An Intelligent Response Surface Methodology for Modeling of Domain Level Constraints

An effective modeling method of domain level constraints in the constraint network for concurrent engineering （CE） was developed. The domain level constraints were analyzed and the framework of modeling of domain level constraints based on simulation and approximate technology was given. An intelligent response surface methodology （IRSM） was proposed, in which artificial intelligence technologies are introduced into the optimization process. The design of crank and connecting rod in the V6 engine as example was given to show the validity of the modeling method.

The effect of plastic constraint on the initiation of ductile tears in shipbuilding structural steels

In this paper, the effect of plastic constraint on the initiation of ductile tears in four different shipbuilding structural steels has been experimentally studied by measuring the J-integral and crack opening displacement COD at initiation in three-point bend specimens with deep and shallow notches. Experimental results of seven groups of different strength alloy steels show that both Si and Ji values of ductile tear from the shallow crack specimens which have less constraint flow field are significantly higher than those of deeply notched specimens. Slip-line-field analysis shows that, for shallow crack, the hydrostatic stress is lower than that from standard deeply cracked bend specimen, which develops a high level of crack tip constraint, provides a lower bound estimate of toughness, and will ensure an unduly conservative approach when applied to structural defects, especially if initiation values of COD and J-integral are used.     

轮轨结构参数对列车运动稳定性的影响

基于车辆—轨道耦合动力学理论,运用动力学仿真软件TTISIM,系统地分析和探讨了机车车辆的抗蛇行减振器,一系悬挂刚度,转向架轴距,车轮踏面锥度对临界速度的影响,以及轨距,钢轨小反,轨底坡,扣件刚度和阻尼等参数对列车稳定性的影响。指出在计算机车车辆的临界速度时,不仅要考虑整车的结构参数和模型,还应把轨道模型和结构参数纳入整个模型和分析过程。这对铁路机车车辆结构参数优化设计,提高或改善机车车辆运动稳定性,及既有线提速改造和高(快)速铁路修建等工程问题均具有实际意义。     

周期运行图编制模型与算法研究

在周期运行的运输组织模式下,所有列车在车站到发都是周期循环发生的。将安排列车运行线的问题看作周期事件安排问题,并借助周期约束图及周期势差模型,可以建立周期运行图网络模型。模型充分考虑到列车不同情况下的停站时间、到发安全间隔等各项周期约束,并将列车的总停留时间最小作为目标函数。当约束图顶点和弧的数量众多时,模型的求解将比较困难。通过选择合适的约束图生成树,找到变量的合理取值范围,并对模型进行一些预先简化处理,可以降低模型的求解难度。最后求解一个区段不同列车开行方案的周期运行图,验证模型的可行性。

运输方案的选择对于生产企业实现合理化运输具有重要意义。考虑总成本最小化目标,基于能力约束建立了组合运输方案选择模型。在此基础上,分别建立了存在时间效应和货物运输紧急程度情况下的决策模型,并运用LINGO 8.0软件对以上模型进行了求解,得出了最优的组合运输方案;然后进行了实例分析,并根据企业对成本和时间效应的不同侧重作了灵敏度分析。结果表明,随着成本权重的增加,运输方案将趋向选择低成本的运输方案组合;运输方案的组合具有一定的区间稳定性;在相同参数变动下,紧急货物的运输方案组合比普通货物更具有区间稳定性。     

A tool to aid redesign of flexible transport services to increase efficiency in rural transport service provision

Rural areas generally have lower and more dispersed demands for travel which cannot sustain conventional public transport services and consequently have a greater number of flexible and demand responsive transport services operating. These services usually operate on a stand-alone basis, are often subsidized and are typically only accessible by certain passenger types or for specific trip purposes. This generally results in uncoordinated and inefficient transport provision overall. The Flexible integrated transport services (FITS) system featured in this paper has been designed to address this problem. FITS can be used as a planning tool to assess potential benefits from relaxing operating constraints (e.g., a service's operating boundaries), which can potentially suggest service redesign. It also includes the capacity to assign subsidy payments on a trip by trip basis to increase cost efficiency whilst meeting a greater proportion of transport needs. The case study in the paper focusses on transport to health in the Aberdeenshire and Morayshire areas of Scotland in the UK. Despite flexible transport operators receiving public funds to meet passenger needs, this is currently being supplemented by public bodies paying large amounts in taxi fares in instances where there is a statutory obligation to provide travel but where no other suitable transport service exists. The results demonstrate the potential substantial savings which could be realized by allowing transport operators to redesign their services by relaxing constraints and by the reassignment of subsidies: resulting in more passenger demands being met and a reduction in public spending on taxi fares.     

既有线轨道质量指数的分布与不平顺权重系数统计分析

利用轨检车在沪宁线苏州—南京段线路上检测的不平顺数据,计算既有沪宁线的轨道质量指数(TQI),运用统计方法对轨道质量指数的频数分布和里程分布进行分析。结果表明,线路90%以上的TQI数值处于13以下。通过对单项不平顺占轨道质量指数权重进行统计分析,得到单项不平顺的管理值。分析表明,对沪宁线而言,左、右高低不平顺和水平不平顺在TQI中占的比重较大,对轨道质量的影响较大。根据统计得到的TQI管理值和各项不平顺所占权重,各项不平顺小于管理值之内的里程均大于78%。说明将沪宁既有提速线路的TQI管理值定为13基本能保证线路的质量状态。
