This paper presents self-calibrated interferometric-intensity-based optical fiber sensors, which combine for the first time interferometry and intensity-based devices into a single sensor system. The involves an extrinsic Fabry-Perot (FP) interferometric cavity. broadband light returned from FP cavity is split two channels in such way that one channel has coherence length much longer than doubled air-gap separation so generates effective interference, while other short no interference takes...

Abstract The Orowan‐Petch relation is a famous model to describe the strength of polycrystalline ceramics covering wide range grain sizes. However, it becomes difficult explain trend when size decreases sub‐microscale or nanoscale. This because some microstructural parameters (such as size, boundary fracture energy, and defects) vary with different processing technologies, their coupling effects on mechanical properties are still unclear. In this study, finite element method (FEM) was...

Compared to straight fiber path laminates, variable-angle tow (VAT) laminates are known redistribute the in-plane stress resultants for improving structural buckling response. The VAT can also be used improve free vibration response by tailoring elastic stiffness. This paper studies prestressed of a stiffened, laminated plate under uniform end shortening. Because there both spatially dependent stiffener and orientations plate, separate modeling stiffeners is considered. method avoids placing...

Uniaxial trackers are widely employed as the frame for solar photovoltaic (PV) panel installation. However, when used in sloping terrain scenarios such mountain and hill regions, it is essential to apply a solar-tracking strategy with factors considered, eliminate shading effects between arrays reduce electricity production loss due changes. Based on uniaxial tracker of PV farm located Ningxia, this study established by integrating spatial projection model dynamic shadow assessment method....

To meet the application requirements of neutron detectors, a novel large-area microchannel plate photomultiplier tube with gate function (G-MCP-PMT) was developed in this study. A kind regular hexagonal mesh electrode as gated designed to achieve excellent gating functions for target pulse signals. The photoelectron transmittances different sizes and voltages were studied via numerical simulations. increase effective detection area photocathode, an electrostatic-focusing G-MCP-PMT. By...

In order to further improve the comprehensive mechanical properties of as‐rolled SiC/7075Al composites, microstructure and composites are modified by pulse current‐assisted treatment (PCAT). The results show that current acts on interior material in a unique way, reducing nucleation barrier precipitated phase. Two nano‐scale phases MgZn 2 (η′) Mg Si (β′) formed inside composite. fine precipitates play significant role strengthening dislocation dispersion material, which makes obtain...

Porous carbon fiber materials designed for hydrogen storage and dioxide capture under ambient pressure have garnered significant research interest due to their safety, high efficiency, simplicity. However, traditional activation processes compromise the nanopore microenvironment composed of surface chemical structure, multistage mechanical self-supporting properties porous excessive pore-making etching action, hindering practical application. To address this, a flexible cloth (POACF-P30-900)...

This paper presents results from thermal buckling analysis and optimization of stiffened composite panels with variable angle tow (VAT) laminates curvilinear stiffeners. Considering the meshing difficulties for curvilinearly VAT due to both spatially dependent fiber path orientation arbitrarily shaped stiffeners in traditional finite element analysis, present work models plate separately without need place nodes along stiffener/plate stiffener/stiffener interfaces. The displacement...
