Electron transport in direct methanol fuel cells

A three-dimensional (3D), two-phase, isothermal model of direct methanol fuel cells (DMFCs) was employed to investigate effects of electron transport through the backing layer and the land in bipolar plates. It was found that the electronic resistance of the backing layer, affected by backing layer electronic conductivity, backing layer thickness and flow channel width, played a relatively important role in determining the current density distribution and cell performance. In order to ignore the electron transport effect on the average current density, the minimum electronic conductivity of the backing layer has to be 1000 S m⁻¹, with the relative error in the average current density less than 5%, under the given conditions.

Image super-resolution based on multi-space sparse representation

Sparse representation provides a new method of generating a super-resolution image from a single low resolution input image. An over-complete base for sparse representation is an essential part of such methods. However, discovering the over-complete base with efficient representation from a large amount of image patches is a difficult problem. In this paper, we propose a super-resolution construction based on multi-space sparse representation to efficiently solve the problem. In the representation, image patches are decomposed into a structure component and a texture component represented by the over-complete bases of their own spaces so that their high-level features can be captured by the bases. In the implementation, a prior knowledge about low resolution images generation is combined to the typical base construction for high construction quality. Experiment results demonstrate that the proposed method significantly improves the PSNR, SSIM and visual quality of reconstructed high-resolution image.     

Prediction-based realistic 3D model compression

The benefit of using the geometry image to represent an arbitrary 3D mesh is that the 3D mesh can be re-sampled as a completely regular structure and coded efficiently by common image compression methods. For geometry image-based 3D mesh compression, we need to code the normal-map images while coding geometry images to improve the subjective quality and realistic effects of the reconstructed model. In traditional methods, a geometry image and a normal-map image are coded independently. However a strong correlation exists between these two kinds of images, because both of them are generated from the same 3D mesh and share the same parameterization. In this paper we propose a predictive coding framework, in which the normal-map image is predicted based on the geometric correlation between them. Additionally we utilize the strong geometric correlation among three components of normal-map image to improve the predicting accuracy. The experimental results show the proposed coding framework improves the coding efficiency of normal-map image, meanwhile the realistic effect of a 3D mesh is significantly enhanced.

东北地区冬季气温对海温异常响应的研究

利用HadISST OI海温和中国东北地区92站逐日气温资料,使用广义平衡反馈分析方法(GEFA)结合EOF分析方法(GEFA-EOF)研究了近50 a中国东北地区冬季气温对海表温度异常(SSTA)的响应.结果表明:对于热带和北半球中纬度5个海盆来说,东北地区冬季气温异常与同期热带大西洋和北大西洋海温异常有密切关系,与其他海盆关系不显著;热带大西洋的"正—负—正"三极型模态(TA3)以及北大西洋纬向上"正—负—正"三极型模态(NA3)分别对东北地区冬季气温的异常偏低和偏高有显著的强迫作用,且对北部地区的强迫作用大于南部地区.热带大西洋和北大西洋对东北地区冬季气温异常影响的可能途径为:热带大西洋TA3模态通过在北半球激发的"正—负—正"的遥相关波列,致使东亚大槽移至贝加尔湖地区,有利于极地冷空气南下至东北地区,导致该地区的冷冬;北大西洋的"正—负—正"三极型模态(NA3)直接响应使得东亚大槽减弱消失,极地冷空气南下受阻,导致该地区冬季气温异常偏高.
