The stress-strain curve is shown to separate into smooth, elastic branches followed by a subsequent plastic event. Mode analysis shows that the lowest-frequency vibrational mode is more localized, and eigenvalues and participation ratios of low- frequency modes exhibit similar power-law behavior as the system approaches plastic instability, indicating that the nature of plastic events in the granular system is also a saddle node bifurcation. The analysis of projection and spatial structure shows that over 75% contributions to the non-affine displacement field at a plastic instability come from the lowest-frequency mode, and the lowest-frequency mode is strongly spatially correlated with local plastic rearrangements, inferring that the lowest-frequency mode could be used as a predictor for future plastic rearrangements in the disordered system jammed marginally.展开更多

The low-frequency absorption spectra and refractive indices were obtained in the range of 0.2 THz to 2.5 THz （7 cm-1 to 83 cm-1）. These derivatives with different substituents present distinct features, which suggests that THz spectroscopy is sensitive to different structures and components of these chemicals. The density functional theory was employed to calculate the low-frequency vibrational properties of indole-3-carboxylic acid and indole-3-propionic acid based on their crystal structures, and the intermolecular interactions were involved. Meanwhile, the temperature dependence of the spectra agreed with the calculated results. The quantitative analysis of a ternary mixture was studied by taking the THz fingerprints into account, and the results demonstrate THz spectroscopy has great potential for the practical applications in biochemistry and pharmaceutics.展开更多

We design a honeycomb phononic crystal, which is assembled by using a chemigum plate and a steel column, calculate the bandgaps of the phononic crystal, and analyze the vibration modes. In the experiment, we attach a same-sized rubber plate and a phononic crystal to a steel plate separately in order to compare their vibration reduction performances. We use 8×8 unit cells as a complete phononic crystal plate to imitate an infinite period structure and choose a string suspension arrangement to support the experiment. The results show that the honeycomb phononic crystal can reduce the vibrating plate magnitude by up to 60 dB in a frequency range of 600 Hz–900 Hz, while the rubber plate can reduce only about 20 dB. In addition, we study the effect of the thickness of plate and the height and the radius of the column in order to choose the most superior parameters to achieve low frequency and wide bandgap.展开更多

This MA consists of a periodic arrangement of a cave-disk resonator （CDR）, square resistive film （RF）, and metal ground plane （GP） （a 0.8 mm-thick FR-4 dielectric spacer is sandwiched in between the CDR and RF, and another 1.2-mm thick FR-4 dielectric spacer is inserted in between the RF and GP）. The simulated results based on finite integration technology （FIT） indicate that the absorption of the MA is greater than 90% and almost perfectly impedance- matched to the free space in the whole frequency range of 1 GHz–7 GHz. The simulated absorptions under the conditions of different polarization and incident angles indicate that this composite structure absorber is polarization-insensitive and wide-angled. Furthermore, the distribution of the power loss density indicates that the wideband absorptivity is mainly from the composite electromagnetic loss of the CDR and RF. This design provides an effective and feasible way to construct a low-frequency wideband absorber.展开更多

文摘Acoustic scattering modulation caused by an undulating sea surface on the space-time dimension seriously affects underwater detection and target recognition.Herein,underwater acoustic scattering modulation from a moving rough sea surface is studied based on integral equation and parabolic equation.And with the principles of grating and constructive interference,the mechanism of this acoustic scattering modulation is explained.The periodicity of the interference of moving rough sea surface will lead to the interference of the scattering field at a series of discrete angles,which will form comb-like and frequency-shift characteristics on the intensity and the frequency spectrum of the acoustic scattering field,respectively,which is a high-order Bragg scattering phenomenon.Unlike the conventional Doppler effect,the frequency shifts of the Bragg scattering phenomenon are multiples of the undulating sea surface frequency and are independent of the incident sound wave frequency.Therefore,even if a low-frequency underwater acoustic field is incident,it will produce obvious frequency shifts.Moreover,under the action of ideal sinusoidal waves,swells,fully grown wind waves,unsteady wind waves,or mixed waves,different moving rough sea surfaces create different acoustic scattering processes and possess different frequency shift characteristics.For the swell wave,which tends to be a single harmonic wave,the moving rough sea surface produces more obvious high-order scattering and frequency shifts.The same phenomena are observed on the sea surface under fully grown wind waves,however,the frequency shift slightly offsets the multiple peak frequencies of the wind wave spectrum.Comparing with the swell and fully-grown wind waves,the acoustic scattering and frequency shift are not obvious for the sea surface under unsteady wind waves.

