Especially in recent years, with the rapid development of composite additive manufacturing technology, the design optimization of variable stiffness of fiber-reinforced composite laminates has attracted widespread attention from scholars and industry. In these aerospace composite structures, numerous cutout panels and shells serve as access points for maintaining electrical, fuel, and hydraulic systems. The traditional fiber-reinforced composite laminate subtractive drilling manufacturing inevitably faces the problems of interlayer delamination, fiber fracture, and burr of the laminate. Continuous fiber additive manufacturing technology offers the potential for integrated design optimization and manufacturing with high structural performance. Considering the integration of design and manufacturability in continuous fiber additive manufacturing, the paper proposes linear and nonlinear filtering strategies based on the Normal Distribution Fiber Optimization (NDFO) material interpolation scheme to overcome the challenge of discrete fiber optimization results, which are difficult to apply directly to continuous fiber additive manufacturing. With minimizing structural compliance as the objective function, the proposed approach provides a strategy to achieve continuity of discrete fiber paths in the variable stiffness design optimization of composite laminates with regular and irregular holes. In the variable stiffness design optimization model, the number of candidate fiber laying angles in the NDFO material interpolation scheme is considered as design variable. The sensitivity information of structural compliance with respect to the number of candidate fiber laying angles is obtained using the analytical sensitivity analysis method. Based on the proposed variable stiffness design optimization method for complex perforated composite laminates, the numerical examples consider the variable stiffness design optimization of typical non-perforated and perforated composite laminates with circular, square, and irregular holes, and systematically discuss the number of candidate discrete fiber laying angles, discrete fiber continuous filtering strategies, and filter radius on structural compliance, continuity, and manufacturability. The optimized discrete fiber angles of variable stiffness laminates are converted into continuous fiber laying paths using a streamlined process for continuous fiber additive manufacturing. Meanwhile, the optimized non-perforated and perforated MBB beams after discrete fiber continuous treatment, are manufactured using continuous fiber co-extrusion additive manufacturing technology to verify the effectiveness of the variable stiffness fiber optimization framework proposed in this paper.展开更多

文摘In this paper, we have demonstrated an Er-doped ultrafast laser with a single mode fiber-gradient index multimode fiber-single mode fiber(SMF-GIMF-SMF, SMS) structure as saturable absorber(SA), which can generate not only stable single-pulse state, but also special mode-locked pulses with the characteristics of high energy and noisy behaviors at proper pump power and cavity polarization state. In addition, we have deeply investigated the real-time spectral evolutions of the mode-locked pulses through the dispersive Fourier transformation(DFT) technique. It can be found that the pulse regime can actually consist of a lot of small noise pulses with randomly varying intensities. We believe that these results will further enrich the nonlinear dynamical processes in the ultrafast lasers.

文摘Niobates are promising all-climate Li^(+)-storage anode material due to their fast charge transport,large specific capacities,and resistance to electrolyte reaction.However,their moderate unit-cellvolume expansion(generally 5%–10%)during Li^(+)storage causes unsatisfactory long-term cyclability.Here,“zero-strain”NiNb_(2)O_(6) fibers are explored as a new anode material with comprehensively good electrochemical properties.During Li^(+)storage,the expansion of electrochemical inactive NiO_(6) octahedra almost fully offsets the shrinkage of active NbO_(6) octahedra through reversible O movement.Such superior volume-accommodation capability of the NiO_(6) layers guarantees the“zero-strain”behavior of NiNb_(2)O_(6) in a broad temperature range(0.53%//0.51%//0.74%at 25//−10//60℃),leading to the excellent cyclability of the NiNb_(2)O_(6) fibers(92.8%//99.2%//91.1%capacity retention after 1000//2000//1000 cycles at 10C and 25//−10//60℃).This NiNb_(2)O_(6) material further exhibits a large reversible capacity(300//184//318 mAh g−1 at 0.1C and 25//−10//60℃)and outstanding rate performance(10 to 0.5C capacity percentage of 64.3%//50.0%//65.4%at 25//−10//60℃).Therefore,the NiNb_(2)O_(6) fibers are especially suitable for large-capacity,fast-charging,long-life,and all-climate lithium-ion batteries.
