插装阀阀芯优化与仿真分析

插装阀在静止状态下，由于静摩擦的原因，导致阀芯与阀套出现卡滞现象；在运动状态下，由于压差和阀芯微偏移的原因造成阀芯与阀套发生磨损；为此提出一种新型的带有导流槽的插装阀阀芯。基于缝隙流动和液压卡紧分析，建立插装阀阀芯与阀套间隙的CFD优化仿真模型，通过N-S方程、伯努利方程和卡紧力方程联立得到阀芯与阀套间卡紧力的推导公式。基于CFD仿真模拟分析，比较新型阀芯与原阀芯不同模型间隙的切线应力、压力分布规律，结果表明：在入口压力为12 MPa时，原阀芯的切线应力在12 000 Pa上下波动，大于新型阀芯切线应力4 200 Pa；在入口压力为8 MPa时，原阀芯的切线应力在7 200 Pa上下波动，大于新型阀芯切线应力3 000 Pa；且原阀芯切线应力的波动范围远大于新型阀芯。新型阀芯在阀套间的受力更加平稳，磨损更小。研究结果为插装阀优化以及减少能量损失和改善润滑条件提供理论指导和依据。     

生物炭引起的土体回弹变化：土壤质地和生物炭用量的影响

Biochars are,amongst other available amendment materials,considered as an attractive tool in agriculture for carbon sequestration and improvement of soil functions.The latter is widely discussed as a consequence of improved physical quality of the amended soil.However,the mechanisms for this improvement are still poorly understood.This study investigated the effect of woodchip biochar amendment on micro-structural development,micro-and macro-structural stability,and resilience of two differently textured soils,fine sand (FS) and sandy loam (SL).Test substrates were prepared by adding 50 or 100 g kg-1 biochar to FS or SL.Total porosity and plant available water were significantly increased in both soils.Moreover,compressive strength of the aggregates was significantly decreased when biochar amount was doubled.Mechanical resilience of the aggregates at both micro-and macro-scale was improved in the biochar-amended soils,impacting the cohesion and compressive behavior.A combination of these effects will result in an improved pore structure and aeration.Consequently,the physicochemical environment for plants and microbes is improved.Furthermore,the improved stability properties will result in better capacity of the biochar-amended soil to recover from the myriad of mechanical stresses imposed under arable systems,including vehicle traffic,to the weight of overburden soil.However,it was noted that doubling the amendment rate did not in any case offer any remarkable additional improvement in these properties,suggesting a further need to investigate the optimal amendment rate.     

High fluid shear strain causes injury in silver shark: Preliminary implications for Mekong hydropower turbine design

The Lower Mekong Basin is facing unprecedented threats to fish diversity from hydropower development. There is increasing pressure on developers and construction authorities to design solutions to improve fish survival through turbines, thus protecting the resources in regions being developed for hydropower. A hydraulic characteristic of hydropower turbines with known fisheries impacts is fluid shear stress. Elevated shear stress occurs where rapidly flowing water passes near spillways, screens and within turbine draft tubes. Shear stress can have adverse impacts on fish, but no work has assessed whether this holds true for Mekong River species. A flume was used to determine critical tolerances of silver shark, Balantiocheilos melanopterus (Bleeker), to shear stress rates at a high‐velocity jet which simulated a hydropower turbine. Fish were assessed for injury or mortality following exposure. Results were compared against a no‐shear control. Injury and mortality were greater at higher shear stress exposures. Injuries occurred at all shear exposure levels with mortality at shear levels higher than 600/s. This approach should help design future hydropower turbines if data on other species demonstrate similar results. If the likelihood of adverse impact is high, then shear stress will need to be considered in the design of future hydropower facilities.     

黄土高原陡坡土坎植被根-土复合体抗剪强度研究

以黄土高原陡坡土坎6种典型植物群落类型为研究对象，在分析植被根系密度指标的基础上，通过直剪试验，探讨不同植物群落的根-土复合体抗剪强度以及根系对提高抗剪强度的作用。结果表明:1）6种群落的根系密度指标值均具有显著性差异，白刺花-铁杆蒿群落的根重密度、根长密度和根表面积密度在所有群落类型中均为最高，分别为2 757.07 g/m³、17 886.22 m/m³和16.96 m²/m³；2）6种群落之间的根-土复合体的抗剪强度均显著高于素土抗剪强度，其中白刺花-铁杆蒿群落相对于素土的抗剪强度增加值最大，为32.98 kPa，且抗剪强度增加值随土层深度增加而降低；3）根-土复合体抗剪强度相对于素土抗剪强度的增加值与根系密度指标值呈对数函数关系，随根系含量增加而升高。     

冻融循环下红色砒砂岩水泥土力学性能试验研究

为实现砒砂岩作为一种自然资源的潜在利用价值,提高砒砂岩有效利用,将鄂尔多斯市准格尔旗的红色砒砂岩加入不同掺量水泥制成砒砂岩水泥土,进行不同围压、不同冻融循环次数条件下的不固结不排水三轴试验,得到了砒砂岩水泥土的各力学参数的变化规律,并通过超景深三维显微镜对砒砂岩水泥土的细观结构进行观测.结果表明:砒砂岩水泥土的应力-应变曲线呈应变软化趋势,随水泥掺量的增加其黏聚力和内摩擦角呈线性增长的趋势.砒砂岩水泥土的内摩擦角受冻融循环影响较小,而黏聚力受冻融循环影响较大.水泥掺量越多,砒砂岩水泥土的抗冻性越好,但其脆性特征越明显.对细观结构的观测进一步验证了冻融使得低掺量水泥的固化土细观结构发生较大改变,导致内部空隙增大,而水泥土随水泥掺量的增加其内部结构更加致密,从而提高了水泥土的抗冻性.     

