The microstructure contained columnar grains with (111) texture in the vertical plane (90° sample), while a large equiaxed grain with (100) texture was produced in the horizontal plane (0° sample). As for 45° sample, a large number of equiaxed grains and a few columnar grains with (111) texture can be observed. The sample produced at a 0° orientation demonstrates the highest tensile strength, whereas the 90° sample exhibits the greatest elongation. Conversely, the 45° sample displays the least favorable overall performance. As the tests temperature increased from room temperature to 600℃, the anisotropy rate of ultimate tensile strength, yield strength and ductility between 0° and 45° samples, decreased from 8.98 to 6.96%, 2.36 to 1.28%, 19.93 to 12.23%, as well as between 0° and 90° samples decreased from 4.87 to 4.03%, 11.88 to 7.21% and 14.11 to 6.89%, respectively, because of the recovery of oriented columnar grains.展开更多

For the purpose of facilitating data transmission, AaF relays are utilized to regulate signal communication between sensors and filters. Here, the randomly varying channel parameters are represented by a set of stochastic variables whose occurring probabilities are permitted to exhibit bounded uncertainty. Employing the spherical-radial cubature principle, a local filter under AaF relays is initially constructed. This construction ensures and minimizes an upper bound of the filtering error covariance by designing an appropriate filter gain. Subsequently, the local filters are fused through the application of the covariance intersection fusion rule. Furthermore, the uniform boundedness of the filtering error covariance's upper bound is investigated through establishing certain sufficient conditions. The effectiveness of the proposed CKFF scheme is ultimately validated via a simulation experiment concentrating on a three-phase induction machine.展开更多

The results indicated that a dense sample with a maximum relative density of 99.85% could be obtained by adjusting the LPBF process parameters. Incorporating TiB_(2) nanoparticles enhanced the powder's laser absorption rate, thereby raising the alloy's intrinsic heat treatment temperature and consequently facilitating the precipitation of Si and βʺ nanoparticles in the α-Al cells. Moreover, the rapid cooling process during LPBF resulted in numerous alloying elements with low-stacking fault energy dissolving in the α-Al matrix, thus promoting the formation of the 9R phase. After a 48 h direct aging treatment at 150℃, the strength of the alloy slightly increased due to the increase of nanoprecipitates. Both yield strength and ultimate tensile strength of the LPBF TiB_(2)/Al-Si-Mg-Zr alloy were significantly higher than that of other LPBF TiB_(2)-modified aluminum alloys with external addition.展开更多

文摘A novel dual-branch decoding fusion convolutional neural network model(DDFNet)specifically designed for real-time salient object detection(SOD)on steel surfaces is proposed.DDFNet is based on a standard encoder–decoder architecture.DDFNet integrates three key innovations:first,we introduce a novel,lightweight multi-scale progressive aggregation residual network that effectively suppresses background interference and refines defect details,enabling efficient salient feature extraction.Then,we propose an innovative dual-branch decoding fusion structure,comprising the refined defect representation branch and the enhanced defect representation branch,which enhance accuracy in defect region identification and feature representation.Additionally,to further improve the detection of small and complex defects,we incorporate a multi-scale attention fusion module.Experimental results on the public ESDIs-SOD dataset show that DDFNet,with only 3.69 million parameters,achieves detection performance comparable to current state-of-the-art models,demonstrating its potential for real-time industrial applications.Furthermore,our DDFNet-L variant consistently outperforms leading methods in detection performance.The code is available at https://github.com/13140W/DDFNet.
文摘This paper presents an enhanced version of the correlation-driven dual-branch feature decomposition framework(CDDFuse)for fusing low-and high-exposure images captured by the G400BSI sensor.We introduce a novel neural long-term memory(NLM)module into the CDDFuse architecture to improve feature extraction by leveraging persistent global feature representations across image sequences.The proposed method effectively preserves dynamic range and structural details,and is evaluated using a new metric,the ATEF dynamic range preservation index(ATEF-DRPI).Experimental results on a G400BSI dataset demonstrate superior fusion quality,with ATEF-DRPI scores of 0.90,a 12.5%improvement over that of the baseline CDDFuse(0.80),indicating better detail retention in bright and dark regions.This work advances image fusion techniques for extreme lighting conditions,offering improved performance for downstream vision tasks.

