面向高光谱影像分类的多特征流形鉴别嵌入

鉴于传统维数约减方法对高光谱遥感影像进行降维时,往往只利用了单一的光谱特征,限制了分类性能的提升。提出一种基于多特征流形鉴别嵌入的维数约减方法,该方法首先提取高光谱数据的LBP(Local Binary Patterns)纹理特征,然后利用样本点的光谱-LBP特征联合距离及类别信息构建类内图和类间图以发现高光谱影像中的鉴别流形结构,在低维嵌入空间中不仅保持来自同一像素的光谱和纹理特征的相似性,而且使同类点尽可能紧致、不同类点远离,实现空-谱联合低维鉴别特征提取,以有效提高地物分类性能。在Indian Pines和黑河高光谱遥感数据集上的实验表明,本文算法的分类精度在不同实验条件下均优于传统的维数约减方法,其分类精度可达95.05%和96.20%,在较少训练样本条件下优势更为明显,有利于实际应用。     

Engineering grain boundary anisotropy to elucidate grain growth behavior in alumina

Current grain growth models have evolved to account for the relationship between grain boundary energy/mobility anisotropy and the five degrees of grain boundary character. However, the role of grain boundary networks on overall growth kinetics remains poorly understood. To experimentally investigate this problem, a highly textured Al₂O₃ was fabricated by colloidal casting in a strong magnetic field to engineer a unique spatial distribution of grain boundary character. Microstructural evolution was quantified and compared to an untextured sample. From this comparison, a prevalence of (0001)/(0001) terminated grain boundaries with anisotropic networks were identified in the textured sample. These boundaries and their networks were found to be driving grain growth at a faster rate than predicted by models. These findings will allow better modelling of grain growth in real systems by experimentally exploring the impact thereon of grain boundary plane anisotropy and relative energy/mobility differences between neighboring boundaries.     

Balancing the strength and ductility of Mg-6Zn-0.2Ca alloy via sub-rapid solidification combined with hard-plate rolling

In this study,we successfully prepared a Mg-6Zn-0.2Ca alloy by utilizing sub-rapid solidification (SRS)combined with hard-plate rolling (HPR),whose elongation-to-failure increases from ～17 ％ to ～23 ％without sacrificing tensile strength (～290 MPa) compared with its counterpart processed via conven-tional solidification (CS) followed by HPR.Notably,both samples feature a similar refined grain structure with an average grain size of ～2.1 and ～2.5 μm,respectively.However,the high cooling rate of ～ 150 K/s introduced by SRS modified both the size and morphology of Ca2Mg6Zn3 eutectic phase in comparison to those coarse ones under CS condition.By subsequent HPR,the Ca2Mg6Zn3 phase was further refined and dispersed uniformly by severe fragmentation.Specially,the achieved supersaturation containing exces-sive Ca solute atoms due to high cooling rate was maintained in the SRS-HPR condition.The mechanisms that govern the high ductility of the SRS-HPR sample could be ascribed to following reasons.First,refined Ca2Mg6Zn3 eutectic phase could effectively alleviate or avoid the crack initiation.Furthermore,excessive Ca solute atoms in α-Mg matrix result in the yield point phenomenon and enhanced strain-hardening ability during tension.The findings proposed a short-processed strategy towards superior performance of Mg-6Zn-0.2Ca alloy for industrial applications.     

Effect of storage time on sensory and instrumental properties of skim‐milk yoghurt obtained with microbial transglutaminase

Not many studies have examined changes in microbial transglutaminase (MTG) yoghurts during storage. In this work, yoghurts manufactured with skimmed milk and treated with MTG were evaluated in refrigerated storage for 35 days. Instrumental measurements showed that firmness, consistency and pH values in MTG yoghurt experienced a significant increase with the storage time. However, sensory measurements showed that MTG yoghurts were not affected significantly by storage time. Acid taste scores only increased significantly with storage time in the control samples. Microbial transglutaminase treatment showed a positive effect on textural properties and allowed syneresis to be prevented completely during storage.     

