The heliostat is different from the ordinary low building because of the special shape of the heliostat. The wind tunnel pressure test is carried out the model of heliostats in the range of azimuth angles are between 0° to 180° and the range of elevation angles are between 0° to 90. The wind pressure time history of each measuring point on the mirror panel are obtained. On this basis, the mean wind pressure distribution of the mirror panel under typical working conditions is obtained, and then the maximum (minimum) value of the mean wind pressure under all working conditions and corresponding working conditions and measuring points are obtained. Then 10 representative measuring points are selected to study the variation law of wind pressure with wind direction angle and pitch angle respectively, and then the variation law of the mean wind pressure of 10 measuring points under all working conditions is obtained. Finally, the interference effect of the mean wind pressure of heliostats is studied, and the variation law of the interference effect of the mean wind pressure is obtained, and the maximum value, minimum value and corresponding working conditions of the interference effect are obtained. The results show that the maximum value of the mean wind pressure of heliostats under all working conditions is appeared at the measurement point of the lower edge of the mirror panel and on working condition 15-60 (wind direction angle - elevation angle), and the minimum value is appeared at the measurement point of the upper left corner of the mirror panel and on working condition 150-20. The variation law of the mean wind pressure of 10 measuring points under all working conditions is similar, and the position of measuring points has little effect on the variation law of the mean wind pressure under all working conditions. Only the working condition of the maximum value and minimum value are affected by the position of the measuring points. The mean wind pressure distribution under the most unfavorable working condition of heliostats is obtained, the maximum (minimum) value of the interference effect and corresponding working conditions are obtained. Which can be a reference for structural design and research.

The major structure for transmitting forces in a cable-stayed bridge is the stay cable. If the stay cable system fails, the whole bridge will collapse. At present, there is no very mature technical means for the detection of bridge cables. The most common method is for workers to perform regular manual inspection and replacement of cables. Although the defect condition of the cable can be detected to a certain extent, the real-time monitoring of its health cannot be realized. Therefore, the research used the median filter, mean standardization method and Retinex algorithm to preprocess the image data. And after extracting the stay cable picture’s macroscopic characteristics using the Gabor wavelet transform, it implemented image segmentation using the OTSU approach. The obtained feature images were applied to the Faster Regional Convolution Neural Network (RCNN) recognition model to detect microscopic defects. During the research, the training efficiency of traditional Convolution Neural Network (CNN) was not high. Therefore, Faster RCNN built a cable defect recognition model. Based on this, the research built an intelligent detection model for apparent defects of stay cables based on Gabor wavelet transform and improved RCNN. Through the experimental analysis, the model built for the study has a recognition accuracy rate of 94.14 %, which can achieve dynamic bridge health monitoring and instantly identify the condition of the stay cables, and maintain the safety of the bridge.

The research mainly focuses on the fatigue strength characteristics of 6061-T6 aluminum alloy fillet welds under different vibration frequencies. Firstly, by introducing Stress Life Curve (S-N Curve) and Probability Stress Life Curve (P-S-N Curve), the external vibration stress effects of the main load-bearing points in the stress environment of welded joints are analyzed. Subsequently, a vibration test control system is designed to analyze the relationship between vibration frequency and fatigue strength through nominal stress analysis and hot spot stress analysis. The research findings revealed that under the nominal stress analysis method, the P-S-N fitting curve showed a declining trend with an increase in fatigue life for stress variation curves with survival rates of 50 %, 95 %, and 97.7 % at vibration frequencies of 57.5 Hz, 67.5 Hz, and 77.5 Hz. At the same survival rate stress conditions, the fatigue life variation formed by resonance frequency was smaller, and the fatigue life in the resonance state was relatively lower. There is a certain correlation between vibration frequency and fatigue strength, with resonance frequency corresponding to relatively low fatigue life. This research result helps to reveal the fatigue behavior of 6061-T6 aluminum alloy fillet welds under different vibration stresses, providing a reference for the structural safety design of aluminum alloy components.

