To solve this issue, here, a novel carbon fiber-based multiscale reinforcement is reported. To synthesize it, carbon fibers (CFs) have been first grafted by graphene oxide (GO), and then carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have been in-situ grown on GO-grafted CFs by catalytic chemical vapor deposition. Characterizations on this novel reinforcement show that GO grafting cannot only nondestructively improve the surface chemical activity of CFs but also protect CFs against the high-temperature corrosion of metal catalyst during CNT growth, which maintains their tensile properties. Tensile property tests for unidirectional C/Cs with different preforms show that this novel reinforcement can endow C/C with improved tensile properties, 32% and 87% higher than that of pure C/C and C/C only doped with in-situ grown CNTs. This work would open up a possibility to fabricate multiscale C/Cs with excellent global performance.展开更多

In this paper, we proposed a multiscale-like coherence model, defined as composite multiscalecoherence (CMSC) by combining the kth coarse-grain processing with the coherence. We made a comparison withthe multiscale coherence (MSC) with coarse-grain process in numerical data to compare the sensitivity profiles tothe coupling strength, data length and white Gaussian noise. After that, we applied the proposed model to explorethe functional corticomuscular coupling (FCMC) by analyzing the correlation between the EEG and EMG signals.Simulation results reflected that the CMSC method were sensitive to the coupling strength, data length and thewhite Gaussian noise, and presented more stability along the time scale compared to the MSC method. Ourapplication of CMSC methods on the EEG and EMG signals indicated that the FCMC was of multi-time scalecharacteristics and higher coherence mainly consisted in the alpha and beta bands at about scale 10, thoughsignificant area showed a gradual decline with the scale increasing. Further comparison indicated that bothmodels are equally effective to describe the multiscale characteristics of the FCMC at lower time scales, whilesome differences emerge at the high time scales. Both simulation and experimental data demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed multiscale-like model to describe the multiscale correlation between two time series. Thisstudy extends the relative researches on the FCMC to the multi-time scale.展开更多
