Composite wave-absorbing structure combining thin plasma and metasurface

In order to solve the thickness dependence of plasma absorption of electromagnetic waves and further reduce the backward radar scattering cross section(RCS)of the target,we designed a novel composite structure of a metasurface and plasma.A metasurface with three absorption peaks is designed by means of an equivalent circuit based on an electromagnetic resonance type metamaterial absorber.The reflection and absorption of the composite structure are numerically and experimentally verified.The finite integration method was used to simulate a composite structure of finite size to obtain the RCS.The experimental measurements of electromagnetic wave reflection were conducted by a vector network analyzer(Keysight N5234A)and horn antennas,etc.The research showed that the absorption capacity of this composite structure was substantially improved compared to either the plasma or the metasurface,and it is more convenient for application due to its low plasma thickness requirement and easy fabrication.

Load Transferring Mechanism on Transition Section of Composite Bucket Foundation for Offshore Wind Turbines

The composite bucket foundation(CBF) is a new kind of foundation which has been applied in the offshore wind industry. A reasonable connection pattern between the tower and the CBF top cover is crucial for load transmissions from the superstructure. Therefore, it is essential to choose an optimum structure type for the transition section. The line type and the arc transition section models were established by ABAQUS, and the internal forces of cross section were extracted along the height direction. Specifically, the force transfer mechanism for different types of the transition sections was investigated comparatively with monotonic as well as composite loadings. The results show that the curved transition structure exhibits the better mechanical characteristics under the monotonic and composite loadings, and the reason can be illustrated that its specific arc-shape structure can effectively convert the tremendous bending moment from the turbine tower into the limited tensile and compressive stresses downwards, without the occurrence of force concentration.

Casting-cold extrusion of Al/Cu clad composite by copper tubes with different sketch sections

Casting-cold extrusion technology was presented to fabricate aluminum/copper clad composite,and copper tubes with different sketch sections were designed.The technology of aluminum/copper clad composite fabricated by casting-cold extrusion was simulated by DEFORM software using tubes with four arc grooves.The stress and strain in different deformation zones were analyzed.The groove size reduces gradually and the groove shape drives to triangle during the extrusion procedure.The maximum values of equivalent effective stress and radial stress appear in groove zones,and the maximum equivalent effective strain firstly is obtained also in groove zones.The grain size in groove zones is less than that in other zones.The experimental results are consistent with simulation results,which prove that the copper tubes with sketch section are favorable to the metallurgy bond of boundary interface between aluminum and copper.

Cross-sectional analysis on microstructure of plasma-sprayed HA+TiO_2 composite coatings on titanium substrate

The cross-sectional analysis on hydroxyapatite （HA） coating and HA+TiO2 composite coating was conducted by using electron probe microanalyser （EPMA）. The results reveal that annealing at 650 ℃ leads to the cracking within the HA coating or along the coating/substrate interface. The ribbon-like regions in HA coating are verified to contain less PO4-4 groups resulted from the high temperature melting of HA particles in plasma flame. From the viewpoint of microstructural observation, it can be concluded that the addition of TiO2 into HA coating can effectively strengthen and toughen the whole coating system with a shift of the well-bonded interface from the THA （top HA） coating/HTBC （HA+TiO2 bond coat） interface in the as-sprayed THBC （top HA-HTBC） coating to the HTBC/Ti substrate interface in the heat treated THBC coating. The THA coating bonds well to Ti substrate perhaps via its TiO2 hobnobbing with the Ti oxides formed on the Ti substrate.

Evolution of Carbon Isotope Composition in Potential Global Stratotype Section and Point at Luoyixi, South China, for the Base of the Unnamed Global Seventh Stage of Cambrian System

