However, traditional texture synthesis techniques eInphasize creation of optimal target textures, and pay insufficient attention to choice of suitable input texture exemplars. Currently, of taining texture exemplars from natural images is a labor intensive task for the artists, requiring careful photography and significant post- processing. In this paper, we present an automatic texture exemplar extraction method based on global and local textureness measures. To improve the efficiency of dominant texture identification, we first perform Poisson disk sampling to randomly and uniformly erop patches from a natural image. For global textureness assessment, we use a GIST descriptor to distinguish textured t）atches from non-textured patches, in conjunction with SVM prediction. To identify real texture, exemplars consisting solely of the dominant texture, we further measure the local textureness of a patch by extracting and matching the local structure （using t）inary Gabor pattern （BGP）） and dominant color features （using color histograms） between a patch and its sub-regions. Finally, we obtain optimal texture exemplars by scoring and ranking extracted patches using these global and local textureness measures We evaluate our method on a variety of images with different kinds of textures. A convincing visual comparison with textures mauually selected by an artist and a statistical study demonstrate its effectiveness.展开更多

文摘The deformation behavior of GH4169 superalloy under room-temperature uniaxial tension was investigated through synchronized mesoscopic digital image correlation(DIC)and electron backscatter diffraction(EBSD)in-situ characterization techniques.Results show that in the field of grain deflection dynamics,through quantitative analysis using the independently developed M-DIC software,during uniaxial tension with significant bidirectional rotation along the tensile axis and the stress level of 1100 MPa,oscillatory rotation of±0.6°can be obtained,and microvoids are generated at the grain boundaries with 45°to the stress axis.EBSD crystallographic analysis demonstrates the load-dependent slip system evolution:in the initial stage,the soft-oriented systems with high Schmid factor(>0.4)is activated and then transformed into hard-oriented systems during cross-slip,generating parallel slip bands and dislocation pile-ups at grain boundaries.During the uniaxial tensile process,the characteristic of strain energy accumulation is observed,which follows a two-stage accumulation pattern:initial grain boundary localization(Stage I)and intragranular propagation(Stage II).Ultimately,the intergranular cracks are initiated at triple junctions,and the twin boundaries exhibit superior mechanical stability compared with the large-angle grain boundaries.Deformation texture characteristics indicate the copper-type components,including C{112}<111¯>,S{123}<634¯>,and B{110}<11¯0>.The complete deformation sequence is as follows:cross-slip of soft-oriented slip systems→initiation of dislocation slip→strain partitioning through grain rotation→intergranular stress concentration→damage dominated by boundary cracking.The cross-scale deformation mechanism revealed in this study provides critical guidance for the crystal boundary engineering to optimize nickel-based superalloys.

文摘Texture and grain structure evolution during annealing and their effects on tensile strength and anisotropy were studied using XRD,DSC,SEM,EBSD and TEM.The results indicate that elevated rolling temperatures reduce the f(g)_(max(Copper))/f(g)_(max(Brass))ratio,increase S-Brass fine bands,and promote S-dispersoid precipitation,leading to finer recrystallized grains.Dominant recrystallization textures transform from Goss+P to Goss and then to Goss+Cube with increasing rolling temperature.Annealing at 350℃shows four tensile strength response stages:fast softening I,rapid strengthening II,slow strengthening III,and slow softening IV.The transition from Stages I to II is driven by the formation of strong Goss and P textures,and Stage IV is linked to enhanced Cube texture.Plates with Goss+Cube textures and fine equiaxed grains exhibit the lowest YS/UTS ratio and minimal anisotropy.

