Searching high gray scale FPD scanning matrix based on PSO

With the increase of gray scale and flat panel display （FPD） size, subspace bitwise scanning strategy can be replaced traditional scanning method to cut down frame frequency. However, the direct searching strategy （DSS） becomes unfeasible to obtain corresponding high gray scale scanning matrix. Thus, particle swarm optimization （PSO） is introduced to accelerate searching for high gray scale weights scanning matrix （WSM） with its parallelism and global optimization feature. Finally a WSM of 256 gray scales is found out successfully with Matlab, which both gray linearity and scanning efficiency are satisfied.

Optimal strategy of searching FPD weights scanning matrix using GA-PSO

This paper discusses a kind of optimal method used for searching flat panel display （FPD） scanning matrix. The method adopts bionic algorithm： genetic algorithm （GA） and particle swarm optimization （PSO） algorithm. The method using single GA is more time-consuming, and the search efficiency is low in later evolution; the PSO algorithm is easily falling into the local optimal solution and appears the premature convergent phenomenon. Hence, a hybrid approach of GAPSO is found to optimize the search for high grayscale weights scanning matrix. Finally in the acceptable time, it finds a weight scanning matrix （WSM） of 256 gray scales with Matlab, whose scanning efficiency reaches 94.73% and the linearity is very good.

Reaction Processes of the Titanium Matrix Composites Fabricated from Ti-Al-B2O3 System

Titanium matrix composites reinforced with a-Al2O3 and TiB2 particles were fabricated by in situ synthesis from a Ti-Al-B2O3 system. The reaction processes and microstructure were analyzed by using differential scanning calorimetry（DSC）, scanning electron microscopy（SEM） and X-ray diffraction（XRD）. The results showed that the reactions in the Ti-Al-B2O3 system can occur spontaneously and consist of three steps： 1） 15 Al ＋ 7B2O3 → 7α-Al2O3 ＋ AlB12 ＋ 2B; 2） 14 B ＋ 2Al → AlB12 ＋ AlB2 and 3） 7Ti ＋ AlB（12） ＋ AlB2 → 7TiB2 ＋ 2Al. The final reinforcements were composed of α-Al2O3 and TiB2 particles, which were uniformly distributed in the titanium matrix.

Shape Memory Effect,Thermal Expansion and Damping Property of Friction Stir Processed NiTip/Al Composite

NiTi particles reinforced aluminum （NiTip/Al） composite was prepared via friction stir processing, elimi- nating interfacial reaction and/or elemental diffusion. The NiTip in the composite maintained the intrinsic characteristic of a reversible thermoelastic phase transformation even after heat-treatment. The shape memory characteristic of the NiTip decreased the coefficient of thermal expansion of the Al matrix, and an apparent two-way shape memory effect was observed in the composite. The composite owned a good combination of adjustable damping and thermal physical properties.
