    Abstract In the research field of reactor pressure vessel (RPV) subjected to pressurized thermal shock (PTS), the traditional linear elastic analytical method generally ignores the plastic properties of cladding. In fact, the neutron irradiation in RPV is easy to cause the embrittlement of the base material rather than cladding. So the elastic-plastic parameters of cladding are introduced into the FE model of the RPV with a sub-clad crack. The stress distributions in the thermal-mechanical coupling fields related to the base wall and cladding of different thicknesses are then obtained. The XFEM is used to simulate the crack growth in the nozzle area. The allowable internal pressure in the dangerous moment of the PTS is calculated to show the ultimate bearing capacity of the structure. The numerical results are compared with those only considering the elasticity of cladding. Furthermore, the law of the effect of plasticity of cladding on the structural safety is summarized.

    Abstract In order to provide a convenient way to strengthen the rotator cuff muscles and prevent rotator cuff injury, this study designed an innovative strength trainer specifically for shoulder rotator cuff based on oscillating hydraulic damping. We carried out a myoelectric testing experiment to evaluate the shoulder rotation training effect and compared the results with traditional training equipment to verify the feasibility and validity of the new rotator cuff trainer (RCT). Then, we further explored the influence of different training postures and motion speeds on shoulder rotation training. In the experiment, subjects used three types of equipment (RCT, dumbbells and elastic bands) to perform shoulder rotation training under two movement speeds and two motion postures. The surface electromyography (sEMG) signals of targeted muscles were collected in real time and then further analyzed. The experimental results showed that when using the RCT, the muscle force generation sequence was more aligned with the biomechanical principles of shoulder rotation than using the other two training methods, and the target training muscles had the higher percentage of muscle work. During RCT training, a higher speed of movement (120°/s) led to a higher degree of muscle activation; coronal axis rotation was better for the infraspinatus training, and sagittal axis rotation was better for teres minor training. Based on these results, the RCT was proved to be more effective than traditional training methods. In order to exercise the different muscles of rotator cuff more comprehensively and extensively, different postures should be selected. Furthermore, the movement speed can be appropriately increased within the safe range to improve muscle activation.

    Abstract The performance and flaws of welded joints are important features that characteristics of the welding material influence. There is significant research activity on the performance and characteristics of welding joint materials. However, the properties of dissimilar welding materials and the cracking problem have not been thoroughly investigated. This investigation focuses on the evaluation and analysis of fracture mechanics, including fracture toughness, microstructural analysis, and crack initiation of T2 copper-45 steel dissimilar welding materials. Standard tensile and three-point bending experiments were performed to calculate the ultimate strength, yield strength, and elastic modulus for fracture toughness. The macro/micro-fracture morphology for tensile fracture and three-point bending fracture were analysed. Based on these investigations, it was concluded that the fracture types were quasi-cleavage and an intergranular brittle fracture mixed model. The deflection of the crack path was discussed and it was determined that the crack was extended along the weld area and tilted towards the T2 copper. Finally, the crack propagation and deflecting direction after the three-point bending test could provide the basis for improvement in the performance of welded joints based on experimental testing parameters and ABAQUS finite element analysis.

    Abstract A running exhaustion experiment was used to explore the correlations between the time-frequency domain indexes extracted from the surface electromyography (EMG) signals of targeted muscles, heart rate and exercise intensity, and subjective fatigue. The study made further inquiry into the feasibility of reflecting and evaluating the exercise intensity and fatigue effectively during running using physiological indexes,thus providing individualized guidance for running fitness. Twelve healthy men participated in a running exhaustion experiment with an incremental and constant load. The percentage of heart rate reserve (%HRR), mean power frequency (MPF) and root mean square (RMS) from surface EMG (sEMG) signals of the rectus femoris (RF), biceps femoris (BF), tibialis anterior muscle (TA), and the lateral head of gastrocnemius (GAL) were obtained in real-time. The data were processed and analyzed with the rating of perceived exertion (RPE) scale. The experimental results show that the MPF on all the muscles increased with time, but there was no significant correlation between MPF and RPE in both experiments. Additionally, there was no significant correlation between RMS and RPE of GAL and BF, but there was a negative correlation between RMS and RPE of RF. The correlation coefficient was lower in the constant load mode, with the value of only -0.301. The correlation between RMS and RPE of TA was opposite in both experiments. There was a significant linear correlation between %HRR and exercise intensity (r = 0.943). In the experiment, %HRR was significantly correlated with subjective exercise fatigue (r = 0.954). Based on the above results,the MPF and RMS indicators on the four targeted muscles could not conclusively identify fatigue of lower extremities during running. The %HRR could be used to identify exercise intensity and human fatigue during running and could be used as an indicator of recognizing fatigue and exercise intensity in runners.
