Reliability analysis of metal‐composite adhesive joints under debonding modes I,II, and I/II using the results of experimental and FEM analyses

In the present study, the experimental and finite element (FE) analyses are first carried out to investigate the deboning behavior of metal‐composite adhesive joints under modes of I and mode II loading. To conduct an FE on the debonding propagation, cohesive zone method (CZM), as well as maximum nominal stress and energy criteria, is applied. In the reliability analysis, to achieve the probability of debonding growth (PODG), limit state functions are formulated based on the energy release rate. To that end, the first‐order reliability method (FORM), the second‐order reliability method (SORM), and the Monte Carlo simulation (MCS) are used to calculate the PODG. The effect of initial debonding length on the PODG in all mentioned modes is investigated. Results obtained from reliability analysis reveal that the random variables including the initial debonding length, width, and thickness are the most sensitive variables to ascertain the PODG.     

检验THERP合理性及不足的实验研究——以汽车冷媒加注工序为例

为了检验人的失误概率预测技术（technique of human error rate prediction，THERP）的合理性及不足，以汽车内饰冷媒加注工序为例，采用E-prime实验的方法分析了冷媒加注工序的人因失误概率。通过比较发现，汽车冷媒加注工序的4个任务的人因失误概率的实验结果与THERP的理论计算结果基本一致，说明了THERP方法的合理性。并说明了THERP的不足在于计算人因失误时忽略了操作行为中的认知过程。     

基于经验模态分解方法的拉曼光谱信号处理研究

经验模态分解(EMD)方法是一个以信号内在物理频率成分为对象的自适应时频分析方法,而常见的非平稳信号分析方法,比如小波分析,它需要选择小波基,不同小波基的分析结果不同;拉曼光谱信号是典型的非线性和非平稳信号,EMD方法充分地保留了信号本身的非线性和非平稳的特征,适应于拉曼光谱信号的分析。实验在自行研制的拉曼光谱测试平台上获得了原始的拉曼光谱信号,并通过经验模态分解将信号分解成不同频率的10个本征模式分量,信号能量集中在750cm^-1和1500cm^-1左右,最后进行了频率成分分析和去噪处理,并和小波分析方法进行了对比,验证了EMD方法的有效性和实用性,该方法在拉曼光谱信号分析中有较好的应用前景。     

Multi-objective iterative optimization algorithm based optimal wavelet filter selection for multi-fault diagnosis of rolling element bearings

Rolling element bearings (REBs) play an essential role in modern machinery and their condition monitoring is significant in predictive maintenance. Due to the harsh operating conditions, multi-fault may co-exist in one bearing and vibration signal always exhibits low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), which causes difficulties in detecting fault. In the previous studies, maximum correlated kurtosis deconvolution (MCKD) has been validated as an efficient method to extract fault feature in the fault signals. Nonetheless, there are still some challenges when MCKD is applied to fault detection owing to the rigorous requirements of multiple input parameters. To overcome limitation, a multi-objective iterative optimization algorithm (MOIOA) for multi-fault diagnosis is proposed. In this method, correlated kurtosis (CK) is taken as a criterion to select optimal Morlet wavelet filter using the whale optimization algorithm (WOA). Meanwhile, to further eliminate the effect of the inaccurate period on CK, the update process of period is incorporated. After that, the simulated and experimental signals are utilized to testify the validity and superiority of the MOIOA for multiple faults detection by the comparison with MCKD. The results indicate that MOIOA is efficient to extract weak fault features even with heavy noise and harmonic interferences.     

The study on the properties of TiCxN1−x coatings processed by cathodic arc physical vapour deposition

Titanium carbonitride (TiCN) is a popular hard coating for carbide cutting tools in various applications. The properties of TiCN are within its composition and can be controlled by maintaining the C–N ratio within the coating to a certain level. This paper studied the influence of carbon content and coating composition within TiC_xN_1?x coatings with regard to their mechanical properties. The substrate used was tungsten carbide (WC-6Co), which was prepared in-house through a powder metallurgy process, while the TiC_xN_1?x coatings were deposited in-house using cathodic arc physical vapour deposition (CAPVD). TiC_xN_1?x coatings improved the mechanical properties of carbide inserts. An increase in carbon content within TiC_xN_1?x coatings improved surface lubricity, reduced coefficient of friction, improved surface microhardness and increased Young's modulus, but reduced thermal conductivity of carbide inserts. The colour of TiC_xN_1?x coatings also changed with carbon content.

针对基于人工特征的背景感知相关滤波（CACF）算法在形变、运动模糊、低分辨率情形跟踪效果较差以及跟踪器遇到严重遮挡等情形容易陷入局部最优而导致跟踪失败的问题，提出一种融合重检测机制的卷积回归网络（CRN）目标跟踪算法。在训练阶段，将相关滤波作为CRN层融入进深度神经网络，使网络成为一个整体进行端到端训练；在跟踪阶段，通过残差连接融合不同网络层及其响应值，同时引入重检测机制使算法从潜在的跟踪失败中恢复，当响应值低于给定阈值时激活检测器。在数据集OTB-2013上的实验表明，所提算法在50个视频序列上精确度达到88.1%，相比原始CACF算法提高9.7个百分点，在具有形变、运动模糊等属性的视频序列上相比原始算法表现更优秀。

Context-driven mean residual life estimation of mining machinery

Maintenance is crucial to ensure production/output and customer satisfaction in the mining sector. The cost of maintenance of mechanised and automated mining systems is very high, necessitating efforts to enhance the effectiveness of maintenance systems and organisation. For effective maintenance planning, it is important to have a good understanding of the reliability and availability characteristics of the systems. Determining the Mean Residual Life (MRL) of systems allows organisations to more effectively plan maintenance tasks. In this paper, we use a statistical approach to estimate MRL and consider a Weibull proportional hazard model (PHM) with time-independent covariates to model the hazard function so that the operating environment could be integrated into the reliability analysis. The paper explains our methods for calculating the conditional reliability function and computing the MRL as a function of the current conditions. The model is verified and validated using data from the hydraulic system of LHD equipment in a Swedish mine. The results are useful to estimate the remaining useful life of such systems; the method can be used for maintenance planning, helping to control unplanned stoppages of highly mechanised and automated systems.