Temperature Effects on the Microstructures of Mg-Gd-Y Alloy Processed by Multi-direction Impact Forging

A high strain rate multi-directional impact forging(MDIF) was applied to a solutionized Mg-Gd-Y-Zr alloy in the temperature range of 350-500℃.Results demonstrate that the dominant deformation mode is twinning at a temperature below 400℃,whereas at a medium temperature of 450℃ considerable continuous dynamic recrystallization was promoted by{10-12} extension twins.At a higher temperature of 500℃,twinning activation was suppressed.New DRX grains were observed but their sizes were much bigger than those resulting from the MDIFed 50 passes at 450℃,which are ascribed to the larger grain boundary mobility and atomic diffusion at 500℃.Moreover,a non-basal weak texture was gained afterward MDIF at each temperature,which is credited to the MDIF process and the minor strain applied in each pass.     

AZ31镁合金薄板经不同累积应变的连续弯曲变形后的显微组织与成形性能

对AZ31镁合金板材进行不同累积应变的连续弯曲变形及退火处理,随后对显微组织与力学性能的变化进行了研究。结果表明:经不同累积应变的连续弯曲变形后,镁合金板材的显微组织中没有发现孪晶,退火后,板材表层的晶粒异常长大,粗晶层的厚度随着累积应变的增加而增加,并且镁合金板材的织构朝RD方向偏转,偏转角度随累积应变的增加而增大;与原始板材相比,连续弯曲变形及退火处理使镁合金板材呈现出较好的室温成形性能(杯突值由2.3 mm提高到4.9 mm,提高了~113%),这主要归因于基面织构的改善使镁合金板材的r值减小与n值增大。     

Effect of texture on oxidation resistance of Ti3AlC2

Oxidation resistance of textured Ti₃AlC₂ ceramics was measured in the temperature range 1273–1573?K. It was found that the oxidation was markedly anisotropic and the samples exhibited a better oxidation resistance when tested along a direction transverse to the c-axis. This behavior was attributed to the rapid diffusion of Al within its basal planes to form a passivating Al₂O₃ scale and it respected Ellingham diagrams. The scales formed had different compositions depending on the testing direction; this response was clearly resulting from the crystallographic orientation. Even at 1473?K after 20?h exposure, the samples tested in a direction transverse to the c-axis showed a reduced weight gain which was 45 times lower than one seen on a basal plane.     

Mechanism of significantly enhanced piezoelectric performance and stability in textured potassium-sodium niobate piezoelectric ceramics

In this study, the piezoelectric coefficient d₃₃ and planar electromechanical coupling coefficient k_p were enhanced 145% and 71%, respectively for the <001>-textured (K_0.5Na_0.5)_0.95Li_0.05Nb_0.93Sb_0.07O₃ piezoelectric ceramics compared with their randomly oriented counterpart. Significantly enhanced piezoelectric response in textured ceramics is originated from a combined effect of the intrinsic high piezoelectric activity of <001>-oriented grains in the tetragonal-orthorhombic phases, and easy polarization rotation of fine domains. Furthermore, a comparative analysis suggests that <001>-textured ceramics exhibit good thermal stability, benefiting from the weakened depolarization behavior via crystal orientation. The superior fatigue resistance in textured ceramics can be attributed to the reduced clamping effect as low defect density. These results show that high-performance textured ceramics reported in this work will be promising candidates in the field of lead-free piezoelectric materials.

This assessment is focussed on wrought magnesium alloys for lightweight applications, particularly in the transport sector. The challenges to their wider use are summarised, including poor low temperature formability, corrosion issues, dissimilar metal joining, and limited precipitation strengthening. The fundamental origins of these challenges, and current research to address them, are highlighted. Key developments such as the use of dilute rare earth additions to manipulate texture for improved formability are discussed. Opportunities to exploit the unique properties of wrought magnesium alloys where further research is required are identified.
