The inlet oil temperature of the rotor system with high-speed and light-load turbocharger will change during operation, which will change the vibration characteristics of the rotor system and even cause vibration accidents. Taking a certain type of high-speed and light-load turbocharger rotor system as the research object, the changes in oil film viscosity, friction power consumption, oil film temperature rise, and ring speed ratio with the inlet oil temperature of floating ring bearings are analyzed. A dynamic finite-element model of the turbocharger rotor–floating-ring-bearing system is constructed, and the finite-element model is verified through the critical speed and colormap spectrogram. The Newmark integral method is used to analyze the nonlinear transient response of the rotor system, and the influence of the inlet oil temperature on the vibration response characteristics of the rotor system is studied. The results show that an increase in the inlet oil temperature leads to a decrease in the internal and external oil film viscosities, frictional power consumption, temperature rise, and an increase in the ring speed ratio. When the inlet oil temperature increases from 50 °C to 130 °C, the amplitude of the inner oil film oscillation will gradually decrease, but the amplitude of the outer oil film vortex will gradually increase, and the journal speed point where the inner oil film oscillation and the outer oil film vortex will appear about 30% in advance. In summary, the rotor vibration is better when the inlet oil temperature is about 90 °C. The conclusion of this paper can provide a theoretical reference for selecting the operating parameters of the rotor system with the least vibration for high-speed light-load turbochargers.

Abstract To study the overall vibration characteristics of the sprag clutch-flexible rotor system (SC-FRS) under high-speed operating conditions, a finite element model of SC-FRS considering rotor flexibility and bearing support stiffness is established based on the proposed calculation method of the stiffness matrix. According to this model, the natural frequency and mode shape of the system are calculated, and the correctness of the model is verified by comparing it with the calculation results of ANSYS software. Under the action of unbalance, the bending-torsion coupled vibration and the dynamic load of the inter-shaft bearings are analyzed, and it is found that the resonant peak in the torsional direction has the same resonance frequency as that in the bending direction. A test rig for the sprag clutch-rotor system is built, and the axis trajectory and critical speed are tested. The test results show that the finite element model of SC-FRS can accurately describe the vibration characteristics of the system.

A finite element model of knee human ligaments was developed and validated to predict the injury potential of occupants in high speed frontal automotive collisions. Dynamic failure properties of ligaments were modeled to facilitate the development of more realistic dynamic representation of the human lower extremities when subjected to a high strain rate. Uniaxial impulsive impact loads were applied to porcine medial collateral ligament-bone complex with strain rates up to145 s−1. From test results, the failure load was found to depend on ligament geometric parameters and on the strain rate applied. The information obtained was then integrated into a finite element model of the knee ligaments with the potential to be used also for representation of ligaments in other regions of the human body. The model was then validated against knee ligament dynamic tolerance tests found in literature. Results obtained from finite element simulations during the validation process agreed with the outcomes reported by literature findings encouraging the use of this ligament model as a powerful and innovative tool to estimate ligament human response in high speed frontal automotive collisions.

Considering tip relief, a finite element model of a spur gear pair in mesh is established by ANSYS software. Time-varying mesh stiffness under different amounts of tip relief is calculated based on the finite element model. Then, a finite element model of a geared rotor system is developed by MATLAB software considering the effects of time-varying mesh stiffness and constant load torque. Emphasis is given to the effects of tip relief on the lateral–torsional coupling vibration responses of the system. The results show that as the amount of tip relief increases, the saltation of time-varying mesh stiffness reduces at the position of approach action and transition mesh region from the single tooth to double tooth. A number of primary resonances and some super-harmonic of gears 1 and 2 are excited by time-varying mesh stiffness in amplitude frequency responses. As the amount of tip relief increases, some super-harmonic responses change due to the variation in the higher frequency components of time-varying mesh stiffness. After tip relief, the vibration and meshing force decrease obviously at lower mesh frequency range except at some resonance frequencies; however, tip relief is not effective in reducing the vibration at higher mesh frequency range. The amplitude fluctuation of the vibration acceleration reduces evidently after considering tip relief, which is not remarkable with the increase of meshing frequency.

To solve the problems associated with multiple-vehicle simulations of railway vehicles including large scale modelling, long computing time, low analysis efficiency, need for high performance computing, and large storage space, the middle part of the train where no plastic deformation occurs in the vehicle body was simplified using mass and beam elements. Comparative analysis of the collisions between a single railway vehicle (including head and intermediate vehicles before, and after, simplification) and a rigid wall showed that variations in impact kinetic energy, internal energy, and impact force (after simplification) are consistent with those of the unsimplified model. Meanwhile, the finite element model of a whole high-speed train was assembled based on the simplified single-vehicle model. The numbers of nodes and elements in the simplified finite element model of the whole train were 63.4% and 61.6%, respectively, compared to those of the unsimplified model. The simplified whole train model using the above method was more accurate than the multibody model. In comparison to the full-size finite element model, it is more specific, had more rapid computational speed, and saved a large amount of computational power and storage space. Finally, the velocity and acceleration data for every car were discussed through the analysis of the collision between two simplified trains at various speeds.
