Surface Actuation of Lightweight Mirrors with Shape Memory Alloy

The ability to create lightweight mirrors that can maintain surface accuracy is a major technical challenge for future space telescopes. Processing-induced errors and surface errors due to temperature excursions and gravity sag (zero gravity in space) make it impossible to correct the surface of thin mirror face-sheets by conventional point actuators. The challenges are compounded by the requirements for mirrors to have adequate stiffness for pointing accuracy. An experimental and analytical study was conducted to explore the feasibility of correcting the shape of lightweight (≈1 kg/m2) mirrors using a “Nitinol” (nickel-titanium) shape memory alloy (SMA). Shape memory alloys are increasingly used as smart devices in aerospace applications. Their primary advantage over other smart materials (i.e., piezo-ceramics and piezo-polymers) is in their ability to undergo large strains and displacements and thus enable the development of smart mechanisms. Active shape correction is the only means of mitigating heat and zero-gravity-induced distortions in space-based optical imaging systems. The repeatability and reliability of a possible actuation system based on properties of the SMA wires were studied by testing the stress-strain and stress recovery behavior under controlled conditions. Embedded SMA wires were then used to actuate a composite beam, and the movement induced by actuation was monitored with the Moiré interferometry method.     

Frequency characteristics of stiffness and damping effect of ferro fluid bearing

Damping characteristics and frequency characteristics of ferro fluid bearing (FFB) spindles were measured using a high-frequency vibration base driven by a piezo actuator. Using the high-frequency vibration base, high-frequency excitation was added to ferro fluid bearing spindles mounted on the vibration base, and it was proved that ferro fluid bearing spindles have effective damping. And the damping effect became larger with higher spindle rotational speed. Also we have measured spindle runout of a ferro fluid bearing spindle using a lock-in amplifier to increase S/N ratio and succeeded to measure nano meter order displacements.     

基于ABAQUS软件的微米级金属材料性能研究

为工程实践中迫切需要解决微米和亚微米量级的设计与制造问题,文章中运用MSG塑性理论利用Abaqus软件对铝合金的强度及均匀延伸率进行了比较系统的研究;运用有限单元法分析了MSG应变梯度本构方程和经典的弹塑性本构方程对不同晶粒尺寸的铝合金的应力应变关系;模拟不同晶粒尺寸的铝合金的强度及均匀延伸率。结果表明随着晶粒尺寸的减小,屈服强度、应变硬化明显增加,延伸率却往往越小。对于该问题的研究探索,将是解决材料强度与均匀伸长率这对矛盾体的问题关键,同时,为科研工作者提供了新方法和新途径。     

When viewing variations in paintings by Mondrian, aesthetic preferences correlate with pupil size.

Observers consciously prefer Mondrian's paintings in their original orientation compared with a rotated position—the “oblique effect” (Latto, Brain, & Kelly, 2000). However, this finding's premise, that all vertical–horizontal orientations of the thick black lines in Mondrian's oeuvre are preferred, overlooks the fact that the overall balance of these images is also altered when they are reoriented. Thus, balance may regulate the oblique effect, which might influence conscious aesthetic preferences. To address this issue, we explore Hess's (1965, 1972) claim that observers will unconsciously increase their pupil diameter to pleasing images and constrict it to unpleasant images. We overcame Hess's methodological limitation of not keeping his images' luminances and contrast constant across conditions by presenting eight Mondrian paintings (1921–1944) to 30 observers on a CRT for 20 s each in either their original or seven rotated positions. Simultaneously, we measured their pupil size while asking them to report how (dis)pleasing they found each image. We found both evidence for the oblique effect (where image rotation hampers preference) and a correlation between this consciously reported aesthetic preference and unconsciously derived pupil size.

放射性同位素XRF技术中一种与“特散比”法等效的新方法

在一定的条件下,待测元素特征X射线和康普顿散射强度比值,与待测元素特征X射线强度和带吸收滤片所测量的强度比值之间有着简单的双曲函数关系。利用这一函数关系,很容易在单道携带式放射性同位素X射线荧光分析仪上实现“特散比”法改善基体效应。用这种方法所得到的分析结果和用“特散比”法得到的分析结果,二者吻合很好,而且不需要增加任何设备,节省了测量时间和成本。已经测量了几种类型的锡矿样品和某些铜矿样品。

辐射和热同时作用对膨润土物理化学性质和微观结构影响的初步研究北大核心CSCD

为了研究γ辐射和热同时作用对膨润土的影响,以高庙子改性钠基膨润土为研究对象,开展了90℃热作用下、不同剂量率和不同累积剂量的γ辐射老化试验。结果表明:γ辐射和90℃热同时作用引起了膨润土物理化学性质和微观结构的变化。在老化作用后,膨润土的吸水率、pH值、阳离子交换容量、层荷以及蒙脱石001晶面方向的微晶尺寸均减小,比参考样分别降低了(最大减幅)18.4%、7.8%、3.4%、2.9%和15.6%,且表现出剂量率效应;老化作用对膨润土的矿物成分及含量影响较小。在高放废物地质处置的工程屏障设计和安全评价中,应考虑膨润土性质变化的影响因素。
