Experiments and P rojects

Cont rol System Expe riment: Simulation of Control systems

Used Simulink to construct the solution model of classic differential

equations;

Output the response curve in t ime domain.

Cont rol System Expe riment: Modeling DC Motor:

Apply Newton’s Law and Ki rchoff’s Law to the motor system based on the

electric circuit and got the differential equations for the system;

Transferred the equations into Laplace form and set corresponding blocks

to complete the model;

Similarly, completed the modeling by using SIMSCAPE.

Mechat ronics project: Lighting system of the robot car

Designed the wiring system to control the robot car steering and lighting;

Arranged the wires in two separate breadboards, one for controlling

d irection and the other one for controlling lighting;

Realized the function that the robot car back up a li ttle after encountering

obstacles and then made a turn, LEDs and LED bar would blink correspondingly.

Senior design project: Underbody shield

Received chassis data from HP Corporation for the purpose of designing a

u nderbody shield for one client of HP’s;

Used CATIA to design the shape and structure of shield based on the data

and compared multiple designing schemes to select the optimal one;

Built a wooden model according to the scale of 1:1 and made it molding;

Tested the acoustic properties of shield and the shield came out to be a

h ighly recognized work.

F EA Course P roject: B ridge design

Proposed a bridge model on the base of dimensional requirements and

designed the frame structure by using proper beams;

Modified the beam distributions and structure outline to find the optimal

scheme by calculating the loading efficiency, the result of mine was one of the

l argest in the class.

Based on the design, obtained the first 5 modes of the bridge.

F EA P roject: Gear Rack Stress Analysis

Simulated the process of gear rack mechanism;

Obtained stress distributions and contact pressures between gear and rack

for different rotation positions, also output the curve of “Torque on the spur gear

vs. Rack travelling”.

N onlinear F EA Course P roject: Tensile Specimen Analysis under

m onotonic loading

Processed the tensile test data, obtained Young’s Modulus and plastic

p roperties;

Built the model of specimen based on given dimensions and ran the

analysis, then compared with the results in test data;

The results perfectly matched with the test data.

Nonlinear F EA Course P roject: Fatigue Specimen Analysis under cyclic

l oading

Processed the cyclic test data, obtained material properties of hardening

p rocesses;

Built the model of fatigue specimen under cyclic loading and ran the

analysis, then compared with the test results;

The results came out to prove the test results, and my project was given

f ull marks by professor.

Vehicle thermal management project: I mp rovement of waste heat

r ecovery for H E V

Theoretically analyzed effect of different waste heat recovery cycles and

p roposed the best cycle;

Built model by using Simulink, calculated the efficiency of different cycles, then

t he cycle was proved to improve the utilization efficiency of exhaust gas.

Experience
