An approach to improving maneuver performance of coning algorithm

Aiming to improve the maneuver performance of the strapdown inertial navigation attitude coning algorithm a new coning correction structure is constructed by adding a sample to the traditional compressed coning correction structure. According to the given definition of classical coning motion the residual coning correction error based on the new coning correction structure is derived. On the basis of the new structure the frequency Taylor series method is used for designing a coning correction structure coefficient and then a new coning algorithm is obtained.Two types of error models are defined for the coning algorithm performance evaluation under coning environments and maneuver environments respectively.Simulation results indicate that the maneuver accuracy of the new 4-sample coning algorithm is almost double that of the traditional compressed 4-sample coning algorithm. The new coning algorithm has an improved maneuver performance while maintaining coning performance compared to the traditional compressed coning algorithm.

Performance analysis on a novel water chiller using liquid desiccant

A new type of liquid desiccant water chiller for applications on air-conditioning and refrigeration is introduced.The system can be driven by low-grade heat sources with temperatures of 60 to 80 ℃,which can be easily obtained by a flat plat solar collector,waste heat,etc.A numerical model is developed to study the system performance.The effects of different parameters on performance are discussed,including evaporating temperature,regenerating temperature,ambient condition,and mass flow rates of closed moist air and regenerating air.The results show that an acceptable performance of a cooling capacity of 2.5 kW and a coefficient of performance of 0.37 can be achieved in a reference case.The regenerating temperature and the humidity ratios of ambient air are two main factors affecting system performance,while the temperature of ambient air functions less.In addition,the mass flow rate of regenerating air and closed moist air should be carefully determined for economical operation.

Influence of addition of B_2O_3 on properties of Yb^(3+)-doped phosphate laser glass

The three host glasses doped with Yb 3+ were prepared by means of conventional melt quenching technology, and the influence on physical and spectral properties of phosphate glass due to addition of B2O3 was investigated and compared with silicate glass. The results show that due to the existence of OH- impurities which induce the non-radiative route, the fluorescence lifetime of phosphate glass is shorter, so silicate glass has better spectral properties than phosphate glass. Silicate glass has more excellent thermal-mechanical properties than phosphate glass, but with the addition of B2O3, thermal-mechanical properties of phosphate glass are improved greatly without fluorescence quenching effect, and this kind of borophosphate glass will be the candidate to be used in high average power solid state laser.

Microstructure and mechanical properties of die-cast AZ91D magnesium alloy by Pr additions

Mg-9Al-xPr(x=0.4,0.8 and 1.2,mass fraction,%)magnesium alloys were prepared by high-pressure die-casting technique.The effects of Pr on the microstructures of die-cast Mg-9Al based alloy were investigated by XRD and SEM.Needle-like Al11Pr3 phase and polygon Al6Mn6Pr phase are found in the microstructure.With 0.4%Pr addition,fine needle-like Al11Pr3 phase and a small amount of polygon Al6Mn6Pr phase near the grain boundary are found in the microstructure.Increasing Pr addition to 0.8%, lots of coarse needle-like Al11Pr3 phase within grain and polygon Al6Mn6Pr phase on grain boundary are observed.Further increasing Pr addition,the size of needle-like Al11Pr3 phase decreases,while the size of polygon Al6Mn6Pr relatively increases.The mass fraction of Pr at around 0.8%is considered to be suitable to obtain the optimal mechanical properties.The optimal mechanical properties are mainly resulted from grain boundary strengthening obtained by precipitates and solid solution.

Effect of optimal aging treatment on magnetic performance and mechanical properties of sintered Nd-Fe-B permanent magnets

The magnetic performance and mechanical properties including hardness, brittleness, fracture toughness and strength characteristics of the as-sintered and the optimal aged Nd-Fe-B magnets were examined in this work. A new method of Vickers hardness indentation combined with acoustic emission was used to test the brittleness of the magnets.The results show that the magnetic properties of the magnets could be improved through aging treatment, especially the intrinsic coercive force. But it is accompanied by a decrease of strength and fracture toughness. Theoretical calculation confirms that acoustic emission energy accumulated count value could be used to characterize the material brittleness. The bending fracture morphologies of the as-sintered and the optimal aged Nd Fe B magnets were investigated with the emphasis on the relationship between mechanical properties and microstructure using a field emission scanning electron microscopy(FE-SEM). The research results indicate that the intergranular fracture is the primary fracture mechanism for both as-sintered and optimal aged Nd Fe B magnets. Aging treatment changes the morphology and distribution of the Nd-rich phases, reducing the sliding resistance between Nd_2Fe_(14)B main crystal grains and lowers the grain boundary strength, which is the main reason for the strength and fracture toughness decrease of the aged Nd-Fe-B magnets.

