Lubricant leakage will inevitably occur during the working process of wellbore trajectory control tools. Even including the lubricant compensation system, serious leakage will still cause lacks lubrication of the internal mechanical structure as well as electronic system damaged by external infiltration fluid, especially when it comes to battery sub and other electronic equipment. Seal system leakage prediction method was presented based on the assumption of steady gap flow. It is assumed that there is a constant gap between the lip seal and the rotating shaft, the gap height is determined by oil film thickness, and the length of the gap was determined by the contact analysis using the Mooney–Rivlin constitutive model. The analysis results show that the contact length between the primary seal lip and the rotary shaft is about 0.1 mm under the condition of ensuring the contact between the deputy seal lip and the rotary shaft. The overall lubricant leakage finite element analysis model was established, and the relationship between the internal lubricant pressure of the tool and the total leakage was obtained. The results of analysis indicate that under the internal pressure of 0.03 MPa, the lubricant leakage is approximately 6 mL/h, which was verified by experiments.

Focusing on the massive open online course (MOOC) platform, the purpose of this study is to realize personalized adaptive learning according to the needs and abilities of each learner. To this end, the author created a personalized adaptive learning behaviour analysis model, and designed a personalized MOOC platform based on the model. Through the analysis of learning behaviours on the MOOC platform, the model digs deep into the pattern of learning behaviours, and lays the basis for personalized intervention in the learning process. The comparison ex-periments show that our prediction method is more accurate than the other predic-tion algorithms. This research sheds new light on the design of learner-specific MOOC platform.

Considering thermal residual stress and initial matrix crack, the cylinder FEM analysis model for C/SiC tow was established. The cohesive element and damage criterions were introduced to simulation the initiation and propagation of interphase crack processes of C/SiC composites. The thermal residual stresses release with the initial matrix crack and the cracking on interphase. The interphase crack length was dominated by the performance of interphase. Analysis demonstrated that the CZM model can simulate well the thermal residual stress and the delamination of the interphase.

Shape memory alloys are well known to be used as a ring element for connect coupling two pipes in various fields. In the case of structural and functional designs for a coupling ring of shape memory alloy, we have considered the shape memory effects in multi-axial stress and strain using volumetric strain in each element, so as to make FEM analysis more effective for optimizing the shape and the amount of pre-deformation. Using some uni-axial fundamental test results, as property parameters for FEM, the modeling method simulating the deformation behavior of a coupling ring has been eveloped in order to optimize the configuration and size of a coupling ring. The validity of this FEM modeling method was confirmed by verification experiments.

Purpose This paper aims to propose a method for manufacturing multi-material monolithic structures with flexible materials to construct the elastic body by using a dual-nozzle three-dimensional printer to develop a piezoelectric (PZT)-driven micropositioning stage with three degrees of freedom (3-DOF) and flexure hinges. Design/methodology/approach Polylactic acid (PLA) and nylon were used for the lever structure’s frame and flexure hinge, respectively. Additionally, the stage consisted of three PZT actuators for fine movement in the nanometer scale in 3-DOF (x, y and θ-directions). For the design of the stage, the kinematic analysis model and the finite element method (FEM) analysis was undertaken for comparing between PLA with nylon (multi-material), PLA (single material) and aluminum (conventional-material). In addition, two verification experiments were implemented for the fabricated prototype stage. First, to evaluate various assessments (lever ratio, hysteresis, coupling error and resolution), a measurement is carried out using the three capacitive sensors. Then, a two-camera-vision measurement experiment was performed to verify the displacement and lever ratio over the full-scale working range of the fabricated positioning stage, and the results from the experimentation and the FEM analysis were compared. Findings The authors confirmed enhancements in the properties of the lever structure frame, which requires stiffness and of the hinge, which requires flexibility for elastic deformation. Comparing FEM analysis and experimental results, although the performance as shown by experimental results was lower: the maximum difference being 3.4% within the end-point working range; this difference was sufficient to be a plausible alternative for the aluminum-based stage. Originality/value Multi-material monolithic-structure fabrication has an effective advantage in improving the performance of the stage, by using a combination of materials capable of reinforcing the desired characteristics in the necessary parts. It was verified that the fabricated stage can substitute the aluminum-based stage and can achieve a higher performance than single-material stages. Thus, precise-positioning stages can be manufactured in many kinds of structures with various properties and contribute to weight reduction and low costs for application equipment.
