Abstract
This study aims to identify numerical analysis methods for the reliability prediction of rotating mirror(RM) strength at the early-stage design. A mathematical model for the strength reliability analysis of RM is established based on the Monte Carlo method, small-sample theory, and reliability principle. Numerical analysis on the strength reliability of RM is conducted, and the results are experimentally verified according to small-sample theory. The spearman rank order correlation coefficients between structure parameters and the maximum stress is the circumradius of mirror body, and that of the material variable is the elastic modulus of high-strength aluminum alloy(Al). The skewness and kurtosis values of maximum stress and strain are all positive. Calculated statistical results obey normal distribution and are right skewed. At 95% confidence level, the strength reliability of the RM with a design speed of 70,000ârpm is 0.999. This finding shows that the strength reliability of the RM meets the required design in ideal state. No failure of RMs occurs among strength reliability experiment, proving the validity of the numerical model. This model provides an economic, feasible, and effective method for estimating the strength reliability of RM.
