Determination of destruction cause of experimental mill roll of stand roughing group of mill 150.

High quality of purchased resources plays a critical role under the conditions of severe international competition. Raw materials, materials and components are purchase for product production and their quality is an essential part in the production of steel at OJSC “BSW – Management Company of the Holding “BMC” holding». The problem of excessively high level of dynamic loads is especially acute for roughing stands. The main reasons for dynamic overloads are intense transient processes occurring in the rolling cycle, the presence of elastic constraints and gaps in the system, imperfection of electric drive system and errors made during development. Therefore, there is a need for selection of material and manufacturing technology for mill rolls capable to withstand such loads for a sufficiently long period. Investigations of destruction causes of experimental mill roll of stand roughing group of mill 150 of section rolling shop at OJSC “BSW – Management Company of the Holding “BMC” holding were carried out. Main classification features are established based on the analysis of the fracture. The results of metallographic studies of microstructure and chemical composition of central and subsurface zone roll fragments are presented. The reason of destruction of experimental mill roll was discovered – nonconformance of roll material grade with the requirements of technological instructions and normative documentation for rough group of stands No. 1–3

Structural form and experimental research of truss arch bridge with multi-point elastic constraints

With the increase of the arch bridge span, the mechanical properties of arch bridges will decrease rapidly. In order to solve this problem, triangular net is set between the arch rib and girder to form a kind of truss arch bridge in which arch rib acts as top chord, girder acts as lower chord, triangular net acts as web member, and hangers provide elastic restrains at several points. The triangle stability of the truss can improve linear stiffness of arch rib and girder, which will thus improve the mechanical properties of arch bridges. A test bridge with a span of 50 m was built to prove the superiority of the truss arch bridge with multi-point elastic constraints (MTAB). Structural stresses and displacements were obtained through dead load experiments, and the mechanical properties of the structure were calculated through the finite element (FE) software. It is turned out that, compared with the conventional through arch bridge (CTAB), the mechanical performance of the MTAB is greatly improved. The test values of structural stresses and displacements match calculation values well. Moreover, with the same steel consumption, the more layers of the triangular net, the better the mechanical properties of the structure.

MATHEMATICAL MODELING OF ELECTROMAGNETIC IMPACT UNIT OF DOWNHOLE VIBRATION SOURCE

Creation of downhole sources of elastic vibrations for the implementation of vibrowave enhanced oil recovery methods is an urgent task of mining engineering. The paper substantiates the expediency of using an electromagnetic linear drive of a downhole vibration source to generate axial shock pulses. A mathematical model is proposed that describes the dynamics of movement of the striker of electromagnetic impact unit under the action of traction forces of coils, friction forces and aerodynamic resistance, taking into account the elastic constraints at the end of the lower and upper working strokes of the striker. Theoretical dependences of striker displacement and speed on time, obtained using the developed model, are presented, and their high convergence with the experimental data is shown. The mathematical model of electromagnetic impact unit can be used to optimize its parameters, as well as to design new standard sizes of vibration sources that meet the requirements of the oil and gas industry.

Dynamic Behaviors of a Two-Degree-of-Freedom Impact Oscillator with Two-Sided Constraints

The dynamic model of a vibroimpact system subjected to harmonic excitation with symmetric elastic constraints is investigated with analytical and numerical methods. The codimension-one bifurcation diagrams with respect to frequency of the excitation are obtained by means of the continuation technique, and the different types of bifurcations are detected, such as grazing bifurcation, saddle-node bifurcation, and period-doubling bifurcation, which predicts the complexity of the system considered. Based on the grazing phenomenon obtained, the zero-time-discontinuity mapping is extended from the single constraint system presented in the literature to the two-sided elastic constraint system discussed in this paper. The Poincare mapping of double grazing periodic motion is derived, and this compound mapping is applied to obtain the existence conditions of codimension-two grazing bifurcation point of the system. According to the deduced theoretical result, the grazing curve and the codimension-two grazing bifurcation points are validated by numerical simulation. Finally, various types of periodic-impact motions near the codimension-two grazing bifurcation point are illustrated through the unfolding diagram and phase diagrams.

A unified solution for in-plane vibration analysis of composite laminated sector and annular plate with elastic constraints

A semi-analytical method for in-plane vibration analysis of a composite laminated annular and sector plate with elastic constraints is presented. The theoretical model is on the basis of a variational method and a multi-segment technique. Displacement variables are expanded by the Jacobian orthogonal polynomial. Boundary conditions and continuity conditions between segments are characterized by penalty parameters. On this basis, a series of numerical examples are given. The results show that the method has good convergence speed and accuracy. Finally, the parametric study of geometric and material parameters is carried out to provide important support for solving the in-plane characteristics of this kind of composite structure.
