文摘The rapid development of wind energy in the power sectors raises the question about the reliability of wind turbines for power system planning and operation.The electrical subsystem of wind turbines(ESWT),which is one of the most vulnerable parts of the wind turbine,is investigated in this paper.The hygrothermal aging of power electronic devices(PEDs)is modeled for the first time in the comprehensive reliability evaluation of ESWT,by using a novel stationary“circuit-like”approach.First,the failure mechanism of the hygrothermal aging,which includes the solder layer fatigue damage and packaging material performance degradation,is explained.Then,a moisture diffusion resistance concept and a hygrothermal equivalent circuit are proposed to quantitate the hygrothermal aging behavior.A conditional probability function is developed to calculate the time-varying failure rate of PEDs.At last,the stochastic renewal process is simulated to evaluate the reliability for ESWT through the sequential Monte Carlo simulation,in which failure,repair,and replacement states of devices are all included.The effectiveness of our proposed reliability evaluation method is verified on an ESWT in a 2 MW wind turbine use time series data collected from a wind farm in China.

文摘Micro/nano devices(MNDs)are characterized by miniaturization,high precision,and multifunctional integration,making them highly suitable for use in areas such as microrobotics,biomedical devices and electronic sensors.Their fabrication requires exceptional precision in structural integrity,material control,and functional integration.Traditional micro/nano fabrication techniques face inherent limitations in constructing complex three-dimensional(3D)architectures and integrating multiple materials.While additive manufacturing(AM)provides flexibility,challenges remain in material alignment control,microstructural organization,and multifunctional integration.To overcome these limitations,field-assisted additive manufacturing(FAM)has emerged as a promising approach that combines magnetic,acoustic,or electric fields to regulate material alignment,microstructural organization,and spatial alignment.This capability improves fabrication precision,enhances material anisotropy and facilitates functional integration.This review systematically explores the mechanisms,fabrication process,and functional integration of FAM in the framework of nozzle-based and vat photopolymerization-based,while further exploring their applications in microrobotics,biomedical devices,and electronic sensors.Moreover,this review provides a comparative overview of different FAM approaches,highlighting their respective characteristics,typical applications,and unique advantages.In addition,the major challenges facing FAM research are comprehensively assessed and future directions are explored,including advances in spatial precision control capability,intelligent control for process integration,and multi-field coupling optimization.This review establishes a foundational theoretical framework that can serve as a systematic reference for micro/nano manufacturing researchers to promote the development of FAM for high-performance micro/nano device fabrication.

文摘Silver bismuth sulfide(AgBiS_(2))has recently attracted increasing attention as a promising environmentally friendly semiconductor for next-generation optoelectronic applications,including photovoltaics and photodetection,due to its favorable energy band structure,strong light absorption,high dielectric constant,and low toxicity.Despite notable advances,research on AgBiS_(2) remains in its early stages,with key challenges related to synthetic control,defect passivation,and device engineering.For example,while the power conversion efficiency of AgBiS_(2)-based solar cells has improved rapidly,the current record efficiency of 10.84%remains far below the theoretical Shockley-Queisser limit(-26%).Similarly,AgBiS_(2)-based photodetectors exhibit detectivities around 10^(12)Jones,lagging behind state-of-the-art materials.This review provides a comprehensive summary of recent advances in the crystal structures,synthetic strategies,optoelectronic properties,and device architectures of AgBiS_(2).We highlight key achievements in solar cells,photodetectors,and thin-film transistors,while critically analyzing the remaining bottlenecks in material synthesis,defect modulation,and charge transport optimization.Finally,the broader application potential of AgBiS_(2) in flexible electronics,infrared imaging,buildingintegrated photovoltaics,photocatalysis,spintronics,and biomedicine is discussed.By offering insights into both current progress and future directions,this review aims to support the development of highperformance,multifunctional AgBiS_(2)-based optoelectronic devices.

文摘Main cable displacement-controlled devices(DCDs)are key components for coordinating the vertical deformation of the main cable and main girder in the side span of continuous suspension bridges.To reveal the mechanical action mechanisms of DCD on bridge structures,a three-span continuous suspension bridge was taken as the engineering background in this study.The influence of different forms of DCD on the internal force and displacement of the components in the side span of the bridge and the structural dynamic characteristics were explored through numerical simulations.The results showed that the lack of DCD caused the main cable and main girder to have large vertical displacements.The stresses of other components were redistributed,and the safety factor of the suspenders at the side span was greatly reduced.The setting of DCD improved the vertical stiffness of the structure.The rigid DCD had larger internal forces,but its control effect on the internal forces at the side span was slightly better than that of the flexible DCD.Both forms of DCD effectively coordinated the deformation of the main cable and main girder and the stress distribution of components in the side span area.The choice of DCD form depends on the topographic factors of bridge sites and the design requirements of related components at the side span.

文摘Pump valve pipeline vibration brings serious safety hazards to the operation of the equipment,for the pump valve system in the process of variable flow,variable speed,variable openings lead to excessive pipeline vibration.An active damping device(ADD)is used to the vibration of the pump valve pipeline system to apply the control force,to achieve the active control of the pipeline vibration.A pump-valve pipeline vibration test bench was built to compare the control effect of active damping device on pipeline vibration under different pump valve working conditions,and the results show that applying ADD control could effectively suppress the vibration of the pump valve pipeline and enhance the stability of the equipment during operation.At different pump operating rotation frequencies,the vibration amplitude of the pump valve pipeline in working frequency and its multiple frequencies are also effectively suppressed,with the maximum amplitude reduction of more than 60%.For the valve vibration caused by different operating openings,the vibration of the highest reduction of 68%,and the centrifugal pump drive shaft vi-bration reduced by up to 73%,which provides a new idea for vibration control of pump valve pipeline system.
