Abstract:
Optimization methods to control the in-flight shutdown rate and the maintenance cost of civil aero-engines are presented in this paper. The mathematical planing approach to determine the optimal in-flight shutdown rate of an aero-engine is developed, in which the lost expectation of in-flight shutdown is taken as the index of indirect operating cost and the minimum sum of maintenance cost and indirect operating cost is treated as the optimization objective. On the basis of the mathematical planing, a simple optimization method to control in-flight shutdown rate and maintenance cost is provided.

WANG Xiao-xin, YUAN Xiu-gan
2000, 26(4): 408-411.
Abstract:
The effect of parameters on radial heat conductive coefficient is analyzed by researching into radial heat conductivity of rubber particles in fixed bed. The fluidized bed should be applied to enhance the process of heat transfer between gas and solids in order to minimize the effect of lower heat conductivity of rubber. It is indicated that vibration strengthen more than gas velocity affects heat transfer in vibrated fluidized bed (VFB) from the analysis of the correlations. In the case of reaching the same heat transfer results, the VFB can decrease gas velocity more than common fluidized bed can do, and energy conservation may be realized by using VFB technology.

ZHANG Ying-shi
2000, 26(4): 412-415.
Abstract:
Vibrations of non-unitary materials n-step one-way rectangular plates are researched. Differential equations of free/forced vibrations for such plates are established by using singular functions, their general solutions solved with method of initial parameter. The traditional solvent of static and dynamic problems for stepped prismatic beams is to set up ordinary differential equation in each step and answer it respectively. That is so troublesome. With W operator, resolution of the former may be expressed with one equation only, and expression of vibration mode function/frequency equations of plate on usual supports derived. Forced responses of like that plates stated here under different-type loads discussed with generalized functions. Influence functions given here are strong tools to settle ordinary differential equations which described in the text. It can also be to deal with problems of static buckling and steadiness of stepped beams or one-way rectangular plates.

ZHANG Jing-bai, LI Chun-xuan
2000, 26(4): 416-419.
Abstract:
The steric effects for bimolecular dissociation were investigated via the collision theory, and a sterically dependent bimolecular dissociation model was established. In order to validate the developed model, the rate constants of typical reactions taken place in air under thermal equilibrium condition were then calculated based on the new model, and were compared with the results obtained by the classical collision theory, as well as the available experimental data. As shown by the Arrhenius plots presented in this paper that the new model would provide more accurate results than the classical collision theory, when compared with the experimental data. The plots also depict some exceptional cases in the reactions of N2+N and O2+O, where there are discrepancies among the theoretical and experimental data. These discrepancies are also discussed in the present paper.

2000, 26(4): 420-423.
Abstract:
By means of the rank statistical method and the mean ranks of the incomplete fatigue life data, the distribution parameter estimation formulas are derived.

2000, 26(4): 432-434.
Abstract:
The conditions satisfied for the existential instantiation and the universal generalization in the natural deduction system are described clear, whereas they are described rather vaguely in many textbooks on discrete mathematics.

CHENG Ji-hua, FAN Yu-qing
2000, 26(4): 443-446.
Abstract:
Model simplification is used in a variety of disciplines, such as virtual reality, CAD/CAM, dynamic simulation and so forth. This paper presents a new method to delete vertex of the mesh model, which is based on volume criterion. To decide whether certain vertex can be removed, the method uses the variety value of volume when the vertex is removed as criterion. By the method, the simplified model can approximate original model very well. Because the volume criterion has distinct geometry and engineering meaning, the simplified model can be used as both displaying model and designing model. In order to improve the mesh quality, the paper introduces an optimal method based on swapping diagonal for re-triangulating the local mesh. The paper also gives an example to illustrate efficiency of the method.

