Study on the Motion Law of Logarithmic Spiral Type Cam Mechanism by Yin Libin, Fu Lihua, Zhao Yan, Song Hua, Gao Jingjun

“…The solid models of the logarithmic spiral cam mechanism and common cam mechanism are established by using SolidWorks,and the kinematics simulation is carried out.Then,by using the software of ANSYS / LS-DYNA,the dynamics analysis of the two kinds of cam mechanism is carried out,and the variation situation of the maximum stress of cam mechanism and the follower changing with time is obtained.By contrast analysis between the dynamics simulation and the kinematical simulation of logarithmic spiral cam mechanism and common cam mechanism,find that the logarithmic spiral cam mechanism drive is more steady during the operation,and the force variation and the average stress of cam and follower are lower,which indicates that the logarithmic spiral cam mechanism is superior to common cam mechanism,and possessed of popularization and application value.…”

CFD algorithm for moving boundary problems of isothermal drying and shrinkage: Case of prunes by Lentzou Diamanto, Templalexis Charalampos, Boudouvis Andreas G., Karathanos Vaios, Xanthopoulos Georgios

“…The surface resistance is accounted as the sum of the peel and the diffusive boundary layer resistances, the latter being negligible compared to the former. The estimated peel resistance decreased by 86% as the drying temperature increased from 45 °C to 65 °C and by 44% as the drying temperature increases from 55 °C to 65 °C. …”

Study on Corrosion Characterization and Mechanism of the Monitoring Tubing under Air-Foam Flooding Injection Well by NING Chuang, ZHANG Liwei, TONG Zhangbing, JING Zhengzheng, YIN Zhifu

“…Through long-term corrosion monitoring of the air-foam flooding injection well string on site， the corrosion characteristics of the inner and outer walls of J55 tubing at the upper and lower well sections in the air-foam flooding test area injection well environment were studied.The morphologies of the corrosion products were characterized by SEM and 3D confocal microscopy， and the compositions of the corrosion products were analyzed by energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis.Furthermore， the corrosion mechanism was explored and discussed.The results showed that J55 oil pipe had severe overall corrosion and varying degrees of localized corrosion， with more severe corrosion in the downhole section.The corrosion products on the inner and outer surfaces of different sections of the tubing were different， mainly including Fe0.925O，FeSx，Fe3O4 and FeO(OH).The structure of carbon steel tubing might form cracks and be transgranular micro-cracking during the service of air-foam flooding.…”

Predicting Geostationary 40–150 keV Electron Flux Using ARMAX (an Autoregressive Moving Average Transfer Function), RNN (a Recurrent Neural Network), and Logistic Regression: A Com... by L. E. Simms, N. Yu. Ganushkina, M. Van derKamp, M. Balikhin, M. W. Liemohn

“…Abstract We screen several algorithms for their ability to produce good predictive models of hourly 40–150 keV electron flux at geostationary orbit (data from GOES‐13) using solar wind, Interplanetary Magnetic Field, and geomagnetic index parameters that would be available for real time forecasting. Value‐predicting models developed using ARMAX (autoregressive moving average transfer function), RNN (recurrent neural network), or stepwise‐reduced regression produced roughly similar results. …”
