Association rules were used to analyze correlation and check consistency between indices. This study shows that the judgment obtained by weak association rules or non-association rules is more accurate and more credible than that obtained by strong association rules. When the testing grades of two indices in the weak association rules are inconsistent, the testing grades of indices are more likely to be erroneous, and the mistakes are often caused by human factors. Clustering data mining technology was used to analyze the reliability of a diagnosis, or to perform health diagnosis directly. Analysis showed that the clustering results are related to the indices selected, and that if the indices selected are more significant, the characteristics of clustering results are also more significant, and the analysis or diagnosis is more credible. The indices and diagnosis analysis function produced by this study provide a necessary theoretical foundation and new ideas for the development of hydraulic metal structure health diagnosis technology.展开更多

It is found that the injected charges form wave packets due to the strong electron-lattice interaction in PT. We demonstrate that the dynamical formation of the wave packet sensitively depends on the strength of applied voltage, the electric field, and the contact between PT and electrode. At a strength of the electric field more than 3.0 × 10^4 V/cm, the carriers can be ejected from the PT into the right electrode. At an electric field more than 3.0 × 10^5 V/cm, the wave packet cannot form while it moves rapidly to the right PT/metal interface. It is shown that the ejected quantity of charge is noninteger.展开更多

When considering these uncertainty factors, reliability-based design optimization （RBDO） offers a more reasonable design approach. However, existing RBDO methods for crane metallic structures are prone to low convergence speed and high computational cost. A unilevel RBDO method, combining a discrete imperialist competitive algorithm with an inverse reliabil- ity strategy based on the performance measure approach, is developed. Application of the imperialist competitive algorithm at the optimization level significantly improves the convergence speed of this RBDO method. At the reli- ability analysis level, the inverse reliability strategy is used to determine the feasibility of each probabilistic constraint at each design point by calculating its a-percentile per- formance, thereby avoiding convergence failure, calcula- tion error, and disproportionate computational effort encountered using conventional moment and simulation methods. Application of the RBDO method to an actual crane structure shows that the developed RBDO realizes a design with the best tradeoff between economy and safety together with about one-third of the convergence speed and the computational cost of the existing method. This paper provides a scientific and effective design approach for the design of metallic structures of cranes.展开更多

At first, five typical impregnating solutions were designed; the existing metal precursors, such as [Mo4(citrate)2O11]^(4-)-like, [P2Mo18O62]^(6-)-like and [P2Mo5O23]^(6-)-like species in the solutions were confirmed by laser Raman spectroscopy(LRS). The UV-Vis spectra results indicated that the solutions containing both phosphoric acid and citric acid could change the existing form of nickel species. Five corresponding Ni Mo/Al_2O_3 catalysts were prepared by the incipient wetness impregnation method. The LRS analysis results of dried catalysts showed that the above metal precursors could be partly retained on alumina support after impregnation and drying, although the interface reaction between different metal precursors and alumina support unavoidably took place. Then the catalysts were sulfided and characterized by N2 physisorption, TEM and XPS analyses. The results showed that different metal precursors in impregnating solution could mainly result in the difference in both the morphology of(Ni)Mo S2 slabs and the promoting effect of Ni species. The catalyst prepared mainly with [P2Mo5O23]^(6-)-like species used as precursors exhibited worse dispersion of(Ni)Mo S2 slabs and lower ratio of Ni–Mo–S active phases than the one with [Mo4(citrate)2O11]^(4-)-like species. Promisingly, the catalyst prepared with co-existing [Mo4(citrate)2O11]^(4-)-like, [P2Mo18O62]^(6-)-like and [P2Mo5O23]^(6-)-like species showed better hydrodesulfurization activity for 4,6-DMDBT thanks to its more well-dispersed Ni–Mo–S active phases.展开更多

This approach is considered to be a promising way to obtain a light-weight, ultrathin and transparent shielding medium, which not only transmits visible light but also inhibits the transmission of microwaves, despite the fact that the total thickness of the Ag film is much larger than the skin depth in the visible range and less than that in the microwave region. Theoretical results suggest that a high dielectric/metal thickness ratio can enhance the broadband and improve the transmittance in the optical range. Accordingly, the central wavelength was found to be red-shifted with increasing dielectric/metal thickness ratio. A physical mechanism behind the controlling transmission of visible light is also proposed. Meanwhile, the electromagnetic shielding effectiveness of the prepared structures was found to exceed 40 dB in the range from 0.1 GHz to 18 GHz, even reaching up to 70 dB at 0.1 GHz, which is far higher than that of a single ITO film of the same thickness.展开更多

Compound 1 features a discrete anionic moiety of [Cu6I10]^4- charge-balanced by two metal complexes of [Ni（phen）3]2＋. The optical absorption edge of compound 1 was estimated to be 2.24 eV. Interestingly, nearly 95% of contaminant（crystal violet aqueous solution（CV）, 50 m L, 1.0 × 10^-5 M） could be decolorized after exposure to visible light within 30 min, illustrating an impressive photocatalytic activity of compound 1.

