In recent years, the noise reduction research of the carpet tufting machine has been developing slowly. The research gaps of the existing work mainly focus on the noise source identification for the carpet tufting machine. MEEMD (EEMD) has been proposed to apply to source recognition on textile machinery. Due to the uniqueness of the MEEMD/EEMD, it is difficult to set suitable white noise control parameters. MEEMD (EEMD) has only been tested via simulation; however, it has not been mathematically proven or evaluated. This leads to inevitable flaws in the research conclusions, and even some conclusions are wrong. The contribution of this paper is twofold. First, in order to recognize the noise source of a carpet tufting machine, a method based on complete ensemble empirical mode decomposition (CEEMDAN) and Akaike information criterion (AIC) is proposed. The CEEMDAN-AIC method is applied to measure the noise signal of a carpet tufting machine and analyzed every single effective component selected. Noise source identification is realized by combining the vibration signal characteristics of the main parts of the carpet tufting machine. CEEMDAN is used to decompose the measured noise signal of the carpet tufting machine into a finite number of intrinsic mode functions (IMFs). Then, singular value decomposition (SVD) is performed on the covariance matrix of the IMF matrix to obtain the eigenvalue. Next, the number of effective IMFs is estimated based on the AIC criterion, and the effective IMFs are selected by combining the energy characteristic index and the Pearson correlation coefficient method. Furthermore, reconstruction and comparison of the decomposed signals of MEEMD and CEEMDAN proved that CEEMDAN is effective and accurate in source recognition. The results show that the noise signal of the carpet tufting machine is a mixture of multiple noise source signals. The main noise sources of the carpet tufting machine include shock caused by the impact of the tufted needle and looped hook and vibration of the hook-driven shaft and pressure plate. It provides theoretical support for the noise reduction of the carpet tufting machine.
To investigate the mechanical properties of embedded honeycomb plates with high efficiency and accuracy, a new multilayered equivalent finite element method (FEM) model is proposed. A series of FEM numerical studies (modal analysis, static analysis, and shock spectrum analysis) are performed. The goal is to compare the errors produced by the multilayered equivalent method and by existing equivalent approaches. The obtained results indicate that the proposed model shows good agreement with the original plate. Moreover, based on the new model, a parametric study correlating the microstructure parameters (embedded depth/cell size) to modal frequency is proposed, and a multiparameter equation for frequency and embedded depth/cell size is established to serve as a basis for structural optimization design.
