureido)- thioates in reversed phase HPLC was investigated.The system is based on the solvent selectivity triangle concept.Three molecular structure parameters(hydrophobicity Ⅱ,substituent length L, and substituent maximum width B_5)were used to describe the quantitative structure-retention relation- ships.With these quantitative relationships,the retention behaviours of other eight homologs for different mobile phase composition were predicted.The predicted values were consistent with the measured values within relative error of 10%,which means that it is possible to apply the reported method to predict retention values for qualitative purposes for different mobile phase compositions.
