Since the artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm had drawbacks of slow convergence and easy to fall into local optimum, a modified optimization algorithm called fast artificial bee colony (FABC) was introduced by setting the selfadaptive scaling factor and replacing the traditional roulette wheel selection model with the fitness sorting method. The suitability of FABC for geometry optimization of structures was tested on four truss examples with discrete variables, compared with other optimal algorithms of GA, ACA, HPSO and GSO. The results show that FABC had advantages over other algorithms in convergence accuracy. 〖JP2〗Furthermore, due to the simple algorithm structure, both algorithms of ABC and FABC can apply to solving other optimal issues.

 In order to optimize the dynamic performance parameters of a kind of parallel robot for wind tunnel support system, the force Jaccobian Matrix and Hessian Matrix were derived according to screw theory. And on the basis of the Jacobian Matrix and Hessian Matrix of this parallel robot, using the first and second order influence coefficient method in all domains of parallel robot working space, the dynamics performance affected by the main structure parameters of this robot were analyzed and optimized. These parameters including such as the motive platform, the position of spherical joints, length of rods, and width between parallel beams had great influence on the dynamics performance by simulation. From the results of simulation, dynamics performance of 6_PUS parallel robot is bad. In order to obtain the best comprehensive performance of the robot, these parameters are required to be comprehensively optimized. After comprehensive consideration of these parameters and the relationship between performances,the main design parameters of the parallel robot are selected and the performance reaches the design requirements at last.

Lunar soil,as a kind of discrete mediums, whose mechanical behavior is not just affected by external factors, but by the interactions and constraints between the soil particles. The mechanical property of continuous mediums is difficult to simulate, and the discrete element method(DEM) as a numerical way to the analysis of discrete medium can be used to simulate the mechanical behavior between devices and the lunar soil. This paper was based on the former analysis of the drilling process on moons surface by Soviet Luna24.Analyzing the process of drilling and building the lunar soil modal with the discrete element software PFC3D was the first step, then we defined the lunar soils constitutive model by giving the particle contact stiffness, coefficient of friction, adhesion coefficient and so on. We contrasted the energy consumption and drilling resistance by stimulating the process of drilling. The results show that the screw pitch and rotate speed have great impact on the energy consumption and drilling resistance. The bigger the screw pitch is and the higher the speed is, the larger the energy consumption and drilling resistance are, and they have a linear relation. The results are conducive to the lunar surface sampling mechanisms design and optimization.

The characteristics of creases during deployment were studied and a simple analysis model was discussed based on springmass model so that flexible structures were described by particles and springs which connected to them. Crease stiffness and the fulldeploy shape norm were studied. The topology of the creasemass model was brought up, and the motion track of perfect deployment was deduced. A case of square membrane in multistretch station was simulated though a FORTRAN program using multi modules. The deployment matches well with the perfect deployment track. The effect of crease stiffness was discussed about force and deformation. Some suggestions are brought up for analyzing and simulating flexible structures which broad up the range for spring-mass model.

The shield machines thrust system can be seen as a vibration system. The computational formula of the vibration response of the nondamping system to initial conditions was derived by using modal superposition method in order to study the response of the EPBs thrust system to initial conditions, and based on which the 5 degrees of freedom nondamping thrust system vibration model was built considering the foundation spring. And then vibration response to initial conditions is derived that initial angles around the X-axis and Y-axis have great influence on the attitude of the thrust system, and the deflection of the thrust system will be up to 2753°when the initial angle is 1°, that makes a great challenge to adjust the angle of the shield machine attitude, and even the shield will deviate from the planned route and be unable to complete the excavation work. The research has a theoretical guidance for the EPB shield machine attitude adjustment.

In order to solve the problem that traditional material vibration sorting platform cannot complete the multidimensional vibration,a kind of 3DOF parallel material vibration platform was designed to satisfy the requirement. It consists of two branches of  (P-R-U)  in the same plane and one branch of  (P-R-C). The moving platform can translate along x,z-axis and rotate on x-axis. D-H matrix was applied to establish the kinematical model of the mechanism. The analytical expression between input variables and output ones was established by the analysis of the positive and inverse solution of theoretical position. The positive solution of position was calculated by Matlab. The mechanism was modeled by Pro/E and was imported with Mech/Pro interface software into ADAMS for kinematics simulation. By analyzing and comparing the theoretical calculated result and the simulated one,the same outcome confirms the correctness of the analysis of mechanism and the positional calculation.

