The traces included representing 209 unique drivers. A Mixed-Effects Logistic Regression model was developed with probability of a SCE as the response variable and driver and work zone characteristics as predictor variables. The final model indicated glances over 1 second away from the driving task and following closely increased risk of an SCE by 3.8 times and 2.9 times, respectively. Average speed was negatively correlated to crash risk. This is counterintuitive since in most cases, it is expected that higher speeds are related to back of queue crashes. However, most queues form under congested conditions. As a result, vehicles encountering a back of queue would be more likely to be traveling at lower speeds.展开更多

Here we report GLAD method to form selfstanding TiO_2 nanostructures on specific substrates,which makes photocatalysts easier to recycle. And smart designs of doping,decorating band gap matched materials can also make traditional photocatalysts take use of more visible light. In this review,we present some previous work fabricating nanostructured TiO_2 composites for enhanced photocatalytic performance by these methods.展开更多

Through accurate control of the graded index of the SiO2 layer, transmittance of thc graded broadband AR coating can achieve an average value of 98% across a spectral range of 300-1850 nm. Moreover, a laser-induced damage threshold measurement of the fabricated AR coating is performed by using a one-on-one protocol according to ISOl1254-1, resulting in an average damage threshold of 17.2 J/cm2.展开更多

The method was applied to polycrystalline thin films (namely, titanium oxide, zinc selenide, cadmium selenide and combinations thereof) obtained by electrochemical growth, in order to determine the composition of ultra-thin surface layers, to estimate film thickness, and perform depth profiling of multilayered heterostructures. The experimental data are treated on the basis of a simple absorption-diffraction model involving the glancing angle of X-ray incidence.展开更多

The surfaces of the implanted samples were then analyzed and the TRIM 96 computer code was used to simulate the depth distribution of carbon. The valences of elements in the implanted surface of ZIRLO alloy were analyzed by X-ray photoemission spectroscopy (XPS); and then the depth distributions of the elements on the surface of the samples were obtained by Auger electron spectroscopy (AES). Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to examine the micro-morphology of implanted samples. Glancing angle X-ray diffraction (GAXRD) at 0.30 incident angles was employed to examine the phase transformations of implanted samples. It shows that the as-received ZIRLO alloy is mainly composed of hexagonal alpha zirconium, as for implanted samples, there appeared hexagonal zirconia (H-ZrO_ 0.35) and sigma zirconium carbide (δ-Zr_3C_2), and the δ-Zr_3C_2 increased when increasing the fluence. When the fluence reached 1×10 18 ions·cm -2, the concentration of δ-Zr_3C_2 is the maximum in all the samples. The micro-morphology of implanted samples are similar, there are many pits with diameters ranging from 1 to 3 μm on the implanted surfaces.展开更多