2000, 26(4): 451-453.
Abstract:
A new type of combined seal system with ferromagnetic flow and gas along cylindrical spiral groove is proposed in this paper. Based on the study of the two seals respectively, experiments on the combined seal system are carried out. Results show that the seal system has enough seal ability to fulfil the speed limit from zero to designed value. At high speed, gas seal can prevent the splash of ferromagnetic flow effectively and restore the seal ability when the seal film of ferromagnetic flow breaks up, so it is a pollution-free and reliable seal. It is also revealed that the combined seal is characterized by being adapted to diverse seal occasion by adjusting structural design parameters. The performances are beyond the reach of other kind of non-contact seals.
Two Improvements to an Algorithm of Feature Recognition
XU Shi-xin
2000, 26(4): 454-456.
Abstract:
Two improvements are discussed with regard to an important type of feature recognition algorithm, which is Falcidieno's algorithm. Firstly, when extracting the explicit features, the original algorithm cannot handle the case when protrusion features and depression features are adjacent. But the improved algorithm can do. It deals with the mixed loop, which is composed of convex edges and concave edges, and then classifies the features into protrusion ones and depression ones. Secondly, a property to extract the implicit protrusion features is discovered. And the method to treat with the implicit features is modified. Hence more kinds of implicit protrusion features can be recognized. These improvements extend remarkably the application range of the algorithm.

LIU Qiang
2000, 26(4): 457-460.
Abstract:
The algorithm of partial least-squares regression(PLSR) is briefed firstly. The PLSR analysis is applied to the sample data sets of cutting tool wear under different machining conditions. Six independent variables for modeling including cutting speed V, cutting force components Fx, Fy and Fz, as well as force ratios Fy/Fx and Fz/Fx, are screened from eight original variables based upon the variable important projection and the factor loading. The model with the six independent variables and the flank wear of cutting tool as the dependent variable is built up by using PLSR approach. Two sample data sets, one under the cutting conditions covered in the modeling data and the other under new different cutting conditions, are used to verify the model respectively. The results demonstrate that the variable screening is reasonable and the satisfied values of the flank wear of cutting tools can be obtained from the PLSR model.

Evaluations of Interface Management by Gray Cluster and Empirical Study
GUAN Jian-cheng, ZHANG Hua-sheng
2000, 26(4): 465-469.
Abstract:
The interface management between R&D/Marketing and R&D/Production is essential to commercialization of S&T achievements and success of technological innovation. It is, however, very difficult to evaluate levels of the interface management for an enterprise during its innovative process. The paper presents a gray cluster analysis with intervals, in order to assess the integration of interface management for the concerned firms. The proposed method, which can address the critical problems faced, has several advantages. First, it can quantify the impact factors on the interface and identify different perceptions of importance about the same factor between the two sides of the interface, too. It is also more facilitating to decide the evaluating standards by using the analysis technique than before. The interface between R&D and marketing in some typical firms is then empirically assessed to test the validity of the method. The results indicate the proposed analytic tool is indeed effective.
Identification of Optimal Subspace from PLS Regression
WANG Hui-ping, LIU Qiang, TU Yong-ping
2000, 26(4): 473-476.
Abstract:
Partial least-squares regression, a novel approach for multivariate analysis, is widely used for modeling a multi-collinear variable data set, with improved model accuracy and reliability based on building a subspace with most explanatory ability to the data set. In this paper the factor analysis method is presented to transform orthogonally the optimal subspace, which is obtained from partial least-squares regression. The transformation can identify each factor in a meaningful way but does not change the results of partial least-squares regression model. Therefore, the physical meaning of the optimal subspace of partial least-squares regression can be illustrated. A case study demonstrates that the original variable set is divided into several variable groups after the orthogonal transform, each of which is corresponding to a new factor in the subspace such that its explanatory ability is improved.

A class of parameter estimation problem is put forth with bounded data uncertainties, and solved it based on linear matrix inequalities (LMI). The uncertainties are expressed by a priori bounds on perturbations of coefficient matrix and its elements, which covers some situations explored in [3] and [4] and is a more general one. Thus, the proposed method, which based on LMI, is simple, practical, and general. We analyzed the solution, and discussed several special cases, such as selected columns are subject to perturbations. Simulation results give more details of the proposed method.

2000, 26(4): 485-489.
Abstract:
A study of electrical properties of P doped hydrogenated nanocrystalline silicon films (nc-Si:H) indicate that the room temperature dark conductivity σ is in the range of 10-1-101S·cm-1,two magnitudes higher than that of undoped nc-Si:H films. We also found the relationship between doping concentration Np and σ, that is strikingly similar to the pc-Si films. The conductivity activation energy ΔE of P-doped nc-Si:H is (1-3)×10-2eV, lower than the undoped nc-Si:H films. Otherwise, we investigated the piezo-resistance effect of P doped samples. Compared with undoped nc-Si:H samples, the piezo-resistance coefficient K is lower. We discussed the effect of hydrogen content to the K values.
