Microstructure, micro-hardness, adhesion strength and cross-sectional morphology of the obtained multilayer coatings were investigated. The results show that the Vickers hardness of Ti/TiN/Zr/ZrN multilayer coating, with a film thickness of 11.37 μm, is 29.36 GPa. The erosion and salt spray resistance performance of Cr_17Ni_2 steel substrates can be evidently improved by Ti/TiN/Zr/ZrN multilayer coating. The surface roughness of Cr_17Ni_2 steel substrates plays an important role in determining the mechanical and erosion performances of Ti/TiN/Zr/ZrN multilayer coatings. Overall, a low value of the surface roughness of substrates corresponds to an improved performance of erosion and salt spray resistance of multilayer coatings. The optimized performance of Ti/TiN/Zr/ZrN multilayer coatings can be achieved provided that the surface roughness of Cr_17Ni_2 steel substrates is lower than 0.4μm.展开更多

With the characteristics of local connectivity, pooling and weight sharing,a six-layer CNNs structure is used to demodulate and eliminate ISI. The results showthat with the symbol rate of 1. 07 k Bd, the bandwidth of the band-pass filter( BPF) in a transmitter of 1 k Hz and the changing number of carrier cycles in a symbol K = 5,10,15,28, the overall bit error ratio( BER) performance of CNNs with single-symbol decision is superior to that with a doublesymbol united-decision. In addition, the BER performance of single-symbol decision is approximately 0. 5 d B better than that of the coherent demodulator while K equals the total number of carrier circles in a symbol, i. e., K = N = 28. With the symbol rate of 1. 07 k Bd, the bandwidth of BPF in a transmitter of 500 Hz and K = 5,10,15,28, the overall BER performance of CNNs with double-symbol united-decision is superior to those with single-symbol decision. Moreover, the double-symbol uniteddecision method is approximately 0. 5 to 1. 5 d B better than that of the coherent demodulator while K = N = 28. The demodulators based on CNNs successfully solve the serious ISI problems generated during the transmission of FTN rate bipolar EBPSK signals, which is beneficial for the improvement of spectrum efficiency.展开更多

The results reveal that the second and third methods lead to consistent results with deviations below 5%. And from the determined double layer capacitance and CO stripping charge, it is deduced that the double layer capacity unit area is 23.1±0.4μF/cm2 and the saturated CO adlayer should be ca. 0.66 ML in order to ensure that the real surface area as determined is consistent with the other two techniques. The applicability as well as the attentions when applying these techniques for the determination of the real surface area of pc-Pd electrodes have been discussed.展开更多

This can generate some difficulties in the DSSS signal acquisition due to the polarity inversion caused by the data modulation. To eliminate the influence due to polarity inversion, this paper proposes a novel acquisition algorithm based on the simultaneous search of the code phase, data phase and Doppler frequency. In the proposed algorithm the data phase is predicted and the correlation period for the coherent integration can be set equal to the symbol duration. Then non-coherent accumulation over different symbol is implemented in order to enhance the acquisition algorithm sensitivity; the interval of non-coherent accumulation is the least common multiple between the symbol duration and the pseudo code period. The algorithm proposed can largely minimize the SNR loss caused by data polarity inversion and enhance acquisition performance without a noticeable increase in hardware complexity. Theoretical analysis, simulation and measured results verify the validity of the algorithm.展开更多

The LWS uses the electric field intensity at the ground as a parameter to warn the possibility of lightning strikes. A planar shutter type electric field mill (EFM) with a rotating vane is studied to measure the electric field.

The proposed beamformer not only considers the norm bounded uncertainties in the desired and received signal covariance matrices, but also includes an additional positive semidefinite constraint on the desired signal covariance matrix. Based on the worst-case performance optimization criterion, a computationally simple closed-form weight vector is obtained. Simulation results verify the validity and robustness of the proposed beamforming method.展开更多

During the composite electrodeposition process, the hydrophobic PS microspheres were highly dispersed in the electrolyte with the help of a surfactant, and then co-deposited with Ni to form the film electrode. After removing the PS templates by annealing, a porous Ni film containing large amount of uniformly dispersed pores with narrow size distribution was obtained, and then applied as the electrode for the HER in an alkaline medium. As evidenced by the electrochemical analysis, the porous Ni film electrode exhibits higher catalytic activity as compared to a dense Ni film electrode and is superior to a Ni/Ru O2/Ce O2 commercial electrode. The effect of temperature on the catalytic properties of the porous Ni film electrode was also investigated; the activation energy was calculated as 17.26 k J/mol. The enhanced activity toward the HER was attributed to the improved electrochemical surface area and mass transportation facilitated by the high porosity of the synthesized Ni film electrode.展开更多

Catlin-D'Angelo and Varolin deduced this positivstellensatz of Quillen from the eventual positive-definiteness of an associated integral operator. Their arguments involve asymptotic expansions of the Bergman kernel. The goal of this article is to give an elementary proof of the positive-definiteness of this integral operator.展开更多

