Low field magnetoresistance ( LFMR ) is greatly enhanced at low temperature when the system is close to the metallic percolation threshold of x=0.4. The magnetoresistance ratio of ( LCMO)_(0.4) /( ZrO_2 )_(0.6) in a 10 mT magnetic field at 77 K is 7.8 %, about 7.12 times larger than that of pure LCMO compound. The enhancement of spin-dependent tunneling of electrons at the interfaces between LCMO and ZrO_2 grains is responsible for the enhanced LFMR. With increasing ZrO_2 addition, Curie temperature T_C decreases firstly and then remains constant at about 220 K when (x<60%), showing limited substitution effect of Zr ions on B sites.展开更多

The calculated results show that in a larger system, the rectifying direction can be reversed only by adjusting the thermal bias. Moreover, the rectification reversal depends critically on the system size and the properties of the interface. The mechanisms of the two types of asymmetric heat conduction induced by nonlinearity are discussed. Considering the novel asymmetric heat conduction in the system, it may possess possible applications to manage the thermal rectification in situ directionally without re-building the structure.展开更多

In this approach, the original high-order coupled nonlinear two-point boundary value problem (TPBVP) derived from the Pontrya- gin's maximum principle is first transformed into a sequence of lower-order deeoupled linear time-invariant TPBVPs. Then, an optimal control law which consists of both feedback and forward terms is achieved by using the modal series method for the derived sequence. The feedback term specified by local states of each subsystem is determined by solving a ma- trix Riccati differential equation. The forward term for each subsystem derived from its local information is an infinite sum of adjoint vectors. The convergence analysis and parallel processing capability of the proposed approach are also provided. To achieve an accurate feedforward-feedbaek suboptimal control, we apply a fast iterative algorithm with low com- putational effort. Finally, some comparative results are included to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.展开更多

The results indicate that for the samples with low sintering temperature of the matrix, lowfield magnetoresistance effect appears on the whole temperature range and can be explained by grain boundary effect; for the sample with high sintering temperature of the matrix, intrinsic magnetoresistance peak appears on the high-temperature range, low-field magnetore-sistance effect appears on low temperature range, and the magnetoresistance in the magnetic field of 0.2 T and on the comparatively large temperature range between 280 K and 225 K hardly changes with temperature and remains at 4.8%, which can be explained by the competition between the intrinsic magnetoresistance induced by double-exchange function inside grains and the tunneling magnetoresis-tance (TMR) induced by grain boundary effect. The temperature stability of magnetoresistance is beneficial to the practical applications of MR.展开更多

The electric transport properties and the temperature stabil-ity of magnetoresistance (MR) of the samples were studied through the measurements of X-ray diffraction patterns, resistivity-temperature (ρ-T) curves, mass magnetization-temperature (σ-T) curves, and magnetoresistance-temper-ature (MR-T) curves. The results indicate that the p-Tcurves of the original material LSNMO show two peaks, and the phenomenon of two peaks of ρ-T curves disappears for the composite samples, which can be explained by a competition between surface-phase resistivity induced by boundary-dependent scattering and body-phase resistivity induced by paramagnetism-ferromagnetism transition. For all the sam-ples in the low temperature range, MR increases continu-ously with the decrease of temperature, which shows a characteristic of low-field magnetoresistance. However, MR basically keeps the same in the high temperature range. The paramagnetism-ferromagnetism transition is observed in the high temperature range due to a composite between perov-skite manganite and insulator, which can enhance the tem-perature of MR appearance in the high temperature range and make it to appear near room temperature. For the sample with x = 0.12, MR remains constant at the value of 7.5 % in the temperature range of 300-260 K, which achieves a tem-perature stability of MR near room temperature. In addition,for the sample with x = 0.16, MR is above 6.8 % in the high temperature range of 318-252 K (△T = 66 K). MR almost remains constant in this temperature range, which favors the practical application of MR.展开更多

Finally, the stability analysis result is applied in the supervisory control of fractional-order multi-agent systems, and an example is provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed methods.展开更多

