Theoretical and experimental evaluation of the limit state of transit gas pipelines having corrosion defects

The limit carrying capacity of gas pipelines having corrosion defects were evaluated by means of an improved FEM analysis, together with the ANSI/ASME defect judgement and an experimental verification. When compared with our past presentation at the proceedings of the CAPE'93 Colloquium (dealing with reproduced defects), this paper evaluates the remaining lifetime of a pipeline having natural faults. The new improved analysis includes geometrical nonlinearities leading to a modification of limit state parameters and thus matching better with actuality. This presented work was initiated by the firm of Trans-Gas in Prague after having had a pipeline inspected proving some parts of it as being heavily corroded. The task in hand was to determine the remaining pipeline lifetime with the view to at least a two-year period.

为保证电镀塑料制品的质量,提出了符合电镀要求的塑料制品设计原则,并且指出在注塑成形时,对塑料经过充分干燥,采用较高的注塑温度,较低的注射压力和较慢的注射速度,是使镀层获得良好结合强度的先决条件。     

Univariate marginal distribution algorithm dynamics for a class of parametric functions with unitation constraints

In this paper, we introduce a mathematical model for analyzing the dynamics of the univariate marginal distribution algorithm (UMDA) for a class of parametric functions with isolated global optima. We prove a number of results that are used to model the evolution of UMDA probability distributions for this class of functions. We show that a theoretical analysis can assess the effect of the function parameters on the convergence and rate of convergence of UMDA. We also introduce for the first time a long string limit analysis of UMDA. Finally, we relate the results to ongoing research on the application of the estimation of distribution algorithms for problems with unitation constraints.     

Stresses in bent copper tubing: Application to fatigue and stress-corrosion cracking failure mechanisms

The residual and applied stresses in u-bent copper tubing are addressed in the context of both cyclic fatigue and stress-corrosion cracking. Failures as a result of fatigue and stress corrosion cracking in u-bent copper tubing have been observed to initiate at nonintuitive locations when only the applied stresses on the component are considered. This paper presents both qualitative classical and quantitative finite-element stress analysis results for the forming of u-bends. The resulting residual stress distributions are compared to fracture patterns generated by both fatigue and stress-corrosion cracking mechanisms.

Techniques for quickly changing fuel gas in continuous annealing furnaces

An increasing number of annealing furnaces have recently been using cheaper and cleaner natural gas(NG)instead of liquefied petroleum gas(LPG)as fuel gas.However,the fuel gas of the furnaces often needs to be changed when NG supply is not adequate or when LPG becomes cheaper.Usually,changing the fuel gas involves changing various equipment as well as control parameters for instruments and the control system and hence is time consuming.Therefore,it is important to develop aquick process for changing fuel gas.This study discusses the techniques for quickly changing fuel gas in an annealing furnace.These techniques deal with the design of the pipe, valve and burner,the selection of the flow meter and the flow control valve,the switch of the software and parameters for the control system,as well as the operation,commissioning and hot test of the furnace when the fuel gas is changed.Using these techniques,it is possible to change fuel gas in6 h.     

TC4合金锥体模锻过程的数值模拟

采用刚塑性有限元法对钛合金锥体的模锻成形进行有限元数值模拟,分析了锥形件模锻过程中的金属流动规律,应力场、应变场、变形区的压力分布,压力的变化规律等。模拟结果表明,锥体模锻成形分为3个阶段:初期变形过程是圆柱体变形为一个小曲率壳体的阶段,应力主要集中在上模的正下方,应变主要发生在此变形区;变形中期是与下模相接触的部分参与变形的体积逐渐增大,直至最后形成所需要的锥体形状;变形后期由于摩擦作用产生严重的不均匀壁厚减薄现象。
