文摘Traditional dynamic analysis of mechanical structures,often limited to individual beams or plates,fails to fully capture their dynamic behaviors.In systems where space and mass are constrained,such as the battery support structures in electric aircraft,conventional absorbers and isolators are insufficient for effective vibration control.This study simplifies the battery support structure of electric aircraft as an integrated composite beam consisting of three interconnected beams,and investigated its structural dynamics properties and nonlinear vibration control under thermal conditions caused by battery heat.The nonlinear vibration control is performed using the Nitinol steel wire ropes(Ni Ti-ST),with nonlinear damping properties.The natural frequencies of system are determined using the Rayleigh-Ritz technique.Theoretical results are validated through both Finite Element Method(FEM)and hammer tests.Moreover,the dynamic equations are derived using the Lagrange method and discretized via the Galerkin Truncation Method(GTM).The Harmonic Balance Method(HBM)is used to evaluate the vibration responses of the integrated model,with further verification through the Runge-Kutta Method(RKM).The experiments are conducted to corroborate the theoretical analysis.The results show that the system frequency changes in stages with the increase of the stiffness of the integrated composite beam connection.Especially in the case of varying environments,as the temperature increases,the frequency of system will first increase to a certain maximum value and then gradually decrease.Furthermore,the NiTi-ST effectively reduces vibration in the integrated composite beam,particularly under varying temperatures and external excitations.

文摘To improve the theoretical prediction accuracy of static mechanical quantities in MEMS cantilever beams for microwave power detection chips,a distributed static model is proposed based on the deflection equation.An analytical frame-work is established through the precise characterization of cantilever beam bending.The framework can accurately extract key electromechanical parameters,and the correlation between these parameters and geometric changes is systematically studied.Results show that the pull-in voltage increases with the gap but decreases with the length.The predicted pull-in voltage indi-cates a relative error of only 6.5%between the distributed static model and the simulation,which is significantly lower than that of the other two models.The overload power and sensitivity are also analyzed to facilitate performance trade-offs in chip design.The measured return loss varies between-66.46 and-10.56 dB over the 8-12 GHz frequency band,exhibiting a charac-teristic V-shaped trend.Moreover,the measured sensitivity of 66.5 fF/W closely matches the theoretical value of 69.3 fF/W,show-ing a relative error of 5.6%.These findings confirm that the distributed model outperforms the other two in terms of both accu-racy and physical realism,thereby providing important reference for the design of microwave power detection chips.

文摘In this study,the dosimetric characteristics(thickness applicability,preheating time,temperature and humidity dependence,in-batch uniformity,readout reproducibility,dose linearity,self-decay,and electron energy response)of engineered polycarbonate films irradiated with an electron beam(0–600 kGy)were investigated using photoluminescence spectroscopy.The results show a linear relationship between photoluminescence intensity and radiation dose when the thickness of the polycarbonate film is 0.3 mm.A higher fluorescence intensity can be obtained by preheating at 60℃ for 180 min before photoluminescence spectrum analysis.As the temperature during spectral testing and the ambient humidity(during and after irradiation)increased,the photoluminescence intensity of the polycarbonate films decreased.The photoluminescence intensity deviation of the polycarbonate films produced within the same batch at 100 kGy is 2.73%.After ten times of repeated excitations and readouts,the coefficients of variation in photoluminescence intensity are less than 8.6%,and the linear correlation coefficient between photoluminescence intensity and irradiation dose is 0.965 in the dose capture range of 20–600 kGy.Within 60 days of irradiation,the photoluminescence intensity of the polycarbonate film decreased to 60%of the initial value.The response of the 0.3 mm polycarbonate films to electron beams with energies exceeding 3.5 MeV does not differ significantly.This comprehensive analysis indicates the potential of polycarbonate films as a high-radiation dose detection material.

文摘Reinforced concrete(RC)beams face potential near-field blast threats as key structural components in building structures.To investigate the failure modes and dynamic responses of RC beams subjected to near-field blast loading,this paper presents both blast tests and numerical simulation studies on RC beams.First,near-field blast tests were conducted on five RC beam specimens under strong and weak-axis bending loading.Then,a refined finite element model of RC beams was established to verify the applicability of the adopted finite element analysis method.Finally,based on the calibrated finite element model,the failure mechanisms of RC beams were explored,and the influence of blast incidence angle on the failure modes and dynamic responses of RC beams was investigated.The results indicate:(i)Near-field blast loading demonstrates pronounced non-uniform distribution patterns.Under strong-axis incidence,clearing effects beyond the mid-span region are more significant than weak-axis incidence,leading to accelerated impulse attenuation.(ii)Three consecutive developmental stages primarily control the damage mechanism of RC beams:stress wave-induced local damage,local deformation causing plastic hinge propagation,and free vibration of the beam;(iii)As the scaled distance decreases,the failure mode of RC beams under weak-axis blast loading evolves from flexural failure to local failure.The resistance mechanism of RC beams under weak-axis blast loading is more prone to transition from compressive membrane action to tensile membrane action,reducing their blast resistance capacity;(iv)As the explosion incident angleθincreases from 0°to 90°,the blast wave-structure interaction transitions from regular reflection to Mach reflection and back to normal reflection,causing the dynamic response of RC beams to first decrease then increase,with corner concrete spalling damage being the primary failure mode.

