Free vibration characteristics of sectioned unidirectional/bidirectional functionally graded material cantilever beams based on finite element analysis

Advancements in manufacturing technology, including the rapid development of additive manufacturing (AM), allow the fabrication of complex functionally graded material (FGM) sectioned beams. Portions of these beams may be made from different materials with possibly different gradients of material properties. The present work proposes models to investigate the free vibration of FGM sectioned beams based on onedimensional (1D) finite element analysis. For this purpose, a sample beam is divided into discrete elements, and the total energy stored in each element during vibration is computed by considering either the Timoshenko or Euler-Bernoulli beam theory. Then, Hamilton's principle is used to derive the equations of motion for the beam. The effects of material properties and dimensions of FGM sections on the beam's natural frequencies and their corresponding mode shapes are then investigated based on a dynamic Timoshenko model (TM). The presented model is validated by comparison with three-dimensional (3D) finite element simulations of the first three mode shapes of the beam.     

Rational Molecular Design of Multifunctional Blue-Emitting Materials Based on Phenanthroimidazole Derivatives.

High-performance deep-blue emitters with external quantum efficiencies (EQEs) exceeding 5 % are still scarce in organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). In this work, by introducing a [1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a] pyridine (TP) unit at the N1 position of phenanthroimidazole (PI), two luminescent materials, PTPTPA and PTPTPA , were obtained. Systematic photophysical analysis showed that the TP block is suitable for constructing hybridized local and charge-transfer (HLCT) emitters. Its moderate electron-withdrawing ability and rigid planar structure can enhance the CT component while ensuring color purity. In addition, compared with PTPTPA , the additional phenyl ring of PTPBPTA not only increased the oscillator strength, but also decreased the Stokes shift. TDDFT calculations pointed out facile reverse intersystem crossing processes in PTPTPA from high-lying triplet states to the singlet excited state. A nondoped device based on PTPTPA as emitter showed impressive performance with EQE_max of 7.11 % and CIE coordinates of (0.15, 0.09). At the same time, it was also an efficient host for yellow and red phosphorescent OLEDs. By doping yellow (PPYBA) and red (BTPG) phosphorescent dyes into PTPTPA , a white OLED with a high EQE of 23.85 % was achieved. The successful design of PTPTPA not only provided an optimization choice for OLED emitters, but also demonstrated the empirical rules for the design of multifunctional deep-blue emitters.     

乙烷氧化脱氢制乙烯CeO2-NiO/A2O3催化剂上氧物种的研究

在镍基催化剂上进行了乙烷氧化脱氢制乙烯的研究.结果表明,浸渍法制备的催化剂性能最佳.以浸渍法引入CeO2后,催化剂的低温反应活性显著提高.采用O2-TPD-MS、TPR和XPS等表征技术对催化剂进行了表征,结果显示:在ODE反应中,在低温下起主导作用的是"非化学计量氧"(O2-、O-和O22-);在高温下起主导作用的是晶格氧;CeO2的添加减弱了NiO与载体-γAl2O3间的强相互作用,提高了镍物种在载体上的分散度,高分散于催化剂表面的微晶NiO的量明显增加,此物种有利于催化剂的低温活性;影响了催化剂表面氧物种的分布,表面的晶格氧的相对浓度提高了,非化学计量氧的相对浓度降低了.     

Speciation study of trace elements by HPLC Part III. The effect of alcohols on the retention behaviour of Cr(III, VI)-APDC co-ordination complexes

Summary Reported here is the effect of alcohol modifiers on the retention behaviour of Cr(III, VI)-APDC complexes on both of Shimadzu CLC-C₈ and Shimadzu CLC-ODS columns. The results show that ln k' of the complexes depend mainly on the chromatographic column feature and the surface tension of the mobile phase, while the type of alcohols shows less contribution.Part I: Chem.

