For the cement-clay slurry commonly used in dynamic water grouting, consider adding coal ash to optimize the performance of cement-clay slag composite slurry and discuss the reaction mechanism of the slurry through microchemical element analysis; the orthogonal test was used to study the influence of various factors on material setting time, solidification ratio, water segregation rate, and the optimized ratio of the slurry that was obtained by integrating the unconfined compressive strength of grouting concretion body and slurry configuration cost. The results showed that the water-solid ratio had the greatest influence on the comprehensive performance, followed by the amount of coal ash admixture. The best performance of the composite slurry was obtained with a water-solid ratio of 0.8:1 and a cement:coal ash:clay:quicklime:sodium sulfate:water mass ratio of 1:0.45:0.20:0.05:0.07:1.32. Finally, by comparing the mechanical properties of the optimized slurry and the grouting concretion body, it is proved that the optimized slurry has superior performance to meet the general grouting project requirement.

Coal mining is vulnerable to multiple kinds of threat from water incursion. Many coal seams contain dissolved H2S, which may be released during mining, seriously endangering the health of workers. Orthogonal testing was used to analyze the physical and mechanical properties of composite slurries in different proportions. The results showed slurry with a water-solid ratio of 0.8:1 to have the optimal combination of properties. A uniform experimental method was used to investigate the impact of the water-cement ratio, concentration of sodium silicate, and volume of cement-sodium silicate (CS) on the setting time and consolidating strength of CS slurry. This paper provides the appropriate application scope of two grouting materials (optimized composite slurry and CS slurry), based on experimental data and the results of a large number of in situ trials. Finally, the optimized composite slurry and cement-sodium silicate slurry were used to carry out grouting of the center auxiliary transport roadway of the 3−1 coal seam at the Ningtiaota Coal Mine, operated by the Shaanxi Coal Industry Group. It was shown that the type and formula of the slurry could be changed in a timely manner, based on the water outlet and concentration of H2S at the site, achieving successful grouting reinforcement and seepage-proofing.

In this paper, an improved immune algorithm (IIA) was proposed for the torque ripple reduction optimal design of an interior permanent magnet synchronous motor (IPMSM) for a fuel cell electric vehicle (FCEV) traction motor. When designing electric machines, both global and local solutions of optimal designs are required as design result should be compared in various aspects, including torque, torque ripple, and cogging torque. To lessen the computational burden of optimization using finite element analysis, the IIA proposes a method to efficiently adjust the generation of additional samples. The superior performance of the IIA was verified through the comparison of optimization results with conventional optimization methods in three mathematical test functions. The optimal design of an IPMSM using the IIA was conducted to verify the applicability in the design of practical electric machines.

This paper presents an improved design, complete analysis, and prototype development of high torque-to-mass ratio Magneto-Rheological (MR) clutches. The proposed MR clutches are intended as the main actuation mechanism of a robotic manipulator with five degrees of freedom. Multiple steps to increase the toque-to-mass ratio of the clutch are evaluated and implemented in one design. First, we focus on the Hall sensors’ configuration. Our proposed MR clutches feature embedded Hall sensors for the indirect torque measurement. A new arrangement of the sensors with no effect on the magnetic reluctance of the clutch is presented. Second, we improve the magnetization of the MR clutch. We utilize a new hybrid design that features a combination of an electromagnetic coil and a permanent magnet for improved torque-to-mass ratio. Third, the gap size reduction in the hybrid MR clutch is introduced and the effect of such reduction on maximum torque and the dynamic range of MR clutch is investigated. Finally, the design for a pair of MR clutches with a shared magnetic core for antagonistic actuation of the robot joint is presented and experimentally validated. The details of each approach are discussed and the results of the finite element analysis are used to highlight the required engineering steps and to demonstrate the improvements achieved. Using the proposed design, several prototypes of the MR clutch with various torque capacities ranging from 15 to 200 N·m are developed, assembled, and tested. The experimental results demonstrate the performance of the proposed design and validate the accuracy of the analysis used for the development.

