It is explained that a sudden drop of friction force is the essential source of stick-slip motion when the sliding is impending. A new criterion for occurrence of stick-slip motion is established. The stick-slip region and the stable region in a parameter plane are separated by a critical parameter curve. Moreover, for the stick-slip motion of the flexible drive mechanism without viscous damping, a parameter expression is obtained. The results may be used in design of the flexible drive mechanism.展开更多

However, the backward motion always generates for some piezoelectric actuators, which reduces the working efficiency. Bionic motions have already been employed in the field of piezoelectric actuators to realize better performance. By imitating the movement form of seals, seal type piezoelectric actuator is capable to realize large operating strokes easily. Nevertheless, the conventional seal type piezoelectric actuator has a complicated structure and control system, which limits further applications. Hence, an improved bionic piezoelectric actuator is proposed to realize a long motion stroke and eliminate backward movement with a simplified structure and control method in this study. The composition and motion principle of the designed actuator are discussed, and the performance is investigated with simulations and experiments. Results confirm that the presented actuator effectively realizes the linear movement that has a large working stroke stably without backward motion. The smallest stepping displacement ΔL is 0.2 μm under 1 Hz and 50 V. The largest motion speed is 900 μm/s with 900 Hz and 120 V. The largest vertical and horizontal load are 250 g and 12 g, respectively. This work shows that the improved bionic piezoelectric actuator is feasible for eliminating backward motion and has a great working ability.展开更多

文摘This paper, using Karnopp's model of friction force and phase plane method, studies the stick-slip motion of the flexible drive mechanism. It is explained that a sudden drop of friction force is the essential source of stick-slip motion when the sliding is impending. A new criterion for occurrence of stick-slip motion is established. The stick-slip region and the stable region in a parameter plane are separated by a critical parameter curve. Moreover, for the stick-slip motion of the flexible drive mechanism without viscous damping, a parameter expression is obtained. The results may be used in design of the flexible drive mechanism.

文摘The plastic deformation of semiconductors,a process critical to their mechanical and electronic properties,involves various mechanisms such as dislocation motion and phase transition.Here,we systematically examined the temperature-dependent Peierls stress for 30°and 90°partial dislocations in cadmium telluride(CdTe),using a combination of molecular statics and molecular dynamics simulations with a machine-learning force field,as well as density functional theory simulations.Our findings reveal that the 0 K Peierls stresses for these partial dislocations in CdTe are relatively low,ranging from 0.52 GPa to 1.46 GPa,due to its significant ionic bonding characteristics.Notably,in the CdTe system containing either a 30°Cd-core or 90°Te-core partial dislocation,a phase transition from the zinc-blende phase to theβ-Sn-like phase is favored over dislocation motion.This suggests a competitive relationship between these two mechanisms,driven by the bonding characteristics within the dislocation core and the relatively low phase transition stress of∼1.00 GPa.Furthermore,we observed a general trend wherein the Peierls stress for partial dislocations in CdTe exhibits a temperature dependence,which decreases with increasing temperature,becoming lower than the phase transition stress at elevated temperatures.Consequently,the dominant deformation mechanism in CdTe shifts from solid-state phase transition at low temperatures to dislocation motion at high temperatures.This investigation uncovers a compelling interplay between dislocation motion and phase transition in the plastic deformation of CdTe,offering profound insights into the mechanical behavior and electronic performance of CdTe and other II-VI semiconductors.

文摘In earthquake-prone areas,mountain tunnels often suffer from seismic damage when traversing active fault zones.To capture the seismic behavior of mountain tunnel under the action of active faults motion,the rate and state friction(RSF)relation is introduced to define the stickeslip dynamic behavior of a fault.The RSF relation is implemented in the finite element methods(FEMs).Numerical simulations of triaxial patch tests indicate that the RSF method can effectively capture the stickeslip dynamics.To reproduce the seismic damage to Daliang tunnel caused by slip of the Lenglongling fault,a three-dimensional(3D)numerical model including tunnel structure and plates of the fault is established.Seismic waves triggered by fault slip are then reproduced using the model.The simulation results show that the waves are dissipated while travelling and that their amplitudes decrease with depth.The failure of the tunnel lining is captured,and its seismic responses,including the displacement and strain of the structure,are extracted for various fault strike angles.The simulations are consistent with the observations,and it indicates that the movement of the simulated tunnel structure adjacent to the fault surface is significantly greater than those in the foot wall and in the middle of the fault.This study has the potential to provide a more direct means of understanding the seismic action of infrastructure induced by earthquakes.Seismic waves are no longer needed as input to the numerical simulation and instead,the earthquakes are generated by directly modeling the stickeslip motion of the fault.