Hydriding/dehydriding properties of Mg-Ni-based ternary alloys synthesized by mechanical grinding

The Mg-Ni-based ternary alloys Mg2-xTixNi(x=0,0.2,0.4)and Mg2Ni1-xZrx(x=0,0.2,0.4)were successfully synthesized by mechanical grinding.The phases in the alloys and the hydriding/dehydriding properties of the alloys were investigated.Mg2Ni and Mg are the main hydrogen absorption phases in the alloys by XRD analysis.Hydriding kinetics curves of the alloys indicate that the hydrogen absorption rate increases after partial substitution of Ti for Mg and Zr for Ni.According to the measurement of pressure-concentration-isotherms and Van't Hoff equation,the relationship between ln p(H2)and 1 000/T was established.It is found that while increasing the content of correspondingly substituted elements at the same temperature,the equilibrium pressure of dehydriding increases,the enthalpy change and the stability of the alloy hydride decrease.

Effect of ball-milling parameter on mechanical and damping properties of sintered Mg-Zr alloy

Effects of ball-milling parameter on structures and properties of sintered Mg-l.5Zr （mass fraction, %） alloy were researched by metallographic analysis, mechanical properties tests and DMA technology. The results indicate that with 310 r/min rotation speed, the microstructure of the sintered alloy is greatly refined, and Zr-phase distributes uniformly. The micro-hardness, bending strength and damping capacities are the greatest under 310 r/min rotation speed. The damping peak of sintered Mg-l.5Zr alloy increases with increasing frequency under the testing conditions. The relaxation time meets the Arrhenius relationship, and shows the characteristics of relaxation damping.

Transformation of β to α phase of isotactic polypropylene nucleated with nano styrene butadiene rubber-based β-nucleating agent under microwave irradiation

This paper investigates the effect of microwave irradiation on theβtoαphase transformation of theβ-nucleated isotactic polypropylene(iPP).Ten microwave irradiation cycles was applied to the iPP and iPP modified with 0.3 wt%and 0.5 wt%β-NA,and the data at 2nd,4th,6th,8th and 10th irradiation were reported.As expected,the sample temperature was found to increase with the irradiation time,by more than 130°C,due to high frequency of microwave processing.This was the major factor that induced theβ-phase transformation and structural change.Both the differential scanning calorimetry(DSC)and X-ray diffraction(XRD)results indicated thatβ-phase was mainly transformed toα-phase and partially converted to the amorphous section.It was reflected as 1)the reduction of the enthalpy ofβ-crystal melting(ΔHmβ),2)the increased enthalpy ofα-crystal melting(ΔHmα),3)the decreasedβ-crystalline phase fraction(Kβ)and 4)the decrease of the overall degree of crystallinity(Xall).Under impact force,neat iPP showed a slight increase in the impact strength with the irradiation time,due to the increase of amorphous region.For theβ-iPP,it decreased due to the reduction of theβ-phase content.

Artificial neural network prediction of mechanical properties of hot rolled low carbon steel strip

Conventionally, direct tensile tests are employed to measure mechanical properties of industrially pro- duced products. In mass production, the cost of sampling and labor is high, which leads to an increase of total pro- duction cost and a decrease of production efficiency. The main purpose of this paper is to develop an intelligent pro- gram based on artificial neural network （ANN） to predict the mechanical properties of a commercial grade hot rolled low carbon steel strip, SPHC. A neural network model was developed by using 7 x 5 x 1 back-propagation （BP） neural network structure to determine the multiple relationships among chemical composition, product pro- cess and mechanical properties. Industrial on-line application of the model indicated that prediction results were in good agreement with measured values. It showed that 99.2 % of the products＇ tensile strength was accurately pre- dicted within an error margin of ~ 10 %, compared to measured values. Based on the model, the effects of chemical composition and hot rolling process on mechanical properties were derived and the relative importance of each in- put parameter was evaluated by sensitivity analysis. All the results demonstrate that the developed ANN models are capable of accurate predictions under real-time industrial conditions. The developed model can be used to sub- stitute mechanical property measurement and therefore reduce cost of production. It can also be used to control and optimize mechanical properties of the investigated steel.

