It is expressed in terms of the length of the local day time td which is well defined in literatures on meteorological basis. The introduced distribution is also a function of the maximum value of the daily received irradiance qmax. which in turn is expressed in term of the solar constant. This renders the trial to be a closed system. Thus the obtained distribution is not a semi empirical one. Both cases of symmetrical and asymmetrical distributions for q(t) are considered. For its simplicity it can be easily integrated along the length of the day to get the daily totals of solar energy received by unit horizontal area. This is important for practical applications. Comparison between computed according to the present model and published experimental meteorological data in Barcelona (Spain), Hong Kong (China), Jeddah and Makkah (Saudi Arabia) is given as illustrative examples. Better fitting relative to the published trials for the same locations are obtained. The introduced model itself gives good fitting for the intermediate intervals points of the local day time which is the more effective region. The estimated relative error is 12% for Hong Kong, and it is 7% for Barcelona, Jeddah and Makah.展开更多

However, the correlation between the predicted residual stresses and the shot peening coverage, which is a big challenge for the researchers of the symmetrical cell model, is still not established. Based on the dynamic stresses and the residual stresses outputted from the symmetrical cell model, the residual stresses corresponding to full coverage are evalu- ated by normal distribution analysis. The predicted nodal dynamic stresses with respect to four corner points indicate that the equi-biaxial stress state exists only for the first shot impact. Along with the increase of shot number, the interactions of multiple shot impacts make the fluctuation of the nodal dynamic stresses about an almost identical value more and more obvious. The mean values and standard deviations of the residual stresses gradually tend to be stable with the increase of the number of shot peening series. The mean values at each corner point are almost the same after the third peening series, which means that an equi-biaxial stress state corresponding to the full coverage of shot peening is achieved. Therefore, the mean values of the nodal residual stresses with respect to a specific transverse cross-section below the peened surface can be used to correlate the measured data by X-ray. The predicted residual stress profile agrees with the experimental results very well under 200% peening coverage. An effective correlation method is proposed for the nodal residual stresses predicted by the symmetrical cell model and the shot peening coverage.展开更多

Combined with its peculiar charaeteristics, a novel algorithm based on Wigner-Hough transform （WHT） is presented for the deteetion and parameter estimation of this type of waveform. The initial frequency and chirp rate of each segment of this wave are estimated, and the peak-value searching steps in the parameter spaee is given. Compared with Wigner-Ville distribution （WVD）, Pseudo-Wigner-Ville distri- bution （PWD） and Smoothed-Peseudo-Wigner-Ville distribution （SPWD）, WHT has proven itself to be the best method for feature extraetion of symmetrical triangular LFMCW signal. In the end, Monte-Carlo simulations under different SNRs are earried out, with validating results on this method.展开更多

The microwave power is input to the left section of the power sensor, and the DC power is input to the right of the power sensor. Due to the existence of parasitic loss and electromagnetic coupling, the microwave power results in a mismatch error. However, the DC power does not have the mismatch error. So the DC power applied in the right section can calibrate the mismatch error of the microwave power in the left section. The calibration factor is measured at different modulation rates and modulation depths.The measurement results show that the carrier frequency is the major factor influencing the measurement results. After calibration, the carrier frequency and the modulation rate have little effect on the output voltage. The frequency response becomes relatively flat in the frequency range up to 20 GHz, and the sensitivity on average is enhanced by about 0.12 mV/dBm. Therefore, the DC calibration method has a certain reference value for the terminal-type microwave power sensor.展开更多

The worm-like fossil is characterized by modern taxological annelid, for many metameres, parapodia, one possible tentale, an alimentary canal, and a dorsal vessel. The triradiate discoidal fossils belong to Trilobozoa, and the octaradiate discoidal fossil might be Ctenophora. All these fossils indicate that the megascopic metazoans have appeared in the Doushantuoian of Eidacaran and imply that the symmetrical metazoans must have originated at least 550 Ma ago.展开更多

However, the lack of reasonable designs has largely hindered TENG from harvesting energy from both rough and tranquil seas. Herein, a fully symmetrical triboelectric nanogenerator based on an elliptical cylindrical structure(EC-TENG) is proposed for all-weather blue energy harvesting. The novel elliptical cylindrical shell provides a unique selfstability, high sensitivity to wave triggering, and most importantly, an anti-overturning capability for the EC-TENG. Moreover, benefiting from its internal symmetrical design, the EC-TENG can produce energy normally, even if it was overturned under a rude oscillation in the rough seas, which distinguishes this work from previous reported TENGs. The working mechanism and output performance are systematically studied. The as-fabricated EC-TENG is capable of lighting 400 light-emitting diodes and driving small electronics. More than that, an automatic monitoring system powered by the EC-TENG can also monitor the water level in real-time and provide an alarm if necessary. This work presents an innovative and reliable approach toward all-weather wave energy harvesting in actual marine environments.展开更多

