Magnetic moment distributions in a-Fe nanowire array

a-Fe nanowire array has been electrodeposited into anodic aluminum oxide template. The magnetic moment distributions, in the interior and near the extremities of a-Fe nanowire with 60 nm in diameter, have been studied by means of transmission M鰏sbauer spectroscopy (MS), conversion electron M鰏sbauer spectroscopy (CEMS) and micromagnetic simulation. Transmission M鰏sbauer spectrum (MS) shows that the magnetic moments, inside the a-Fe nanowire array, are well parallel to nanowire, while conversion electron M鰏sbauer spectrum (CEMS) reveals that the magnetic moments, near the extremities of nanowire, diverge from the long axis of wire, and the average diverging angle calculated by the intensity ratio of the 2,5 peaks is about 24.0°. Moreover, the magnetic moment distributions of different depths to the top of wire are counted using micromagnetic simulation, which indicates that, the interior magnetic moments are strictly parallel to nanowire, and the closer the magnetic moment to the top of wire, the larger the diverging angle. Magnetic measurement shows that this -Fe nanowire array represents a strong magnetic anisotropy.

Direct Yaw Moment Control for Distributed Drive Electric Vehicle Handling Performance Improvement

For a distributed drive electric vehicle（DDEV） driven by four in-wheel motors, advanced vehicle dynamic control methods can be realized easily because motors can be controlled independently, quickly and precisely. And direct yaw-moment control（DYC） has been widely studied and applied to vehicle stability control. Good vehicle handling performance： quick yaw rate transient response, small overshoot, high steady yaw rate gain, etc, is required by drivers under normal conditions, which is less concerned, however. Based on the hierarchical control methodology, a novel control system using direct yaw moment control for improving handling performance of a distributed drive electric vehicle especially under normal driving conditions has been proposed. The upper-loop control system consists of two parts： a state feedback controller, which aims to realize the ideal transient response of yaw rate, with a vehicle sideslip angle observer; and a steering wheel angle feedforward controller designed to achieve a desired yaw rate steady gain. Under the restriction of the effect of poles and zeros in the closed-loop transfer function on the system response and the capacity of in-wheel motors, the integrated time and absolute error（ITAE） function is utilized as the cost function in the optimal control to calculate the ideal eigen frequency and damper coefficient of the system and obtain optimal feedback matrix and feedforward matrix. Simulations and experiments with a DDEV under multiple maneuvers are carried out and show the effectiveness of the proposed method： yaw rate rising time is reduced, steady yaw rate gain is increased, vehicle steering characteristic is close to neutral steer and drivers burdens are also reduced. The control system improves vehicle handling performance under normal conditions in both transient and steady response. State feedback control instead of model following control is introduced in the control system so that the sense of control intervention to drivers is relieved.

QUANTIFYING THE SHORT LIFETIME WITH TCSPC-FLIM:FIRST MOMENT VERSUS FITTING METHODS

Combing the time corelated single photon counting(TCSPC)with fuorescence lifetime imaging microscopy(FLIM)provides promising opportunities in revealing important information on the microenvironment of cells and tissues,but the applications are thus far mainly limited by the accuracy and precision of the TCSPC-FLIM technique.Here we present a comprehensive in-vestigation on the perforance of two data analysis methods,the first moment(M_(1))method and the conventional least squares(Fitting)method,in quantifying fuorescence lifetime.We found that the Mp method is more superior than the Fitting method when the lifetime is short(70-400ps)or the signal intensity is weak(<10^(3) photons).

Transitioning from Discrete to Continuous Distribution Mathematica vs. Excel —An Example

Frequencies of the repeated integers of the first n digits of e.g. π utilizing commercial software are listed. The discrete distribution is utilized to evaluate its statistical moments. The distribution is fitted with a polynomial generating a continuous replica of the former. Its statistical moments are evaluated and compared to the former. The procedure clarifies the mechanism transiting from discrete to a continuous domain. Applying Mathematica the fitted polynomial is replaced with an interpolated function with controlled smoothing factor refining the quality of the fit and its corresponding moments. Knowledge learned assists in the understanding of the standard procedure calculating moments of e.g. Maxwell-Boltzmann continuous distribution in kinetic Theory of gases.

