Simulation Results

In Part 1, electrodynamic drivers are designed for a single, linearized load. In this part, a digital computer simulation program is described. This program more accurately models the nonlinearities of the actual gas load, and can be used to check the performance of candidate designs over the expected range of loading conditions. Two selected designs, a laboratory research compressor and a commercial electrodynamic compressor, were discussed in Part 1. Simulation results for the former are discussed and compared to experimentally measured data. For the latter, a comparable design, also presented in Part 1, is simulated and the results are discussed.

Abstract The authors have been developed a computer simulation program of gear shaving. In the present paper, a new cutting model of shaving process is proposed so as to incorporate an effect of a cutting performance of shaving cutter into the simulation program. In this cutting model, it is assumed that a tooth flank material of work gear can be removed only when a depth of cut of a cutting edge exceeds a certain criterion. It is also assumed that the criterion have no definite value but has the nominal distribution over the tooth surface. The mean value of the distribution can define a characteristic of cutting performance of shaving cutter. The small mean value means that even small depth of cut can cause a stock removal; i.e. a good cutter performance. The computer simulations on gear shaving are performed to reveal the effect of the cutter performance on shaved tooth form. Under the conditions used in these simulations, the pressure angle error on the shaved tooth profile becomes remarkable as the cutter performance becomes worse. Thus, the developed computer simulation program of gear shaving has a reliability on the prediction of shaved tooth form. It will be useful for design of shaving cutter, judgement of tool life, and so on.

Computer Simulation Program

In the modular construction of ships, significant productivity losses can occur during the erection stage, when the modules, or hull blocks, are joined together. Frequently, adjacent blocks do not fit together properly, and rework of one or both of the mating block interfaces is necessary to correct the problem. The specific cause of rework is the variation of plate edges at the block interface, which is itself a cumulative product of numerous manufacturing variations inherent in hull block construction. Variation in manufacturing is unavoidable, but not uncontrollable. The application of accuracy control techniques in shipbuilding has proven that a statistical analysis of variation makes possible an accurate prediction of its effects. This paper presents an examination of block interface variation, and the subsequent development of a computer simulation method of predicting rework levels on those blocks. The complex interaction of all the edges' random variations at the block interface gives rise to a unique rework probability distribution. This probability distribution is evaluated by means of the computer simulation program, which provides estimates of the average rework anticipated, the shape of the probability curve, and other parameters. Similar predictions are also available for cost and labor of required rework. In addition to predicting rework levels, the simulation program can be a useful tool for reducing those levels.
