Multi-scale Shell Vibration Frequency Spectrum Analysis and Modeling Approach of Ball Mill LIU Zhuo， CHAI Tian-you， TANG Jian 2015, 36 (3):  305-308.  DOI: 10.12068/j.issn.1005-3026.2015.03.001 Abstract ( 643 )   HTML   PDF (727KB) ( 1303 )   Single-scale shell vibration frequency spectrum cannot reflect grinding mechanism of ball mill and analyze the composition of shell vibration signal. The empirical mode decomposition (EMD) based on soft sensor methods in present literature have poor prediction accuracy. Aiming at these problems， a new multi-scale shell vibration frequency spectrum analysis and modeling approach based on the partial least squares (PLS) algorithm was proposed. Firstly， the shell vibration acceleration signal was decomposed into different time-scale intrinsic mode functions (IMF) adaptively. Then， multi-scale frequency spectrum was obtained by using fast Fourier transform to different IMFs. Finally， different scale frequency spectrum was analyzed and selected by the latent variables contribution of the PLS algorithm. In addition， mill load parameters’ soft sensor model was constructed by fusing these selected multi-scale frequency spectrum. Simulation results based on experimental data of the laboratory ball mill validate the effectiveness of the proposed method. References | Related Articles | Metrics

Elastic modulus is almost invariable. Discrete displacement bursts and jumping steps in load-depth curves are associated with the loading-rate. The slower the loading rate is， the more obvious the curve steps appear. The discrete displacement burst starts from a single shear band. In a high strain rate， jumping steps do not appear on curves.

Behavior of Bottom Injection Bubbles in Liquid Under Elevated Pressures ZHONG Liang-cai， ZHOU Hang， WANG Long， ZHANG Ku 2015, 36 (3):  388-392.  DOI: 10.12068/j.issn.1005-3026.2015.03.019 Abstract ( 634 )   HTML   PDF (459KB) ( 1150 )   The influences of vessel pressure， nozzle diameter and gas flow rate on bubble’s behavior， diameter and rising velocity were investigated through physical experiment. The results showed that the bubbles from larger diameter nozzle show flat shape and their shapes change obviously during their up-rising process under atmosphere pressure， while the bubbles show oval-shaped and their shapes are stable in up-rising process under larger pressure. Gas flow rate has small effect on the bubble’s diameter with large diameter nozzle under atmosphere pressure， but it can obviously increase the bubble’s diameter and pressure has little influence on bubble’s diameter from small nozzle. With low gas flow rate and high pressure， the small bubbles can be obtained from the larger diameter nozzle. The difference of bubble’s diameter with different flow rates in injecting gas with the large nozzle is small under 0.1~0.2MPa pressure， while the difference becomes large when the pressure is increased to 0.3~0.4MPa. Rising velocity of bubbles decreases with increase in pressure and the influence of pressure on bubble’s rising velocity is more obvious at large gas flow rate. The bubbles from the large nozzles usually have higher rising velocity. Under atmosphere， the gas flow rate has important effect on rising velocity of bubbles， but under pressure up to 0.4MPa， the nozzle diameter has more important effect on their velocity.

The effects of oxygen enrichment rate， blast temperature， blast humidity and coal rate on T○f were analyzed and compared among the traditional model， the original modified model and the present parameters model under different blast respectively. The results showed that compared with the traditional model and original modified model， the calculation value of T○f using the present model under different blast parameters tends to be flatter and the thermal state of hearth is relatively stable. Actually， according to two kinds of smooth operation conditions existing in the practical production which are “high oxygen enrichment rate， low coal injection rate” and “low oxygen enrichment rate， high coal injection rate” with suitable Tf， it was verified that this model could appropriately reflect the actual thermal state of hearth in blast furnace(BF).

Using molecular dynamics simulation， the difference of tribological properties between nanofluid and base fluid was studied when the lubricant film was confined to idealized atomistic surfaces. The interaction between nanoparticles and base fluid was studied. The results indicate that:under high load， liquid-solid transition takes place for both base fluid and nanofluid; the critical pressure of nanofluid phase transition is higher than that of the base fluid. After phase transition， nanofluid shows excellent friction-reducing properties. Nanoparticles can also increase the load-carrying capacity effectively and the enhancement effect is better after phase transition. The mechanisms responsible for the nanofluids friction properties are explained in detail. References | Related Articles | Metrics

By improving the traditional Fourier heat transfer model， a three-dimensional heat transfer model based on the actual cross-sectional shape of the ventilation airway was formulated. The momentum related boundary conditions which can reflex the velocity and quantity changes for different airway profiles also was specified， which associated with the time parameter to reveal the formation of heat conduction and exchange inside the strata and between the rock and airflow， and the heat transfer equation between wet wall and airflow was given at the meantime. On this basis， a large domestic ventilation system for deep subsurface metal mine was built， in order to obtain the trend and specialty of temperature， humidity， heat and some other parameters. This study lays the foundation for the deep subsurface mine to carry out climate regulation and control. References | Related Articles | Metrics

