The Difference

Based on the funding project “a concrete-filled steel tube truss type half-through arch bridge (CFSTTTHAB) with the span of 220 m,” in view of the difference of tension between one pair of suspenders, this paper proposed an improved influence matrix method for the tension of a single suspender, which was developed from a conventional influence matrix. A method for adjusting suspender tension at the completed state of construction by using numerical simulation and iterative algorithm was also presented. Finite element numerical model was used to calculate the influence matrix of a single suspender. Moreover, an iterative algorithm was used to solve the adjustment value of suspender tension. Based on the proposed method, by processing several iterations, the difference between the measured and designed suspender tension would be controlled within 6% in the projects of suspender tension adjustment. Finally, the comparison between the measured and designed suspender tension at the completed state of construction proved the feasibility and accuracy satisfaction of the proposed method for engineering requirement.

The numerical model of top coal drawing in gently inclined seam is built based on PFC2d software. By comparing with the theory of drawn-body movement law, it can be obtained that the shape of top coal drawn-body accords with the theory of random medium movement. The research results show that the form of the shape equation of top coal drawn-body is uniform while the top coal caving angle is different. On the other hand, with the difference of top coal caving angle and drawing height, the shape of top coal drawn-body is differential at the meso scale, which depends on the parameters of the shape equation of top coal drawn-body.

ABSTRACTA numerical model of heat transfer by combined conduction, radiation and convection was developed using the FIDAP finite element code for NASA's Advanced Automated Directional Solidification Furnace (AADSF). The prediction of the temperature gradient in an ampoule with HgCdTe is a necessity for the evaluation of whether or not the temperature set points for furnace heaters and the details of cartridge design ensure optimal crystal growth conditions for this material and size of crystal. A prediction of crystal/melt interface shape and the flow patterns in HgCdTe are available using a separate complementary model.

A numerical model for dispersion of hydrogen in hydrogen powered automobiles was established basing on finite element method with species transport and reaction module of FLUENT. And corresponding numerical simulations were done in order to analysis the dispersion of hydrogen due to leakage from different position of the storage cylinder on the automobiles. Also, the distribution of the hazard region due to hydrogen dispersion was obtained. The simulation results show that the baffle above the cylinder can accumulate the hydrogen. Therefore, the high concentration region of hydrogen exists near the baffle. The study can provide reference for hydrogen sensor placement and safety design of hydrogen powered automobiles.

Change Trend

In order to avoid the heat transfixion among users in the concentration area of the water source heat pump, a suitable layout of pumps for drawing and recharging wells is required. Finite element method is adopted to establish the numerical model of groundwater temperature to predict the change trend of water temperature. The results of the simulation indicate that the groundwater temperature change from 6.3 to 14.2 °C in winter, and from 11.5 to 21.2 °C in summer. These results meet the requirements of the drawing and recharging water in the water source heat pump engineering and are able to avoid the heat transfixion among users. The effect of drawing and recharging water in the water source heat pump engineering to the changes of the groundwater’s temperature field can be analyzed quantitatively through establishing the proper numerical simulation which provides a reference to scientifically design the layout of pumps for drawing and recharging water.

To establish an efficient model for sonotrode system, a key part that continuously applies ultrasonic oscillation on metal foils to form solid state bond in ultrasonic consolidation equipment, this research presents modeling methods for sonotrode system. After an introduction to the construction of sonotrode system along with its operating principle, the transfer matrix method was adopted to build the model for the system consisting two ultrasonic transducers and one sonotrode. Simulation results of transfer matrix model were compared to that of finite element method. A prototype was fabricated and tested. A comparison of the resonance frequencies calculated by two modeling methods to the experimental result showed that the difference between transfer matrix model and prototype is 6.96% while the difference between finite element model and prototype is 9.26%. The proposed transfer matrix method is an efficient way to simulate dynamic performances for sonotrode system, which provide a better foundation for further optimization.

This paper focuses on the multiple crack detection of steel pipelines using PZT-based guided waves. Numerical simulations of cracked pipes based on ultrasonic guided-waves are conducted by using the ANSYS finite element software. Based on the analysis of the reflected signal, the arrival time of the crack reflection waves are determined and the crack positions are accurately evaluated by the calculation of the travel time and group velocity of the PZT-based guided waves. The crack parameters are numerically altered to determine how the parameters impact the sensitive degree of the pipe crack damage. To validate the efficiency of the numerical simulation, an experiment of the multiple crack detection for the same parameter pipe with the numerical model is performed in the laboratory, and the results match well with the numerical simulation.
