A compositional method to model dependent failure behavior based on PoF models

In this paper, a new method is developed to model dependent failure behavior among failure mechanisms. Unlike the existing methods, the developed method models the root cause of the dependency explicitly, so that a deterministic model, rather than a probabilistic one, can be established. Three steps comprise the developed method. First, physics-of-failure(PoF) models are utilized to model each failure mechanism. Then, interactions among failure mechanisms are modeled as a combination of three basic relations, competition, superposition and coupling. This is the reason why the method is referred to as ‘‘compositional method". Finally, the PoF models and the interaction model are combined to develop a deterministic model of the dependent failure behavior. As a demonstration, the method is applied on an actual spool and the developed failure behavior model is validated by a wear test. The result demonstrates that the compositional method is an effective way to model dependent failure behavior.     

Cylindrical and spherical dust-electron-acoustic shock waves due to dust charge fluctuation

Cylindrical and spherical dust-electron-acoustic (DEA) shock waves propagating in a dusty plasma (containing cold inertial electrons, hot Maxwellian electrons, stationary and streaming ions, and charge fluctuating stationary dust) are theoretically investigated by reductive perturbation method. It is shown that the effect of the dust charge fluctuation introduces some new features in the nonlinear propagation of the DEA waves, particularly the dust charge fluctuation provides a source of dissipation, and is responsible for the formation of the DEA shock structures. It is also found that the basic features of the DEA nonlinear structures are significantly modified by the non-planar (viz. cylindrical and spherical) geometry, and that the height of the cylindrical DEA shock structures are larger than that of the planar DEA shock structures, but smaller than that of the spherical ones. The implications of these results in laboratory dusty plasmas are briefly discussed.     

Diffusive shock acceleration at interplanetary perpendicular shock waves: Influence of the large scale structure of turbulence on the maximum particle energy

We calculate the maximum energy that a particle can obtain at perpendicular interplanetary shock waves by the mechanism of diffusive shock acceleration. The influence of the energy range spectral index of the two-dimensional modes of the interplanetary turbulence is explored. We show that changes in this parameter lead to energies that differ in at least one order of magnitude. Therefore, the large scale structure of the turbulence is a key input if the maximum particle energy is calculated.     

Anomalous particle transport in the heliosphere

The transport of energetic particles in the presence of magnetic turbulence can exhibit a variety of regimes different from the standard quasilinear diffusion. Here we discuss a number of solar and space problems where nonquasilinear diffusion is found, and then we illustrate anomalous transport regimes, for which the mean square deviation grows nonlinearly with time. In particular, we concentrate on superdiffusive regimes, and show what is the theoretical framework which is to be used to describe superdiffusion. We discuss the results of numerical simulations which show that superdiffusive and subdiffusive regimes are possible, and describe data analyses which allow to single out the superdiffusive transport from the observation of energetic particle profiles upstream of interplanetary shocks. The implications of superdiffusion on the efficiency of wave particle interactions are also discussed.     

Three dimensional investigation of the shock train structure in a convergent–divergent nozzle

Three-dimensional computational fluid dynamics analyses have been employed to study the compressible and turbulent flow of the shock train in a convergent–divergent nozzle. The primary goal is to determine the behavior, location, and number of shocks. In this context, full multi-grid initialization, Reynolds stress turbulence model (RSM), and the grid adaption techniques in the Fluent software are utilized under the 3D investigation. The results showed that RSM solution matches with the experimental data suitably. The effects of applying heat generation sources and changing inlet flow total temperature have been investigated. Our simulations showed that changes in the heat generation rate and total temperature of the intake flow influence on the starting point of shock, shock strength, minimum pressure, as well as the maximum flow Mach number.     

