ANALOG PREDISTORTION LINEARIZER ON REDUCING CORRECTED AMPLITUDE OVERSHOOT

This paper presents a dual-nonlinear branch linearizer for reducing the corrected amplitude overshoot of conventional single nonlinear branch linearizer. Theoretical analysis is carried out, the analysis is verified by simulation, and a prototype of Ka band 25.28-26.08 GHz dual nonlinear branch linearizer is achieved. It indicates that the corrected amplitude overshoot is less than 0.5 dB, the C/I3 improvement is more than 10 dB related to a single carrier IBO 9 dB, when it is linked and tested for 50 W spacebrone Travelling Wave Tube Amplifier （TWTA）.     

Capacity allocation problem in flexible manufacturing systems: branch and bound based approaches

This study considers an operation assignment and capacity allocation problem that arises in flexible manufacturing systems. The machines have limited time and tool magazine capacities and the available tools are limited. Our objective is to maximise total weight of assigned operations. We develop a branch and bound algorithm that finds the optimal solutions and a beam search algorithm that finds high quality solutions in polynomial time.     

Two-points-based receptance coupling method for tool-tip dynamics prediction

Tool-tip frequency response function (FRF) is essential to predict chatter vibration in milling. This key input can be acquired by experimental tests, but a new test has to be performed for every tool clamped on the machine. To avoid such time-consuming procedures, receptance coupling methods have been developed, allowing coupling of the experimental dynamic response of the machine to the numerical model of the tool. Such techniques require joint rotation response, which is hard to experimentally identify. Inversion of receptance coupling technique is usually performed on additional experimental measurements to overcome this issue. This procedure amplifies measurement uncertainties, reducing accuracy of the coupling approach. In this article, a novel receptance coupling technique is presented. Machine and toolkit are connected through two distinct points, eliminating the experimental phase and computation of rotational degrees of freedom (DOFs). Only translation responses are required, acquired by a single test setup. Proposed technique was experimentally validated on different case studies.

子结构拟动力试验中的组合数值积分方法具有显式数值积分方法无需迭代和隐式数值积分方法无条件稳定的优点。为解决CD-Newmark方法存在上限频率取值较大导致时间步长变小的问题,将显式的中心差分法和隐式的Wilson-θ法进行组合,形成CD-Wilson θ法。经计算和对Wilson-θ法做出一定修正后,得出该组合数值积分方法的稳定性和精度条件。通过Matlab软件编程,提出了CD-Wilson θ法稳定性的参数取值范围,并用算例做出对比验证。结果表明这种组合数值积分方法不仅稳定性和精度性好,而且比CD-Newmark法的时间步长范围更大。     

Kinetostatic modeling and analysis of an exechon parallel kinematic machine(PKM) module

As a newly invented parallel kinematic machine(PKM), Exechon has found its potential application in machining and assembling industries due to high rigidity and high dynamics. To guarantee the overall performance, the loading conditions and deflections of the key components must be revealed to provide basic mechanic data for component design. For this purpose, a kinetostatic model is proposed with substructure synthesis technique. The Exechon is divided into a platform subsystem, a fixed base subsystem and three limb subsystems according to its structure. By modeling the limb assemblage as a spatial beam constrained by two sets of lumped virtual springs representing the compliances of revolute joint, universal joint and spherical joint, the equilibrium equations of limb subsystems are derived with finite element method(FEM). The equilibrium equations of the platform are derived with Newton’s 2nd law. By introducing deformation compatibility conditions between the platform and limb, the governing equilibrium equations of the system are derived to formulate an analytical expression for system’s deflections. The platform’s elastic displacements and joint reactions caused by the gravity are investigated to show a strong position-dependency and axis-symmetry due to its kinematic and structure features. The proposed kinetostatic model is a trade-off between the accuracy of FEM and concision of analytical method, thus can predict the kinetostatics throughout the workspace in a quick and succinct manner. The proposed modeling methodology and kinetostatic analysis can be further expanded to other PKMs with necessary modifications, providing useful information for kinematic calibration as well as component strength calculations.

Production scheduling under uncertainty of an open-pit mine using Lagrangian relaxation and branch-and-cut algorithm

ABSTRACT

The life-of-mine optimization of open pit mine production scheduling under geological uncertainty is a computationally intensive process. Production scheduling determines the optimal extraction sequence by maximizing net present value (NPV). In this paper, an algorithm is proposed to schedule an open pit mine under geological uncertainty, where instead of solving the whole problem at once, the production schedule is generated by sequentially solving sub-problems. The sub-gradient method is used to generate the upper bound solution of a Lagrangian relaxed sub-problem. If the upper bound relaxed solution is infeasible, a mixed integer programming is applied to the latter solution. The algorithm is validated by solving six problems and is compared to the linear relaxation of the original production scheduling problem. The results show that the proposed algorithm generates a solution that is very close to optimal, with less than a 3% optimality gap. An application at a copper mine, where geological uncertainty is quantified with geostatistical simulations of the related orebody, shows that all constraints are satisfied and an 11% higher NPV is generated when compared to the corresponding deterministic equivalent of the proposed approach, while a 26% higher NPV is generated compared to a common conventional industry approach.
