We define inter-layer hierarchical random linear network codes (IHRLNC), which not only take the flexibility of intersession network coding for layer mixing but also consider the strict priority inherent in the layered source data. Furthermore, we propose the inter-layer hierarchical multicast (IHM), which performs IHRLNC in the network such that each sink can recover some source layers according to its individu- al capacity. To determine the optimal type of IHRLNC that should be performed on each edge in IHM, we formulate an optimization problem based on 0-1 integer linear programming, and propose a heuristic approach to approximate the optimal solution in polynomial time. Simulation results show that the proposed IHM can achieve throughput gains over the layered muhicast schemes.展开更多

The nanocomposite was obtained by using an ordered two-dimensional(2D) hexagonal mesoporous anatase 70 TiO2-30 SiO2-950 nanocomposite(crystallized at 950 °C for 2 h) as a precursor, NaO H as an etchant of SiO2 via a "creating mesopores in the pore walls" approach. Our strategy adopts mild conditions of creating pores such as diluted NaO H solution, appropriate temperature and solid/liquid ratio, etc. aiming at ensuring the integrities of mesopores architecture and anatase nanocrystals. XRD, TEM and N2 sorption techniques have been used to systematically investigate the physico-chemical properties of the nanocomposites. The results show that the intrawall mesopores are highly dense and uniform(average pore size 3.6 nm), and highly link the initial mesochannels in a 3D manner while retaining mesostructural integrity. There is no significant change to either crystallinity or size of the anatase nanocrystals before and after creating the intrawall mesopores. The photocatalytic degradation rates of rhodamine B(RhB, 0.303 min^–1) and methylene blue(MB, 0.757 min^–1) dyes on the resultant nanocomposite are very high, which are 5.1 and 5.3 times that of the precursor; even up to 16.5 and 24.1 times that of Degussa P25 photocatalyst, respectively. These results clearly demonstrate that the 3D interconnected mesopores structure plays an overwhelming role to the increments of activities. The 3D mesoporous anatase TiO2-SiO2 nanocomposite exhibits unexpected-high degradation activities to RhB and MB in the mesoporous metal oxide-based materials reported so far. Additionally, the nanocomposite is considerably stable and reusable. We believe that this method would pave the way for the preparation of other 3D highly interconnected mesoporous metal oxide-based materials with ultra-high performance.展开更多

文摘Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors(PMSMs)are widely employed in high-performance drive applications due to their superior efficiency and dynamic capabilities.However,their control remains challenging owing to nonlinear dynamics,parameter variations,and unmeasurable external disturbances,particularly load torquefluctuations.This study proposes an enhanced Interconnection and Damp-ing Assignment Passivity-Based Control(IDA-PBC)scheme,formulated within the port-controlled Hamiltonian(PCH)framework,to address these limitations.A nonlinear disturbance observer is embedded to estimate and compensate,in real time,for lumped mis-matched disturbances arising from parameter uncertainties and external loads.Additionally,aflatness-based control strategy is employed to generate the desired current references within the nonlinear drive system,ensuring accurate tracking of time-varying speed commands.This integrated approach preserves the system’s energy-based structure,enabling systematic stability analysis while enhancing robustness.The proposed control architecture also maintains low complexity with a limited number of tunable parameters,facilitating practical implementation.Simulation and experimental results under various operating conditions demonstrate the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed method.Comparative analysis with conventional proportional-integral(PI)control and standard IDA-PBC strategies confirms its capability to handle disturbances and maintain dynamic performance.

文摘This study focused on meeting the stringent stability requirements of tubular segmented-in-series solid oxide fuel cells(SOFCs) in reducing and oxidizing atmospheres.To address this challenge,a bi-layer perovskite ceramic interconnect was designed by controlling the oxygen partial pressure,because of the strong correlation between the conductivity of strontium-doped lanthanum titanate(LST) and the oxygen partial pressure.The LST powder was prepared using solid-phase and sol-gel methods,and their influence on particle size and sintering behavior was compared.LST/lanthanum strontium manganite(LSM) bi-layer ceramic interconnects with varying thicknesses were fabricated through screen printing and co-sintering.The results demonstrate favorable interfacial bonding and excellent chemical compatibility between the ceramic layers.The conductivity of the bi-layer interconnect exhibits a temperature-dependent behavior,peaking at 550℃.Simulation calculations and research findings validate that the co nductivity of the bi-layer interconnect is determined by the thickness of the LSM layer and the oxygen partial pressure at the interconnect interface.Optimal conductivity is achieved with a bilayer interconnect consisting of approximately 15 μm of LST and 4 μm of LSM.This can be attributed to the efficient regulation of oxygen partial pressure at the interface,effectively mitigating LSM decomposition caused by low oxygen partial pressure and the subsequent reduction in conductivity.These results provide valuable fundamental data and methodology for the development of high-performance interconnects for tubular segmented-in-series SOFCs.

文摘In this article, we report the preparation of a three-dimensional(3D) interconnected mesoporous anatase TiO2-SiO2 nanocomposite. The nanocomposite was obtained by using an ordered two-dimensional(2D) hexagonal mesoporous anatase 70 TiO2-30 SiO2-950 nanocomposite(crystallized at 950 °C for 2 h) as a precursor, NaO H as an etchant of SiO2 via a "creating mesopores in the pore walls" approach. Our strategy adopts mild conditions of creating pores such as diluted NaO H solution, appropriate temperature and solid/liquid ratio, etc. aiming at ensuring the integrities of mesopores architecture and anatase nanocrystals. XRD, TEM and N2 sorption techniques have been used to systematically investigate the physico-chemical properties of the nanocomposites. The results show that the intrawall mesopores are highly dense and uniform(average pore size 3.6 nm), and highly link the initial mesochannels in a 3D manner while retaining mesostructural integrity. There is no significant change to either crystallinity or size of the anatase nanocrystals before and after creating the intrawall mesopores. The photocatalytic degradation rates of rhodamine B(RhB, 0.303 min^–1) and methylene blue(MB, 0.757 min^–1) dyes on the resultant nanocomposite are very high, which are 5.1 and 5.3 times that of the precursor; even up to 16.5 and 24.1 times that of Degussa P25 photocatalyst, respectively. These results clearly demonstrate that the 3D interconnected mesopores structure plays an overwhelming role to the increments of activities. The 3D mesoporous anatase TiO2-SiO2 nanocomposite exhibits unexpected-high degradation activities to RhB and MB in the mesoporous metal oxide-based materials reported so far. Additionally, the nanocomposite is considerably stable and reusable. We believe that this method would pave the way for the preparation of other 3D highly interconnected mesoporous metal oxide-based materials with ultra-high performance.
