基于双层修正无迹卡尔曼的水下节点定位算法* .txt

摘要：针对水下无线传感网络中运动节点定位精度低的问题，提出了一种新的基于双层修正无迹卡尔曼的水下节点定位算法(DLMUKF)。该算法利用下层无迹卡尔曼滤波算法对节点状态进行预测，根据各信标节点的测距传播时延对预测的节点状态进行修正。运用上层无迹卡尔曼滤波算法对修正后的状态进行新的预测与修正。仿真实验中，DLMUKF算法的平均定位误差约为传统多边定位算法的15%，约为基于无迹卡尔曼滤波（UKF）定位算法的16%，受节点运动时间与速度的影响最小。通过实验证明DLMUKF算法能更充分利用实际距离值，可以有效减小运动节点的定位误差。 .txt

Diagnosis of the surface morphology of laser-ablated materials using the weighted- DCT approach in laser speckle interferometry for application to plasma facing materials

To implement on-line, real-time monitoring for the surface morphology of Plasma-Facing Materials (PFMs) in tokamak, we developed a Laser Speckle Interferometry measurement approach. A laser ablation method was used to simulate the erosion process during Plasma-Wall Interactions in a tokamak. In the present investigation, we evaluated the results of laser ablation morphology changes on the surface of Mo material reconstructed by four different approaches (Flood-fill, Quality-guided, Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) and Weighted-DCT). The morphology results measured by the weighted-DCT approach are very close to the measurement results from confocal microscopy with an average error rate within 7%. It is verified that the weighted-DCT algorithm has high accuracy and can efficiently reduce the influence of noise pollution coming from laser ablation, which is used as a proxy for erosion from plasma wall interaction. Additionally, the CPU computer time has been shortened. This is of great significance for the real-time monitoring of PFMs’ morphology in the Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak (EAST) in the future.     

Frequency dependence of plasma characteristics at different pressures in cylindrical inductively coupled plasma source

The effects of driving frequency on plasma parameters and electron heating efficiency are studied in cylindrical inductively coupled plasma (ICP) source. Measurements are made in an Ar discharge for driving frequency at 13.56/2 MHz, and pressures of 0.4–1.2 Pa. In 13.56 MHz discharge, higher electron density (n_e) and higher electron temperature (T_e) are observed in comparison with 2 MHz discharge at 0.6–1.2 Pa. However, slightly highern_e andT_e are observed in 2 MHz discharge at 0.4 Pa. This observation is explained by enhanced electron heating efficiency due to the resonance between the oscillation of 2 MHz electromagnetic field and electron-neutral collision process at 0.4 Pa. It is also found that the variation ofT_e distribution is different in 13.56 and 2 MHz discharge. For ICP at 13.56 MHz, T_e shows an edge-high profile at 0.4–1.2 Pa. For 2 MHz discharge,T_e remains an edge-high distribution at 0.4–0.8 Pa. However, the distribution pattern involves into a center-high profile at 0.9–1.2 Pa. The spatial profiles ofn_e remain a center-high shape in both 13.56 and 2 MHz discharges, which indicates the nonlocal kinetics at low pressures. Better uniformity could be achieved by using 2 MHz discharge. The effects of gas pressure on plasma parameters are also examined. An increase in gas pressure necessitates the rise ofn_e in both 13.56 and 2 MHz discharges. Meanwhile, T_e drops when gas pressure increases and shows a flatter distribution at higher pressure.     

Influence of gas atmosphere on synergistic control of mercury and dioxin by nonthermal plasma

In this paper, narrow-pulse power discharge is used to study the synergistic control of mercury and dioxins, in which 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene (TCB) was used as a dioxin analog, by using a self- designed experimental system. The competitive effects of NO, SO₂ and HCl on the TCB removal by non-thermal plasma are discussed. The influence of acid gas on TCB degradation is reflected in the competitive effect. NO has the greatest influence on TCB degradation efficiency. The oxidation efficiency of Hg⁰ decreased by about 10% in all three acidic gas atmospheres, and the effect of each gas component on Hg⁰ oxidation is complex. In the flue gas atmosphere of ‘acid gas+Hg⁰ +TCB’, the mechanism of the synergistic control of Hg⁰ and TCB by the non- thermal plasma is different, which has competition and promotion relationship between each other. The contribution of various flue gas components to the results was complicated, but the overall experimental results show that the synergistic control effect of the system can continue to improve. According to the generated product backstepping, ·OH plays an important role in the synergistic control of the degradation of Hg⁰ and TCB. Through this study, we hope to provide basic research data for the collaborative control of flue gas in the incineration industry.     