文摘[Objectives]This study was conducted to establish a quantitative assessment method for the textural quality of chieh-qua fruit.[Methods]Using two modes of a texture analyzer,namely TPA(texture profile analysis)and puncture,the index data of the fruit were obtained by setting different trigger forces,deformation levels,test speeds,as well as puncture speeds and puncture depths.The data included TPA hardness,adhesiveness,springiness,cohesiveness,gumminess,chewiness,resilience,as well as skin hardness,skin toughness,flesh hardness,fracturability,and compactness.[Results]Different deformation levels had a significant impact on all parameters.Hardness,adhesiveness,gumminess and chewiness showed a trend of first increasing and then decreasing with the deformation level increasing.When the deformation level was 30%,the adhesiveness,gumminess and chewiness reached their maximum values.When the deformation level was 50%,TPA hardness reached its maximum.When the compression speed was 3 mm/s,the measured values of TPA hardness,adhesiveness,chewiness,and resilience were at their maximums.The skin hardness varied significantly under different trigger forces.When the trigger force was 15 g,the skin hardness reached a maximum value of 944.63 g,and the skin toughness,flesh hardness,fracturability,and compactness also reach their maximum values respectively.When the puncture depth was 12 mm,the flesh hardness and skin toughness reached their maximums of 682.51 g and 1.82 mm,respectively.In the TPA mode,the flesh hardness of chieh-qua showed an extremely significant negative correlation with springiness,cohesiveness,and resilience(P<0.01).The fruit fracturability detected by puncture had an extremely significant positive correlation with compactness(P<0.01).[Conclusions]The evaluation method for measuring chieh-qua texture by combining TPA and the puncture mode could accurately and quantitatively reflect the differences in the flesh texture quality of chieh-qua.The optimal parameters for texture measurement of chieh-qua fruit were determined as a 15 g trigger force with 50%deformation and a 3 mm/s compression speed in TPA mode,and a 15 g trigger force with a 12 mm puncture depth in puncture mode.Puncture speed was found to have no significant effect on the texture indices of chieh-qua.

文摘The performance of hematite(α-Fe_(2)O_(3))photoanodes for photoelectrochemical(PEC)water splitting has been limited to around 2-5 mA cm^(-2)under standard conditions due to their short hole diffusion length and sluggish oxygen evolution reaction kinetics.This work overcomes those challenges through a synergistic strategy that co-designs the hematite architecture and the surface reaction pathway.We introduce a textured and hierarchically porous Ti-doped Fe_(2)O_(3)(tp-Fe_(2)O_(3))photoanode,synthesized via multi-cycle growth and flame annealing method.This unique architecture features a high texture(110),enlarged surface area,and hierarchically porous structure,which enable significantly enhanced bulk charge transport and interfacial charge transfer compared to typical nanorod Ti-doped Fe_(2)O_(3)(nr-Fe_(2)O_(3)).As a result,the tp-Fe_(2)O_(3)photoanode achieves a photocurrent density of 3.1 mA cm^(-2)at 1.23 V vs.RHE with exceptional stability over 105 h,notably without any co-catalyst.By replacing the OER with the hydrazine oxidation reaction,the photocurrent further reaches a record-high level of 7.1 mA cm^(-2)at 1.23 V_(RHE).Finally,when we integrate the tp-Fe_(2)O_(3)with a commercial Si solar cell,it achieves a solar-to-hydrogen efficiency of 8.7%-the highest reported value for any Fe_(2)O_(3)-based PVtandem system.This work provides critical insights into rational Fe_(2)O_(3)photoanode design and highlights the potential of hydrazine as an efficient alternative anodic reaction,enabling waste valorization.

