Methods Multirobot cooperation theory is used in the whole study process. Inverse kinematics of the robot is used to form a desired configuration in the cooperation process. Static equations are established to analyze the relations between the friction factor, the configuration of robots and the maximum height of a stair. Kinematics analysis is used to find the restrictions of the two collaborative robots in position, velocity and acceleration. Results 3D simulation shows that the two cooperative robots can climb up a stair under the condition of a certain height and a certain friction factor between robot wheel and the surface of the stair. Following the restrictions of kinematics, the climbing mission is fulfilled successfully and smoothly. Conclusion The maximum height of a stair, which the two cooperative robots can climb up, is involved in the configuration of robots, friction factor between the stair and the robots. The most strict restriction of the friction factor does not appear in the horizontal position. In any case, the maximum height is smaller than half of the distance between the centroid of robot1 with the centroid of robot2. However, the height can be higher than the radius of one robot wheel, which profit from the collaboration.展开更多

The interactions between H and small H-vacancy clusters are also demonstrated; the binding energies of an H, a vacancy and a self-interstitial W to an H-vacancy cluster depend on the H-to-vacancy ratio. We conclude that H bubble formation needs a high concentration of H in W for the H bubble nucleation and growth, which are also governed by the H-to-vacancy ratio of the cluster. The vacancy first combines with H atoms and a cluster forms, then the H-vacancy cluster goes through the whole process of vacancy capture, H capture, and vacancy capture again, and as a result the H-vacancy cluster grows larger and larger. Finally, the H bubble forms.展开更多

This study presents a new two-noded curved finite element for analyzing the in-plane static behaviors of curved nanobeams. Opposite to traditional curved finite elements developed by using approximate interpolation functions, the proposed curved finite element is developed by using exact analytical solutions. Although this approach was first introduced for analyzing the mechanical behaviors of macro-scale curved beams by adopting the local theory of elasticity, the exact analytical expressions used in this study were obtained from the solutions of governing equations that were expressed via the differential form of the nonlocal theory of elasticity. Therefore, the effects of shear strain and axial extension included in the analytical formulation are also inherited by the curved finite element developed here. The rigidity matrix and the consistent force vector are developed for a circular finite element. To demonstrate the applicability of the method, static analyses of various curved nanobeams subjected to different boundary conditions and loading scenarios are performed, and the obtained results are compared with the exact analytical ones. The presented study provides an accurate and low computational cost method for researchers to investigate the in-plane static behavior of curved nanobeams.展开更多

In New Tired Light (NTL), redshifts are produced by the photons of light interacting with these self-same electrons and so, one would expect a direct relationship between the DM of an FRB and the redshift of the host galaxy. However, workers in this field assume expansion and weight the DM by dividing it by the scale factor (1 + z) to allow for expansion. Once this weighting is removed, it was predicted back in 2016 (when the first FRB was localized) and later presented at a conference and published in the proceedings that, as more FRB’s were localized, a graph of DM versus ln(1 + z) would be a straight line of gradient (mec/2hre) or 7.32 × 1025 m−2 in SI units. The original paper had twenty-four data points but this has risen significantly to sixty-four useable FRB’s and so this corrigendum updates that paper so that all sixty-four are used. The data give a straight-line graph of gradient 7.12 × 1025 m−2, a difference of 3% from (mec/2hre) predicted nine years earlier.展开更多

文摘In recent decades,control performance monitoring(CPM)has experienced remarkable progress in research and industrial applications.While CPM research has been investigated using various benchmarks,the historical data benchmark(HIS)has garnered the most attention due to its practicality and effectiveness.However,existing CPM reviews usually focus on the theoretical benchmark,and there is a lack of an in-depth review that thoroughly explores HIS-based methods.In this article,a comprehensive overview of HIS-based CPM is provided.First,we provide a novel static-dynamic perspective on data-level manifestations of control performance underlying typical controller capacities including regulation and servo:static and dynamic properties.The static property portrays time-independent variability in system output,and the dynamic property describes temporal behavior driven by closed-loop feedback.Accordingly,existing HIS-based CPM approaches and their intrinsic motivations are classified and analyzed from these two perspectives.Specifically,two mainstream solutions for CPM methods are summarized,including static analysis and dynamic analysis,which match data-driven techniques with actual controlling behavior.Furthermore,this paper also points out various opportunities and challenges faced in CPM for modern industry and provides promising directions in the context of artificial intelligence for inspiring future research.
文摘Herein,a one-pot chemical reduction method was reported to prepare folic acid(FA)-stabilized silver nanoclusters(FA@Ag NCs),in which FA,hydrazine hydrate,and silver nitrate were used as capping agent,reducing agent,and precursor,respectively.Several technologies were employed to investigate the structures and optical properties of FA@Ag NCs,including transmission electron microscopy(TEM),X-ray photoelectron spectrometer(XPS),Fourier transform infrared spectrometer(FTIR),X-ray diffractometer(XRD),fluorescence spectrometer,and ultraviolet visible absorption spectrometer.FA@Ag NCs were suggested to be highly dispersed and spherical with a size of around 2.8 nm.Moreover,the maximum excitation and emission wavelengths of FA@Ag NCs were 370 and 447 nm,respectively.Under the optimal detection conditions,FA@Ag NCs could be used to effectively detect malachite green with the linear detection range of 0.5-200μmol·L^(-1).The detection limit was 0.084μmol·L^(-1).The fluorescence-quenching mechanism was ascribed to the static quenching.The detection system based on FA@AgNCs was successfully used for the detection of malachite green in actual samples with good accuracy and reproducibility.

