This paper reports the relationships between microscopic defects of Q345 steel plate under the explosive load and its macroscopic dynamics simulation. Firstly, the defect characteristics of the steel plate were investigated by stereoscopic microscope(SM) and scanning electron microscope(SEM). At the macroscopic level, the defect was the formation of cave which was concentrated in the range of 0-3.0 cm from the explosion center, while at the microscopic level, the cavity and void formation were the typical damage characteristics. It also explains that the difference in defect morphology at different positions was the combining results of high temperature and high pressure. Secondly, the variation rules of mechanical properties of steel plate under explosive load were studied. The Arbitrary Lagrange-Euler(ALE) algorithm and multi-material fluid-structure coupling method were used to simulate the explosion process of steel plate. The accuracy of the method was verified by comparing the deformation of the simulation results with the experimental results, the pressure and stress at different positions on the surface of the steel plate were obtained. The simulation results indicated that the critical pressure causing the plate defects may be approximately 2.01 GPa. On this basis, it was found that the variation rules of surface pressure and microscopic defect area of the Q345 steel plate were strikingly similar, and the corresponding mathematical relationship between them was established. Compared with Monomolecular growth fitting models(MGFM) and Logistic fitting models(LFM), the relationship can be better expressed by cubic polynomial fitting model(CPFM). This paper illustrated that the explosive defect characteristics of metal plate at the microscopic level can be explored by analyzing its macroscopic dynamic mechanical response.展开更多

Meanwhile, in the studies conducted in the field of pressure sensors, the measurement of subtle pressures has received less attention. The limitations in the inherent gauge factor in silicon, have led to the development of polymer and composite resistive sensitive elements. However,in the development of resistance sensing elements, the structure of composite elements with reinforcement core has not been used. The proposed PS had a composite sandwich structure consisting of a nanocomposite graphene layer covered by layers of PDMS at the bottom and on the top coupled with a polyimide(PI) core. Various tests were performed to analyze the PS. The primary design target was improved sensitivity, with a finite-element method(FEM) utilized to simulate the stress profile over piezoresistive elements and membrane deflection at various pressures. The PS manufacturing process is based on Laser-engraved graphene(LEG) technology and PDMS casting. Experimental data indicated that the manufactured PS exhibits a sensitivity of 67.28 mV/kPa for a pressure range of 30-300 Pa in ambient temperature.展开更多

This study investigates the mechanisms underlying the enhanced dynamic response of reinforced concrete blast doors with four-sided restraints in confined space. Explosion tests with TNT charges ranging from 0.15 kg to 0.4 kg were conducted in a confined space,capturing overpressure loads and the dynamic response of the blast door. An internal explosion model incorporating the afterburning effect was developed using LS-DYNA software and validated against experimental data. The results reveal that the TNT afterburning effect amplifies both the initial peak overpressure and the quasi-static overpressure, resulting in increased deformation of the blast door.Within the 0.15-0.4 kg charge range, the initial overpressure peak and quasi-static overpressure increased by an average of 1.79 times and 2.21 times, respectively. Additionally, the afterburning effect enhanced the blast door's deflection by 177%. Compared to open-space scenarios, the cumulative deflection of the blast door due to repeated shock wave impacts is significantly greater in confined spaces. Furthermore, the quasi-static pressure arising from the structural constraints sustains the blast door's deflection at a high level.展开更多

This paper reports the relationships between microscopic defects of Q345 steel plate under the explosive load and its macroscopic dynamics simulation. Firstly, the defect characteristics of the steel plate were investigated by stereoscopic microscope(SM) and scanning electron microscope(SEM). At the macroscopic level, the defect was the formation of cave which was concentrated in the range of 0-3.0 cm from the explosion center, while at the microscopic level, the cavity and void formation were the typical damage characteristics. It also explains that the difference in defect morphology at different positions was the combining results of high temperature and high pressure. Secondly, the variation rules of mechanical properties of steel plate under explosive load were studied. The Arbitrary Lagrange-Euler(ALE) algorithm and multi-material fluid-structure coupling method were used to simulate the explosion process of steel plate. The accuracy of the method was verified by comparing the deformation of the simulation results with the experimental results, the pressure and stress at different positions on the surface of the steel plate were obtained. The simulation results indicated that the critical pressure causing the plate defects may be approximately 2.01 GPa. On this basis, it was found that the variation rules of surface pressure and microscopic defect area of the Q345 steel plate were strikingly similar, and the corresponding mathematical relationship between them was established. Compared with Monomolecular growth fitting models(MGFM) and Logistic fitting models(LFM), the relationship can be better expressed by cubic polynomial fitting model(CPFM). This paper illustrated that the explosive defect characteristics of metal plate at the microscopic level can be explored by analyzing its macroscopic dynamic mechanical response.

