In recent years, their assessment by leveraging the power of Machine Learning(ML) has gained increasing attentions. A comprehensive overview on the state-of-the-art progress of applying ML strategies to predict fatigue properties of AM materials, as well as their dependence on AM processing and post-processing parameters such as laser power, scanning speed, layer height, hatch distance, built direction, post-heat temperature,etc., were presented. A few attempts in employing Feedforward Neural Network(FNN), Convolutional Neural Network(CNN), Adaptive Network-Based Fuzzy Inference System(ANFIS), Support Vector Machine(SVM) and Random Forest(RF) to predict fatigue life and RF to predict fatigue crack growth rate are summarized. The ML models for predicting AM materials' fatigue properties are found intrinsically similar to the commonly used ones, but are modified to involve AM features. Finally, an outlook for challenges(i.e., small dataset, multifarious features,overfitting, low interpretability, and unable extension from AM material data to structure life) and potential solutions for the ML prediction of AM materials' fatigue properties is provided.展开更多

文摘The maneuvering time on the ground accounts for 10%–30%of their flight time,and it always exceeds 50%for short-haul aircraft when the ground traffic is congested.Aircraft also contribute significantly to emissions,fuel burn,and noise when taxiing on the ground at airports.There is an urgent need to reduce aircraft taxiing time on the ground.However,it is too expensive for airports and aircraft carriers to build and maintain more runways,and it is space-limited to tow the aircraft fast using tractors.Autonomous drive capability is currently the best solution for aircraft,which can save the maneuver time for aircraft.An idea is proposed that the wheels are driven by APU-powered(auxiliary power unit)motors,APU is working on its efficient point;consequently,the emissions,fuel burn,and noise will be reduced significantly.For Front-wheel drive aircraft,the front wheel must provide longitudinal force to tow the plane forward and lateral force to help the aircraft make a turn.Forward traction effects the aircraft’s maximum turning ability,which is difficult to be modeled to guide the controller design.Deep reinforcement learning provides a powerful tool to help us design controllers for black-box models;however,the models of related works are always simplified,fixed,or not easily modified,but that is what we care about most.Only with complex models can the trained controller be intelligent.High-fidelity models that can easily modified are necessary for aircraft ground maneuver controller design.This paper focuses on the maneuvering problem of front-wheel drive aircraft,a high-fidelity aircraft taxiing dynamic model is established,including the 6-DOF airframe,landing gears,and nonlinear tire force model.A deep reinforcement learning based controller was designed to improve the maneuver performance of front-wheel drive aircraft.It is proved that in some conditions,the DRL based controller outperformed conventional look-ahead controllers.

文摘Fatigue properties of materials by Additive Manufacturing(AM) depend on many factors such as AM processing parameter, microstructure, residual stress, surface roughness, porosities, post-treatments, etc. Their evaluation inevitably requires these factors combined as many as possible, thus resulting in low efficiency and high cost. In recent years, their assessment by leveraging the power of Machine Learning(ML) has gained increasing attentions. A comprehensive overview on the state-of-the-art progress of applying ML strategies to predict fatigue properties of AM materials, as well as their dependence on AM processing and post-processing parameters such as laser power, scanning speed, layer height, hatch distance, built direction, post-heat temperature,etc., were presented. A few attempts in employing Feedforward Neural Network(FNN), Convolutional Neural Network(CNN), Adaptive Network-Based Fuzzy Inference System(ANFIS), Support Vector Machine(SVM) and Random Forest(RF) to predict fatigue life and RF to predict fatigue crack growth rate are summarized. The ML models for predicting AM materials' fatigue properties are found intrinsically similar to the commonly used ones, but are modified to involve AM features. Finally, an outlook for challenges(i.e., small dataset, multifarious features,overfitting, low interpretability, and unable extension from AM material data to structure life) and potential solutions for the ML prediction of AM materials' fatigue properties is provided.

文摘To improve the power density and simplify the seal structure,the Wet-Type Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor(WTPMSM)technique has been applied to aerospace Electro-Hydrostatic Actuators(EHA).In a WTPMSM,the stator and the rotor are both immersed in the aviation hydraulic oil.Although the heat dissipation performance of the WTPMSM can be enhanced,the aviation hydraulic oil will cost an extra oil frictional loss in the narrow airgap of the WTPMSM.This paper proposes an accurate oil frictional loss model for the WTPMSM,in which the wide speed range(0–20 kr/min)and the narrowness of the airgap(0.5–1.5 mm)are its features.Firstly,the mechanism of the oil frictional loss in the airgap of the WTPMSM is revealed.Then an accurate oil frictional loss model is proposed considering the nonlinear influence caused by the Taylor vortex.Furthermore,the influence of motor dimensions on oil frictional loss is analyzed.Finally,the proposed oil frictional loss model is verified by experiments,which provides a guideline for engineers to follow in the WTPMSM design.