Comparison between the preparation,structure and mechanical properties of long fiber reinforced thermoplastics and short fiber reinforced thermoplastic

This article summarizes the comparison between the preparation, structure and mechanical properties of long fiber reinforced thermoplastics （LFT） and short fiber reinforced thermoplastics （SFT）. Both of the experiment and theory results showed that the mechanical properties of long glass fiber reinforced thermoplastics pellets （LGFRT） have been enhanced better than that of short glass fiber reinforced thermoplastics pellets （SGFRT） manufactured by molding procession. After regulation of the relative humidity by 50 % , the mechanical properties of 30 % （ weight percent） short glass fiber content in SFT （ SFT-PA6-SGF30 ） are similar to that of 40 % long glass fiber content in LFT. Howev- er, the density of the latter is about 17 % lower than that of the former. Thus, the corresponding weight of products is reduced by 13 % ;output rate is increased by 21% , and the cost is therefore significantly lowered. And it has the fol- lowing advantages： impact strength is increased by 87 % ; the proportion is reduced by 20 % ; molding cycle is short- ened by 10 % ;materials cost is saved by 20 % -30 % and the final total cost is saved by 30 % -40 %. So LFT （LFT-PP-LGF40） can replace SFT （SFT-PA6-SGF30） with the similar basic mechanical properties under normal tem- perature or 160 ℃ lower.

Energy-Performance Tradeoffs in laaS Cloud with Virtual Machine Scheduling

In the cloud data centers,how to map virtual machines(VMs) on physical machines(PMs) to reduce the energy consumption is becoming one of the major issues,and the existing VM scheduling schemes are mostly to reduce energy consumption by optimizing the utilization of physical servers or network elements.However,the aggressive consolidation of these resources may lead to network performance degradation.In view of this,this paper proposes a two-stage VM scheduling scheme:(1) We propose a static VM placement scheme to minimize the number of activating PMs and network elements to reduce the energy consumption;(2) In the premise of minimizing the migration costs,we propose a dynamic VM migration scheme to minimize the maximum link utilization to improve the network performance.This scheme makes a tradeoff between energy efficiency and network performance.We design a new twostage heuristic algorithm for a solution,and the simulations show that our solution achieves good results.

Experimental investigation of effect of refrigerant gases,compressor lubricant and operating conditions on performance of a heat pump

In the field of heat pumps,there are a number of parameters that affect the performance and efficiency of the apparatus,which have been the subject of studies by individual researchers in the literature.This study describes an experimental method in order to investigate the effects of some significant parameters on heat pump performance.In this regard,a laboratory heat pump setup has been utilized to operate in different working conditions for achieving an appropriate estimation to find out effects of mentioned parameters such as refrigerant type and charge amount,compressor oil viscosity,compressor cooling fan,secondary fluids temperature and flow rate.Different refrigerants have been selected and used as circulating fluid in the installed heat pump.Although this work has been devoted to a detailed attempt to recognize the effects of various parameters on the coefficient of performance(COP) value,an appropriate method has been carried out to survey the obtained results by using economic analysis.It was revealed that one of the main parameters is refrigerant charge amount which has a notable effect on COP.The temperature of the heat source was also tested and the performance of the system increased by more than 11% by employing mentioned modifications and various operating conditions.In addition,by selecting a low viscosity compressor oil,the system performance increased by 18%.This improvement is more than 6% for the case that cooling fan is installed to cool the compressor element.

