  • Tower structures have been widely used in communication and transmission engineering. The failure of joints is the leading cause of structure failure, which make it play a crucial role in tower structure engineering. In this study, the aluminum alloy three tube tower structure is taken as the prototype, and the middle joint of the tower was selected as the research object. Three different stainless steel-aluminum alloy composite joints (SACJs), denoted by TA, TB and TC, were designed. Finite element (FE) modeling analysis was used to compare and determine the TC joint as the best solution. Detail requirements of fasteners in the TC stainless steel-aluminum alloy composite joint (TC-SACJ) were designed and verified. In order to systematically and comprehensively study the mechanical properties of TC-SACJ under multi-directional loading conditions, the full-scale experiments and FE simulation models were all performed for mechanical response analysis. The failure modes, load-carrying capacities, and axial load versus displacement/stain testing curves of all full-scale specimens under tension/compression loading conditions were obtained. The results show that the maximum vertical displacement of aluminum alloy tube is 26.9mm, and the maximum lateral displacement of TC-SACJs is 1.0 mm. In general, the TC-SACJs are in an elastic state under the design load, which meet the design requirements and has a good safety reserve. This work can provide references for the design and engineering application of aluminum alloy tower structures.

  • This paper presents the numerical simulation of membrane structure under impact load. Firstly, the numerical simulation model is validated by comparing with the test in Hao's research. Then, the effects of the shape of the projectile, the membrane prestress and the initial impact speed, are investigated for studying the dynamic response and failure mechanism, based on the membrane displacement, projectile acceleration and kinetic energy. Finally, the results show that the initial speed and the punch shape are related with the loss of kinetic energy of projectiles. Meanwhile, the membrane prestress is an important factor that affects the energy dissipation capacity and the impact resistance of membrane structures.

  • Recently the objective of vehicle design was focused on the crash safety and the energy saving. For the energy saving vehicle structures must be light weight, but for the crash safety some energy absorbing elements must be added. In this paper hybrid structure which consists of a steel and a FRP was studied on the energy absorption characteristics under the impact load by finite element method. Test results of the other researchers were compared with that of computer simulation on this simple hybrid structure. Side rail of vehicle front structure was replaced with hybrid materials for the application of the vehicle structure. 35mph frontal crash simulation was performed with hybrid structure and with conventional steel structure. By the adoption of hybrid structure, the improvement of energy absorption characteristics and reduction of weight was observed under the frontal crash simulation.

  • Nowadays with the high fuel prices, the demands for energy saving and green emission of construction machinery have highly been increased without sacrifice of working performance, safety and reliability. The aim of this paper is to propose a new energy saving hybrid excavator system using an electro-hydraulic actuator driven by an electric motor/generator for the regeneration of potential energy. A 5 ton class excavator is analyzed, developed with the boom for the evaluation of the designed system. The hardware implementation is also presented in this paper. A control strategy for the hybrid excavator is proposed to operate the machine with a highest efficiency. The energy saving ability of the proposed excavator is clearly verified through simulation and experimental results in comparison with a conventional hydraulic excavator.

  • The present paper considers the contact between energy-saving device of ice-class vessel and ice block. The main objective of this study is to clarify the tendency of the ice impact force and the structural response as well as interaction effects of them. The contact analysis is performed by using LS-DYNA finite element code. The main collision scenario is based on Finnish-Swedish ice class rules and a stern duct model is used as an energy-saving device. For the contact force, two modelling approaches are adopted. One is dynamic indentation model of ice block based on the pressure-area curve. The other is numerical material modelling by LS-DYNA. The authors investigated the sensitivity of the structural response against the ice contact pressure, the interaction effect between structure and ice block, and the influence of eccentric collision. The results of these simulations are presented and discussed with respect to structural safety.

  • In the past, marine pollution caused by radioactivity and wastewater discharge caused mass destruction. As an alternative, the land farming system became common and operational. In recent years, safety and environmental problems caused by declining population due to aging of fishermen and underdeveloped facilities have always been lurking, so improvement is urgently needed. As part of the new renewable energy 3020 plan announced by the government in 2017, a new model was proposed to improve the environment as well as save energy when the roof of a water tank farm was remodeled into a solar power system. Study, when the existing roof was remodeled and replaced with a water tank farm in Busan as an empirical model, the energy saving rate was analyzed by comparing the actual electricity consumption and power generation.

  • The International Maritime Organization has developed the Energy Efficiency Design Index, an index related to carbon dioxide emissions, to enforce regulations on newly built ships. In this study, a new type of energy-saving device called the ring stator was used for 158k crude oil carriers, whose hull form was developed as a very thin after-body hull to reduce the resistance by delaying separation. The Energy-Saving Device (ESD) particularly involving the duct, is not adapted to the thin-after body hull form-like container ship. This new ring stator was developed considering these characteristics. A parametric study was conducted through Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) analysis using the Star-CCM+ program, and approximately 3.4 % improvement in propulsion efficiency was achieved. Further optimization investigations and experimental studies should be conducted in the future.

  • The main task of agro-industrial production is to provide the population with food products for the production of which energy is expended in the form of electricity, technical means, fuels and lubricants, mineral fertilizers, etc. Accordingly, we have developed a concept and general methodological principles for the analysis of ecological and biotechnical systems in animal husbandry, it makes it possible to simulate the influence of various factors on the energy and ecological efficiency of systems, to compare and search for energy-saving modes and technologies. General methodological principles have been developed for the analysis of energy efficiency and environmental safety of agricultural ecological and biotechnical systems, which are based on the definition of the bioenergy efficiency coefficient, the quantitative expression of which is the ratio of energy accumulated in products to the total energy consumption for its production. This makes it possible to model with sufficient accuracy the influence of various factors on the energy and environmental efficiency of the system, to compare and search for energy-saving modes and technologies in order to find and select the most energy efficient ones to increase the energy efficiency of the complex.