Numerical study of viscosity and heat flux role in heavy species dynamics in Hall thruster discharge

A two-and three-dimensional velocity space axisymmetric hybrid-PIC model of Hall thruster discharge called Hybrid2D has been developed.The particle-in-cell(PIC) method was used for neutrals and ions(heavy species),and fluid dynamics on a magnetic field-aligned(MFA) mesh was used for electrons.A time-saving method for heavy species moment interpolation on a MFA mesh was developed.The method comprises using regular rectangle and irregular triangle meshes,connected to each other on a pre-processing stage.The electron fluid model takes into account neither inertia terms nor viscous terms and includes an electron temperature equation with a heat flux term.The developed model was used to calculate all heavy species moments up to the third one in a stationary case.The analysis of the viscosity and the heat flux impact on the force and energy balance has shown that for the calculated geometry of the Hall thruster,the viscosity and the heat flux terms have the same magnitude as the other terms and could not be omitted.Also,it was shown that the heat flux is not proportional to the temperature gradient and,consequently,the highest moments should be calculated to close the neutral fluid equation system.At the same time,ions can only be modeled as a cold non-viscous fluid when the sole aim of modeling is the calculation of the operating parameters or distribution of the local parameters along the centerline of the discharge channel.This is because the magnitude of the viscosity and the temperature gradient terms are negligible at the centerline.However,when a simulation’s focus is either on the radial divergence of the plume or on magnetic pole erosion,three components of the ion temperature should be taken into consideration.The non-diagonal terms of ion pressure tensor have a lower impact than the diagonal terms.According to the study,a zero heat flux condition could be used to close the ion equation system in calculated geometry.

Four Wheel Independent Drive Electric Vehicle Lateral Stability Control Strategy

In this paper,a kind of lateral stability control strategy is put forward about the four wheel independent drive electric vehicle.The design of control system adopts hierarchical structure.Unlike the previous control strategy,this paper introduces a method which is the combination of sliding mode control and optimal allocation algorithm.According to the driver’s operation commands(steering angle and speed),the steady state responses of the sideslip angle and yaw rate are obtained.Based on this,the reference model is built.Upper controller adopts the sliding mode control principle to obtain the desired yawing moment demand.Lower controller is designed to satisfy the desired yawing moment demand by optimal allocation of the tire longitudinal forces.Firstly,the optimization goal is built to minimize the actuator cost.Secondly,the weighted least-square method is used to design the tire longitudinal forces optimization distribution strategy under the constraint conditions of actuator and the friction oval.Beyond that,when the optimal allocation algorithm is not applied,a method of axial load ratio distribution is adopted.Finally,Car Sim associated with Simulink simulation experiments are designed under the conditions of different velocities and different pavements.The simulation results show that the control strategy designed in this paper has a good following effect comparing with the reference model and the sideslip angle is controlled within a small rang at the same time.Beyond that,based on the optimal distribution mode,the electromagnetic torque phase of each wheel can follow the trend of the vertical force of the tire,which shows the effectiveness of the optimal distribution algorithm.

ANOMALOUS BEHAVIOR REVISITED:DYNAMIC RESPONSE OF ELASTIC-PLASTIC STRUCTURES

Based on the minimum principle of acceleration in the elastic-plastic continua under finite def ormation, the dynamic response of an elastic-perfectly plastic pin-ended beam subjected to rectangular impulse loading is studied with the help of a numerical approach. The calculated results once again show the anomalous behavior of the beam during its response process, which was previously found in [1]. By carefully analyzing the instantaneous distribution of the bending moment, the membrane force, the curvature and displacement during the response process, it is concluded that the interactive effect between the geometry and materials nonlinearities of the structure is the key reason for leading to the anomalous behavior. This will be helpful for clarifying some misunderstandings in explaining the problem before.

Generative Adversarial Networks with Joint Distribution Moment Matching

Generative adversarial networks(GANs)have shown impressive power in the field of machine learning.Traditional GANs have focused on unsupervised learning tasks.In recent years,conditional GANs that can generate data with labels have been proposed in semi-supervised learning and have achieved better image quality than traditional GANs.Conditional GANs,however,generally only minimize the difference between marginal distributions of real and generated data,neglecting the difference with respect to each class of the data.To address this challenge,we propose the GAN with joint distribution moment matching(JDMM-GAN)for matching the joint distribution based on maximum mean discrepancy,which minimizes the differences of both the marginal and conditional distributions.The learning procedure is iteratively conducted by the stochastic gradient descent and back-propagation.We evaluate JDMM-GAN on several benchmark datasets,including MNIST,CIFAR-10 and the Extended Yale Face.Compared with the state-of-the-art GANs,JDMM-GAN generates more realistic images and achieves the best inception score for CIFAR-10 dataset.
