Damage monitor and life prediction of carbon fiber-reinforced ceramic-matrix composites at room and elevated temperatures using hysteresis dissipated energy-based damage parameter

In this paper, the damage monitor and life prediction of carbon fiber-reinforced ceramic-matrix composites (C/SiC CMCs) have been investigated using the hysteresis dissipated energy-based damage parameter. The evolution of the interface shear stress, hysteresis dissipated energy, hysteresis dissipated energy-based damage parameter and the broken fibers fraction vs. cycle number, the fatigue life S?N curves of unidirectional, cross-ply and 2.5D C/SiC composites at room temperature and 800 °C in air atmosphere have been analyzed. For unidirectional C/SiC, the hysteresis dissipated energy and hysteresis dissipated energy-based damage parameter first increase and then decrease with cycle number, and the fatigue limit stress decreases from 88% tensile strength at room temperature to 20% of the tensile strength at 800 °C in air atmosphere; for cross-ply C/SiC, the hysteresis dissipated energy and hysteresis dissipated energy-based damage parameter decrease with increasing applied cycles, and the fatigue limit stress decreases from 85% tensile strength at room temperature to 22% tensile strength at 800 °C in air; and for 2.5D C/SiC, the hysteresis dissipated energy and hysteresis dissipated energy-based damage parameter increases with cycle number, and the fatigue limit stress decreases from 70% tensile strength at room temperature to 25% tensile strength at 800 °C in air.     

On the improvement of signal repeatability in laser-induced air plasmas

The relatively low repeatability of laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) severely hinders its wide commercialization. In the present work, we investigate the optimization of LIBS system for repeatability improvement for both signal generation (plasma evolution) and signal collection. Timeintegrated spectra and images were obtained under different laser energies and focal lengths to investigate the optimum configuration for stable plasmas and repeatable signals. Using our experimental setup, the optimum conditions were found to be a laser energy of 250 mJ and a focus length of 100 mm. A stable and homogeneous plasma with the largest hot core area in the optimum condition yielded the most stable LIBS signal. Time-resolved images showed that the rebounding processes through the air plasma evolution caused the relative standard deviation (RSD) to increase with laser energies of > 250 mJ. In addition, the emission collection was improved by using a concave spherical mirror. The line intensities doubled as their RSDs decreased by approximately 25%. When the signal generation and collection were optimized simultaneously, the pulse-to-pulse RSDs were reduced to approximately 3% for O(I), N(I), and H(I) lines, which are better than the RSDs reported for solid samples and showed great potential for LIBS quantitative analysis by gasifying the solid or liquid samples.     

A quantum search algorithm based on partial adiabatic evolution

This paper presents and implements a specified partial adiabatic search algorithm on a quantum circuit. It studies the minimum energy gap between the first excited state and the ground state of the system Hamiltonian and it finds that,in the case of M = 1,the algorithm has the same performance as the local adiabatic algorithm. However,the algorithm evolves globally only within a small interval,which implies that it keeps the advantages of global adiabatic algorithms without losing the speedup of the local adiabatic search algorithm.     

大气压直流激励空气等离子体羽发光的时空演化

在针-针电极结构的放电装置中以环境空气作为工作气体,大气压下产生了刷形等离子体羽。尽管使用的是直流电源,但放电发光呈现出脉冲性质,发光脉冲频率几乎不受气体流速的影响,但与电源输出功率成正相关关系。等离子体羽的长度与气体流速或者电源功率成正相关关系。通道出口附近,777.4 nm的氧原子谱线强度分布是非对称的,阴极附近处的谱线强度高于阳极附近处的谱线强度。远离通道出口位置,谱线强度逐渐趋于轴对称分布。电学特性和10 μs曝光高速影像结果表明,空气等离子体羽实际上是由拱形放电丝在远离通道出口的运动过程中叠加而成,同时放电从弧光放电丝向均匀辉光放电转化。     

Calibration of a stochastic health evolution model using NHIS data

This paper presents and calibrates an individual’s stochastic health evolution model. In this health evolution model, the uncertainty of health incidents is described by a stochastic process with a finite number of possible outcomes. We construct a comprehensive health status index (HSI) to describe an individual’s health status, as well as a health risk factor system (RFS) to classify individuals into different risk groups. Based on the maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) method and the method of nonlinear least squares fitting, model calibration is formulated in terms of two mixed-integer nonlinear optimization problems. Using the National Health Interview Survey (NHIS) data, the model is calibrated for specific risk groups. Longitudinal data from the Health and Retirement Study (HRS) is used to validate the calibrated model, which displays good validation properties. The end goal of this paper is to provide a model and methodology, whose output can serve as a crucial component of decision support for strategic planning of health related financing and risk management.     

A simulation study of microstructure evolution during solidification process of liquid metal Ni

A molecular dynamics simulation study has been performed for the microstructure evolution in a liquid metal Ni system during crystallization process at two cooling rates by adopting the embedded atom method (EAM) model potential. The bond-type index method of Honeycutt--Andersen (HA) and a new cluster-type index method (CTIM-2) have been used to detect and analyse the microstructures in this system. It is demonstrated that the cooling rate plays a critical role in the microstructure evolution: below the crystallization temperature $T_{\rm c}$, the effects of cooling rate are very remarkable and can be fully displayed. At different cooling rates of $2.0\times10^{13}$\,K\,$\cdot$\,s$^{-1}$ and $1.0\times10^{12}$\,K\,$\cdot$\,s$^{-1}$, two different kinds of crystal structures are obtained in the system. The first one is the coexistence of the hcp (expressed by (12 0 0 0 6 6) in CTIM-2) and the fcc (12 0 0 0 12 0) basic clusters consisting of 1421 and 1422 bond-types, and the hcp basic cluster becomes the dominant one with decreasing temperature, the second one is mainly the fcc (12 0 0 0 12 0) basic clusters consisting of 1421 bond-type, and their crystallization temperatures $T_{\rm c}$ would be 1073 and 1173\,K, respectively.     

考虑蠕虫传播风险的信任度更新模型

基于网络节点信任度的评估机制是一种有效防御蠕虫传播的方法。针对现有节点信任度计算模型对蠕虫攻击行为不敏感,对恶意节点识别不全面的问题,本文提出了一种考虑蠕虫传播风险的信任度更新模型。通过蠕虫传播模型中STIDR状态定义,对节点信任度和传播概率的关系进行了定量刻画;建立了直接风险、间接风险和传播性风险三种条件下的信任度更新模型。仿真结果表明,与基本信任模型相比,本文考虑蠕虫传播风险的信任度更新模型使网络中感染状态节点的信任度更低,感染状态节点数目更少,隔离状态节点数目更多,表明信任度的更新使节点对感染状态节点的识别更加有效,在一定程度上达到了抵御蠕虫攻击,抑制蠕虫在网络中传播的目的。