Mach reflection in steady supersonic flow considering wedge boundary-layer correction

Mach reflection in steady supersonic flow is an important phenomenon having received extensive studies, among which simplified theoretical models to predict the size of Mach stem and other flow structure are of particular interest. Past efforts for such models were based on inviscid assumption while in real cases the flow is viscous. Here in this paper we consider the influence of wedge boundary layer on the Mach stem height. This is done by including a simplified boundary layer model into a recently published inviscid model. In this viscous model, the wedge angle and the trailing edge height, which control the Mach stem height, are replaced by their equivalent ones accounting for the displacement effect of the wedge boundary layer, with the boundary layer assumed to be laminar or fully turbulent. This viscous model is shown to compare well with numerical results by computational fluid dynamics and gives a Mach stem height as function of the Reynolds number and Mach number. It is shown that due to the viscous effect, the Mach stem height is increased, through increasing the effective wedge angle.     

A multi-criteria fusion feature selection algorithm for fault diagnosis of helicopter planetary gear train

Planetary gear train is a prominent component of helicopter transmission system and its health is of great significance for the flight safety of the helicopter. During health condition monitoring, the selection of a fault sensitive feature subset is meaningful for fault diagnosis of helicopter planetary gear train. According to actual situation, this paper proposed a multi-criteria fusion feature selection algorithm (MCFFSA) to identify an optimal feature subset from the high-dimensional original feature space. In MCFFSA, a fault feature set of multiple domains, including time domain, frequency domain and wavelet domain, is first extracted from the raw vibration dataset. Four targeted criteria are then fused by multi-objective evolutionary algorithm based on decomposition (MOEA/D) to find Proto-efficient subsets, wherein two criteria for measuring diagnostic performance are assessed by sparse Bayesian extreme learning machine (SBELM). Further, F-measure is adopted to identify the optimal feature subset, which was employed for subsequent fault diagnosis. The effectiveness of MCFFSA is validated through six fault recognition datasets from a real helicopter transmission platform. The experimental results illustrate the superiority of combination of MOEA/D and SBELM in MCFFSA, and comparative analysis demonstrates that the optimal feature subset provided by MCFFSA can achieve a better diagnosis performance than other algorithms.     

Interaction mechanisms of shock waves with the boundary layer and wakes in a highly-loaded NGV using hybrid RANS/LES

Accurate predictions of Shock Waves and Boundary Layer Interaction (SWBLI) and strong Shock Waves and Wake Vortices Interaction (SWWVI) in a highly-loaded turbine propose challenges to the currently widely used Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) model. In this work, the SWBLI and the SWWVI in a highly-loaded Nozzle Guide Vane (NGV) are studied using a hybrid RANS/LES strategy. The Turbulence Kinetic Energy (TKE) budget and the Proper Orthogonal Decomposition (POD) method are used to analyze flow mechanisms. Results show that this hybrid RANS/LES method can obtain detailed flow structures for flow mechanisms analysis. Strong shock waves induce boundary layer separation, while the presence of a separation bubble can in turn lead to a Mach reflection phenomenon. The shock waves cause trailing-edge vortices to break clearly, and the wakes, in turn, can change the shocks intensity and direction. Furthermore, the Entropy Generation Rate (EGR) is used to analyze the irreversible loss. It turns out that the SWWVI can reduce the flow field loss. There are several weak shock waves in the NGV flow field, which can increase the irreversible loss. This work offers flow mechanisms analysis and presents the EGR distribution in SWBLI and SWWVI areas in a transonic turbine blade.     

Simulator of pyroshock environment and effect rules of its adjustable parameters

During the launching of spacecraft, the on-board devices will undergo a series of pyroshock environments. In order to verify the reliability of these devices under these pyroshock environments, all of them are needed to take the shock test before launching. This paper has carried out an in-depth research on the simulation method of the pyroshock based on the true explosive excitation. In this study, a simulator containing multiple adjustment parameters is presented and the safety is considered by the design of the protective cover. And the working process of this setup is simulated with the explicit dynamic codes LS-DYNA. What’s more, the effects of the adjustment parameters on the three factors of shock Response Spectrum (SRS) of the resonant board are explored carefully. The rules achieved in this paper are verified by a typical example. The results indicate that the improved simulator can avoid the danger of explosive and make full use of the advantage of actual explosive excitation. And the test condition can be quickly realized at the simulator according to the effect rules of the three adjustable parameters.