The chloride ISEs (ion selective electrodes) in this research were the solid membrane chloride ISEs based AgC1. There were two types of chloride ISEs that were developed, namely the chloride ISEs of coated wire and composite systems. Both types of electrodes were characterized. The selectivity was done by comparing Esel of the chloride standard solutions and Esel of the interference ions (Br- and I-). The measurement of chloride ions in water samples was done by using the coated wire chloride ISE, the composite chloride ISE and the Mohr method. We compared the result of the two chloride ISE methods to that of standard method for chloride determination (Mohr) by using F-test and Post Hoc Test LSD (least significant difference) and Duncan. Analysis by using F-test and Post Hoc Test (LSD and Duncan) and characterization results of both the methods showed that coated wire chloride ISE was more effective compared to composite chloride ISE. Nemstian response was 59.83 mV/decade, linier range measurement was 10-1-10-5 M, limit detection was 1.23 × 10-5 M, response time along was 25 s and interfering ion was 10-4 M Br-.展开更多

The effects of the CuO particle size on the synthesis temperature and microstructure of the composites were investigated by various methods. The results indicate that the CuO particle size has a significant effect on the temperature at which the complete reaction in the Al-CuO system occurs:the temperature is 200 ℃ lower in the Al-CuO system containing CuO particles with sizes less than 6μm than that containing CuO particles with sizes less than 100μm. The interfacial bonding between Al2O3 particles and Al is not complete when the temperature is below a critical value. The morphology of the Al2O3 particles varies from ribbon-like shape to near spherical shape when the temperature is above a critical value. These two critical temperatures are affected by the particle size of CuO, and the critical temperature of the sample containing CuO particles with sizes less than 6μm is 100 ℃ lower than that of the sample containing CuO particles with sizes less than 100μm.展开更多

The results indicate that the p-Tcurves of the original material LSNMO show two peaks, and the phenomenon of two peaks of ρ-T curves disappears for the composite samples, which can be explained by a competition between surface-phase resistivity induced by boundary-dependent scattering and body-phase resistivity induced by paramagnetism-ferromagnetism transition. For all the sam-ples in the low temperature range, MR increases continu-ously with the decrease of temperature, which shows a characteristic of low-field magnetoresistance. However, MR basically keeps the same in the high temperature range. The paramagnetism-ferromagnetism transition is observed in the high temperature range due to a composite between perov-skite manganite and insulator, which can enhance the tem-perature of MR appearance in the high temperature range and make it to appear near room temperature. For the sample with x = 0.12, MR remains constant at the value of 7.5 % in the temperature range of 300-260 K, which achieves a tem-perature stability of MR near room temperature. In addition,for the sample with x = 0.16, MR is above 6.8 % in the high temperature range of 318-252 K (△T = 66 K). MR almost remains constant in this temperature range, which favors the practical application of MR.

文摘This paper is concerned with fundamental properties of a class of composite systems with fractional degree generalized frequency variables, including controllability, observability and stability. Firstly, some necessary and sufficient conditions are given to guarantee controllability and observability of such composite systems. Then we prove that the stability problem of such composite systems can be reduced to judging whether a fractional degree polynomial is stable. Finally, the stability analysis result is applied in the supervisory control of fractional-order multi-agent systems, and an example is provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed methods.

文摘On the base of controllable variable stiffness property,variable stiffness composites were the main components of functional materials in aerospace.However,the relatively low mechanical strength,stiffness range,and response rate restricted the application of variable stiffness composite.In this work,the novel variable stiffness composite system with characteristics of repeatable high load bearing and response rate was successfully prepared via the double-layer anisotropic structure to solve the bottlenecks of variable stiffness composites.The novel variable stiffness composite systems were composed of variable stiffness layer of polycaprolactone(PCL)and the driven layer of silicone elastomer with alcohol,which continuously changed Young’s modulus from 0.1 to 7.263 MPa(72.63 times variation)in 200 s and maintained maximum weight of 11.52 times its own weight(8.5 g).Attributed to the relatively high variable stiffness range and load bearing value of variable stiffness composite system,the repeatable response process led to the efficient high load driven as“muscle”and diversified precise grab of objects with different shapes as“gripper”,owning widespread application prospects in the field of bionics.

