AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing methods for predicting wear of sliding bearings often use a single finite element model, which results in long time cycles and an inability to quickly adapt to different bearing models, making them time-consuming and labor-intensive.

Method used

A deep neural network model is trained based on the finite element wear simulation results. A finite element model of bearing wear is established by fitting a material wear rate model, and the deep neural network is trained using simulation data to predict wear amount and life.

Benefits of technology

It achieves efficient and accurate prediction of wear morphology and lifespan, avoiding the high cost and long cycle of physical experiments. It can output wear data online in real time, solving the problem of long calculation time of traditional finite element models.