In view of the serious high speed slide of a mining friction hoist, aiming at calculating the linings thermostress accurately, the most commonly used lining G was studied on thermal mechanical analyzer(ZRPY-300), and the effect of load(0-10 N) and heating rate(1-5 ℃/min) on coefficient of linear expansion were analyzed. Experimental results show that the coefficient of linear expansion increases with the temperature increasing under the certain load and heating rate, and when the temperature reaches to 120 ℃, the curve occurres transition and then decreases gradually. When the temperature reaches to 195 ℃, the curve occurres the second transition and then increases again. The coefficient of linear expansion is obviously with the load increasing under a certain heating rate, and the coefficient of linear expansion is complexity with the heating rate increasing under a certain load. Finally the fitting equation is obtained by the multiple regression analysis. Based on this study, the experiment results can supply the basic data for the design of highperformance lining.

To analyze the influence of floating ring bearing's structure parameters on its dynamic characteristics,the relationships between the eccentricity and structure parameters were studied based on the theory of tribology and fluid lubrication, and using the floating ring speed ratio as the starting point. Relied on the above,the relationships between the floating ring bearings dynamic coefficients and its structural parameters were analyzed based on finite element method. The results of research show that:increasing clearance ratio or floating ring inner and outer radius ratio will cause the total primary damp and absolute value of the total crossstiffness get lower,the absolute value of total primary stiffness and total crossdamping will decrease when floating ring inner and outer radius ratio increases,however,it will increase when clearance ratio rises. The results of research provide a reference for the design of floating ring bearing.

In order to improve the calculation accuracy of the crushing force of double cavity jaw crusher, we applied the method of instantaneous center of velocity to analysis the rule of the moving jaw and the change of the crushing cavity of double cavity jaw crusher with the eccentric shaft rotated 360°. Then the conversion coefficient of the effective crushing cavity was put forward, and the change rule of the crushing force was studied. The results indicate that the crushing force periodicity changes with the variation of the effective crushing cavity. It also shows that the crushing force of the left cavity reaches to maximum when the eccentric shafts to 170°, and the crushing force of the right cavity reaches to maximum when the eccentric shafts to 350°. This research revises the formula of the max crushing force, and perfects the basic theory of the double cavity jaw crusher.

In view of a great deal of redundant vertexes and little topological information in a STL file, we studied a topology reconstruction algorithm and reconstructed the topological information of vertexes, edges and triangular facets. Containers and iterators of C++ standard template library were utilized to carry out the algorithm. Redundant vertexes were removed from the STL file based on a redblack tree structure, and a halfedge topological structure was constructed. Neighborhood searched of appointed vertexes and triangular facets could be achieved rapidly. And a boundary of the model could be ascertained likewise.  Experimental results show that the topological information of STL files can be reconstructed by the proposed algorithm efficiently and stably, and the proposed algorithm has an advantage of efficiency over the improved naive algorithm.

For the finite horizon multivariate autocorrelation manufacturing process, the optimal adjustment scheme is developed to minimize the total process quality loss with quadratic adjustment cost and process dynamic noises with AutoRegressive model. Based on the statespace process control model, the optimal adjustment scheme was derived by Kalman filter on line estimation and linear quadratic Gaussian(LQG) theory. A simulation case was presented to illustrate the implementation method of the optimal adjustment policy.  The optimal adjustment scheme was compared with quality adjustment policy with white noise by simulations. The results show that the proposed adjustment solution is more effective than other to reduce the total quality loss of the process.

In order to solve the problems in aircraft rudder loading system such as strong interference, coupling and so on, we analyzed the characteristics of disturbance torque in passive loading system.For high order differential controller with feedforward compensation method in physics are hard to realize and models are mismatched, we put forward a composition control method based on the combination of the feedforward compensation structure and FCMACPID control algorithm. In the design of feedforward compensation controller,we used the loading motor output shaft angular velocity as the compensation input, this kind of compensator not only effectively eliminated the surplus torque, but also reduced the whole system as well as the compensator order. To solve the contradiction between the rapidity and stability of ordinary PID controller, we studied the FCMACPID controller to ensure the stability and the rapidity had been improved. Simulation results show that the compensation controller can effectively eliminate the disturbance, and the system can quickly and accurately track the load spectrum.
