Performance and Microstructure of Ultra Low Ion Permeability Cementitious Materials

Microstructure and macro performance of Ultra Low Ion Permeability Cementitious Materials (ULIPCM) were investigated by Micro hardness, MIP and SEM EDXA. It was shown that the compressive strength of ULIPCM was more than 80 MPa, flexural strength was more than 11.0 MPa, and elastic modulus was in the range of 38.0 to 42.0 GPa at the age of 28 days; chloride diffusion coefficient was lower than 0.8×10－13m2·s－1, conductive charge for 6 hours was lower than 300 coulombs; sulfate attack resistance was good; shrinkage at the age of 28 days was lower than 400×10－6. Compared with ordinary concrete with which thickness of interfacial transition zone is 60 to 100 μm, the thickness of interfacial transition zone of ULIPCM was lower than 30 μm. Penetration paths of corrosive medium were effectively interrupted in ULIPCM. And pore structure parameters, such as porosity and the most probable pore radius of ULIPCM, were also obviously optimized in ULIPCM. Besides, few CH crystals were in the ULIPCM aggregate and the interfacial transition zone of ULIPCM. And the orientation of CH crystals was poor.     

Dynamic characteristic analysis of an all terrain vehicle body

The body is a key part of all terrain vehicles (ATV). Its dynamic characteristics greatly effect the vibration of the ATV assembly. Simulation and experimental methods are combined to analyze ATV body vibration characteristics. A computer aided design(CAD) model is built using UG4.0. A finite element method(FEM) model of an ATV body and a body with an engine are created using Hypermesh. The FEM model is imported to Msc.Nastran to calculate the free mode. The simulation model is verified by the experimental modal result. The results indicate that after the frame with engine, the first bending mode increases due to the engine increasing the body stiffness, while the first torsion mode decreases due to the engine mass. The effects on the dynamic response of the road and engine excitation are analyzed respectively. Vibration characteristic improvement methods and suggestions regarding the body are provided.     

Robust adaptive control for nonlinear chaotic systems

Tracking control of a nonlinear uncertain Chua's chaotic system is studied. With coordinate transform, Chua's chaotic system is transformed to a general form of a strict feedback control system. Combining the backstepping method with robust control technology, an adaptive parameter control law for a robust output feedback control scheme is developed for output tracking of nonlinear unknown systems. It is shown that the derived robust adaptive controller based on Lyapunov stability theory can guarantee global uniformly bounded ultimate property for all states of the closed loop system, and lead to tracking error decreasing at exponential speed. The simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed approach.     

Waste FR 4 printed circuit board recycling technology based on supercritical fluid carbon dioxide

To create a model for recycling technology, a waste FR 4 printed circuit board (PCB) recycling process employing supercritical fluid CO2 (SCF CO2) is studied using central composite design. The influence of temperature and treatment time on the PCB delamination ratio, latitudinal tensile strength of glass fiber sheets, and their synthesized effect are analyzed. The optimal temperature and treatment time for FR 4 PCB recycling with SCF CO2 are found by building a quadratic polynomial equation model of output parameters in recycling technology. The accuracy of the derived optimal temperature and treatment time is validated by a series of experiments.     

A Hilbert fractal antenna and portable monitoring system for partial discharge detection in gas insulated substations

We design a third Hilbert fractal antenna for partial discharge (PD) monitoring in gas insulated substations (GIS) based on fractal principles, and analyze the Hilbert antenna impedance characteristics using an equivalent inductance method of parallel transmission lines. The PD experiment of metal protrusion defect is conducted employing fractal and microstrip antennae. The test results show that the characteristic of the Hilbert fractal antenna has good performance and can detect the PD signal for online monitoring in GIS. A portable online monitoring and locating system for GIS is established using the Hilbert fractal antenna and LabVIEW. The locating accuracy of the PD source in the laboratory meets the requirements of the PD site location.     

Theory and approach to reactive power flow tracing

Based on an analysis of the characteristics of reactive power supplies and reactive loads, this paper presents a method for forming a lossless reactive network using an equivalent technique of modeling the branch admittance as a reactive power supply and the branch power loss as a virtual load. A downstream distribution matrix for a power system is constructed based on its reactive lossless network, and the analytical model and its algorithm for tracing reactive power flow (TRPF) is proposed. A method dealing with the abnormal downstream distribution matrix of active power flow also is discussed. The main advantage of the proposed method is that the matrix theory is used to analyze the TRPF model directly and no assumption on the flow distribution is needed. Case studies of the IEEE14 Bus and IEEE30 Bus systems demonstrate the accuracy and the validity of the proposed method.     

Contact analysis of a new style planetary reducer with a double crank and internal gear board

To address the problems of low carrying capacity and short life of bearings in current ring reducers, a new type of ring reducer is proposed which consists of a two stepped transmission. One is a planetary transmission, and the other is an N type planetary transmission with a low tooth number difference. Based on the analysis of structural features, the transmission principle, and a transmission load situation, a contact finite element model of the new type of ring reducer is set up, and the stress value and the actual pairs of meshing teeth are derived by calculation. Based on gear modification research theory, the second stage transmission gear pairs of the new reducer are modified on its teeth profiles. Results demonstrate that the load capacity of transmission gear pairs have been enhanced greatly.     

The optimal energy efficiency of wireless networks nodes based on solar cells

To improve the energy efficiency of solar cells in wireless sensor networks nodes, the energy relationship between solar cells and the wireless sensor networks nodes is studied. An adaptive algorithm is adopted to ensure the wireless sensor networks work normally at different sunlight intensities. An energy model is designed that reveals the energy relationship between the output power of the solar cells and the power of nodes working normally at a standard sunlight intensity. The experimental results show that the model represents the adaptive energy relationship between the solar cells and the nodes, ensures that the nodes work stably in a long term, and extends the life cycle of the sensor networks as long as possible. The model has important guiding significance for wireless sensor networks designation.
