Boundary condition modelling and identification for cantilever-like structures using natural frequencies

The actual boundary conditions of cantilever-like structures might be non-ideally clamped in engineering practice, and they can also vary with time due to damage or aging. Precise modelling of boundary conditions, in which both the boundary stiffness and the boundary mass should be modelled correctly, might be one of the most significant aspects in dynamic analysis and testing for such structures. However, only the boundary stiffness was considered in the most existing methods. In this paper, a boundary condition modelling and identification method for cantilever-like structures is proposed to precisely model both the boundary stiffness and the boundary mass using sensitivity analysis of natural frequencies. The boundary conditions of a cantilever-like structure can be parameterized by constant mass, constant rotational inertia,constant translational stiffness, and constant rotational stiffness. The relationship between natural frequencies and boundary parameters is deduced according to the vibration equation for the lateral vibration of a non-uniform beam. Then, an iterative identification formulation is established using the sensitivity analysis of natural frequencies with respect to the boundary parameters. The regularization technique is also used to solve the potential ill-posed problem in the identification procedure.Numerical simulations and experiments are performed to validate the feasibility and accuracy of the proposed method. Results show that the proposed method can be utilized to precisely model the boundary parameters of a cantilever-like structure.     

The Magnetospheric Multiscale Magnetometers

The success of the Magnetospheric Multiscale mission depends on the accurate measurement of the magnetic field on all four spacecraft. To ensure this success, two independently designed and built fluxgate magnetometers were developed, avoiding single-point failures. The magnetometers were dubbed the digital fluxgate (DFG), which uses an ASIC implementation and was supplied by the Space Research Institute of the Austrian Academy of Sciences and the analogue magnetometer (AFG) with a more traditional circuit board design supplied by the University of California, Los Angeles. A stringent magnetic cleanliness program was executed under the supervision of the Johns Hopkins University’s Applied Physics Laboratory. To achieve mission objectives, the calibration determined on the ground will be refined in space to ensure all eight magnetometers are precisely inter-calibrated. Near real-time data plays a key role in the transmission of high-resolution observations stored on board so rapid processing of the low-resolution data is required. This article describes these instruments, the magnetic cleanliness program, and the instrument pre-launch calibrations, the planned in-flight calibration program, and the information flow that provides the data on the rapid time scale needed for mission success.     

基于仿真分析的压铆力预测模型

铆接是飞机结构机械连接的主要方式,压铆力作为影响铆接质量的重要因素,传统的计算方法通常是建立在体积不变的假设之上,且不考虑钉杆材料被压入钉孔部分的体积,导致模型误差较大。为此,依据仿真分析结果和铆钉材料的流动趋势,引入体积缩减系数来描述钉杆被压入钉孔部分的体积,建立压铆力预测模型,并与已有的试验数据进行对比,结果表明计算值与试验值的一致性较好,该模型可以用来预测铆接过程中压铆力的大小。

轮胎参数对双轮式起落架刹车耦合振动影响研究

目前对飞机起落架低频刹车耦合振动问题的研究主要停留在考虑轮胎参数影响的起落架纵向单自由度振动特性分析，对于多自由度低频刹车耦合振动的特性研究不足。基于Simcenter 3D 动力学分析软件建立双轮支柱式起落架刚柔耦合整机滑跑刹车分析模型，研究轮胎竖向刚度和侧偏刚度对双轮支柱式起落架低频刹车纵向、横向和扭转的多自由度耦合振动的影响。结果表明：轮胎的竖向刚度对起落架横向和扭转方向上的振动影响较大，轮胎竖向刚度变化33%，横向和扭转方向上的振动变化5% 左右；轮胎的侧偏刚度对起落架低频刹车横向上的振动影响较大，轮胎侧偏刚度变化33%，横向上的振动变化15% 左右。     

固体药柱燃烧断裂边界一维流场特性

以发动机燃烧室增压为条件,详细模拟了固体药柱燃烧断裂边界一维流场的特性。高温燃气在燃烧室增压驱动下注入药柱裂纹,在裂纹内形成压力波和火焰锋的传播过程。压力波前和封闭的裂纹顶端会产生拍击作用,使得裂纹顶端的压力迅速增加,进而在燃烧室增压率增大的方向上,裂纹顶端相继出现火焰减速传播、压力突升、超前点火和火焰加速传播等现象。这就找到了国内外学者在一维假设下发现的各现象之间的内在联系,并描述了四种不同的火焰传播曲线。     

Performance analysis of wavefront curvature methods for rangeestimation of a moving source

In numerous practical situations a large array of sensors is required, especially for improving the system ability to detect and track moving sources. However, the array performance is strongly affected by the lack of stationarity of the impinging signals. The use of a large array of sensors allow us to perform the source localization by using the wavefront curvature. The analysis of the range estimates based on the wavefront curvature have been thoroughly performed by various authors but, to our knowledge, is restricted to the case of fixed sources. The study of the effects of source motion for range estimation (Section III) and source detection (Section V) constitutes an important part of this work. This study reveals that the array performance can be far from the expected values, especially for large array. Therefore, the robustness of a direct processing of the whole sensor array is very questionable. The computational burden constitutes another serious drawback of this (direct) approach. The use of partitioned processings (Sections IV and VI) seems thus quite promising even if (and perhaps because) it is not optimal so as to fulfil the computation cost and robustness requirements. The performance of such processings for estimating the range of moving sources is presented
