Results showed that the net-like Mg_(17)Al_(12) disappeared on the surface of AZ91 Mg alloy after irradiation by HCPEB, which was instead of supersaturated Al element on the surface. Nevertheless, the application of HCPEB also led to the formation of crater-like and groove-like structures as well as micro-cracks on the surface of AZ91 Mg alloy. After HCPEB treatment by 3, 5 and 10 pulses, the AZ91 Mg alloy exhibited better corrosion resistance.However, the increasing amount of micro-cracks reduced the anti-corrosive properties of AZ91 Mg alloy as the pulse increased to 20 and 30.展开更多

Two kinds of substrate materials were examined to show this effect. The first sample was a pure Al metal pre-coated with fine carbon powders prior to the bombardment, and the second alloy is the D2-Crl2MolVl mould steel pre-coated with Cr, Ti, and TiN powders. The surface elements diffuse about several micrometers into the substrate materials only after several bombardments. Tribological behaviors of these samples were characterized and significant improvement in wear resistance was found. Finally, a TEM analysis reveals the presence of stress waves generated by coupled thermal and stress fields, which was considered as the main cause of the enhanced properties.展开更多

Electron probe micro-analysis（EPMA）,grazing incidence X-ray diffraction analysis（GIXRD）,transmission electron microscopy（TEM）, and nanoindentation were used to investigate the characterization of Ti–Al surface alloy. The experimental results show that the thickness of alloy layer is ＊3 lm, and the content of Al in the ＊1 lm thickness surface layer is ＊60 at%. The tetragonal TiAl and TiAl2intermetallics were synthesized at the top surface, which have nanocrystalline structure.The main phase formed in the ＊2.5 lm thick surface is TiAl, and there are few TiAl2and Ti3Al phase for the alloy.Dislocation is enhanced in the alloyed layer. The nanohardness of Ti–Al surface alloy increased significantly compared with a-Ti substrate due to the nanostructure and enhanced dislocation. Since the e-beam remelted repeatedly, the Ti–Al surface alloy mixed sufficiently with Ti substrate. Moreover, there is no obvious boundary between the alloyed layer and substrate.展开更多

We modeled the Zeta converter under continuous conduction mode operation. We derived a switching control law that brings the output voltage to the desired level. Due to infinite switching occurring at the desired level, we enhanced the switching control law by allowing a sizeable output voltage ripple. We derived mathematical models that allow one to choose the desired switching frequency. In practice, the existence of the non-ideal properties of the Zeta converter results in steady-state output voltage error. By analyzing the power loss in the zeta converter, we proposed an improved switching control law that eliminates the steady-state output voltage error. The effectiveness of the proposed method is illustrated with simulation results.展开更多

In sharp contrast to previous works, the considered systems possess two important characteristics: (i) The uncertain nonlinear terms meet the linearly unmeasurable-states dependent growth with the growth rate being an unknown function of the input and output. (ii) There exist input matching uncertainty and unknown measurement sensitivity. By introducing a single dynamic gain and employing a cleverly devised event-triggering mechanism (ETM), we design a new gain-based event-triggered output-feedback controller, which globally regulates all states of the considered systems and maintains global boundedness of the closed-loop system. Furthermore, the estimation of input matching uncertainty achieves convergence towards its actual value, and Zeno behavior does not happen. Two simulation examples including a practical one show that the proposed approach is effective.展开更多

文摘Fueled by the increasing imperative for sustainable energy solutions and the burgeoning emphasis on health awareness,self-powered techniques have undergone notable strides in advancement.Triboelectric nanogenerators(TENGs)stand out as a prominent device capitalizing on the principles of triboelectrification and electrostatic induction to generate electricity or electrical signals.In efforts to augment the electrical output performance of TENGs and broaden their range of applications,researchers have endeavored to refine materials,surface morphology,and structural design.Among them,physical morphological modifications play a pivotal role in enhancing the electrical properties of TENGs by increasing the contact surface area,which can be achieved by building micro-/nano-structures on the surface or inside the friction material.In this review,we summarize the common morphologies of TENGs,categorize the morphologies into surface and internal structures,and elucidate their roles in enhancing the electric output performance of devices.Moreover,we systematically classify the methodologies employed for morphological preparation into physical and chemical approaches,thereby furnishing a comprehensive survey of the diverse techniques.Subsequently,typical applications of TENGs with special morphology divided by energy harvesting and self-powered sensors are presented.Finally,an overview of the challenges and future trajectories pertinent to TENGs is conducted.Through this endeavor,the aim of this article is to catalyze the evolution of further strategies for enhancing performance of TENGs.

