There are at least three kinds of spatial and temporal nonlinear phenomena appearing synchronously or asynchronously in DBDs, i.e. self-organized patterns, striations and chaos. This paper describes the recent research and progress in understanding the nature of these nonlinear phenomena. Patterns are macroscopic structures with certain spatial and/or temporal periodicities generated through self- organization of microscopic parameters. The physics of patterns in DBDs is mainly associated with lateral dynamic behaviors or the lateral non-local effect of charged particles resulting in the lateral development or non-uniformity of discharge. Striations are ionization waves with unique properties determined by transport phenomena, ionization processes and electron kinetics in current-carrying plasmas. The physics of striations in DBDs is mainly associated with the advances in non-local electron kinetics in spatially inhomogeneous plasmas. Chaos is a kind of random and non-periodic phenomenon occunfng in a determined dynamic system, following a series of certain rules while exhibiting random locomotion, and is regarded as an intrinsic and ubiquitous phenomenon in a nonlinear dynamic system. An evolution trajectory including period-doubling bifurcation to chaos was observed in DBDs or DBD-derived plasmas. In a common sense, it is believed that the formation of all the three nonlinear phenomena in a DBD system should be related to the non-local transversal and/or longitudinal dynamics of space charges （i.e. non-local effect） or the localized electric field interaction. Future work is still needed on the underlying physics and should be directed to pursuing the unification of these nonlinear phenomena in DBD.展开更多

The breakdown process in the sustaining period of the macro-cell was taken by an Intensified Charge Coupled Device（ICCD） with narrow band filters. The mechanism of formation and evolution of the anode striation on SMPDP were investigated. The influence of the width of the electrode, the sustaining voltage, sustaining frequency and the voltage of the shadow mask on the anode striation was also studied. The results showed that the width of the electrodes, the sustaining voltage and frequency had a strong influence on the anode striation. The voltage of the shadow mask, however, hardly affected the anode striation, the firing voltage or the sustaining voltage.展开更多

Fatigue striation spacings and the deviation angles between the direction of micro-crack growth and that of macro-crack growth were quanti- tatively measured on fracture surface using scanning electron microscope. A statistical model of the relationship between striation spacings and fatigue crack propagation rates was developed on the basis of a statistical analysis of the deviation angles, Good agreement between experimental results and theoretical results calculated with the present model was obtained.展开更多

The experimental results show that a discharge channel near the dielectric layer is indispensable to striation occurring in the anode area during a discharge, while the pre-accumulated charge on the dielectric layer and the surface state are not important. The origin of the striation is related only to the physical process in the cell. The dielectric layer acts as a charge collector during a PDP discharge.展开更多

However, without understanding of the mechanism underlying the overall process, the improvement of the cutting quality is restricted. In this paper, an instantaneous melt removal model is presented to describe the process of material removal and striation formation. In the temperature field calculation, melted metal layer is removed when it grows to an assumed thickness. The effects of cutting parameters including cutting speed, gas pressure and laser power on the shape of striation are discussed. A novel method of getting striation free cutting surface is presented. Finally, laser cutting experiments of mild steel is conducted to validate the model. The striation variation trend can be well predicted by the model presented here and the disagreement may be caused by the coupling effect of cutting speed and critical thickness value.展开更多

Using the normal modes theory and combining with the feature of the sound field HLA beamformer, and analyzing the differences of definition and slope in the LOFAR （Low Frequency Analysis Recording） spectrogram between the single-hydrophone and the beamformer, a frequency-adapted optimal-weighted （FAOW） estimate method was obtained by solving a quadratic optimization model with linear equality constraints. The numerical simulation and the experimental data analysis indicated that we can obtain the beamformer signal with the designed optimal array weight which was made up by the Surface-Reflected Bottom-Reflected modes or Non-Surface-Reflected Bottom-Reflected modes. The slope of striations in the signal spectrogram fitted well with the theoretical analysis.展开更多