文摘The effect of drive laser wavelength on the growth of ablative Rayleigh–Taylor instability(ARTI)in inertial confinemen fusion(ICF)is studied with two-dimensional numerical simulations.The results show that in the plasma acceleration phase,shorter wavelengths lead to more efficien coupling between the laser and the kinetic energy of the implosion fluid Under the condition that the laser energy coupled to the implosion flui is constant,the ARTI growth rate decreases as the laser wavelength moves toward the extreme ultraviolet band,reaching its minimum value near λ=65 nm,and when the laser wavelength continuously moves toward the X-ray band,the ARTI growth rate increases rapidly.It is found that the results deviate from the theoretical ARTI growth rate.As the laser intensity benchmark increases,the position of the minimum ARTI growth rate shifts toward shorter wavelengths.As the initial sinusoidal perturbation wavenumber decreases,the position of the minimum ARTI growth rate shifts toward longer wavelengths.We believe that the conclusions drawn from the present simulations and analysis will help provide a better understanding of the ICF process and improve the theory of ARTI growth.

文摘Hydrodynamic instability growth at the deuterium-tritium(DT)fuel-ablator interface plays a critical role in determining the performance of inertial confinement fusion implosions.During the late stages of implosion,insufficient doping of the ablator material can result in highenergy X-ray preheat,which may trigger the development of a classical-like Rayleigh-Taylor instability(RTI)at the fuel-ablator interface.In implosion experiments at the Shenguang 100 kJ-level laser facility,the primary source of perturbation is the roughness of the inner DT ice interface.In this study,we propose an analytical model to describe the feed-out process of the initial roughness of the inner DT ice interface.The perturbation amplitude derived from this model serves as the initial seed for the late-time RTI during the acceleration phase.Our findings confirm the presence of classical-like RTI at the fuel-ablator interface.Numerical simulations conducted using a radiation hydrodynamic code validate the proposed analytical model and demonstrate the existence of a peak mode number in both the feed-out process and the classical-like RTI.It provides an alternative bridge between the current target fabrication limitations and the unexpected implosion performance.

文摘Infrared and visible image fusion technology integrates the thermal radiation information of infrared images with the texture details of visible images to generate more informative fused images.However,existing methods often fail to distinguish salient objects from background regions,leading to detail suppression in salient regions due to global fusion strategies.This study presents a mask-guided latent low-rank representation fusion method to address this issue.First,the GrabCut algorithm is employed to extract a saliency mask,distinguishing salient regions from background regions.Then,latent low-rank representation(LatLRR)is applied to extract deep image features,enhancing key information extraction.In the fusion stage,a weighted fusion strategy strengthens infrared thermal information and visible texture details in salient regions,while an average fusion strategy improves background smoothness and stability.Experimental results on the TNO dataset demonstrate that the proposed method achieves superior performance in SPI,MI,Qabf,PSNR,and EN metrics,effectively preserving salient target details while maintaining balanced background information.Compared to state-of-the-art fusion methods,our approach achieves more stable and visually consistent fusion results.The fusion code is available on GitHub at:https://github.com/joyzhen1/Image(accessed on 15 January 2025).

文摘Thunderstorm wind gusts are small in scale,typically occurring within a range of a few kilometers.It is extremely challenging to monitor and forecast thunderstorm wind gusts using only automatic weather stations.Therefore,it is necessary to establish thunderstorm wind gust identification techniques based on multisource high-resolution observations.This paper introduces a new algorithm,called thunderstorm wind gust identification network(TGNet).It leverages multimodal feature fusion to fuse the temporal and spatial features of thunderstorm wind gust events.The shapelet transform is first used to extract the temporal features of wind speeds from automatic weather stations,which is aimed at distinguishing thunderstorm wind gusts from those caused by synoptic-scale systems or typhoons.Then,the encoder,structured upon the U-shaped network(U-Net)and incorporating recurrent residual convolutional blocks(R2U-Net),is employed to extract the corresponding spatial convective characteristics of satellite,radar,and lightning observations.Finally,by using the multimodal deep fusion module based on multi-head cross-attention,the temporal features of wind speed at each automatic weather station are incorporated into the spatial features to obtain 10-minutely classification of thunderstorm wind gusts.TGNet products have high accuracy,with a critical success index reaching 0.77.Compared with those of U-Net and R2U-Net,the false alarm rate of TGNet products decreases by 31.28%and 24.15%,respectively.The new algorithm provides grid products of thunderstorm wind gusts with a spatial resolution of 0.01°,updated every 10minutes.The results are finer and more accurate,thereby helping to improve the accuracy of operational warnings for thunderstorm wind gusts.

