The effects of two geometrical parameters on the first band gap of this periodic beam are investigated by the generalized differential quadrature rule (GDQR) method. The GDQR method is also used to calculate the forced vibration response of the beam and voltage of each piezoelectric layer when the beam is subject to a sinusoidal base excitation. Results obtained from the analytical method are compared with those obtained from the finite element simulation with ANSYS, and good agreement is found. The voltage output of this periodic beam over its first band gap is calculated and compared with the voltage output of the uniform piezoelectric beam. It is concluded that this periodic beam has three advantages over the uniform piezoelectric beam, i.e., generating more voltage outputs over a wide frequency range, absorbing vibration, and being less weight.展开更多

Especially in recent years, with the rapid development of composite additive manufacturing technology, the design optimization of variable stiffness of fiber-reinforced composite laminates has attracted widespread attention from scholars and industry. In these aerospace composite structures, numerous cutout panels and shells serve as access points for maintaining electrical, fuel, and hydraulic systems. The traditional fiber-reinforced composite laminate subtractive drilling manufacturing inevitably faces the problems of interlayer delamination, fiber fracture, and burr of the laminate. Continuous fiber additive manufacturing technology offers the potential for integrated design optimization and manufacturing with high structural performance. Considering the integration of design and manufacturability in continuous fiber additive manufacturing, the paper proposes linear and nonlinear filtering strategies based on the Normal Distribution Fiber Optimization (NDFO) material interpolation scheme to overcome the challenge of discrete fiber optimization results, which are difficult to apply directly to continuous fiber additive manufacturing. With minimizing structural compliance as the objective function, the proposed approach provides a strategy to achieve continuity of discrete fiber paths in the variable stiffness design optimization of composite laminates with regular and irregular holes. In the variable stiffness design optimization model, the number of candidate fiber laying angles in the NDFO material interpolation scheme is considered as design variable. The sensitivity information of structural compliance with respect to the number of candidate fiber laying angles is obtained using the analytical sensitivity analysis method. Based on the proposed variable stiffness design optimization method for complex perforated composite laminates, the numerical examples consider the variable stiffness design optimization of typical non-perforated and perforated composite laminates with circular, square, and irregular holes, and systematically discuss the number of candidate discrete fiber laying angles, discrete fiber continuous filtering strategies, and filter radius on structural compliance, continuity, and manufacturability. The optimized discrete fiber angles of variable stiffness laminates are converted into continuous fiber laying paths using a streamlined process for continuous fiber additive manufacturing. Meanwhile, the optimized non-perforated and perforated MBB beams after discrete fiber continuous treatment, are manufactured using continuous fiber co-extrusion additive manufacturing technology to verify the effectiveness of the variable stiffness fiber optimization framework proposed in this paper.展开更多

文摘A bimorph piezoelectric beam with periodically variable cross-sections is used for the vibration energy harvesting. The effects of two geometrical parameters on the first band gap of this periodic beam are investigated by the generalized differential quadrature rule (GDQR) method. The GDQR method is also used to calculate the forced vibration response of the beam and voltage of each piezoelectric layer when the beam is subject to a sinusoidal base excitation. Results obtained from the analytical method are compared with those obtained from the finite element simulation with ANSYS, and good agreement is found. The voltage output of this periodic beam over its first band gap is calculated and compared with the voltage output of the uniform piezoelectric beam. It is concluded that this periodic beam has three advantages over the uniform piezoelectric beam, i.e., generating more voltage outputs over a wide frequency range, absorbing vibration, and being less weight.

文摘This paper presents a continuum manipulator inspired by the anatomical characteristics of the elephant trunk.Specifically,the manipulator mimics the conoid profile of the elephant trunk,which helps to enhance its strength.The design features two concentric parts:inner pneumatically actuated bellows and an outer tendon-driven helical spring.The tendons control the omnidirectional bending of the manipulator,while the fusion of the pneumatic bellows with the tendon-driven spring results in an antagonistic actuation mechanism that provides the manipulator with variable stiffness and extensibility.This paper presents a new design for extensible manipulator and analyzes its stiffness and motion characteristics.Experimental results are consistent with theoretical analysis,thereby demonstrating the validity of the theoretical approach and the versatile practical mechanical properties of the continuum manipulator.The impressive extensibility and variable stiffness of the manipulator were further demonstrated by performing a pin-hole assembly task.
文摘Predictive control(PC)is an advanced control algorithm,which is widely used in industrial process control.Among them,model-based predictive control(MPC)is an important branch of predictive control.Its basic principle is to use the system model to predict future behavior and determine the current control action by optimizing the objective function.Based on the algorithm combined with three different sections using deep learning technology to identify vehicles and output the optimal speed limit,to achieve the effect of traffic flow optimization.
文摘Application of variable speed limits(VSL)is gradually increasingly implemented especially on highways.As a result of conducted studies and implementations,it is observed that the variable speed limits have reduced the number of car accidents as well as proved positive results in terms of delays and environmental factors.Purpose of this study is to develop an algorithm for VSL application that is considered to be applied on Istanbul D100 highway and to assess the effects of application.Algorithm that is developed for VSL is a different VSL algorithm and compared with the constant speed system.According to obtained results,when the proposed system is compared to current system,it is observed that the number of delays and average stops are reduced%30 and%40 respectively and also emissions reduced at the rate of%12.

