A pre-generated matrix-based method for real-time robotic drilling chatter monitoring

Currently, due to the detrimental effects on surface finish and machining system, chatter has been one crucial factor restricting robotic drilling operations, which improve both quality and efficiency of aviation manufacturing. Based on the matrix notch filter and fast wavelet packet decomposition, this paper presents a novel pre-generated matrix-based real-time chatter monitoring method for robotic drilling. Taking vibration characteristics of robotic drilling into account, the matrix notch filter is designed to eliminate the interference of spindle-related components on the measured vibration signal. Then, the fast wavelet packet decomposition is presented to decompose the filtered signal into several equidistant frequency bands, and the energy of each sub-band is obtained. Finally, the energy entropy which characterizes inhomogeneity of energy distribution is utilized as the feature to recognize chatter on-line, and the effectiveness of the presented algorithm is validated by extensive experimental data. The results show that the proposed algorithm can effectively detect chatter before it is fully developed. Moreover, since both filtering and decomposition of signal are implemented by the pre-generated matrices, calculation for an energy entropy of vibration signal with 512 samples takes only about 0.690 ms. Consequently, the proposed method achieves real-time chatter monitoring for robotic drilling, which is essential for subsequent chatter suppression.

Through the striving of humanity into space, new production processes and technologies for the use under microgravity will be essential in the future. Production of objects in space demands for new processes, like additive manufacturing.

基于直接数据域的三维空时自适应杂波抑制

在相控阵机载预警（AEW）雷达杂波抑制中三维空时白适应处理（3D-STAP）的性能最优，然而，三维处理存在两个方面的缺点：一是自适应权的计算量较大，二是估计杂波协方差矩阵时需要大量的训练样本（这在实际非均匀环境中很难满足），因而无法应用。先时后空白适应处理（T-SAP）不但计算量低，而且性能接近最优。现提出了一种基于直接数据域（DDD）的三维先时后空白适应处理（3D-T-SAP）方法，即先对每个二维空域通道用具有超低旁瓣的多普勒滤波器将杂波作局域化预处理，再对各个或相邻几个多普勒通道的输出作基于直接数据域的二维空域白适应处理。此外，由于该方法对阵元误差比较敏感，因此还提出了一种实用的误差校正方法。计算机仿真结果验证了该方法的有效性。

自由曲面叶轮的四坐标数控加工研究

 针对自由曲面叶轮的四坐标加工,提出了一种刀轴矢量的确定方法。给定工作台倾斜角度和刀具后跟角,四坐标加工的刀轴矢量必然位于这两个角度确定的两个圆锥面上。通过对两个圆锥面求交并结合叶轮加工的实际特点,给出了自由曲面叶轮四坐标加工刀轴矢量的计算方法。根据得到的刀轴矢量,计算相应的侧偏角,从而可将五坐标加工的理论和方法直接应用于四坐标加工中。算例表明,该方法合理可行,能够有效提高四坐标加工效率、降低叶轮加工成本,并可推广至一般曲面的四坐标加工以及五轴四联动加工。     

飞机蒙皮多点成形用复合柔性垫层的结构参数优化

 使用柔性垫层是抑制和消除多点模拉形过程中零件表面缺陷的重要措施。针对常规橡胶垫层的不足,提出了一种以橡胶为基体以金属板条为加强结构的复合结构垫层,对其进行了有限元建模和分析,并从垫层变形控制角度对加强结构的设计参数进行了优化。分析结果表明,加强结构中金属板条宜薄不宜厚,但厚度太薄则无法有效抑制零件的表面缺陷,应控制在0.5 mm左右。而较宽的加强材料的宽度也有利于提高垫层的性能,但过宽的板条会影响垫层的贴模能力,应控制在钉杆截面宽度的80％左右。
