摘要：Bamboo weevil larva has excellent performance on cutting plant fiber. From quantitative analysis of the mandible incisor profile of bamboo weevil larva, it was found that the primary cutting edge of incisor is close to a standard circular arc, which is helpful for improving the cutting efficiency of mandible incisor. Inspired from the geometrical characteristics of the bamboo weevil larva＇s incisor, a new bionic mincing blade was designed and manufactured. The experimental results of chopping equal Chinese cabbages showed that, when the rotational speed was 1400 rpm, the mincing energy consumption of bionic blade was 12.8% lower than conventional blade and the chopping efficiency of bionic blade was 12.5% higher. Meanwhile, the mincing capacity of bionic blade was 36 kg.h-1, which was 1.5 times of that of the conventional blade, 24 kg.h^-1. The material weight loss rate was 11.2 % lower than that of conventional blade. The qualification rate of the minced cabbage chopped by bionic blade was 93,3%, which was higher than the 85.7% of conventional blade. Therefore, the bionic blade could obviously promote the quality of product and the working efficiency of mincing machine. These results would provide guidance for designing cutting component of vegetable choppers, succulence cutter and other food processing machines.

摘要：The fore claws of the nymph of Cryptotympana atrata have excellent ability to cut and dig soil. Inspired by this, we designed a biomimetic stubble cutter to reduce the cutting resistance. Reverse engineering and 3D print technology were applied to design the biomimetic stubble cutter. Two types of biomimetic corn stubble cutters with different tooth heights （5 mm and 2.5 mm） were designed. The cutting ability of biomimetic corn stubble cutters was compared to the conventional design by the quadratic regression orthogonal test. Tooth height, dip angle of cutting edge, and cutting velocity were chosen as orthogonal test factors. The biomimetic stubble cutters show lower cutting resistance than the conventional one. Cutting velocity exerts the least effect on cutting resistance, followed by tooth height and dip angle of cutting edge. Optimal combination with the least cutting resistance is tooth height of 2.5 mm and dip angle of cutting edge of 40° while the cutting resistance does not vary remarkably with cutting velocity. Test results indicate the serrated structure design as a principal factor for cutting resistance reduction. The biomimetic stubble cutter design, inspired by the soil-cutting mechanism of Cryptotympana atrata nymph, remarkably improves the performance of stubble cutter.

摘要：It is very important to analyze and study the motion process of droplets impacting superhydrophobic surface, which is of great significanee to understand the mechanism of superhydrophobic surface and guide the design and manufacture of superhydrophobic surface. Taking by three-dimensional volume of fluid (VOF) simulation coupling coupled level set (CLS) algorithm, on the one hand, we simulate the morphological changes in the process of droplet impingement, as well as the internal velocity and the pressure distribution;on the other hand,we focus on the effects of droplet impact velocity, surface wettability, surface tension on the dynamics of the droplets. The CLSVOF model inherits the advantages of the VOF model for accurately constructing the phase interface and inherits the advantage that the level set can accurately calculate the surface tension, which improves the accuracy of the calculation of the droplet impact on the superhydrophobic surface. The computed results distinctly demonstrated there were four stages: falling, spreading, shrinking and rebounding. The time history of each stage agreed well with the pictures captured by high-speed camera, which indicated the computational fluid dynamics scheme was effective. Moreover, the motion mechanism of the droplets impacting on the solid surface is elaborated, which was helpful to control the solid-liquid interface to achieve a variety of solid interface characteristics.

摘要：Biomimetic blades for soil-rototilling and stubble-breaking were designed learning from the geometrical structure of the tips of toes of mole rat （Scaptochirus moschatus）. The orientation, the number and the central angle of the biomimetic structure were taken as the testing factors. The optimal structure of the biomimetic blade was determined through the tests of soil-rototilling and stubble-breaking operation in an indoor soil bin. The optimal combination of the biomimetic structure pa- rameters is that three arc concave teeth are equally arranged on the front cutting edge with a central angle of 60°. The results of comparative tests between the optimal biomimetic blade and a conventional universal blade show the torque acting on the biomimetic blade is lower during soil-rototilling and stubble-breaking operations. The results of field tests show that the working quality of the biomimetic blades meets the requirements of the national standard of China. Tests of soil-rototilling show that, when the orientation of the biomimetic structure was at low and middle levels, the torque ofbiomimetic blades decreased from 34.17 N·m to 31.03 N·m. The torque also decreased with the increase of the number of biomimetic structure. The average torques were 34.57 N·m, 33.44 N·m and 31.37 N·m, respectively. The maximum different value between two levels of central angle was 0.41 N·m. Tests in field indicate that for soil-rototilling operation, the tillage depth is deeper than 80 mm, the soil-crushing rate （length of soil block less than 40 mm） is over 50 %, and the vegetation coverage rate is over 55 %. For stubble-breaking operation, the stubble-breaking depth is deeper than 70 ram, the stubble-breaking rate （length of stubble less than 40 mm） is over 60%, and the stubble coverage rate is over 80%, which can meet the stubble-breaking requirement of corn.

摘要：The chief aim of the present work was to achieve drag reduction in stator blades with liquid using boundary layer control. A stator blade of hydraulic torque converter with bionic grooves in suction side and hydrophobic surface in pressure side was designed. The hydrophobic surface was created using anodic oxidation method and irregular A1203 thin films were found on the surface. They formed hierarchical structure consisting of mini porous structures and microscopic pore spaces, resulting in the hydrophobicity. The bionic groove was designed by Computational Fluids Dynamics （CFD） method. Multi-Island Genetic Algorithm （MIGA） was adopted for groove multi-objective optimization. Through optimization, the maximum drag reduction was close to 12% in oil. In addition, the drag reduction calculation was verified by closed channel experiment and ＂Tire Vortex＂ was proposed to explain the drag reduction mechanism. The bionic Janus blade could maintain its initial profile without any additional device, which had lower risk and less cost. The results are encouraging and show great potential to apply in other flow machineries.