Its glass transition and crystallization temperatures were determined by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) to be 631 K and 710 K respectively. By analysis of X-ray diffractometry (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM ), the predominant crystallized phase of Zr_2Ni0.67O0.33 distributed on glass state matrix was detected after annealing at 673 K for 600 s. The transformation to Zr_2Ni_0.67O_0.33 and a small amount of ZrAl and Zr_2Cu took place after annealing for 600 s at temperature from 703 K to 723 K. With increasing annealing temperature from 753 K to 823 K, the amounts of ZrAl and Zr_2Cu increased, but the size of the crystals did not significantly change. The transformation to Zr_2Ni_0.67O_0.33 is interface-controlled, but is diffusion-controlled to Zr_2Cu and ZrAl. With increasing annealing temperature up to 200 K above T_x, the nanometer grains became very fine because of the increase of nucleation rate for Zr_2Cu and ZrAl.展开更多

The atomic structure was studied by high-resolution electron microscopy (HREM) and nm-area electron diffraction. The size of the clusters is ranging from 1 nm to 3 nm without those larger than 5 nm, and most of them have definite epitaxial orientations with the MgO matrix films. The character of the composite films is very much useful for the studies of various kinds of physical properties with anisotroPy. The physical properties such as electric transport, magnetic, optical absorption, sintering and catalytic ones were thus measured on the same samples analyzed by HREM by using high sensitivity apparatus with interest of clarifying the retationship between the atomic structure and physical properties展开更多

To investigate the mechanism, the quenching experimental results of the liquid Al-Cu alloy show that there is a re- markable change in structure, in which the solute congregates along the current direction especially for DC current. The mechanism of the activity coefficient change of Al in molten Cu-0.2wt%Al alloy treated by electrical field was discussed. Further, the results also provide an evidence for the short-range-ordered liquid metal.展开更多

文摘The dynamical process of charge injection from metal electrode to a nondegenerate polymer in a metal/polythiophene （PT）/metal structure has been investigated by using a nonadiabatic dynamic approach. It is found that the injected charges form wave packets due to the strong electron-lattice interaction in PT. We demonstrate that the dynamical formation of the wave packet sensitively depends on the strength of applied voltage, the electric field, and the contact between PT and electrode. At a strength of the electric field more than 3.0 × 10^4 V/cm, the carriers can be ejected from the PT into the right electrode. At an electric field more than 3.0 × 10^5 V/cm, the wave packet cannot form while it moves rapidly to the right PT/metal interface. It is shown that the ejected quantity of charge is noninteger.

Promisingly, the catalyst prepared with co-existing [Mo4(citrate)2O11]^(4-)-like, [P2Mo18O62]^(6-)-like and [P2Mo5O23]^(6-)-like species showed better hydrodesulfurization activity for 4,6-DMDBT thanks to its more well-dispersed Ni–Mo–S active phases.

文摘In this study, we designed and fabricated optical materials consisting of alternating ITO and Ag layers. This approach is considered to be a promising way to obtain a light-weight, ultrathin and transparent shielding medium, which not only transmits visible light but also inhibits the transmission of microwaves, despite the fact that the total thickness of the Ag film is much larger than the skin depth in the visible range and less than that in the microwave region. Theoretical results suggest that a high dielectric/metal thickness ratio can enhance the broadband and improve the transmittance in the optical range. Accordingly, the central wavelength was found to be red-shifted with increasing dielectric/metal thickness ratio. A physical mechanism behind the controlling transmission of visible light is also proposed. Meanwhile, the electromagnetic shielding effectiveness of the prepared structures was found to exceed 40 dB in the range from 0.1 GHz to 18 GHz, even reaching up to 70 dB at 0.1 GHz, which is far higher than that of a single ITO film of the same thickness.

