The nozzle flapper pressure servo valve is a kind of high-precision hydraulic component that can be widely used in the aircraft brake system. In actual service, the dynamic erosion wear behavior will occur at the pilot stage because of the gradual contamination of oil and the variable distance between nozzle and flapper. For this purpose, the paper proposes a dynamic erosion wear characteristics analysis and service life prediction method in which firstly the structural feature and working principle of the nozzle flapper pressure valve are analyzed using the brake cavity as the load blind cavity. Secondly, the dynamics simulation model and the performance experiment system of the pressure valve are separately constructed, and then the validation of the constructed model is conducted by contrasting the results between simulation and experiment. Finally, the mathematical models of the degradation process induced by the dynamic erosion wear are established, and then the dynamic erosion wear characteristics under dynamic structural distance and contamination conditions are analyzed, which are combined with the failure threshold value determined by the dynamics simulation to finish the service life prediction of the nozzle flapper pressure servo valve.

This paper provides a critical review of the degradation, durability and service life prediction (SLP) of polymeric building envelope materials (BEMs), namely, claddings, air/vapour barriers, insulations, sealants, gaskets and fenestration. The rate of material deterioration and properties determine the usefulness of a product; therefore, knowledge of the significant degradation mechanisms in play for BEMs is key to the design of proper SLP methods. SLP seeks to estimate the life expectancy of a material/component exposed to in-service conditions. This topic is especially important with respect to the potential impacts of climate change. The surrounding environment of a building dictates the degradation mechanisms in play, and as climate change progresses, material aging conditions become more unpredictable. This can result in unexpected changes and/or damages to BEMs, and shorter than expected SL. The development of more comprehensive SLP methods is economically and environmentally sound, and it will provide more confidence, comfort and safety to all building users. The goal of this paper is to review the existing literature in order to identify the knowledge gaps and provide suggestions to address these gaps in light of the rapidly evolving climate.
