Influence of processing on changing original structure of fibrous material during mechanical processing that causes deformation at loading is determined by peculiarities of its structure. Reversible and irreversible changes of structural elements in fibrous material causes changing of volume and sorption properties and will essentially influence on its chemical finishing processes. Influence of twisting degree and number of silk cords on structure and physical mechanical properties. Changing of supermolecular structure of thread in the process of its forming by X-ray graphic, sorption and focused beam electronic microscopic methods was researched.展开更多

Unlike the flapping motion of bird wings, insects generally make a twisting motion at the root of their wings while flapping, which makes it possible for them to hover in midair. This work includes the development of a Voice Coil Motor （VCM） because a flapping-wing air vehicle should be assembled with a compact actuator to decrease size and weight. A linkage mechanism is proposed to transform the linear motion of the VCM into the flapping and twisting motions of wings. The assembled flapping-wing air vehicle, whose weight is 2.86 g, produces an average positive vertical force proportional to the twist angle. The force saturates because the twist angle is mechanically limited. This work demonstrates the possibility of developing a flapping-wing air vehicle that can hover in midair using a mechanism that actively twists the roots of wings during flapping.展开更多

The twist-morphing that alters the angle of attack （AOA） along the span-wise direction is observed widely during bat flapping flight. An assumption is made that the linearly distributed AOA is along the span-wise direction. The plate with the aspect ratio of 3 is used to model a bat wing. A three-dimensional （3D） unsteady panel method is used to predict the aerodynamic forces generated by the flapping plate with leading edge separation. It is found that, relative to the rigid wing flapping, twisting motion can increase the averaged lift by as much as 25% and produce thrust instead of drag. Furthermore, the aerodynamic forces （lift/drag） generated by a twisting plate-wing are similar to those of a pitching rigid-wing, meaning that the twisting in bat flight has the same function as the supination/pronation motion in insect flight.展开更多

The NMR data were recorded on a Bruker 400 MHz NMR equipped with our custom-made optical probe and with our custom-made 450 watts (W) monochromatic light sources. The molecular photochemistry including twisted intramolecular charge-transfer-excited-state (TICT) of the EMABPB in several solvents has been investigated. These results indicate that the aminoborane demonstrates multiple configurations in CD3Cl and CD2Cl2 resulting in the shifts of the signals of the alkyl groups on the nitrogen and boron. This indicates that there are some time-dependent changes at constant temperature over the irradiation interval. At ﹣60°C and the presence of light (λ = 265 nm), we observed a large change in the populations of the two sites, and this by itself indicates a modification in the rotation around the boron nitrogen bond in the excited state. By considering the existence of the TICT state, many important energy technologies may be developed with higher efficiency by controlling the back-electron transfer processes.展开更多

The chiral dopant was characterized by FT-IR, ^1H NMR, elemental analysis, SEM, UV absorption spectrum. After dissolving in a nematic liquid crystal mixture, the chiral dopant exhibited a temperature-dependent solubility in the chiral nematic liquid crystal mixture. Meanwhile, a relatively high value of helical twisting power of the polymerizable chiral dopant was determined. The results show that the chiral dopant has great potential in achieving a polymer stabilized chiral nematic liquid crystal film with a broad-band selective reflection. C 2009 Huai Yang.

After doped into a nematic liquid crystal host, all the chiral dopants induced chiral nematic liquid crystals exhibiting a helix inversion with temperature variation. The results indicate that terminal alkyl chain length has a prominent influence on helical twisting property of the chiral dopants. With increasing the terminal alkyl chain length, the molecular twisting power increases, the helix inversion temperatures varies slightly while the phase transition temperature decreases. An odd-even effect may exist in the molecular twisting power of the chirai dopants.展开更多

It is schemed for on-orbit servicing to a tumbling non- cooperative target spacecraft subjected to external disturbances. A coupled dynamic model is established including both kinemati- cal and dynamic coupled effect of relative rotation on relative translation, which illustrates the relative movement between the docking port located in target spacecraft and another in service spacecraft. The modified super twisting （MST） control algorithm containing linear compensation items is schemed to manipulate the relative position and attitude synchronously. The correction provides more robustness and convergence velocity for dealing with linearly growing perturbations than the ST control algorithm. Moreover, the stability characteristic of closed-loop system is ana- lyzed by Lyapunov method. Numerical simulations are adopted to verify the analysis with the comparison between MST and ST control algorithms. Simulation results demonstrate that the pro- posed MST controller is characterized by high precision, strong robustness and fast convergence velocity to attenuate the linearly increasing perturbations.展开更多

An MFC is a piezoelectric fiber composite which has an interdigitated electrode, rectangular cross-section and unidirectional piezoceramic (PZT) fibers embedded in the polymer matrix. An MFC actuator has much higher actuation performance, flexibility and durability than a traditional piezoceramic (PZT) actuator. This study showed that an MFC could be used as an actuator to change the displacement and twist tip-angle of a pre-twisted beam. In the test, an MFC patch was pasted on the beam’s upper surface to twist the pre-twisted beam actively. Different twist tip-angle changes of the pre-twisted beam were measured under a series of actuation voltages, and a good agreement was observed when experimental results were compared with numerical results. In addition, the actuation performance of MFC was compared with those of PZT4 and PVDF and the influence of anisotropic property of the MFC on its actuation performance was also studied. The experimental and numerical results presented in this paper show the potential of MFC for use in the vibration control of helicopter rotors.展开更多
