Finite-time Containment Control of Nonlinear Delayed Fractional Multi-agent Systems

This article deals with finite-time containment control (FTCC) of nonlinear delayed fractional multi-agent systems (FMASs). Addressing fractional Razumikhin approach, properties of fractional calculus and analytical techniques, a quadratic Lyapunov function is constructed to derive sufficient conditions on FTCC by adopting a discontinuous control protocol, the employed method may overcome well the troubles arising from time delays and fractional derivatives. Numerical simulations further clarify the reliability and validity of our theoretical conclusions.

Super-Planckian thermal radiation enabled by hyperbolic surface phonon polaritons

Excitation of surface resonance modes and presence of resonance-free hyperbolic modes are two common ways to enhance the near-field radiative energy transport, which can find wide applications in noncontact thermal management and energy harvesting. Here, we identify another way to achieve the super-Planckian thermal radiation via hyperbolic surface phonon polaritons (HSPhPs). Based on the fluctuation-dissipation theory, the near-field radiative heat flux between bulk hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) planes with the optical axis perpendicular to the radiative energy flow can be 120 times as large as the blackbody limit for a gap distance of 20 nm. When the film thickness is reduced to 10 nm, the radiative heat flux is found to increase by 26.3%. The underlying mechanism is attributed to the coupling of Type I HSPhPs inside the anisotropic hBN film, which improves the energy transmission coefficient over a broad wavevector space especially for waves with extremely high wavevectors. This work helps to deepen the understanding of near-field radiation between natural hyperbolic materials, and opens a new route to enhance the near-field thermal radiation.

我国城市流浪人员的救助管理与完善对策——以调研上海市救助管理现状为例

当前上海市在流浪人员救助管理过程中,还存在一些亟待解决的问题,主要体现在四个方面:对长期滞留人员安置困难,救助工作仍停留于表面问题的解决,救助管理的专业力量还比较缺乏,救助管理人员的职业风险比较大。基于此,建议:增加救助站的服务内容,把技能培训工作常态化,让流浪乞讨人员有学习知识的机会;提高救助管理人员的福利待遇,增强救助职业的吸引力;在大的临时性救助站附近增设警务站,方便突发性暴力事件得到及时处置;出台相应法规政策,逐步引导民间组织和人员参与救助工作。

Experimental investigations of machining characteristics and removal mechanisms of advanced ceramics in high speed deep grinding

Machining characteristics and surface integrity of advanced ceramics, including alumina, alumina–titania, and yttria partially stabilized tetragonal zirconia, were studied under high speed deep grinding conditions. Material removal mechanisms involved in the grinding processes were explored. The material removal in the grinding of alumina and alumina–titania was dominated by grain dislodgement or lateral cracking along grain boundaries. The removal for zirconia was via both local micro fracture and ductile cutting. It was found that under a feed rate of 500 mm/min and for all the wheel speeds used, an increase in the wheel depth of cut (DOC) from 0.1–2 mm slightly improved the ground surface finish, but greatly prolonged the wheel life. This increase did not deepen the subsurface damage layer for the alumina and alumina–titania, but resulted in a slightly deeper damage layer for the zirconia.

Einfluß des totvolumens auf die Al2O3-CVD-Abscheidung

The influence of the free gas volume around the substrate on the chemical vapor deposition of Al₂O₃ layers in the AlCl₃/H₂/CO₂ system at different pressures and temperatures has been studied. Through the water gas reaction which occurs homogeneously in the gas phase, the Al₂O₃ growth rate increases with increasing free gas volume until a certain volume is reached, after which it remains constant. For this ‘critical free gas volume’ a theoretical characteristic dimension L_max is introduced. It is defined as the normal distance from a substrate surface, at which the water molecules formed from the CO₂ + H₂ in the gas phase can no longer reach the substrate surface in the time available. The dependencies of L_max on pressure, temperature and gas flow rate deduced through this theoretical consideration show agreement with the experimental results.

Zusammenfassung

Der Einfluß des die Substrate umgebenden Totvolumens auf die Al₂O₃-CVD-Abscheidung im System AlCl₃/H₂/CO₂ wurde systematisch bei verschiedenen Drücken und Temperaturen untersucht. Durch die homogen in der Gasphase ablaufende Wassergasreaktion nimmt in allen Fällen die Abscheidungs-geschwindigkeit mit vergrößerten Totvolumen zuerst zu, bleibt aber ab einer bestimmten Totvolumensgröße konstant. Für diese “kritische Totvolumensgröße” wird die theoretische Kenngröße L_max eingeführt. Diese Größe ist als Normalabstand zur Substratoberfläche definiert, bei dem das in der Gasphase aus CO₂ + H₂ gebildeten Wasser in der zur Verfügung stehenden Zeit die mit AlCl₃ belegte Oberfläche der Substrate nicht mehr erreichen kann. Die aus dieser theoretischen Überlegung abgeleiteten Voraussagen über die Abhängigkeit des L_max von Druck, Temperatur und Gasströmungsgeschwindigkeit zeigten Übereinstimmung mit den Versuchsergebnissen.
