To advance this technique, primarily for the design of plum blossom piles, it is important to investigate the skin friction behavior of plum blossom pile foundations precluding any straightforward constitutive model. In this work, an analytic method dependent on the cross-sectional geometry and the vertical shearing effects is proposed by means of equilibrium analysis to calculate the effective vertical stress in the surrounding soil, the skin friction/negative skin friction, and the axial force/dragload of a plum blossom pile. Additionally, the curves of skin friction of piles are investigated with the same conditions. The results show that the curves of skin friction of piles deduced according to the developed analytic method agree well with the FEM results and related literature solution, which validates the solution. The axial force of the pile decreases with the increase of the shear action coefficient in the buried depth direction under the vertical concentrated load when considering the vertical shearing effects on the pile-soil interfaces.展开更多

Development of the friction stir welding （FSW） has provided an alternative improved way of producing aluminium joints in a faster and reliable manner. The quality of a weld joint is stalwartly influenced by process parameter used during welding. An approach to develop a mathematical model was studied for predicting and optimizing the process parameters of dissimilar aluminum alloy （AA6351 T6-AA5083 Hlll）joints by incorporating the FSW process parameters such as tool pin profile, tool rotational speed welding speed and axial force. The effects of the FSW process parameters on the ultimate tensile strength （UTS） of friction welded dissimilar joints were discussed. Optimization was carried out to maximize the UTS using response surface methodology （RSM） and the identified optimum FSW welding parameters were reported.展开更多

However,the thermal cycles experienced by the material to be joined during FSW resulted in the deterioration of mechanical properties due to the coarsening and dissolution of strengthening precipitates in the thermo-mechanical affected zone(TMAZ) and heat affected zone(HAZ). Under water friction stir welding(UWFSW) is a variant of FSW process which can maintain low heat input as well as constant heat input along the weld line. The heat conduction and dissipation during UWFSW controls the width of TMAZ and HAZ and also improves the joint properties. In this investigation, an attempt has been made to evaluate the mechanical properties and microstructural characteristics of AA2519-T87 aluminium alloy joints made by FSW and UWFSW processes. Finite element analysis has been used to estimate the temperature distribution and width of TMAZ region in both the joints and the results have been compared with experimental results and subsequently correlated with mechanical properties.? 2016 China Ordnance Society.

In the course of braking, all parameters of the pro cesses (velocity, load, temperature, physicomechanical and tribological characte ristics of materials of the couple, and conditions of contacts) vary with the ti me. Considerable evidence has show that the contact temperature is an integral f actor reflecting the specific power friction influence at the combined effect of load, speed, friction coefficient, thermo physical and durability properties of materials of a frictional couple. Furthermore, the physic mechanical state of t he interface of the disk and pads is determined not only by the contact temperat ure but also by the nonstationary temperature field. Using the two-dimensional model for thermal analysis implies that the contact conditions and frictiona l heat flux transfer are independent of θ. This may lead to false thermal elast ic distortions and unrealistic contact conditions. An analytical model is presen ted in this paper for the determination of contact temperature distribution on t he working surface of a brake. To consider the effects of the moving heat source (the pad) with relative sliding speed variation, a transient finite element tec hnique is used to characterize the temperature fields of the solid rotor with ap propriate thermal boundary conditions. And the transient heat conduction problem can be solved as a nominal 3-D transient heat transfer problem with an immovab le heat source. Numerical results shows that the operating characteristics of th e brake exert an essentially influence on the surface temperature distribution a nd the maximal contact temperature. The temperature field presents a noaxisymmet ric characteristic (a function of θ) and proves to be strongly localized and po ssesses a sharp gradient in both axial and radial directions.展开更多

