Abstract:Cooling field dependence of exchange anisotropy was investigated in ferromagnetic(FM)/antiferromagnetic(AFM) bilayers with antiferromagnetic interface coupling. It shows that the exchange bias HE can change from negative to positive with increasing cooling field HCF and coercivity HC acquires a maximum near crossover of HE. Especially, effect of FM and AFM thickness on exchange anisotropy is discussed in detail. Both negative (or positive) HE and HC always decrease with increasing of FM thickness tFM, which shows good agreement with experimental observation. It demonstrates interfacial nature of the exchange anisotropy. However, AFM thickness tAFM dependence of exchange anisotropy is relatively complex. In the case of positive HE, with increasing of tAFM, HE increases and HC decreases. But, in the case of negative HE, HE decreases and HC increases with increasing tAFM.

Abstract:A particle filter tracking algorithm based on multi-feature clustering is proposed. To address the issues such as the diversity of target features, the difference between methods of feature distribution description, and the arbitrariness of feature spatial structure, the multi-features representation of target model is unified into a clustering computing framework. The mean shift based feature space analysis approach is employed to adaptively calculate the clusters in any arbitrarily structured feature space. Based on the clusters, a target probability density estimation method, which is efficient and accurate, is proposed to represent the target model. The distance between the reference target and the candidate is calculated by the similarity measure of kernel density estimation, and is taken as important information for observation in particle filter system. To efficiently enhance the utilization rate of particles, an improved particle propagation model is presented. The object tracking experiments are performed on many real image sequences by using the LUV color features and the LBP (local binary pattern) texture features. Experiment results show that the proposed algorithm can obtain high tracking accuracy and strong robustness, meet real-time demand, and provide better tracking performance comparing with other typical algorithms.

Abstract:A series of double-doped La1.85-1.5xSr 0.15+1.5xCu1-xMnxO 4 (0≤x≤0.2) samples were synthesized by the solid-state reaction method. The structural, transport and magnetic properties were studied. The superconductivity can even survive till Mn doping level to x = 0.15. It is noteworthy that the sample with x = 0.06 undergoes two superconducting transitions in the M-T curves. It is suggested that the Cu-O-Cu pdσ hybridization interaction is weakened by the superexchange interaction between the doped Mn ions and the O ions in the Cu-O-Cu paths neighboring Mn, which leads to the suppression of superconductivity. © 2011 Elsevier B.V.

Abstract:In order to investigate the resistance characteristics of flap gate, the experimental and numerical simulation studies of resistance loss of flap gate were performed. Outlet circulation of the pump has great influence on resistance loss of flap gate, so the resistance loss and the square value of flow do not show the proportional relationship. In the conditions of the same flow, efficiency decreased value of pump system was negative correlated with the open angle of flap gate. On the basis of numerical simulation, flow patterns of the outlet were analyzed with and without flap gate under designed operating condition. The resistance loss of flap gate was predicted. A good agreement was achieved between the predicted data and the experimental data under designed operating condition.

Abstract:The operating region of axial-flow pumps is greatly reduced due to the existence of unstable operating range at low flow-rate condition. The energy performance of an axial-flow pump was measured in detail, and head-flow curve with bi-saddle was obtained. Particle image velocimetry (PIV) technology was used to measure the two-dimensional flow fields at the inlet axial plane under the flow rate of 0.73Qd, 0.55Qd, 0.43Qd and 0.33Qd. The experiment results show that backflow exists at the impeller inlet close to the wall, and the backflow zone increases with the decreasing of flow rate. With the decreasing of the flow rate, the turbulence intensity obviously increases, the turbulence intensity of axial velocity is higher than one of radius velocity and the turbulence intensity near the case wall is much higher close to the hub. The flow at the inlet wall evolutes from axial direction to circumferential direction can be seen clearly by the silk lines. The experimental results indicate that the lower performance of axial flow pump at the low flow rate condition is due to the unstable flow at the inlet impeller. This provides a reference for further improvement of axial-flow pumps performance at low flow rate condition.

Abstract:Hexadecane is one of the main chemical compounds in Cooking Oil Fume Condensates (COFCs), which has been proved to influence the vegetative growth of Salvinia natans (L.) All. significantly. Its effects on the growth of S. natans were studied by using static toxicity testing method in this paper. The results showed that relative growth rate (RGR), leaves, buds and stems of S. natans were inhibited significantly when exposed to higher concentrations. Hexadecane could accelerate the leaves of S. natans becoming yellow or decomposed. Biomass went down with the increase of hexadecane concentrations. The LC50 on day 4 and day 12 after treatment were 275 mg/L and 244 mg/L, respectively. Hexadecane had no effect on the pH value and conductivity of the cultivation medium. It can be concluded that hexadecane would significantly affect the vegetative growth of S. natans., and S. natans is sensitive to hexadecane that might be useful as an indicator of hexadecane pollution in freshwater.

Abstract:Brominated flame retardant (BFR), which containing in printed circuit boards (WPCBs), brings a series of environmental and health problems. Hydrothermal technology was applied to decompose brominated epoxy resin in WPCBs at subcritical or supercritical water conditions. The brominated epoxy resin was decomposed into oil and the environmental influence of BFR was eliminated. The experiment was carried out in a 5.7 ml tube reactor and heated by a salt-bath. The variation of degradation rate of brominated epoxy resin with reaction temperature, time and additives were studied. The compositions of liquid products were analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). When reaction temperature exceeded 300 °C, retention time stayed over 30 min and alkaline additive existed, more than 80% brominated epoxy resin could be mainly decomposed into phenol, which can be used as chemical material. Two different hydrothermal decomposition pathways were discussed according to the characterization of products. The results indicated that brominated epoxy resin in WPCBs could be handled effectively by hydrothermal decomposition. © 2011 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
