To achieve realtime crack monitoring of aircraft metal structures in the course of ser vice, a new crack monitoring method is proposed based on Cu coating sensor and electrical poten tial difference principle. Firstly, insulation treatment process was used to prepare a dielectric layer on structural substrate, such as an anodizing layer on 2AI2T4 aluminum alloy substrate, and then a Cu coating crack monitoring sensor was deposited on the structure fatigue critical parts by pulsed bias arc ion plating technology. Secondly, the damage consistency of the Cu coating sensor and 2A12T4 aluminum alloy substrate was investigated by static tensile experiment and fatigue test. The results show that strain values of the coating sensor and the 2A 12T4 aluminum alloy substrate measured by strain gauges are highly coincident in static tensile experiment and the sensor has excel lent fatigue damage consistency with the substrate. Thirdly, the fatigue performance discrepancy between samples with the coating sensor and original samples was investigated. The result shows that there is no obvious negative influence on the fatigue performance of the 2A12T4 aluminum alloy after preparing the Cu coating sensor on its surface. Finally, crack monitoring experiment was carried out with the Cu coating sensor. The experimental results indicate that the sensor is sensitive to crack, and crack origination and propagation can be monitored effectively through analyzing the change of electrical potential values of the coating sensor.展开更多

Hall sensors have the advantages of low cost and high reliability, but the positioning accuracy is low. Motors with Hall sensors are typically controlled by six-step commutation algorithm, which brings high torque ripple. This paper studies the high-performance driving and braking control of the in-wheel permanent magnetic synchronous motor （PMSM） based on low-resolution Hall sensors. Field oriented control （FOC） based on Hall-effect sensors is developed to reduce the torque ripple. The positioning accuracy of the Hall sensors is improved by interpolation between two consecutive Hall signals using the estimated motor speed. The position error from the misalignment of the Hall sensors is compensated by the precise calibration of Hall transition timing. The braking control algorithms based on six-step commutation and FOC are studied. Two variants of the six-step commutation braking control, namely, half-bridge commutation and full-bridge commutation, are discussed and compared, which shows that the full-bridge commutation could better explore the potential of the back electro-motive forces （EMF）, thus can deliver higher efficiency and smaller current ripple. The FOC braking is analyzed with the phasor diagrams. At a given motor speed, the motor turns from the regenerative braking mode into the plug braking mode if the braking torque exceeds a certain limit, which is proportional to the motor speed. Tests in the dynamometer show that a smooth control could be realized by FOC driving control and the highest efficiency and the smallest current ripple could be achieved by FOC braking control, compared to six-step commutation braking control. Therefore, FOC braking is selected as the braking control algorithm for electric vehicles. The proposed research ensures a good motor control performance while maintaining low cost and high reliability.展开更多

In addition, a novel idle optimization of ICE strategy is implemented to obtain the optimal idle operating point of the ICE and corresponding optimal parking generation power of the EM using the view of the novel SSO of ICE strategy. Simulations results show that potential fuel economy improvement is achieved relative to the conventional one which only optimized the ICE efficiency by the novel SSO of ICE strategy, and fuel consumption per voltage increment decreases a lot during the parking charge by the novel idle optimization of ICE strategy.展开更多

文摘Various novel conjugated polymers(CPs)have been developed for organic photodetectors(OPDs),but their application to practical image sensors such as X-ray,R/G/B,and fingerprint sensors is rare.In this article,we report the entire process from the synthesis and molecular engineering of novel CPs to the development of OPDs and fingerprint image sensors.We synthesized six benzo[1,2-d:4,5-d’]bis(oxazole)(BBO)-based CPs by modifying the alkyl side chains of the CPs.Several relationships between the molecular structure and the OPD performance were revealed,and increasing the number of linear octyl side chains on the conjugated backbone was the best way to improve Jph and reduce Jd in the OPDs.The optimized CP demonstrated promising OPD performance with a responsivity(R)of 0.22 A/W,specific detectivity(D^(*))of 1.05×10^(13)Jones at a bias of-1 V,rising/falling response time of 2.9/6.9μs,and cut-off frequency(f_(-3dB))of 134 kHz under collimated 530 nm LED irradiation.Finally,a fingerprint image sensor was fabricated by stacking the POTB1-based OPD layer on the organic thin-film transistors(318 ppi).The image contrast caused by the valleys and ridges in the fingerprints was obtained as a digital signal.

文摘A new Ag/AgCl sensor for measuring marine electric fields was prepared and characterized through electrochemical methods and scanning electron microscopy.Its performance was evaluated in both laboratory and deep-water settings.The study indicates that the double-pulse electrodeposition method is advantageous for producing Ag/AgCl sensors that maintain excellent stability over time.During a 20-day continuous stability test,the potential difference of the sensor consistently remained between -24.76μV and 62.07μV,with a minimum potential difference drift of 2.77μV per 24 h.All sensors accurately detected artificial signals in both the time and frequency domains,and their responses were consistent with one another.The minimum noise level of the sensor was 0.59 nV(√Hz)^(-1)@1 Hz.The sensor performed well in high-precision electric field measurements at a depth of approximately 2800 m in the South China Sea.The high stability and low noise level of the sensor make it an effective tool for detecting electrical conductivity structures beneath the seafloor.