文摘Dear Editor,This letter studies output consensus problem of heterogeneous linear multiagent systems over directed graphs. A novel adaptive dynamic event-triggered controller is presented based only on the feedback combination of the agent's own state and neighbors' output,which can achieve exponential output consensus through intermittent communication. The controller is obtained by solving two linear matrix equations, and Zeno behavior is excluded.
文摘In this paper, we proposed an output voltage stabilization of a DC-DC Zeta converter using hybrid control. We modeled the Zeta converter under continuous conduction mode operation. We derived a switching control law that brings the output voltage to the desired level. Due to infinite switching occurring at the desired level, we enhanced the switching control law by allowing a sizeable output voltage ripple. We derived mathematical models that allow one to choose the desired switching frequency. In practice, the existence of the non-ideal properties of the Zeta converter results in steady-state output voltage error. By analyzing the power loss in the zeta converter, we proposed an improved switching control law that eliminates the steady-state output voltage error. The effectiveness of the proposed method is illustrated with simulation results.

文摘In this paper,a pair of dynamic high-gain observer and output feedback controller is proposed for nonlinear systems with multiple unknown time delays.By constructing Lyapunov-Krasovskii functionals,it shows that global state asymptotic regulation can be ensured by introducing a single dynamic gain;furthermore,global asymptotic stabilization can be achieved by choosing a sufficiently large static scaling gain when the upper bounds of all system parameters are known.Especially,the output coefficient is allowed to be non-differentiable with unknown upper bound.This paper proposes a generalized Lyapunov matrix inequality based dynamic-gain scaling method,which significantly simplifies the design computational complexity by comparing with the classic backstepping method.

文摘This paper investigates the observer-based prescribed-time time-varying output formation-containment(PT-TV-OFC)control problem for heterogeneous multi-agent systems in which the different agents have different state dimensions.The system comprises one tracking leader,multiple formation leaders,and followers,where two types of leaders are used to generate a reference trajectory for movement and achieve specific formation,respectively.Firstly,a prescribed-time dynamics observer is constructed for the formation leaders to estimate the tracking leader's dynamic model and state.On this basis,a prescribed-time control protocol is designed for the formation leaders to achieve time-varying output formation.Then,a prescribed-time convex hull observer is designed for the followers to estimate information regarding the convex hull formed by the formation leaders.Using the estimated convex hull information,a prescribed-time containment control protocol is designed to ensure the followers converge into the convex hull.Furthermore,using Lyapunov stability theory,the stability of systems is proved in detail,which implies that the heterogeneous multi-agent systems can achieve PT-TV-OFC control.Finally,numerical simulations validate the feasibility of the theoretical results.
文摘Owing to their high practicability,solar PV/T(photovoltaic/thermal)collectors have attracted considerable attention from researchers in both photovoltaic and solar-thermal fields worldwide.In this study,we designed and constructed a novel solar-cooled PV/T system.Through experimental methods,we conducted an in-depth investigation of its thermal and electrical output characteristics and developed mathematical models for both thermal performance and electrical performance.Finally,we validated the experimental data against simulations.The results demonstrate that the designed solar-cooled PV/T system exhibits excellent thermal and electrical output performance.The utilization rate of waste heat from the PV module’s back plate reached 18.59%,and the system’s electrical efficiency improved by 1.92%compared to a conventional PV/T system.This work provides theoretical and experimental guidance for the further optimization and improvement of the solar-cooled PV/T system.

文摘The energy release of energetic composites is severely limited by the inert alumina(Al_(2)O_(3))layer on the surface of aluminum(Al).Polytetrafluoroethylene(PTFE)could eliminate Al_(2)O_(3)layer due to its highly electronegativity and oxidability of fluorine.However,adding PTFE particles would weaken interfacial interactions resulted in poor mechanical properties and interfacial exothermic reaction.Herein,a bridging Al-PTFE as fuel and interfacial reinforcing agent was added and used to prepare LLM-105/AlPTFE microspheres,achieving both high energy output and excellent mechanical properties.The energy release and combustion reaction performance of LLM-105/Al-PTFE microspheres are significantly improved due to high reaction heat and increased interfacial reaction area of Al-PTFE.The maximum pressure and pressurization rate of LLM-105/Al-PTFE microspheres are 164.06 kPa and 29.88 kPa/s,respectively,which are 40.11%and 16.67%higher than those of physical mixed samples.Furthermore,the tensile strength and compressive strength of LLM-105/Al-PTFE microspheres are 100.40%and 26.47%higher than those of LLM-105/Al.This work provides a new approach to improve the energy release and mechanical properties for energetic composites.

