In order to turning the skirt of middle-convex and varying ellipse piston, this paper proposes a Variable Cross-section Helix Turning Trajectory (VCHTT) algorithm. it divide the turning trajectory of the piston skirt into transversal and helix, then obtain the coordinates of ellipse transversal cutter-contact points on the basis of centric polar radius arc interpolation (CPRAI) algorithm, and uses line surface intersection method to obtain the coordinates of helix cutter-contact points on the middle-convex and varying ellipse piston skirt. At last,merge two coordinates matrices to obtain the final coordinate surface of cutter-contact points of turning tool. With comparison, it finds that the VCHTT algorithm improves the interpolation accuracy by 0.04um than other methods.

In the present work creeping three-dimensional flows of a viscous liquid in a cylindrical tube and a channel of variable cross-section are studied. A qualitative triangulation of the surface of a cylindrical tube, a smoothed and experimental channel of a variable cross section is constructed. The problem is solved numerically using boundary element method in several modifications for a periodic and non-periodic flows. The obtained numerical results are compared with the analytical solution for the Poiseuille flow.

Variable cross-section rods are used in many parts and mechanisms. For example, conical rods are widely used in percussion mechanisms. The strength of such parts directly depends on the natural frequencies of longitudinal vibrations. The paper presents a method that allows numerically finding the natural frequencies of longitudinal vibrations of an elastic rod with a variable cross section. This method is based on representing the cross-sectional area as an exponential function of a polynomial of degree n. Based on this idea, it was possible to formulate the Sturm-Liouville problem with boundary conditions of the third kind. The linearly independent functions of the general solution have the form of a power series in the variables x and λ, as a result of which the order of the characteristic equation depends on the choice of the number of terms in the series. The presented approach differs from the works of other authors both in the formulation and in the solution method. In the work, a rod with a rigidly fixed left end is considered, fixing on the right end can be either free, or elastic or rigid. The first three natural frequencies for various cross-sectional profiles are given. From the analysis of the numerical results it follows that in a rigidly fixed rod with thinning in the middle part, the first natural frequency is noticeably higher than that of a conical rod. It is shown that with an increase in the rigidity of fixation at the right end, the natural frequencies increase for all cross section profiles. The results of the study can be used to solve inverse problems of restoring the cross-sectional profile from a finite set of natural frequencies.

The piezoelectric vibration energy harvester (PVEH) based on the variable cross-section cantilever beam (VCSCB) structure has the advantages of uniform axial strain distribution and high output power density, so it has become a research hotspot of the PVEH. However, its electromechanical model needs to be further studied. In this paper, the bidirectional coupled distributed parameter electromechanical model of the MEMS VCSCB based PVEH is constructed, analytically solved, and verified, which laid an important theoretical foundation for structural design and optimization, performance improvement, and output prediction of the PVEH. Based on the constructed model, the output performances of five kinds of VCSCB based PVEHs with different cross-sectional shapes were compared and analyzed. The results show that the PVEH with the concave quadratic beam shape has the best output due to the uniform surface stress distribution. Additionally, the influence of the main structural parameters of the MEMS trapezoidal cantilever beam (TCB) based PVEH on the output performance of the device is theoretically analyzed. Finally, a prototype of the Aluminum Nitride (AlN) TCB based PVEH is designed and developed. The peak open-circuit voltage and normalized power density of the device can reach 5.64 V and 742 μW/cm3/g2, which is in good agreement with the theoretical model value. The prototype has wide application prospects in the power supply of the wireless sensor network node such as the structural health monitoring system and the Internet of Things.
