A probability-based approach is presented as the integration of probabilistic methods and deterministic modelling based on the finite element method. An existing finite element software package was linked to an existing probabilistic package to analyse the complex mechanics that occur during the transient non-linear analysis of impact problems. This methodology is applied to a pipe whip analysis of a group-distribution-header, which results from a guillotine break, and subsequent impact with the adjacent building wall; this is a postulated accident for the Ignalina Nuclear Power Plant RBMK-1500 reactors. The uncertainties of material properties, component geometry data and loads were taken into consideration. The probabilities of failure of the impacted header and of the header support-wall were estimated given uncertainties in material properties, geometrical parameters and loading. The software ProFES was used for the probabilistic analysis and the finite element software NEPTUNE for deterministic structural integrity evaluation. The Monte Carlo Simulation, First Order Reliability method and Response Surface method were used in the probabilistic analysis. 相似文献

Maintenance and repair specialists of rolling stock face the problem related to accurate and reliable assessment of the vibrations of the car body of passenger rail vehicle, caused by wheel damage, and its impact on passengers. Another important aspect is to deter-mine the permissible speed at which the passenger car with wheel damage could move to the nearest station or depot without badly damaging the rails. The purpose of this research is to examine the dynamic processes of the interaction of the passenger car chassis with the railway track using a newly developed mathematical models called the “Passenger Car - Track” system. During the simulation, the dynamic characteristics of the track, bogies and car body in different season temperature were estimated. The validation of theoretical results was obtained based on the field tests of the test train as well as the results of measurements of changes in track stiffness temperatures. Finally, conclusions and suggestions are presented. 相似文献

Stress corrosion cracks have been discovered in Group Distribution Headers (GDH) at the Ignalina and Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plants. This increases the probability that a guillotine pipe break can occur that creates a whipping pipe (GDH) with the potential to damage surrounding structures—i.e. adjacent GDH and its attached piping or adjacent reinforced concrete compartment wall. The GDH is the most important component for reactor safety in case of an accident. Emergency Core Cooling System (ECCS) piping is connected to the GDH piping such that, during an accident, coolant passes from the ECSS into the GDH.Presented in this paper is the transient analysis of a Group Distribution Header following a guillotine break at the blind end of the header. Using a very conservative force loading function, the transient response of a whipping RBMK-1500 GDH along with neighboring concrete walls and pipelines is obtained using finite element methodology.The results of the study, assuming that the impacted GDH does not suffer stress corrosion cracking, indicate that the structural integrity of the compartment should be maintained and failure should not propagate from GDH to GDH. 相似文献

This paper presents a principled analysis of various combinations of image features to determine their suitability for remote
eye tracking. It begins by reviewing the basic theory underlying the connection between eye image and gaze direction. Then
a set of approaches is proposed based on different combinations of well-known features and their behaviour is evaluated, taking
into account various additional criteria such as free head movement, and minimum hardware and calibration requirements. The
paper proposes a final method based on multiple glints and the pupil centre; the method is evaluated experimentally. Future
trends in eye tracking technology are also discussed. 相似文献

The change of thermal state and phase transformation intensity of sprayed water, n-hexane, n-heptane and n-decane is numerically modelled in the case, as droplets are heated by conduction; the influence of the Knudsen layer is neglected; warming and evaporation of the droplets has no influence on the state of the carrying air flow. The research results prove that a peculiar change of the thermal state of sprayed liquid, irrespective of droplet’s dispersivity, exists in the time scale, expressed by Fourier number. The above-mentioned change can be conveniently defined by the characteristic curves, representing the change of a droplet surface, centre, and mean mass temperatures, which are sensibly influenced by temperature of gas mixture and partial pressure of liquid vapour in it. As these characteristic curves were expressed in regards to the initial and equilibrium evaporation temperatures of liquid, the universal curves, representing the change of thermal states of the examined liquids, were obtained in the time scale, expressed by Fourier number. It is shown that liquid evaporation rate and the change of a droplet dimension can also be described by characteristic curves. 相似文献

