To provide evidence for enterprises to choose the best machine tool, the constraint factors affect machine tool selection optimization was analyzed and the multi-objects optimization model for machine tool selection was built with a two-stage structure and with five optimization objects include processing time T, processing quality Q, processing cost C, resources consumption R and environment impact E. Because the traditional analytic hierarchy process (AHP) did not take the fuzziness of engineers′ subjective assessment and index attributes into consideration during the construction of machine tool selection optimization judgment matrix, the reliability and accuracy of machine tool selection optimization were reduced.The algorithm of solving machine tool selection optimization was put forward and designed, based on fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (FAHP) and fuzzy comprehensive assessment (FCA). The data were standardized by membership function during the process of assessment standardizing .A case in a machine tool selection optimization of blade tenon milling by an aviation manufacturing enterprises was studied and its feasibility and validity was proved in the machine tool selection optimization.

The load spectrum simulation of actual working status is the key factor to solve the problem of crane endurance failure. The precision and robustness of load spectrum predicting have great significance for reliability analysis of crane fatigue fracture and evaluation of its safety life. However, the predicting performance of classic linear regression model is weaker. Compared with other data analysis algorithms, support vector regression machine (SVRM) has excellent performance for small sample and nonlinear properties, including higher prediction accuracy and nice robustness. It can also overcome the difficulty of the curse of dimensionality, local minima and over-fitting and under-fitting for traditional pattern recognition methods. So, accuracy prediction precision and reliability can be obtained by using SVRM. Furthermore, an improved v-SVRM prediction model was established with constructing new kernel function and decision function. The results of engineering application showed that the values of Er and of RMSRE all the three models (the BP neural network model and the SVRM model and the modified model of v-SVRM) gradually decreased while the fitting degrees R2 gradually increased. It proves that the modified method has higher prediction precision and nicer robustness and it also provides a new way for obtaining and predicting crane load spectrum.

Drive shaft is an important part in caterpillar, and it is designed with the static strength theory within the limitation of test and experimental conditions. Thus the actual dynamic characteristics of drive shaft cannot be embodied, and it brings difficulty to predict the life of parts with given dynamic loads and results in wide gap between actual life and designed. The virtual running test platform was built based on ADAMS.ATV, and the dynamic load suffered by drive shaft in different working condition was obtained. Then the fatigue life of drive shaft was analyzed with fatigue life prediction model of drive shaft established by MSC.Fatigue, and the structure of drive shaft was improved. The study case proved the new method was feasible to predict fatigue life of drive shaft, and tracked vehicles for fatigue life prediction under complex operating conditions were explored. The study results can widely extended to other engineering domains, and the prospective of analysis method applied in related engineering system is presented.

A hybrid cutterhead driving system combing frequency conversion motor with hydraulic motor was proposed to solve the cutterhead stuck strait of a Hard Rock Tunnel Boring Machine (TBM). Added with a constant value, the speed signal of electronic motor under torque following master slave strategy was used to regulate the displacement of the pump, the redundant fluent venting by the proportional relief valve built proportionally controllable work pressure of the hydraulic motor.The hybrid driving system was founded on the TBM test rig.With the purpose of finding an optimal variable displacement pump control strategy, Load Sensitive Control System (LSCS), Flow Feedback Proportional Control System (FFPCS) and cylinder Displacement Feedback Proportional Control System (DFPCS) were respectively established in AMEsim. The flow and press responses of variable displacement pump under different control strategies indicated that LSCS couldn't track the jump change of speed signal, FFPCS and DFPCS had similar dynamic respond of input signal. Considering the high expense and low reliability of flux transducer, though FFPCS has the advantage of accuracy and efficiency, DFPCS is finally selected to be used in the text rig.

Chinese Journal of Engineering Design, 2015, 22(5): 381-386.
https://doi.org/10.3785/j.issn. 1006\|754X.2015.04.012
In existing gear longitudinal vibration system, the amplitudes of gear and horn are small at the connection site, so the output amplitude of gear is small and cannot meet the requirement of gear ultrasonic machining. Based on non-resonant design theory and whole resonant design theory, a new gear longitudinal vibration system, which consisted of a coupling vibration unit of gear and cylinder rod, a half-wavelength cone horn and a transducer, was designed. The amplitudes of gear and horn were large at the connection site of this new system, and the output amplitude of gear was increased as well. When the parameters of cone horn were certain, the diameters of gear and cylinder rod made no influence on the output amplitude of gear. However, the smaller the diameter of the small-end cone horn was, the larger the output amplitude of gear was. The feasibility and effectiveness of this new design method was verified by finite element analysis and resonant vibration experiment. A new design method for gear vibration system is provided which has important significance to the engineering application of gear ultrasonic machining.

To explore the wear law of WK-75 mining excavator bucket tooth in terms of the size and the physical properties of the material, a three-dimensional parametric model of bucket and arm was established by UG and was imported into a finite element software. By the simulation analysis of bucket digging along the ideal digging track, the main wear parts of bucket was identified. The result was consistent with the actual situation, verifying the correctness of the model. Then the wear law of bucket tooth was explored from the aspect of density, hardness, size and shape of the material. The research work showed that the average wear depth of bucket tooth increased with the increase of density, hardness, particle size and sharp degree of the material, providing a certain reference for optimizing bucket structure from the term of reducing bucket tooth wear subsequently.

For exploring the selection and optimization method of disc spring parameters under specific conditions, with the disc spring as the research object in the article, disc spring parameters under the specific conditions was analyzed. According to the work principle and constraint conditions, analytic expression of initial compression displacement of the disc spring with limiting displacement was presented by means of the mathematic method. Based on the numerical analysis software MATLAB, the mathematical model for calculation of disc spring was established. According to specific given conditions, one convergence criteria of iterative solution of initial compression displacement was established combined with the calculation parameters of disc spring. For solving the mathematical model, the corresponding program was compiled, and the detail solution data of the correlation parameter of disc spring was obtained under the specific condition. After comprehensive consideration of the related factors, the optimized disc spring compression displacement value was accepted. The results showed that all the calculated height of the disc spring was nonlinear. With the increase of the set numbers of combination disk spring, the calculated height also increased. In addition, thinking of the cost, friction and disc spring design requirements, some design parameters of the disc spring should be appropriately optimized to satisfy the need of engineering design.
