A 2D electrohydraulic proportional directional valve is proposed, which integrates both direct and pilot operation of the valve. In this valve, the output magnetic force of the proportional solenoid is converted to rotate the spool through a thrust-torsion coupling and thus the pressure in the valve sensitive chamber is varied. The varied pressure exerted on the areas of the spool end produces a hydrostatic force to move the spool linearly, which will rotate the spool reversely. Theoretical analysis is carried to the proposed valve and the effects of the key geometric parameters on the dynamic characteristics of the 2D valve and stability are investigated. Experiments are also designed to access to the characteristics of the valve working under direct and pilot operation. The 2D electrohydraulic valve can work properly for both direct operation and pilot operation. The hysteresis and frequency response are measured and the results are within the acceptable range in practical engineering application required of the directional proportional valve.

The pounding tuned mass damper (PTMD) is a novel passive damper that absorbs and dissipates energy by an auxiliary tuned spring-mass system. Viscoelastic materials are attached to the interface of the limitation collar in the PTMD so that the energy dissipation capacity can be enhanced. Previous studies have successfully demonstrated the effectiveness of PTMD at room temperature. However, in practice, the PTMD may face a broad temperature range, which can affect the mechanical properties of the viscoelastic materials. Thus, the study of vibration control effectiveness of PTMD at different temperatures is of great significance for its practical engineering application. In this paper, a series of experiments were conducted to investigate the performance of a PTMD in a temperature-controlled environment. A PTMD device was designed to suppress the vibration of a portal frame structure and tested across environmental temperatures ranging from –20°C to 45°C. The displacement reduction ratios demonstrated the temperature robustness of the PTMD. Additionally, the numerical results validated the accuracy of the pounding force model and the performance of PTMD.

The purpose of this paper is to focus on studying its flexural behavior after different damages pre-stressed concrete hollow slab is strengthened with CFRP. By the experimental method, twelve residential pre-stressed concrete hollow slabs are tested under concentrated force at the two points of the symmetrical load in order to analyze both flexural behavior and effects factored by different bonding modes. The conclusion can be drawn that the flexural behavior of pre-stressed concrete hollow slabs strengthened with CFRP is well-tried. It provides design suggestions and reference for pre-stressed concrete hollow slabs strengthened with CFRP, and also provides an experimental basis for the repairing and reinforcing practical engineering application in Wenchuan disaster area.

Offsetting of measured data, as a basic geometric operation, has already been widely used in many areas, like reverse engineering, rapid prototyping and NC machining. However, measured data always carry typical defects like caves and singular points. A fault-tolerant offset method is proposed to create the high quality offset surface of measured data with such defects. Firstly, we generated an expansion sphere model of measured data with the radius equivalent to the offset length. Secondly, using the computational geometry application of convex hull, we acquire the data of outermost enveloping surface of this expansion sphere model. Finally, we use local MLS projection fitting method to wipe out existing defects, and generate the high-quality triangular mesh surface of the offset model. The offset surface generated by this method is suitable for practical engineering application due to its high efficiency and accuracy.

This paper predict and effectively control the temperature distribution of the steady-state and transient states of anisotropic four-layer composite materials online, knowing the density, specific heat, heat conductivity and thickness of the composite materials. Based on the transfer function, a mathematical model was established to study the dynamic characteristics of heat transfer of the composite materials. First of all, the Fourier heat transfer law was used to establish a one-dimensional Fourier heat conduction differential equation for each composite layer, and the Laplace transformation was carried out to obtain the system function. Then the approximate second-order transfer function of the system was obtained by Taylor expansion, and the Laplace inverse transformation was carried out to obtain the transfer function of the whole system in the time domain. Finally, the accuracy of the simplified analytical solutions of the first, second and third order approximate transfer functions was compared with computer simulation. The results showed that the second order approximate transfer functions can describe the dynamic process of heat transfer better than others. The research on the dynamic characteristics of heat transfer in the composite layer and the dynamic model of heat transfer in composite layer proposed in this paper have a reference value for practical engineering application. It can effectively predict the temperature distribution of composite layer material and reduce the cost of experimental measurement of heat transfer performance of materials.

Vibration control of the blade section of a wind turbine is investigated based on the sliding mode proportional-integral (SM-PI) method, i.e., sliding mode control (SMC) based on a PI controller. The structure is modeled as a 2D pretwisted blade section integrated with calculation of structural damping, which is subjected to flap/lead-lag vibrations of instability. To facilitate the hardware implementation of the control algorithm, the SM-PI method is applied to realize tracking for limited displacements and velocities. The SM-PI algorithm is a novel SMC algorithm based on the nominal model. It combines the effectiveness of the sliding mode algorithm for disturbance control and the stability of PID control for practical engineering application. The SM-PI design and stability analysis are discussed, with superiority and robustness and convergency control demonstrated. An experimental platform based on human-computer interaction using OPC technology is implemented, with position tracking for displacement and control input signal illustrated. The platform verifies the feasibility and effectiveness of the SM-PI algorithm in solving practical engineering problems, with online tuning of PI parameters realized by applying OPC technology.

Before the construction of the deep pit foundation, we must choose a project. Although there aren't many projects to be chosen as usual, we often feel that it's a very complex and hard work. Actually there is no a mature and general model to use. In this paper, the author attempted to use the theory of fuzzy math to establish a former to select the best project, meanwhile provided two ways to solve how to quantify the qualitative targets and how to determine the weights of the targets. Finally they were confirmed to be useful and successful by a practical engineering application. It is worthily to popularize these scientific methods in construction and management in deep foundation pits.

Nowadays, the high-speed economic development has caused significant consumption of energy. While the circumstance is getting severer, solar energy is taken as a kind of clean, environmental friendly resource with infinite storage that has aroused a wide public concern. Photovoltaic and solar thermal are two main categories of solar applications. Because of its high conversion efficiency, low emission and flexible installation, dish Stirling solar power technology is more preferable to be used among the solar thermal area. From the view of practical engineering application, this paper illustrates multiple focusing methods of the current dish Stirling solar power systems in detail, and the comparison of these methods are given to analyze their advantages, disadvantages and their application scenarios. It can be used for the future development of dish Stirling solar power technology and applied as a reference for large dish solar thermal power plants’ installations and tests.
