Robust Mapping for Mobile Robot Based on Immobile Area Grid Map Considering Potential Moving Objects

Mobile robots need Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) for autonomous movement in human living environments. The occupancy grid map used in SLAM is a conventional method which makes a map by an occupancy probability in each grid. This method renews a map based on whether an object is observed or not. In order to remove moving objects from a map, an additional method is required. However, conventional methods deal only with actually moving objects, and potential moving objects (e.g., standing humans) are mapped as static objects. Furthermore, only binary states, used or not used, are given to each object in map updating. This paper proposes the immobility area grid map to represent a map by an immobility probability in each grid. The proposed method renews a map based on the identification of observed objects by a robot's sensors, in addition to whether an object is observed or not. We introduce the map update parameter, which is set adaptively from the certainty of identification result of the object. Observed objects can take continuous states, truly static—unknown—truly moving, according to the parameter value. Potential moving objects are not mapped if the parameter takes values corresponding to moving objects. The experimental results show robust mapping in dynamic environments including potential moving objects.

Bifunctional electrocatalysts for water splitting from a bimetallic (V doped-NixFey) Metal–Organic framework MOF@Graphene oxide composite

An ongoing challenge still lies in the exploration of proficient electrocatalysts from earth-abundant non-precious metals instead of noble metal-based catalysts for clean hydrogen energy through large-Scale electrochemical water splitting. However, developing a non-precious transition metals based, stable electrocatalyst for cathodic hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and anodic oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is important challenge for modern energy conversion technology. In this report Vanadium doped bimetallic nickel-iron nanoarray, fabricated by carbon supported architecture through carbonization process for electrochemical water splitting. Three types of catalysts were prepared in different molar ratio of Ni/Fe. The electrocatalytic performance demonstrated that the catalyst with equal mole ratio (0.06:0.06) of Ni/Fe possess high catalytic activity for both OER and HER in alkaline and acidic medium. Besides, our findings revealed that the doping of vanadium could play a strong synergetic effect with Ni/Fe, which provide a small overpotential of 90 mV and 210 mV at 10 mA cm^?2 for HER and OER respectively compared to the other two catalyst counterparts. Also, the catalyst with 1:1 (Ni/Fe) molar ratio showed a high current density of 208 mA cm^?2 for HER at 0.5 M H₂SO₄ and 579 mA cm^?2 for OER at 1 M KOH solution, the both current densities are much higher than the other two catalysts (different Ni/Fe ratio). In addition, the presented catalysts showed extremely good durability, reflecting in more than 20 h of consistent Chronoamprometry study at fixed overpotential η = 250 mV without any visible voltage elevation. Similarly, the (Ni/Fe) equal ratio catalyst showed better corrosion potential 0.209 V vs Ag/AgCl and lower current density 0.594 × 10^?12 A cm^?2 in high alkaline medium. The V-doping, MOF/GO surface defects are significantly increased the corrosion potential of the V-Ni_xFe_y-MOF/GO electrocatalyst. Besides, the water electrolyzed products were analysed by gas chromatography to get clear insights on the formed H₂ and O₂ products.     

Adaptive sampling strategy for characterizing spatial distribution of soil liquefaction potential using cone penetration test

Characterizing spatial distribution of soil liquefaction potential is critical for assessing liquefaction-related hazards (e.g. building damages caused by liquefaction-induced differential settlement). However, in engineering practice, soil liquefaction potential is usually measured at limited locations in a specific site using in situ tests, e.g. cone penetration tests (CPTs), due to the restrictions of time, cost and access to subsurface space. In these cases, liquefaction potential of soil at untested locations requires to be interpreted from limited measured data points using proper interpolation method, leading to remarkable statistical uncertainty in liquefaction assessment. This underlines an important question of how to optimize the locations of CPT soundings and determine the minimum number of CPTs for achieving a target reliability level of liquefaction assessment. To tackle this issue, this study proposes a smart sampling strategy for determining the minimum number of CPTs and their optimal locations in a self-adaptive and data-driven manner. The proposed sampling strategy leverages on information entropy and Bayesian compressive sampling (BCS). Both simulated and real CPT data are used to demonstrate the proposed method. Illustrative examples indicate that the proposed method can adaptively and sequentially select the required number and optimal locations of CPTs.     

