A Novel Method for Pattern Recognition of GIS Partial Discharge via Multi-Information Ensemble Learning

Partial discharge (PD) is the main feature that effectively reflects the internal insulation defects of gas-insulated switchgear (GIS). It is of great significance to diagnose the types of insulation faults by recognizing PD to ensure the normal operation of GIS. However, the traditional diagnosis method based on single feature information analysis has a low recognition accuracy of PD, and there are great differences in the diagnosis effect of various insulation defects. To make the most of the rich insulation state information contained in PD, we propose a novel multi-information ensemble learning for PD pattern recognition. First, the ultra-high frequency and ultrasonic data of PD under four typical defects of GIS are obtained through experiment. Then the deep residual convolution neural network is used to automatically extract discriminative features. Finally, multi-information ensemble learning is used to classify PD types at the decision level, which can complement the shortcomings of the independent recognition of the two types of feature information and has higher accuracy and reliability. Experiments show that the accuracy of the proposed method can reach 97.500%, which greatly improves the diagnosis accuracy of various insulation defects.     

The stability analysis of rolling motion of hypersonic vehicles and its validations

The stability of the rolling motion of near space hypersonic vehicles with rudder control is studied using method of qualitative analysis of nonlinear differential equations, and the stability criteria of the deflected rolling motions are improved. The outcomes can serve as the basis for further study regarding the influence of pitching and lateral motion on the stability of rolling motion. To validate the theoretical results, numerical simulations were done for the rolling motion of two hypersonic vehicles with typical configurations. Also, wind tunnel experiments for four aircraft models with typical configurations have been done. The results show that: 1) there exist two dynamic patterns of the rolling motion under statically stable condition. The first one is point attractor, for which the motion of aircraft returns to the original state. The second is periodic attractor, for which the aircraft rolls periodically. 2) Under statically unstable condition, there exist three dynamic patterns of rolling motion, namely, the point attractor, periodic attractor around deflected state of rolling motion, and double periodic attractors or chaotic attractors.     

Stable edge dislocations in finite crystals

Dislocations have been considered as mechanically unstable defects in bulk crystals, ignoring the Peierls oscillations. Eshelby [J. Appl. Phys. 24 (1953) p.176] had showed that a screw dislocation can be stable in a thin cylinder. In the current work, considering Eshelby's example of an edge dislocation in a single crystalline plate, we show that an edge dislocation can be stable in a finite crystal. Using specific examples, we also show that the position of stability of an edge dislocation can be off-centre. This shift in the stability from the centre marks the transition from a stable dislocation to an unstable one. The above-mentioned tasks are achieved by simulating edge dislocations using the finite element method.

Simultaneous determination of morniflumate and its major active metabolite,niflumic acid,in human plasma by high‐performance liquid chromatography in stability and pharmacokinetic studies

A rapid, sensitive and stable high‐performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method was developed and validated for the simultaneous determination of morniflumate and its major active metabolite, niflumic acid, in human plasma. HPLC analysis was carried out using a 5 µm particle size, C₁₈‐bonded silica column with a mixture of acetonitrile and 0.005 m potassium phosphate monobasic in water (60:40, v/v) as the mobile phase and UV detection at 287 nm. The method involved the treatment with 50 μL of 0.4 m hydrochloric acid for the stability of morniflumate, extraction with diethylether and evaporation to dryness under a nitrogen stream. The lower limit of quantitation for morniflumate and niflumic acid was 50 and 500 ng/mL, respectively. The calibration curves for morniflumate and niflumic acid were linear over the concentration range of 50–20,000 ng/mL and 500–50,000 ng/mL, respectively, with correlation coefficients greater than 0.9995 and inter‐ or intra‐batch coefficients of variation not exceeding 13.79%. The variability (percentage difference) of incurred sample re‐analysis did not exceed 11.72% and all of the repeat samples fell within 20% of the mean value. This assay procedure was applied successfully to an examination of the pharmacokinetics of morniflumate and its metabolite, niflumic acid, in human subjects.

