    Capturing high-quality welding images and extracting deviation information are two important steps of welding deviation detection.In this paper,on the basis of imaging characteristics analysis in the process CO2 arc welding,real-time welding images were acquired clearly and steadily by using a wide dynamic range camera.Then,according to the characteristics of welding images,an improved Canny algorithm was developed to detect groove edges,and both Hough transform and prior knowledge were used to connect these edges.Moreover,in order to fit out the edge of weld pool,a differential evolution ellipse detection algorithm on the basis of condition restric- tion was proposed,with which welding deviation can be successfully calculated.Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm possesses strong robustness and high precision,so that it meets the requirements of seam track- ing and welding automation well.

    Although CORDIC algorithm has been widely used in various transcendental functions,its general itera- tive algorithm is inefficient in using FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) to solve the exponential function in a wide-range domain.In order to solve this problem,an FPGA fixed-point technology,which expands the conver- gence region and optimizes the iteration structure to implement CORDIC algorithm solver,is designed.In the inves- tigation,firstly,range compression method is employed to realize the convergence domain expansion of exponential function achieved by CORDIC algorithm.Secondly,the iteration structure of CORDIC algorithm is optimized.Then,the exponential function achieved by CORDIC algorithm is analyzed in a simulative way and implemented in FPGA.Finally,a 15-grade pipeline structure as well as a hyperbolic method is used to implement the expansion in convergence domain of CORDIC algorithm.Simulated and experimental results show that,in comparison with the general CORDIC algorithm,the proposed algorithm saves about 1/3 hardware resources,uses only two DSP multi- plexer units,expands the convergence domain from[-1.1182,1.1182]to[-6,6],and achieves a relative er- ror low to 10-3 .

    In the process of rock cutting using hard-rock tunnel boring machines,vibration loads may occur,and alternating stress may load on hydraulic rubber hose under the action of vibration load and internal pressure.When the alternating stress exceeds the fatigue limit,fatigue damage may occur.In this paper,on the basis of composite material mechanics and materials mechanics,a mathematical model of hydraulic rubber hose is established.Then,the effects of vibration parameters,oil pressure and hose structure parameters on the life of hose are analyzed through simulation and experiments.The results show that (1) when the excitation frequency of vibration load is close to hose's natural frequency,the hose life reaches the minimum; (2) with the increase of vibration load ampli- tude,the life of rubber hose decreases; (3) at a middle-lower pressure,the change of oil pressure has little effect on the stress loaded on steel wire; and (4) bigger bending radius of hose may result in lower stress.

    In order to rapidly solve the dynamic response of circulating flow rate of torque converter,a transfer functions representation method for dynamic circulating flow rate is proposed.In this method,through the derivation on the basis of one-dimension flow theory,a torque converter with certain structure is selected as the research ob- ject,and dynamic circulating flow rate is regarded as a first-order linear system's response with the input of static circulating flow rate.Then,the transfer function of dynamic circulating flow system is constructed according to the static and dynamic CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) simulation data under simple working conditions in torque converter's common working range.Simulated results show that the proposed method helps achieve a fit goodness of 0.987 for dynamic circulating flow rate prediction in common working range,and a fit goodness of 0.95 for input and output shafts' dynamic torque prediction; and that,in comparison with CFD simulation,the proposed method greatly increases the calculation speed only with a slight decrease in calculation accuracy,so that it is effec- tive in rapidly solving the dynamic response of torque converter.

    In this paper,the conditions for the jamming-free peg-in-hole assembly of holes with coarse internal sur- face are analyzed,and a magnetic force-based active-passive compliant device is designed to avoid the jamming.In this device,a passive compliant section connected by repulsive magnetic force is used to separate the shaft from the end-effector in the process of assembly.Thus,both resistance and resistance moment significantly decrease.After that,a rotational push-pull active compliant section connected by magnetic force is employed to generate a torque for the escape of shaft from jamming point.In addition,a three-axis motion platform with open-structured motion control card and a one-dimension force sensor are deployed to conduct experiments for four pairs of shaft and hole with different diameters.The results indicate that the designed active-passive compliant device can effectively avoid the jamming in the assembly process of holes with coarse internal surface,and that the assembly can be finished within 10 seconds,which means that the proposed device and the corresponding damping control algorithm are both effective.

