Simultaneous Measurement of Transverse Load and Temperature Using a single Long—Period Fibre Grating Element

A single long-period fibre grating (LPFG)element written by focused high-fraequency CO2 laser pulses is demonstrated for simultaneous measurement of transverse load and temperature.Temperature and transverse load can be directly measured by detecting the resonant wavelength shift and the resonant peak amplitude change of the LPFG,respectively,as there are two special circular orientations along the fibre axis where the resonant peak amplitude change of the LPFG has a linear relationship with the load applied and is insensitive to the resonant wavelength shift.Such a sensor could solve the cross-sensitivity problem between transverse load and temperature due to the unique feature of this type of LPFG,i.e. the wavelength-load-sensitivity of the LPFG strongly depends on loading orientations due to the non-uniform distribution of the refractive index on the cross-section of the LPFG caused by the thermal shock effect and other effects of the high-frequency CO2 laser pulses exposure method used.     

POROSITY CALCULATION OFMIXTURES OF FIBROUS PARTICLES

The initial forming of fiber blend to high green density, i.e. the packing of fibrous particles, is important to the reinforcement of composite materials. It is very useful to develop a general predictive method for the optimum selection of particle mixtures for the property control of ceramic or composite products. This paper presents such a mathematical model developed on the basis of the similarity analysis between the spherical and non-spherical particle packings and assesses its applicability to the packing of fibrous particles with discrete and/or continuous length distributions. The results indicate that the model can predict this packing system well and hence provide an effective way to solve various packing problems in the composite materials processing.     

颗粒增强复合材料热应力分析的双层嵌套模型

建立了一个把增强颗粒球和基体空心球嵌入等效复合介质空腔中的“双层嵌套模型”,研究了颗粒增强材料自高温冷却下来时,不同相中热应力的分布特点。推出了热应力在弹性和弹塑性状态的各种表达式。研究表明,随着温度降低,增强体受到压应力,基体材料中存在的静水应力为拉应力。温度继续下降,将出现自增强颗粒与基体界面向外扩展的屈服区。随增强相体积分数增大,增强颗粒受到的压应力和基体中的静水拉应力减小,增强颗粒与基体界面屈服的起始温差增大,而基体材料全面屈服的温差却减小。     

Fabrication of Long-Period Fibre Gratings Using 800 nm Femtosecond Laser Pulses

Long-period fibre gratings inside standard single-mode optical communication fibres are successfully fabricated with infrared femtosecond laser pulses. The refractive index perturbations are well confined within the fibre core by choosing the proper laser focusing parameters and translation speed of the fibre during the direct laser writing process. With the self-focusing effect considered and at a constant average irradiation dose of 1.62 × 10^3 J/（cm^2μm）, the threshold intensity for fabricating long-period gratings with infrared femtosecond laser pulses is determined to be 5.13 × 10^13 W/cm2.

A NOVEL METHOD FOR FABRICATING COMPOSITE MOSAIC MEMBRANE WITH UNIQUE NF SELECTIVITY

A novel method of fabricating composite mosaic membranes was studied on the basis of interracial polymerization （IP） by coating a thin selective layer onto the surface of a micro-porous hollow-fiber membrane, in which, 2,5-diaminobenzene sulfonic acid was used as one monomer of the IP reaction, and a mixture of trimesoyl chloride （TMCI） and 4-（chloromethyl） benzoyl chloride as the other monomer. Through the IP reaction a thin selective layer with negatively charged groups could be first formed on the polyethersulfone （PES） support membrane. Then trimethylamine solution was introduced to modify the IP layer through a quaternization reaction. Thus the selective layer of this composite membrane contained both negatively charged and positively charged groups to perform the mosaic functionality. Characterization of the composite mosaic membranes was carried out through permeation experiments using different inorganic salts and dyes. The experimental results showed that the membranes could permeate both mono- and bi-valent inorganic salts, but reject larger organic molecules. Such a mosaic membrane is potentially useful for the separation of salts from water-soluble organics, especially in dye and textile industries.

Aligned ZnO Nanofibre Array Prepared by Vapour Transport in Air

An aligned zinc oxide nanofibre array has been fabricated by heating the mixture of ZnO, Ga2Oa, and graphite powders in atmosphere. The ZnO nanofibre showed a uniform size of about 150nm in diameter and 50μm in length. The nanofibres grew predominantly along one direction. Both x-ray diffraction (XRD) and Raman shift spectra show that the product is composed of ZnO with the typical hexagonal structure. The good crystallinity of these ZnO nanofibres has been verified by photoluminescence spectra with strong UV emission at 287nm and weak green band emission observed at room temperature. The component of the product was analysed by XRD,Raman shift spectrum, x-ray energy dispersion (EDX) and x-ray photoelectronic energy spectroscopy (XPS). The growth process and the characteristics can be interpreted by vapour-liquid-solid mechanism.     

Exact Controllability and Asymptotic Analysis for Shallow Shells

The authors consider the exact controllability of the vibrations of a thin shallow shell, of thickness 2εwith controls imposed on the lateral surface and at the top and bottom of the shell. Apart from proving the existence of exact controls, it is shown that the solutions of the three dimensional exact controllability problems converge, as the thickness of the shell goes to zero, to the solution of an exact controllability problem in two dimensions.