文摘Stratospheric airships are lighter-than-air vehicles capable of continuous flying for months.The energy balance of the airship is the key to long-duration flights.The stratospheric airship is entirely powered by the solar array.It is necessary to accurately predict the output power of the array for any flight state.Because of the uneven solar radiation received by the solar array,the traditional model based on components has a slow simulation speed.In this study,a data-driven surrogate modeling approach for prediction the output power of the solar array is proposed.The surrogate model is trained using the samples obtained from the high-accuracy simulation model.By using the input parameter preprocessor,the accuracy of the surrogate model in predicting the output power of the solar array is improved to 98.65%.In addition,the predictive speed of the surrogate model is ten million times faster than the traditional simulation model.Finally,the surrogate model is used to predict the energy balance of stratospheric airships flying throughout the year under actual global wind fields.

文摘Hydrogen peroxide(H_(2)O_(2))production via electrochemical two-electron oxygen reduction reaction(ORR)holds a great promise for sustainable energy storage.However,the issues such as high energy consumption and difficult extraction of thermodynamically unstable H_(2)O_(2) still need to be resolved.Herein,we reported a unified system for energy-out production and downstream conversion of H_(2)O_(2).By replacing the sluggish oxygen evolution reaction with a hydrazine oxidation reaction(HzOR),the cell of twoelectron ORR coupled with HzOR achieves the co-generation of electricity energy and valuable H_(2)O_(2).By employing Ru single atoms anchored on cobalt hydroxide(for HzOR)and NiSe_(2)(for ORR)as electrocatalysts,both exhibiting onset potentials near the theoretical values for their respective reactions,the ORR‖HzOR cell exhibits an energy output of 3.58 mW cm^(-2) and generates 0.66 kWh of electricity per kg of H_(2)O_(2).with a production rate of 583 mmol h^(-1) H_(2)O_(2).The produced H_(2)O_(2) was subsequently in-situ upgraded via three downstream conversion pathways to yield value-added products of sodium percarbonate,sodium peroxyborate,and ethylene glycol.A techno-economic analysis confirmed the economic viability of this ORR‖HzOR coupled with downstream conversion system.
文摘BACKGROUND:Pulse indicated continuous cardiac output(PiCCO)has largely replaced Swan-Ganz catheterization in shock patients.However,whether PiCCO monitoring can improve outcomes of shock patients,such as mortality,length of hospital stay,duration of mechanical ventilation,or laboratory parameters,remains unknown.METHODS:This retrospective cohort study included patients with shock in the intensive care unit(ICU)from January 2013 to January 2020.Patients were divided into PiCCO group and non-PiCCO group based on treatment with PiCCO monitoring or not.Demographic characteristics,Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation(APACHE)II scores,quick Sequential Organ Failure Assessment(qSOFA)scores,14-day mortality,and N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide(NT-proBNP)levels at 0,1,3 and 7 days after onset of shock,duration of mechanical ventilation,length of hospital stay and hospitalization costs were compiled and analyzed using propensity score matching(PSM).RESULTS:Real-world analysis of 1,583 ICU patients suff ering shock after propensity score matching revealed that 14-day mortality did not differ between PiCCO and non-PiCCO groups(36.2%vs.32.6%,P=0.343).Duration of mechanical ventilation,hospital stay,and hospitalization costs were also similar between the two groups(P>0.05).No diff erences in changes of NT-proBNP levels on days 0,1,3,and 7 as compared to baseline were noted between the two groups(P>0.05).CONCLUSIONS:The results of our real-world indicate that PiCCO monitoring may not shorten the duration of mechanical ventilation,length of hospital stay,or reduce hospitalization costs,nor will it bring survival benefi ts to ICU patients suff ering shock.

文摘This paper discusses the design of event-triggered output-feedback controller for a class of nonlinear time-delay systems with multiple uncertainties. In sharp contrast to previous works, the considered systems possess two important characteristics: (i) The uncertain nonlinear terms meet the linearly unmeasurable-states dependent growth with the growth rate being an unknown function of the input and output. (ii) There exist input matching uncertainty and unknown measurement sensitivity. By introducing a single dynamic gain and employing a cleverly devised event-triggering mechanism (ETM), we design a new gain-based event-triggered output-feedback controller, which globally regulates all states of the considered systems and maintains global boundedness of the closed-loop system. Furthermore, the estimation of input matching uncertainty achieves convergence towards its actual value, and Zeno behavior does not happen. Two simulation examples including a practical one show that the proposed approach is effective.