Excessive temperature rise can greatly alter the seal geometry and vaporize the sealing fluid, resulting in friction of boundary lubrication. These effects on face seals usually lead to excessive leakage and ultimately ren der the seal inoperable. In order to maintain the reliability of seals, high fri ction and unwanted wear must be avoided. Using the laser-texturing process to produce regular micro-surface structures is a fast and convenient technique compared to some more conventional etching or erosion technique currently used by the seal industry for various grooved face seals. Indeed, by using a pulse laser, better control is obtained on the geometr y, size and pore ratio of seal rings made of metallic or ceramic materials. In t his study, seal rings are made of silicon carbide and carbon. Mating faces of th e rings are polished and only silicon carbide rings are laser-textured. The las er texturing can be controlled to produce spherical pores at selected diameters, depths and pore ratio. The textured rings are then super-polished to remove th e bulges formed on the pores rims. After this process the average pore diameter, pore depth and pore ratio reach the predetermined parameter. Some untextured ri ngs are also treated to the same surface roughness and served as a reference for comparison of the textured rings. A special test rig is used to simulate a mech anical seal system and to measure the effect of the laser texturing on friction and seal performance. Tests are performed at various rotational speeds and vario us axial loads. Compared with the conventional mechanical seals, temperature rise, friction torq ue and friction coefficient of mechanical seals with laser-textured seal faces are much lower. These preliminary results show the potential of improving fricti on performance and increasing seal life with laser-textured seal faces.展开更多

文摘This study investigates the corrosion-assisted fatigue crack growth rate(FCGR)of 16 mm thick AA 7075-T651 friction stir welded(FSW)joints.Compact tension(CT)specimens were extracted from both the base material and FSW joints to evaluate FCGR under varying corrosion exposure durations(0,7,30,60,and 90 days)at a constant stress ratio of 0.5.Microstructural analysis of the welds was conducted using optical and transmission electron microscopy(TEM).Results indicate that the critical stress intensity factor range(ΔK_(cr))of FSW joints is lower than that of the base material,primarily due to precipitate dissolution in the weld zone during the FSW process,as confirmed by TEM analysis.The fatigue life of FSW joints was significantly lower than that of the base material,but with prolonged exposure to seawater corrosion,the gap in fatigue life narrowed.Specimens exposed to seawater for more than 60days exhibited minimal differences in fatigue life between the base material and the FSW joints.This was attributed to the higher corrosion rate of the base material compared to the weld nugget,resulting in the formation of deeper pits that facilitated crack initiation and accelerated fatigue failure.The findings conclude that extended corrosion exposure leads to similar fatigue life and crack growth behaviour in both the base material and FSW joints.SEM and EDX analysis of AA7075-T651 revealed corrosion pits and rust products in initiation zones,ductile striations in growth regions,and secondary cracks with micro voids in fracture zones.FSW joints exhibited ultra-fine grains,smooth ductile fracture in initiation and growth regions,and brittle fracture in the fracture zones under both corroded and uncorroded conditions.
文摘This study examines the effects of friction stir welding(FSW)and post-weld heat treatment(PWHT)on the grain boundary character distribution and corrosion resistance of cross sectional(top and bottom)regions of nickel-and molybdenum-free high-nitrogen austenitic stainless steel(HNASS).FSW at 400 rpm and 30 mm/min resulted in finer grains(4.18μm)and higher coincident site lattice(CSL)boundaries(32.3%)at the top of the stir zone(SZ)due to dynamic recrystallization(DRX).PWHT at 900℃for 1 h led to grain coarsening(12.91μm the bottom SZ)but enhanced CSL boundaries from 24.6%to 30.2%,improving grain boundary stability.PWHT reduced the kernel average misorientation(KAM)by 14.9%in the SZ-top layer and 20.4%in the SZ-bottom layer,accompanied by a 25%decrease in hardness in the SZ-top layer and 26.7%in the SZ-bottom layer,indicating strain recovery and reduced dislocation density.Potentiodynamic polarization tests(PDP)showed a 18%increase in pitting potential and a 76%reduction in corrosion rate after PWHT.The improvement in corrosion resistance is attributed to the increase inΣ3 twin boundaries,which enhance grain boundary stability and reduce susceptibility to localized corrosion.These findings highlight the role of PWHT in refining the microstructure and strengthening corrosion resistance,making HNASS a promising material for demanding applications.
文摘Aluminium alloys generally present low weldability by traditional fusion welding process. Development of the friction stir welding （FSW） has provided an alternative improved way of producing aluminium joints in a faster and reliable manner. The quality of a weld joint is stalwartly influenced by process parameter used during welding. An approach to develop a mathematical model was studied for predicting and optimizing the process parameters of dissimilar aluminum alloy （AA6351 T6-AA5083 Hlll）joints by incorporating the FSW process parameters such as tool pin profile, tool rotational speed welding speed and axial force. The effects of the FSW process parameters on the ultimate tensile strength （UTS） of friction welded dissimilar joints were discussed. Optimization was carried out to maximize the UTS using response surface methodology （RSM） and the identified optimum FSW welding parameters were reported.

