For the satellite-borne rotors' low working revs and large centroidal deviation and height, and that the horizontal vibration produced by centrifugal force is not of the same magnitude as the torsional vibration by overturning moment, the balancing machine's measurement accuracy is low. Analysis shows that the mixture of horizontal vibration and torsional vibration of the vibrational mechanism contribute mainly to the machine's performance, as well as the instability of vibration center position. A vibrational mechanism was put forward, in which the horizontal and torsional vibration get separated effectively by way of fixing the vibration center. From experimental results, the separation between the weak centrifugal force signal and the strong moment signal was realized, errors caused by unstable vibration center are avoided, and the balancing machine based on this vibration structure is able to meet the requirements of dynamic balancing for the satellite's rotating payloads in terms of accuracy and stability.展开更多

In this study, we investigate the electric field control of resistance and magnetization in a magnetoelectric heterostructure comprising an electronic phase-separated La0.325Pr0.3Ca0.375MnO3(LPCMO) thin film and a ferroelectric(011)-oriented 0.7Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-0.3PbTiO3(PMN-PT) substrate. In a room-temperature poled sample, the metal-toinsulator transition temperature of an LPCMO film increases and the resistance decreases with variation in the effect of the remnant strain. Meanwhile, the increase in the magnetization of the sample is observed as well. This effect would be beneficial for the development of novel storage devices with low power consumption.展开更多

Its main advantage is its capability to learn multiple fault subspaces directly from the observation signal itself. It can also sparsely concentrate the feature information into a few dominant subspace coefficients. Furthermore, it can eliminate noise by simply performing coefficient shrinkage operations.