文摘Data-driven deep learning modeling has been increasingly applied to quality prediction in complex chemical processes.However,the data show complex temporal features due to different residence times and strong coupling relationships among chemical entities.This study proposes a multi-scale temporal feature extraction module to extract local dynamic temporal features across different time scales and combines it with long short-term memory(LSTM)networks to capture global temporal patterns,thereby taking full advantage of available data.In addition,variable-wise channel attention is integrated into the model to enhance attention on the essential parts of the feature maps and improve predictive performance.Furthermore,by analyzing the attention weights,the model quickly identifies the key variables that significantly affect the predictions.Finally,the model is applied to a real corn starch liquefaction process and achieves an accurate product quality prediction with an R^(2) value of 0.9392,which represents a 4%to 9%improvement over traditional models and demonstrates the superiority of the proposed approach.

文摘Abstract Advanced crack monitoring technique is the cornerstone of aircraft structural health monitoring. To achieve realtime crack monitoring of aircraft metal structures in the course of ser vice, a new crack monitoring method is proposed based on Cu coating sensor and electrical poten tial difference principle. Firstly, insulation treatment process was used to prepare a dielectric layer on structural substrate, such as an anodizing layer on 2AI2T4 aluminum alloy substrate, and then a Cu coating crack monitoring sensor was deposited on the structure fatigue critical parts by pulsed bias arc ion plating technology. Secondly, the damage consistency of the Cu coating sensor and 2A12T4 aluminum alloy substrate was investigated by static tensile experiment and fatigue test. The results show that strain values of the coating sensor and the 2A 12T4 aluminum alloy substrate measured by strain gauges are highly coincident in static tensile experiment and the sensor has excel lent fatigue damage consistency with the substrate. Thirdly, the fatigue performance discrepancy between samples with the coating sensor and original samples was investigated. The result shows that there is no obvious negative influence on the fatigue performance of the 2A12T4 aluminum alloy after preparing the Cu coating sensor on its surface. Finally, crack monitoring experiment was carried out with the Cu coating sensor. The experimental results indicate that the sensor is sensitive to crack, and crack origination and propagation can be monitored effectively through analyzing the change of electrical potential values of the coating sensor.

文摘Resolvers are normally employed for rotor positioning in motors for electric vehicles, but resolvers are expensive and vulnerable to vibrations. Hall sensors have the advantages of low cost and high reliability, but the positioning accuracy is low. Motors with Hall sensors are typically controlled by six-step commutation algorithm, which brings high torque ripple. This paper studies the high-performance driving and braking control of the in-wheel permanent magnetic synchronous motor （PMSM） based on low-resolution Hall sensors. Field oriented control （FOC） based on Hall-effect sensors is developed to reduce the torque ripple. The positioning accuracy of the Hall sensors is improved by interpolation between two consecutive Hall signals using the estimated motor speed. The position error from the misalignment of the Hall sensors is compensated by the precise calibration of Hall transition timing. The braking control algorithms based on six-step commutation and FOC are studied. Two variants of the six-step commutation braking control, namely, half-bridge commutation and full-bridge commutation, are discussed and compared, which shows that the full-bridge commutation could better explore the potential of the back electro-motive forces （EMF）, thus can deliver higher efficiency and smaller current ripple. The FOC braking is analyzed with the phasor diagrams. At a given motor speed, the motor turns from the regenerative braking mode into the plug braking mode if the braking torque exceeds a certain limit, which is proportional to the motor speed. Tests in the dynamometer show that a smooth control could be realized by FOC driving control and the highest efficiency and the smallest current ripple could be achieved by FOC braking control, compared to six-step commutation braking control. Therefore, FOC braking is selected as the braking control algorithm for electric vehicles. The proposed research ensures a good motor control performance while maintaining low cost and high reliability.

文摘Aircraft engine component and sensor fault detection and isolation approach was proposed,which included fault type detection module and component-sensor simultaneous fault isolation module.The approach can not only distinguish among sensor fault,component fault and component-sensor simultaneous fault,but also isolate and locate sensor fault and the type of engine component fault when the engine component fault and the sensor faults occur simultaneously.The double-threshold mechanism has been proposed,in which the fault diagnostic threshold changed with the sensor type and the engine condition,and it greatly improved the accuracy and robustness of sensor fault diagnosis system.Simulation results show that the approach proposed can diagnose and isolate the sensor and engine component fault with improved accuracy.It effectively improves the fault diagnosis ability of aircraft engine.

文摘A novel steady-state optimization （SSO） of internal combustion engine （ICE） strategy is proposed to maximize the efficiency of the overall powertrain for hybrid electric vehicles, in which the ICE efficiency, the efficiencies of the electric motor （EM） and the energy storage device are all explicitly taken into account. In addition, a novel idle optimization of ICE strategy is implemented to obtain the optimal idle operating point of the ICE and corresponding optimal parking generation power of the EM using the view of the novel SSO of ICE strategy. Simulations results show that potential fuel economy improvement is achieved relative to the conventional one which only optimized the ICE efficiency by the novel SSO of ICE strategy, and fuel consumption per voltage increment decreases a lot during the parking charge by the novel idle optimization of ICE strategy.