文摘The effect of the design parameter on the clutch engagement process of the hydro-mechanical continuously variable transmission(CVT)was investigated.First,the model of the power train was developed with the software of SimulationX,and the clutch shift experiment was used to validate the correctness of the model.Then,the friction coefficient function was fitted with the test data to get the friction coefficient model suitable for this paper.Finally,based on the evaluating index of the friction torque and the friction power,two groups of design parameters(oil pressure and friction coefficient)were simulated and explained the changing regulation theoretically.According to the simulation results,the high oil pressure and friction coefficient can reduce the slipping time.The large oil pressure can increase the peak torque but the effect of friction coefficient on the peak torque is not so significant.The friction power reaches the maximum value at 3.2 s,the peak value increases as the oil pressure and friction coefficient increase.The effect of the oil pressure on the clutch engagement and thermal performance is greater than the friction coefficient.

文摘Fractions of β-HMX(β-1,3,5,7-tetranitro-1,3,5,7-tetrazocane) have been used to demonstrate the mutual relationship between friction and impact sensitivities.Inclusion of an additional twelve nitramines into this scenario resulted in a series of partial relationships,which were determined from the molecular structure of these substances.It was also found that there is a relation between increasing heats of fusion of the nitramines studied and their decreasing friction sensitivities.Comparison of friction sensitivity with heats of fusion,ΔHm,tr of the studied nitramines shows that the increase in ΔHm,tr values is more or less connected with a decrease in friction sensitivity.

文摘This work describes an experimental investigation into the influence of geometric micro-groove texture patterns on the tribological performance of stainless steel.Five geometries were studied:one with untextured and four with micro-groove textured making parallel,triangular,square and hexagonal patterns.The micro-groove textures were produced using an MFT-20laser system as well as a two-step laser surface texturing(LST)process.Tribological performance was measured using a pin-on-disk tribometer.The investigation showed that the two-step LST process could fabricate high-precision micro-grooves.The experimental data indicated that the micro-groove textured surfaces achieved the lower frictional coefficients than the untextured surface and the geometric patterns had significantly affected the tribological properties of samples in both lubricated and unlubricated states.The results were analyzed from the lubricant supplying and fluid dynamic pressure effect under lubricated conditions as well as abrasive capture and remove under dry friction conditions.

文摘A systematic approach was presented to develop the empirical model for predicting the ultimate tensile strength of AA5083-H111 aluminum alloy which is widely used in ship building industry by incorporating friction stir welding(FSW) process parameters such as tool rotational speed,welding speed,and axial force.FSW was carried out considering three-factor five-level central composite rotatable design with full replications technique.Response surface methodology(RSM) was applied to developing linear regression model for establishing the relationship between the FSW process parameters and ultimate tensile strength.Analysis of variance(ANOVA) technique was used to check the adequacy of the developed model.The FSW process parameters were also optimized using response surface methodology(RSM) to maximize the ultimate tensile strength.The joint welded at a tool rotational speed of 1 000 r/min,a welding speed of 69 mm/min and an axial force of 1.33 t exhibits higher tensile strength compared with other joints.

文摘Friction stir welding(FSW) is a promising welding process that can join age hardenable aluminium alloys with high joint efficiency. However,the thermal cycles experienced by the material to be joined during FSW resulted in the deterioration of mechanical properties due to the coarsening and dissolution of strengthening precipitates in the thermo-mechanical affected zone(TMAZ) and heat affected zone(HAZ). Under water friction stir welding(UWFSW) is a variant of FSW process which can maintain low heat input as well as constant heat input along the weld line. The heat conduction and dissipation during UWFSW controls the width of TMAZ and HAZ and also improves the joint properties. In this investigation, an attempt has been made to evaluate the mechanical properties and microstructural characteristics of AA2519-T87 aluminium alloy joints made by FSW and UWFSW processes. Finite element analysis has been used to estimate the temperature distribution and width of TMAZ region in both the joints and the results have been compared with experimental results and subsequently correlated with mechanical properties.? 2016 China Ordnance Society.