文摘The 6D pose estimation of objects is of great significance for the intelligent assembly and sorting of industrial parts.In the industrial robot production scenarios,the 6D pose estimation of industrial parts mainly faces two challenges:one is the loss of information and interference caused by occlusion and stacking in the sorting scenario,the other is the difficulty of feature extraction due to the weak texture of industrial parts.To address the above problems,this paper proposes an attention-based pixel-level voting network for 6D pose estimation of weakly textured industrial parts,namely CB-PVNet.On the one hand,the voting scheme can predict the keypoints of affected pixels,which improves the accuracy of keypoint localization even in scenarios such as weak texture and partial occlusion.On the other hand,the attention mechanism can extract interesting features of the object while suppressing useless features of surroundings.Extensive comparative experiments were conducted on both public datasets(including LINEMOD,Occlusion LINEMOD and T-LESS datasets)and self-made datasets.The experimental results indicate that the proposed network CB-PVNet can achieve accuracy of ADD(-s)comparable to state-of-the-art using only RGB images while ensuring real-time performance.Additionally,we also conducted robot grasping experiments in the real world.The balance between accuracy and computational efficiency makes the method well-suited for applications in industrial automation.

文摘A new method was proposed for preparing AZ31/1060 composite plates with a corrugated interface,which involved cold-pressing a corrugated surface on the Al plate and then hot-pressing the assembled Mg/Al plate.The results show that cold-pressing produces intense plastic deformation near the corrugated surface of the Al plate,which promotes dynamic recrystallization of the Al substrate near the interface during the subsequent hot-pressing.In addition,the initial corrugation on the surface of the Al plate also changes the local stress state near the interface during hot pressing,which has a large effect on the texture components of the substrates near the corrugated interface.The construction of the corrugated interface can greatly enhance the shear strength by 2−4 times due to the increased contact area and the strong“mechanical gearing”effect.Moreover,the mechanical properties are largely depended on the orientation relationship between corrugated direction and loading direction.

文摘The microstructure and mechanical properties of ZK60 extruded alloy by rapid solidification(RS)and as-cast ingot processes were investigated using optical microscope,scanning electron microscope,X-ray diffraction,electron back-scatter diffraction,and mechanical tests.The results show that the RS ZK60 extruded alloy exhibits relatively high tensile yield strength(TYS),compressive yield strength(CYS)and elongation of 300.8 MPa,303.6 MPa and 18.6%,respectively.The RS ZK60 extruded alloy with an ultra-fine grain size of 1.28μm not only has a weak texture with a maximum polar density of 3.3 but also addresses the tension-compression asymmetry with a CYS/TYS ratio of approximately 1.0.The calculation of the strengthening mechanism indicates that the improvement in the mechanical properties of the RS ZK60 extruded alloy is primarily attributed to grain refinement.
文摘Floating ring bearings are widely used in high-speed turbomachinery such as turbochargers and turbogenerators.Research-ers have recently explored various surface texturing strategies on the inner surface of floating rings to enhance bearing performance.In this study,the herring patterns are textured on the inner surface of the floating ring.This pattern is inspired by the secondary flight feathers of the Indian pigeon,which aid the bird in reducing viscous drag during flight.The result-ing Herringbone Textured Floating Ring Bearing(HTFRB)is investigated for its potential application in locomotive turbo-chargers.The HTFRB is numerically modeled using the Reynolds equation to evaluate the bearing's pressure distribution and static characteristics,including load-carrying capacity,power loss,and side leakage.Dynamic characteristics are determined by solving the zeroth-and first-order perturbed Reynolds equation.A Sobol sensitivity analysis is conducted to quantify the influence of groove parameters-helix angle,groove depth,groove width ratio,and number of grooves-on bearing performance metrics.An artificial intelligence-based optimization framework,integrating artificial neural networks and adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference systems,is developed to maximize load carrying capacity while minimiz-ing power loss,side leakage,and friction coefficient.The optimized texture parameters obtained from this framework are employed to validate the ANN model and evaluate the static and dynamic characteristics of the HTFRB.The dynamic coefficients of the HTFRB are further employed to evaluate the stability and robustness of the turbocharger rotor-HTFRB system.This study underscores the potential of combining bio-inspired texture design with numerical modeling and AI-based optimization to develop high-performance HTFRB.

