基于ABAQUS的港工结构计算模型自动地应力平衡方法研究*

初始地应力场是结构-地基相互作用下有限元分析重要的初始条件，其平衡结果的精度将直接影响结构数值分析结果的准确性。虽然自动地应力平衡法操作步骤最为简单、所得结果最优，但受地基或结构形式、地基土层参数及接触等复杂条件的严重制约，其在实际中的应用非常受限。利用ABAQUS软件，在严格遵守实际地应力平衡时间节点的基础上，采用设置生死单元的方式实现初始地应力平衡前、后地基-结构所在空间单元的置换，建立通用自动地应力平衡方法及步骤，并通过多个典型港工结构模型算例进行验证。结果表明，本文的自动地应力平衡方法及步骤简单、易行，且能够方便有效地实现各种复杂情况下港工结构计算模型的初始地应力平衡。

Dynamic Behavior of Two Part Towing Cable System During Turning

An improved numerical method is used to simulate the dynamic behavior of a two part towing cable systems during turnings. In U turns and full turns, periodical heave motions are found both for the towed vehicle and for the depressor. Periodic motions of the subsea units and of the cable surface tension are closely related to the turning parameters, such as turning velocity and turning radius. System parameters, such as length of the second cable and the vehicle hydrodynamics, also damp turning instability.     

Vortex-induced vibration of a tension leg platform tendon: Multi-mode limit cycle oscillations

This paper studies the application of mathematical models to analyze the vortex-induced vibrations of the tendons of a given TLP along the Indian coastline, by using an analytical approach, analyzed using MATLAB. The tendon is subjected to a steady current load, which causes vortex-shedding downstream, leading to cross-flow vibrations. The magnitude of the excitation (lift and drag coefficients) depends on the vortex-shedding frequency. The resulting vibration is studied for possible resonant behavior. The excitation force is quantified empirically, the added mass by potential flow hydrodynamics, and the vibration by normal mode summation method. Non-linear viscous damping of the water is considered. The non-linear oscillations are studied by the phase-plane method, investigating the limit-cycle oscillations. The stable/unstable regions of the dynamic behavior are demarcated. The modal contribution to the total deflection is studied to establish the possibility of resonance of one of the wet modes with the vortex-shedding frequency.

PID在汽车防抱死系统中的仿真应用

本文通过数学建模建立了车辆动力学模型、滑移率模型、制动系统模型、轮胎模型、PID控制器等主要模型,然后建立了基于二轮车辆无ABS系统仿真模型、有PID控制器仿真模型,接着分别在高附着系数路面、低附着系数路面和对接路面上进行仿真试验。将三种不同车辆系统的制动时间、制动距离以及车轮是否抱死等性能参数进行对比分析,结果表明无ABS系统的车辆无论在哪种路况下制动,车轮均很快抱死,且制动时间最长,制动距离最大;有PID控制器的车辆可以使车轮滑移率在较短的时间内稳定在最佳滑移率处,避免了车轮抱死,制动距离与制动时间相比无ABS车辆都有明显改善。     

A new method for absolute datum transfer in seafloor control network measurement

To decrease the time consumption and the labor intensity in the absolute datum transfer of traditional seafloor control network measurement, a new method, namely sailing-circle positioning method, is put forward in this paper. First, the traditional intersection positioning model is improved by considering the equivalent sound velocity profile error as an unknown parameter in the adjustment model. Second, the effect of geometric dilution of precision (GDOP) on positioning accuracy is analyzed. By seeking for the minimum of GDOP, it is concluded that the absolute datum transfer can achieve the highest accuracy in the condition of sailing along a circle relative to other sailing paths. Moreover, the optimal radius of the circle for the accurate datum transfer is also given out. Besides, the correlation between the accuracy of datum transfer and the sound velocity error in this method is analyzed. Finally, the new method was tested and verified by the experiments in Songhua lake with the water depth of 60 m and in South China sea with the water depth of 2000 m, respectively. These experiment results show that the new method can improve the accuracy and efficiency of traditional datum transfer method significantly.

In this study, we optimize the loading and discharging operations of the Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) carrier. First, we identify the required precautions for LNG carrier cargo operations. Next, we prioritize these precautions using the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and experts’ judgments, in order to optimize the operational loading and discharging exercises of the LNG carrier, prevent system failure and human error, and reduce the risk of marine accidents. Thus, the objective of our study is to increase the level of safety during cargo operations.     

Oriented review to potential simulator for faults modeling in diesel engine

This paper presents a literature review on most of the faults and their models that are considered on a diesel engine. Several faults that may be produced on diesel engine have been analyzed, classified, modeled, and their influences on the global system have been shown. Thus, this paper aims to prepare an important data base on diesel engine faults which may help researchers to develop precise strategies on diesel engine fault diagnosis and prognosis, and also it helps in the development of diesel engine simulators aiming to study the behavior of the diesel engine in the presence of faults. Different fault models such as analytical, empirical, degradation models which may be represented as function of time or as function of the number of cycles, data driven models such as neural network models, or simply constant are presented and analyzed. The global overall models for diesel engine integrating faults are expressed. And finally, the use of these models with the most common failure density distribution functions is proposed giving a more realistic approach to our study.