文摘Nb-doped TiAl alloys exhibit excellent mechanical properties at high temperatures,and the underlying mechanism and optimal doping amount remain elusive.Molecular dynamics simulation is helpful to clarify these problems,but most of the existing interatomic potentials are limited to the Ti-Al binary system and lack interatomic potentials for doped alloys.Here,an intera-tomic potential of Nb-Al-Ti ternary systems based on the modified embedded-atom method was developed.The ternary potential can accurately predict the structure and thermodynamic properties of the Nb-Al-Ti system.The potential shows that the optimal Nb content for high-temperature strength-ductility synergy of TiAl single crystals is 8%,consistent with the amount of miracle synthesis of TiAl single crystals.Tensile simulations further show that the developed potential can make an effective prediction at high temperatures,indicating the potential for the development and applications of high-temperature Nb-Al-Ti ternary systems.

文摘Motor-pump assembly is the core component of the Aerospace Electro-hydrostatic Actuator(EHA).Thus,the design of the motor pump can be very challenging under conditions of high speed and wide pressure range,especially in particular working mediums.Our ultimate goal is to pursue better flow characteristics under a wide range of working conditions.In this paper,we built a sub-model of the main friction interfaces and a model of single-shaft coaxial motor-pump assembly adopting the method of hierarchical modeling.The experimental investigation of the output characteristics was mainly carried out in a phosphate ester medium environment.Then,the flow characteristics were compared and analyzed with the simulation results.Results indicated that the flow characteristics of the motor-pump assembly could be accurately simulated by the model and quite severe in a low speed and high-pressure environment.

文摘Flexoelectricity is a two-way coupling effect between the strain gradient and electric field that exists in all dielectrics,regardless of point group symmetry.However,the high-order derivatives of displacements involved in the strain gradient pose challenges in solving electromechanical coupling problems incorporating the flexoelectric effect.In this study,we formulate a phase-field model for ferroelectric materials considering the flexoelectric effect.A four-node quadrilateral element with 20 degrees of freedom is constructed without introducing high-order shape functions.The microstructure evolution of domains is described by an independent order parameter,namely the spontaneous polarization governed by the time-dependent Ginzburg–Landau theory.The model is developed based on a thermodynamic framework,in which a set of microforces is introduced to construct the constitutive relation and evolution equation.For the flexoelectric part of electric enthalpy,the strain gradient is determined by interpolating the mechanical strain at the node via the values of Gaussian integration points in the isoparametric space.The model is shown to be capable of reproducing the classic analytical solution of dielectric materials incorporating the flexoelectric contribution.The model is verified by duplicating some typical phenomena in flexoelectricity in cylindrical tubes and truncated pyramids.A comparison is made between the polarization distribution in dielectrics and ferroelectrics.The model can reproduce the solution to the boundary value problem of the cylindrical flexoelectric tube,and demonstrate domain twisting at domain walls in ferroelectrics considering the flexoelectric effect.

文摘(γ’+β)two-phase Ni-Al is a promising high-temperature protective coating material used on Ni-base superalloys since it has good interfacial compatibility with superalloys due to the low Al content compared to single-phaseβ-NiA l.In this paper,we aim to improve the oxidation resistance,whereby Ni-34Al-0.1Dy,a(γ’+β)two-phase Ni-Al alloy,was treated by laser shock processing(LSP)and the oxidation behavior at 1150℃ was investigated.The results showed that after oxidation,Al_(2)O_(3)scale formed on the originalβphase of the untreated alloy with a small grain size(200-800 nm),while for the LSP-treated samples,the scale grown on the originalβphase was dominantly composed of larger Al_(2)O_(3)grains with a size of 2-3μm.The distinction was attributed to the promotion ofθ-Al_(2)O_(3)toα-Al_(2)O_(3)transformation induced by the LSP,because the dislocation density,as well as surface roughness,were increased during LSP treatment which can provide heterogeneous nucleation sites forα-Al_(2)O_(3).In addition,the larger-size Al_(2)O_(3)particles,derived from the direct conversion of needle-likeθ-Al_(2)O_(3)in the initial oxidation stage,could rapidly overspread the wholeβphase surface thus reducing the scale growth rate.

