In order to...The corrosion properties of aluminum-lithium(Al-Li) alloys, which are potential materials used to construct for tanks of liquid rockets or missiles, are essential for safe propellant storage and transport. In order to manifest the corrosion resistance of the 2195 Al-Li alloy in practical propellant tanks filled with N2O4, the alloy was soaked in 30% nitric acid solution, an accelerating corrosion environment, to test its corrosion behavior. Scanning electron microscopy(SEM) and transmission electron microscopy(TEM)were used to characterize microstructure and corrosion morphology of the alloy. Focused ion beam(FIB),combined with SEM, was used to demonstrate localized corrosion features and the propagation of corrosion pathways beneath the alloy surface. It was found that the corrosion network was formed with most intergranular corrosion and sparse intragranular corrosion. Additionally, the distribution and number of intermetallic particles influenced the localized corrosion degree and the direction of corrosion pathways. Aggregated particles made corrosion pathways continuously and caused more severe corrosion. The results from this work were valid and useful to corrosion prevention and protection for storage safety on propellant tanks in N_(2)O_(4).展开更多

However,in the using process, the user only concerns with the detection capabilities rather than coverage performance. To establish the relationship between these two aspects, the reconnaissance processes of normal stochastic targets are considered and the mathematic models of detection processes are built. The indicators of coverage performance are used to evaluate the detection probability and expectation of detection time delay, which are important factors in reconnaissance constellation estimation viewed from military intelligence discipline. The conclusions confirmed by the final simulation will be useful in LEO reconnaissance constellation design, optimization and evaluation.展开更多

The experimental results show that the interfacial between TiB2 and Fe was smooth and clear, and the composite bending strength increased with the addition of Fe, however, the hardness decreased accordingly. The thermodynamics of the composites preparation process was calculated. The calculation results show that the primary chemical reaction was the reaction between Ti and B. The extra B can react with Fe, producing the brittle phase Fe2 B. By increasing Ti, the production of Fe2B will decrease and a few of Ti-Fe intermetallic compound will be produced by the reaction between Ti and Fe in the composites. Finally, according to the Merzhanov condition of the adiabatic system, it is concluded that the Fe content must be selected between 16.3% and 54.3% by the thermodynamics temperature of reaction calculation.展开更多

文摘Combining periodic layered structure with three-dimensional cylindrical local resonators,a hybrid metastructure with improved wave isolation ability was designed and investigated through theoretical and numerical approaches.The metastructure is composed of periodic rubber layers and concrete layers embedded with three-dimensional resonators,which can be freely designed with multi local resonant frequencies to attenuate vibrations at required frequencies and widen the attenuation bandgap.The metastructure can also effectively attenuate seismic responses.Compared with layered rubber-based structures,the metastructure has more excellent wave attenuation effects with greater attenuation and wider bandgap.
文摘In the design problem of low earth orbit(LEO) reconnaissance satellite constellation, optimization of coverage performance is the design goal in most current methods. However,in the using process, the user only concerns with the detection capabilities rather than coverage performance. To establish the relationship between these two aspects, the reconnaissance processes of normal stochastic targets are considered and the mathematic models of detection processes are built. The indicators of coverage performance are used to evaluate the detection probability and expectation of detection time delay, which are important factors in reconnaissance constellation estimation viewed from military intelligence discipline. The conclusions confirmed by the final simulation will be useful in LEO reconnaissance constellation design, optimization and evaluation.

文摘In this paper,a large-sized ingot of Mg–9Gd–3Y–1.5Zn–0.5Zr(wt%) alloy with a diameter of 600 mm was successfully prepared by the semi-continuous casting method.The alloy was subsequently annealed at a relatively low temperature of 430°C for 12 h as a homogenization treatment.The microstructure and room-temperature mechanical properties of the alloy were investigated systematically.The results show that the as-cast alloy contained a mass of discontinuous lamellar-shaped 18 R long-period stacking ordered(LPSO) phases with a composition of Mg10 Zn Y and an α-Mg matrix,along with net-shaped Mg5(Y,Gd) eutectic compounds at the grain boundaries.Most of the eutectic compounds dissolved after the homogenization treatment.Moreover,the amount and dimensions of the lamellar-shaped LPSO phase obviously increased after the homogenization treatment.The structure of the phase transformed into 14H-type LPSO with composition Mg12Zn(Y,Gd).The mechanical properties of the heat-treated large-sized alloy ingot are uniform.The ultimate tensile strength(UTS) and tensile yield strength(TYS) of the alloy reached 207.2 MPa and 134.8 MPa,respectively,and the elongation was 3.4%.The high performances of the large-sized alloy ingot after the homogenization treatment is attributed to the strengthening of the α-Mg solid solution and to the plentiful LPSO phase distributed over the α-Mg matrix.

