Abstract To increase the payload, reduce energy consumption, improve work efficiency and therefore must accordingly reduce the total hull weight of the submersible. This paper introduces a design optimization process for the pressure-hull of submarines under uniform external hydrostatic pressure using both finite element analysis (FEA) and optimization tools. A comprehensive study about the optimum design of the pressure hull, to minimize the weight and increase the volume, to reach minimum buoyancy factor and maximum operating depth minimizing the buoyancy factor (B.F) is taken as an objective function with constraints of plate and frame yielding, general… More >

Abstract In order to explore the impact of different structural design parameters and environmental factors on the performance of the hydrostatic guide rail, the flow field inside its oil chamber is simulated, which provides direction and guidance for the design and optimization of the guide rail system. Based on the theory of fluid lubrication and the Reynolds equation, numerical simulations are performed through a mathematical model. The results suggest that the bearing capacity of the oil film increases with the oil supply pressure. The film thickness and the film stiffness share a positive correlation. Different oil More >

Abstract To use material effective and keep pressure vessel safety, large deformation analysis for pressure vessel is very important. Until 2007, the elastic-plastic stress analysis method, that is the first time all over the world, is provided in ASME a.?-2 edition 2007 for boiler and pressure vessel standard that Finite Element Method is used with large deformation analysis. But there is no common recognized direct solution for the carrying capacity of pressure vessels yet and this restrict the application of large deformation analysis in pressure vessel design. This paper investigates the carrying capacity of pressure vessels… More >
