Study of Hollow Integrated Sandwich Composites’ Structure and Property

Hollow integrated sandwich composite is a new kind of 3D-woven sandwich composite which has a good integrated capability. It is and will be more and more widely used in aviation, aerospace, marine, automobile, architecture, chemical industry and other fields. Therefore, it is important to carry out theoretical and experimental investigations for this material.In this thesis studied the structural design,weaving process and the micro-geometry structure of hollow integrated sandwich composites.Then a mechanical model is build to predict its mechanical properties, experiments are performed to verify the predicted results. At last performed on both the new and traditional honeycomb sandwich composites through experiments.This topic first issued the structure and weaving process about the pre-forming textile, using transformed single rapier as well as double sending warp axis to off-warp. We innovative design “reverse-weaving” method to form the core, lead to the pro-forming textile as “8″ shape in space and this linking warp connected top and bottom panel to an overall structure.The text followed by micro-geometry structure of hollow fabric, get the smallest unit and every geometric parameters of the fabric, which including two parts of panel and core. As well as fiber’s volume content. According to the calculation of the elastic constants related to elastic properties of composites material, we can use finite element analysis to study mechanical properties and establish the finite element analysis model (Ansys model), forecasting bending stiffness, tension performance, pressure strength, side-tensile strength and side-press performance of the “8″ shape overall hollow structure composites.Finally we contrast both the overall hollow structure composites and traditional honeycomb sandwich composites through experiments, which including tension, pressure, bending and shear tests. The results show that tension, bending and shear property of the overall hollow structure composites all super to traditional honeycomb sandwich composites, however the pressure strength is similar to honeycomb sandwich composites. So to note the overall hollow structure composites can replace honeycomb composites.

Numerical Analysis of Large (Super) Vertical Crude Oil Storage Tank Foundations

With the rapid development of petrochemical industry,demand of oil in our country increases evidently. Then the inadequate oil supply is the austerity problem to which our country have to face. A large number of vertical crude oil storage tanks need to be built so that national normal strategic oil reserve could be assured. However, current domestic technology of foundation design and construction of large storage tanks are still immature. Consequently, research for foundation of large storage tanks is of practical significance providing scientific basis for the design of storage tanks. Research works done in this paper are as following:Models of ringwall foundations and pile foundations of 100,000 and 150,000 cubic meters oil tanks are established with large finite element general application ADINA.Impair to the lateral earth pressure of cushions which are inside the ringwalls of 100,000 and 150,000 cubic meters oil tanks are contrasted between the pile foundation and ringwall foundation. At the same time, the changing trend of max annular tension force in water-filled pre-pressure stage and discharge status are analyzed also.The pile foundation and ringwall foundation’s settlement and uneven settlement of 100,000 and 150,000 cubic meters oil tanks in water-filled pre-pressure stage and discharge stage is analyzed.The additional stress to the pile foundation, ringwall foundation of 100,000 and 150,000 cubic meters oil tanks and basis from the upper structure in water-filled pre-pressure stage is studied.All the results gained form those finite element analysis are compared with the norms. Further analysis about mechanical behavior of the oil tanks is conducted and corresponding conclusions are of important reference value for future design.

Chinese manufacturing industry faces great opportunity and big challenge, and the machine tool industry is the hard core of the manufacturing industry. Traditional products design and development procedure generally contains sketch design, drawing design, physical prototype manufacture and prototype experiment. This procedure makes long period and costs highly, which can not meet the integrative needs of quality, efficiency and cost. But virtual prototype technology is a kind of completely new one, whose emergence and development brings an innovation to the traditional way of products design. By applying this technology, engineer can make various simulation and analysis on the built virtual digital model of the product, which could help them to find out the potential problems and mistakes of the product in the design period, and then they can amend the mistakes and improve the design sketch quickly.

Numerical Simulations of Temperature and Stress Fields in a Super-wide Slab of Peritectic Steel Continous Casting Mold

In recent years, high efficient continuous casting technology has been looked as the primary tendency during the development of continuous casting, how to improve the quality and output of continous casting slab has been more interested. And the longitudinal crack rate of peritectic steel is much higher than other steel grades since wide slab was put into production at Wide Plate Plant.Two-dimentional (2-D) finite-element heat-transfer and stress models with moving coordinates were established to predict temperature and distribution of stress in a continous casting mold for steel slabs during operation. The effects of width of slab and operating conditions on distribution of stress on slab surface were analyzed in details, as summarized in the following.(1)At the mold exit, the distribution of the thickness of solidified shell was not even. In the wide face of slab, the thickness of solidified shell was more than 20mm near the center, and it was only 15mm near the corner.(2) The stress of the peritectic steel in the center place of slab was higher than non-peritectic steel.In the same conditions, the peritectic steel was much easier to form longitudinal crack than non-peritectic steel in the center place of slab.(3)In continous cast of peritectic steel slab, with the slab became wider, the stress on slab surface was increasd. In the center of the wide face, the incease was obvious; and the longitudinal crack was easier to form. The positions of the cracks were in the center of the wide face.(4) With the slab (3200mm×150mm) casting speed increased from 1.0m/min to 1.2m/min, the stress in the wide face center was decreased. And the amount of longitudinal crack in this area was decreased either. With the casting speed increased to 1.5m/min, the stress was inceased in the area which was 200mm from the center point of the wide face; the longitudinal crack was easier to form in this area. (5) With the slab (3200mm×150mm) superheat degree increased from 15℃to 25℃the extremum of the stress moved to the center of the wide face, and the possility of the longitudinal crack was was increased in this place.(6) With the slab cooling intensity increased, the surface stress was inceased. With the flow rate of cooling water changed from 6000L/min to 5500L/min, the slab surface stress was decreased. And the possility of the longitudinal crack was reduced. But the stress in the corner place was increased, and the shell thickness was getting thinner, the possibility of corner crack and steel breakout was increased.
