General Design and Layout of Datengxia Hydropower Station by ZHANG Xiao, YIN Shaoqing

“…Datengxia hydropower station is a riverbed power station with a low water head and large flow.It is installed with eight 200 MW axial-flow paddle turbine generating sets,with an average annual generating capacity of 6.055 billion kW·h,which makes early and remarkable economic benefits of generating sets possible.The buildings in the station mainly include the main engine room,installation room,outgoing line yard,sand retaining barrier,and drift retaining row.In combination with the construction diversion,the station adopts a left-and-right bank layout scheme and employs measures to optimize the prestressed reinforced concrete spiral case and layers and blocks in structural design,so as to minimize the project's total construction period and ensure the earliest power generation of the first set.The layout scheme and the optimal design of the station can provide a reference for other similar engineering designs.…”

SIMULATION AND EXPERIMENTAL STUDY ON THE STATIC STIFFNESS OF HIGH SPEED MOTORIZED SPINDLE by CUI FangYuan, LI Yan, YU JiaYi, TANG AoFei, LI PengYang, HAN LiLi

“…The static stiffness of the spindle is an important index to evaluate the static characteristics of the motorized spindle,which is essential to ensure the machining accuracy of precision CNC machine tools.Based on the calculation formulas of cutting force under typical conditions and those of radial stiffness of angular contact ball bearing,the axial deformation in front of the spindle,as well as the static stiffness in the specified condition,were obtained through the 3D finite element model of rotor-bearing system.The static stiffness test was performed on the experimental platform.By comparing the simulation results and the experimental results,the validity of the finite element model was indirectly verified.Based on the reliable finite element model,the variations of the static stiffness of the spindle with the preloads of the front and rear bearing groups were gained.…”

Numerical modelling of ductile damage mechanics coupled with an unconventional plasticity model by R. Fincato, S. Tsutsumi

“…Modelling this parameter is important in structure and component design because it can be used to estimate material failure under a generic multi-axial stress state. Previous work has attempted to provide accurate descriptions of the mechanical property degradation resulting from the formation, growth, and coalescence of microvoids in the medium. …”

Load Carrying Capacity Analysis of Helicoidal Surface Thrust Bearing by Zhang Wentao, Zhang Songlin, Cheng Baixin

“…The results show that with the increase of the pitch and oil film thickness,the maximum temperature of the oil film is decreased. The axial load capacity decreases with the increase of the oil film thickness.There is an ratio of pad height to the minimum film thickness which maximizes the load capacity when the minimum thickness of oil film and angular speed are constant,the best ratio of pad height to the minimum film thickness is 1. 4. …”