文摘In this paper,a control scheme based on current optimization is proposed for dual three-phase permanent-magnet synchronous motor(DTP-PMSM)drive to reduce the low-frequency temperature swing.The reduction of temperature swing can be equivalent to reducing maximum instantaneous phase copper loss in this paper.First,a two-level optimization aiming at minimizing maximum instantaneous phase copper loss at each electrical angle is proposed.Then,the optimization is transformed to a singlelevel optimization by introducing the auxiliary variable for easy solving.Considering that singleobjective optimization trades a great total copper loss for a small reduction of maximum phase copper loss,the optimization considering both instantaneous total copper loss and maximum phase copper loss is proposed,which has the same performance of temperature swing reduction but with lower total loss.In this way,the proposed control scheme can reduce maximum junction temperature by 11%.Both simulation and experimental results are presented to prove the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed control scheme for low-frequency temperature swing reduction.

文摘A non-contact low-frequency(LF)method of diagnosing the plasma surrounding a scaled model in a shock tube is proposed.This method utilizes the phase shift occurring after the transmission of an LF alternating magnetic field through the plasma to directly measure the ratio of the plasma loop average electron density to collision frequency.An equivalent circuit model is used to analyze the relationship of the phase shift of the magnetic field component of LF electromagnetic waves with the plasma electron density and collision frequency.The applicable range of the LF method on a given plasma scale is analyzed.The upper diagnostic limit for the ratio of the electron density(unit:m^(-3))to collision frequency(unit:Hz)exceeds 1×10^(11),enabling an electron density to exceed 1×10^(20)m^(-3)and a collision frequency to be less than 1 GHz.In this work,the feasibility of using the LF phase shift to implement the plasma diagnosis is also assessed.Diagnosis experiments on shock tube equipment are conducted by using both the electrostatic probe method and LF method.By comparing the diagnostic results of the two methods,the inversion results are relatively consistent with each other,thereby preliminarily verifying the feasibility of the LF method.The ratio of the electron density to the collision frequency has a relatively uniform distribution during the plasma stabilization.The LF diagnostic path is a loop around the model,which is suitable for diagnosing the plasma that surrounds the model.Finally,the causes of diagnostic discrepancy between the two methods are analyzed.The proposed method provides a new avenue for diagnosing high-density enveloping plasma.

文摘Unique nanofoams consisting of interweaved ultrathin graphene confining Zn–N–C dipoles (ZnNG) are constructed via calcination of Zn-coordinated precursor.Due to the introduction of local polar Zn–N–C configurations,with hypersensitivity for mechanical stress,the piezoelectricity is created on the nonpiezoelectric graphene,and the hierarchical ZnNG exhibits obvious piezocatalytic activity of water splitting for H_(2) production even under mild agitation.The corresponding rate of H_(2) production is about 14.65 μmol g^(-1)h^(-1).It triggers a breakthrough in piezocatalytic H_(2) evolution under low-frequency vibration,and takes a significant step forward for piezocatalysis towards practical applications.Furthermore,the presented concept of confining atomic polar configuration for engineering piezoelectricity would open up new horizon for constructing new-type piezoelectrics based on both piezoelectric and nonpiezoelectric materials.

文摘Several indole derivatives with different ＇3-＇ substituents have been investigated by terahertz （THz） time-domain spectroscopy. The low-frequency absorption spectra and refractive indices were obtained in the range of 0.2 THz to 2.5 THz （7 cm-1 to 83 cm-1）. These derivatives with different substituents present distinct features, which suggests that THz spectroscopy is sensitive to different structures and components of these chemicals. The density functional theory was employed to calculate the low-frequency vibrational properties of indole-3-carboxylic acid and indole-3-propionic acid based on their crystal structures, and the intermolecular interactions were involved. Meanwhile, the temperature dependence of the spectra agreed with the calculated results. The quantitative analysis of a ternary mixture was studied by taking the THz fingerprints into account, and the results demonstrate THz spectroscopy has great potential for the practical applications in biochemistry and pharmaceutics.

文摘The honeycomb phononic crystal displays good performance in reducing vibration, especially at low frequency, but there are few corresponding experiments involving this kind of phononic crystal and the influence of geometric parameters on the bandgap is unclear. We design a honeycomb phononic crystal, which is assembled by using a chemigum plate and a steel column, calculate the bandgaps of the phononic crystal, and analyze the vibration modes. In the experiment, we attach a same-sized rubber plate and a phononic crystal to a steel plate separately in order to compare their vibration reduction performances. We use 8×8 unit cells as a complete phononic crystal plate to imitate an infinite period structure and choose a string suspension arrangement to support the experiment. The results show that the honeycomb phononic crystal can reduce the vibrating plate magnitude by up to 60 dB in a frequency range of 600 Hz–900 Hz, while the rubber plate can reduce only about 20 dB. In addition, we study the effect of the thickness of plate and the height and the radius of the column in order to choose the most superior parameters to achieve low frequency and wide bandgap.

