Interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy aggregation operators

The notion of the interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy set （IVIFS） is a generalization of that of the Atanassov＇s intuitionistic fuzzy set. The fundamental characteristic of IVIFS is that the values of its membership function and non-membership function are intervals rather than exact numbers. There are various averaging operators defined for IVlFSs. These operators are not monotone with respect to the total order of IVIFS, which is undesirable. This paper shows how such averaging operators can be represented by using additive generators of the product triangular norm, which simplifies and extends the existing constructions. Moreover, two new aggregation operators based on the t.ukasiewicz triangular norm are proposed, which are monotone with respect to the total order of IVIFS. Finally, an application of the interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy weighted averaging operator is given to multiple criteria decision making.

Magnetic nanoparticle-modified hollow double-shell SiC@C@FeCo with excellent electromagnetic wave absorption

Integrated micro and nanostructures,heterogeneous components,defects,and interfaces is the way to develop high-performance microwave absorbing materials.However,there still needs to be more precise experimental routes and effective validation.In this work,by a continuous process of vacuum sintering,hydrothermal,and carbon thermal reduction,magnetic FeCo nanoparticles were successfully embedded on the hollow double-shell mesoporous SiC@C surface,thus solving the challenges of a single component loss mechanism.The hollow double-shell nanostructure introduces air to enhance impedance matching while significantly reducing the density of the material.The extensive defects and heterogeneous grain boundaries effectively enhance the polarization loss capacity.The magnetic loss mechanism introduced by the magnetic particles effectively improves the impedance matching properties of the material.The synergy of these multiple advantages has enabled the SCFC_(2)-8(here SiC@C@FeCo is abbreviated to SCFC,2 represents the initial metal ion content,and 8 represents the hydrothermal time)sample to achieve an adequate absorption bandwidth of 6.09 GHz at 2.0 mm.With a minimum reflection loss of-60.56 dB,the absorption bandwidth can cover the entire C,X,and Ku bands by adjusting the matching thickness(1.3–4.0 mm).This work provides a valuable paradigm for the deeper exploitation of microwave absorption potential and guides the development of other high-performance materials.

Sensing of ultrasonic fields based on polarization parametric indirect microscopic imaging

This Letter tackles the issue of non-contact detection of ultrasonic fields by utilizing a novel optical method based on the parametric indirect microscopic imaging(PIMI) technique. A general theoretical model describing the three-dimensional anisotropic photoelastic effect in solid was developed. The mechanism of polarization status variations of light passing through the stress and strain fields was analyzed. Non-contact measurements of the ultrasonic field propagating in an isotropic quartz glass have been fulfilled by the PIMI technique under different ultrasonic excitation conditions. PIMI parameters such as sin δ, Φ, and the Stokes parameters have been found to be sensitive to ultrasonic fields.