Characterization and Bioavailability of Vitamin C Nanoliposomes Prepared by Film Evaporation-Dynamic High Pressure Microfluidization

Vitamin C nanoliposomes were prepared by combining a conventional method (film evaporation) with dynamic high pressure microfluidization. Their physicochemical characterizations (antioxidant activity, particle size, entrapment efficiency, morphology, in vitro drug release, and storage stability) and skin permeation behavior were investigated. The results showed that vitamin C nanoliposomes, having equivalent DPPH (2, 2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) free radical scavenging capacity of pure vitamin C solution without loss of their biological activity, exhibited better storage stability at 37°C for 24 hours and at 4°C for 60 days, a more excellent sustained drug release as well as higher skin penetration rate than vitamin C liposomes.     

Effect of long-period stacking ordered phase on thermal stability of refined grains in Mg-RE-based alloys

The refined grains in both as-cast Mg-10Y-1Zn-2Zr (WZ101?K, wt.%) and Mg-10Y-1Al (WA101, wt.%) alloys have been found to have superior thermal stability after solution treatment. Plate-shaped, but different polytypes of long-period stacking ordered (LPSO) phases distributed along grain boundaries are considered as the predominant inhibitors of grain growth. Based on the plate-shaped features of the LPSO phases, a modified Zener’s model is established and the predicted limiting grain sizes are in a good agreement with the experimental results. Therefore, this model has strong potential for designing advanced Mg-RE-based alloys with high strength and high creep resistance at high temperatures.     

SPECTROPHOTOMETRIC STUDY OF COMPLEX FORMATION BETWEEN SOME ALKALI AND ALKALINE EARTH CATIONS AND SEVERAL CONVENTIONAL (N,N), (N,O) AND (O,O) LIGANDS IN 95% ETHANOL

Abstract

The complexation of Li⁺, Na⁺, Mg²⁺ and Ca²⁺ with 1,10-phenanthroline, 2,2′-bipyridine, 1,2-phenylenediamine, 2-aminopyridine, 8-hydroxyquinoline, catechol and ethylene glycol was studied in 95% ethanol by means of a competitive spectrophotometric method using murexide as indicator. Formation constants of 1:1 conplexes were determined. In the case of all ligands used, the stability of the complexes was found to vary in the order Mg²⁺ > Ca²⁺ > Li⁺ > Na⁺. It was found that the structure influences the formation and stability of resulting complexes. Effects of various parameters on complexation are discussed.     

Anion-controlled geometrically different Cu(II) ion-based coordination polymers and green synthetic route for copper nanoparticles: a combined experimental and computational insight

Abstract

The Cu(II) ion-based polymeric complexes [Cu(2,2′-bpy).(N₃)₂]_n (I), [Cu₂(2,2′-bpy)₂.(N₃)₄]_n (II), and monomeric complex [Cu(2,2′-bpy).(NO₃)₂].5H₂O (III) have been synthesized with rigid (–N₃) and aromatic (2,2′-bpy = 2,2′-bipyridyl) ligand. The rigid azide group is responsible for the formation of 1-D extended structures in complexes I and II where as in the case of complex III, a monomeric complex is formed due to lack of a bridging group like –N₃, resulting in limitation in dimensionality. The thermal stability of the 1-D complexes is comparatively higher than monomeric complex III. Hirshfeld surface analysis has also been applied to investigate other weak interactions and compared with the results from single-crystal X-ray data. Due to the presence of paramagnetic metal centers and long metal···metal distances in complexes I and II and presence of lattice water molecules in complex III, decrease in luminescence intensities have been observed. To attain further insights into the aforementioned interesting species, some chemical concepts such as highest occupied molecular orbital–lowest unoccupied molecular orbital gap, electronic chemical potential, chemical hardness, and electrophilicity index, identified as a derivative of electronic energy, have also been emphasized employing the quantum chemical calculations in the framework of the density functional theory method using the M06-2X/ 6-31G** level of study. Further, these complexes have been used to synthesize copper nanoparticles by applying a green synthetic route.     

Absence of absolutely continuous spectrum of Floquet operators

The spectrum of the Floquet operator associated with time-periodic perturbations of discrete Hamiltonians is considered. If the gap between successive eigenvalues _j of the unperturbed Hamiltonian grows as _j - _j-1 j and the multiplicity of _j grows asj with >0 asj tends to infinity, then the corresponding Floquet operator possesses no absolutely continuous spectrum provided the perturbation is smooth enough.