文摘With transition metal complex, a discrete cuprous iodide compound, namely, [Ni（phen）3]2Cu6I10（1, phen = 1,10-phenanthroline） has been solvothermally synthesized and structurally characterized. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies revealed that compound 1 crystallizes in triclinic space group P1（No. 2） with a = 11.2694（2）, b = 12.3699（3）, c = 15.0387（3） ？, α = 102.840（2）, β = 105.215（2）, γ = 96.388（2）°, V = 1940.04（7） ^3, Z = 1, Dc = 2.438 g·cm^-3, F（000） = 1324, R = 0.0256 and w R = 0.0555（I 〉 2σ（I））. Compound 1 features a discrete anionic moiety of [Cu6I10]^4- charge-balanced by two metal complexes of [Ni（phen）3]2＋. The optical absorption edge of compound 1 was estimated to be 2.24 eV. Interestingly, nearly 95% of contaminant（crystal violet aqueous solution（CV）, 50 m L, 1.0 × 10^-5 M） could be decolorized after exposure to visible light within 30 min, illustrating an impressive photocatalytic activity of compound 1. The thermal stability of 1 has also been studied.
文摘Bulk metallic glass Zr_52.5Ni_14.6Al_10Cu_17.9Ti_5 was prepared by melt injection casting method. Its glass transition and crystallization temperatures were determined by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) to be 631 K and 710 K respectively. By analysis of X-ray diffractometry (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM ), the predominant crystallized phase of Zr_2Ni0.67O0.33 distributed on glass state matrix was detected after annealing at 673 K for 600 s. The transformation to Zr_2Ni_0.67O_0.33 and a small amount of ZrAl and Zr_2Cu took place after annealing for 600 s at temperature from 703 K to 723 K. With increasing annealing temperature from 753 K to 823 K, the amounts of ZrAl and Zr_2Cu increased, but the size of the crystals did not significantly change. The transformation to Zr_2Ni_0.67O_0.33 is interface-controlled, but is diffusion-controlled to Zr_2Cu and ZrAl. With increasing annealing temperature up to 200 K above T_x, the nanometer grains became very fine because of the increase of nucleation rate for Zr_2Cu and ZrAl.
文摘The crystal structure of the title complex salt has been determined by single-crystal X-ray structure analysis. The crystal data are as follows; Monoclinic, P21/c, a=15.6480(10)A,b=16.7870(10)A, c=10.347(2)A, β=90.790(10), V=2717.7(6)A3, Z=3, and R=0.0333 for 4789 unique reflections. The complex anion has a pseudo-octahedral structure distorted more than the CrⅢand CoⅢ analogs, in which cach iminodiacetato ligand (ida2-) is coordinated in a facial fashion with the two N atoms in a cis configuration, resulting in an unsyin-fac structure.
文摘Nanometer-sized metal clusters were prepared inside single crystalline MgO films by vacuum co-deposition of metals and MgO. The atomic structure was studied by high-resolution electron microscopy (HREM) and nm-area electron diffraction. The size of the clusters is ranging from 1 nm to 3 nm without those larger than 5 nm, and most of them have definite epitaxial orientations with the MgO matrix films. The character of the composite films is very much useful for the studies of various kinds of physical properties with anisotroPy. The physical properties such as electric transport, magnetic, optical absorption, sintering and catalytic ones were thus measured on the same samples analyzed by HREM by using high sensitivity apparatus with interest of clarifying the retationship between the atomic structure and physical properties

文摘Strength and plasticity of metallic structural materials are the fundamental indicators of the service reliability[1].However,as is well known,a general trade-offrelationship exists between strength and plasticity of metallic materials,making it difficult to improve both of them synchronously[2].At present,only few of the successful cases[3-8],achieved via nano-particles[7],heterogeneous microstructures[8],etc.are mostly limited to some specific materials or processes.

文摘High-performance lattice structures produced through powder bed fusion-laser beam exhibit high specific strength and energy absorption capabilities.However,a significant deviation exists between the mechanical properties,service life of lattice structures,and design expectations.This deviation arises from the intense interaction between the laser and powder,which leads to the formation of numerous defects within the lattice structure.To address these issues,this paper proposes a high-performance defect detection model for metal lattice structures based on YOLOv4,called YOLO-Lattice(YOLO-L).The main objectives of this paper are as follows:(1)utilize computed tomography to construct datasets of the diamond lattice and body-centered cubic lattice structures;(2)in the backbone network of YOLOv4,employ deformable convolution to enhance the feature extraction capability of the model for small-scale defects;(3)adopt a dual-attention mechanism to suppress invalid feature information and amplify the distinction between defect and background regions;and(4)implement a channel pruning strategy to eliminate channels carrying less feature information,thereby improving the inference speed of the model.The experimental results on the diamond lattice structure dataset demonstrate that the mean average precision of the YOLO-L model increased from 96.98% to 98.8%(with an intersection over union of 0.5),and the inference speed decreased from 51.3 ms to 32.5 ms when compared to YOLOv4.Thus,the YOLO-L model can be effectively used to detect defects in metal lattice structures.