文摘Long-period fiber gratings have the advantages of small size,corrosion resistance,anti-electro-magnetic interference,and high sensitivity,making them widely used in biomedicine,the power industry,and aerospace.This paper develops a long-period fiber grating sensor based on periodic microchannels.First,a series of linear structures were etched in the cladding of a single-mode fiber by femtosecond laser microma-chining.Then,the laser-modified region was selectively eroded by selective chemical etching to obtain the periodic microchannel structure.Finally,the channels were filled with polydimethylsiloxane(PDMS)to im-prove the spectral quality.The experimental results show that the sensor has good sensitivity in the measure-ment of various parameters such as temperature,stress,refractive index(RI),and bending.It has a temperat-ure sensitivity of−55.19 pm/℃,a strain sensitivity of−3.19 pm/με,a maximum refractive index sensitivity of 540.28 nm/RIU,and a bending sensitivity of 2.65 dB/m^(-1).All of the measurement parameters show good lin-ear responses.The sensor has strong application prospects in the field of precision measurement and sensing.
文摘Soft polymer optical fiber(SPOF)has shown great potential in optical-based wearable and implantable biosensors due to its excellent mechanical properties and optical guiding characteristics.However,the multimodality characteristics of SPOF limit their integration with traditional fiber optic sensors.This article introduces for the first time a flexible fiber optic vibration sensor based on laser interference technology,which can be applied to vibration measurement under high stretch conditions.This sensor utilizes elastic optical fibers made of polydimethylsiloxane(PDMS)as sensing elements,combined with phase generating carrier technology,to achieve vibration measurement at 50−260 Hz within the stretch range of 0−42%.
文摘Aiming at the requirement for high-precision tilt monitoring in the field of structural health monitoring(SHM),this paper proposes a sensitivity-enhanced tilt sensor based on a femtosecond fiber Bragg grating(FBG).Firstly,structural design of the tilt sensor was conducted based on static mechanics principles.By positioning the FBG away from the beam’s neutral axis,linear strain enhancement in the FBG was achieved,thereby improving sensor sensitivity.The relationship between FBG strain,applied force,and the offset distance from the neutral axis was established,determining the optimal distance corresponding to maximum strain.Based on this optimization scheme,a prototype of the tilt sensor was designed,fabricated,and experimentally tested.Experimental results show that the FBG offset distance yielding maximum sensitivity is 4.4 mm.Within a tilt angle range of−30°to 30°,the sensor achieved a sensitivity of 129.95 pm/°and a linearity of 0.9997.Compared to conventional FBG-based tilt sensors,both sensitivity and linearity were significantly improved.Furthermore,the sensor demonstrated excellent repeatability(error<0.94%),creep resistance(error<0.30%),and temperature stability(error<0.90%).These results demonstrate the sensor’s excellent potential for SHM applications.The sensor has been successfully deployed in an underground pipeline project,conducting long-term monitoring of tilt and deformation in the steel support structures,further proving its value for engineering safety monitoring.
文摘In this paper,a conventional soliton(CS)mode-locked erbium-doped fiber(EDF)laser was de-veloped using MAX phase material(MAX-PM)Nb_(4)AlC_(3)as a saturable absorber(SA).First,the liquid phase exfoliation(LPE)method was utilized to prepare Nb_(4)AlC_(3)nanosheets,and then a piece of tapered fiber was adopted to fabricate Nb_(4)AlC_(3)-SA.It was found that the saturation intensity and modulation depth of the Nb_(4)AlC_(3)-SA are 2.02 MW/cm^(2)and 1.88%.Based on the Nb_(4)AlC_(3)-SA,a conventional soliton(CS)mode-locked EDF laser was achieved.The central wavelength,pulse duration,and pulse repetition rate were found to be 1565.65 nm,615.37 fs,and 24.63 MHz,respectively.The performance is competitive and particularly superior in terms of pulse duration.This study fully confirms that Nb_(4)AlC_(3)possesses marvellous nonlinear saturable absorption properties and opens new possibilities for further research on air-stable ultrafast photon-ic devices.