文摘This article examines the influence of annealing temperature on fracture toughness and forming limit curves of dissimilar aluminum/silver sheets.In the cold roll bonding process,after brushing and acid washing,the prepared surfaces are placed on top of each other and by rolling with reduction more than 50%,the bonding between layers is established.In this research,the roll bonding process was done at room temperature,without the use of lubricants and with a 70%thickness reduction.Then,the final thickness of the Ag/Al bilayer sheet reached 350μm by several stages of cold rolling.Before cold rolling,it should be noted that to decrease the hardness created due to plastic deformation,the roll-bonded samples were subjected to annealing heat treatment at 400℃for 90 min.Thus,the final samples were annealed at 200,300 and 400℃for 90 min and cooled in a furnace to examine the annealing temperature effects.The uniaxial tensile and microhardness tests measured mechanical properties.Also,to investigate the fracture mechanism,the fractography of the cross-section was examined by scanning electron microscope(SEM).To evaluate the formability of Ag/Al bilayer sheets,forming limit curves were obtained experimentally through the Nakazima test.The resistance of composites to failure due to cracking was also investigated by fracture toughness.The results showed that annealing increases the elongation and formability of the Ag/Al bilayer sheet while reduces the ultimate tensile strength and fracture toughness.However,the changing trend is not the same at different temperatures,and according to the results,the most significant effect is obtained at 300℃and aluminum layers.It was also determined that by increasing annealing temperature,the fracture mechanism from shear ductile with small and shallow dimples becomes ductile with deep cavities.

文摘Traffic engineering such as tunnels in various altitudinal gradient zone are at risk of accidental explosion,which can damage personnel and equipment.Accurate prediction of the distribution pattern of explosive loads and shock wave propagation process in semi-enclosed structures at various altitude environment is key research focus in the fields of explosion shock and fluid dynamics.The effect of altitude on the propagation of shock waves in tunnels was investigated by conducting explosion test and numerical simulation.Based on the experimental and numerical simulation results,a prediction model for the attenuation of the peak overpressure of tunnel shock waves at different altitudes was established.The results showed that the peak overpressure decreased at the same measurement points in the tunnel entrance under the high altitude condition.In contrast,an increase in altitude accelerated the propagation speed of the shock wave in the tunnel.The average error between the peak shock wave overpressure obtained using the overpressure prediction formula and the measured test data was less than15%,the average error between the propagation velocity of shock waves predicted values and the test data is less than 10%.The method can effectively predict the overpressure attenuation of blast wave in tunnel at various altitudes.
文摘Photo-assisted Li-O2 batteries(LOBs)have remained a prominent and growing field over the past several years.However,the presence of slow oxygen reduction reaction(ORR)and oxygen evolution reaction(OER),large charging and discharging overpotentials,and unstable cycle life lead to low energy efficiency,thus limiting their commercial application.The rational design and synthesis of photocathode materials are effective ways to solve the above existing problems of photo-assisted LOB systems.Herein,the recent advances in the design and preparation of photocathode materials for photo-assisted LOBs were summarized in this review.First,we summarize the basic principles and comprehension of the reaction mechanism for photo-assisted LOBs.The second part introduces the latest research progress on photocathode materials.The third section describes the relationship between the structureproperties and electrochemistry of different photocathodes.In addition,attempts to construct efficient photocathode materials for photo-assisted LOBs through vacancy engineering,localized surface plasmon resonance(LSPR),and heterojunction engineering are mainly discussed.Finally,a discussion of attempts to construct efficient photocathode materials using other approaches is also presented.This work will motivate the preparation of stable and efficient photocathode materials for photo-assisted LOBs and aims to promote the commercial application of rechargeable photo-assisted LOBs energy storage.

