Project Highlights
Research and Development of a Tunnel Experimental Apparatus (was awarded the 1st prize of China National Science and Technology Process Awards in 2012.)
The project was a sub-project of "Basic Research on Design and Manufacture for Full-size Tunnel Boring Machine (TBM)", a National Basic Research Program of China under Grant-973, the total investment for the project is $8 MCAD. The TBMs were produced 160+ sets.
Key Responsibilities
Developed and built a reduced sized prototype of a Ф6.25m EPB (Earth Pressure Balanced) shield machine on similar theory including the mechanical and control system.
Built a creative structure of the cutting and driving for simulation performance to meet the needs of interface equilibrium, cutting and driving experiments.
Realized the integrated performance simulation and analysis of kinematics, dynamics and control based on the structural and dynamic parameters design of the TBM prototype.
Built a virtual prototype of whole equipment on 3D modeling and CAE. Completed FEA of structure, kinematics and dynamic analysis, modal behavior, vibration analysis, structural optimization on Multi-CAD interoperability system including SolidWorks, Ansys and MSC.ADAMS.
Analyzed static, dynamic and vibration behavior of the complete set of equipment and key components in terms of critical load conditions during the processes of launch.
Professional Experience-Continued
Optimized structure and made recommendations to improve boring performance of the TBM on Virtual Prototype Technology and real model testing.
Researched technique of the integration between the hydraulic system and electrical control system for structure design and control system optimization of tunneling machine.
Project Highlights
