稀土和磷对过共晶Al-Si合金的复合变质作用

The effect of rare earth (RE) elements on the morphologies and sizes of Si phases in the hypereutectic Al-Si alloys modified with P was investigated.The results show that the addition of La element to the hypereutectic Al-Si alloys can enhance the effect of P element on the modification of the primary Si phases.In the multiplex modification of RE-P,the primary Si phase is refiner and the shape of the eutectic Si is changed from long needle-like to short rod-like.Moreover,the agglomeration rate of the primary Si phase is slowed greatly.Even the melt is held for 6 h,the average size of the primary Si phase is still satisfied.The results analyzed by scanning electron microscope (SEM) indicate that La is richer at A1-Si interface than that inα-Al or primary Si phase.The higher the La content in the Al-Si interface,the smaller the primary Si phase.     

混合溶剂中烷偶联剂KH570对纳米ZnO的接枝改性

The reaction of ZnO nanoparticles grafted with KH570 silane coupling agent was carried out in water-alcohol mixed solvent. Several characterization methods were applied to analyzing the results of surface modification such as Soxhlet extraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), thermogravimetry (TG), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and zeta potential (ζ). The results of FT-IR and TG-DSC show that the desired reaction chains have been covalently bonded on the surface of ZnO nanoparticles. Zetasizer results reveal that themaximal absolute value of ζ of the modified ZnO particles in acetone medium was 67.0 mV, which was much higher than that of the unmodified ZnO particles. So the surface of nanosized ZnO changed from hydrophilicity to hydrophobicity and the dispersity of ZnO nanoparticles were improved simultaneously. Finally, the mechanism of graft modification was discussed.

Control system for dynamic testing platform of asymmetrical pitch mechanism

A novel asymmetrical pitch system for rotary wing is presented. The pitch control characteristics are studied and analyzed. Because elastic linkage is a key part in whole asymmetrical pitch system, in order to obtain the variation of the elastic linkage deformation, an experimental platform mainly based on the device of micro aerial vehicles (MAVs) and a new control system mounted on TMS320LF2407 are designed. This control system has its compacted configuration and reliability. Finally, using this system to control the MAV for simulating the flying forward, experimental results show the MAV’s flight attitude can be controlled based on the variation of the elastic linkage.

乙烯基聚合物和(口恶)二唑衍生物的电致发光器件中激基复合物的蓝色发射

Two types of molecular and polymer devices employing (2-(4′-biphenyl)-5-(4““““““““-tert-butylphenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole) (PBD)and poly(N-vinylcarbazole) (PVK) as electron transport and hole transport materials, respectively, have been fabricated. The structures of these two devices are ITO/PVK( 70 nm)/PBD(60 nm)/A1 and ITO/PVK: PBD (1:1 by mass, 70 nm)/A1. The formation of exciplex is evident by comparing the electroluminescence (EL) of a bi-layer device and the photoluminescence (PL) of a PVK and PBD mixed film.The maximum emission energy of exciplex evaluated is consistent with the peak emission of EL. Blue emissions from both devices are obtained. The type of exicplex is interpreted based on the energy level diagram of the bi-layer device.     

Analysis of vertical pressure on buried pipeline with case study

This paper introduces a formula for the vertical pressure on a buried pipeline by using a modification of the basic assumptions of Marston’s theory. The fill’s cohesion is considered. The included angle between the slide surface above the pipeline and the horizontal surface is assumed to be equal to the fill’s angle of friction. The friction is calculated by multiplying the active earth pressure on the outer column and the coefficient of the friction on the slide planes It was found that the fill’s cohesion had important influence on the vertical pressure, whose vertical pressureC _c decreases with increase of the fill depth, a relationship according with that observed in practice. At the end of the paper, the formula is employed to analyze a practical case. Project (No. RC9609) supported by Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC)     

Admissibility Conditions for Symbolic Sequences in Dynamics of Digital Filter with Two＇s Complement Arithmetic

In this paper, we discuss a class of piecewise linear hyperbolic maps on the 2-torus. These maps arise in the second-order digital fdter with two＇ s complement arithmetic. By introducing codings underlying the map operations, we give some admissibility conditions for symbolic sequences and find some periodic properties of these symbolic sequences. Then we use these conditions to check the admissibility of periodic symbol sequences.     

Polynomial-time interior-point algorithm based on a local self-concordant finite barrier function

The choice of self-concordant functions is the key to efficient algorithms for linear and quadratic convex optimizations, which provide a method with polynomial-time iterations to solve linear and quadratic convex optimization problems. The parameters of a self-concordant barrier function can be used to compute the complexity bound of the proposed algorithm. In this paper, it is proved that the finite barrier function is a local self-concordant barrier function. By deriving the local values of parameters of this barrier function, the desired complexity bound of an interior-point algorithm based on this local self-concordant function for linear optimization problem is obtained. The bound matches the best known bound for small-update methods.

Run-to-run product quality control of batch processes

Batch processes have been increasingly used in the production of low volume and high value added products. Consequently, optimization control in batch processes is crucial in order to derive the maximum benefit. In this paper, a run-to-run product quality control based on iterative learning optimization control is developed. Moreover, a rigorous theorem is proposed and proven in this paper, which states that the tracking error under the optimal iterative learning control (ILC) law can converge to zero. In this paper, a typical nonlinear batch continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR) is considered, and the results show that the performance of trajectory tracking is gradually improved by the ILC.

Dynamics in Two Periodically Driven and Weakly Coupled Bose-Einstein Condensates

In this paper, dynamics in the oscillations of the relative atomic population in two periodically driven and weakly coupled Bose-Einstein eondensates (BECs) was qualitatively studied. Using the well-known Melnikov method, the conditions of existence of the periodic and chaotic coherent atomic tunnellings were given in the model. Our results indicate the typical route from bifurcation of the limited circles to chaos, and are in agreement with the previous numerical results.     

Reaction thrust of water jet for conical nozzles

Clear knowledge on the reaction thrust of water jet is valuable for better design of water jet propulsion system. In
this paper, theoretical, numerical and experimental studies were carried out to investigate the effects of the nozzle geometry
as well as the inlet conditions on the reaction thrust of water jet. Comparison analyses reveal that the reaction thrust has a
direct proportional relationship with the product of the inlet pressure, the square of flow rate and two-thirds power exponent
of the input power. The results also indicate that the diameter of the cylinder column for the conical nozzle has great influence
on the reaction thrust characteristics. In addition, the best values of the half cone angle and the cylinder column length exist
to make the reaction thrust reach its maximum under the same inlet conditions．

Surface morphologies of aluminum films on silicone oil surfaces

The surface morphology and growth mechanism of an aluminum film system deposited on silicone oil surfaces by a vapor depositing method was investigated by scanning electron microscopy. It was found that the perpendicular fluctuation of the film's bottom surface was more remarkable than that of the film's top surface. Near the joint between the film on the silicone oil substrate and the film on the silicon wafer surface on which the silicone oil substrate rested, was a naturally formed anomalous wedge-shaped wrinkly structure with slopes of 10⁻⁴–10⁻⁵ rad, whose growth mechanism could be interpreted under the assumption of the thermal expansion behavior of the liquid substrates.