文摘The worm wheel whose undercutting characteristic is researched is a member of offsetting normal arc-toothed cylindrical worm drive.The tooth profile of the worm in its offsetting normal section is a circular arc.The normal vector used to calculate the first-type limit function is determined in the natural frame without the aid of the curvature parameter of worm helicoid.The first-type limit line is ascertained via solving the nonlinear equations iteratively.It is discovered that one first-type limit line exists on the tooth surface of worm wheel by numerical simulation,and such a line is normally located out of the meshing zone.Only one intersection point exists between the first and second-types of limit lines,and this point is a lubrication weak point.The undercutting mechanism is essentially that a part of the meshing zone near the conjugated line of worm tooth crest will come into the undercutting area and will be cut off during machining the worm wheel.The machining simulation verifies the correctness of undercutting mechanism.Moreover,a convenient and practical characteristic quantity is proposed to judge whether the undercutting exists in the whole meshing zone via computing the first-type limit function values on the worm tooth crest.
文摘The ammunition loading system manipulator is susceptible to gear failure due to high-frequency,heavyload reciprocating motions and the absence of protective gear components.After a fault occurs,the distribution of fault characteristics under different loads is markedly inconsistent,and data is hard to label,which makes it difficult for the traditional diagnosis method based on single-condition training to generalize to different conditions.To address these issues,the paper proposes a novel transfer discriminant neural network(TDNN)for gear fault diagnosis.Specifically,an optimized joint distribution adaptive mechanism(OJDA)is designed to solve the distribution alignment problem between two domains.To improve the classification effect within the domain and the feature recognition capability for a few labeled data,metric learning is introduced to distinguish features from different fault categories.In addition,TDNN adopts a new pseudo-label training strategy to achieve label replacement by comparing the maximum probability of the pseudo-label with the test result.The proposed TDNN is verified in the experimental data set of the artillery manipulator device,and the diagnosis can achieve 99.5%,significantly outperforming other traditional adaptation methods.

文摘The cavity characteristics in liquid-filled containers caused by high-velocity impacts represent an important area of research in hydrodynamic ram phenomena.The dynamic expansion of the cavity induces liquid pressure variations,potentially causing catastrophic damage to the container.Current studies mainly focus on non-deforming projectiles,such as fragments,with limited exploration of shaped charge jets.In this paper,a uniquely experimental system was designed to record cavity profiles in behind-armor liquid-filled containers subjected to shaped charge jet impacts.The impact process was then numerically reproduced using the explicit simulation program ANSYS LS-DYNA with the Structured Arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian(S-ALE)solver.The formation mechanism,along with the dimensional and shape evolution of the cavity was investigated.Additionally,the influence of the impact kinetic energy of the jet on the cavity characteristics was analyzed.The findings reveal that the cavity profile exhibits a conical shape,primarily driven by direct jet impact and inertial effects.The expansion rates of both cavity length and maximum radius increase with jet impact kinetic energy.When the impact kinetic energy is reduced to 28.2 kJ or below,the length-to-diameter ratio of the cavity ultimately stabilizes at approximately 7.
文摘The Design and manufacturing of a noble piezoresistive pressure sensor(PS) for subtle pressures(<1 kPa) were presented. Meanwhile, in the studies conducted in the field of pressure sensors, the measurement of subtle pressures has received less attention. The limitations in the inherent gauge factor in silicon, have led to the development of polymer and composite resistive sensitive elements. However,in the development of resistance sensing elements, the structure of composite elements with reinforcement core has not been used. The proposed PS had a composite sandwich structure consisting of a nanocomposite graphene layer covered by layers of PDMS at the bottom and on the top coupled with a polyimide(PI) core. Various tests were performed to analyze the PS. The primary design target was improved sensitivity, with a finite-element method(FEM) utilized to simulate the stress profile over piezoresistive elements and membrane deflection at various pressures. The PS manufacturing process is based on Laser-engraved graphene(LEG) technology and PDMS casting. Experimental data indicated that the manufactured PS exhibits a sensitivity of 67.28 mV/kPa for a pressure range of 30-300 Pa in ambient temperature.
文摘The swinging-loading process is essential for automatic artillery loading systems.This study focuses on the problems of reliability analysis that affect swinging-loading positioning accuracy.A dynamic model for a multi degree-of-freedom swinging-loading-integrated rigid-flexible coupling system is established.This model is based on the identification of key parameters and platform experiments.Based on the spatial geometric relationship between the breech and loader during modular charge transfer and the possible maximum interference depth of the modular charge,a new failure criterion for estimating the reliability of swinging-loading positioning accuracy is proposed.Considering the uncertainties in the operation of the pendulum loader,the direct probability integration method is introduced to analyze the reliability of the swinging-loading positioning accuracy under three different charge numbers.The results indicate that under two and four charges,the swinging-loading process shows outstanding reliability.However,an unstable stage appears when the swinging motion occurred under six charges,with a maximum positioning failure probability of 0.0712.A comparison between the results obtained under the conventional and proposed criteria further reveals the effectiveness and necessity of the proposed criterion.