Fabrication and Properties of 3Y-TZP/ZrO_2 / Al_2O_3 /MgO Ceramics

Studies on the sintering, microstructure, mechanical properties and low temperature degradation behavior of yttria stabilized-tetragonal zirconia polycrystal （3Y-TZP） were carried out. The results show that the addition of Al2O3 and MgO improve the sintering at low temperatures, and cause exaggerated grain growth and the transformation of tetragonaI-ZrO2 to monoclinic-ZrO2 with corresponding changes in the mechanical properties. The addition of the yttria-free monoclinic zirconia particles change the overall yttria distribution and induce an active transformation toughening mechanism. Furthermore, the dispersed yttria-free ZrO2 can inhibit the tetragonal zirconia transformation, which is beneficial to the improvement of the low temperature degradation behavior of 3Y- TZP ceramics.

Scene-adaptive hierarchical data association and depth-invariant part-based appearance model for indoor multiple objects tracking

Indoor multi-tracking is more challenging compared with outdoor tasks due to frequent occlusion, view-truncation, severe scale change and pose variation, which may bring considerable unreliability and ambiguity to target representation and data association. So discriminative and reliable target representation is vital for accurate data association in multi-tracking. Pervious works always combine bunch of features to increase the discriminative power, but this is prone to error accumulation and unnecessary computational cost, which may increase ambiguity on the contrary. Moreover, reliability of a same feature in different scenes may vary a lot, especially for currently widespread network cameras, which are settled in various and complex indoor scenes, previous fixed feature selection schemes cannot meet general requirements. To properly handle these problems, first, we propose a scene-adaptive hierarchical data association scheme, which adaptively selects features with higher reliability on target representation in the applied scene, and gradually combines features to the minimum requirement of discriminating ambiguous targets; second, a novel depth-invariant part-based appearance model using RGB-D data is proposed which makes the appearance model robust to scale change, partial occlusion and view-truncation. The introduce of RGB-D data increases the diversity of features, which provides more types of features for feature selection in data association and enhances the final multi-tracking performance. We validate our method from several aspects including scene-adaptive feature selection scheme, hierarchical data association scheme and RGB-D based appearance modeling scheme in various indoor scenes, which demonstrates its effectiveness and efficiency on improving multi-tracking performances in various indoor scenes.

Performance Analytical Model of IEEE 802.11 Distributed Coordination Function

IEEE 802.11 distributed coordination function （DCF） is a distributed medium access scheme based on carrier sense multiple access with collision avoidance （CSMA/CA） protocol. Many literatures have analyzed the performance of IEEE802.11 DCF. However, such literatures either used simulation methods or built the analytical models under the assumption that the saturation condition was satisfied. To overcome such a problem, in this paper, a hi-dimensional Markovian model has been introduced to depict the DCF mechanism. The proposed model introduced an idle stage and a discrete time M/G/1 queue to deduce the channel throughput under finite load traffic. Simulation results proved the accuracy of the proposed model.

Analytical method for promoting process capability of shock absorption steel

Mechanical properties and low cycle fatigue are two factors that must be considered in developin gnew type steel for shock absorption. Process capability and process control are significant factors in achieving the purpose of research and development programs. Often-used evaluation methods failed to measure processyield and process centering ; so this paper uses Taguchi loss function as basis to establish an evaluation methodand the steps for assessing the quality of mechanical properties and process control of an iron and steel manu-facturer. The establishment of this method can serve the research and development and manufacturing industry and lay a foundation in enhancing its process control ability to select better manufacturing processes that are more reliable than decision making by using the other commonly used methods.

Energy conserving effects of dividing wall column

The energy-conserving performance of dividing wall column(DWC) is discussed in this paper. The heat transfer through the dividing wall is considered and the results are compared with that of common heat insulation dividing wall column(HIDWC). Based on the thermodynamic analysis of heat transfer dividing wall column(HTDWC) and HIDWC, both computer simulation and experiments are employed to analyze the energyconserving situation. Mixtures of n-hexane, n-heptane and n-octane are chosen as the example for separation.The results show that the energy consumption of HTDWC is 50.3% less than that of conventional distillation column, while it is 46.4% less than that of HIDWC. It indicates that DWC is efficient on separating threecomponent mixtures and HTDWC can save more energy than HIDWC. Thus it is necessary to consider the heat transfer while applying DWC to industry.
