A Practical Method for Animating Anisotropic Elastoplastic Materials

This paper introduces a simple method for simulating highly anisotropic elastoplastic material behaviors like the dissolution of fibrous phenomena (splintering wood, shredding bales of hay) and materials composed of large numbers of irregularly-shaped bodies (piles of twigs, pencils, or cards). We introduce a simple transformation of the anisotropic problem into an equivalent isotropic one, and we solve this new “fictitious” isotropic problem using an existing simulator based on the material point method. Our approach results in minimal changes to existing simulators, and it allows us to re-use popular isotropic plasticity models like the Drucker-Prager yield criterion instead of inventing new anisotropic plasticity models for every phenomenon we wish to simulate.

A polyanionic anthraquinone organic cathode for pure small-molecule organic Li-ion batteries

Sodium 9,10-anthraquinone-2,6-disulfonate (Na₂AQ26DS, 130 mAh g⁻¹) with polyanionic character and two O–Na ionic bonds is used as an organic cathode for Li-ion batteries. Na₂AQ26DS exhibits highly impressive cycle stability in ether electrolytes due to its polyanionic character and the effective suppression of solvent-molecule co-intercalation. In half cells (1–3.9 V vs. Li⁺/Li) using 1 M bis(trifluoromethanesulphonyl)imide lithium salt (LiTFSI) in 1,3-dioxolane/dimethoxyethane (DOL/DME), Na₂AQ26DS delivers a highly stable specific capacity of 123 mAh g⁻¹ at 50 mA g⁻¹ for 900 cycles (6-month test) and realizes ∼69 mAh g⁻¹ for 2800 cycles at 500 mA g⁻¹. In the full cells with the reduced state (Li₄TP) of lithium terephthalate (Li₂TP) as the organic anode, the resulting Li₄TP II Na₂AQ26DS organic lithium-ion batteries (OLIBs) can display a highly stable average discharge capacity of 120 mAh g⁻¹_cathode for 100 cycles at 50 mA g⁻¹ and ∼63 mAh g⁻¹_cathode for 1200 cycles at 500 mA g⁻¹ in 0.2–3.3 V.     

高温、高湿和光照对特殊医用配方食品流变特性的影响

为确定特殊医用配方食品在高温、高湿、光照条件下的流变性变化,以豌豆肽为原料进行影响因素(高温、高湿、光照)试验、加速试验、长期试验,揭示环境因素对特殊医用配方食品黏性、弹性与流变性质的影响。特殊医用配方食品在高温下5 d之后食用安全性降低;在高湿条件下放置10 d左右的医用食品,其食用安全性相对于放置5 d左右的医用食品安全性要高;在光照条件下5 d之后食用安全性降低。由此可见,温度、湿度、光照对特殊医用配方的食用有很大影响。在加速试验及长期试验中,医用食品最佳保质期时间应控制在2~5个月。文章为具有广阔发展前景的特殊医用食品的开发、食用条件及储存条件提供理论数据和指导依据。     

Style-Controllable Speech-Driven Gesture Synthesis Using Normalising Flows

Automatic synthesis of realistic gestures promises to transform the fields of animation, avatars and communicative agents. In off-line applications, novel tools can alter the role of an animator to that of a director, who provides only high-level input for the desired animation; a learned network then translates these instructions into an appropriate sequence of body poses. In interactive scenarios, systems for generating natural animations on the fly are key to achieving believable and relatable characters. In this paper we address some of the core issues towards these ends. By adapting a deep learning-based motion synthesis method called MoGlow, we propose a new generative model for generating state-of-the-art realistic speech-driven gesticulation. Owing to the probabilistic nature of the approach, our model can produce a battery of different, yet plausible, gestures given the same input speech signal. Just like humans, this gives a rich natural variation of motion. We additionally demonstrate the ability to exert directorial control over the output style, such as gesture level, speed, symmetry and spacial extent. Such control can be leveraged to convey a desired character personality or mood. We achieve all this without any manual annotation of the data. User studies evaluating upper-body gesticulation confirm that the generated motions are natural and well match the input speech. Our method scores above all prior systems and baselines on these measures, and comes close to the ratings of the original recorded motions. We furthermore find that we can accurately control gesticulation styles without unnecessarily compromising perceived naturalness. Finally, we also demonstrate an application of the same method to full-body gesticulation, including the synthesis of stepping motion and stance.

Defensible citadel:History and architectural character of the Lahore Railway Station

This study aims to investigate the defensible character of the Lahore railway station built in response to “the war of independence in 1857,” which greatly impacted the location and design of the building. This study demonstrates the integral role played by the railway station in the development of the new colonial city, which the British wants to be defensive in every aspect. Railways were introduced in Pakistan (India) soon after their inauguration in Britain. Beginning from the mode of transportation, the multifaced contribution of railways toward the urban growth, new architectural style, mode of construction, and technology cannot be recanted. The research is based on the documentation and analysis of the history of Lahore railway station design. First, this study uses primary and secondary data to offer a history of the Lahore railway station from its inception to final execution. Second, it explores the criteria adopted by the British for its site selection to make the station a defensible post. The research finding includes the visual features that enhanced the architectural character of the building. Qualitative methods are used including several other approaches, namely, literature review, archival data collection, analysis of photographs, and study of architectural drawings and old maps, to achieve the objectives.     

抗氢合金J75中低∑CSL晶界的形成与演化

以铁镍基抗氢合金J75为研究对象,采用单步形变热处理和电子背散射衍射(EBSD)技术,研究了低∑CSL晶界的形成和演化过程。结果表明:采用5%预变形+1000℃退火的单步形变热处理方法,可将J75合金中低∑CSL晶界的比例提升至70%以上,形成具有∑3n取向关系的晶粒团簇;退火过程中,低∑CSL晶界比例的提升主要是由于∑3n界面比例的提升,其中∑3占绝大比例。发现一种∑3再生过程,其机制在于:由于∑3ic迁移能力强,在退火过程中与其他∑3相遇会形成∑9晶界,而∑9与∑3相遇,倾向于发生∑9+∑3→∑3,导致∑3的再生;不连续大角度随机晶界(R)与低∑CSL晶界相遇会形成R/∑晶界,当R/∑晶界为低∑CSL晶界时,则构成较多具有低∑CSL晶界的网络,打断了R晶界的连通性。
