Against the background of increasing demands for quality in technical products, shorter cycles of development as well as parallel development processes,it becomes more and more important to receive statements about critical influences  and risks in the component functions at an early stage in order to make a potential fault clearance as cost neutral as possible. One method besides the already established simulation processes in development exists in tolerance analysis. Thereby the confirmation of the function measurement concept is secured. This also is a benchmark for production, function and assembly features of components.

Due to the heavy load and big inertia moment of optoelectronic theodolite, its stiffness will directly affect its tracking capability. Therefore, its azimuth resonance frequency shows more importance. Aiming at this situation, by adopting the integrated modeling and simulating function of UG NX4.0, the theodolite's vertical shaft was modeled and simulated, through which its first three-order azimuth resonance frequency and mode shape were obtained. The simulating result satisfies the requirements of practical work and accords with the result of experiment. Moreover, the components with good rigidity were found. Based on the consideration of reducing weight, optimization design was conducted on the components with good rigidity. Under the circumstance of not influencing the overall structure stiffness, the structure was optimized and the weight was lowered.

The paper overviews the methods of predicting forming limit in sheet metal forming. By utilizing ductile fracture criteria(DFC), the method to well predict the forming limit was proposed and furthermore, it considered the change of forming path as well. The Cockroft and Latham criteria were applied in the forming of high strength steel(HSS) DP590. The unidirectional stretching experiment was done on DP590 steel to obtain the corresponding physical parameters. Moreover, the rectangular cup experiment was conducted to get the forming limit parameters and corresponding finite element simulation was done. Cockroft and Latham criteria parameter of this material was obtained through finite element simulation. Finally, by employing these criteria parameters, the fracture was predicted in the cup forming. The results accord well with the experiment. It is demonstrated that DFC can be applied in HSS forming.

According to the cutting theory of shearer, the mathematic models of relationship between the helical vane parameters (structural parameters, kinematical parameters) and the objective parameters (coal capacity of the drum, coal conveying speed in axial direction, stoker force in axial direction, minimum speed of the drum, percentage of lump coal) were established. Based on the above, when the vane was with 2\|start, the drum diameters were 1 800, 1 600, 1 250 mm, the relationship between vane parameters (helical angle, drum rotary speed) and the coal conveying speed and the relationship between parameters namely helical angle, drum rotating speed and speed of stroking up coal in axial direction was studied. Furthermore, the influence of the vane parameters (helical angle, haulage speed, drum rotary speed) on the stoker force in axial direction and the percentage of lump coal, and the relationship of the vane parameters (helical angle, haulage speed) and the minimum speed of the drum were analyzed.The results indicate that the helical angle has a great influence on the objective parameters (coal capacity of the drum, coal conveying speed in axial direction, stoker force in axial direction, minimum speed of the drum), and the best value is obtained around 0.3 rad, which provides theoretic basis for design of the shearer drum.

To comprehensively analyze and evaluate the technical risk and quality risk of construction design, by adopting expert investigating method, all kinds of risk factors encountered in construction design concerning safety and public interest were investigated. According to the result of investigation, subject evaluation approach was utilized to evaluate the degree of importance and risk of each risk factor on construction quality safety and using function. By using AHP method, the relative importance weight of every risk factor on construction comprehensive influence was calculated and ordered. Based on the evaluation result of AHP, fuzzy comprehensive evaluation on each risk factor was conducted by fuzzy evaluation method. By combining the three evaluation results, ultimately, the conclusion that the overall construction risk is under medium level is drawn and the degree of importance of each factor is proposed, which provides inspiration and guidance for construction designers.

Abstract( 610 )   HTML( 1 )     PDF(317KB)( 1034 )
The automatic computation of non-stress length of the main cable strand of suspension bridge was implemented by programs developed by the second development language APLD of FEA commercials ANSYS. The local coordinates was established according to the central strand's spatial coordinates, and then the array of other strands relative to the central strand in the local coordinates was set up. Finally, the real spatial model between the key points of each strand in the main cable was built, which took into account the correction between line and circle at saddles, and then the real length of strand was got by picking-up all element's length. An example indicates that the crucial impacting factors include dead load, coordinates error of control points and temperature, and other factors' impact is small. The maximum length difference of steel wires in one strand is 6.75 cm. The result shows that this method is accurate and simple, and can be applied to complex structure such as the spatial cable net self-anchored suspension bridge to decrease job.