文摘Phosphorus(P)leaching in alkaline soils,exacerbated by excessive fertilizer application,represents a significant pathway for P loss.While soil pore structure and texture critically regulate P transport,mechanisms governing P loss in texturally diverse alkaline soils remain unclear.This study investigated P leaching dynamics and transport parameters across four alkaline soil textures(silty clay,clay loam,loam,sandy loam)using a one-dimensional convective-diffusion equation(CDE)based on column experiments.Results indicated that phosphorus leaching kinetics were predominantly governed by diffusion transport,evidenced by low Peclet numbers(P_(e))(ranged from 0.02 to 0.31)across varying textures and initial P concentrations(C_(0)).Comparative analysis of transport parameters revealed significant textural effects on dispersion coefficient(D),retardation factor(R),pore water velocity(V),P_(e),and diffusion coefficient(λ)(F>523.42,p<0.001).Among these,only D,P_(e) andλexhibited substantial differences in response to variations in C_(0)(F>89.47,p<0.001).Saturated hydraulic conductivity(K_(s))(R^(2)=62.9%,p<0.01)and total pore area(A)(R^(2)=12.4%,p<0.01)emerged as primary regulators of P leaching.Enhanced clay content increased total pore area while reducing average pore diameter,concurrently decreasing pore water velocity and saturated infiltration rates.These textural modifications amplified diffusive P transport within soil matrices.The findings provide mechanistic insights into texturedependent P mobility in alkaline environments,informing targeted strategies for agricultural phosphorus management.

文摘To investigate the evolution of grain orientation and slip modes in magnesium alloys with multiple texture components,an AZ31 gradient-structured magnesium alloy sheet was fabricated using hard plate rolling(HPR).The changes in texture and slip modes under different reductions were examined.The results demonstrate that the AZ31 magnesium alloy sheets display a self-epitaxial gradient structure,with the best mechanical properties observed at rolling temperature of 673 K and reduction of 50%.Significant changes in texture type and strength are observed along the normal direction(ND)of the sheet.The coarse-grain region exhibits a bimodal texture aligned with the rolling direction.These texture variations enhance the stress distribution at the fine grain-coarse grain interface,influencing the grain orientation and the activation of different slip modes,thus improving the mechanical properties of gradient-structured magnesium alloy sheets.This approach offers a new strategy for the fabrication of high-performance magnesium alloy sheets.

文摘Aqueous zinc-ion batteries(AZIBs)are currently confronted with the challenge of achieving long-term cyclic stability under high current densities.This issue is primarily attributed to the excessive growth of dendrites and the occurrence of significant side reactions.Herein,sucralose(SCL),as an electrolyte additive,has been used to promote the exposure of the Zn(002)texture.The introduction of SCL can adjust the Zn~(2+)nucleation and diffusion along different crystal facets,promoting the exposure of the Zn(002)texture.By substituting water molecules in the[Zn(H_(2)O)_(6)]~(2+),SCL reconfigures the hydrogen bond network in the electrolyte,reconstructing the solvation structure and suppressing the hydrogen evolution reaction.Consequently,the Zn//Zn symmetric battery exhibits long-term cycling stability of over 4900 h at 1 mA cm^(-2)-1 mAh cm^(-2).Even at a harsh condition of 30 mA cm^(-2)-30 mAh cm^(-2)(DOD=73.3%),it can stably cycle for 171 h.The CE of the Zn//Cu half battery reaches 99.61% at 0.2 mA cm^(-2)with 0.2 mAh cm^(-2).Employing the optimized electrolyte,after 500 cycles,a high specific capacity of 420 mAh g^(-1)can be retained for the NH_4V_4O_(10)//Zn full battery at 500 mA g^(-1),corresponding to a capacity retention of 90.7%.

