  • Patent number: 11938974
    Abstract: A series-parallel monorail hoist based on an oil-electric hybrid power and a controlling method thereof. The monorail hoist includes a cabin, a hydraulic driving system, a lifting beam, a gear track driving and energy storage system, and a speed adaptive control system connected in series with each other and travelling on a track. The monorail hoist is capable of implementing an independent drive by an electric motor or a diesel engine in an endurance mode, a hybrid drive of the electric motor and the diesel engine in a transportation mode, and a hybrid drive of the diesel engine and a flywheel energy storage system in a climbing mode, according to different operating conditions that include conditions of an upslope, a downslope and a load. Power requirements for the monorail hoist under various operating conditions are satisfied, and the excess energy is recovered during the process of travelling.

  • Patent number: 11578576
    Abstract: A method for characterizing complexity of rock fracture based on fractal dimension and a device thereof are provided. The method includes steps of: collecting rock fracture samples of a rock, and collecting basic parameters of the rock; determining a fractal dimension of a rock fracture morphology of the rock; calculating the fractal dimension of the rock; calculating a complexity coefficient Fc of rock fracture of the rock; and characterizing a complexity of rock fracture of the rock based on the complexity coefficient Fc of rock fracture of the rock. In the present invention, combined with the fractal geometry theory, fracture complexity coefficient of shale rocks is redefined and calculated to accurately characterize rock fracture morphology, so that characteristics of rock fracture morphology is correctly understood and affecting factors of fracture morphology is analyzed.
