3 Ion Thruster Grid Lifetime Assessment Based on Its Structural Failure

Authors: Juan Li, Jiawen Qiu, Yuchuan Chu, Tianping Zhang, Wei Meng, Yanhui Jia, Xiaohui Liu

Abstract:

This article developed an ion thruster optic system sputter erosion depth numerical 3D model by IFE-PIC (Immersed Finite Element-Particle-in-Cell) and Mont Carlo method, and calculated the downstream surface sputter erosion rate of accelerator grid; Compared with LIPS-200 life test data, the results of the numerical model are in reasonable agreement with the measured data. Finally, we predict the lifetime of the 20cm diameter ion thruster via the erosion data obtained with the model. The ultimate result demonstrates that under normal operating condition, the erosion rate of the grooves wears on the downstream surface of the accelerator grid is 34.6μm⁄1000h, which means the conservative lifetime until structural failure occurring on the accelerator grid is 11500 hours.

2 Nonlinear Dynamics of a Rock Drill Based on a Buffer System-Rock Model

Authors: Siyuan Chang, Wei Ma, Min Ye, Yelin Li, Yuchuan Ma, Jiale Zhang

Abstract:

In response to the instability issues occurring during the drilling operation of rock drilling machines, this paper studies the principle of hydraulic rock drilling machines, considering the impact of the buffer system on the shock characteristics, and establishes a four-degree-of-freedom physical model. The viscous and non-viscous modes are analyzed, and the periodic trajectories of the non-smooth dynamical system's mathematical model are segmented. Using the pseudo-arclength continuation method and Floquet theory, the buffer pressure is treated as a control parameter to study the dynamic characteristics of multi-attractor coexistence in the buffer system. Multistable attractors cause the rock drill to switch between multiple steady states, and external disturbances allow the system to jump from one steady state to another. Simulation shows that in order for the rock drill to operate on a period-1 trajectory, d1 should be selected between 0.2 and 0.225. The correctness of the drilling dynamics model is validated through laser testing.

1 Neighborhood Graph-Optimized Preserving Discriminant Analysis for Image Feature Extraction

Authors: Xiaoheng Tan, Xianfang Li, Tan Guo, Yuchuan Liu, Zhijun Yang, Hongye Li, Kai Fu, Yufang Wu, Heling Gong

Abstract:

The image data collected in reality often have high dimensions, and it contains noise and redundant information. Therefore, it is necessary to extract the compact feature expression of the original perceived image. In this process, effective use of prior knowledge such as data structure distribution and sample label is the key to enhance image feature discrimination and robustness. Based on the above considerations, this paper proposes a local preserving discriminant feature learning model based on graph optimization. The model has the following characteristics: (1) Locality preserving constraint can effectively excavate and preserve the local structural relationship between data. (2) The flexibility of graph learning can be improved by constructing a new local geometric structure graph using label information and the nearest neighbor threshold. (3) The L₂,₁ norm is used to redefine LDA, and the diagonal matrix is introduced as the scale factor of LDA, and the samples are selected, which improves the robustness of feature learning. The validity and robustness of the proposed algorithm are verified by experiments in two public image datasets.

Keywords: feature extraction, graph optimization local preserving projection, linear discriminant analysis, L₂, ₁ norm