    The nonlinear stability of Kiewitt-Lamella single-layer reticulated shells is analyzed by means of random imperfection modal method,and the stable ultimate load of the reticulated shell structure,which is affected by both the spatial sample number of random defect and the rise-span ratio,is investigated.Then,a comparison of calcu- lated results is made between random imperfection modal method and consistent imperfection modal method.The results show that (1) the spatial sample number of random defect should be not less than 90 for the stability analy- sis of structures via statistical method; (2) for the reticulated shell structure with large rise-span ratio,the probabi- listic reliability to calculate the critical load via consistent imperfection modal method is rather low,so that it is nece- ssary to verify the critical load with the help of random imperfection modal method; and (3) when the rise-span ra- tio of a single-layer reticulated shell is less than 1/6,the calculated stable bearing capacities obtained by the two a- bove-mentioned initial defect distribution methods are nearly equal.

    Firstly,the failure mode and adhesive mechanism of interface between different layers of ballastless track were analyzed by simplifying temperature load into the shear load of track slab.Then,on the basis of constructive cohesive force model and experimental bond strength parameters of cement asphalt mortar,an interface finite ele- ment model of ballastless track structure was established.Finally,the evolution rules of interfacial stress,interfa- cial bond bearing capacity,interfacial relative displacement and interfacial cracks under the action of shear load were investigated.The results show that (1) both interfacial shear stress and normal stress distribute unevenly and achieve their maximums at the ends of track slab,and interfacial normal stress may result in a tension of track slab at two ends of the slab; (2) under the action of shear load,the interface fails gradually as a result of the interfacial shear stress exceeding the maximum bond strength,and the maximum interfacial bond bearing capacity is 264.8kN; (3) the longitudinal displacement of track slab relatively to mortar-filling layer increases continuously with the shear load and then longitudinal cracks appear; and (4) the relative vertical opening displacement decreases after the in- terface has been cracked,followed with an interfacial shear fracture which may result in the delamination of ballast- less tracks.

    Firstly,an accelerated corrosion test was conducted with 6 groups of concrete cylinder specimens to simu- late the sulfuric acid corrosion environment with interrupted corrosion layer.Secondly,the corrosion depths of cor- roded specimens were measured by using a three-dimension (3D) laser scanner and a vernier caliper,respectively.Then,an objective function was proposed with the help of least square cylinder,and the 3D point coordinates ob- tained with 3D laser scanner were treated with Matlab to calculate the corrosion depth of each point on cylinder sur- face.Finally,the corrosion depth was statistically analyzed.The results indicate that the corrosion depth can be ex- pressed as a Gaussian random process with normal distribution; and that both mean value and standard deviation of the depth approximately increase with corrosion time in a linear way.Moreover,it is found that the mean corrosion depth measured with vernier caliper is slightly less than that obtained with 3D laser scanner,while the correspond- ing standard deviation measured with vernier caliper is obviously less than that obtained with 3D laser scanner.As the amount of data obtained with 3D laser scanner is tens of thousands of times as such as that obtained with vernier caliper,it is more reliable to calculate corrosion depth with Gaussian random process model.

    The measured value of pinna rotation angle depends on subject's original head position,and the corre- sponding measurement methods of pinna rotation angle may affect the distribution of individual head-related transfer functions (HRTFs) in various elevations.In this paper,both face-based vertical reference plane and Frankfurt refe- rence plane are used to measure and compare the pinna rotation angles of 60 human subjects,and a mean diffe- rence of about 5° is obtained.Then,in order to discover the effect of pinna rotation angle on the spatial distribution of individual HRTFs,the left pinna is rotated on the same ellipsoidal head model with an interval of 5°,and three calculation models respectively corresponding to the pinna rotation angles of 16°,11° and 6° are obtained.Moreo- ver,the HRTFs of the three coupling models are calculated and analyzed by means of the fast multi-pole boundary element method (FM-BEM). The results show that the frequency discrepancy of the pinna notches at high frequen- cies reaches about 1.0kHz,and that the magnitude difference even reaches about 10dB in some directions.In ad- dition,from the individual HRTFs customized via spatial coordinate transformation,it is found that the frequencies and magnitude of pinna notches of the customized HRTFs are similar to those of directly-calculated HRTFs,which means that the proposed individual customization method for individual pinna rotation angle is effective.