文摘Ultra-thin glass(UTG)possesses a broad spectrum of applications in high-end electronic devices,such as foldable smartphones and flexible displays.Laser beam shaping for arc cutting UTG screens helps reduce stress concentration,thereby effectively enhancing their safety and longevity.However,the existing three-dimensional(3D)holography algorithms in beam shaping often suffer from high computational complexity and limited flexibility.To address these issues,we propose an iterative holographic algorithm combined with 3D chirp-z transform(3D-CZT)that generates 3D designable multi-foci with 90%light field uniformity.It also effectively corrects spherical aberration caused by refractive index mismatches,while maintaining precise beam shaping throughout the material.Moreover,by focusing on a specific region,the 3D-CZT method reduces the single iteration time to 0.5 seconds,achieving a speed one order of magnitude faster than conventional algorithms.On this basis,customizable glass-edge cutting by shaping the 3D-focused beam within the material is achieved.The glass edge demonstrates high geometric fidelity and remains smooth,mitigating the risk of micro-cracks.This work proposes a sophisticated and efficient methodology for the laser cutting of transparent materials.

文摘The spontaneous conversion of muonium to antimuonium is an interesting charged lepton flavor violation phenomenon that offers a sensitive probe for potential new physics and serves as a tool to constrain the parameter space beyond the Standard Model.The Muonium-to-Antimuonium Conversion Experiment(MACE)was designed to utilize a high-intensity muon beam,a Michel electron magnetic spectrometer,a positron transport system,and a positron detection system to either discover or constrain this rare process with a conversion probability of O(10^(-13)).This article presents an overview of the theoretical framework and a detailed description of the experimental design for muonium-to-antimuonium conversion.

文摘A phase-field model including magnetic field induced dendrite fragmentation was established and applied to the cases with different initial crystal nuclear positions for AA5754 aluminum alloy electromagnetic laser beam welding.Compare the calculated results that include dendrite fragmentation caused by the thermal electromagnetic Lorentz force with the results that consider only the thermal electromagnetic Lorentz force,without fragmentation,at the characteristic time instants.Both in the early and late stages,the small fragmentation at the dendrite tip promotes the number of higher-order branches and their growth,especially in the direction perpendicular to the solidification.The later stage fragmentation has the possibility of breaking one grain into several,which verifies the possibility of grain refinement caused by dendrite fragmentation.The fracture surface caused by fragmentation also makes more solid-liquid interfaces and their growth.In addition,the cases with different initial nuclear positions were compared.The grain growth in the low-temperature zone can be inhibited by the equiaxed grains'fragmentation at the high-temperature area(179.8μm^(2) and 14.7% start at the center,115.4μm^(2) and 9.4% start at the high-temperature corner,134.3μm^(2) and 10.9%start at the low-temperature corner),which is another kind of grain refinement by the dendrite fragmentation.This kind of inhibition effect on grain growth in the low-temperature region will be enhanced with the increasing time interval between the two crystal nuclei’appearance(179.8μm^(2) and 14.7%when virtual grains appear at t=4.3803 s and t=4.3803 s,134.3μm^(2) and 10.9%at t=4.0977 s and t=3.9564 s,and 115.4μm^(2) and 9.4%at t=3.8151 s and t=3.5325 s).

文摘Due to the intrinsic interaction between piezoelectric effects and semiconducting properties,piezoelectric semiconductors(PSs)have great promise for applications in multi-functional electronic devices,requiring a deep understanding of the multi-field coupling behavior.This work investigates the free vibration and buckling characteristics of a PS beam under different mechanical boundary conditions.The coupling fields of a PS beam are modeled by combining the Timoshenko beam theory for mechanical fields with a high-order expansion along the beam thickness for electric fields and carrier distributions.Based on the hypothesis of small perturbation of carrier density,the governing equations and boundary conditions are derived with the principle of virtual work.The differential quadrature method(DQM)is used to solve the boundary-value problem.The analytical solutions for a simply supported-simply supported(SS)PS beam are also obtained for verification.The convergence and correctness of the solutions obtained with the DQM are first evaluated.Subsequently,the effects of initial electron density,boundary conditions,and geometric parameters on the vibration and buckling characteristics are explored through numerical examples,where the finite element simulations are also included.The interaction mechanism of multi-physics fields is revealed.The scale effect on the static and dynamic responses of a PS beam is demonstrated.The derived model and findings are useful for the analysis and design of PS-based devices.

