文摘In this paper,inspired by the running motion gait of a cheetah,an H-shaped bionic piezoelectric robot(H-BPR)based on the standing wave principle is proposed and designed.The piezoelectric robot realizes linear motion,turning motion,and turning motion with different radi by the voltage differential driving method.A prototype with a weight of 38 g and dimensions of 150×80×31 mm^(3) was fabricated.Firstly,the dynamics and kinematics of the piezoelectric robot were analyzed to obtain the trajectory of a point at the end of the piezoelectric robot leg.The motion principle of the piezo-electric robot was analyzed,and then the piezoelectric robot's modal analysis and harmonic response analysis were carried out using finite element analysis software.Finally,an experimental setup was built to verify the effectiveness and high efficiency of the robot's motion,and the effects of frequency,voltage,load,and height of the driving leg on the robot's motion performance were discussed.The performance test results show that the piezoelectric robot has a maximum veloc-ity of 66.79 mm/s at an excitation voltage of 320 V and a load capacity of 55 g.In addition,the H-BPR with unequal drive legs has better climbing performance,and the obtained conclusions are informative for selecting leg heights for piezoelectric robots.

文摘In essence,the negotiation of license fees on standard essential patent(SEP)belongs to a kind of market be⁃havior,and the pricing right should be given to the market subjects under the requirements of patent law.In recent years,the frequent disputes on SEP license fees witnessed in the industrial and academic worlds,together with the lack of systematic supporting functions like FRAND,make SEP pricing excessively reliant on judicial judgment in practice.Fortunately,a variety of pricing methods have been proposed by theoretical research and practiced in judicial cases,which provide possible solutions for the license fee pricing of SEP from the operational level.In this paper,by focusing on the characteristics of the existing SEP pricing methods in the academic fields and judicial system,the dispute caused by license fees of SEP is clarified firstly,then by combining and interpreting twelve existing pricing methods of license fee of SEP with academic literature and judicial cases,four categories of methods are composed based on the application stages and calculation logic.Thirdly,the application barriers and dilemmas caused by the inherent limita⁃tions of the four categories of methods are analyzed,and the possible ways to put these methods into practice are ex⁃plored.Lastly,suggestions are presented from the aspects of preconditions for application,pricing stages,dispute reso⁃lution mechanisms,and comprehensive applications.The purpose of this paper is to provide enlightenment for getting back on track with the pricing right and further optimization of the pricing mechanism of license fees of SEP.

文摘To ameliorate the difficulties of on-site dynamic disaster control in the end-mining stage of traditional mining engineering,this paper introduces the mathematical research and engineering application of the end-mining technology system with non-pillar in mines(ETSNM)in recent years.The petal warning criterion for the stability of the surrounding rock of the roadway at the end-mining stage was obtained by studying the inverse problem of the petal theorem.A conformal mathematical model of the end-mining stage was established using the conformal mapping method,and the limit theorem of the peak point of mine pressure(LTPPMP)in the end-mining stage was demonstrated.Based on the cross-fusion of the above basic mathematical theory and the LTPPMP,a new ETSNM model was proposed,which includes no coal pillar,no dedicated retracement roadways,and fast retracement equipment(NNF).The mathematical principles of engineering technology for height control,speed limit,and roof cutting in the end-mining stage with non-pillar were revealed.The scientific and application values of the ETSNM were confirmed through engineering applications.Based on this,a new non-pillar control technology for dynamic disasters in the end-mining stage was proposed.The above research will play an active role in promoting the engineering application of ETSNM driven by mathematical theory.

文摘TiO_(2)is a well-known photocatalyst with a band gap of 3.2 eV,yet its ability to absorb light is limited to the short wavelengths of ultraviolet light.To achieve a more effective photocatalytic material,we have designed two-dimensional semiconductor TiOS materials using swarm intelligence algorithms combined with first-principles calculations.Three stable low-energy structures with space groups of P2_(1)/m,P3m1 and P2_(1)/c are identified.Among these structures,the Janus P3m1 phase is a direct bandgap semiconductor,while the P2_(1)/m and P2_(1)/c phases are indirect bandgap semiconductors.Utilizing the accurate hybrid density functional HSE06 method,the band gaps of the three structures are calculated to be 2.34 eV(P2_(1)/m),2.24 eV(P3m1)and 3.22 eV(P2_(1)/c).Optical calculations reveal that TiOS materials exhibit a good light-harvesting capability in both visible and ultraviolet spectral ranges.Moreover,the photocatalytic calculations also indicate that both P2_(1)/m and P3m1 TiOS can provide a strong driving force for converting H_(2)O to H_(2)and O_(2)in an acidic environment with pH=0.The structural stabilities,mechanical properties,electronic structures and hydrogen evolution reaction activities are also discussed in detail.Our research suggests that two-dimensional TiOS materials have potential applications in both semiconductor devices and photocatalysis.

文摘The structural,relative stability,and electronic properties of two-dimensional AsP_(2)X_(6)(X=S,Se)were predicted and studied using the particle-swarm optimization method and first principles calculations.We proposed two low energy structures with P312 and P-31m phases,both of which the structures are hexagonal in shape and show non-centrosymmetry for the P312 phase and centrosymmetry for the P-31m phase.According to our results,two structural phases are found to be stable thermally and dynamically.The P312 phase of AsP_(2)X_(6)(X=S,Se)are indirect semiconductors with band gaps of 2.44 eV(AsP2S6)and 2.18 eV(AsP2Se6)at the HSE06 level,and their absorption coefficients are predicted to reach the order of 10^(5)cm^(-1)from visible light to ultraviolet region,but the main absorption is manly in the ultraviolet region.The P-31m phase of AsP_(2)X_(6)(X=S,Se)exhibits metal character with the Fermi surface mainly occupied by the p orbital of S/Se.Remarkably,estimated by first principles calculations,the P-31m AsP2S6 is found to be an intrinsic phonon-mediated superconductor with a relatively high critical superconducting temperature of about 13.4 K,and the P-31m AsP2Se6 only has a superconducting temperature of 1.4 K,which suggest that the P-31m AsP2S6 may be a good candidate for a nanoscale superconductor.
