仿生叠层构型石墨烯对铝基复合材料的纳米摩擦性能的影响

利用纳米压痕和纳米划痕试验表征了仿生叠层构型铝基石墨烯复合材料(Bio-inspired laminated graphene reinforced aluminum martrix composite, BAMC)与纯铝的力学性能和摩擦磨损性能. 鉴于摩擦力由黏着作用和犁沟作用两分量共同组成,对比探究了BAMC与纯铝在微观摩擦磨损过程中的弹塑性转变过程,分析了黏着作用与犁沟作用在摩擦力中的贡献度,揭示了其微观摩擦磨损机制. 结果表明:相较于纯铝,BAMC的纳米硬度提高了约24%,总摩擦系数(Friction coefficient)降低了约28%,黏着作用分量和犁沟作用分量分别降低了32%和16%. 换言之,复合材料中的异质界面产生异质变形诱导强化,进而增强了应变硬化,使仿生叠层石墨烯铝基复合材料的硬度得到明显提升,并且仿生叠层构型的石墨烯主要通过降低黏着作用来实现减磨. 从微纳米尺度揭示了BAMC的力学性能和摩擦磨损性能显著提升的机理,可为提升其摩擦磨损性能提供理论依据. 目前的工作通过纳米划痕和纳米压痕强调了叠层结构石墨烯的添加对块体复合材料的摩擦性能的影响,并表明仿生叠层构型铝基石墨烯是搭建仿生叠层结构的小尺寸理想增强体.      

Sensitivity enhancement of distributed polarization coupling detection in Hi-Bi fibers

The intensity and position of the coupling points in high birefringence(Hi-Bi)fibers can be detected effectively using distributed polarization coupling(DPC)detection.The detection sensitivity can decrease due to mechanical vibration disturbance and environment noise.Thus,a method based on empirical mode decomposition is proposed to detect weak mode coupling points.The simulation and experimental results illustrate that the proposed method can suppress the noise effectively and improve sensitivity significantly.The method can identify coupling points as weak as-60 dB embedded in noise automatically and effectively.The algorithm is applicable for DPC,and the experimental sensitivity is improved by 10 dB.