文摘In clinical research,subgroup analysis can help identify patient groups that respond better or worse to specific treatments,improve therapeutic effect and safety,and is of great significance in precision medicine.This article considers subgroup analysis methods for longitudinal data containing multiple covariates and biomarkers.We divide subgroups based on whether a linear combination of these biomarkers exceeds a predetermined threshold,and assess the heterogeneity of treatment effects across subgroups using the interaction between subgroups and exposure variables.Quantile regression is used to better characterize the global distribution of the response variable and sparsity penalties are imposed to achieve variable selection of covariates and biomarkers.The effectiveness of our proposed methodology for both variable selection and parameter estimation is verified through random simulations.Finally,we demonstrate the application of this method by analyzing data from the PA.3 trial,further illustrating the practicality of the method proposed in this paper.

文摘This work develops a protein imprinted nanosphere with varied recognition specificity for bovine serum albumin(BSA)and lysozyme(Lyz)under different UV light through a gradient dual crosslinked imprinting strategy(i.e.,covalent crosslinking and dynamic reversible crosslinking).The imprinting cavities are initially constructed using irreversible covalent crosslinking to specifically recognize BSA,and then the coumarin residues in the imprinting cavities are crosslinked under 365 nm UV light to further imprint Lyz,because Lyz has smaller size than BSA.Since the photo-crosslinking of coumarin is a reversible reaction,the imprinting cavities of Lyz can be de-crosslinked under 254 nm UV light and restore the imprinting cavities of BSA.Moreover,the N-isopropyl acrylamide(NIPAM)and pyrrolidine residues copolymerized in the polymeric surface of the nanospheres are temperature-and p H-responsive respectively.Therefore,the protein rebinding and release behaviors of the nanospheres are controlled by external temperature and p H.As a result,the materials can selectively separate BSA from real bovine whole blood and Lyz from egg white under different UV light.This study may provide a new strategy for construction of protein imprinted materials with tunable specificity for different proteins.

文摘In the PSP(Pressure-Sensitive Paint),image deblurring is essential due to factors such as prolonged camera exposure times and highmodel velocities,which can lead to significant image blurring.Conventional deblurring methods applied to PSP images often suffer from limited accuracy and require extensive computational resources.To address these issues,this study proposes a deep learning-based approach tailored for PSP image deblurring.Considering that PSP applications primarily involve the accurate pressure measurements of complex geometries,the images captured under such conditions exhibit distinctive non-uniform motion blur,presenting challenges for standard deep learning models utilizing convolutional or attention-based techniques.In this paper,we introduce a novel deblurring architecture featuring multiple DAAM(Deformable Ack Attention Module).These modules provide enhanced flexibility for end-to-end deblurring,leveraging irregular convolution operations for efficient feature extraction while employing attention mechanisms interpreted as multiple 1×1 convolutions,subsequently reassembled to enhance performance.Furthermore,we incorporate a RSC(Residual Shortcut Convolution)module for initial feature processing,aimed at reducing redundant computations and improving the learning capacity for representative shallow features.To preserve critical spatial information during upsampling and downsampling,we replace conventional convolutions with wt(Haar wavelet downsampling)and dysample(Upsampling by Dynamic Sampling).This modification significantly enhances high-precision image reconstruction.By integrating these advanced modules within an encoder-decoder framework,we present the DFDNet(Deformable Fusion Deblurring Network)for image blur removal,providing robust technical support for subsequent PSP data analysis.Experimental evaluations on the FY dataset demonstrate the superior performance of our model,achieving competitive results on the GOPRO and HIDE datasets.

文摘Casting experiments and macro-micro numerical simulations were conducted to examine the microstructure characteristics of K439B nickel-based superalloy casting with varying cross-sections during the gravity investment casting process.Firstly,microstructure analysis was conducted on the casting using scanning electron microscopy(SEM)and electron backscatter diffraction(EBSD).Subsequently,calculation of the phase diagram and differential scanning calorimetry(DSC)tests were conducted to determine the macro-micro simulation parameters of the K439B alloy,and the cellular automaton finite element(CAFE)method was employed to develop macro-micro modeling of K439B nickel-based superalloy casting with varying cross-sections.The experimental results revealed that the ratio of the average grain area increased from the edge to the center of the sections as the ratio of the cross-sectional area increased.The simulation results indicated that the average grain area increased from 0.885 to 0.956 mm^(2)as the ratio of the cross-sections increased from 6꞉1 to 12꞉1.The experiment and simulation results showed that the grain size became more heterogeneous and the grain shape became more irregular with an increase in the ratio of the cross-sectional area of the casting.CAFE modeling was an effective method to simulate the microstructure evolution of the K439B alloy and ensure the accuracy of the simulation.
文摘This study explores the bioconvective behavior of a Reiner-Rivlin nanofluid,accounting for spatially varying thermal properties.The flow is considered over a porous,stretching surface with mass suction effects incorporated into the transport analysis.The Reiner-Rivlin nanofluid model includes variable thermal conductivity,mass diffusivity,and motile microorganism density to accurately reflect realistic biological conditions.Radiative heat transfer and internal heat generation are considered in the thermal energy equation,while the Cattaneo-Christov theory is employed to model non-Fourier heat and mass fluxes.The governing equations are non-dimensionalized to reduce complexity,and a numerical solution is obtained using a shooting method.Parametric studies are conducted to examine the influence of key dimensionless parameters on velocity,temperature,concentration,and motile microorganism profiles.The results are presented through a series of graphs,offering insight into the dynamic interplay between physical mechanisms affecting heat and mass transfer in non-Newtonian bioconvective nanofluid systems.
