Study of phase equilibria in the Al - Pd - Re system

Scanning and transmission electron microscopy have been combined with x-ray diffraction to examine the phase equilibria in the Al - Pd - Re system at 1000°C for compositions from 50 to 100 at.% Al, and the corresponding isothermal section has been constructed. The binary monoclinic Al₃ Re phase has been observed for the first time. It is confirmed that there is a stable icosahedral phase in this system. The boundaries to its homogeneity region have been determined and the phase equilibria in which it participates.

Low-temperature pyroelectric properties of Li<Subscript>2</Subscript>SO<Subscript>4</Subscript>

The pyroelectric properties of lithium sulfate have been studied theoretically on the hypothesis of a pseudosymmetry of the structure of its polar phase. Analytical expressions are proposed for the temperature dependences of its pyroelectric polarization and pyroelectric coefficient at low temperatures and near the polymorphic transformation. The pyroelectric and piezoelectric coefficients of a polar crystal are shown to be in direct proportion.     

实用户外视频监控异常检测策略

树枝叶等植物的晃动是造成户外监控背景复杂性的主要因素。该文提出一种基于视频分析的运动对象检测策略，利用快慢双背射模型检测运动变化像素，并通过邻域像素的棚关性检测消除虚假运动对象。实验表明此算法对户外监控不但速度快而且检测效果理想，满足实用化要求。     

The effect of titanium dioxide on structure and properties of boron-free glasses

IR spectroscopic and x-ray phase analysis established the structural specifics of glasses in the system Na₂O-SiO₂-TiO₂-Na₃AlF₆, as well as the dependence on the type of crystallizing phases on the chemical composition of the glass matrix. The effect of the structure of titanium-bearing clusters on the leachability of glasses, the effect of the second coordination sphere on the coordination of the central cation (Ti⁴⁺), and the propensity of experimental glass coatings to opacification are registered.