Simulation of Critical Hydraulic Gradient in No Cohesive Soil with PFC3D WU Feng-yuan， LIANG Li， FAN Yun-yun， WANG Nan 2015, 36 (3):  428-432.  DOI: 10.12068/j.issn.1005-3026.2015.03.028 Abstract ( 977 )   HTML   PDF (764KB) ( 1356 )   In order to calculate the critical hydraulic gradient of no cohesive soil during water seepage， numerical simulation on seepage experiments was conducted with PFC3D. The numerical results agree well with the seepage experiments， thus verifying the effectiveness of PFC3D model. Then， the damage during seepage of no cohesive soils with different particle friction coefficient was numerically simulated. The results showed that critical hydraulic gradient of no cohesive soil during water seepage increases with the raising of particle friction coefficient. The PFC3D results agree well with the empirical results， and the effectiveness of calculation in seepage critical hydraulic gradient is validated. Compared to empirical formula， PFC3D can be available for analyzing the seepage under complex engineering and geological conditions. It can provide a scientific reference and basis for seepage calculation under complex conditions. References | Related Articles | Metrics

Minimum Supporting Pressure of Shield Tunnel Face in Sandy Grand LIU Yu， TANG Chun-an， XIE Xin 2015, 36 (3):  433-436.  DOI: 10.12068/j.issn.1005-3026.2015.03.029 Abstract ( 807 )   HTML   PDF (526KB) ( 997 )   In the procedure of shield construction， the inappropriate controlling of support pressure on the tunnel face may cause risk of accident， such as the nearby pipeline rupture and the incline of existing buildings. The influence of different buried depth ratio (C/D)， internal friction angle on the instability mode of excavation face and the limit minimum support pressure was investigated on the basis of the Flac3D numerical model and limit equilibrium model. According to the comparison between the two different analysis methods， there is obvious difference between the support pressure predicted by the limit equilibrium model and the actual support pressure， which is caused by the fact that the limit equilibrium model cannot reflect the procedure that the coefficient of lateral pressure changes with the displacement of tunnel face and dynamic depth change. The research may provide great theoretical evidence to the engineering practice in the solid stratum. References | Related Articles | Metrics

Analysis of Biomass Gasification Poisoning Accident Based on BN-bow-tie YAN Fang， XU Kai-li， YAO Xi-wen， WANG Yan-tong 2015, 36 (3):  437-441.  DOI: 10.12068/j.issn.1005-3026.2015.03.030 Abstract ( 881 )   HTML   PDF (701KB) ( 786 )   Occurrence probability of biomass gasification poisoning accident is 1.20298×10-4/d by transforming fault tree to Bayesian network. The two-way derived and diagnosed function of Bayesian network was used to calculate posterior probabilities and worth of each basic event. Then analyze the weak point which led to accident in the system. The reason and the consequence of failure were analyzed combining the bow-tie. Then prevention measures were got to prevent weak point from failure and control measures were adopted after it had turned to be failure. Thereby reduce the probability of accident. After adopting measures to weak point valve leakage it can reduce poisoning accident probability by 20.92%. The aim is to reduce accident probabilities. References | Related Articles | Metrics

New Method for Total Factor Productivity Analysis: Fre-Primont Index HUANG Yi， SUN Guang-sheng， HUANG Jin-zhi 2015, 36 (3):  448-452.  DOI: 10.12068/j.issn.1005-3026.2015.03.032 Abstract ( 770 )   HTML   PDF (392KB) ( 859 )   To overcome the shortcomings of Malmquist index， Fre-Primont index was introduced on the basis of the total factor productivity definition. The properties and decomposition of total factor productivity were also discussed. Firstly， Fre-Primont index was developed with distance function as the aggregate function， and this index also exhibited multiplicative completeness and satisfied transitivity test. Then， with the economic connotations of related efficiencies， Fre-Primont index was decomposed into the product of technology progress， technical efficiency change， scale efficiency change and residual mix efficiency change completely. Finally， the total factor productivities of 29 provinces in China from 2001 to 2010 were studied empirically by using Fre-Primont index. References | Related Articles | Metrics

The basic topological index of network was calculated.And then the correlation between these indexes and stock market volatility was analyzed. The results show that there is a negative correlation between average path length of network and market volatility when market volatility is higher， distances between nodes are shorter， network contraction is closer; and there is a negative correlation between mean occupation layer and market volatility when the market volatility increases， nodes in the network close to the center node; and there is a positive correlation between the maximum number of links and market volatility when market volatility is higher， connection between the network nodes is strengthener，the co-movement tendency is reinforced. The volatility changing in the stock market is forecasted by analyzing the changing law of topological index of stock network. References | Related Articles | Metrics
