A two-dimensional sheet made from small glass beads or emery powder was formed by the free-falling device through a long slit in the test chamber evacuated down to about 35 Pa. A polycarbonate projectile of a hemi-sphere-cylinder or sphere shape with the mass and diameter about 4 g and 25 mm, respectively, was launched at the velocity up to 430 m/s, and the phenomena were observed by the high-speed camera at 20,000 fps. From a series of images, the bow-shock-wave-like laterally facing U-shaped pattern over the projectile and the absence of particles in the trail behind it were clearly seen. At the impact of the particles on the projectile surface, fine grains were formed due to the destructive collision and injected outward from the projectile. The images obtained by different lighting methods including the laser light sheet were compared. The effects of the particle diameter, its material and the impact velocity were also investigated.展开更多

Slender projectiles...For application to exploration under the surface of icy objects in the solar system, the penetration of an impact probe into an icy target was experimentally simulated by using the ballistic range. Slender projectiles with a cylindrical body and various nose shapes were tested at the impact velocity 130 - 420 m/s. The motion of the penetrator, fragmentation of ice and crater forming were observed by the high-speed camera. It revealed that the crown-shaped ejection was made for a short time after the impact and then the outward normal jet-like stream of ice pieces continued for much longer time. The concave shape of the crater was successfully visualized by pouring the plaster into it. The two-stage structure, the pit and the spall, was clearly confirmed. The rim was not formed around the crater. Observation of the crater surface and the ice around the trace of the penetrator shows that both crushing into smaller ice pieces and recompression into ice blocks are caused by the forward motion of the penetrator. In case of a body with a flow-through duct, ice pieces entering the inlet at the nose tip were ejected from the tail, resulting in relaxation of the impact force. The correlation of the penetration distance and the crater diameter with the impact velocity was investigated.展开更多

文摘Based on the investigation of mechanical response and microstructure evolution of a commercial 7003 aluminum alloy under high-speed impact,a new simple and effective method was proposed to determine the critical strain required for the nucleation of adiabatic shear band(ASB).The deformation results of cylindrical and hat-shaped samples show that the critical strain required for ASB nucleation corresponds to the strain at the first local minimum after peak stress on the first derivative curve of true stress−true strain.The method of determining the critical strain for the nucleation of ASB through the first derivative of the flow stress curve is named the first derivative method.The proposed first derivative method is not only applicable to the 7003 aluminum alloy,but also to other metal materials,such as commercial purity titanium,WY-100 steel,and AM80 magnesium alloy.This proves that it has strong universality.

