To explore the reliability of the lifespan of beam structures, a probability lifespan numerical calculation method based on Vector Form Intrinsic Finite Element Method (VFIFEM) was proposed, and the method was verified through full lifespan experiments on I-beam welded structures. First, a fatigue fracture model that considers the coupling of residual stress (RS) and cyclic load variations was established. Based on this fatigue fracture model, a probability lifespan calculation model for beam elements was defined by proposing a cross-sectional shape correction coefficient and a position correction coefficient. The proposed probability lifespan model for beam elements was used to calculate the I-beam welded structure, and the calculated results were compared with the full lifespan experiment results, which were close in statistical results, with all experimental results falling within the [10%, 90%] interval except for one experiment. This method effectively couples the influence of statistical size and geometric size on probability lifespan, providing a new approach for the structure probability lifespan calculation in the future.","PeriodicalId":49110,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Mechanical Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135427900","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Marangoni induced flow plays a vital role in melting of coating flow technology, drying wafers, crystals, soap film stabilization, wielding and microfluidics, in which the flow creates unwanted impacts under gravity on micro-level in the same manner as buoyancy-induced natural convection. The Magneto-Marangoni convective flow of Walter-B fluid over a vertical permeable surface is addressed in the current research. The Dufour–Soret effects are taken into account along with activation energy and radiation. Flow through a porous media is modeled via Darcy and Forchheimer theory. The surface tension gradient becomes stronger by increasing the Marangoni convection parameter, which results in stronger induced flows and more efficient heat and mass movement inside the liquid. The result is a more uniform distribution of these qualities throughout the liquid as the temperature and concentration profiles drop. With higher viscoelastic parameter levels, the fluid accelerates and the velocity profile increases due to decreased viscosity. Due to an augmentation in the Dufour and Soret number, the thermal and concentration of the Walter-B fluid boost up respectively.","PeriodicalId":49110,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Mechanical Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135434172","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A composite rotating tool cathode for electrochemical milling is designed, and the electric field simulation calculation is conducted for the electrochemical milling process. The electric field results show that as the tool cathode continues to penetrate, the machining area of electrochemical milling continues to increase, and the current density in the machining gap increases. After the tool cathode enters the semicircle, if the processing area of electrochemical milling remains unchanged, the amount of material removed per unit time remains unchanged, and the current density also remains stable. At the same time, orthogonal experiments and process parameter optimization were conducted on the electrochemical milling of cemented carbide side edges. The results showed that the maximum material removal was achieved under the process parameters of processing voltage 14 V, feed speed 10 mm/min, spindle speed 3000 r/min, and duty cycle of 70%.

Previously, increasing heat exchange capacity in heat exchangers was achieved by altering parameters such as boundary conditions, flow geometry, heat exchanger geometry, or changing the type of fluid. Additionally, apart from the use of nanofluids, various other operational methods can be employed to improve the thermal performance of heat exchangers. Accordingly, considering the combination of the aforementioned innovative techniques, this study presents the modeling of flow and heat transfer inside helically coiled tube heat exchangers under the flow of nanofluids containing nickel, gold, silver, and gold/silver hybrid nanoparticles using numerical and artificial intelligence methods. In this study, the effect of variations in the inner diameter of the coiled tube and the volume fraction of nanoparticles was examined. The results showed that increasing the inner diameter and volume fraction of nanoparticles leads to an increase in heat transfer coefficient and Nusselt number, while the friction factor decreases with an increase in Reynolds number and increases with an increase in diameter and volume fraction. Finally, the accuracy and validity of the model were evaluated using statistical parameters and experimental results, which showed a 99.9% level of agreement between the predicted and experimental outcomes.","PeriodicalId":49110,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Mechanical Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135389305","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is expected that the application of digital twin in intelligent factory logistics can enrich connectivity, proactivity, and agility of the logistics. Architecture is one of the significant factors impacting on the selection of appropriate enabling technologies for constructing the intelligent logistics. This paper proposes a digital twin architecture for intelligent factory logistics. It mainly includes a physical layer, two cyber layers, and an interface layer. The architecture is in compliance with the architecture of the Human-Cyber-Physical System (HCPS). Moreover, the evolution of the architecture is elaborated during the planning, implement, and operation stages when construction of the digital twin. At the initial stage, human should participate in the decision-making process frequently to determine whether the results given by digital twin need to be changed. However, the data-driven model based digital twin will continually learn the human’s changing behaviors, thus constantly updating itself. It can evolution from digital model, digital shadow to digital twin with the continuous construction process.