This work deals with the evolution of carbon isotope composition in the Luoyixi （罗依溪） Section, a candidate of the Global Standard Stratotype-section and Point （GSSP）, defining the base of the as-yet-undefined seventh stage of Cambrian System at the first appearance of the cosmopolitan agnostoid Lejopyge iaevigata. This level is favored in a vote of International Subcommission on Cambrian Stratigraphy （ISCS） as the biohorizon for defining the base of a global stage. Two hundred and sixty-four samples for carbon and oxygen isotope analysis have been collected from the carbonate successions at an interval of 0.25 to 0.5 m in this section. Results of the carbon isotope data exhibit a remarkable disciplinarian trend. The pattern of the carbon isotope evolution is gently undulant with a relatively long period during the underlying Drumian Stage, and then the values of δ13C fluctuate sharply with a short period in provisional seventh stage. The onset of sharp fluctuation in the δ13C values begins at the proposed GSSP level, defining the base of the global seventh stage, where δ13C values change from a gentle trend to a sharp trend. Distinct covariant-relationships among δ13C,δ18O, and sea level fluctuations suggest that a warming change in paleoclimate took place during the early global seventh stage, which led to a positive shift in δ13C values.

Porosity Effects on Interlaminar Fracture Behavior in Carbon Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Composites

Fiber-reinforced polymer composite materials have become materials of choice for manufacturing application due to their high specific stiffness, strength and fatigue life, low density and thermal expansion coefficient. However, there are some types of defects such as porosity that form during the manufacturing processes of composites and alter their mechanical behavior and material properties. In his study, hand lay-up was conducted to fabricate samples of carbon fiber-reinforced polymer composites with three different vacuum levels in order to vary porosity content. Nondestructive evaluation, destructive techniques and mechanical testing were conducted. Nondestructive evaluation results showed the trend in percentages of porosity through-thickness. Serial sectioning images revealed significant details about the composite’s internal structure such as the volume, morphology and distribution of porosity. Mechanical testing results showed that porosity led to a decrease in both Mode I static interlaminar fracture toughness and Mode I cyclic strain energy release rate fatigue life. The fractographic micrographs showed that porosity content increased as the vacuum decreased, and it drew a relationship between fracture mechanisms and mechanical properties of the composite under different modes of loading as a result of the porosity effects. Finally, in order to accurately quantify porosity percentages included in the samples of different vacuum levels, a comparison was made between the parameters and percentages resulted from the nondestructive evaluation and mechanical testing and the features resulted from fractography and serial sectioning.

Study of Second-Order Continuities of a Composite Surface

There are two classes of continuities, parametric continuities and geometric continuities, which are used to illuminate the smoothness of a composite surface in surface construction and reconstruction in computer graphics (CG) and computer aided design (CAD). A parametric continuity is more stiff than its corresponding geometric continuity of the same order. This paper uncovers the geometric properties of parametric and geometric continuities less than and equal to second order and presents the proofs for the corresponding propositions. These propositions can be applied to the existent or promising schemes of surface construction or reconstruction, which can provide a convincing theory for researchers to establish their schemes in surface construction. Three examples are used in this paper to show the applications of these propositions.

Experimental Investigations on Web Crippling Failure Modes of Aluminum Hollow and Composite Tubes

In order to study the web-crippling behavior of aluminum hollow sectionsubjected to concentrated load, sixteen aluminum hollow tubes with different loadingconditions, bearing length and web slenderness ratios were tested. This paper alsodiscussed a method to improve the web crippling strength of the aluminum hollowsections by infilling the mortar as composite section, and four aluminum compositesections were tested. The literature has reported lots of web crippling tests, but there isfew reports on web crippling behavior of aluminum composite sections. Interior-Ground(IG) and End-Ground (EG) loading conditions were adopted, with the specimens placedon the ground to simulate the load of floor joists. Specimens were also placed on abearing plate with end (ETF) or interior (ITF) bearing load. The influence of supportingconditions, loading positions, bearing length and web slenderness ratios on web cripplingultimate bearing capacity and ductility of aluminum hollow sections was studied. Theenhancements of infilling mortar were also evaluated. The results obtained from theexperiments show that infilling the mortar in aluminum hollow tubes is an effectivemethod for enhancing the ultimate capacity of the web, especially for specimens underInterior-Ground (IG) condition. Based on the results of parameter research, this paperproposes a series of design formulas for well predicting web crippling ultimate capacityof aluminum hollow and composite tubes under four different loading and boundaryconditions.