文摘Purpose–The bridge expansion joint(BEJ)is a key device for accommodating spatial displacement at the beam end,and for providing vertical support for running trains passing over the gap between the main bridge and the approach bridge.For long-span railway bridges,it must also be coordinated with rail expansion joint(REJ),which is necessary to accommodate the expansion and contraction of,and reducing longitudinal stress in,the rails.The main aim of this study is to present analysis of recent developments in the research and application of BEJs in high-speed railway(HSR)long-span bridges in China,and to propose a performance-based integral design method for BEJs used with REJs,from both theoretical and engineering perspectives.Design/methodology/approach–The study first presents a summary on the application and maintenance of BEJs in HSR long-span bridges in China representing an overview of their state of development.Results of a survey of typical BEJ faults were analyzed,and field testing was conducted on a railway cable-stayed bridge in order to obtain information on the major mechanical characteristics of its BEJ under train load.Based on the above,a performance-based integral design method for BEJs with maximum expansion range 1600 mm(±800 mm),was proposed,covering all stages from overall conceptual design to consideration of detailed structural design issues.The performance of the novel BEJ design thus derived was then verified via theoretical analysis under different scenarios,full-scale model testing,and field testing and commissioning.Findings–Two major types of BEJs,deck-type and through-type,are used in HSR long-span bridges in China.Typical BEJ faults were found to mainly include skewness of steel sleepers at the bridge gap,abnormally large longitudinal frictional resistance,and flexural deformation of the scissor mechanisms.These faults influence BEJ functioning,and thus adversely affect track quality and train running performance at the beam end.Due to their simple and integral structure,deck-type BEJs with expansion range 1200 mm(±600 mm)or less have been favored as a solution offering improved operational conditions,and have emerged as a standard design.However,when the expansion range exceeds the above-mentioned value,special design work becomes necessary.Therefore,based on engineering practice,a performance-based integral design method for BEJs used with REJs was proposed,taking into account four major categories of performance requirements,i.e.,mechanical characteristics,train running quality,durability and insulation performance.Overall BEJ design must mainly consider component strength and the overall stiffness of BEJ;the latter factor in particular has a decisive influence on train running performance at the beam end.Detailed BEJ structural design must stress minimization of the frictional resistance of its sliding surface.The static and dynamic performance of the newlydesigned BEJ with expansion range 1600 mm have been confirmed to be satisfactory,via numerical simulation,full-scale model testing,and field testing and commissioning.Originality/value–This research provides a broad overview of the status of BEJs with large expansion range in HSR long-span bridges in China,along with novel insights into their design.
文摘Objective The study of medicine formulas is a core component of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM),yet traditional learning methods often lack interactivity and contextual understanding,making it challenging for beginners to grasp the intricate composition rules of formulas.To address this gap,we introduce Formula-S,a situated visualization method for TCM formula learning in augmented reality(AR)and evaluate its performance.This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of Formula-S in enhancing TCM formula learning for beginners by comparing it with traditional text-based formula learning and web-based visualization.Methods Formula-S is an interactive AR tool designed for TCM formula learning,featuring three modes(3D,Web,and Table).The dataset included TCM formulas and herb properties extracted from authoritative references,including textbook and the SymMap database.In Formula-S,the hierarchical visualization of the formulas as herbal medicine compositions,is linked to the multidimensional herb attribute visualization and embedded in the real world,where real herb samples are presented.To evaluate its effectiveness,a controlled study(n=30)was conducted.Participants who had no formal TCM knowledge were tasked with herbal medicine identification,formula composition,and recognition.In the study,participants interacted with the AR tool through HoloLens 2.Data were collected on both task performance(accuracy and response time)and user experience,with a focus on task efficiency,accuracy,and user preference across the different learning modes.Results The situated visualization method of Formula-S had comparable accuracy to other methods but shorter response time for herbal formula learning tasks.Regarding user experience,our new approach demonstrated the highest system usability and lowest task load,effectively reducing cognitive load and allowing users to complete tasks with greater ease and efficiency.Participants reported that Formula-S enhanced their learning experience through its intuitive interface and immersive AR environment,suggesting this approach offers usability advantages for TCM education.Conclusions The situated visualization method in Formula-S offers more efficient and accurate searching capabilities compared to traditional and web-based methods.Additionally,it provides superior contextual understanding of TCM formulas,making it a promising new solution for TCM learning.

文摘With the development of anti-virus technology,malicious documents have gradually become the main pathway of Advanced Persistent Threat(APT)attacks,therefore,the development of effective malicious document classifiers has become particularly urgent.Currently,detection methods based on document structure and behavioral features encounter challenges in feature engineering,these methods not only have limited accuracy,but also consume large resources,and usually can only detect documents in specific formats,which lacks versatility and adaptability.To address such problems,this paper proposes a novel malicious document detection method-visualizing documents as GGE images(Grayscale,Grayscale matrix,Entropy).The GGE method visualizes the original byte sequence of the malicious document as a grayscale image,the information entropy sequence of the document as an entropy image,and at the same time,the grayscale level co-occurrence matrix and the texture and spatial information stored in it are converted into grayscale matrix image,and fuses the three types of images to get the GGE color image.The Convolutional Block Attention Module-EfficientNet-B0(CBAM-EfficientNet-B0)model is then used for classification,combining transfer learning and applying the pre-trained model on the ImageNet dataset to the feature extraction process of GGE images.As shown in the experimental results,the GGE method has superior performance compared with other methods,which is suitable for detecting malicious documents in different formats,and achieves an accuracy of 99.44%and 97.39%on Portable Document Format(PDF)and office datasets,respectively,and consumes less time during the detection process,which can be effectively applied to the task of detecting malicious documents in real-time.

