Subassembly identification is an effective method for solving the problem of "combinatorial explosion" in disassembly sequence planning.In order to identify and generate subassembly accurately and effectively,an algorithm of identifying and generating subassemblies in disassembly sequence planning (DSP) was proposed based on graph models and judgment matrices (GMJM) after analyzing contacts,connections and interferences between the parts in the assembly and corresponding models and matrices.Elements in subassembly collection could be added utilizing graph models and could be decreased utilizing judgment matrices,that was to say,firstly potential subassembly collection was generated retrieving the graph models in terms of criteria of subassembly recognition,then the assemblies that didn't conform to principles of continuity,stability and feasibility in terms of matrix determination formula,and the final subassembly collection consisting of ideal number that met the standards of weight,homogeneity and value would be obtained.The case of gear reducer showed the feasibility and effectiveness of the method.

The concept of adaptable-function machine was introduced,together with the significance of redesigning mechanical product for adaptable functions and that of investigating its relevant change propagation characteristics.The incidence of functions among different adaptable functions was analyzed by means of function abstraction from the point of view of conceptual design,by which the structural and behavioral incidences could be investigated based on FBS.Based on these,a change-based design process flowchart was proposed.The propagation was analyzed by structural constraints and functional constraints,and three rules of the structural constraints were proposed,including the constitution relationship,the bidirectional relationship and the functional constraint relationship.The structural incidence matrix was investigated to describe the possibility of change propagation among different structures.Several typical behavioral characteristics were summarized about change propagation,together with the model of change propagation tree which provided the theoretical principle to choose the best change propagation route.Finally,a case study of redesigning the CA6140 machine tool towards being numerically controlled was provided,and the behavior process of change propagation was used to describe the propagation behavior of specific parts in order to validate the feasibility of the proposed analysis approach.

https://doi.org/10.3785/j.issn.1006-754X.2016.01.007
In order to improve the efficiency of cutter rock-breaking, the impact of cutter spacing and loading on the rock-breaking effect of TBM were explored. With the mechanism of rock-breaking disc cutter and the theory of rock crushing, a series of simulation models were established in ABAQUS to research the granite crushing effect under different conditions on double disc cutter. After simulation analysis, the conclusion were as follows:Under some certain geological conditions, the optimal cutter spacing was 80 mm both for continuous and simultaneous load, but the rock breaking effect of continuous load was better than that of simultaneous load. By analyzing the experimental data, it could be obtained that the minimum specific energy of rock breaking was appeared between 80 mm and 90 mm. Thus, the correctness and rationality of the simulation were verified. The research is good to understand the rock-breaking mechanism of double disc cutter and to accelerate the development of domestic TBM design theory and engineering application.

Centrifuge is a calibrating device of accelerometer in inertial navigation system,and deformation of the rotator could seriously affect the calibrating accuracy.The centrifuge indoor air flow,heat transfer and heat conduction of cabinet and rotator were considered when the thermal deformation was analyzed through a multi-field coupling simulation,which combined the methods of CFD and FEM.The multi-physics coupling calculation principles were analyzed.Temperature field was calculated by using conjugate heat transfer method,and thermal deformation was obtained by the sequential coupling method.The results showed that at speed of 300 r/min,the maximum temperature rise was 1.23 ℃,and the farther away from the rotator center,the bigger temperature rise.The calculated temperature at the location for mounting accelerometer was consistent with the measured value.The radial deformation of the accelerometer location was 7.89 μm.Thermal deformation is a result of accumulated deformation,and increases with the rotating speed.

Topology optimization of hot stamping die structure was carried out, and the weight of die structure was reduced by 20%, and die's stress and deformation almost kept the same with initial design conditions. The research provides reference for the study of numerical simulation for hot stamping process and topology optimization of hot stamping die structure.

ZHOU Dong-dong, WANG Guo-dong, XIAO Ju-liang, HONG Ying
Chinese Journal of Engineering Design, 2016, 23(1): 74-81.
https://doi.org/10.3785/j.issn.1006-754X.2016.01.012
A new reconfigurable industrial robot was developed with modular method. The robot's load weight ratio reached 1/4.5 by the optimized design of its structure. Each joint of the robot had the same structure, which reduced repetitive design work. And the transmission components of the joint were all standard parts, which reduced the cost. Through the combination of joint modules and arm modules, different robot configurations could be obtained. Aiming at one robot configuration, the forward kinematics model was established with DH method. Since the robot did not have adjacent three-axis that intersected at one point, it was difficult to obtain all inverse kinematic solutions by traditional method. Thus, a new method with the combination of algebraic and geometric methods was proposed to obtain all analytical solutions. Finally, the kinematic analysis of this robot was verified by examples. The kinematic analysis could provide a basis for subsequent robot motion control.

A double mass vibrating system of self-synchronization with tri-exciter was put forward. The advantages of this system included that it had larger screening area, smaller share space and little loads transmitted to the foundation. Firstly, the dynamic differential equation of the system was established based on the Lagrange equation, and the stable solutions were obtained. Then using Hamilton principle, the self-synchronization qualification and stability condition were obtained. Using the method of controlling variables, the effects of stiffness of middle spring and the installation position of motors to the system self-synchronization and its phase difference were analyzed. The research results showed that the system could realize a stably synchronized motion when the parameters satisfied the synchronization and stability condition. The synchronous phase difference of two motors of upper body was 0° , and the phase difference which was between upper and lower body was 180°. Finally, the results of electromechanical-coupling simulation model verified the correctness of theoretical analysis. The study provides theoretical basis for design and analysis of this system.

LNG(liquefied natural gas) gasification station resently usually separates the tank pressure adjustment from the peak-shaving technique, so the system is relatively complex and need a large investment. Through demonstration research, a system scheme which was combined by the tank pressure adjustment and peak-shaving technique was proposed. Aiming at the characteristics of large lag, time-varying and nonlinear in the storage tank pressure system, the control strategy by taking the generalized predictive control algorithm as the core and the fuzzy control as dynamic feedback compensation was adopted. Accurate pressure control of the storage tank was realized combining with the characteristics of DSP and FPGA device for high-speed data processing. In system practical operation, the control was proved with the advantages of quick adjustment, real-time and strong robustness. And the results showed that the outlet pressure fluctuation of the gasification station was less than 3.5%, and it had a good peak-shaving effect. This system has the characteristics of simple structure, strong anti-interference ability and good peak-shaving effect. And it provides a new idea for city gas peak-shaving system.