文摘The CoCrFeMnNi high-entropy alloys(HEAs)with a(face-centered cubic) FCC structure has garnered considerable attention for its exceptional ductility and strain hardening ability.However,its yield strength is insufficient for structural applications.In this study,strengthening mechanisms in these HEAs were investigated to gain insight into the mechanical properties according to alloy powder size.Moreover,we present a novel approach to achieve both high strength and high ductility through the creation of a bimodal structure consisting of both coarse and fine grains via gas atomization and spark plasma sintering processes.A bimodally structured HEA prepared with a mass ratio of 2:8 between coarse particles(75-106 μm) and fine particles(≤25 μm)yielded optimal results,with a strength of 491.95 MPa and elongation of 19.64%.This strength value represents an~41% increase compared with the sample that displayed a fine single microstructure(347.08 MPa for yield strength).The strength enhancement was attributed to the prevention of plastic deformation initiation from the fine particles during deformation.This innovative approach to the creation of HEAs with bimodal structures shows promise for various applications,such as structural components that require a combination of high strength and high ductility.

文摘Electromagnetic Spectrum(EMS)recognition is vital in spectrum control,interference location,electronic countermeasures,etc.However,samples of high-value targets are incredibly scarce,even single,and are easily overwhelmed by noise and numerous low-value targets,resulting in poor recognition accuracy using traditional methods.Furthermore,the great similarity between samples from the same manufacturer,model,and batch,makes Specific Emitter Identification(SEI)with the EMS especially challenging.Based on the powerful extension and extraction ability of the Fractional Fourier Transform(FrFT)for detailed features,this paper proposes a novel algorithm for the EMS recognition under a single-sample condition.The proposed method constructs a feature matrix FrFT-M from the results of the FrFT under specific orders for each sample.Then,the most relevant item,obtained by analyzing the correlations among FrFT-Ms between the unidentified sample and known samples,determines the optimal recognition.Three simple tests are conducted,including two simulations considering fifteen basic waveforms and six typical radar signals,and one experiment using STM32 microcontroller boards.The detection results of simulated and experimental data show that the accuracies of all three cases are higher than 86%,even for samples of the same model.Our method is promising and may have significant value in other fields.

文摘SnTe has received considerable attention as an environmentally friendly alternative to the representative thermoelectric material of PbTe.However,excessive hole carrier concentration in SnTe results in an extremely low Seebeck coefficient and high thermal conductivity,which makes it exhibit relatively inferior thermoelectric properties.In this work,the thermoelectric performance of p-type SnTe is enhanced through regulating its energy band structures and reducing its electronic thermal conductivity by combining Bi doping with CdSe alloying.First,the carrier concentration of SnTe is successfully suppressed via Bi doping,which significantly decreases the electronic thermal conductivity.Then,the convergence and flattening of the valence bands by alloying CdSe effectively improves the effective mass of SnTe while restraining its carrier mobility.Finally,a maximum figure of merit(ZT) of~ 0.87 at 823 K and an average ZT of~ 0.51 at 300-823 K have been achieved in Sn_(0.96)Bi_(0.04)Te-5%CdSe.Our results indicate that decreasing the electronic thermal conductivity is an effective means of improving the performance of thermoelectric materials with a high carrier concentration.

文摘Zero-field single-beam atomic magnetometers with transverse parametric modulation for ultra-weak magnetic field detection have attracted widespread attention recently.In this study,we present a comprehensive response model and propose a modification method of conventional first harmonic response by introducing the second harmonic correction.The proposed modification method gives improvement in dynamic range and reduction of linearity error.Additionally,our modification method shows suppression of response instability caused by optical intensity and frequency fluctuations.An atomic magnetometer with single-beam configuration is built to compare the performance between our proposed method and the conventional method.The results indicate that our method’s magnetic field response signal achieves a 5-fold expansion of dynamic range from 2 nT to 10 nT,with the linearity error decreased from 5%to 1%.Under the fluctuations of 5%for optical intensity and±15 GHz detuning of frequency,the proposed modification method maintains intensityrelated instability less than 1%and frequency-related instability less than 8%while the conventional method suffers 15%and 38%,respectively.Our method is promising for future high-sensitive and long-term stable optically pumped atomic sensors.

