In this study, the engine suspension system was optimized for making the vibration between engine and car body minimized, and also the optimization was simulated using software Adams. The purpose of this study was to research the vibration isolation of the engine mounting system and implement multi-objective optimization for the intrinsic frequency. In this paper, the optimization was implemented in two ways: (1) the intrinsic frequency was optimized by reasonably allocating it: (2) the intrinsic frequency was optimized using energy decoupling. The optimized intrinsic frequencies were simulated using software Adams and then the simulation results were compared. The simulation results showed that the optimized energy distribution was almost up to 90% and the decoupling degree was greatly improved by comparing the initial data, proving the optimized data played a greater effect on engine vibration isolation and further verifying the feasibility of optimization design method.

The optimization design problem of vibration isolation and shock resistance system is studied in consideration of acoustical concealment performance and life-force of ships. The weakness of design method based on continuity is pointed out and combination optimal design method is brought forward. Then the limiting performance of shock isolation system is analyzed and two realization methods are discussed. One method is to adopt linear stiffness component with large damping. The other method is to use multiple linear stiffness components without damping. Simulation results showed that the optimal loss factor is still 0.4 when the stiffness of shock bumper is much larger than that of vibration isolator, just the same with that suffering from only shock loads. Simulation results also showed that limiting performance can be achieved by configuration optimal design using multiple linear components. The two discussed methods can be used to direct engineering application.

The optimization of blank design is the key to the implementation of a green innovation strategy. The process of blank design determines more than 80% of resource consumption and environmental emissions during the blank processing. Unfortunately, the traditional blank design method based on function and quality is not suitable for today’s sustainable development concept. In order to solve this problem, a research method of blank design optimization based on a low-carbon and low-cost process route optimization is proposed. Aiming at the processing characteristics of complex box type blank parts, the concept of the workstep element is proposed to represent the characteristics of machining parts, a low-carbon and low-cost multi-objective optimization model is established, and relevant constraints are set up. In addition, an intelligent generation algorithm of a working step chain is proposed, and combined with a particle swarm optimization algorithm to solve the optimization model. Finally, the feasibility and practicability of the method are verified by taking the processing of the blank of an emulsion box as an example. The data comparison shows that the comprehensive performance of the low-carbon and low-cost multi-objective optimization is the best, which meets the requirements of low-carbon processing, low-cost, and sustainable production.

This paper presents simulation results on the geometrical optimization design of bare tube heat exchangers. By linking a mathematical model with an optimization alogorithm, it is possible to predict which combination of five geometrical variables would produce a given coil capacity of a heat exchanger, the minimum core volume size operating at the minimum pressure drop. A constrained multivariable direct search technique is used in which the five geometrical variables and a mixture of five explicit and implicit constraints are accommodated. Using this design method, three typical sizes of bare tube optimization cases have been studied. The simulation results predict significant performance improvements for heat exchanger design. The range of tube outer diameter in this optimization study is from 4.9 to 9.0 mm.

Recently, there has been a renewed interest in the research of tandem compressor cascades due to the high stage pressure ratio and low control cost. Firstly, the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method is employed to examine the particular aerodynamic performance of the tandem cascade. Then we propose an automatic multi-objective optimization design method of the tandem cascade for the superior aerodynamic performance under the multiple operation conditions. Particular efforts have been devoted to the gap geometry optimization in terms of the front and aft airfoil relative position, camber turning ratio as well as chord ratio. The multi-objective optimization algorithm comprises a refined multi-objective genetic algorithm (MOGA) and a developed artificial neural network (ANN) model which is used to fast approximate the aerodynamic performance of the tandem cascade. The results show that the tandem cascade outperforms the single cascade in terms of producing higher pressure ratio and lower losses while the operation range is rather narrow. The optimized all-better-than (ABT) tandem cascade has its design point performance significantly improved while the operation range slightly widened. We also find that a slight axial proximity and separation of the tandem airfoils are beneficial to widening the positive and negative operation range, respectively. This research is useful to the tandem compressor cascade design in minimizing the stage number of the engine compressors.

To improve comfort, a nonlinear suspension system is proposed on the basis of the nonlinear vibration isolation theory and the installation space of the cab suspension system for trucks. This system is suitable for all-floating cabs. For easy matching and design, the static and stability characteristics of the suspension system were analyzed, respectively, and the boundary condition for the stability of the system was given. Moreover, the cab simulation model was established, and the dynamic simulation was conducted. The stability analysis shows that the smaller the vibration excitation of the cab system, the higher its stability is. The dynamic simulation results show that the acceleration of the cab with the nonlinear suspension system is effectively suppressed; the dynamic deflection of the suspension is kept within a certain range, and the design space of the suspension stroke can be effectively utilized. Compared with the traditional linear suspension system, the nonlinear suspension system has better vibration isolation characteristics and can effectively improve ride comfort.

Modern aerodynamic optimization design methods for the industrial axial compressor cascade mainly aim at improving both design point and off-design point performance. In this study, a multi-point and multi-objective optimization design method is established for the cascade, particularly aiming at widening the operating range while maintaining good performance at the acceptable expense of computational load. The design objectives are to maximize the static pressure ratio and minimize the total pressure loss coefficient at the design point, and to maximize the operating range for the positive and negative incidences. To alleviate the computational load, a design of experiment (DOE)-based GA–BP-ANN model is constructed to rapidly approximate the cascade aerodynamic performance in the optimization process. The artificial neural network (ANN) is trained by the genetic algorithm (GA) technique and back propagation (BP) algorithm, where the training cascades are sampled by the DOE method and analysed by the computational fluid dynamics method. The multi-objective genetic algorithm is used to search for a series of Pareto-optimum solutions, from which an optimal cascade is found out whose objectives are all better than (ABT) those of the original design. The ABT cascade is characterized by the lower camber and higher turning angle, leading to better aerodynamic performance in a widened operating range. Compared with the original design, the ABT cascade decreases the total pressure loss coefficient by 1.54 per cent, 23.4 per cent, and 7.87 per cent at the incidences of 5°, −9°, and 13°, respectively. The established optimization design method can be extended to the three-dimensional aerodynamic design of axial compressor blade.