文摘Ventilation systems are critical for improving the cabin environment in high-speed trains,and their interest has increased significantly.However,whether air supply non-verticality deteriorates the cabin air environment,and the flow mechanism behind it and the degree of deterioration are not known.This study first analyzes the interaction between deflection angle and cabin flow field characteristics and ventilation performance.The results revealed that the interior temperature and pollutant concentration decreased slightly with increasing deflection angle,but resulted in significant deterioration of thermal comfort and air quality.This is evidenced by an increase in both draught rate and non-uniformity coefficient,an increase in the number of measurement points that do not satisfy the micro-wind speed and temperature difference requirements by about 5% and 15%,respectively,and an increase in longitudinal penetration of pollutants by a factor of about 5 and the appearance of locking regions at the ends of cabin.The results also show that changing the deflection pattern only affects the region of deterioration and does not essentially improve this deterioration.This study can provide reference and help for the ventilation design of high-speed trains.

文摘High-speed trains operating in freezing rain are highly susceptible to severe ice accretion in the pantograph region,which compromises both power transmission efficiency and dynamic performance.To elucidate the underlying mechanisms of this phenomenon,an Euler-Euler multiphase flow model was employed to simulate droplet impingement and collection on the pantograph surface,while a glaze-ice formation model incorporating wall film dynamics was used to capture the subsequent growth of ice.The effects of key parameters—including liquid water content,ambient temperature,train velocity,and droplet diameter—on the amount and morphology of ice were systematically investigated.The results show that ice accumulation intensifies with increasing liquid water content decreasing ambient temperature,and rising train speed.In contrast,larger droplet diameters reduce the overall ice mass but promote localized accretion on major structural elements.This behavior arises because larger droplets,with greater inertia,are less susceptible to entrainment by airflow into the pantograph's base region.During extended operation,substantial ice buildup develops on the pantograph head and upper and lower arms,severely impairing current collection from the overhead line and hindering the pantograph's lifting and lowering motions.

文摘High-speed imaging is crucial for understanding the transient dynamics of the world,but conventional frame-by-frame video acquisition is limited by specialized hardware and substantial data storage requirements.We introduce“SpeedShot,”a computational imaging framework for efficient high-speed video imaging.SpeedShot features a low-speed dual-camera setup,which simultaneously captures two temporally coded snapshots.Cross-referencing these two snapshots extracts a multiplexed temporal gradient image,producing a compact and multiframe motion representation for video reconstruction.Recognizing the unique temporal-only modulation model,we propose an explicable motion-guided scale-recurrent transformer for video decoding.It exploits cross-scale error maps to bolster the cycle consistency between predicted and observed data.Evaluations on both simulated datasets and real imaging setups demonstrate SpeedShot’s effectiveness in video-rate up-conversion,with pronounced improvement over video frame interpolation and deblurring methods.The proposed framework is compatible with commercial low-speed cameras,offering a versatile low-bandwidth alternative for video-related applications,such as video surveillance and sports analysis.

文摘Electric current heat treatment is an innovative technique to improve microstructures and mechanical properties of metallic materials.The microstructures and mechanical properties of a powder metallurgy high-speed steel(PM-HSS)treated by electric current heat treatment and traditional heat treatment are comparatively investigated.Results showed that after austenitizing at 1130°C,the structure of PM-HSS sample composed of ferrite matrix,M_(6)C,M_(23)C_(6),and MC carbides,transformed into a martensite matrix accompanied by M_(6)C and MC carbides.Compared to the traditional austenitizing at 1130℃ for 30 min,the electric current austenitizing at 1130℃ for 5 min dissolved more carbides,resulting in a greater solid solution of alloying elements in the matrix.Further traditional triple tempering led to carbide coarsening,whereas electric current triple tempering promoted the carbide dissolution.Notably,the dissolution of more carbides resulted in a higher C content in the martensite matrix of HSS treated by electric current,significantly promoting the formation of nanotwins(5-20 nm in width).The electric current triple tempering sample exhibited a yield strength of 3097 MPa,compressive strength of 5016 MPa,and a fracture strain of 30.0%,outperforming the traditional triple tempering sample by nearly 600 MPa in yield strength.Analysis revealed that this significant strengthening was primarily attributed to nanotwin formation and solid solution strengthening caused by carbide dissolution.

