Stochastic exponential synchronization for delayed neural networks with semi-Markovian switchings: Saturated heterogeneous sampling communication

By implementing heterogeneous sampling communication mechanism, this article addresses the exponential synchronization issue of drive–response chaotic neural networks (CNNs) with interval time-varying delays by simultaneously taking into account the semi-Markovian switchings and saturating actuators. More specifically, a semi-Markovian jumping model whose transition rates (TRs) are not constant but depends on the sojourn time (ST) is introduced to characterize the stochastic changing among the interaction of CNNs, which makes the NNs model under consideration more suitable for some actual circumstances. More particularly, we assume that the sampling intervals are heterogeneous and time-varying, which may be more practical in real-life applications than homogeneous sampling policy. Additionally, by introducing some new terms, one novel time-dependent Lyapunov–Krasovskii function (LKF) is ingeniously constructed, which can fully capture the characteristic information of heterogeneous sampling pattern. Benefitting from the introduced relaxed free-weighting matrices (FWM) and resorting to the formed LKF, some sampling-interval-dependent sufficient conditions for controller design of the resulting semi-MJNNs error system are established and expressed by linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). These LMIs-based constraints can be effectively checked by utilizing the available software packages. Therein, the developed synchronization criteria dependent on both the lower and upper bounds of sampling periods, and the available information about the actual sampling pattern is fully considered. Ultimately, two numerical examples are provided to demonstrate the feasibility and practicability of our theoretical findings.     

Large area mapping of non-metallic inclusions in stainless steel by an automated system based on laser ablation

Large area compositional mapping (>6 mm²) using a fast and automated system based on laser-induced plasma spectrometry is presented. The second harmonic of a flat top Nd:YAG laser beam was used to generate a microline plasma on the sample surface. The emitted light from the microline plasma was imaged onto the entrance slit of an imaging spectrograph and was detected by an intensified charge-coupled device to generate a spatially and spectrally resolved data set. Individual LIPS images, each measuring roughly 2500×2500 μm with spatial resolution of 50 μm between adjacent craters and 4.8 μm along the microline are presented. These large area maps were acquired in less than 1 min. Steel samples containing MnS and TiN inclusions were chosen as the most adequate for this study. The results are presented for the characterization of inclusionary material in stainless steel products in terms of morphology, distribution and abundance.     

一类线性变换半群的格林关系

Let V be a linear space over a field F with finite dimension, L（V） the semigroup, under composition, of all linear transformations from V into itself. Suppose that V = V1 V2 ... Vm is a direct sum decomposition of V, where V1,V2,..., Vm are subspaces of V with the same dimension. A linear transformation f ∈ L（V） is said to be sum-preserving, if for each i （1 ≤ i ≤ m）, there exists some j （1 ≤ j ≤ m） such that f（Vi） Vj. It is easy to verify that all sum-preserving linear transformations form a subsemigroup of L（V） which is denoted by L （V）. In this paper, we first describe Green＇s relations on the semigroup L （V）. Then we consider the regularity of elements and give a condition for an element in L （V） to be regular. Finally, Green＇s equivalences for regular elements are also characterized.     

Synthesis and characterization of nano-peanuts of lead(II) coordination polymer [Pb(qcnh)(NO3)2]n with ultrasonic assistance: A new precursor for the preparation of pure-phase nano-sized PbO

A sonochemical method was used to synthesize nano-peanuts of a new lead(II) coordination 1D polymer, [Pb(qcnh)(NO₃)₂]_n (1), where qcnh = 2-quinolincarbaldehyde nicotinohydrazide. The compound was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), and single crystal X-ray analysis. The X-ray structure revealed that the Pb(II) atom is coordinated by one oxygen and three nitrogen atoms from two qcnh ligands and five oxygen atoms from three nitrate ligands in an 8 + 1 fashion with a PbN₃O₆ donor set. One of the PdN distances in the vicinity of the central atom is a bit longer (Pb1N1 = 2.939(4) Å), which shows the effect of the 6s² lone electron pair localized within the valence shell of the lead(II) atom. PbO nanoparticles were obtained by thermolysis of 1 at 180 °C with oleic acid as a surfactant. The average diameter of the nanoparticles was estimated by XRD to be 28 nm. The morphology and size of the prepared PbO nanoparticles were further studied using SEM.

Preparation and properties of nickel site doped material Ni1-yXyCo2O4 as supercapacitor materials by in-situ growth method

Although NiCo₂O₄ has been widely applied in supercapacitors, its actual capacity has been limited by the low conductivity and reactivity. Due to the relationship between the performance of the spinel-structured NiCo₂O₄ electrode material and its microstructure, in this paper, in order to modify the nanostructure of NiCo₂O₄ to improve its electrochemical performance, hydrothermal method is adopted to synthesize Ni_0.98X_0.02Co₂O₄(X = Fe, Cu, Mg, V, Ag, Mn, Mo, Ti) grown on nickel foam. After the synthesis, the physical morphology of the selected Ni_0.98Mg_0.02Co₂O₄ and Ni_0.98Mn_0.02Co₂O₄ are tested and analyzed by XRD, SEM, XPS and FT-IR. According to the characterization results, it can be found that different kinds of metals are doped in the nickel site of NiCo₂O₄, and the microscopic morphology of materials is different. It can be seen from the SEM figure that Ni_0.98Mg_0.02Co₂O₄ is a small nano-scale particle, while Ni_0.98Mn_0.02Co₂O₄ presents rod-like braided structure, and doping at the nickel site does not affect the main structure of the material. It can be seen from EDS data that the atomic ratio and weight ratio of nickel and cobalt elements are consistent with the molecular formula. The XPS spectra of the corresponding elements showed that Ni, Co and O elements were corresponding to NiCo₂O₄ materials. In conclusion, the result of physical morphology characterization analysis shows that the material is still in standard NiCo₂O₄ spinel structure.
