A general method for reliability sensitivity analysis and reliability optimization design of planar slider crank mechanism with two clearance joints was presented. A continuous contact force model considering energy dissipation was employed to estimate the contact force acting on the clearance joint. The Monte Carlo method was used to analyze the reliability sensitivity. In addition, based on the Kriging method, a surrogate model was constructed with consideration of explicit function expression. The precision and reliability of the presented method have been successfully demonstrated by numerical simulation. The results show that the number and position of clearance joint considered have a great influence on the maximum allowable displacement of the slider. The changing of the reliability sensitivity for the mean and variance of several random variables has certain regularity. Compared with the determinacy optimization design, the reliability optimization design presented here shows better dynamical performances.

Fatigue failure is the typical failure mode of mechanical components subjected to random load-time history. It is important to ensure that the mechanical components have an expected life with a high reliability. However, it is difficult to reduce the influence of factors that affect the fatigue reliability and thus a reliability sensitivity analysis is necessary. An approach of fatigue reliability sensitivity analysis of complex mechanical components under random excitation is presented. Firstly, load spectra are derived using a theoretical method. A design of experiment (DOE) is performed to study the stresses of dangerous points according to the change of design parameters of the mechanical component. By utilizing a Back-Propagation (BP) algorithm, the explicit function relation between stresses and design parameters is formulated and thus solves the problem of implicit limit state function. Based on the damage accumulation (DA) approach, the probability perturbation method, the fourth-moment method, the Edgeworth expansion is adopted to calculate the fatigue reliability and reliability-based sensitivity. The fatigue reliability sensitivity analysis of a train wheel is performed as an example. The results of reliability are compared with that obtained using Monte Carlo simulation. The reliability sensitivity of design parameters in the train wheel is analyzed.

Targeting at realizing analysis of resonance reliability sensitivity for cam mechanism system, considering the uncertainty of the design parameters, the performance function of the resonance reliability of the cam mechanism is established based on stability criterion of vibration. The perturbation method is employed to calculate the resonance reliability of cam mechanism. Combined with the sensitivity technology, the effects of random variables on occurring resonance failure of cam mechanism system were discussed. The study results can provide theoretical reference for anti-resonance design of cam mechanism system.

The sensitivity index plays a critical role in the design of product and is used to quantify the impact degree of the uncertainty of the input variable to the uncertainty of the interest output. This paper presents a new local reliability sensitivity method and a global reliability sensitivity analysis method of time-dependent reliability problems. Firstly, according to the Poisson's assumption-based first-passage method, the local reliability sensitivity index is directly obtained by calculating the partial derivative of the failure probability to the distribution parameters of input random variable. Then, the moment-independent global reliability sensitivity index of the time-dependent problems is derived based on the concept of moment-independent. Finally, the efficiency and accuracy of the proposed method are verified with the reference results of Monte Carlo simulation.

The fluid–structure interaction (FSI) effect has a significant impact on the static and dynamic performance of aerostatic spindles, which should be fully considered when developing a new product. To enhance the overall performance of aerostatic spindles, a two-round optimization design method for aerostatic spindles considering the FSI effect is proposed in this article. An aerostatic spindle is optimized to elaborate the design procedure of the proposed method. In the first-round design, the geometrical parameters of the aerostatic bearing were optimized to improve its stiffness. Then, the key structural dimension of the aerostatic spindle is optimized in the second-round design to improve the natural frequency of the spindle. Finally, optimal design parameters are acquired and experimentally verified. This research guides the optimal design of aerostatic spindles considering the FSI effect.