文摘High-speed railway bridges are essential components of any railway transportation system that should keep adequate levels of serviceability and safety.In this context,drive-by methodologies have emerged as a feasible and cost-effective monitor-ing solution for detecting damage on railway bridges while minimizing train operation interruptions.Moreover,integrating advanced sensor technologies and machine learning algorithms has significantly enhanced structural health monitoring(SHM)for bridges.Despite being increasingly used in traditional SHM applications,studies using autoencoders within drive-by methodologies are rare,especially in the railway field.This study presents a novel approach for drive-by damage detection in HSR bridges.The methodology relies on acceleration records collected from multiple bridge crossings by an operational train equipped with onboard sensors.Log-Mel spectrogram features derived from the acceleration records are used together with sparse autoencoders for computing statistical distribution-based damage indexes.Numerical simulations were performed on a 3D vehicle-track-bridge interaction system model implemented in Matlab to evaluate the robustness and effectiveness of the proposed approach,considering several damage scenarios,vehicle speeds,and environmental and operational variations,such as multiple track irregularities and varying measurement noise.The results show that the pro-posed approach can successfully detect damages,as well as characterize their severity,especially for very early-stage dam-ages.This demonstrates the high potential of applying Mel-frequency damage-sensitive features associated with machine learning algorithms in the drive-by condition assessment of high-speed railway bridges.
文摘Purpose–Regarding that Ultraviolet radiation,pollutant adsorption,and environmental changes may be the main reasons for the aging and yellowing on windshield rubber in high-speed trains,countermeasures are proposed to solve the aging and yellowing of windshield rubber and reduce the adverse effects caused by rubber yellowing.Design/methodology/approach–Scanning electron microscopy(SEM)and energy dispersive spectroscopy(EDS)were used to test the yellowed windshield rubber.Aging tests,including UVaging,natural aging and salt spray aging,were conducted to analyze the effects of aging on the windshield rubber.Different cleaning agents were selected to soak the windshield rubber,and the quality,hardness,and surface appearance of the rubber samples were tested.Findings–After UV aging,antioxidants migrated to the surface of the windshield rubber,but due to oxidation failure,they could not capture free radicals,leading to continued oxidation reactions within the material and resulting in yellowing of the rubber in a short period of time.Originality/value–Cleaning agents have a minimal impact on windshield rubber,UV aging has the greatest impact and natural aging is a gradual and slow deterioration process.Through daily deep cleaning and maintenance with protective agents at regular intervals,the deterioration of windshield rubber yellowing in high-speed trains can be effectively suppressed.
文摘Purpose–This paper investigates how high-speed rail(HSR)influences socioeconomic inequality by providing the first systematic bibliometric review of research trends,methodological approaches and thematic structures.It examines whether HSR fosters balanced regional development or reinforces spatial disparities.Design/methodology/approach–Using the Bibliometrix R package,237 records were retrieved from the Web of Science(1985–2024).Citation indicators,keyword co-occurrence and collaboration networks were combined with natural language processing(NLP)to classify studies by territorial scale,methodology,economic variables and inequality outcomes.Findings–The paper offers the first structured overview of how the literature conceptualizes the link between HSR and inequality.It highlights persistent gaps–scarcity of city-level analyses,limited socioeconomic indicators and reliance on Chinese case studies–providing a foundation for more comparative and interdisciplinary research.Originality/value–This paper contributes by offering a structured overview of how the literature has conceptualized and measured the relationship between HSR and inequality.By identifying persistent research gaps–such as the scarcity of city-level analyses,limited use of socioeconomic indicators,and overreliance on Chinese case studies–it provides a foundation for more comparative and interdisciplinary approaches.The study informs policymakers and researchers on how to design future infrastructure projects that balance efficiency with equity.
