Abstract In many types of spacecraft and missile systems, the vehicle’s skin cutting are carried out by using the mild-detonating fuse (MDF) or the flexible linear shaped charge (FLSC). MDF is a very thin metal tube that filled with explosive charges and has an axisymmetric shape. FLSC is an inverted chevron-shaped flexible tube that generates hypervelocity jet to penetrate or cut thick metal structures. In this study, the characteristics of MDF and FLSC for metal plate cutting are identified. First, the fracture mechanisms due to MDF and FLSC are numerically analyzed in 2-D plane strain using ANSYS AUTODYN, one of commercial hydrocodes. By using proposed numerical scheme, the effects of the cutting methods and the design parameters on cutting performance, fragmentation and backward shock waves are studied; the pros and cons of MDF and FLSC for metal plate cutting are clarified. The numerical method and the results of this study provide the guidelines to select metal plate cutting method and help to establish the design method for optimal metal plate cutting; the number of the expensive explosive experiments can be reduced.

Modular design, Axiomatic design (AD) and Theory of inventive problem solving (TRIZ) have been increasingly popularized in concept design of modern mechanical product. Each method has their own advantages and drawbacks. The benefit of modular design is reducing the product design period, and AD has the capability of problem analysis, while TRIZ’s expertise is innovative idea generation. According to the complementarity of these three approaches, an innovative and systematic methodology is proposed to design big complex mechanical system. Firstly, the module partition is executed based on scenario decomposition. Then, the behavior attributes of modules are listed to find the design contradiction, including motion form, spatial constraints, and performance requirements. TRIZ tools are employed to deal with the contradictions between behavior attributes. The decomposition and mapping of functional requirements and design parameters are carried out to construct the structural hierarchy of each module. Then, modules are integrated considering the connections between each other. Finally, the operation steps in application scenario are designed in temporal and spatial dimensions. Design of cutter changing robot for shield tunneling machine is taken as an example to validate the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed method.

Aerostatic Spindle

The fluid–structure interaction (FSI) effect has a significant impact on the static and dynamic performance of aerostatic spindles, which should be fully considered when developing a new product. To enhance the overall performance of aerostatic spindles, a two-round optimization design method for aerostatic spindles considering the FSI effect is proposed in this article. An aerostatic spindle is optimized to elaborate the design procedure of the proposed method. In the first-round design, the geometrical parameters of the aerostatic bearing were optimized to improve its stiffness. Then, the key structural dimension of the aerostatic spindle is optimized in the second-round design to improve the natural frequency of the spindle. Finally, optimal design parameters are acquired and experimentally verified. This research guides the optimal design of aerostatic spindles considering the FSI effect.

Biomimetic Surface

Nature has long been an important source of inspiration for mankind to develop artificial ways to mimic the remarkable properties of biological systems. In this work, a new method was explored to fabricate a biomimetic engineering surface comprising both the shark-skin, the shark body denticle, and rib morphology. It can help reduce water resistance and the friction contact area as well as accommodate lubricant. The lubrication theory model was established to predict the effect of geometric parameters of a biomimetic surface on tribological performance. The model has been proved to be feasible to predict tribological performance by the experimental results. The model was then used to investigate the effect of the grid textured surface on frictional performance of different geometries. The investigation was aimed at providing a rule for deriving the design parameters of a biomimetic surface with good lubrication characteristics. Results suggest that: (i) the increase in depression width ratio Λ decreases its corresponding coefficient of friction, and (ii) the small coefficient of friction is achievable when Λ is beyond 0.45. Superposition of depth ratio Γ and angle's couple under the condition of Λ < 0.45 affects the value of friction coefficient. It shows the decrease in angle decreases with the increase in dimension depth Γ.

In this paper, an active design method of meshing line for a spiral bevel gear mechanism with nonrelative sliding is presented. First, the general meshing line equations for a nonrelative sliding transmission mechanism between two orthogonal axes are proposed based on the active design parameters. Then, parametric equations for contact curves on the drive and driven spiral bevel gears are deduced by coordinate transformation of the meshing line equations. Further to this, parametric equations for the tooth surface of each bevel gear are derived according to the conical spiral motion of a generatrix circle along the calculated contact curves. Finally, a set of numerical examples is presented based on two types of motion equation of the meshing points. Material prototypes are fabricated and experimentally tested to validate the kinematic performance of the functionally designed spiral bevel gear set.

<div>Identification of static nonlinear elements (i.e., nonlinear elements whose outputs depend only on the present value of inputs) is crucial for the success of system identification tasks. Identification of static nonlinear elements though can pose several challenges. Two of the main challenges are: (1) mathematical models describing the elements being unknown and thus requiring black-box identification; and (2) collection of sufficiently informative measurements. With the aim of addressing the two challenges, we propose in this paper a method of predetermining informative measurement points offline (i.e., prior to conducting experiments or seeing any measured data), and using those measurements for online model calibration. Since we deal with an unknown model structure scenario, a high order polynomial model is assumed. Over fit and under fit avoidance are achieved via checking model convergence via an iterative means. Model dependent information maximization is done via a D-optimal design of experiments strategy. Due to experiments being designed offline and being designed prior to conducting measurements, this method eases off the computation burden at the point of conducting measurements. The need for in-the-loop information maximization while conducting measurements is avoided. We conclude by comparing the proposed D-optimal design method with a method of in-the-loop information maximization and point out the pros and cons. The method is demonstrated for the single-input-single-output (SISO) static nonlinear element case. The method can be extended to MISO systems as well.</div>