文摘Due to their superior properties, the interest in nanostructures is increasing today in engineering. This study presents a new two-noded curved finite element for analyzing the in-plane static behaviors of curved nanobeams. Opposite to traditional curved finite elements developed by using approximate interpolation functions, the proposed curved finite element is developed by using exact analytical solutions. Although this approach was first introduced for analyzing the mechanical behaviors of macro-scale curved beams by adopting the local theory of elasticity, the exact analytical expressions used in this study were obtained from the solutions of governing equations that were expressed via the differential form of the nonlocal theory of elasticity. Therefore, the effects of shear strain and axial extension included in the analytical formulation are also inherited by the curved finite element developed here. The rigidity matrix and the consistent force vector are developed for a circular finite element. To demonstrate the applicability of the method, static analyses of various curved nanobeams subjected to different boundary conditions and loading scenarios are performed, and the obtained results are compared with the exact analytical ones. The presented study provides an accurate and low computational cost method for researchers to investigate the in-plane static behavior of curved nanobeams.

文摘Rotary steering systems(RSSs)have been increasingly used to develop horizontal wells.A static push-the-bit RSS uses three hydraulic modules with varying degrees of expansion and contraction to achieve changes in the pushing force acting on the wellbore in different sizes and directions within a circular range,ultimately allowing the wellbore trajectory to be drilled in a predetermined direction.By analyzing its mathematical principles and the actual characteristics of the instrument,a vector force closed-loop control method,including steering and holding modes,was designed.The adjustment criteria for the three hydraulic modules are determined to achieve rapid adjustment of the vector force.The theoretical feasibility of the developed method was verified by comparing its results with the on-site application data of an imported rotary guidance system.

文摘Understanding the reinforcement effect of the newly developed prestressed reinforcement components(PRCs)(a system composed of prestressed steel bars(PSBs),protective sleeves,lateral pressure plates(LPPs),and anchoring elements)is technically significant for the rational design of prestressed subgrade.A three-dimensional finite element model was established and verified based on a novel static model test and utilized to systematically analyze the influence of prestress levels and reinforcement modes on the reinforcement effect of the subgrade.The results show that the PRCs provide additional confining pressure to the subgrade through the diffusion effect of the prestress,which can therefore effectively improve the service performance of the subgrade.Compared to the unreinforced conventional subgrades,the settlements of prestressreinforced subgrades are reduced.The settlement attenuation rate(Rs)near the LPPs is larger than that at the subgrade center,and increasing the prestress positively contributes to the stability of the subgrade structure.In the multi-row reinforcement mode,the reinforcement effect of PRCs can extend from the reinforced area to the unreinforced area.In addition,as the horizontal distance from the LPPs increases,the additional confining pressure converted by the PSBs and LPPs gradually diminishes when spreading to the core load bearing area of the subgrade,resulting in a decrease in the Rs.Under the singlerow reinforcement mode,PRCs can be strategically arranged according to the local areas where subgrade defects readily occurred or observed,to obtain the desired reinforcement effect.Moreover,excessive prestress should not be applied near the subgrade shoulder line to avoid the shear failure of the subgrade shoulder.PRCs can be flexibly used for preventing and treating various subgrade defects of newly constructed or existing railway lines,achieving targeted and classified prevention,and effectively improving the bearing performance and deformation resistance of the subgrade.The research results are instructive for further elucidating the prestress reinforcement effect of PRCs on railway subgrades.

