Vibration of manufacturing machine parts can be reduced by applying CFRP to precision machines. Recently, the use of 3D printers in manufacturing has increased. However, there are few studies on the vibration characteristics of 3D printed composite materials. The objective of this study is to analyze the vibration reduction effect of a 3D printed composite material used as a CFRP chuck adapter. The existing chuck adapter is made of steel. In this study, the vibration values for three types of CFRP, steel, and CFRP with steel chuck adapters are compared. The products were rotated at 10, 500, and 1000 rpm, and the vibration velocity and displacement were calculated as an average value after repeating each measurement 5 times. Vibration velocity was improved by up to 64% and displacement by up to 31.1%. These results can be usefully applied to other mechanical parts requiring vibration damping.
To solve the problems of congestion and accident risk when multiple vehicles merge into the merging area of a freeway, a platoon split collaborative merging (PSCM) method was proposed for an on-ramp connected and automated vehicle (CAV) platoon under a mixed traffic environment composed of human-driving vehicles (HDV) and CAVs. The PSCM method mainly includes two parts: merging vehicle motion control and merging effect evaluation. Firstly, the collision avoidance constraints of merging vehicles were analyzed, and on this basis, a following–merging motion rule was proposed. Then, considering the feasibility of and constraints on the stability of traffic flow during merging, a performance measurement function with safety and merging efficiency as optimization objectives was established to screen for the optimal splitting strategy. Simulation experiments under traffic demand of 1500 pcu/h/lane and CAV ratios of 30%, 50%, and 70% were conducted respectively. It was shown that under the 50% CAV ratio, the average travel time of the on-ramp CAV platoon was reduced by 50.7% under the optimal platoon split strategy compared with the no-split control strategy. In addition, the average travel time of main road vehicles was reduced by 27.9%. Thus, the proposed PSCM method is suitable for the merging control of on-ramp CAV platoons under the condition of heavy main road traffic demand.
Changes in loading position have a significant impact on the stress field of each vulnerable area of an orthotropic steel deck (OSD). The arc opening area of the diaphragm and the connecting area between the U-rib and the diaphragm under the moving load are prone to fatigue cracking. By comparing the stress responses under different methods, the hot spot stress (HSS) method is used as the main stress extraction method in fatigue performance evaluation. The control stress of fatigue cracking was analyzed by comparing the direction of the principal stress field with the crack direction in this experiment. According to the stress amplitude deviation under the biaxial stress state, a set of methods for evaluating the effects of in-plane biaxial fatigue was developed. An improved luffing fatigue assessment S–N curve was applied to analyze the fatigue life of the diaphragm’s arc opening area. The results show that when the moving load is exactly above the connection of the deck and the web of the U-rib on one side, it is in the most unfavorable position in the transverse direction, and the diaphragm is mainly under the in-plane stress state. The longitudinal range of the stress influence line of the arc opening is approximately twice the diaphragm spacing. Two to three stress cycles are caused by one fatigue load. Fatigue crack control stress is the principal stress tangential to the arc opening’s edge in this area. The normal direction of the principal stress in the model test is roughly consistent with the crack initiation direction. The variation in the stress amplitude deviation in this area is caused by changes in the action position of the moving load. When the moving load is at a certain distance from the involved diaphragm, it is reduced to zero, implying that the in-plane fatigue effect is the greatest in this area.
The increase in traffic in cities world-wide has led to a need for better traffic management systems in urban networks. Despite the advances in technology for traffic data collection, the collected data are still suffering from significant issues, such as missing data, hence the need for data imputation methods. This paper explores the spatiotemporal probabilistic principal component analysis (PPCA) based data imputation method that utilizes traffic flow data from vehicle detectors and focuses specifically on detectors in urban networks as opposed to a freeway setting. In the urban context, detectors are in a complex network, separated by traffic lights, measuring different flow directions on different types of roads. Different constructions of a spatial network are compared, from a single detector to a neighborhood and a city-wide network. Experiments are conducted on data from 285 detectors in the urban network of Surabaya, Indonesia, with a case study on the Diponegoro neighborhood. Methods are tested against both point-wise and interval-wise missing data in various scenarios. Results show that a spatial network adds robustness to the system and the choice of the subset has an impact on the imputation error. Compared to a single detector, spatiotemporal PPCA is better suited for interval-wise errors and more robust against outliers and extreme missing data. Even in the case where an entire day of data is missing, the method is still able to impute data accurately relying on other vehicle detectors in the network.
Silicon-based single photon avalanche diode (Si-SPAD) have found wide applications in various fields, including fluorescence detection and laser radar. However, noise is a key parameter for these areas. For instance, thermal noise, stochastic noise, and other interference factors can significantly reduce the quantum efficiency of devices. Therefore, carrying out device-level noise signal simulations is crucial for the design of high-performance SPAD. This paper implements a Simple Monte Carlo (SMC) model for Random Telegraph Signal (RTS) noise. The SMC modeling is applied to predict the avalanche breakdown voltage of the device. Additionally, the RTS noise characteristics of the SPAD device are tested and analyzed. The discrepancy between simulation and experimental results falls within a 5% margin.
