The variational approach, which is used to solve the Reynolds equation based on the assumption of constant temperature, is extended to the generalized Reynolds equation calculation. The direct solution method of the generalized Reynolds equation is presented, where the pressure of the nodal points and the cavitation zone boundary of the film can be determined without iterating. A simplified one-dimensional thermal model is built on the basis of the original two-dimensional thermal model. The model not only concerns the thermal effects of the lubricating film, but also offers a direct and rapid numerical algorithm for solving lubricating film temperature field. The numerical results of the temperature distributions for the one model are in good agreement with experiment, and less computing time is needed.

A general THD theory and a comparison between theoretical and experimental results are presented. The generalized Reynolds equation, the energy equation in the film, and the heat transfer equation in the bush and the shaft are solved simultaneously. The cavitation in the film, the lubricant recirculation, and the reversed flow at the inlet are taken into account. In addition, the thermoelastic deformations are also calculated in order to define the film thickness. Good agreement is found between experimental data and theoretical results which include thermoelastic displacements of both the shaft and the bush.

Abstract A first cavitation modeling with thermal effects for oil/refrigerant solutions lubricated ElastoHydroDynamic (EHD) point contacts is reported in this work. The solubility of the oil/refrigerant system is introduced into the Generalized Reynolds equation coupled with the elasticity equation and the energy conservation equation. The numerical results show a very good agreement with the published experimental results concerning film thickness prediction. Moreover, the present model describes the cavitation region on a physical basis. A discussion with other cavitation models from the literature is proposed. It puts into light the necessity of taking into account the solubility of the refrigerant into oil for such problems. Compared to pure oil, oil/refrigerant solutions can potentially reduce the amount of liquid oil for the next contact due to its higher cavitation intensity.

The effects of leakage and blockage on the acoustic performance of particle filters have been examined by using one-dimensional acoustic analysis and experimental methods. First, the transfer matrix of a filter system connected to inlet and outlet pipes with conical sections is measured using a two-load method. Then, the transfer matrix of a particle filter only is extracted from the experiments by applying inverse matrices of the conical sections. In the analytical approaches, the one-dimensional acoustic model for the leakage between the filter and the housing is developed. The predicted transmission loss shows a good agreement with the experimental results. Compared to the baseline, the leakage between the filter and housing increases transmission loss at a certain frequency and its harmonics. In addition, the transmission loss for the system with a partially blocked filter is measured. The blockage of the filter also increases the transmission loss at higher frequencies. For the simplicity of experiments to identify the leakage and blockage, the reflection coefficients at the inlet of the filter system have been measured using two different downstream conditions: open pipe and highly absorptive terminations. The experiments show that with highly absorptive terminations, it is easier to see the difference between the baseline and the defects.

Loosely packed sand that is saturated with water can liquefy during an earthquake, potentially causing significant damage. Once the shaking is over, the excess pore water pressures that developed during the earthquake gradually dissipate, while the surface of the soil settles, in a process called post-liquefaction reconsolidation. When examining reconsolidation, the soil is typically divided in liquefied and solidified parts, which are modelled separately. The aim of this paper is to show that this fragmentation is not necessary. By assuming that the hydraulic conductivity and the one-dimensional stiffness of liquefied sand have real, positive values, the equation of consolidation can be numerically solved throughout a reconsolidating layer. Predictions made in this manner show good agreement with geotechnical centrifuge experiments. It is shown that the variation of one-dimensional stiffness with effective stress and void ratio is the most crucial parameter in accurately capturing reconsolidation.

Age estimation is an important method to solve the face recognition with age change, due to the feature extraction,in the process of age estimation study, PCA dimensional reduction method is usually used to reduce dimension with excessive dimension.PCA refers that transform the sample matrix into one-dimensional vector first, then the one-dimensional vectors form a matrix, solve the eigenvector. 2D-PCA applied in this paper is not required to transform the sample matrix into one-dimensional vector, but construct scatter matrix with data matrix directly, accordingly, the computing time is reduced and a good performance evaluation is achieved in the test.

Abstract A new method is developed to calculate characteristics of contaminant transport (including non-classical regimes) in statistically homogeneous sharply contrasting media. A transport integro-differential equation in the space-time representation is formulated on the basis of the model earlier proposed by one of the authors (L. M.). Analytical expressions for transport characteristics in limiting time intervals in the one-dimensional case are derived. An interpolation form is proposed for the integral kernel of the transport equation. On a basis of this expression, an algorithm is developed for numerical modelling the contaminant transport in statistically homogeneous sharply contrasting media. Trial numerical 1D calculations are performed based on this algorithm. Good agreement was found between the numerical simulation results and the asymptotic analytical expressions.

The present state of knowledge on the hydraulic lock phenomena of oil hydraulic control system components is reviewed briefly. A general one-dimensional solution of the Reynolds equation which governs hydraulic lock is presented. The solution embraces the particular solutions of past workers, and allows ready solution for piston-cylinder configurations for which a one-dimensional solution is adequate. A general method for making full solutions of the Reynolds equation is presented, requiring the use of a digital computer for particular solutions. Pressure distribution, the lateral force on the piston which produces hydraulic lock, and the location of the lateral force can be obtained. The commonly occurring case of a single-land piston lying tilted in its bore is examined in detail. The limit of accuracy of a one-dimensional solution is clearly shown by illustrating the discrepancies between the one-dimensional and two-dimensional solutions for several configurations.

To study the effects of surface roughness and additives in lubrication, a generalized form of Reynolds equation is derived by taking into account the roughness interaction zones adjacent to the moving rough surfaces as sparsely porous matrices and purely hydrodynamic film of micropolar fluid characterizing the lubricant with additives. A particular, one-dimensional form of this equation is used to study these effects on the elastohydrodynamic (EHD) minimum film thickness at the inlet, between two rough rollers. It is shown that for the low permeability of the roughness zone, the EHD film thickness increases as the mean height of the asperities increases, whereas for the high permeability it decreases. The EHD film thickness is also found to increase with the concentration of the additives and the molecular size of the particles. These results are in conformity at least qualitatively, with various experimental and theoretical investigations, cited in the paper.


The vibrational behaviour of an elastic strip with varying curvature is investigated. The case of vibration which is predominantly transverse is considered, and it is shown that when the strip is S-shaped, certain of the normal modes may be confined to the vicinity of the inflection point of the S by a process of total internal reflection from points where the curvature reaches critical values. This confinement can produce modes with extraordinarily low damping factors. Asymptotic analysis is compared with experimental measurements on a strip in several S-shaped configurations, and very good agreement is demonstrated for modal frequencies and shapes. Mathematically, the lower modes turn out to be analogous to those of the one-dimensional harmonic oscillator in quantum mechanics. This mode confinement behaviour occurs for all waveguide branches except the lowest, ‘bending beam ’, branch. In this particular case, wave propagation is insensitive to curvature. However, an interesting phenomenon associated with curvature is found : the successive mode shapes do not display the normal alternation of symmetry and antisymmetry with respect to the centre of the strip. The effect is shown to result from the constraint on axial movement produced by fixed end conditions. For the geometry of the experiments, this constraint raises the frequencies of antisymmetric modes in a characteristic way while leaving the symmetric modes unaltered, thus changing the mode sequence. Theory is developed which gives reasonable quantitive agreement with the observations.