文摘Thermoelectric materials have drawn extensive interest due to the direct conversion between electricity and heat,however,it is usually a time-consuming process for applying traditional“sequential”meth-ods to grow materials and investigate their properties,especially for thermoelectric films that typically require fine microstructure control.High-throughput experimental approaches can effectively accelerate materials development,but the methods for high-throughput screening of the microstructures require further study.In this work,a combinatorial high-throughput optimization solution of material properties is proposed for the parallel screening and optimizing of composition and microstructure,which involves two distinctive types of high-throughput fabrication approaches for thin films,along with a new portable multiple discrete masks based high-throughput preparation platform.Thus,Bi_(2)Te_(3-x)Se_(x)thin film library with 196 throughputs for locating the optimized composition is obtained in one growth cycle.In addition,another thin film library composed of 31 materials with traceable process parameters is built to further investigate the relationship between microstructure,process,and thermoelectric performance.Through high-throughput screening,the Bi_(2)Te_(2.9)Se_(0.1)film with(00l)orientation is prepared with a peak zT value of 1.303 at 353 K along with a high average zT value of 1.047 in the interval from 313 to 523 K.This method can be also extended to the discovery of other functional thin films with a rapid combinatorial screening of the composition and structure to accelerate material optimization.

文摘This paper investigates the atomic spin polarization controllability of spin-exchange relaxation-free co-magnetometers(SERFCMs).This is the first work in the field of controllability analysis for the atomic spin ensembles systems,whose dynamic behaviors of spin polarization are described by the Bloch equations.Based on the Bloch equations,a state-space model of the atomic spin polarization for SERFCM is first established,which belongs to a particular class of nonlinear systems.For this class of nonlinear systems,a novel determination method for the global state controllability is proposed and proved.Then,this method is implemented in the process of controllability analysis on the atomic spin polarization of an actual SERFCM.Moreover,a theoretically feasible and reasonable solution of the control input is proposed under some physical constraints,with whose limitation of realistic conditions,the controller design can be accomplished more practically and more exactly.Finally,the simulation results demonstrate the feasibility and validation of the proposed controllability determination method.

文摘As one of the core modules for air traffic flow management,Air Traffic Flow Prediction(ATFP)in the Multi-Airport System(MAS)is a prerequisite for demand and capacity balance in the complex meteorological environment.Due to the challenge of implicit interaction mechanism among traffic flow,airspace capacity and weather impact,the Weather-aware ATFP(Wa-ATFP)is still a nontrivial issue.In this paper,a novel Multi-faceted Spatio-Temporal Graph Convolutional Network(MSTGCN)is proposed to address the Wa-ATFP within the complex operations of MAS.Firstly,a spatio-temporal graph is constructed with three different nodes,including airport,route,and fix to describe the topology structure of MAS.Secondly,a weather-aware multi-faceted fusion module is proposed to integrate the feature of air traffic flow and the auxiliary features of capacity and weather,which can effectively address the complex impact of severe weather,e.g.,thunderstorms.Thirdly,to capture the latent connections of nodes,an adaptive graph connection constructor is designed.The experimental results with the real-world operational dataset in Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area,China,validate that the proposed approach outperforms the state-of-the-art machine-learning and deep-learning based baseline approaches in performance.

文摘With the growing need on distributed power supply for portable electronics,energy harvesting from environment becomes a promising solution.Organic thermoelectric(TE)materials have advantages in intrinsic flexibility and low thermal conductivity,thus hold great prospect in applications as a flexible power generator from dissipated heat.Nevertheless,the weak electrical transport behaviors of organic TE materials have severely impeded their development.Moreover,compared with p-type organic TE materials,stable and high-performance n-type counterparts are more difficult to obtain.Here,we developed a n-type polyaniline-based hybrid with core-shell heterostructured Bi;S;@Bi nanorods as fillers,showing a Seebeck coefficient-159.4μV/K at room temperature.Further,a couple of n/p legs from the PANI-based hybrids were integrated into an elastomer substrate forming a stretchable thermoelectric generator(TEG),whose function to output stable voltages responding to temperature differences has been demonstrated.The in situ output performance of the TEG under stretching could withstand up to 75%elongation,and stability test showed little degradation over a one-month period in the air.This study provides a promising strategy to develop stable and high thermopower organic TEGs harvesting heat from environment as long-term power supply.
