A microfluidics-dispensing-printing strategy for Janus photonic crystal microspheres towards smart patterned displays

From the implementation point of view, the printable magnetic Janus colloidal photonic crystals (CPCs) microspheres are highly desirable. Herein, we developed a dispensing-printing strategy for magnetic Janus CPCs display via a microfluidics-automatic printing system. Monodisperse core/shell colloidal particles and magnetic Fe₃O₄ nanoparticles precursor serve as inks. Based on the equilibrium of three-phase interfacial tensions, Janus structure is successfully formed, followed by UV irradiation and self-assembly of colloid particle to generate magnetic Janus CPCs microspheres. Notably, this method shows distinct superiority with highly uniform Janus CPCs structure, where the TMPTA/Fe₃O₄ hemisphere is in the bottom side while CPCs hemisphere is in the top side. Thus, by using Janus CPCs microspheres with two different structural colors as pixel points, a pattern with red flower and green leaf is achieved. Moreover, 1D linear Janus CPCs pattern encapsulated by hydrogel is also fabricated. Both the color and the shape can be changed under the traction of magnets, showing great potentials in flexible smart displays. We believe this work not only offers a new feasible pathway to construct magnetic Janus CPCs patterns by a dispensing-printable fashion, but also provides new opportunities for flexible and smart displays.

Biocatalytic Feedback‐Controlled Non‐Newtonian Fluids

Non‐Newtonian fluids are ubiquitous in daily life and industrial applications. Herein, we report an intelligent fluidic system integrating two distinct non‐Newtonian rheological properties mediated by an autocatalytic enzyme reaction. Associative polyelectrolytes bearing a small amount of ionic and alkyl groups are engineered: by carefully balancing the charge density and the hydrophobic effect, the polymer solutions demonstrate a unique shear thickening property at low pH while shear thinning at high pH. The urea‐urease clock reaction is utilized to program a feedback‐induced pH change, leading to a strong upturn of the nonlinear viscoelastic properties. As long as the chemical fuel is supplied, two distinct non‐Newtonian states can be achieved with a tunable lifetime span. As a proof of concept, we demonstrate how the physical energy‐driven nonequilibrium properties can be manipulated by a chemical‐fueled process.     

梁柱简化模型在自立塔塔线体系动态响应中的适用性研究

对输电塔进行合理简化可以提高塔线体系动力学仿真的效率。本文给出自立塔梁柱简化模型的计算方法，并提出利用梁柱简化模型计算方法建立自立塔塔线体系整体模型，同时采用桁梁混合模型建立精细化塔线体系整体模型，对两种模型塔线体系静力特性及振型和固有频率等动力特性进行对比分析。以脱冰工况为例，采用生死单元技术将施加在输电线节点上的集中质量单元杀死来模拟脱冰，实现对塔线体系动力学响应的有限元模拟，研究塔线体系简化模型在动态响应中的适用性。结果表明，两种模型弯曲变形误差小，低阶的振型相同，固有频率值误差小，动力特性基本相同；脱冰工况下，自立塔节点位移和塔材内力时程曲线一致，在提高计算效率的情况下，能有效保证计算精度。     

双曲冷却塔塔筒水平地震响应分析

为明确冷却塔在水平地震下的内力环向分布特征及内在原因,同时探究不同地震波时程与规范反应谱所得内力差异的原因,以某大型双曲冷却塔为例,在动力特性分析的基础上,通过反应谱方法和时程方法的水平地震响应计算及对比分析,对上述两个问题进行了研究。研究表明:由于仅侧弯振型对水平地震有贡献,而塔筒的侧弯振型和实际响应均表现为整体侧倾并伴随微弱的截面“流动”变形,这也使塔筒各内力的环向分布分别呈现正弦、余弦分布特征;其整体侧倾可类比于悬臂杆结构,塔筒子午向轴力FY、子午向弯矩MY、剪力FXY和扭矩MXY的环向分布可借助悬臂杆侧倾时截面正应力和剪应力分布来解释;而截面“流动”变形则决定了环向轴力FX和环向弯矩MX的环向分布;整体侧移显著而截面变形极小也使FY和FXY的幅值在塔筒中下部明显大于FX;由于冷却塔第1阶侧弯振型在水平地震响应中往往起绝对主导作用,因此可先对所选地震波计算得到其反应谱,对比第1阶侧弯振型周期对应的水平地震影响系数α值,即可初步推断不同时程及规范反应谱方法所得结果的大小关系。

Heteroborospherene nanoclusters as high-performance nonlinear optical materials

Today, the design of new compounds with giant nonlinear optical responses is attracted to many researchers. Inspired by an interesting finding of a new class of heteroborospherenes which were formed by doping four carbon atoms in the B364- nanocluster (C4B32), we suggest the alkali metal-doped C4B32 (M@C4B32, M=Li, Na, and K) nanoclusters as high-performance nonlinear optical materials. Our results show that the alkali metal atoms have a considerable effect on the structural and electronic properties of the C4B32 nanocluster. We found that the doping alkali metal can remarkably decrease the HOMO-LUMO gap and significantly increases the first hyperpolarizability of the C4B32 nanocluster. Also, our results reveal that the first hyperpolarizability of the M@C4B32 nanoclusters can be progressively enhanced by increasing the atomic number of alkali metals. The effect of external electric fields on the nonlinear optical responses of the M@C4B32 has been systematically explored. We found that the first hyperpolarizability of the M@C4B32 compounds can be gradually increased by increasing the imposed external electric field from zero to the critical external electric field along the charge transfer direction (M→C4B32). Accordingly, this work presents an efficient strategy to improve the nonlinear optical responses of the heteroborospherenes.     

Generating Artificial Reverberation via Genetic Algorithms for Real-Time Applications

We introduce a Virtual Studio Technology (VST) 2 audio effect plugin that performs convolution reverb using synthetic Room Impulse Responses (RIRs) generated via a Genetic Algorithm (GA). The parameters of the plugin include some of those defined under the ISO 3382-1 standard (e.g., reverberation time, early decay time, and clarity), which are used to determine the fitness values of potential RIRs so that the user has some control over the shape of the resulting RIRs. In the GA, these RIRs are initially generated via a custom Gaussian noise method, and then evolve via truncation selection, random weighted average crossover, and mutation via Gaussian multiplication in order to produce RIRs that resemble real-world, recorded ones. Binaural Room Impulse Responses (BRIRs) can also be generated by assigning two different RIRs to the left and right stereo channels. With the proposed audio effect, new RIRs that represent virtual rooms, some of which may even be impossible to replicate in the physical world, can be generated and stored. Objective evaluation of the GA shows that contradictory combinations of parameter values will produce RIRs with low fitness. Additionally, through subjective evaluation, it was determined that RIRs generated by the GA were still perceptually distinguishable from similar real-world RIRs, but the perceptual differences were reduced when longer execution times were used for generating the RIRs or the unprocessed audio signals were comprised of only speech.