文摘The flocculation behavior of carbon black (CB)-filled isoprene rubber (IR) nanocomposites was systematically investigated under both dynamic and static conditions to unravel the distinct mechanisms governing filler network evolution.Under dynamic conditions,small oscillatory shear strains (0.1%) significantly enhanced filler particle motion,leading to pronounced agglomeration and a flocculation degree of about 4.3MPa at 145℃.In contrast,static flocculation exhibited a fundamentally different mechanism dominated by polymer chain dynamics,which is driven mainly by thermal activation.Radial distribution function (RDF) analysis of transmission electron microscopy (TEM) images revealed a slight decrease (2 nm) in the interparticle distance peak after static annealing at 100℃ for 7 h,indicating localized motion of CB particles.However,the overall filler network remained stable,with no significant agglomeration observed.The increase in bound rubber content from about 23% to 28% with rising temperature further confirmed the dominant role of polymer chain adsorption and interfacial reinforcement in static flocculation.These findings highlight the critical influence of external strain on filler network formation and provide new insights into the polymer-dominated mechanism of static flocculation.The results offer practical guidance for optimizing the storage and processing of rubber nanocomposites,particularly in applications where static flocculation during prolonged storage is a concern.

文摘Hydrocolloids are widely used in meat products and pureed foods as they offer thickening and viscosityenhancing effects that facilitate shaping and improve stability.In this study,the static shear rheological and dynamic viscoelastic properties of pumpkin puree(S)and pork mince(P)with the addition of various hydrocolloids were considered.Dedicated material printing experiments were conducted by means of a three-dimensional printing platform by using a coaxial dual-nozzle for sandwich composite printing of four different materials.In particular,the impact of different process parameters(printing speed 10~30 mm/s,filling density 10%~50%)was assessed in terms of 3D printing adaptability and final shape of the pumpkin puree-pork mince products.The results have indicated that the addition of hydrocolloids significantly improves the rheological properties of these materials,enhancing their stability in the 3D printing process.Experiments have revealed that with an increase in the xanthan gum conte nt,the viscosity of pumpkin puree decreases.The relationship between the elastic modulus and viscous modulus for the minced pork follows the inequality P4<P3<P2<P1(1.17%,1.75%,2.13%,and 2.88%xanthan gum content,respectively).A“material formula”(detailed composition of the material)suitable for 3D food printing has been derived accordingly.
文摘Dispersion measure in an FRB’s signal is produced by the photons of the radio waves interacting with the free electrons in the IGM. In New Tired Light (NTL), redshifts are produced by the photons of light interacting with these self-same electrons and so, one would expect a direct relationship between the DM of an FRB and the redshift of the host galaxy. However, workers in this field assume expansion and weight the DM by dividing it by the scale factor (1 + z) to allow for expansion. Once this weighting is removed, it was predicted back in 2016 (when the first FRB was localized) and later presented at a conference and published in the proceedings that, as more FRB’s were localized, a graph of DM versus ln(1 + z) would be a straight line of gradient (mec/2hre) or 7.32 × 1025 m−2 in SI units. The original paper had twenty-four data points but this has risen significantly to sixty-four useable FRB’s and so this corrigendum updates that paper so that all sixty-four are used. The data give a straight-line graph of gradient 7.12 × 1025 m−2, a difference of 3% from (mec/2hre) predicted nine years earlier.

文摘The accuracy of the full-scale aircraft static tests is greatly influenced by the aircraft attitude.This paper proposes an aircraft attitude optimization method based on the characteristics of the test.The aim is to address three typical problems of ttitude control in the full-scale aircraft static tests:(1)The coupling of rigid-body displacement and elastic deformation after large deformation,(2)the difficulty of characterizing the aircraft attitude by measurable structure,and(3)the insufficient adaptability of the center of gravity reference to complex loading conditions.The methodology involves the establishment of two observation coordinate systems,a ground coordinate system and an airframe coordinate system,and two deformation states,before and after airframe deformation.A subsequent analysis of the parameter changes of these two states under different coordinate systems is then undertaken,with the objective being to identify the key parameters affecting the attitude control accuracy of large deformation aircraft.Three optimization objective functions are established according to the test loading characteristics and the purpose of the test:(1)To minimize the full-scale aircraft loading angle error,(2)to minimize the full-scale aircraft loading additional load,and(3)to minimize the full-scale aircraft loading wing root additional bending moment.The optimization calculation results are obtained by using the particle swarm optimization algorithm,and the typical full-scale aircraft static test load condition of large passenger aircraft is taken as an example.The analysis of the results demonstrates that by customizing the measurable structure of the aircraft as the observation point for the aircraft attitude,and by obtaining the translational and rotational control parameters of the observation point during the test based on the optimization objective function,the results are reasonable,and the project can be implemented and used to control the aircraft's attitude more accurately in complex force test conditions.
