Mechanical behaviour of adhesively single lap joint under buckling conditions

Adhesive Single Lap Joints have been subjected to tensile and bending investigations by many researchers. However, the joint is also likely to experience buckling loading in some aerospace applications. The aim of this work is to investigate the joint behaviour under quasi-static buckling conditions. For this purpose, the joints with three different adherend thicknesses and 25 mm overlap length were tested using two different types of adherends and an adhesive film. They were modelled using a non-linear Finite Element Method via the ABAQUS Explicit package programme. Load to failure and stress distributions in the joints were predicted and compared with the experimental results, which were found in a good agreement. The adhesive layer in the joint was assumed to experience shear stresses under the buckling mode, similar to that in tensile loading, yet, the stress concentrations at the ends of the overlap, the main cause of the failure, resulted in different effects on the joint performance; for the buckling mode the critical stresses were in compression but for the tensile case in peeling. Unlike the latter, the former was found to prevent failure of the layer depending on the adherend thickness, causing different failure mechanisms. There were two different failure modes of the joints; a complete failure in the adhesive layer and large plastic deformation of adherends which could be a good source for crashworthiness situations. Mechanical properties of the adherends were found to play important roles on the joint performance.     

Aeroelastic prediction and analysis for a transonic fan rotor with the “hot” blade shape

This paper focuses on aeroelastic prediction and analysis for a transonic fan rotor with only its “hot” (running) blade shape available, which is often the case in practical engineering such as in the design stage. Based on an in-house and well-validated CFD solver and a hybrid structural finite element modeling/modal approach, three main aspects are considered with special emphasis on dealing with the “hot” blade shape. First, static aeroelastic analysis is presented for shape transformation between “cold” (manufacturing) and “hot” blades, and influence of the dynamic variation of “hot” shape on evaluated aerodynamic performance is investigated. Second, implementation of the energy method for flutter prediction is given and both a regularly used fixed “hot” shape and a variable “hot” shape are considered. Through comparison, influence of the dynamic variation of “hot” shape on evaluated aeroelastic stability is also investigated. Third, another common way to predict flutter, time-domain method, is used for the same concerned case, from which the predicted flutter characteristics are compared with those from the energy method. A well-publicized axial-flow transonic fan rotor, Rotor 67, is selected as a typical example, and the corresponding numerical results and discussions are presented in detail.

Optimization and analysis of winglet configuration for solar aircraft

Installing winglets can notably improve the aerodynamic performance of solar aircraft. This paper proposes a multi-constraints optimization method of winglets for solar aircraft, aiming to enhance the corresponding uninterrupted cruising capability. An optimization objective function is formed and is separately studied in aerodynamic and structural terms. Qualitative analysis shows that the winglet design parameters are restricted by four special constraints (geometry, aerodynamics, energy and stability) of solar aircraft. The optimization process is constructed on the basis of a multi-island genetic algorithm, and carried out for a 15 m wingspan solar aircraft. Although the designed winglet is not as good as the traditional winglet in terms of drag and structural weight, the designed winglet provides a better 24 h cruising capability. The sensitivity between the objective function and the design parameters is investigated, and the winglet effects vary with respect to the wing aspect ratio (AR = 10, 15, 19.6). The effect of the constraints is analysed quantitatively, and some basic laws are obtained. Moreover, the feasible design region and the possible optimal design parameters of winglets for different wing configurations are explored. The calculation results show that when the aspect ratio exceeds a certain value, the winglets will not benefit the aircraft.

Crashworthiness analysis of aircraft fuselage with sine-wave beam structure

An integrated design concept for crashworthy fuselage using sine-wave beam and strut is proposed and investigated. The finite element model of aircraft fuselage is built first. The structures above cabin floor, occupant and seat are simplified as two rigid blocks. The fuselage frame is redesigned, and the sine-wave beam is arranged under the frame. The impact dynamic performance of the aircraft with bottom sine-wave beam structure is studied and compared with that of conventional type. To obtain better crashworthiness performance, different rigidity of strut is combined with the sine-wave beam bottom structure. Numerical simulation result shows that the proposed sine-wave beam bottom structure could not only dissipate more proportion of impact kinetic energy but also reduce the initial peak acceleration. The structure and rigidity of strut have great influence on the crashworthiness performance. To give a better fuselage structure, both of the strut and bottom structure should be properly integrated and designed.     

旋流数对小限制率旋流喷雾及火焰特性的影响

分布式贫油直喷（Distributed Lean Direct Injection,DLDI）燃烧室是国外多点贫油直喷（MLDI）燃烧室的实用发展形式。本文对DLDI燃烧室的主燃级单元LDI开展研究,主要关注外旋流器旋流数（Sn）从0.65降低到0.33对流场、喷雾和火焰结构的影响。利用FLUENT软件、采用雷诺平均方程（RANS）对时均流场进行求解;利用离散相模型（Discrete Phase Model）对喷雾散布进行模拟;利用Mie散射和激光粒度测量仪对喷雾散布和SMD（Sauter Mean Diameter）进行测量,并对仿真结果进行验证;利用高速摄像机拍摄火焰结构。研究结果显示Sn变化直接改变流场结构：随着Sn的减小,外旋流射流对内旋流射流的压制逐渐变强,内旋流射流的张角和中心回流区尺寸都逐渐缩小;尤其在Sn为0.33时,角涡回流区演化成壁面回流区。流场变化影响液雾散布：Sn在0.38~0.65区间时,喷雾核心主要由内旋流射流输运,喷雾张角由内旋流射特性决定;当Sn为0.33时,喷雾核心会在自身惯性下射入外旋流射流,在外旋流射流以及壁面回流区的作用下均匀散布。喷雾散布结果表明喷雾核心射入外旋流射流时更有利于液雾的散布。火焰结构的研究结果显示在小限制率条件下,Sn为0.33时,中心回流区回流量不足、无法稳定火焰,此时形成的壁面回流区创造了新的稳火点来帮助稳定火焰。     

采用变速控制力矩陀螺的一种姿态/能量一体化控制研究

本文研究采用变速控制力矩陀螺（VSCMG）的航天器姿态／能量一体化控制技术。首先建立了以变速控制力矩陀螺为执行机构的航天器姿态动力学模型，并给出了全局稳定的姿态反馈控制律。以控制力矩陀螺群的构型奇异量度为依据，分别考虑了VSCMG的控制力矩陀螺（CMG）工作模式和反作用飞轮（RW）工作模式。在陀螺群接近奇异时启用转子的反作用飞轮工作模式来补偿控制力矩陀螺采用鲁棒伪逆操纵律时所引起的力矩误差；在陀螺群远离奇异状态时，用控制力矩陀螺来补偿转子储能带来的干扰力矩。在姿态控制的同时利用转子的变速特性，完成按照给定的功率存储／释放能量，并在陀螺群远离奇异状态时对储能过程中转子的转速进行调节，以保持良好地动量包络外形。最后以某航天器的姿态控制为例，给出了数值仿真结果。