Open Ocean Aquaculture

Aquaculture is the fastest growing food producing sector in the world. Considerable interest exists in developing open ocean aquaculture in response to a shortage of suitable, sheltered inshore locations. The harsh weather conditions experienced offshore lead to a focus on new structure concepts, remote monitoring and a higher degree of automation in order to keep the cost of structures and operations within an economically viable range. This paper proposes tensegrity structures in the design of flexible structures for offshore aquaculture. The finite element analysis program ABAQUS™ has been used to investigate stiffness properties and performance of tensegrity structures when subjected to various forced deformations and hydrodynamic load conditions. The suggested concept, the tensegrity beam, shows promising stiffness properties in tension, compression and bending, which are relevant for development of open ocean aquaculture construction for high energy environments. When designing a tensegrity beam, both pre-stress and spring stiffness should be considered to ensure the desired structural properties. A large strength to mass ratio and promising properties with respect to control of geometry, stiffness and vibration could make tensegrity an enabling technology for future developments.

This paper presents the results of an experimental study on the behavior of fly ash-, bottom ash-, and blended fly and bottom ash-based geopolymer concrete (GPC) cured at ambient temperature. Four bathes of GPC were manufactured to investigate the influence of the fly ash-to-bottom ash mass ratio on the microstructure, compressive strength and elastic modulus of GPC. All the results indicate that the mass ratio of fly ash-to-bottom ash significantly affects the microstructure and mechanical properties of GPCs

Abstract In this paper, we study the energy absorption of metamaterials composed of unit cells whose special geometry makes the cross-sectional area and the volume of the bodies generated from them constant (for the same enclosing box dimensions). After a parametric description of such special geometries, we analyzed by finite element analysis the deformation of the metamaterials we have designed during compression. We 3D printed the designed metamaterials from plastic to subject them to real compression. The results of the finite element analysis were compared with the real compaction results. Then, for each test specimen, we plotted its compaction curve. By fitting a polynomial to the compaction curves and integrating it (area under the curve), the energy absorption of the samples can be obtained. As a result of these investigations, we drew a conclusion about the relationship between energy absorption and cell number.

Purpose. To evaluate the feasibility of utilizing a system of SMP acrylates for a thrombectomy device by determining an optimal crosslink density that provides both adequate recovery stress for blood clot removal and sufficient strain capacity to enable catheter delivery. Methods. Four thermoset acrylic copolymers containing benzyl methacrylate (BzMA) and bisphenol A ethoxylate diacrylate (Mn∼512, BPA) were designed with differing thermomechanical properties. Finite element analysis (FEA) was performed to ensure that the materials were able to undergo the strains imposed by crimping, and fabricated devices were subjected to force-monitored crimping, constrained recovery, and bench-top thrombectomy. Results. Devices with 25 and 35 mole% BPA exhibited the highest recovery stress and the highest brittle response as they broke upon constrained recovery. On the contrary, the 15 mole% BPA devices endured all testing and their recovery stress (5 kPa) enabled successful bench-top thrombectomy in 2/3 times, compared to 0/3 for the devices with the lowest BPA content. Conclusion. While the 15 mole% BPA devices provided the best trade-off between device integrity and performance, other SMP systems that offer recovery stresses above 5 kPa without increasing brittleness to the point of causing device failure would be more suitable for this application.

The blockchain technology achieves security by sacrificing prohibitive storage and computation resources. However, in mobile systems, the mobile devices usually offer weak computation and storage resources. It prohibits the wide application of the blockchain technology. Edge computing appears with strong resources and inherent decentralization, which can provide a natural solution to overcoming the resource-insufficiency problem. However, applying edge computing directly can only relieve some storage and computation pressure. There are some other open problems, such as improving confirmation latency, throughput, and regulation. To this end, we propose an edge-computing-based lightweight blockchain framework (ECLB) for mobile systems. This paper introduces a novel set of ledger structures and designs a transaction consensus protocol to achieve superior performance. Moreover, considering the permissioned blockchain setting, we specifically utilize some cryptographic methods to design a pluggable transaction regulation module. Finally, our security analysis and performance evaluation show that ECLB can retain the security of Bitcoin-like blockchain and better performance of ledger storage cost in mobile devices, block mining computation cost, throughput, transaction confirmation latency, and transaction regulation cost.