The world is facing a limited supply of fossil fuel resources and stringent environmental constraints. Therefore, it is very important to develop advanced technologies to improve vehicle fuel economy, especially for construction vehicles, which have large engine displacements and poor emission characteristics. The majority of these vehicles use hydraulic mechanical transmission in the power train in order to improve maneuverability. However, a key issue on the hydraulic mechanical transmission is the low-efficiency torque converter. Focusing on this issue, we proposed the power reflux hydraulic transmission system (PRHTS), which is a new continuously variable transmission system. The PRHTS can improve the overall transmission efficiency of the power train by splitting the engine power into mechanical and hydraulic power. Therefore, the PRHTS is a valid solution to reduce the fuel consumption and subsequently decrease emissions from construction vehicles. In order to quantitatively study the effect of using the PRHTS on improving the fuel economy for construction vehicles, a wheel loader coupled with the PRHTS is modeled, and numerical simulation is conducted under the wheel loader driving condition. The simulation results show that the total fuel consumption of the wheel loader coupled with PRHTS is reduced by 3.39 % compared with that of the original wheel loader.

The structural seismic performance of steel frame-precast steel reinforced concrete (SRC) infill wall with lateral force resisting is analyzed, and the structural strength of steel frame-precast SRC infill wall with lateral force resisting is improved. The structural seismic performance optimization model of SRC lateral force resisting wall based on buckling restrained brace is proposed. Through the finite element simulation software, the seismic performance and response results of ordinary steel frames, buckling restrained braced steel frames and a relatively new type of sacrificial-energy dissipation braced steel frames under earthquake are compared and analyzed to demonstrate the applicability and performance advantages of sacrificial-energy dissipation braced steel frames in the steel frame braced structure system. Under the action of horizontal earthquake, the supporting members experience reciprocating axial tension and compression cycles, which dissipate a large amount of seismic energy input into the structure. Therefore, the buckling restraint support method can be used in the structure to improve the support strength. Under horizontal reciprocating load action of earthquake, the ability to consume seismic energy through self-hysteresis of the brace is poor. Experimental research shows that, the unbalanced force formed in the beam of the frame beam under seismic action will form a plastic hinge at the beam end at both ends of the frame beam. Especially when the brace is buckling unstable and the stiffness of the frame beam is small, the plastic hinge effect at the beam end is significant. This phenomenon may cause damage to the frame beam or even local floor subsidence. The buckling restraint support has a full hysteresis area under axial tension and compression, and its mechanical performance is excellent. It is obviously superior to ordinary steel bracing in energy dissipation capacity and seismic performance. It can accurately predict the bearing capacity of reinforced concrete under strong earthquake, and the energy dissipation distribution is more in line with the requirements of “energy seismic design method”.

Geological faults impair tunnel stability during earthquakes. This study establishes a tunnel dynamic stability evaluation index based on load/unload response ratio (LURR) theory. It considers a seismic wave as a load/unload parameter and tunnel structure strain response as a response parameter. The rationale behind this evaluation index and the factors affecting tunnel stability across fault zones under seismic conditions are investigated. Compared to the traditional dynamic instability criterion, the LURR accurately measures the degree of structural deviation from the steady state and better determines the potential destabilization region of the structure. As the peak value of the input seismic wave increases, the LURRs of the more unstable parts increase, while the LURRs of the stable parts remain unchanged. According to LURR theory, the size of the range affected by the fault on the tunnel during an earthquake depends mainly on inherent fault properties (i.e., the dip angle, strike, and thickness), independent of the earthquake intensity. Because the LURR can theoretically be infinite, its dynamic instability threshold cannot be determined accurately.

The static fluid-induced force and stiffness coefficient of the smooth annular seal directly affect the rotor system stability. In this paper, a computational fluid dynamics method is applied to investigate the flow characteristics of a smooth annular seal for various eccentricities, discharge/supply pressures and rotational speeds under different flow conditions (laminar, transition, and turbulent flow). The influence factors and formation mechanism of the static instability in the smooth annular liquid seal are analyzed. Results show that laminar flow dominates the flow state at a rotational speed of ω= 2000 rpm. As the rotational speeds increase, the transition flow (2000-7000 rpm) gradually transits to the turbulent regime (ω> 7000 rpm). The direct static stiffness decreases first and then increases from laminar to transition flow state, and the viscosity effect is the dominant factor. For transition and turbulent flow with high eccentricities (ε= 80 %), the dominant viscous effect and inertial effect lead to the negative radial force and negative direct static stiffness coefficients. The smooth annular liquid seal shows best performance in the laminar flow and worst performance in the turbulent flow.

