Resumen

To obtain the physical parameters and contact parameters of ramie stalk decorticating simulation, the structural dimensions, density, moisture content, elastic modulus, and contact parameters of the ramie stalk were measured in this study based on the phloem and xylem of the ramie stalk. The physical stacking angles of the phloem and xylem were measured by the cylinder lift method and the extraction of the partition method, respectively. The contact parameters between the xylem and phloem of the ramie stalk were directly calibrated. Additionally, the contact parameters of the phloem?phloem, phloem?Q235A steel, xylem?xylem, and xylem?Q235A steel were used as calibration objects, and the simulated stacking angle was used as the evaluation index. Then, the Plackett?Burman test was designed to screen for the parameters which were significantly affecting the simulated stacking angle. Furthermore, the steepest ascent test determined the optimal range of values for two significant parameters of the phloem and three significant parameters of the xylem. Based on the central composite design, the second-order regression equations between the significant parameters of the phloem and xylem and the stacking angle were established, respectively. The physical stacking angles of 37.93° for phloem and 27.17° for xylem were the target values to obtain the optimal parameter group. The results showed that the restitution, static, and rolling friction coefficients between the xylem and phloem were 0.60, 0.53, and 0.021, respectively. The static and rolling friction coefficients between the phloem and phloem were 0.41 and 0.056, respectively. The rolling friction coefficient between the xylem and Q235A steel was 0.033, and the static and rolling friction coefficients between the xylem and xylem were 0.44 and 0.016, respectively. The verification test showed that the relative error values were less than 2.11%, which further indicated that the modeling method and parameter calibration of the ramie stalk phloem and xylem models were accurate and reliable. They can be used for the subsequent calibration simulation tests of ramie stalk bonding parameters and ramie stalk decorticating simulations.