文摘Metallic lattice structures represent advanced architected materials delivering exceptional properties with promising lightweight potential.With the rapid advancement of additive manufacturing,these structures have garnered increasing research interest.However,most metallic lattice structures generally exhibit anisotropic characteristics,which limits their application ranges.Additionally,a limited number of studies have successfully developed precise mechanical models,which have undergone experimental validation,for the purpose of describing the mechanical response exhibited by additively manufactured metallic lattice structures.In this study,Kelvin lattice structures with varying porosities were systematically designed and fabricated using laser powder bed fusion(LPBF)technology.By integrating finite element simulations with experimental characterization,an enhanced mechanical model was developed through a modification of the Gibson-Ashby model,providing an accurate quantitative description of the relationship between porosity and mechanical properties.The results show that the revised mechanical model can accurately describe the relationship between the geometric parameters and properties of metallic lattice structures.Specifically,the designed Kelvin lattice structures exhibit a smooth stress-strain curve with an obvious yield platform,demonstrating isotropic mechanical properties in all the three spatial directions.This enhances their suitability for complex loading conditions.Meanwhile,the microstructure and manufacturing accuracy of the Kelvin lattice structures were observed and analyzed by micro computed tomography.The results show that the fabricated metallic lattice structures achieved precise dimensional control and optimal densification.This study presents the complete process involved in modeling the Kelvin structure,including its conceptualization,manufacturing,implementation,and ultimately,disposal.

文摘The activity coefficient of Al in molten Cu decreases with the increasing of electric current applied to the liquid alloy of Cu-0.2wt%Al. To investigate the mechanism, the quenching experimental results of the liquid Al-Cu alloy show that there is a re- markable change in structure, in which the solute congregates along the current direction especially for DC current. The mechanism of the activity coefficient change of Al in molten Cu-0.2wt%Al alloy treated by electrical field was discussed. Further, the results also provide an evidence for the short-range-ordered liquid metal.

文摘To address the incompatibility between high environmental adaptability and deep subwavelength characteristics in conventional local resonance metamaterials,and overcome the deficiencies in the stability of existing active control techniques for band gaps,this paper proposes a design method of pure metal vibration damping metamaterial with continuously tunable stiffness for wideband elastic wave absorption.We design a dual-helix narrow-slit pure metal metamaterial unit,which possesses the triple advantage of high spatial compactness,low stiffness characteristics,and high structural stability,enabling the opening of elastic flexural band gaps in the low-frequency range.Similar to the principle of a sliding rheostat,the introduction of continuously sliding plug-ins into the helical slits enables the continuous variation of the stiffness of the metamaterial unit,achieving a continuously tunable band gap effect.This successfully extends the effective band gap by more than ten times.The experimental results indicate that this metamaterial unit can be used as an additional vibration absorber to absorb the low-frequency vibration energy effectively.Furthermore,it advances the metamaterial absorbers from a purely passive narrowband design to a wideband tunable one.The pure metal double-helix metamaterials retain the subwavelength properties of metamaterials and are suitable for deployment in harsh environments.Simultaneously,by adjusting its stiffness,it substantially broadens the effective band gap range,presenting promising potential applications in various mechanical equipment operating under adverse conditions.

文摘Due to their rapid power delivery,fast charging,and long cycle life,supercapacitors have become an important energy storage technology recently.However,to meet the continuously increasing demands in the fields of portable electronics,transportation,and future robotic technologies,supercapacitors with higher energy densities without sacrificing high power densities and cycle stabilities are still challenged.Transition metal compounds(TMCs)possessing high theoretical capacitance are always used as electrode materials to improve the energy densities of supercapacitors.However,the power densities and cycle lives of such TMCs-based electrodes are still inferior due to their low intrinsic conductivity and large volume expansion during the charge/discharge process,which greatly impede their large-scale applications.Most recently,the ideal integrating of TMCs and conductive carbon skeletons is considered as an effective solution to solve the above challenges.Herein,we summarize the recent developments of TMCs/carbon hybrid electrodes which exhibit both high energy/power densities from the aspects of structural design strategies,including conductive carbon skeleton,interface engineering,and electronic structure.Furthermore,the remaining challenges and future perspectives are also highlighted so as to provide strategies for the high energy/power TMCs/carbon-based supercapacitors.
