The method of superposition was used to divide the solution into two parts, the part satisfying the mechanical boundary conditions and continuity conditions was first obtained by solving a system of linear equations; the other part was obtained by the separation of variables method. The present method is suitable for a multilayer piezoelectric infinite hollow cylinder consisting of arbitrary layers and subjected to arbitrary axisymmetric electric excitation. Dynamic responses of stress and electric potential are finally presented and analyzed.展开更多

The proposed method was verified experimentally and numerically by implementing the scheme on engine block. In the implementation process, the following steps were identified to be important: 1) EMD technique in order to solve the feature extraction of vibration signals; 2) Vibration measurement for the purpose of confirming the structural weak regions of engine block in experiment; 3) Finite element modeling for the purpose of determining dynamic characteristic in time region and frequency region to affirm the comparability of response character corresponding to improvement schemes; 4) Adopting a feature index oflMF for structural improvement based on EMD and wavelet analysis. The obtained results show that IMF of signal is more sensitive to response character corresponding to improvement schemes. Finally, examination of the results confirms that the proposed vibration-based feature extraction method is very robust, and focuses on the relative merits of modification and full-scale structural optimization of engine, together with the creation of new low-vibration designs.展开更多

Firstly, based on the correction of some errors in the equation of piston secondary motion, which have been employed by many authors for several years, a detailed mathematical model for the coupling problem between the dynamical and tribological behaviors in the piston-liner systems of multi-cylinder internal combustion engines is presented. Secondly, the lubrication and friction between the liner and piston in each cylinder is included applying the average flow model of the Reynolds equation. Thirdly, the vibration of each liner is computed through the finite element model of a four-cylinder engine block, by which not only the liner motions caused by the block vibration but also the local vibration and the local static deformation of each liner can be figured out and taken into account. Through theoretical analysis and computation, some conclusions can be drawn as: 1) Both the liner vibration and piston motion are different for different cylinder in a multi-cylinder internal combustion engine, and hence different piston-liner systems will have different tribological behaviors. 2) Different liners have coincident dynamic response on the whole, especially for the lower frequency components. However, differences still exist among the vibrations of different liners, and these differences are mainly owing to the higher frequency components. 3) The impacts of liner vibrations on the tribological behaviors in piston-liner systems are primarily ascribed to its higher frequency components.展开更多

Firstly, a MBDS (multi-body dynamic simulation) of the internal combustion engine has been carried out, at a defined operating condition, in order to determine the excitation force of the powertrain exciting the cylinder block. In this way, the dynamics of the engine powertrain have been described taking into account both the effects of the gas forces of the combustion process and the inertia forces of the moving parts. Afterwards, the cylinder block excitation forces have been used to evaluate the engine block vibrations and to predict the external noise radiated with both the well-known ATV (acoustic transfer vectors) and MATV (modal acoustic transfer vectors) methodologies at a distance of 1 m from the engine, according to the standard ISO 3744. The dynamics of the engine powertrain and its vibro-acoustic behaviour have been described using LMS (learning management system) Engineering Innovation Virtual.Lab tools.展开更多