The aim of the present study was to determine the changes in the content and distribution of total polar compounds (TPC) in CSO during heating. TPC were isolated by means of preparative flash chromatography and further analyzed by high-performance size-exclusion chromatography (HPSEC) The TPC content of CSO increased from 4.74% to 25.29%, showing a significantly lower formation rate as compared to that of extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) and soybean oil (SBO) during heating. Furthermore, heating also resulted in significant differences (P〈0.05) in the distribution of TPC among these oils. Though the content of oxidized triacyl- glycerol dimers, oxidized triacylglycerol oligomers, and oxidized triacylglycerol monomers significantly increased in all these oils, their increased percentages were much less in CSO than those in EVOO, indicating that CSO has a greater ability to resist oxidation. This work may be useful for the food oil industry and consumers in helping to choose the correct oil and to decide on the useful lifetime of the oil.展开更多

文摘Lithium(Li)metal is promising for high energy density batteries due to its low electrochemical redox potential and high specific capacity.However,the formation of dendrites and its tendency for large volume expansion during plating/stripping restrict the application of Li metal in practical scenarios.In this work,we developed reduced graphene oxide-graphitic carbon nitride(rGO-C3N4,GCN)with highly elastic and wrinkled structure as the current collector.Lithiophilic site C3N4 in GCN could reduce the nucleation overpotential.In addition,this material effectively inhibited electrode expansion during cycling.At the same time,due to its high elasticity,GCN could release the stress induced by Li deposition to maintain structural integrity of the electrode.Limetal anodes with GCN exhibited small volume expansion,high Coulombic efficiency(CE)of 98.6%within 300 cycles and long cycling life of more than 1700 h.This work described and demonstrated a new approach to construct flexible current collectors for stable lithium-metal anodes.

文摘We propose a low complexity robust beamforming method for the general-rank signal model, to combat against mismatches of the desired signal array response and the received signal covariance matrix. The proposed beamformer not only considers the norm bounded uncertainties in the desired and received signal covariance matrices, but also includes an additional positive semidefinite constraint on the desired signal covariance matrix. Based on the worst-case performance optimization criterion, a computationally simple closed-form weight vector is obtained. Simulation results verify the validity and robustness of the proposed beamforming method.

文摘A highly porous nickel-film electrode with satisfactory mechanical strength was prepared by a facile vertical template-assisted composite electrodeposition method using polystyrene(PS) microspheres templates, with the aim of improving the electrocatalytic activity for the hydrogen-evolution reaction(HER). During the composite electrodeposition process, the hydrophobic PS microspheres were highly dispersed in the electrolyte with the help of a surfactant, and then co-deposited with Ni to form the film electrode. After removing the PS templates by annealing, a porous Ni film containing large amount of uniformly dispersed pores with narrow size distribution was obtained, and then applied as the electrode for the HER in an alkaline medium. As evidenced by the electrochemical analysis, the porous Ni film electrode exhibits higher catalytic activity as compared to a dense Ni film electrode and is superior to a Ni/Ru O2/Ce O2 commercial electrode. The effect of temperature on the catalytic properties of the porous Ni film electrode was also investigated; the activation energy was calculated as 17.26 k J/mol. The enhanced activity toward the HER was attributed to the improved electrochemical surface area and mass transportation facilitated by the high porosity of the synthesized Ni film electrode.
文摘Quillen proved that if a Hermitian bihomogeneous polynomial is strictly positive on the unit sphere, then repeated multiplication of the standard sesquilinear form to this polynomial eventually results in a sum of Hermitian squares. Catlin-D'Angelo and Varolin deduced this positivstellensatz of Quillen from the eventual positive-definiteness of an associated integral operator. Their arguments involve asymptotic expansions of the Bergman kernel. The goal of this article is to give an elementary proof of the positive-definiteness of this integral operator.

文摘Camellia seed oil (CSO) is rich in oleic acid and has a high number of active components, which give the oil high nutritional value and a variety of biological activity. The aim of the present study was to determine the changes in the content and distribution of total polar compounds (TPC) in CSO during heating. TPC were isolated by means of preparative flash chromatography and further analyzed by high-performance size-exclusion chromatography (HPSEC) The TPC content of CSO increased from 4.74% to 25.29%, showing a significantly lower formation rate as compared to that of extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) and soybean oil (SBO) during heating. Furthermore, heating also resulted in significant differences (P〈0.05) in the distribution of TPC among these oils. Though the content of oxidized triacyl- glycerol dimers, oxidized triacylglycerol oligomers, and oxidized triacylglycerol monomers significantly increased in all these oils, their increased percentages were much less in CSO than those in EVOO, indicating that CSO has a greater ability to resist oxidation. This work may be useful for the food oil industry and consumers in helping to choose the correct oil and to decide on the useful lifetime of the oil.