The growth of Chrysosporium merdarium on TiO2 (rutile, anatase) and its possibility to deteriorate the surface were investigated. Treated with fungi and untreated samples of deteriorated TiO2 surfaces were studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). Microbial deterioration of TiO2 is also discussed. The attachment to the TiO2 surface via metabolic products resulted in the formation of cryptand [2,2,2] complex with Ca2+ ions. According to water contact angle (CA) measurements microbial growth increases the wettability of TiO2 film surfaces. A much more intensive fungal action during microbial treatment on rutile in comparison with that of anatase was observed. A chemical deterioration product, the volatile trimethyl borate, on rutile in exudation of C. merdarium was detected by gas chromatographic–mass spectrometric analysis. 相似文献

The Ignalina NPP has a pressure suppression type of confinement, which is referred to as the accident localization system (ALS). The ALS prevents the release of the radioactive material from the NPP to the environment during a loss-of-coolant accident (LOCA). Ten water pools are located in the two ALS towers (five pools in each tower), which separate the dry well from the wet well. These water pools condense the accident-generated steam and prevent high overpressures in the compartments.The steam distribution device (SDD), with the vertical vent pipes (nozzles) that are inserted under the water of the condensing pools, connects the dry well and the wet well. In case of an accident, these components must be capable of withstanding the dynamic loads generated by a LOCA for successful pressure suppression function.This paper presents the transient analysis of the SDD and their connections to the vertical steam corridors following a LOCA. A thermo-hydraulic analysis of the SDD was performed using the state-of-the-art COCOSYS code to determine pressure and temperature histories resulting from a LOCA. The finite element code NEPTUNE was used to evaluate the structural integrity of the SDD and its supporting reinforced concrete wall. Results show that, although portions of the SDD undergo plastic response and the outside surface of the vertical steam corridor reinforced concrete wall cracks, the structural integrity of the SDD and wall are maintained during a LOCA. 相似文献

Iron and iron oxide nanoparticles in silica layers deposited by sol–gel techniques on Si wafers were formed and studied. It was shown that multifunctional nanoparticles of different iron oxides possessing various physical properties can be fabricated by means of post-growth annealing of (SiO2:Fe)/SiO2/Si samples in various atmospheres. The hematite, maghemite, and iron nanoparticles were found to be dominant upon annealing the samples in air, argon, and hydrogen atmosphere, respectively. The physical properties of produced hybrid structures were studied by Raman and FT-IR spectroscopy, spectroscopic ellipsometry, AFM, and magnetic measurements. The sol–gel technique with subsequent annealing procedure is demonstrated to be an effective method for the formation of multifunctional hybrid structures composed of iron or iron oxide nanoparticles in silica matrix. 相似文献

Antioxidative properties of Geranium macrorrhizum, Potentilla fruticosa and Rosmarinus officinalis (as a reference) extracts were evaluated in Dutch style fermented sausages. Extracts were incorporated into sausages during preparation. The sausages were subsequently fermented, tested and compared to a standard spices mix, traditionally used for the production of such sausages. Formation of the primary oxidation products – peroxides, and secondary – TBARS and hexanal was monitored. The polar extracts from Potentilla showed some antioxidant activity, especially in combination with ascorbate, however the activity was low compared to the standard spices mix. Polar extracts from Geranium showed only negligible antioxidant activity. 相似文献

Second homes create welfare for the owner who uses the home for own recreational purposes and for tenants when the home is rented out. In addition, second homes typically generate positive externalities locally, such as seasonal job creation. The letting of second homes opens for a more intensive use of the homes and for their importance for a country’s tourism industry. This paper investigates the drivers of the decision to rent out private second homes, an area which is much less studied than second homeownership. The empirical analysis is carried out on survey data from 2386 randomly selected Danish households combined with data from administrative registers. The analysis reveals that the strongest drivers of the decision to rent out are the age of the owner of the second home and the equity of the home. Young households with low equity have a high propensity to rent out. 相似文献