文摘Magnetostrictive Fe-Ga alloys have captivated substantial focus in biomedical applications because of their exceptional transition efficiency and favorable cytocompatibility.Nevertheless,Fe-Ga alloys always exhibit frustrating magnetostriction coefficients when presented in bulk dimensions.It is well-established that the magnetostrictive performance of Fe-Ga alloys is intimately linked to their phase and crystal structures.In this study,various concentrations of boron(B)were doped into Fe_(81)Ga_(19) alloys via the laser-beam powder bed fusion(LPBF)technique to tailor the crystal and phase structures,thereby improving the magnetostrictive performance.The results revealed the capacity for quick solidification of the LPBF process in expediting the solid solution of B element,which increased both lattice distortion and dislocations within the Fe-Ga matrix.These factors contributed to an elevation in the density of the modified-D0_(3) phase structure.Moreover,the prepared Fe-Ga-B alloys also exhibited a(001)preferred grain orientation caused by the high thermal gradients during the LPBF process.As a result,a maximum magnetostriction coefficient of 105 ppm was achieved in the(Fe_(81)Ga_(19))_(98.5)B_(1.5) alloy.In alternating magnetic fields,all the LPBF-prepared alloys showed good dynamic magnetostriction response without visible hysteresis,while the(Fe_(81)Ga_(19))_(98.5)B_(1.5) alloy presented a notable enhancement of~30%in magnetostriction coefficient when compared with the Fe_(81)Ga_(19) alloy.Moreover.the(Fe_(81)Ga_(19))_(98.5)B_(1.5) alloy exhibited favorable biocompatibility and osteogenesis,as confirmed by increased alkaline phosphatase(ALP)activity and the formation of mineralized nodules.These findings suggest that the B-doped Fe-Ga alloys combined with the LPBF technique hold promise for the development of bulk magnetostrictive alloys that are applicable for bone repair applications.

文摘This work investigated the anisotropy tensile properties of Inconel 625 alloy fabricated by laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) under various tests temperature, focusing the anisotropy evolution during the high temperature. The microstructure contained columnar grains with (111) texture in the vertical plane (90° sample), while a large equiaxed grain with (100) texture was produced in the horizontal plane (0° sample). As for 45° sample, a large number of equiaxed grains and a few columnar grains with (111) texture can be observed. The sample produced at a 0° orientation demonstrates the highest tensile strength, whereas the 90° sample exhibits the greatest elongation. Conversely, the 45° sample displays the least favorable overall performance. As the tests temperature increased from room temperature to 600℃, the anisotropy rate of ultimate tensile strength, yield strength and ductility between 0° and 45° samples, decreased from 8.98 to 6.96%, 2.36 to 1.28%, 19.93 to 12.23%, as well as between 0° and 90° samples decreased from 4.87 to 4.03%, 11.88 to 7.21% and 14.11 to 6.89%, respectively, because of the recovery of oriented columnar grains.

文摘In this paper, the problem of cubature Kalman fusion filtering(CKFF) is addressed for multi-sensor systems under amplify-and-forward(AaF) relays. For the purpose of facilitating data transmission, AaF relays are utilized to regulate signal communication between sensors and filters. Here, the randomly varying channel parameters are represented by a set of stochastic variables whose occurring probabilities are permitted to exhibit bounded uncertainty. Employing the spherical-radial cubature principle, a local filter under AaF relays is initially constructed. This construction ensures and minimizes an upper bound of the filtering error covariance by designing an appropriate filter gain. Subsequently, the local filters are fused through the application of the covariance intersection fusion rule. Furthermore, the uniform boundedness of the filtering error covariance's upper bound is investigated through establishing certain sufficient conditions. The effectiveness of the proposed CKFF scheme is ultimately validated via a simulation experiment concentrating on a three-phase induction machine.

文摘To increase the strength of the laser powder-bed fusion (LPBF) Al-Si-based aluminum alloy, TiB_(2) ceramic particles were selected to be mixed with high-Mg content Al-Si-Mg-Zr powder, and then a novel TiB_(2)/Al-Si-Mg-Zr composite was fabricated using LPBF. The results indicated that a dense sample with a maximum relative density of 99.85% could be obtained by adjusting the LPBF process parameters. Incorporating TiB_(2) nanoparticles enhanced the powder's laser absorption rate, thereby raising the alloy's intrinsic heat treatment temperature and consequently facilitating the precipitation of Si and βʺ nanoparticles in the α-Al cells. Moreover, the rapid cooling process during LPBF resulted in numerous alloying elements with low-stacking fault energy dissolving in the α-Al matrix, thus promoting the formation of the 9R phase. After a 48 h direct aging treatment at 150℃, the strength of the alloy slightly increased due to the increase of nanoprecipitates. Both yield strength and ultimate tensile strength of the LPBF TiB_(2)/Al-Si-Mg-Zr alloy were significantly higher than that of other LPBF TiB_(2)-modified aluminum alloys with external addition.