This paper presents a nonlinear dynamic analysis of a composite rotor-bearing system with pedestal looseness that considers the nonlinear oil film force and the pedestal looseness. Nonlinear phenomena including periodic, quasi-periodic, and chaotic motions are analyzed. The analysis results indicate that the stiffness and damping coefficients of a composite shaft tube can be influenced strongly by the laminate parameters, which can in turn affect the instability speed of the rotor system. To enhance the oil film instability speed of the composite rotor system, it is essential to maximize the ratio of the small orientation angle layer or the ±45° layer. Additionally, increasing the ratio of the small orientation angle layers in the shaft tube leads to a higher rotational speed for loosening instability. The research results obtained in this paper have important theoretical value for the design of composite rotor-bearing systems.","PeriodicalId":49110,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Mechanical Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135427555","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite this, the current state of research on high altitude engines is still inadequate in providing sufficient and detailed information to counteract the decrease in engine efficiency. In addition, one of the novelty of this study was that the investigated altitudes is up to 4500 m, of which the previous studies was limited. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the effect of altitude on in-cylinder spray, combustion, and soot formation processes in diesel engines. A calibrated three-dimensional (3D) computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model of a single-cylinder, four-strokes, direct injection (DI) compression ignition, intake boost research diesel engine is established. The numerical CFD model used in this study has been validated through comparison with experimental data. It effectively investigates the in-cylinder activities and provides insights into the causes behind combustion and soot emission deterioration. The simulation is operated at altitudes of 0, 1500, 3000, 4500 m with corresponding intake pressure. It has been observed that engine performance and soot emissions deteriorate as altitude increases, and a sharp drop occurs when the altitude exceeds 3000 m, which can be attributed to the dramatic decline in combustion efficiency. The extended spray leads to a decrease in air utilization, which ultimately results in a sudden drop in combustion efficiency at altitudes above 3000 m. Overall, this study has identified that the extended penetration of the spray, caused by reduced pressure and air density, leads to poor air utilization, resulting in decreased performance and increased emissions. Hence, it is recommended that optimization of the combustion chamber geometry and injection strategies of diesel engines operating at high altitudes be undertaken to improve air utilization and combustion quality. This will serve as an avenue for further research in the future.","PeriodicalId":49110,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Mechanical Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135434282","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Model predictive control is suitable for multi-input and multi-output nonlinear models, and it has the advantage of considering model constraints. This type of control makes the model output more in line with vehicle dynamics characteristics and improves the trajectory tracking accuracy.

It could be an alternative to the conventional concrete. In alkaline circumstances, the alumina and silica concentration in geopolymer concrete creates the geopolymer bond, while regular concrete creates C-S-H (calcium silicate hydrate bond). The final result of the geopolymer bond does not include any water. At elevated temperatures, geopolymer concrete would thus be more stable. Due to its greater strength and durability quality, geopolymer concrete may be the ideal replacement for ordinary portland cement (OPC) concrete. This research intends to examine how specimens of geopolymer concrete and regular concrete respond to exposure to increased temperatures between 100°C and 800°C. Mass loss, ultrasonic pulse velocity, compressive strength, X-ray diffraction, thermogravimetric analysis and derivative thermogravimetric analysis were all examined throughout the experimental examination. Both concrete specimens lose mass or weight as the exposure temperature rises; OPC concrete samples spalls at 600°C, while GPC sample fail at 800°C. GPC specimens lose around 12% of their original mass after being exposed to temperatures of 800°C, while OPC specimens lose about 7%. The GPC specimens maintained 60% of their initial compressive strength after being exposed to a temperature of 700°C, but the OPC concrete specimens only kept 52%. With each increase in exposure to extreme temperatures, the peaks of quartz and cristobalite are lowered. Only the form or structure of the mineral oxide would change; the chemical linkages would remain. The GPC samples subjected to temperatures of 100°C exhibit effective thermal stability than all other specimens exposed to extreme temperatures. As the exposure temperature rises, the GPC specimens become more thermally stable. According to the experimental findings, the GPC specimens’ bonding structure makes them more resistant to high temperatures than regular concrete specimens. Micropores are present in the voids of the geopolymer matrix, while mesopores and micropores are present in the voids of the OPC matrix. While OPC bonding is C-S-H formed by the hydration of lime and silica contained in the cement, the geopolymer bonding did not include the water content in the final or end result of geopolymerisation for strengthening.","PeriodicalId":49110,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Mechanical Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135433957","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paper, the connection between bushing position and vehicle dynamic response is elucidated. According to the simulation results, the impact of the bushing position on the transient performance of vehicle is more pronounced at low handling frequencies, and different index under the same bushing position are not always optimal. To design the bushing position that is better for evaluation indexes, this paper formulates the design problem of the bushing position as a multi-objective optimization problem. Due to the influence of actual production and processing, inevitable errors in bushing position may result in vehicle performance not meeting design requirements. Therefore, this paper takes into consideration the uncertainties and conducts robust multi-objective optimization to design the bushing position. To address the computational burden associated with robust optimization, the RBF approximation model is developed in this paper. Finally, the optimization problem is solved with the NSGA-II intelligent algorithm. The optimization results show that the bushing position designed by robust multi-objective optimization results in vehicle with stronger anti-roll performance and better robustness for each evaluation index. It is more suitable for practical applications.","PeriodicalId":49110,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Mechanical Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135389565","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