文摘Based on the experimental analysis and theoretical calculation, the self-propagating high temperature synthesis of TiB2/Fe composite was studied. The experimental results show that the interfacial between TiB2 and Fe was smooth and clear, and the composite bending strength increased with the addition of Fe, however, the hardness decreased accordingly. The thermodynamics of the composites preparation process was calculated. The calculation results show that the primary chemical reaction was the reaction between Ti and B. The extra B can react with Fe, producing the brittle phase Fe2 B. By increasing Ti, the production of Fe2B will decrease and a few of Ti-Fe intermetallic compound will be produced by the reaction between Ti and Fe in the composites. Finally, according to the Merzhanov condition of the adiabatic system, it is concluded that the Fe content must be selected between 16.3% and 54.3% by the thermodynamics temperature of reaction calculation.
文摘This paper studies a multi-unmanned aerial vehicle(UAV)enabled wireless communication system,where multiple UAVs are employed to communicate with a group of ground terminals(GTs)in the presence of potential jammers.We aim to maximize the throughput overall GTs by jointly optimizing the UAVs’trajectory,the GTs’scheduling and power allocation.Unlike most prior studies,we consider the UAVs’turning and climbing angle constraints,the UAVs’three-dimensional(3D)trajectory constraints,minimum UAV-to-UAV(U2U)distance constraint,and the GTs’transmit power requirements.However,the formulated problem is a mixed-integer non-convex problem and is intractable to work it out with conventional optimization methods.To tackle this difficulty,we propose an efficient robust iterative algorithm to decompose the original problem be three sub-problems and acquire the suboptimal solution via utilizing the block coordinate descent(BCD)method,successive convex approximation(SCA)technique,and S-procedure.Extensive simulation results show that our proposed robust iterative algorithm offers a substantial gain in the system performance compared with the benchmark algorithms.

文摘A consensus-distributed fault-tolerant(CDFT)control law is proposed for a class of leader-following multi-vehicle cooperative attack(MVCA)systems in this paper.In particular,the switching communication topologies,stochastic multi-hop timevarying delays,and actuator faults are considered,which may lead to system performance degradation or on certain occasions even cause system instability.Firstly,the estimator of actuator faults for the following vehicle is designed to identify the actuator faults under a fixed topology.Then the CDFT control protocol and trajectory following error are derived by the relevant content of Lyapunov stability theory,the graph theory,and the matrix theory.The CDFT control protocol is proposed in the same manner,where a more realistic scenario is considered,in which the maximum trajectory following error and information on the switching topologies during the cooperative attack are available.Finally,numerical simulation are carried out to indicate that the proposed distributed fault-tolerant(DFT)control law is effective.

文摘For widespectrum chaotic oscillation,superlattice cryptography is an autonomous controllable brand-new technology.Originating from sequential resonance tunneling of electrons,the chaotic oscillation is susceptible to temperature change,which determines the performance of superlattices.In this paper,the temperature effects of chaotic oscillations are investigated by analyzing the randomness of a sequence at different temperatures and explained with superlattice microstates.The results show that the bias voltage at different temperatures makes spontaneous chaotic oscillations vary.With the temperature of superlattices changing,the sequence dives in entropy value and randomness at specific bias.This work fills the gap in the study of temperature stability and promotes superlattice cryptography for practice.
文摘In this paper, we extend our previous work of classical over barrier ionization (COBI) model to study the multiple ionization cross section of Ne and CO molecule collided by very high-q fast projectiles(q/v > 1). The model gives similar results to the independent-electron-approximation calculation and is in good agreement with experimental data. The very small computational time required makes it a good candidate for studying the multiple ionization of complex molecules under high linear energy transfers.

文摘With the aid of non-contact measurements of vibrating surfaces through laser scanning,operating deflection shapes(ODSs)with high spatial resolutions can be used to graphically characterize damage in plane structures.Although numerous damage identification approaches relying on laser-measured ODSs have been developed for plate-type structures,they cannot be directly applied to circular cylinders due to the gap between equations of motions of plates and circular cylinders.To fill this gap,a novel approach is proposed in this study for damage identification of circular cylinders.Damage-induced discontinuities of the derivatives of ODSs can be used to gra-phically manifest the occurrence of the damage,and characterize the location and size of the damage.The approach is experimentally validated on a specimen of the circular cylinder component,whose out-of-plane ODSs in an inspection region are acquired through laser scanning using a scanning laser vibrometer.The results suggest that the occurrence,location,and size of the internal damage of the circular cylinder can be identified.