文摘Efficient tool condition monitoring techniques help to realize intelligent management of tool life and reduce tool usage costs.In this paper,the influence of different wear degrees of ball-end milling cutters on the texture shape of machining tool marks is investigated,and a method is proposed for predicting the wear state(including the position and degree of tool wear)of ball-end milling cutters based on entropy measurement of tool mark texture images.Firstly,data samples are prepared through wear experiments,and the change law of the tool mark texture shape with the tool wear state is analyzed.Then,a two-dimensional sample entropy algorithm is developed to quantify the texture morphology.Finally,the processing parameters and tool attitude are integrated into the prediction process to predict the wear value and wear position of the ball end milling cutter.After testing,the correlation between the predicted value and the standard value of the proposed tool condition monitoring method reaches 95.32%,and the accuracy reaches 82.73%,indicating that the proposed method meets the requirement of tool condition monitoring.

文摘Rolled Mg-Al-Sn series alloys generally possess limited formability due to the formation of strong basal texture.Texture weakening is an effective way to enhance formability,but usually accompanied with decreasing strength.In this work,synergistic enhancement of strength and formability is achieved in a Mg-3Al-1Sn-0.5Ca-0.1Sm(ATXS3110)alloy by 0.2 wt.%Mn addition combined with high temperature rolling,exhibiting a high index Erichsen(I.E.)value of~8.1 mm and near-isotropic mechanical properties.On one hand,after Mn addition,the grain refinement from~7.6μm to~4.1μm results in suppression of extension twinning,thereby preventing the development of strong basal texture upon stretch forming.On the other hand,trace Mn addition narrows the grain size distribution and promotes the formation of uniform fine grains,which induces homogeneous deformation during stretch forming.Moreover,grain refinement and high-density nano-sized precipitates caused by trace Mn addition increase the strength.This work may provide insights into designing low-cost Mg-Al-Sn series alloys with superior comprehensive mechanical properties for further structural applications.

文摘An internal state variable(ISV)model was established according to the experimental results of hot plane strain compression(PSC)to predict the microstructure evolution during hot spinning of ZK61 alloy.The effects of the internal variables were considered in this ISV model,and the parameters were optimized by genetic algorithm.After validation,the ISV model was used to simulate the evolution of grain size(GS)and dynamic recrystallization(DRX)fraction during hot spinning via Abaqus and its subroutine Vumat.By comparing the simulated results with the experimental results,the application of the ISV model was proven to be reliable.Meanwhile,the strength of the thin-walled spun ZK61 tube increased from 303 to 334 MPa due to grain refinement by DRX and texture strengthening.Besides,some ultrafine grains(0.5μm)that played an important role in mechanical properties were formed due to the proliferation,movement,and entanglement of dislocations during the spinning process.

文摘Rare-earth(RE) magnesium alloys have attracted lots of attention due to their excellent mechanical properties.In this work,the microstructure and mechanical properties of as-extruded 8.5Gd-4.5Y-0.8Zn-0.4Zr magnesium alloy under different solution treatment were examined with the optical microscope(OM),scanning electron microscope(SEM),high resolution transmission electron microscope(HRTEM),electron back-scattered diffraction(EBSD) and Instron testing machine.The results show that the ES12alloy(solution treatment for 12 h at 520℃) has the highest ultimate tensile strength(UTS) of 390 MPa with a fracture elongation of 24.5% at the co st of a minor drop in yielding strength(YS) compared to the asextruded alloy.During solution treatment,the block-shaped long period stacking ordered(LPSO) in asextruded alloy evolves into plate-shaped LPSO,which disperses at grain boundaries(GBs),and lamellar LPSO,which distributes in grains.The coexistence of plate-shaped and lamellar LPSO,which impedes the dislocations movement,and the activated dislocations are regarded as the primary reasons for mechanical properties improvement.Furthermore,the(11-21) <1-100> texture in as-extruded alloy transforms into the(11-20) <0001> texture in ES12 alloy.The average grain size increases from 3.45 μm in as-extruded alloy to 18.70 μm in ES12 alloy.The Schmid factors of {0001} <11-20>,{10-10} <11-20>,{10-11} <11-20>,and {11-22} <11-23> increase,which indicate that slip systems are more easily activated in plastic deformation.The dynamic recrystallization(DRX) grains fraction increase to 92.8% for ES12 alloy due to the particle-stimulated nucleation(PSN) mechanism triggered by block-shaped and plate-shaped LPSO.The freshly DRXed grains further weaken the texture,and reduce the dislocation density.All of these factors increase elongation of RE magnesium alloy.