文摘High-resolution terahertz absorption and Raman spectra of glutamine in the frequency region 0.2 THz-2.8 THz are obtained by using THz time domain spectroscopy and low-frequency Raman spectroscopy. Based on the experimental and the computational results, the vibration modes corresponding to the terahertz absorption and Raman scatting peaks are assigned and further verified by the theoretical calculations. Spectral investigation of the periodic structure of glutamine based on the sophisticated hybrid density functional B3LYP indicates that the vibrational modes come mainly from the inter-molecular hydrogen bond in this frequency region.

文摘Within the SILVARSTAR project,a user-friendly frequency-based hybrid prediction tool has been developed to assess the environmental impact of railway-induced vibration.This tool is integrated in existing noise mapping software.Following modern vibration standards and guidelines,the vibration velocity level in a building in each frequency band is expressed as the sum of a force density(source term),line source transfer mobility(propagation term)and building correction factor(receiver term).A hybrid approach is used that allows for a combination of experimental data and numerical predictions,providing increased flexibility and applicability.The train and track properties can be selected from a database or entered as numerical values.The user can select soil impedance and transfer functions from a database,pre-computed for a wide range of parameters with state-of-the-art models.An experimental database of force densities,transfer functions,free field vibration and input parameters is also provided.The building response is estimated by means of building correction factors.Assumptions within the modelling approach are made to reduce computation time but these can influence prediction accuracy;this is quantified for the case of a nominal intercity train running at different speeds on a ballasted track supported by homogeneous soil of varying stiffness.The paper focuses on the influence of these parameters on the compliance of the track–soil system and the free field response.We also demonstrate the use and discuss the validation of the vibration prediction tool for the case of a high-speed train running on a ballasted track in Lincent(Belgium).

文摘Cryogenic ion traps offer substantial advantages over their room-temperature counterparts,particularly in terms of stable ion confinement and cooling.However,this technological advancement has introduced a significant challenge,namely the generation of additional vibrational noise.This noise is pronounced during the compression and expansion phases of the Gifford–McMahon cycle refrigerator and stems from the mechanical operation of the cold head.The residual vibrational noise can modulate the Rabi oscillation frequency,thereby compromising the fidelity of the quantum logic gate.In this study,we quantitatively assess the impact of residual vibrational noise and introduce an innovative strategy for its mitigation.This strategy was designed to reduce superimposed potential fluctuations within a cryogenic surface electrode ion trap.The measured residual vibrational noise was used for real-time feedback control.Addressing the inverse determination of the compensating potential for a stable superimposed trapping potential is an inherently ill-posed problem considering known measurement noise results.By applying quadratic programming,we numerically calculated the optimal time series for the compensation potential.An ensemble of these compensation voltages was applied in real time to the static compensation electrodes.Although this method is in the theoretical stage,we believe that it can effectively suppress the translation induced by vibrational noise and foster the creation of a stable superimposed harmonic potential.The deployment of this technique is expected to substantially improve the accuracy of quantum operations,thereby fueling the evolution of quantum technologies.

文摘Blades are important parts of rotating machinery such as marine gas turbines and wind turbines,which are exposed to harsh environments during mechanical operations,including centrifugal loads,aerodynamic forces,or high temperatures.These demanding working conditions considerably influence the dynamic performance of blades.Therefore,because of the challenges posed by blades in complex working environments,in-depth research and optimization are necessary to ensure that blades can operate safely and efficiently,thus guaranteeing the reliability and performance of mechanical systems.Focusing on the vibration analysis of blades in rotating machinery,this paper conducts a comprehensive literature review on the research advancements in vibration modeling and structural optimization of blades under complex operational conditions.First,the paper outlines the development of several modeling theories for rotating blades,including one-dimensional beam theory,two-dimensional plate-shell theory,and three-dimensional solid theory.Second,the research progress in the vibrational analysis of blades under aerodynamic loads,thermal environments,and crack factors is separately discussed.Finally,the developments in rotating blade structural optimization are presented from material optimization and shape optimization perspectives.The methodology and theory of analyzing and optimizing blade vibration characteristics under multifactorial operating conditions are comprehensively outlined,aiming to assist future researchers in proposing more effective and practical approaches for the vibration analysis and optimization of blades.

