Electrohydraulic Stewart platform is a multi-input and multi-output mechanical-hydraulic coupling system, which has the advantages of large power-to-weight ratio and high accuracy. It has been widely used in construction machinery, aerospace, and other fields. In the actual working process, especially in the high-speed motion, the Stewart platform movement process will produce a large impact and vibration and then affect the stability, accuracy, and service life of the platform. When the frequency of the external excitation coincides with the natural frequency of the electrohydraulic Stewart platform, it may cause the failure of the platform. Therefore, based on the relationship between the volumetric elastic modulus of the gas-bearing oil and the hydraulic stiffness of the leg, a mechanical-hydraulic coupling dynamic model of the electrohydraulic Stewart platform was established, and the natural frequencies and modal shapes of the platform were analyzed under typical conditions. The sensitivity calculation formula of the natural frequency of the system on the upper platform mass and the hydraulic stiffness of the outer leg is given by an analytical method, and the influence law of the upper platform mass and the outer leg stiffness on the natural frequency and the sensitivity of the electrohydraulic Stewart platform under typical conditions is discussed. This study can provide theoretical support for dynamic optimization of the electrohydraulic Stewart platform.

Appropriate pretreatment of proteins and addition of xanthan gum (XG) has the potential to improve the stability of oil-in-water (O/W) emulsions. However, the factors that regulate the enhancement and the mechanism are still not clear, which restricts the realization of improving the emulsion stability by directional design of its structure. Therefore, the effects of whey protein micro-gel particles (WPMPs) and WPMPs-XG complexes on the stability of O/W emulsion were investigated in this article to provide theoretical support. WPMPs with different structures were prepared by pretreatment (controlled high-speed shear treatment of heat-set WPC gels) at pH 3.5–8.5. The impact of initial WPC structure and XG addition on Turbiscan Indexes, mean droplet size and the peroxide values of O/W emulsions was investigated. The results indicate that WPMPs and XG can respectively inhibit droplet coalescence and gravitational separation to improve the physical stability of WPC-stabilized O/W emulsions. The pretreatment significantly enhanced the oxidative stability of WPC-stabilized O/W emulsions. The addition of XG did not necessarily enhance the oxidative stability of O/W emulsions. Whether the oxidative stability of the O/W emulsion with XG is increased or decreased depends on the interface structure of the protein-XG complex. This study has significant implications for the development of novel structures containing lipid phases that are susceptible to oxidation.

Abstract In the ocean environment, the ship is prone to motions in six directions of roll, pitch, yaw, sway, surge, and heave under the influence of the waves. It will affect not only the airworthiness of the ship, but also have an adverse impact for the crew and the board’s equipment. In view of this situation, a new type of ship anti-rolling device has been proposed, which is based on the structural characteristics of the Stewart platform with precise adjustment of the position of the load platform and the stability of the gyroscope under the high-speed rotation of the rotor. Firstly, theoretical analysis of the device conducted with theorem of moment of momentum method shows that the device has practical feasibility and effectiveness. Then, a solid model has been established in Creo2.0 software, and the model has been imported into the dynamic analysis software MSC.ADAMS. Finally, using torque as the exciting force to simulate the impact of the wave, the dynamic simulation of the overall model has been analyzed. The simulation results show that such device has good anti-rolling performance under certain waves, indicating that the new anti-rolling device based on the Stewart platform and the three-axis gyroscope has effective reliability and practicability.

In the past few years, it has become a tendency to develop machinery of high speeds and high precision. In order to meet the need for high-speed manufacturing of high precision components, the machine tools structure must be very stiff and have high cutting stability levels. Should the process of the firsthand milling be unstable, the effects include cutting tool breakages, decrease in surface accuracy and could even shorten the machine tolls lifespan. Thus, in the manufacturing of milling, chattering often causes problems for the manufacturer. To prevent cases of milling chattering, there is a need to use a chatter stability lobe to predict the chatter stability and to analyze the effect the modal-parameter has on the stability of milling. This research paper uses the Zero-Order Analytical Method (ZOA) to analyze and compare the effects modal-parameter (natural frequency, damping ratio, modal stiffness) has on the stability of the milling system. The results show that level of stiffness and the damping ratio influences the vertical shape of the chatter stability lobes while the natural frequency affects the lateral shape of the lobes.

Using an experimental design approach, researchers altered process parameters and material prop-erties to stabilize the curtain of a pilot curtain coater at high speeds. Part I of this paper identifies the four significant variables that influence curtain stability. The boundary layer air removal system was critical to the stability of the curtain and base sheet roughness was found to be very important. A shear thinning coating rheology and higher curtain heights improved the curtain stability at high speeds. The sizing of the base sheet affected coverage and cur-tain stability because of its effect on base sheet wettability. The role of surfactant was inconclusive. Part II of this paper will report on further optimization of curtain stability with these four variables using a D-optimal partial-facto-rial design.

High-speed railway "Moscow-Kazan" by the draft crosses the Volga (Kuibyshev reservoir) in Chuvashia region 500 m below the village of New Kushnikovo. The crossing plot is a right-bank landslide slope with a stepped surface. Its height is 80 m; the slope steepness -15-16o. The authors should assess the risk of landslides and recommend anti-landslide measures to ensure the safety of the future bridge. For this landslide factors have been analyzed, slope stability assessment has been performed and recommendations have been suggested. The role of the following factors have been analyzed: 1) hydrologic - erosion and abrasion reservoir and runoff role; 2) lithologyc (the presence of Urzhum and Northern Dvina horizons of plastically deformable rocks, displacement areas); 3) hydrogeological (the role of perched, ground and interstratal water); 4) geomorphological (presence of the elemental composition of sliding systems and their structure in the relief); 5) exogeodynamic (cycles and stages of landslide systems development, mechanisms and relationship between landslide tiers of different generations and blocks contained in tiers). As a result 6-7 computational models at each of the three engineering-geological sections were made. The stability was evaluated by the method “of the leaning slope”. It is proved that the slope is in a very stable state and requires the following measures: 1) unloading (truncation) of active heads blocks of landslide tiers) and the edge of the plateau, 2) regulation of the surface and groundwater flow, 3) concrete dam, if necessary.

AbstractIn plasma spraying, instabilities and fluctuations of the plasma jet have a significant influence on the particle in-flight temperatures and velocities, thus affecting the coating properties. This work introduces a new method to analyze the stability of plasma jets using high-speed videography. An approach is presented, which digitally examines the images to determine the size of the plasma jet core. By correlating this jet size with the acquisition time, a time-dependent signal of the plasma jet size is generated. In order to evaluate the stability of the plasma jet, this signal is analyzed by calculating its coefficient of variation cv. The method is validated by measuring the known difference in stability between a single-cathode and a cascaded multi-cathode plasma generator. For this purpose, a design of experiment, covering a variety of parameters, is conducted. To identify the cause of the plasma jet fluctuations, the frequency spectra are obtained and subsequently interpreted by means of the fast Fourier transformation. To quantify the significance of the fluctuations on the particle in-flight properties, a new single numerical parameter is introduced. This parameter is based on the fraction of the time-dependent signal of the plasma jet in the relevant frequency range.