文摘In this study,we present a unified sparsity-driven framework that significantly enhances motion deblurring performance by integrating two key components:a custom-designed dataset and a low-rank module(LRM).This framework leverages the inherent sparsity of per-pixel blur kernels to bolster both deblurring accuracy and model interpretability.Firstly,we propose an adaptive-basis decomposition-based deblurring(ADD)approach,which constructs a tailored training dataset to enhance the generalization capacity of the deblurring network.The ADD framework adaptively decomposes motion blur into sparse basis elements,effectively addressing the intricacies associated with non-uniform blurs.Secondly,an LRM is proposed to improve the interpretability of deblurring models as a plug-and-play module,primarily designed to identify and harness the intrinsic sparse features in sharp images.A series of ablation studies have been conducted to substantiate the synergistic advantages of combining the proposed ADD with the LRM for overall improvement in deblurring efficacy.Subsequently,we empirically demonstrate through rigorous experimentation that incorporating the LRM into an existing Uformer network leads to substantial enhancement in reconstruction performance.This integration yields a sparsity-guided low-rank network(SGLRN).Operating under the overarching principle of sparsity,SGLRN consistently outperforms state-of-the-art methods across multiple standard deblurring benchmarks.Comprehensive experimental results,assessed through quantitative metrics and qualitative visual evaluations,provide compelling evidence of its effectiveness.The overall deblurring results are available at Google Drive.

文摘Piezoelectric actuators are widely utilized in positioning systems to realize nano-scale resolution. However, the backward motion always generates for some piezoelectric actuators, which reduces the working efficiency. Bionic motions have already been employed in the field of piezoelectric actuators to realize better performance. By imitating the movement form of seals, seal type piezoelectric actuator is capable to realize large operating strokes easily. Nevertheless, the conventional seal type piezoelectric actuator has a complicated structure and control system, which limits further applications. Hence, an improved bionic piezoelectric actuator is proposed to realize a long motion stroke and eliminate backward movement with a simplified structure and control method in this study. The composition and motion principle of the designed actuator are discussed, and the performance is investigated with simulations and experiments. Results confirm that the presented actuator effectively realizes the linear movement that has a large working stroke stably without backward motion. The smallest stepping displacement ΔL is 0.2 μm under 1 Hz and 50 V. The largest motion speed is 900 μm/s with 900 Hz and 120 V. The largest vertical and horizontal load are 250 g and 12 g, respectively. This work shows that the improved bionic piezoelectric actuator is feasible for eliminating backward motion and has a great working ability.

文摘This review summarizes the clinical applications and mechanisms of action of motion-style acupuncture(MSAT)in rehabilitation medicine.Patients are required to perform active or passive movements while the acupuncture needles are inserted.Owing to its effectiveness,MSAT is progressively applied in clinical settings,including musculoskeletal and neurological diseases.Acupuncture and exercise generate syner-gistic effects through interactive mechanisms.From the perspective of the Traditional Chinese Medicine(TCM)theory,needling with movement can trigger the propagation of the needling sensation,thereby enhancing its efficacy in dredging meridians and regulating qi-blood circulation.In modern medicine,these mechanisms include neural inhibition,ischemia/reperfusion,and fascial stimulation propagation.Although the clinical applications and mechanism research of MSAT in rehabilitation medicine have ad-vanced,the mechanisms of MSAT in treating various diseases and the scope of applicable diseases war-rant deeper exploration.This will provide novel therapeutic strategies for clinical applications,thereby advancing the integration and application of TCM therapies with exercise-based interventions.

文摘The study of capture mechanisms with high capture adaptability is the key to improving the efficiency of autonomous underwater vehicle(AUV)retrieval and release.This study aims to develop a capture mechanism for the launch and recovery of AUV and elucidate its kinematic characteristics.Initially,based on the principles of deployment and retraction for AUV capture movements,a design scheme for a novel foldable and deployable capture mechanism is proposed.Subsequently,a detailed analysis of the Degrees of Freedom(DoFs)for enveloping and grasping movements is conducted according to screw theory.Additionally,the structural design of the actuation units for the capture mechanism is thoroughly discussed.Motion screw topology diagram is utilized to construct the kinematic model.On this basis,kinematic simulation verification of the capture mechanism is performed.The theoretical analysis revealed that the DoF for enveloping and grasping movements are 6 and 2,respectively.By appropriately configuring the actuation mechanism,enveloping and grasping movements can be achieved with a single actuation.The displacement and velocity curves of the capture mechanism were smooth,with no interference occurring.Vibration test results validate the reliability of the capture mechanism.The research work provides a valuable reference for the development of novel capture equipment for AUVs.

文摘This article centers on The Call of the Wild,an English novel by American author Jack London,alongside two Chinese translations by Dajie Liu and Menglin Zhang,and Rongyue Liu.Seventy sentences containing motion events and their corresponding translations were randomly selected for analysis.The study focuses on the primary elements of motion events-manner,path,and ground-and examines their Chinese translations through the lens of Skopos theory.Skopos theory emphasizes whether translators can adopt appropriate translation strategies according to various contextual factors during the translation process.Compared to verb-framed languages,satellite-framed languages possess a richer vocabulary for manner verbs,express more detailed manner information,use more satellite words to indicate paths,and incorporate more background information.Verb-framed languages,by contrast,typically express manner information only when necessary and tend to include less background information.The analysis reveals that both Chinese translations embody the core principle of Skopos theory:translation strategies are determined by their purpose.To fulfill the novel’s translation objectives,the translators adeptly adjust their strategies for motion event components based on different contextual needs.It is noted that the Chinese translations do not fully retain the characteristics of English as a typical satellite-framed language.This observation aligns with Skopos theory’s purpose-oriented approach,which prioritizes translation goals over strict adherence to source text characteristics.