文摘To explore the relationship between dynamic characteristics and wake patterns,numerical simulations were conducted on three equal-diameter cylinders arranged in an equilateral triangle.The simulations varied reduced velocities and gap spacing to observe flow-induced vibrations(FIVs).The immersed boundary–lattice Boltzmann flux solver(IB–LBFS)was applied as a numerical solution method,allowing for straightforward application on a simple Cartesian mesh.The accuracy and rationality of this method have been verified through comparisons with previous numerical results,including studies on flow past three stationary circular cylinders arranged in a similar pattern and vortex-induced vibrations of a single cylinder across different reduced velocities.When examining the FIVs of three cylinders,numerical simulations were carried out across a range of reduced velocities(3.0≤Ur≤13.0)and gap spacing(L=3D,4D,and 5D).The observed vibration response included several regimes:the desynchronization regime,the initial branch,and the lower branch.Notably,the transverse amplitude peaked,and a double vortex street formed in the wake when the reduced velocity reached the lower branch.This arrangement of three cylinders proved advantageous for energy capture as the upstream cylinder’s vibration response mirrored that of an isolated cylinder,while the response of each downstream cylinder was significantly enhanced.Compared to a single cylinder,the vibration and flow characteristics of this system are markedly more complex.The maximum transverse amplitudes of the downstream cylinders are nearly identical and exceed those observed in a single-cylinder set-up.Depending on the gap spacing,the flow pattern varied:it was in-phase for L=3D,antiphase for L=4D,and exhibited vortex shedding for L=5D.The wake configuration mainly featured double vortex streets for L=3D and evolved into two pairs of double vortex streets for L=5D.Consequently,it well illustrates the coupling mechanism that dynamics characteristics and wake vortex change with gap spacing and reduced velocities.

文摘This study presents a significant advancement in the vibration analysis of functionally graded sandwich plates with auxetic cores by introducing a general viscoelastic foundation model that more accurately reflects the complex interactions between the plate and the foundation.The novelty of this study is that the proposed viscoelastic foundation model incorporates elastic and damping effects in both the Winkler and Pasternak layers.To develop the theoretical framework for this analysis,the higher-order shear deformation theory is employed,while Hamilton's principle is used to derive the governing equations of motion.The closed-form solution is used to determine the damped vibration behaviors of the sandwich plates.The precision and robustness of the proposed mathematical model are validated through several comparison studies with existing numerical results.A detailed parametric study is conducted to investigate the influence of various parameters,including the elastic and damping coefficients of the foundation,the material gradation,and the properties of the auxetic core on the vibration behavior of the plates.The numerical results provide new insights into the vibration characteristics of sandwich plates with auxetic cores resting on viscoelastic foundation,highlighting the significant role of the two damping coefficients and auxetic cores in the visco-vibration behavior of the plates.
文摘Recent advancements in additive manufacturing(AM)have revolutionized the design and production of complex engineering microstructures.Despite these advancements,their mathematical modeling and computational analysis remain significant challenges.This research aims to develop an effective computational method for analyzing the free vibration of functionally graded(FG)microplates under high temperatures while resting on a Pasternak foundation(PF).This formulation leverages a new thirdorder shear deformation theory(new TSDT)for improved accuracy without requiring shear correction factors.Additionally,the modified couple stress theory(MCST)is incorporated to account for sizedependent effects in microplates.The PF is characterized by two parameters including spring stiffness(k_(w))and shear layer stiffness(k_(s)).To validate the proposed method,the results obtained are compared with those of the existing literature.Furthermore,numerical examples explore the influence of various factors on the high-temperature free vibration of FG microplates.These factors include the length scale parameter(l),geometric dimensions,material properties,and the presence of the elastic foundation.The findings significantly enhance our comprehension of the free vibration of FG microplates in high thermal environments.In addition,the findings significantly enhance our comprehension of the free vibration of FG microplates in high thermal environments.In addition,the results of this research will have great potential in military and defense applications such as components of submarines,fighter aircraft,and missiles.

文摘A low-frequency wideband, polarization-insensitive and wide-angle metamaterial absorber （MA） is designed, simulated and analyzed. This MA consists of a periodic arrangement of a cave-disk resonator （CDR）, square resistive film （RF）, and metal ground plane （GP） （a 0.8 mm-thick FR-4 dielectric spacer is sandwiched in between the CDR and RF, and another 1.2-mm thick FR-4 dielectric spacer is inserted in between the RF and GP）. The simulated results based on finite integration technology （FIT） indicate that the absorption of the MA is greater than 90% and almost perfectly impedance- matched to the free space in the whole frequency range of 1 GHz–7 GHz. The simulated absorptions under the conditions of different polarization and incident angles indicate that this composite structure absorber is polarization-insensitive and wide-angled. Furthermore, the distribution of the power loss density indicates that the wideband absorptivity is mainly from the composite electromagnetic loss of the CDR and RF. This design provides an effective and feasible way to construct a low-frequency wideband absorber.
