Simultaneous optimization of structure together with attached tuned mass dampers considering dynamic performance

Tuned Mass Dampers(TMDs) are often attached to a main structure to reduce vibration, and the TMDs’ positions are important to affect the structural dynamic performance. However, the TMDs’ positions and the material layout of the structure act on each other. This paper suggests a design optimization method by combining the topology optimization of the main structure and the layout of the attached TMDs under harmonic excitations. The main structure with the attached TMDs are modeled by the continu...     

Spiking-free HGO-based DSC for flexible joint manipulator

The tracking control problem for Flexible Joint Manipulator Control System(FJMCS)with unmeasurable states is addressed in this paper. Firstly, a High-Gain Observer(HGO) is constructed to estimate the unmeasurable states and the uncertainties. Then, a Dynamic Surface Control(DSC) scheme is developed by using the estimation of HGO. The newly proposed controller has two advantages over the existing methods:(A) a novel Spike Suppression Function(SSF) is developed to avoid the estimation spike proble...

Space Materials Science in China: I. Experiment Studies under Microgravity

The virtual absence of gravity-dependent phenomena in microgravity allows an in-depth understanding of fundamental events that are normally obscured and therefore are difficult to study quantitatively on Earth. Of particular interest is that the low-gravity environment aboard space provides a unique platform to synthesize alloys of semiconductors with homogeneous composition distributions, on both the macroscopic and microscopic scales, due to the much reduced buoyancy-driven convection. On the other hand, the easy realization of detached solidification in microgravity suppresses the formation of defects such as dislocations and twins, and thereby the crystallographic perfection is greatly increased. Moreover, the microgravity condition offers the possibilities to elucidate the liquid/solid interfacial structures, as well as clarify the microstructure evolution path of the metal alloys (or composites) during the solidification process. Motivated by these facts, growths of compound semiconductors and metal alloys were carried out under microgravity by using the drop tube, or on the scientific platforms of Tiangong-2 and SJ-10. The following illustrates the main results.      

基于数字波形合成的PCM/FM调制技术

随着无线通信向数字化、软件化发展,采用软件无线电技术实现各种通信功能成为目前研究的热点。在广泛应用的PCM/FM遥测体制中,PCM/FM调制模块也可采用基于软件无线电的数字方法来实现。相比于模拟技术,数字技术可以改善模拟锁相调频电路的低频响应特性,有利于增强系统的稳定性和灵活性,并能有效地提高传输效率和保证传输性能。在PCM/FM调制的数字化实现方案中,结合了直接波形合成(DWS)及数字上变频(DUC)技术,以DSP为核心,通过软件算法将PCM信号分解为基带I、Q(同相、正交)信号,I、Q信号分别与各自的载波相乘后相加形成正交调制数据流,然后经过D/A转换得到正交调制模拟信号。其中的软件算法部分采用MATLAB语言进行全精度仿真及验证。

通过损失系数实验值确定堵塞系数的方法

现有设计体系中损失系数主要是由实验和经验来确定。通流气动设计则需计入叶片槽道内的边界层及局部分离区的堵塞效应,反映边界层和局部分离区的堵塞影响的堵塞系数也是依经验给定。本文对多台风扇设计进行分析后,发现现有设计体系中损失系数和堵塞系数之间彼此孤立且在数值上不协调,而事实上,两者是紧密相关的,体现在物理上就是损失和开式分离流之间的关系。本文在分析现有设计体系模型的基础上,提出了一个工程模型,试图把两者关联起来,通过损失系数的实验值确定堵塞系数的值。