In order to enable the offshore wind farm to produce electric energy efficiently, stably and economically, the optimization method of CSA-KJ airfoil is proposed, and the optimized CSA-KJ4412 airfoil is obtained, and the aerodynamic characteristics of the airfoil are compared and analyzed. Combined with Wilson method, the high-power CSAKJ4412-08 wind turbine blade is designed, the flow field characteristics of the blade under different working conditions are simulated and analyzed, and its power is verified. The results show that compared with the NACA4412 airfoil, the average lift-drag ratio coefficient and the maximum value of the CSA-KJ4412 airfoil increase. Meanwhile, the pressure distribution rises, and the aerodynamic characteristic is better. The fluid around CSAKJ4412-08 blade at different attack angles is attached to the blade surface tightly for adhesive flow, and no stall phenomenon is identified. The pressure on the suction and pressure surfaces for the optimized CSAKJ4412-08 blade shows an opposite trend as the wingspan in-creases, leading to an increase in the pressure difference between the upper and lower surfaces, thereby improving the lift of the blade. In the range of –30° to 30° attack angle, the power of CSAKJ4412-08 blade increases first and then decreases as the attack angle rises, and the ratio of the maximum power to the rated value reaches 71.38 %, indicating that the optimized CSAKJ4412-08 blade exhibits better aerodynamic characteristics. The relevant results can provide technical reference for the optimal design of wind turbine blades.

Embedded turnout is one of the key facilities in the embedded track network of modern tram systems. In this study, the damping performance and track stiffness of an embedded turnout are tested on site. A multi-rigid body dynamics model of the tram and a finite-element dynamics model of the embedded turnout are established, and the two models are coupled based on the wheel-rail contact theory for the turnout area. Next, the dynamic responses of the tram passing through the embedded turnout are analyzed. The results show that the embedded turnout has favorable damping performance. The high stiffness of variable section rails at the switch and frog would lead to an increase in the wheel-rail dynamic force. When the tram passes through the embedded turnout, the wheel-rail vertical force reaches maximum values of 106.3 and 35.2 kN at the frog and switch, respectively; the maximum wheel derailment coefficient and wheel weight reduction rate are 0.49 and 0.57, respectively, which are within the safety limit specified in the Standards; the maximum lateral and vertical vibration accelerations of the tram body are 0.38 and 0.71 m/s2, respectively, satisfying the comfort requirements; the wheel–rail wear work at the switch is greater than that at the frog.

Cast steel parts can realize rapid prototyping effectively, which is suitable for complex structural design. However, due to the large residual stress, the problem of mechanical property degradation is more obvious. In order to solve this problem, a high temperature excitation vibration treatment scheme is proposed in this paper. By applying different excitation frequencies and impact forces, the effects of mechanical properties and stress corrosion properties are studied and verified. Based on the finite element software ANSYS, the modal shape and resonant frequency of the cast steel parts are obtained, and verified by the sweep frequency module in the excitation vibration system. According to the characteristics of modal shape, five typical detection paths are set, and stress sensors are arranged every 200 mm. In order to obtain the specific effects of excitation frequency and impact force amplitude on mechanical properties, nine parts samples were prepared on the same production line according to the matching requirements of test parameters. In addition, the main external parameters that remain unchanged during vibration excitation are set as initial 750 ℃ and vibration excitation time of 60 s, which can fully affect the effect of austenite transformation. Keeping the synchronization of test parameters in different samples, the distribution rules of residual stress under different excitation frequencies and forces are obtained and analyzed. In the aspect of mechanical properties, the microstructure, hardness, yield strength and tensile strength of the specimens subjected to vibration were compared and analyzed. In the aspect of stress corrosion performance research, stress corrosion cracking test was carried out in weak acid environment to obtain the tensile stress curve and fracture morphology of the specimen. The results show that the excitation vibration at high temperature can effectively eliminate the residual stress of cast steel parts, but the increase of excitation frequency does not correspond to the effect of residual stress elimination. When the exciting force exceeds a certain value, the stress relief effect cannot be further improved. Excitation vibration can reduce the internal hardness of cast steel parts to a certain extent, and improve the yield strength and tensile strength. At the same time, it has a positive role in promoting the improvement of stress corrosion resistance.
