X-ray diffraction (XRD) revealed that the microstructure of the layer was in crystal form. SEM and AFM analyses proved that the film appeared to be rather rough with numerous randomly sized pores of approximately 15-40 in nm diameter. Structural stability of the film was examined by the combined analyses of DSC, XRD, and SEM, which indicated that this film maintained its structural stability below 500 K or so, and a network structure was observed on the film after being heated at 700 K for 30 min. Electrochemical hydrogen-storage properties of the films were investigated by simulated battery tests. It was found that single-layered LaNi4.25A10.75 film exhibited electrochemical hydrogen-storage properties similar to typical AB5 alloys in bulk, and the maximum discharge capacity of the film was about 220 mAh/g. After 20 charge/discharge cycles, small needle-shaped aluminium oxide was formed on some fractions of the film surface.展开更多

However, the reliability of on-line wear debris image processing is challenged in both monitoring ship engines and the Caterpillar bench test, which weren't reported in previous studies. Two problems were encountered in monitoring engines and processing images. First, small wear debris becomes hard to be identified from the image background after monitoring for a period of time. Second, the identification accuracy for wear debris is greatly reduced by background noise because of oil getting dark after nmning a period of time. Therefore, the methods adopted in image processing are examined. Two main reasons for the problems in wear debris identification are generalized as follows. Generally, the binary threshold was determined by global image pixels, and was easily affected by the non-objective zone in the image. The boundary of the objective zone in the binary image was misrecognized because of oil color becoming lighter during monitoring. Accordingly, improvements were made as follows. The objective zone in a global binary image was identified by scanning a column of pixels, and then a secondary binary process confined in the objective zone was carried out to identify small wear debris. Linear filtering with a specific template was used to depress noise in a binary image, and then a low-pass filtering was performed to eliminate the residual noise. Furthermore, the morphology parameters of single wear debris were extracted by separating each wear debris by a gray stack, and two indexes, WRWR (relative wear rate) and WRWS (relative wear severity), were proposed for wear description. New indexes were provided for on-line monitoring of engines.展开更多

The polyelectrolyte microspheres(CMC/CS microspheres) were fabricated by using anioniccationic electrostatic attraction between CMC and CS by high voltage electrostatic spray technology. The aggregating process of GQDs was based on the anionic-cationic electrostatic attraction as well. After combing with the polyelectrolyte microspheres, the fluorescence of GQDs disappeared. CHS, which widely consists in the cell surface of human beings and animals, carries a large number of negative charges on the surface. The addition of CHS enabled CHS and GQDs to compete with each other to composite with the CMC/CS microshpheres. As a result of the higher surface charge density of CHS, CMC/CS-CHS formed accompanied by the release of GQDs, and the fluorescence of the system recovered. The CHS content was detected by analyzing the system's fluorescence recovery, which suggested that the obtained fluorescence biosensor can accurately detect the concentration of CHS. The test results showed that the linear range of the fluorescence recovery for this biosensor with respect to CHS was 0~12.00 mg/mL, and the detection limit was 10-8 M. Besides, to test the stability of the biosensor, the CMC/CS-GQDs micropsheres persisted for one month, with a low fluorescence quenching of 9.48%. These results suggested that CMC/CS-GQDs can be utilized as efficient fluorescence biosensor for the detection of CHS. Moreover, the detection method was simple and efficient, and could be widely popularized.展开更多