文摘Hot deformation with high strain rate has been paid more attention due to its high efficiency and low cost,however,the strain rate dependent dynamic recrystallization(DRX)and texture evolution in hot deformation process,which affect the formability of metals,are lack of study.In this work,the DRX behavior and texture evolution of Mg-8Gd-1Er-0.5Zr alloy hot compressed with strain rates of 0.1 s^(−1),1 s^(−1),10 s^(−1) and 50 s^(−1) are studied,and the corresponding dominant mechanisms for DRX and texture weakening are discussed.Results indicated the DRX fraction was 20%and the whole texture intensity was 16.89 MRD when the strain rate was 0.1 s^(−1),but they were 76%and 6.55 MRD,respectively,when the strain rate increased to 50 s^(−1).The increment of DRX fraction is suggested to result from the reduced DRX critical strain and the increased dislocation density as well as velocity,while the weakened whole texture is attributed to the increased DRX grains.At the low strain rate of 0.1 s^(−1),discontinuous DRX(DDRX)was the dominant,but the whole texture was controlled by the deformed grains with the preferred orientation of{0001}⊥CD,because the number of DDRX grains was limited.At the high strain rate of 50 s^(−1),continuous DRX(CDRX)and twin-induced DRX(TDRX)were promoted,and more DRX grains resulted in orientation randomization.The whole texture was mainly weakened by CDRX and TDRX grains,in which CDRX plays a major role.The results of present work are significant for understanding the hot workability of Mg-RE alloys with a high strain rate.
文摘The textures and microstructures of hot-and cold-rolled sheets of an AA 5454 aluminium alloy were studied,with special attention paid to comparing the texture development for the symmetric and asymmetric cold rolling.Scanning electron microscopy with electron-backscatter diffraction was used to monitor the development of the microstructure in the differently deformed and additionally annealed samples.Details of the formations and transformations of individual texture components occurring during the rolling processes were observed and discussed.The average grain sizes,textures and mechanical properties were correlated and explained for the symmetric and asymmetric cold-rolled samples.The asymmetric rolling is beneficial in terms of deep drawability because it reduces the planar anisotropy of the annealed material due to the decrease of the Cube,Goss,rotated-Cube and η-fibre texture components and at the same time strengthens X1-and X2-fibre texture components which are shear texture components and improve deep drawability.During the asymmetric cold rolling,the temperature increases due to friction,triggering recrystallisation processes and leading to larger grains.It is also confirmed that asymmetric cold rolling uses less rolling force and consequently less energy to produce a final material with better formability,particularly earing.

文摘The MIG welding of in-situ generated nano-Al_(2)O_(3)powder metallurgy 7A52(PM 7A52)aluminum alloy was investigated.The microstructure was characterized using EBSD and TEM,while macrotexture and internal residual stresses were analyzed with a self-developed SWXRD technique.The results revealed that PM 7A52 aluminum alloy effectively reduced the grain size,dislocation density,and texture strength in the post-weld microstructure.Furthermore,the residual stress in the weld zone(WZ)of PM 7A52 aluminum alloy was reduced by 38 MPa compared to that of the conventional melt-cast 7A52(CM 7A52)aluminum alloy.Notably,the tensile strength and elongation of welded joints in PM 7A52 aluminum alloy were increased by approximately 15%and 26%,respectively.The improvement in joint tensile strength was primarily attributed to grain boundary strengthening and dispersion strengthening caused byγ-Al_(2)O_(3)particles entering the WZ.
