  • vc and acis hoops based semi physical virtual Prototype Design and motion simulation of 2d scanning mirror
    Eighth International Symposium on Multispectral Image Processing and Pattern Recognition, 2013
    Co-Authors: Xiang Yan Liu, Xiaobing Dai, Pengcheng Gao
    Abstract:

    Image-spectrum integrated instrument is an infrared scanning system which integrates optics, mechanics, electrics and information processing. Not only can it achieve scene imaging, but also it can detect, track and identify targets of interests in the scene through acquiring their spectra. After having a brief introduction to image-spectrum integrated instrument and analyzing how 2D scanning mirror works, this paper built 3D model of 2D scanning mirror and simulated its motion using two PCs basing on VC++ and ACIS/HOOPS. Two PCs communicate with each other through serial ports. One PC serves as host computer, on which controlling software runs, is responsible for loading image sequence, image processing, target detecting, and generating and sending motion commands to scanning mirror. The other serves as slave computer, on which scanning mirror motion simulation software runs, is responsible for receiving motion commands to control scanning mirror to finish corresponding movements. This method proposed in this paper adopted semi-physical virtual Prototype technology and used real scene image sequence to control virtual 2D scanning mirror and simulates motion of real 2D scanning mirror. It has no need for real scanning mirror and is of important practical significance for debugging controlling software of 2D scanning mirror.

  • vc and acis hoops based semi physical virtual Prototype Design and motion simulation of 3d printer
    Applied Mechanics and Materials, 2013
    Co-Authors: Xiang Yan Liu
    Abstract:

    3D Printing is a widely used manufacturing method whose processing speed is very fast. This method is suitable for a variety of complex geometric structure in many application fields, and supports a variety of material types. At present, 3D printer is not only used in manufacturing, but also began to be used in education, architecture, Design industries and so on. However, at home, there are less 3D printer manufacturers most of which are universities and research institutions, and price of 3D printer is relatively expensive. After analyzing how 3D printer works, this paper built 3D model of 3D printer and achieved printing simulation of STL model using two PCs basing on VC++ and ACIS/HOOPS. Two PCs communicate with each other through serial ports. One PC serves as host computer, on which controlling software runs, is responsible for loading the STL model, data processing, generating and sending printing commands and data to 3D printer. The other serves as slave computer, on which 3D printer simulation software runs, is responsible for receiving motion commands to control 3D printer to finish corresponding movements. Real-time rendering of 3D printer and human-computer interaction are achieved using rendering engine HOOPS. This method proposed in this paper adopted semi-physical virtual Prototype technology, used real STL model to control virtual 3D printer to simulate 3D printing. It has no need for real 3D printer and is of important practical significance for debugging software of 3D printer.

  • Design and verify of axial field flux modulation magnetic gear
    Electric Machines and Control Application, 2013
    Co-Authors: Huang Surong
    Abstract:

    Comparing to the traditional gear box,the axial-field flux modulation magnetic gear takes the advantages of no rubbing,no lubricating,no repairing by changing the ratio and poles.One kinds of axial-field modulation magnetic gear was Designed by 2D transient field and 3D static field finite element method.The experimental results show that the finite element analysis is precision and the Prototype Design is rational.

  • small scale electricity generation from a portable biomass cookstove Prototype Design and preliminary results
    Applied Energy, 2013
    Co-Authors: S M Oshaughnessy, M J Deasy, C E Kinsella, J V Doyle, A J Robinson
    Abstract:

    Abstract The World Health Organisation estimates that over 20% of the global population (∼1.4 billion people) lack access to electricity. Furthermore, 40% of the global population (∼2.7 billion people) rely on the traditional use of biomass for cooking (WHO 2011, OEDC/IEA, 2010). This study details the development of a Prototype electrical generator for portable stoves commonly in use in the developing world. This generator is capable of delivering small amounts of off-grid electricity. Power is generated using the thermoelectric effect. A single thermoelectric module is utilised to convert a small portion of heat from the stove to electricity. The electricity produced is used to charge a single 3.3 V lithium–iron phosphate battery and drive a low power fan, as well as some other auxiliary features. The airflow produced by the fan is used in conjunction with a commercially available heat pipe heat sink to maintain an adequate temperature difference across the thermoelectric module. From experiments in the laboratory, a maximum TEG power output of 5.9 W has been obtained. On average, 3 W h of energy was stored in a battery during a typical 1 h long burn. Three 1 h long burns produced sufficient energy to fully charge the battery. The performance of the electricity generating cooking stove has subsequently been tested in Malawi using locally sourced fuel and fire stoking methods.