文摘The afterburning of TNT and structural constraints in confined spaces significantly amplify the blast load,leading to severe structural damage. This study investigates the mechanisms underlying the enhanced dynamic response of reinforced concrete blast doors with four-sided restraints in confined space. Explosion tests with TNT charges ranging from 0.15 kg to 0.4 kg were conducted in a confined space,capturing overpressure loads and the dynamic response of the blast door. An internal explosion model incorporating the afterburning effect was developed using LS-DYNA software and validated against experimental data. The results reveal that the TNT afterburning effect amplifies both the initial peak overpressure and the quasi-static overpressure, resulting in increased deformation of the blast door.Within the 0.15-0.4 kg charge range, the initial overpressure peak and quasi-static overpressure increased by an average of 1.79 times and 2.21 times, respectively. Additionally, the afterburning effect enhanced the blast door's deflection by 177%. Compared to open-space scenarios, the cumulative deflection of the blast door due to repeated shock wave impacts is significantly greater in confined spaces. Furthermore, the quasi-static pressure arising from the structural constraints sustains the blast door's deflection at a high level.

文摘When the protective and protected systems are detached,the former can be allowed to absorb the kinetic energy of the impacting projectile through large deformation without considering the back face signature of the latter.This paper presents a novel double-face knitted fabric(DFKF)designed for this very impacting scenario.Shooting tests equipped with high-speed camera were used to characterize the ballistic performance with the impact velocities ranging from 100 m/s to 450 m/s.The results showed that the ballistic limits(V_(bl))of DFKF are approximately triple and double that of its counterpart UD and plain fabrics,respectively.For mass-normalized metrics,the specific energy absorption(SEA)is 250%and 350%greater than the UD and plain fabrics at their corresponding V_(bl)s.The quasi-static tests showed that the DFKF displayed greater resilience,crease recovery properties,and flexibility,which also made it an especially better candidate than UD and plain weaves for the design of umbrella surface cloth.It was also found that DFKF is dependent on yarn count and the incorporation of spandex.A prototype anti-ballistic umbrella is manufactured using DFKF made of 200D multi-filament yarn.The ballistic performance is also sensitive to the impact site when the umbrella is subjected to impact.

文摘In this study,the potential application of shaped charge jets as transient antennas for electromagnetic signal transmission was explored and an electromagnetic pulse radiation system with a shaped charge jet as a transient antenna was proposed.During the research,crucial characteristics of the transient antenna formed by a shaped charge with a 30 mm diameter,such as resonant frequency,radiation pattern,and radiation efficiency,were evaluated.The typical shaped charge jet morphology was obtained based on the simulations,in which it could insight the dynamic behavior of the shaped charge jet selected.An equivalent model experiment was employed to test the radiation efficiency,and it showed that a shorting pin loading method could increase the relative bandwidth of the jet antenna to 32.8%,and the experimental results correlate with the theoretical predictions for half-wave dipole antennas reasonably well.Additionally,variations in the diameter of the shaped charge jet were found to affect the input impedance and impedance bandwidth,while the length of the jet influenced the resonant frequency of the antenna.This suggests that altering these parameters can achieve reconfigurability of the jet antenna.

