The microstructure of the particulate segregation region consists of alumina particulate and Al alloy matrix with the Al 2Cu and MgAl 2O 4. It contains more and smaller alumina particulates compared with the base material region. The TLP bonded joints have the tensile strength of 150 MPa ～200 MPa and the shear strength of 70 MPa ～100 MPa . With increasing tensile stress, cracks initiate in the particulate segregation region, especially in the particulate/particulate interface and the particulate/matrix interface, and propagate along particulate/matrix interface, througth thin matrix metal and by linking up the close cracks. The particulate segregation region is the weakest during tensile testing and shear testing due to obviously increased proportion of weak bonds (particulate particulate bond and particulate matrix bond).展开更多

A new technique, namely, the free-matrix-based time-dependent discontinuous Lyapunov functional approach, is adopted in constructing the Lyapunov functional, which takes advantage of the sampling characteristic of sawtooth input delay. Based on this discontinuous Lyapunov functional, some less conservative synchronization criteria are established to ensure that the slave system is synchronous with the master system. The desired sampled-data controller can be obtained through the use of the linear matrix inequality（LMI） technique. Finally, two numerical examples are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness and the improvements of the proposed methods.展开更多

It applies quaternion in special cases of rotated plane, transforming the sine and cosine of the rotation angle into matrix form, then exporting flat quaternions base in two matrix form. It establishes serial 6R manipulator kinematic equations in the form of quaternion matrix. Then five variables are eliminated through linear elimination and application of lexicographic Groebner base. Thus, upper bound of the degree of the equation is determined, which is 16. In this way, a 16-degree equation with single variable is obtained without any extraneous root. This is the first time that quaternion matrix modeling has been used in 6R robot inverse kinematics analysis.展开更多

It can effectively reconstruct each object trajectory, besides provide sufficient flexibility for personalized audio scene reconstruction. So more and more attentions have been paid to the object-based audio coding. However, existing object-based techniques have poor sound quality because of low parameter frequency domain resolution. In order to achieve high quality audio object coding, we propose a new coding framework with introducing the non-negative matrix factorization(NMF) method. We extract object parameters with high resolution to improve sound quality, and apply NMF method to parameter coding to reduce the high bitrate caused by high resolution. And the experimental results have shown that the proposed framework can improve the coding quality by 25%, so it can provide a better solution to encode audio scene in a more flexible and higher quality way.展开更多

The convergence of the new methods is discussed when the coefficient matrix is a positive definite matrix or a positive semi-definite matrix, respectively. The advantages of the new methods are that they can solve the large scale stochastic linear complementarity problem, and spend less computational time. Numerical results show that the new methods are efficient and suitable for solving the large scale problems.展开更多

The results show that the moving matrix dislocation type and its position with respect to the interfacial misfit dislocation segments have considerable influences on the interactions. If the moving matrix dislocation is pure screw, it reacts with the interracial misfit dislocation segments toward dislocation linear energy reduction, which decreases the critical bowing stress of screw dislocation due to dislocation linear energy release during the dislocation reactions. If the moving matrix dislocation is of 60^-mixed type, it is obstructed by the interaction between the mixed matrix dislocations and the misfit interfacial dislocation segments. As a result, the critical bowing stress increases significantly because extra interactive energy needs to be overcome. These two different effects on the critical bowing stress become in- creasingly significant when the moving matrix dislocation is very close to the interracial misfit dislocation segments. In addition, the matrix channel width also has a significant influence on the critical bowing stress, i.e. the narrower the matrix channel is, the higher the critical bowing stress is. The classical Orowan formula is modified to predict these effects on the critical bowing stress of moving matrix dislocation, which is in good agreement with the computational results.展开更多

The algorithm usesflexibility matrix and strain energy concept to detect the damage in the members. Thebehaviour of the frame is discussed through changes observed in flexibility in theassociated degree of freedom. Finally, the results indicate that, the damage indexdetermined by generalized flexibility matrix method is more reliable than using theoriginal flexibility matrix based method for the problem of settlement and rotation offooting base.展开更多

Cu-based metal matrix composites reinforced with different amounts of xGnP were fabricated by powder metallurgy route. The microstructure, sliding wear behaviour and mechanical properties of the Cu-xGnP composites were investigated. xGnP has been synthesized from the graphite intercalation compounds (GIC) through rapid evaporation of the intercalant at an elevated temperature. The thermally exfoliated graphite was later sonicated for a period of 5 h in acetone in order to achieve further exfoliation. The xGnP synthesized was characterized using SEM, HRTEM, X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The Cu and xGnP powder mixtures were consolidated under a load of 565 MPa followed by sintering at 850°C for 2 h in inert atmosphere. Cu-1, 2, 3 and 5 wt% xGnP composites were developed. Results of the wear test show that there is a significant improvement in the wear resistance of the composites up to addition of 2 wt% of xGnP. Hardness, tensile strength and strain at failure of the various Cu-xGnP composites also show improvement upto the addition of 2 wt% xGnP beyond which there is a decrease in these properties. The density of the composites decreases with the addition of higher wt% of xGnP although addition of higher wt% of xGnP leads to higher sinterability and densification of the composites, resulting in higher relative density values. The nature of fracture in the pure Cu as well as the various Cu-xGnP composites was found to be ductile. Nanoplatelets of graphite were found firmly embedded in the Cu matrix in case of Cu-xGnP composites containing low wt% of xGnP.展开更多

文摘Direct dynamics simulations are a useful and general approach for studying the atomistic properties of complex chemical systems because they do not require fitting an analytic potential energy function.Hessian-based predictor-corrector integrators are a widely used approach for calculating the trajectories of moving atoms in direct dynamics simulations.We employ a monodromy matrix to propose a tool for evaluating the accuracy of integrators in the trajectory calculation.We choose a general velocity Verlet as a different object.We also simulate molecular with hydrogen(CO_2) and molecular with hydrogen(H_2O) motions.Comparing the eigenvalues of monodromy matrix,many simulations show that Hessian-based predictor-corrector integrators perform well for Hessian updates and non-Hessian updates.Hessian-based predictor-corrector integrator with Hessian update has a strong performance in the H_2O simulations.Hessian-based predictor-corrector integrator with Hessian update has a strong performance when the integrating step of the velocity Verlet approach is tripled for the predicting step.In the CO_2 simulations,a strong performance occurs when the integrating step is a multiple of five.
