Conducting damage perception of planetary gear trains is of great significance for the safe operation of equipment. Existing methods for damage perception of planetary gear trains mainly rely on linear vibration analysis. However, these methods based on linear vibration signal analysis face challenges such as rich vibration sources, complex signal coupling and modulation mechanisms, significant influence of transmission paths, and difficulties in separating damage information. This paper proposes a method for separating instantaneous angular speed (IAS) signals for planetary gear fault diagnosis. Firstly, this method obtains encoder pulse signals through a built-in encoder. Based on this, it calculates the IAS signals using the Hilbert transform, and obtains the time-domain synchronous average signal of the IAS of the planetary gear through time-domain synchronous averaging technology, thus realizing the fault diagnosis of the planetary gear train. Experimental results validate the effectiveness of the calculated IAS signals, demonstrating that the time-domain synchronous averaging technology can highlight impact characteristics, effectively separate and extract fault impacts, greatly reduce the testing cost of experiments, and provide an effective tool for the fault diagnosis of planetary gear trains.展开更多

The oxygen evolution signal and photochemical energy storage varied negatively with the pretreatment_PFD (photon flux density), whereas the thermal signal varied positively with the pretreatment_PFD. Photochemical energy storage was reallocated to PSⅡ more than to PSⅠ, while the photochemical energy storage in PSⅠ was more stable than that in PSⅡ when subjected to light stress. The inhibitors streptomycin (SM), dithiothreitol (DTT) and sodium fluoride (NaF) could all affect the oxygen evolution signal. Clones B11 and B342 were more resistant to light stress than clone B346.展开更多

Compared with the traditional medical imaging mode, it has better imaging performance and has great development potential in the field of biological imaging. In traditional photoacoustic microscopy, a single laser pulse is generally used to irradiate the sample to produce photoacoustic signal. And sig-nal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is a very important indicator for photoacoustic im-aging. In order to obtain the image with high SNR, multiple acquisition or increasing laser pulse energy is usually adopted. The former will lead to slower imaging speed, and the latter will lead to photobleaching or pho-totoxicity. Here, we propose multi-pulse photoacoustic microscopy, the photoacoustic signals were stimulated sequentially using multiple laser pulses in each A line data acquisition. In order to verify the feasibility of this method, a multi-pulse photoacoustic imaging simulation platform is established using k-Wave toolbox. The performance of multi-pulse photo-acoustic imaging is verified through the three scanning modes of photoa-coustic microscopy A-scan, B-scan, and C-scan. The results indicate that the SNR is proportion to the number of laser pulses used, high SNR can be achieved by low-energy laser pulse. This work will help to expand the ap-plication of photoacoustic imaging. </div>展开更多

Differently from the acoustic impulses produced via thermal expansion, the polarity and the amplitude of acoustic impulse produced via liquid breakdown mechanism do not change with water temperature. This indirectly proves that the production of acoustic impulse is due to the expansion of the cavity itself which includes plasma. A semiempirical description of this phenomenon is given in this paper.展开更多