文摘With the development of the semiconductor industry below the 7 nm scale,critical dimension small-angle X-ray scattering(CD-SAXS)has emerged as a powerful tool for quantitatively measuring nanoscale deviations.In this study,the effects of X-ray beam size and photon energy on the accuracy of critical dimension measurements were investigated.Critical dimensions measured using beams with different spot sizes showed different deviations from the expected values.Beam sizes that were either too large or too small did not improve confidence intervals.As the incident energy increased,the X-ray transmission rate increased,while the scattering cross section decreased,resulting in a gradual decrease in the signal-to-noise ratio of the diffraction peaks,which reduced the accuracy of the CD-SAXS measurements.An optimal accuracy was obtained at 12 keV with a smaller beam size.Using an effective trapezoid model,the results yielded an average pitch of 100.4±0.2 nm,width of 49.8±0.2 nm,height of 130.0±0.2 nm,and a sidewall angle below 1.1°±0.1°.These results provide crucial guidance for the future development of CD-SAXS laboratories and the construction of X-ray machines as well as robust support for research in related fields.

文摘In a rapid cycling synchrotron(RCS),the magnetic field is synchronized with the beam energy,creating a highly dynamic magnetic environment.A ceramic chamber with a shielding layer(RF shield),composed of a series of copper strips connected to a capacitor at either end,is typically employed as a vacuum chamber to mitigate eddy current effects and beam coupling impedance.Consequently,the ceramic chamber exhibits a thin-walled multilayered complex structure.Previous theoretical studies have suggested that the impedance of such a structure has a negligible impact on the beam.However,recent impedance measurements of the ceramic chamber in the China Spallation Neutron Source(CSNS)RCS revealed a resonance in the low-frequency range,which was confirmed by further theoretical analysis as a source of beam instability in the RCS.Currently,the magnitude of this impedance cannot be accurately assessed using theoretical calculations.In this study,we used the CST Microwave Studio to confirm the impedance of the ceramic chamber.Further simulations covering six different types of ceramic chambers were conducted to develop an impedance model in the RCS.Additionally,this study investigates the resonant characteristics of the ceramic chamber impedance,finding that the resonant frequency is closely related to the capacitance of the capacitors.This finding provides clear directions for further impedance optimization and is crucial for achieving a beam power of 500 kW for the CSNS Phase-Ⅱ project(CSNS-Ⅱ).However,careful attention must be paid to the voltage across the capacitors.

文摘Chiral magnets have attracted considerable attention due to their intricate magnetic properties,among which B20compounds constitute a quintessential class that has gained significant focus,particularly in the study of skyrmions.MnGe,as a member of the B20 family,exhibits a more complex magnetic structure compared with other materials with similar crystal structures.In this work,we successfully synthesized high-quality MnGe thin films and characterized their magnetoresistance,M-H curves,magneto-Seebeck effect,and magnetic force microscopy(MFM)images,all of which demonstrate pronounced magnetic anisotropy.Notably,the Seebeck coefficient exhibits a plateau at low magnetic fields when the magnetic field is applied in the film plane,indicating a field region in which the magnetic structure remains stable.MFM imaging further reveals magnetic transitions within the MnGe films when the magnetic field is oriented along the film plane.These findings are crucial for advancing our understanding of the magnetic ground state of MnGe and the evolution of its magnetic structure under an applied external magnetic field.

文摘Accurate temperature control and effective oxide removal are essential for achieving high-quality epitaxial growth in molecular beam epitaxy(MBE).However,traditional methods often rely on manual identification of reflection high-energy electron diffraction(RHEED)patterns.This process is heavily influenced by the grower’s experience,leading to issues with reproducibility and limiting the potential for automation.In this report,we propose an unsupervised learning framework for realtime RHEED analysis during the deoxidation process.By incorporating temporal similarity constraints into contrastive learning,our model generates smooth and interpretable feature trajectories that illustrate transitions in the deoxidation state,thus eliminating the need for manual labeling.The model,pre-trained using grouped contrastive loss,shows significant improvement in RHEED feature boundary discrimination and localization of critical regions.We evaluated its generalizability through two transfer learning strategies:calibration-free clustering and few-shot fine-tuning.The pre-trained model achieved a clustering accuracy of 88.1%for GaAs deoxidation samples without additional labels and reached an accuracy of 94.3%to 95.5%after fine-tuning with just five sample pairs across GaAs,Ge,and InAs substrates.This framework is optimized for resource-constrained edge devices,allowing for real-time,plug-and-play integration with existing MBE systems and swift adaptation across various materials and equipment.This work paves the way for greater automation and improved reproducibility in semiconductor manufacturing.