Multilayer assembly of ionic starches on old corrugated container recycled cellulosic fibers

In this study, old corrugated container recycled fibers were treated with polyelectrolyte multilayers consisting of biopolymer cationic starch with two degrees of substitution (DS) each in combination with one anionic starch. Pulp zeta potential, paper strength and the thin layer ellipsometry technique were applied to examine the influence of cationic starch DS on the formation of polyelectrolyte multilayers. The results indicated a significant interaction between the DS of cationic starch and the number of ionic starch layers formed. When low‐DS cationic starch was used, the pulp zeta potential and the paper strength increased significantly in assembling the first cationic layer. However, in depositing high‐DS cationic starch a greater zeta potential and a stronger influence on the paper strength were observed with a larger number of starch layers. This was confirmed by thin layer ellipsometry when a greater thickness of multilayers was achieved by employing high‐DS cationic starch to form a higher number of layers. © 2017 Society of Chemical Industry     

相场法研究Ni-Al间作用势对Ni75Al14Cr11合金L10预析出相的影响

采用微观相场法研究了Ni_(75)Al_(14)Cr_(11)合金第1个近邻到第4个近邻Ni-Al原子间相互作用势对L1_0预析出相沉淀过程的影响。结果表明,当第3近邻Ni-Al原子间相互作用势增大或第4种近邻Ni-Al原子间相互作用势减少时,L1_0预析出相和L1_2平衡相均提前沉淀,且L1_0预析出相体积分数减少而L1_2相的最终体积分数几乎不变;当第3近邻Ni-Al原子间相互作用势减少或第4近邻Ni-Al原子间相互作用势的增大时,L1_0预析出相和L1_2最终相都会推迟沉淀,且L1_0预析出相和L1_2相体积分数均增大;与上述2种情况相比,改变第1近邻Ni-Al原子间相互作用势对L1_0预析出相沉淀过程的影响较小,而改变第2近邻Ni-Al原子间相互作用势对沉淀过程几乎没有影响。进一步研究表明,Ni-Al原子间相互作用势改变不影响合金的沉淀机制,将影响L1_0预析出相、L1_2平衡相的析出时间、速度和2种相的体积分数,沉淀形貌等,从而影响Ni_(75)Al_(14)Cr_(11)高温合金的结构和性能,对合金优化设计有指导意义。     

Quantitative analysis of fuel-saving potential for waste heat recovery system integrated with hybrid electric vehicle

Hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) with low fuel consumption, low emissions, and long driving range are the ideal transition models between conventional fuel vehicles and pure electric vehicles. The growing demand for increased vehicle efficiency has motivated the introduction of waste heat recovery (WHR) technology in the automotive industry, with the organic Rankine cycle (ORC) as the most promising measure for recycling waste energy. Currently, only a few studies have been conducted to couple HEV and WHR systems. These studies have mainly focused on the hybrid powertrain control strategy, but lack quantitative methods to comprehensively analyze the fuel-saving potential due to the WHR system. In this study, an HEV-WHR integrated system that includes a mechanism-based dynamic model of ORC and a hybrid diesel-electric truck model is established. Further, a quantitative evaluation method that simultaneously considers the negative integrated effects (increased vehicle weight and increased exhaust back pressure) and the positive impact values of the engine, motor, and WHR system on the fuel-saving potential is proposed. Finally, the influence of two environmental factors (wind speed and ambient temperature) on the fuel-saving performance is analyzed. The results reveal that under the standard highway driving cycle (HWY), the negative integrated effects reduce the ideal fuel-saving potential of the HEV-WHR system from 6.10% to 5.42%. However, the optimized performances of the engine, motor, and WHR system improve the fuel-saving rate by 0.39%, 1.81%, and 3.22%, respectively. The results also indicate that the fuel-saving potential increases from 1.62% to 8.60% with increasing wind speed and decreases from 6.70% to 4.25% with increasing ambient temperature.