文摘We synthesize composite systems of multi-wall carbon nanotubes(MWCNTs)/SiO_(2) by using the sol−gel method.The dielectric properties of the systems with different-concentration MWCNTs are studied.In our MWCNTs/SiO_(2) inorganic systems,the twin−percolation phenomenon exists when the concentrations of MWCNTs are 5–10%and 15–20%.The permittivity and conductivity have jumping changes.The twin−percolation phenomenon is attributed to the special transfer mechanism of MWCNTs in the system,determined by hopping and migrating electrons.Variations of dielectric properties and conductance of the MWCNTs/SiO_(2) systems are conformed to the percolation theory.The special percolation phenomenon and electric properties of MWCNTs/SiO_(2) can help us comprehend the conductivity mechanism of the MWCNTs/SiO2 systems effectively,and promote the development of a high performance function composite system.
文摘The wetting behaviour of titanium carbide by molten nickel was investigated at different oxygen partial pressures by using the sessile drop method.Special attention was paid to the kinetics of wetting.Wetting process in the Ni/TiC system is controlled by the dissolution of TiC in the liquid phase.Discussions were made on the basis of the new experimental results achieved in the present investigation and those given in the literature for the Ni/TiC system and for some similar metal/carbon systems to elucidate how the interfacial dissolution reaction influences the wetting process.The reactive wetting process is a complex mat- ter and is very sensitive to the experimental conditions.Implantation of the wetting study in the composite processings was also suggested and the optimum processing is proposed.
文摘The purpose of this research was to fmd out effectiveness of chloride solid membrane electrode of coated wire system compared to solid membrane electrode of composite system, the Nernstian response and character's potential response (detection limit, selectivity and response time). The chloride ISEs (ion selective electrodes) in this research were the solid membrane chloride ISEs based AgC1. There were two types of chloride ISEs that were developed, namely the chloride ISEs of coated wire and composite systems. Both types of electrodes were characterized. The selectivity was done by comparing Esel of the chloride standard solutions and Esel of the interference ions (Br- and I-). The measurement of chloride ions in water samples was done by using the coated wire chloride ISE, the composite chloride ISE and the Mohr method. We compared the result of the two chloride ISE methods to that of standard method for chloride determination (Mohr) by using F-test and Post Hoc Test LSD (least significant difference) and Duncan. Analysis by using F-test and Post Hoc Test (LSD and Duncan) and characterization results of both the methods showed that coated wire chloride ISE was more effective compared to composite chloride ISE. Nemstian response was 59.83 mV/decade, linier range measurement was 10-1-10-5 M, limit detection was 1.23 × 10-5 M, response time along was 25 s and interfering ion was 10-4 M Br-.

文摘A composite anti-disturbance predictive control strategy employing a Multi-dimensional Taylor Network(MTN)is presented for unmanned systems subject to time-delay and multi-source disturbances.First,the multi-source disturbances are addressed according to their specific characteristics as follows:(A)an MTN data-driven model,which is used for uncertainty description,is designed accompanied with the mechanism model to represent the unmanned systems;(B)an adaptive MTN filter is used to remove the influence of the internal disturbance;(C)an MTN disturbance observer is constructed to estimate and compensate for the influence of the external disturbance;(D)the Extended Kalman Filter(EKF)algorithm is utilized as the learning mechanism for MTNs.Second,to address the time-delay effect,a recursiveτstep-ahead MTN predictive model is designed utilizing recursive technology,aiming to mitigate the impact of time-delay,and the EKF algorithm is employed as its learning mechanism.Then,the MTN predictive control law is designed based on the quadratic performance index.By implementing the proposed composite controller to unmanned systems,simultaneous feedforward compensation and feedback suppression to the multi-source disturbances are conducted.Finally,the convergence of the MTN and the stability of the closed-loop system are established utilizing the Lyapunov theorem.Two exemplary applications of unmanned systems involving unmanned vehicle and rigid spacecraft are presented to validate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

文摘In chemical science,the vertical ionization potential(VIP)is a crucial metric for understanding the electronegativity,hardness and softness of chemical material systems as well as the electronic structure and stability of molecules.Ever since the last century,the model chemistry composite methods have witnessed tremendous developments in computing the thermodynamic properties as well as the barrier heights.However,their performance in realm of the vertical electron processes of molecular systems has been rarely explored.In this study,we for the first time benchmarked the model chemistry composite methods(e.g.,CBS-QB3,G4 and W1BD)in comparison with the commonly used Koopmans's theorem(KT),electron propagator theory(e.g.,OVGF,D2,P3 and P3+)and CCSD(T)methods in calculating the VIP for up to 613 molecular systems with available experimental measurements.The large-scale test calculations strongly showed that the CBS-QB3 model chemistry composite technique can be well recommended to calculate VIP from the perspectives of accuracy,economy and applicability.Notably,the VIP values of up to 7 molecules were identified to have the absolute errors of larger than 0.3 e V at all calculation levels,which have strong hints that their VIP experimental values should be re-investigated.

