Research on a New Hardness Testing Device Based on Virtual Design

Abstract

Structure optimization of Hardness Testing Device (HTD) based on virtual design is proposed here. The purpose of the HTD is to obtain hardness properties of accessories. Since the creation of the previous HTD, a few problems have been experienced during testing. In the present work, improvements in both equipment design and automation control have been made. A realistic digital analysis is generated by combining automated and interactive approaches to evaluate the capability of the device with simulation software ADAMS and AMESim. Theoretical analysis is taken into account to obtain numerical results close to reality. The approach and the conclusions should be useful for composite structures design. The improved design of HTD reduces the number of costly physical prototypes, improves design quality and reduces product development time.

Shearer Height Adjustment Based on Mechanical-Electrical-Hydraulic Cosimulation

“…In recent years, with the rapid development of computer technology, cosimulation technology has been widely used for solving multidomain problems [17], [18]. For instance, the cutting vibration behavior of the continuous miner [19], nonlinear motion behavior of the robot [20][21][22][23], complex fluid dynamics analysis and structural optimization design of variable displacement pump [24][25][26], fuel system design and fuel economy analysis of hybrid cars [27][28][29][30], and other mechanical-hydraulic cosimulations have been performed [31][32][33][34]. There are few literature reports focusing on cosimulation problems with three or more domains.…”