文摘The disk-pad brake used in automobile is divided i nt o two parts: the disk, geometrically axisymmetric, and the pad, of which the geo metry is three-dimensional. In the course of braking, all parameters of the pro cesses (velocity, load, temperature, physicomechanical and tribological characte ristics of materials of the couple, and conditions of contacts) vary with the ti me. Considerable evidence has show that the contact temperature is an integral f actor reflecting the specific power friction influence at the combined effect of load, speed, friction coefficient, thermo physical and durability properties of materials of a frictional couple. Furthermore, the physic mechanical state of t he interface of the disk and pads is determined not only by the contact temperat ure but also by the nonstationary temperature field. Using the two-dimensional model for thermal analysis implies that the contact conditions and frictiona l heat flux transfer are independent of θ. This may lead to false thermal elast ic distortions and unrealistic contact conditions. An analytical model is presen ted in this paper for the determination of contact temperature distribution on t he working surface of a brake. To consider the effects of the moving heat source (the pad) with relative sliding speed variation, a transient finite element tec hnique is used to characterize the temperature fields of the solid rotor with ap propriate thermal boundary conditions. And the transient heat conduction problem can be solved as a nominal 3-D transient heat transfer problem with an immovab le heat source. Numerical results shows that the operating characteristics of th e brake exert an essentially influence on the surface temperature distribution a nd the maximal contact temperature. The temperature field presents a noaxisymmet ric characteristic (a function of θ) and proves to be strongly localized and po ssesses a sharp gradient in both axial and radial directions.
文摘Heat generated by friction between faces of mechanica l seals is a major factor that causes deterioration of the seals and shortens th eir service life. Excessive temperature rise can greatly alter the seal geometry and vaporize the sealing fluid, resulting in friction of boundary lubrication. These effects on face seals usually lead to excessive leakage and ultimately ren der the seal inoperable. In order to maintain the reliability of seals, high fri ction and unwanted wear must be avoided. Using the laser-texturing process to produce regular micro-surface structures is a fast and convenient technique compared to some more conventional etching or erosion technique currently used by the seal industry for various grooved face seals. Indeed, by using a pulse laser, better control is obtained on the geometr y, size and pore ratio of seal rings made of metallic or ceramic materials. In t his study, seal rings are made of silicon carbide and carbon. Mating faces of th e rings are polished and only silicon carbide rings are laser-textured. The las er texturing can be controlled to produce spherical pores at selected diameters, depths and pore ratio. The textured rings are then super-polished to remove th e bulges formed on the pores rims. After this process the average pore diameter, pore depth and pore ratio reach the predetermined parameter. Some untextured ri ngs are also treated to the same surface roughness and served as a reference for comparison of the textured rings. A special test rig is used to simulate a mech anical seal system and to measure the effect of the laser texturing on friction and seal performance. Tests are performed at various rotational speeds and vario us axial loads. Compared with the conventional mechanical seals, temperature rise, friction torq ue and friction coefficient of mechanical seals with laser-textured seal faces are much lower. These preliminary results show the potential of improving fricti on performance and increasing seal life with laser-textured seal faces.

文摘It is of great significance for safety reason to obtain the triaxial compressive properties of cemented tailings backfill(CTB).The influence of cement content,curing age and confining pressure on strength and deformation properties of CTB was examined and discussed.Results indicate that the triaxial compressive and deformation behavior of CTB is strongly affected by the cement content,curing age and confining pressure.The increase in cement content,curing age and confining pressure leads to a change in stress−strain behavior and an increase in the axial strain at failure and post-peak strength loss.The cohesion of CTB rises as the curing age and cement content increase.However,the enhancement in internal friction angle is trivial and negligible.It should be noted that the failure pattern of CTB samples in triaxial compression is mainly along a shear plane,the confining pressure restrains the lateral expansion and the bulging failure pattern is dominantly detected in CTB samples as curing age length and cement content increase.The results will help to better understand the triaxial mechanical and deformation behavior of CTB.