Experimental research on mechanical properties of prestressed truss concrete composite beam encased with circular steel tube

Tests of 4 simply supported unbonded prestressed truss concrete composite beams encased with circular steel tube were carried out. It is found that the ratio of the stress increment of the unbonded tendon to that of the tensile steel tube is 0.252 during the using stage,and the average crack space of beams depends on the ratio of the sum of the bottom chord steel tube's outside diameter and the secondary bottom chord steel tube's section area to the effective tensile concrete area. The coefficient of uneven crack distribution is 1.68 and the formula for the calculation of crack width is established. Test results indicate that the ultimate stress increment of unbonded tendon in the beams decreases in linearity with the increase of the composite reinforcement index β0. The pure bending region of beams accords with the plane section assumption from loading to failure. The calculation formula of ultimate stress increment of the unbonded tendon and the method to calculate the bearing capacity of normal section of beams have been presented. Besides,the method to calculate the stiffness of this sort of beams is brought forward as well.

The Angular Distribution of Light Composite Particle Projectile in Preequilibrium Reactions

Formulations of double differential cross sections of light composite particleconsidering (1,m) and (2,m) pickup type reactions simultaneously for semi-classicalmulti-step compound and direct processes are presented.The calculated results of crosssections,spectra,and double differential cross sections indicate that generally the con-tributions of the (2,m) pickup type reactions are about 15%-25% when the incident en-ergies are below 50 MeV but can become dominant when the incident energies areabove 50 MeV in some region of the outgoing energies and angles.The forward tenden-cy of the calculated angular distributions by (2,m) configuration is weaker than those by(1,m) configuration.For the reactions of outgoing composite particle with higher inci-dent energy,the multi-step direct process must be considered.

矿物组分识别与智能解释在不同岩性之间的信息共享与迁移学习

在地球科学领域,岩石微观观测数据的采集过程繁琐且效率低下,这不仅增加了研究成本,降低了可靠性,同时也限制了数据的开源共享。此外,由于岩性的多样性和观测手段的差异,单一数据集的规模通常较小,这对于依赖大规模数据集的深度学习框架而言是一大挑战。为此,本研究探索迁移学习如何促进不同岩性间的信息共享,并通过此机制提高矿物组分识别与智能解释任务的模型性能。通过采集不同区域、岩性、矿物组分和偏光模式下的铸体薄片样本,本文深入研究了深度学习模型在不同观测对象和手段下的迁移学习机制,并聚焦于探索地质信息的深层表征。研究成果不但揭示了迁移学习在促进地质学领域信息共享与模型性能提升中的关键作用,还为自动化和智能化地质认识融合奠定了基础。实验结果显示,通过迁移学习,本文模型在智能解释任务中的准确率显著提高,从53.3%提高至98.73%,而在矿物组分识别任务中,准确率也实现了近10%的提升。这些成果证明了迁移学习在地质学领域内解决实际问题和提高模型泛化能力、性能和稳定性方面的巨大潜力。

钢-UHPC结合段PBL连接件和钢梁端面承压联合作用研究

钢-混结合段作为钢梁和混凝土连接为整体的核心部件,传力构件的受力性能对钢-混凝土结合段至关重要。为提高结合段的力学性能,进行了仅有钢梁端面承压、PBL连接件和两者联合作用3组推出试验。结果表明:3组试件最终破坏裂缝分布均为钢梁端面侧“八”字形分布;钢梁端面组(D组)试件破坏模式主要为UHPC的开裂破坏而失效,PBL连接件组(P组)和联合作用组(PD组)试件主要是贯穿钢筋的剪切破坏而失效;3组试件的荷载-滑移曲线均包含弹性、裂缝开展和屈服3个阶段,由于贯穿钢筋和UHPC榫具有抑制裂缝开展和提高试件延性的作用,P组和PD组试件裂缝开展阶段较D组更短,屈服阶段更长,延性更好。对荷载-滑移曲线进行拟合,提出了钢梁端面承压和PBL连接件承载力随滑移量变化的计算公式。引入滞后滑移差Δs_(j),当Δs_(j)=0~0.67 mm时,联合作用计算结果偏于安全。计算得到钢梁端面承压传力比例约为43%,PBL连接件传力比例约为57%,两者传力效果基本相当。利用UHPC作为外包混凝土时,建议采用承载能力更高的贯穿钢筋,以充分发挥UHPC的高强性能,从而提高结合段的承载能力。