文摘The effects of nanosecond laser shock peening without coating(LSPwC)and nanosecond stacked femtosecond laser shock peening compound strengthening(LSP-CS)on the surface integrity and fretting fatigue lifetime at 500℃of GH 4169 dovetail component were investigated.The results show that LSP treatment does not significantly lead to changes in the grain size of GH 4169 alloy,but it introduces a large number of dislocations,resulting in the formation of a plastic deformation layer and residual compressive stress layer.The surface microhardness increased by 20.5%and 28.6%after being treated by LSPwC and LSP-CS,respectively.The surface residual compressive stresses were(-306.5±42.5)MPa and(-404.3±34.7)MPa,respectively;The depth of both the hardening layer and the residual compressive stress layer is 400μm,and along the cross-section with 0-100μm region after LSP-CS treatment has higher hardness and greater residual compressive stress.The fretting fatigue lifetime of the GH 4169 dovetail component at 500℃was increased by 346.8%and 494.9%,which is the result of the combined effects of the hardening layer and the residual stress layer.The LSP-CS treatment can effectively make up for the disadvantage of the LSPwC treatment,and further enhance the fretting fatigue lifetime of the GH 4169 dovetail component at high temperature.

文摘The muzzle blast overpressure induces disturbances in the flow field inside the crew compartment(FFICC)of a truck-mounted howitzer during the artillery firing.This overpressure is the primary factor preventing personnel from firing artillery within the cab.To investigate the overpressure characteristics of the FFICC,a foreign trade equipment model was used as the research object,and a numerical model was established to analyze the propagation of muzzle blast from the muzzle to the interior of the crew compartment under extreme firing condition.For comparative verification,the muzzle blast experiment included overpressure data from both the flow field outside the crew compartment(FFOCC)and the FFICC,as well as the acceleration data of the crew compartment structure(Str-CC).The research findings demonstrate that the overpressure-time curves of the FFICC exhibit multi-peak characteristics,while the pressure wave shows no significant discontinuity.The enclosed nature of the cab hinders the dissipation of pressure wave energy within the FFICC,leading to sustained high-amplitude overpressure.The frameskin structure helps attenuate the impact of muzzle blast on the FFICC.Conversely,local high overpressure caused by the convex or concave features of the cab's exterior significantly amplifies the overpressure amplitude within the FFICC.

文摘Aramid fibers,due to their relatively high inter-yarn friction,high strength,high modulus,and other characteristics,have become a typical representative of flexible anti-ballistic materials in modern warfare.Current research on the anti-penetration of aramid fabrics mostly focuses unilaterally on the structure and performance of aramid fabrics or the shape and size of projectiles,with fewer studies on the coupled effect of both on ballistic performance.This study analyzes how the coupling relationship(or size effect)between the projectile and fiber bundle dimensions affects the fabric ballistic performance from a mesoscopic scale perspective.Taking plain weave aramid fabric as the research object,considering different diameter projectiles,through a large number of ballistic impact tests and numerical simulations,parameters such as ballistic limit velocity,average energy absorption of fabric,and specific energy absorption ratio(average energy absorption of fabric divided by projectile cross-sectional area)are obtained for ballistic performance analysis.The influence law of projectile size on the ballistic performance of high-performance fabrics is as follows:The relative range of fitted ballistic limit velocity at different target positions gradually decreases and then stabilizes as the projectile diameter increases,indicating that the fabric structure effect gradually disappears at a projectile diameter of 12 mm;The average ballistic limit velocity at three impact positions,P1,P2,and P3,provides the corresponding ballistic limit velocity for 1000D aramid fabric,which increases with projectile diameter but the rate of increase slows down at an inflection point,which in this study occurs where the fabric structure effect nearly disappears at a projectile diameter of 12 mm;The energy absorption ratio increases and then decreases as the projectile diameter increases from 4 mm to 20 mm,reaching a peak at the diameter of 12 mm due to the gradual disappearance of the fabric structural effect.The projectile diameter of 12 mm corresponds to the coupling size of 11.159,which provides a size design reference for the macroscopic-based continuum models of aramid plain weave fabrics.

文摘With the development of high energy solid propellants,it is critical to evaluate the safety and power performance of solid propellants in the face of threats such as unmanned aerial vehicles(UAVs)when transporting and using them in contemporary warfare.An electric probe-type cylinder test measured the displacement-time behavior of NEPE high-energy solid propellant,and the parameters of the Jones-Wilkins-Lee(JWL)equation of state(EOS)were derived using particle swarm optimization(PSO)with the Gurney energy model.Further,the parameters of JWL-Miller EOS,determined through AUTODYN simulations,were validated by comparing airburst process simulations with experimental overpressure data.The study established a method for determining EOS parameters of high-energy propellants,achieving a high degree of accuracy.The derived parameters ensure precise modeling of propellant behavior,offering a reliable foundation for future applications in solid rocket motor performance optimization and safety assessment.