文摘In order to explore the leaching law of different elements in the composite cementitious system composed of ferrous extraction tailing of nickel slag(FETNS)and ordinary Portland cement(OPC),element leaching test under different influencing factors was designed with the aid of ICP-OES,XRD,and SEM-EDS.The experimental results show that,with the extension of leaching time,the continuous hydration reaction in the system enables the leaching amount of Si,Al,Mg,and Ca elements to show an overall downward trend.In the alkaline environment,the more sufficient hydration reaction consumes more soluble elements,resulting in a significantly smaller leaching amount than that in the neutral environment.Temperature is also an important factor affecting the leaching of elements.The rise of temperature promotes the dissolution of amorphous phases Si,Al,and Mg in the system,leading to increased leaching amount and higher consumption of C_(2)S and C_(3)S,generating more reaction products.In addition,the content and fineness of FETNS also have a significant effect on the element leaching of the composite cementitious system.More importantly,this paper clarifies the leaching safety of internal heavy metal elements when FETNS is used under the above conditions,which provides a scientific guarantee for the safe and efficient application of FETNS in building materials.

文摘To improve the wettability of Al metal matrix composites(Al-MMCs) by common filler metals,Al-12Si-xTi(x=0.1,0.5,1,3.0;mass fraction,%) system active ternary filler metals were prepared.It was demonstrated that although the added Ti existed within Ti(Al1-xSix)3(0≤x≤0.15) phase,the shear strength and shear fracture surface of the developed Al-12Si-xTi brazes were quite similar to those of traditional Al-12Si braze due to the presence of similar microstructure of Al-Si eutectic microstructure with large volume fraction.So,small Ti addition(~1%) did not make the active brazes brittle and hard compared with the conventional Al-12Si braze.The measured melting range of each Al-12Si-xTi foil was very similar,i.e.,580-590 ℃,because the composition was close to that of eutectic.For wettability improvement,with increasing Ti content,the interfacial gap between the Al2O3 reinforcement and filler metal(R/M) could be eliminated,and the amount of the remainder of the active fillers on the composite substrate decreased after sessile drop test at 610 ℃ for 30 min.So,the wettability improvement became easy to observe repeatedly with increasing Ti content.Additionally,the amount and size of Ti(AlSi)3 phase were sensitive to the Ti content(before brazing) and Si content(after brazing).

文摘Al2O3p-Al composites were synthesized using an in-situ reaction in the 80%Al-20%CuO (mass fraction) system. The effects of the CuO particle size on the synthesis temperature and microstructure of the composites were investigated by various methods. The results indicate that the CuO particle size has a significant effect on the temperature at which the complete reaction in the Al-CuO system occurs:the temperature is 200 ℃ lower in the Al-CuO system containing CuO particles with sizes less than 6μm than that containing CuO particles with sizes less than 100μm. The interfacial bonding between Al2O3 particles and Al is not complete when the temperature is below a critical value. The morphology of the Al2O3 particles varies from ribbon-like shape to near spherical shape when the temperature is above a critical value. These two critical temperatures are affected by the particle size of CuO, and the critical temperature of the sample containing CuO particles with sizes less than 6μm is 100 ℃ lower than that of the sample containing CuO particles with sizes less than 100μm.

文摘Internal thermal insulation composite system(ITICS)can be an important measure for the energy-saving retrofitting of buildings.However,ITICS may cause harmful effects on the hygrothermal performance of building envelopes.This work investigated the influence of the materials’hygric properties on the hygrothermal perfor-mance of a typical ITICS in different climate conditions in China.Two base wall materials,the traditional concrete and a new type aerated concrete,were tested and compared for their hygric properties firstly.The influence of the hygroscopicity of exterior plasters,the permeability of insulation materials and the climate conditions were then analyzed with WUFI simulations.The hygrothermal performance was evaluated with consideration of the total water content(TWC)of the walls and the moisture flux strength,the relative humidity(RH)and the mould growth risk at the interface between the base wall and the insulation layer(B-I interface).The numerical analysis implies that the TWC of internal insulated walls depends mainly on the hygroscopicity of exterior plaster and the wind-driven rain intensity.The upper limits for the water absorption coefficient of exterior plasters used in Bei-jing,Shanghai and Fuzhou are 1e-9,1e-10,1e-10 m^(2)/s respectively.When such limits are guaranteed,a vapour tight system created by using insulation materials with a large vapour resistance factor or adding a vapour barrier can improve the hygrothermal performance of ITICS,especially for concrete walls in cold climate.