Effects of temperature on creepage discharge characteristics in oil-impregnated pressboard insulation under combined AC–DC voltage

Due to the complexity of the valve side winding voltage of the converter transformer, the insulation characteristics of the oil-impregnated pressboard (OIP) of the converter transformer are different from those of the traditional AC transformer. The study on effect of temperature on the creeping discharge characteristics of OIP under combined AC–DC voltage is seriously inadequate. Therefore, this paper investigates the characteristics of OIP creepage discharge under combined AC–DC voltage and discusses the influence of temperature on creepage discharge characteristics under different temperatures from 70°C to 110 °C. The experimental results show that the partial discharge inception voltage and flashover voltage decrease with increasing temperature. The times of low amplitude discharge (LAD) decrease and amplitude of LAD increases. Simultaneously, the times of high amplitude discharge (HAD) gradually increase at each stage of creepage discharge with higher temperature. The analysis indicates that the charge carriers easily accumulate and quickly migrate directional movement along the electric field ahead of discharging. The residual charge carriers are more easily dissipated after discharging. The ‘hump’ region of LAD moves to the direction of higher discharge magnitude. The interval time between two continuous discharges is shortened obviously. The concentration of HAD accelerates the development of OIP insulation creepage discharge. The temperature had an accelerating effect on the development of discharge in the OIP under applying voltage.     

Heating frequency optimization for artificial field-aligned scattering

In this study, we present a simulation study of artificial field-aligned irregularities (AFAI) to calculate the scattering coefficient considering a Gaussian autocorrelation function for the wave number spectrum of the density fluctuation. By analyzing variations in the scattering coefficient under different ionospheric backgrounds, the optimal range of the heating frequency was found, which is about 0.9–1 times the critical frequency of the F2 layer. This is especially noticeable as when the heating frequency varies from 0.5 times to 0.9 times of the critical frequency, the scattering coefficient increases by 6.8–16.2 dB. These results should be useful for optimizing the heating frequency in the future artificial field-aligned scattering (AFAS) transmission applications at middle and low latitudes.     

Structural and Magnetic Studies of Ga-doped Yttrium Iron Garnet

Ga-doped Yttrium Iron Garnet (Y₃Ga_xFe_5-xO₁₂,Ga:YIG) was prepared by solid state reaction method and sintering at 1 300 ℃.Rietveld analysis of X-ray diffraction patterns indicated that all samples crystallized in a single cubic structure (space group Ia-3d) with decreasing lattice constant as Ga concentration increased.SEM surface micrograph images of YIG samples showed highly compacted grains with small reduction in the grain size with increasing Ga concentration.Raman spectroscopy measurements confirmed the replacement of Fe³⁺ ions by Ga³⁺ ions in the garnet structure was revealed by the observed blue shifts in Raman spectra.The saturation magnetization decreased from 28.2 to 4.98 emu g^-1 with increasing x from 0.0 to 1.0 due to the preferential substitution of Ga³⁺ ions for Fe³⁺ ions at tetrahedral sites.Room temperature M?ssbauer spectra for the samples revealed a reduction of the hyperfine field values for octahedral and tetrahedral sites,and the development of additional components with increasing Ga concentration.Analysis of the magnetic data and M?ssbauer spectra confirmed that spin canting in the substituted garnets plays an important role in explaining the observed reduction of the saturation magnetization as x increased.     

Destructive and non-destructive evaluation of concrete for optimum sand to aggregate volume ratio

Aggregates are the biggest contributor to concrete volume and are a crucial parameter in dictating its mechanical properties. As such, a detailed experimental investigation was carried out to evaluate the effect of sand-to-aggregate volume ratio (s/a) on the mechanical properties of concrete utilizing both destructive and non-destructive testing (employing UPV (ultrasonic pulse velocity) measurements). For investigation, standard cylindrical concrete samples were made with different s/a (0.36, 0.40, 0.44, 0.48, 0.52, and 0.56), cement content (340 and 450 kg/m³), water-to-cement ratio (0.45 and 0.50), and maximum aggregate size (12 and 19 mm). The effect of these design parameters on the 7, 14, and 28 d compressive strength, tensile strength, elastic modulus, and UPV of concrete were assessed. The careful analysis demonstrates that aggregate proportions and size need to be optimized for formulating mix designs; optimum ratios of s/a were found to be 0.40 and 0.44 for the maximum aggregate size of 12 and 19 mm, respectively, irrespective of the W/C (water-to-cement) and cement content.