Influence of salinity and moisture on the threshold shear velocity of saline sand in the Qarhan Desert,Qaidam Basin of China: A wind tunnel experiment

Determination of the threshold shear velocity is essential for predicting sand transport, dust release and desertification. In this study, a wind tunnel experiment was conducted to evaluate the influence of salinity and moisture on the threshold shear velocity of saline sand. Saline sand samples (mean particle size of 164.50-186.08 μm and the total silt, clay and salt content of 0.80%-8.25%) were collected from three saline sand dunes (one barchan dune and two linear dunes) in the Qarhan Desert, Qaidam Basin of China. Original saline sand samples were placed in two experimental trays for wet and dry processing to simulate deliquescence and desiccation, respectively. Surface moisture content ranging from 0.30% to 1.90% was generated by the steam method so that the saline sand can absorb water in a saturated water vapor environment. The motion of sand particles was determined by the observers with a solid laser. The laser sheet (0.80 cm thick), which was emitted by the solid laser, horizontally covered the sand surface and was bound to the sand. Results show that the cohesion of saline sand results from a combination of salt and water. The threshold shear velocity increases exponentially with the increase in crust thickness for the linear sand dunes. There is a positive linear correlation between the original moisture content and relative threshold shear velocity. The threshold shear velocity of dewatered sand is greater than that of wet sand with the same original moisture content. Our results will provide valuable information about the sand transport of highly saline soil in the desert.

硬岩抗剪强度参数的最优化确定法

为了减小岩工程分析计算的工作量和节约研究经费,须利用有限的室内实验样本的测定值,通过对有限实验样本数据的回归分析整理,确定岩石抗剪强度参数c、φ,进而估计岩体的抗剪强度c、φ.由于试验方法、试验条件等有一定局限性,因而,岩石力学参数的试验结果具有一定的不确定性.其不确定性包含随机性和模糊性.而用传统的数理统计方法处理岩石样本值,显然是不合适的,只有通过寻求最优的数学回归分析方法,来处理相关试验结果.笔者通过对硬岩变角度剪切实验和常规三轴压缩实验的数据回归分析,得到利用最小二乘法的抛物线回归分析结果和随机-模糊回归分析结果比较符合.因而,为了优化计算结果而又避免繁琐的计算,通常可以采用最小二乘法的抛物线回归分析计算代替随机-模糊回归分析相关结果.     

云杉胶合木钢板斜螺钉连接的剪切性能研究

为准确评价斜螺钉连接钢 木节点的剪切性能,探明其受力机理,以云杉胶合木、钢板和自攻螺钉作为研究材料,测试不同荷载方向与受力情况下斜螺钉连接节点的承载性能,将试验数据与国外规范中的计算模型进行对比,提高了侧边钢板 胶合木(钢 木)斜螺钉连接节点承载性能的预测能力。结果表明:自攻螺钉与剪切面之间的角度变化对其在钢 木节点承受剪 压复合应力的承载力影响不明显,当偏转为剪 拉复合应力时,节点承载力明显增大,并在30°~45°获得最大值;剪 压复合应力时,现行EC5公式计算剪 压节点的极限承载力非常不安全;EC5的刚度预测结果在剪 压复合应力区和垂直剪切面钉入时,与试验值吻合度很高,但对剪 拉区节点的滑移模量没有预测性;将Tomasi模型应用于斜螺钉连接钢 木节点滑移模量理论计算时,在45°~90°时与试验值吻合度极高。单颗自攻螺钉的抗拔刚度计算节点滑移模量的方法极为有效,具有较高的借鉴意义。     

Study on half-scale model test for light-frame shear wall

A half-scale model of a light-frame shear wall was developed to evaluate the racking performance of a fullscale shear wall (prototype). The effect of nail size on the performance of the shear wall was also investigated using models constructed with three types of nail. Materials for the model were determined through experimental methods, which included nail-head push-through, stud-to-sheathing nail connection, and static bending tests. Materials with which the model was made to be in similarity to the prototype were three-layer 4.8-mm plywood, 39.72-mm long nails, and 1 × 2 lumber cut from 2 × 4 studs. In accordance with ASTM E 72 and ASTM E 564, racking resistance tests were conducted on 20 shear walls. The results showed that the maximum load capacities of the prototype walls could be evaluated by the model without significantly different failure modes. Tests on the effect of nail size revealed that increasing the nail head diameter may improve the performance of shear walls.Parts of this paper were presented at the International Conference on Effective Utilization of Plantation Timber (ICEUPT'99), Chi-Tou, Taiwan, May 1999; and the World Conference on Timber Engineering (WCTE2000), Whistler, Canada, July–August 2000