She referred to our hospital with finger stiffness, edema of both hands and feet, pain of bilateral shoulder, wrist, metacarpophalangeal, proximal interphalangeal, and ankle joints. Rheumatoid factor was negative, human leukocyte antigen-B7 antigen was positive. Moreover, matrix metalloproteinase 3(MMP-3) was high. She was diagnosed with RS3 PE syndrome, and treatment with prednisolone(15 mg/d) was started. One week after prednisolone treatment initiation, CRP decreased to negative, and joint pain was almost completely resolved. However, hand stiffness persisted, and MMP-3 level was still high. Thus, prednisolone dose was increased to 20 mg/d, and the stiffness resolved. Twenty days after treatment initiation, MMP-3 was normalized. MMP-3 was more indicative of RS3 PE syndrome symptoms than CRP. Thus, MMP-3 seems to be more sensitive to RS3 PE syndrome symptoms.展开更多

On the basis of the invariance of relativistic Birkhotfian equations under general infinitesimal transformations,Lie symmetrical transformations of the system are constructed, which only depend on the Birkhoffian variables. The exact invariants in the form of generalized Hojman conserved quantities led by the Lie symmetries of relativistic Birkhoffian system without perturbations are given. Based on the definition of higher-order adiabatic invariants of a mechanical system, the perturbation of Lie symmetries for relativistic Birkhoffian system with the action of small disturbance is investigated, and a new type of adiabatic invariants of the system is obtained. In the end of the paper, an example is given to illustrate the application of the results.展开更多

The mean values and standard deviations of the residual stresses gradually tend to be stable with the increase of the number of shot peening series. The mean values at each corner point are almost the same after the third peening series, which means that an equi-biaxial stress state corresponding to the full coverage of shot peening is achieved. Therefore, the mean values of the nodal residual stresses with respect to a specific transverse cross-section below the peened surface can be used to correlate the measured data by X-ray. The predicted residual stress profile agrees with the experimental results very well under 200% peening coverage. An effective correlation method is proposed for the nodal residual stresses predicted by the symmetrical cell model and the shot peening coverage.

文摘Feature extraction of symmetrical triangular linear frequency modulation continuous wave （LFM- CW） signal is studied. Combined with its peculiar charaeteristics, a novel algorithm based on Wigner-Hough transform （WHT） is presented for the deteetion and parameter estimation of this type of waveform. The initial frequency and chirp rate of each segment of this wave are estimated, and the peak-value searching steps in the parameter spaee is given. Compared with Wigner-Ville distribution （WVD）, Pseudo-Wigner-Ville distri- bution （PWD） and Smoothed-Peseudo-Wigner-Ville distribution （SPWD）, WHT has proven itself to be the best method for feature extraetion of symmetrical triangular LFMCW signal. In the end, Monte-Carlo simulations under different SNRs are earried out, with validating results on this method.

Firstly, the exact invariants of generalized Hojman type led directly by Lie symmetries for a Lagrange system without perturbations are given. Then, on the basis of the concepts of Lie symmetries and higher order adiabatic invariants of a mechanical system, the perturbation of Lie symmetries for the system with the action of small disturbance is investigated, the adiabatic invariants of generalized Hojman type for the system are directly obtained, the conditions for existence of the adiabatic invariants and their forms are proved.

文摘In order to reduce the mismatch error, a direct current （DC） calibration method is introduced when the modulated microwave signal is measured. The microwave power is input to the left section of the power sensor, and the DC power is input to the right of the power sensor. Due to the existence of parasitic loss and electromagnetic coupling, the microwave power results in a mismatch error. However, the DC power does not have the mismatch error. So the DC power applied in the right section can calibrate the mismatch error of the microwave power in the left section. The calibration factor is measured at different modulation rates and modulation depths.The measurement results show that the carrier frequency is the major factor influencing the measurement results. After calibration, the carrier frequency and the modulation rate have little effect on the output voltage. The frequency response becomes relatively flat in the frequency range up to 20 GHz, and the sensitivity on average is enhanced by about 0.12 mV/dBm. Therefore, the DC calibration method has a certain reference value for the terminal-type microwave power sensor.

