Measurement of uniform and localized heat dissipation induced by cyclic loading

An experimental technique is presented for measuring the heat dissipation and localization during cyclic loading of materials. The temperature field is measured by a number of thermistors and an infrared camera, which scans the specimen surface continuously. The specimen is mounted inside an isothermal chamber. The measured whole-field temperature can be used for detection of damage propagation and localization. The resolution of the technique under various boundary conditions is discussed using a onedimensional model for the heat loss under steady-state conditions. Applications of the technique are demonstrated for specimens made of fiber-reinforced ceramic and polymer matrix composites (PMCs). A methodology is proposed for measuring changes in damping and stiffness properties of viscoelastic polymer matrix composites using the temperature rise of a cyclic loaded specimen. It is demonstrated that for a ceramic matrix composite, where interfacial frictional sliding gives rise to heat dissipation, the temperature resolution can be used for detection of stress-strain hysteresis with an accuracy better than that of the stress-strain data.     

相机位姿估计的加速正交迭代算法

面对需要实时计算的相机位姿估计问题,针对经典的广泛应用的正交迭代算法,提出了一种加速正交迭代算法。其关键思想是将每一次迭代过程规整化,从而提炼出每一次迭代的重复计算,若将此重复计算在迭代开始前提前计算,则可以大幅度的减少迭代过程中的计算量,使得每一次迭代的计算复杂度从O(n)降低为O(1)。因此,可以在更短的时间内迭代更多的次数,从而获得更高的精度。进行了对比实验,结果显示本加速算法计算精度更高,速度更快。并通过实验提出了选择稳健n点透视(RPn P)计算初值,再使用加速正交迭代算法进行迭代运算的方法,在控制点不多的情况下,是一种精度接近最大似然估计,计算速度最快的算法。

Environmental monitoring using a conventional photographic digital camera for multianalyte disposable optical sensors

The primary interest of this study concerns the use of an inexpensive photographic digital camera as the detection system, using its own flash as the source of light to present a new analytical procedure to measure disposable multianalyte optical sensors for potassium, magnesium, hardness and conventional pH test strips. The camera arrangement was designed in a fixed position over an optical board with controllable ambient conditions. After acquiring the digital image, the analytical information contained in each test zone is analyzed using theRGB colour space. Reflectance measurements were developed to study the colourimetric and spectral characteristics of the test zones. We obtained the following application ranges and precision in terms of relative standard deviation (RSD %): for potassium from 3.2 × 10⁻⁷ to 0.1 M with a precision between 3.3 and 4.0%, for magnesium from 2.7 × 10⁻⁶ to 1.5 M showing a precision between 4.7 and 7.8% and finally for hardness from 4.3 × 10⁻² to 200,000 mg L⁻¹ CaCO₃ and between 5.1 and 7.0%. Moreover, the analytical characteristics of several optical procedures were compared with the results presented here. The proposed method was statistically validated against a reference procedure using samples of water from different sources and beverages, indicating that there are no significant statistical differences at a 95% confidence level.

Visualization and analysis of wheel camber angle effect for slope traversability using an in-wheel camera

This paper visualizes and analyzes an effect of a wheel camber angle for the slope traversability in sandy terrain. An in-wheel camera developed in this work captures the wheel-soil contact phenomenon generated beneath the wheel through a transparent section of the wheel surface. The images taken by the camera are then analyzed using the particle image velocimetry. The soil flows with various wheel camber angles are analyzed with regard to the soil failure observed on the slope surface. The analysis reveals that the slope failure and soil accumulation in front of the wheel significantly affect the wheel forces and distributions of the wheel sinkage in the wheel width direction. Further, the side force of the wheel in traversing a slope decreases as the slip ratio increases because the shear stress in the slope downward direction decreases owing to the slope failure.     

基于数码相片和颜色空间转换的滨海土壤盐渍化定量估算

土壤盐渍化是土壤退化的重要原因之一,快速精确地监测土壤盐渍化对农业可持续发展和生态环境保护有积极作用。提出一种基于数码相片的滨海地区表层土壤盐分的定量估算方法,旨在复杂天气状况下快捷方便的获取土壤盐分信息。以江苏盐城沿海地区裸露地表土壤作为研究对象,在晴天和多云天气下全天时采样和拍照获取52个土壤样本和相片。土壤样品通过室内测试获取土壤电导率（EC）,pH值和土壤含水量等参数。利用RStudio软件对土壤相片进行处理,首先从相片中提取RGB三种颜色参数,再通过颜色空间转换关系计算另外5种颜色空间（HIS,CIEXYZ,CIELAB,CIELUV和CIELCH）,每个颜色空间有三个颜色参数,加上RGB颜色空间共有18个颜色参数,其中CIELAB,CIELUV和CIELCH中L参量表示的意义和数值相同,因此6个颜色空间共有16个颜色参数。土壤电导率与颜色参数相关分析结果表明,相片颜色的纯度和亮度与土壤电导率之间的相关系数较高,并达到了极显著水平,相片颜色的色相与土壤电导率之间的相关性较低,且未达到显著水平。随机抽取70%的样本数据并用随机森林方法对土壤盐分含量进行建模,采用留一法（LOOCV）进行交叉验证,再用余下30%的样本数据进行精度检验,重复100次以获取精度最高的模型。最终获取估算土壤盐分的随机森林模型,验证集数据的模型精度达到R2_val=0.75,RMSE_val=3.52,RPD_val=2.02。对颜色参数进行重要性分析发现,颜色纯度对模型的重要性最大,其次是颜色亮度,色相的贡献较小。综上,利用数码相机获取表层土壤相片,通过颜色空间转换得到的颜色参数为有效估算滨海土壤盐分含量提供一个新思路。该研究对近地表参数定量估算提供了新视角,将来结合无人机平台能够为精准农业和滨海生态环境的精准管理提供技术支持和有效手段。