含类立方烷银(Ⅰ)簇的光致蓝光配位聚合物的原位溶剂热合成

A blue photoluminescent coordination polymer [Ag₄Cl₄(dppe)₂]_n has been prepared solvothermally and characterized structurally. The crystal structure was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The crystal is of tetragonal, space group I4₁/a, a=b=1.936 03(6) nm, c=1.465 63(8) nm, V=5.493 5(4) nm³, Z=4, D_calcd=1.657 Mg·m^-3, μ=1.749 mm^-1. Reflections collected: 17 147, independent reflections: 3 247, R_int=0.021 1. Final R indices [I> 2σ(I)]: R₁=0.044 8, wR₂=0.111 0. The structure of [Ag₄Cl₄(dppe)₂]_n is a 3D-diamond highly symmetrical polymeric network containing Ag₄Cl₄ cubane-like clusters connected by 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane (dppe). Each Ag₄Cl₄ cluster is composed of four silver and four chlorine atoms situated at alternate vertexes of a highly distorted cube with each silver atom being further coordinated to one phosphorus atom from a dppe ligand. The stripping of chloride ions from CHCl₃ provides the source for chlorine in the formation of Ag(Ⅰ) clusters. In addition, the emission spectrum of the complex 1 in solid state has been studied.

Fuzzy ranking of human development: A proposal

In this paper we propose to measure human development as a fuzzy concept. We stress that there exists a great deal of vagueness in quantifying a country’s level of human development; one such source of vagueness is the weighting scheme embedded in the well-publicized UNDP’s Human Development Index (HDI). We propose to evaluate the resulting fuzziness in human development ranking with a truth value function. A truth value is simply a function of the probability that a randomly drawn bundle of weights will rank one country to have a higher HDI than another country. We derive simple and easily computable formulae for calculating the truth value. The method derived is equally applicable to fuzzy rankings with other composite indices.     

Synthesis and characterization of porous WO3–SnO2 nanomaterials: An infrared study of adsorbed pyridine and dimethyl methylphosphonate

High surface area porous W/Sn oxide nanomaterials were prepared via water/oil based (W/O) emulsion. Tungstic acid solution was generated by cation exchange of sodium tungstate in acidic Dowex resin. The acid was then mixed with a clear homogeneous aqueous N-cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) solution followed by a slow addition of 0.2 M SnCl₄ solution. The mixture was stirred for 24 h and then subjected to slow calcination at 500 °C. The prepared materials were characterized using SEM-EDX, BET surface area, and sorption of nitrogen and water. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) was used to characterize the surface acidic properties using pyridine vapor as a probe. The materials were then tested toward the Dimethyl methylphosphonate (DMMP) adsorption at various temperatures using infrared spectroscopy. At elevated temperatures, the desorption of DMMP from WO₃ and SnO₂ surfaces results in forming methyl phosphonate that strongly bounds on the metal oxide surfaces. In contrast, the FTIR spectra showed that the adsorbed dimethyl methylphosphonate (DMMP) on the mixed W/Sn oxide powders can be molecularly desorbed without any decomposition.     

有限元模型修正研究进展:从线性到非线性

有限元分析在实际工程中得到了广泛应用.然而有限元模型由于受到网格划分、边界条件和材料物理参数不确定性等的影响,与真实结构有差异. 因此须通过试验数据加以修正,使其尽可能接近实际结构,以保证之后的结构动力模拟分析和监测等具有实际意义. 经过多年发展,有限元模型修正技术已经能够成功应用于一些实际工程,但现代工程技术的进步对有限元模型修正提出了更高要求,修正后的有限元模型不仅要有较高的精确度,还需要为后续应用给出具有指导意义的置信度.而现有的有限元模型修正、确认方法多基于结构线性的假设,而未能考虑实际结构中广泛存在的非线性.因此本文以土木工程结构模型修正的一些研究成果为例,通过对传统有限元模型修正的发展历程进行全面回顾;总结评述传统有限元修正技术的主要方法,以及包括有限元模型确认在内的最新研究进展;重点探讨有限元模型修正技术向非线性发展的技术路线和目前主要研究成果,展望其未来发展方向, 并提出值得研究的问题.