文摘In South China, various megascopic symmetrical metazoan fossils were found in the upper Doushantuo （陡山沱） Formation of the Neoproterozoic Ediacaran. The worm-like fossil is characterized by modern taxological annelid, for many metameres, parapodia, one possible tentale, an alimentary canal, and a dorsal vessel. The triradiate discoidal fossils belong to Trilobozoa, and the octaradiate discoidal fossil might be Ctenophora. All these fossils indicate that the megascopic metazoans have appeared in the Doushantuoian of Eidacaran and imply that the symmetrical metazoans must have originated at least 550 Ma ago.

文摘Triboelectric nanogenerators(TENGs) have shown promising potential for large-scale blue energy harvesting. However, the lack of reasonable designs has largely hindered TENG from harvesting energy from both rough and tranquil seas. Herein, a fully symmetrical triboelectric nanogenerator based on an elliptical cylindrical structure(EC-TENG) is proposed for all-weather blue energy harvesting. The novel elliptical cylindrical shell provides a unique selfstability, high sensitivity to wave triggering, and most importantly, an anti-overturning capability for the EC-TENG. Moreover, benefiting from its internal symmetrical design, the EC-TENG can produce energy normally, even if it was overturned under a rude oscillation in the rough seas, which distinguishes this work from previous reported TENGs. The working mechanism and output performance are systematically studied. The as-fabricated EC-TENG is capable of lighting 400 light-emitting diodes and driving small electronics. More than that, an automatic monitoring system powered by the EC-TENG can also monitor the water level in real-time and provide an alarm if necessary. This work presents an innovative and reliable approach toward all-weather wave energy harvesting in actual marine environments.

文摘Symmetrical solid oxide fuel cells(SSOFCs)could be alternative energy conversion devices due to their simple fabrication process and low cost.Herein,perovskite La_(0.6)Ce_(0.1)Sr_(0.3)Fe_(0.95)Ru_(0.05O3-δ)(LCSFR)was synthesized and evaluated as a high-performance electrode for SSOFCs based on the electrolyte of La_(0.9)Sr_(0.1)Ga_(0.8)Mg_(0.2)O_(3-δ)(LSGM).LCSFR retains their stable perovskite crystal structure in both reducing and oxidizing atmospheres,though a minor amount of LaSrFeO4 phase is present under reducing conditions.Morphology investigation shows that homogeneously dispersed Ru metallic nanoparticles are exsolved on the surface of LCSFR after being reduced.The polarization resistance(Rp)of LCSFR-CGO(Ce_(0.9)Gd_(0.1O2-δ))is about 0.11Ω·cm^(2)at 800℃in air,while the value of Rp for LCSFR-CGO in wet H_(2)(3%H_(2)O)increases up to 0.32Ω·cm^(2).The symmetrical LCSFR-CGOILSGMILCSFR-CGO cell demonstrates a performance with an open circuit potential(OCV)of 1.07 V and a maximum peak power density of 904 mW/cm^(2)at 800℃using wet H2 as the fuel.This high performance indicates that LCSFR is a candidate electrode for SSOFCs.
文摘We report a case of remitting seronegative symmetrical synovitis with pitting edema(RS3 PE) syndrome in a 71-year-old woman. She referred to our hospital with finger stiffness, edema of both hands and feet, pain of bilateral shoulder, wrist, metacarpophalangeal, proximal interphalangeal, and ankle joints. Rheumatoid factor was negative, human leukocyte antigen-B7 antigen was positive. Moreover, matrix metalloproteinase 3(MMP-3) was high. She was diagnosed with RS3 PE syndrome, and treatment with prednisolone(15 mg/d) was started. One week after prednisolone treatment initiation, CRP decreased to negative, and joint pain was almost completely resolved. However, hand stiffness persisted, and MMP-3 level was still high. Thus, prednisolone dose was increased to 20 mg/d, and the stiffness resolved. Twenty days after treatment initiation, MMP-3 was normalized. MMP-3 was more indicative of RS3 PE syndrome symptoms than CRP. Thus, MMP-3 seems to be more sensitive to RS3 PE syndrome symptoms.

文摘For a relativistic Birkhoffian system, the Lie symmetrical perturbation and adiabatic invariants of generalized Bojman type are studied under general infinitesimal transformations. On the basis of the invariance of relativistic Birkhotfian equations under general infinitesimal transformations,Lie symmetrical transformations of the system are constructed, which only depend on the Birkhoffian variables. The exact invariants in the form of generalized Hojman conserved quantities led by the Lie symmetries of relativistic Birkhoffian system without perturbations are given. Based on the definition of higher-order adiabatic invariants of a mechanical system, the perturbation of Lie symmetries for relativistic Birkhoffian system with the action of small disturbance is investigated, and a new type of adiabatic invariants of the system is obtained. In the end of the paper, an example is given to illustrate the application of the results.
