Abstract: A wear monitoring method of a polymer thrust bearing based on an ultrasonic reflection coefficient amplitude spectrum (URCAS), includes: selecting a corresponding delay block probe based on a material of a to-be-tested bearing, and setting corresponding parameters of a pulse generator; after collecting a primary echo from a surface of the delay block probe as a reference signal, placing the delay block probe in a designated region on a back of the to-be-tested bearing, and collecting time-domain echo signals from upper and lower surfaces of the bearing; establishing a propagation model of an ultrasonic signal in a polymer bearing, and calculating a theoretical URCAS based on the propagation model; calculating a measured URCAS; and constructing an objective function, and solving the objective function by using a differential evolution algorithm. A plurality of parameters of the polymer bearing is solved to meet a requirement for wear monitoring by adopting the method.

Abstract: A method for calculating coupled lubrication and dynamics characteristic parameters of a flanged bearing includes three modules: a flanged bearing journal-trust thermal elastohydrodynamic coupled lubrication module, a flanged bearing dynamics characteristic parameter calculation module and a flanged bearing relative position feedback module. It considers the joint motion law of the journal part and the thrust part, and also considers the flow, pressure and thermal continuity conditions of the lubricant on the common boundary of the flange bearing, and finally forms the journal-thrust transient coupled lubrication analysis method of the flange bearing. On the basis, considerations are further given to the stiffness and the damping characteristics of the flanged bearing under the coupled effect, thereby achieving accurate simulation of the dynamic and the tribology performance of the flanged bearing, and solving the problem of lubrication failure of the flanged bearing.
