    If a face image is interfered by redundant information, the accuracy of the extracted effective feature points from the image is not high enough. To solve this problem, a face feature point detection algorithm based on a cascade convolutional neural network is proposed in this paper. The algorithm reads in information of an original image via the input-function first, then extracts local features of the image through neurons in a receptive domain, and inputs all local features into a pooling domain. After doing that, the algorithm is able to average all captured local features stored in the pooling domain, and further do down-sampling to the pooling domain, and reduce the dimension of the convolution results, and finally output detection results of those feature points by virtual of iterative training. In this study, Python language is used to program the algorithm, and simulation experiments are carried out with the help of face data set. Simulation results show that the algorithm has a high recognition rate for face feature points.

    Taking a single-stage end-suction centrifugal pump as study object and assuring the inlet and outlet setting angle and diameter and as well as other parameters unchanged, five sets of pump models with different outlet width of impeller were designed respectively, their numerical simulation was carried out one after another and the influence of impeller outlet width on the performance and pressure fluctuation was analyzed. It was shown by the study result that with the increase of impeller outlet width, the lift and shaft power would increase to different extent, the efficiency curve would be hump shaped, indicating that there would be an optimum impeller outlet width to make the flow loss minimum; increasing the width of the impeller outlet, flow separation phenomenon in flow channel would be enhanced, blocking phenomenon there would decrease hydraulic loss would decrease thereby, indicating that an appropriate width of impeller outlet would be effective for reducing the energy loss of centrifugal pump. With progressive decrease of impeller outlet width, the shaft frequency peak would change obviously, assuming progressive increase trend, indicating that an excessive narrow impeller outlet width would easily lead to flow blocking in flow passage and hinder the development of the flow mode, At the same time, the impeller outlet width would also have a greater effect on pressure pulsation in centrifugal pump.

    Based on the sliding plane hypothesis of Coulomb’s earth pressure theory and the limit equilibrium theory, a modified formulation for active earth pressure is derived according to the relationship between limited soils’ width b 0 (a distance between a supporting structure and an existing building) and triangular sliding wedge’s width b. Assumptions of formulation are that the limited soil is in horizontal and the support structure is in vertical. In addition, the formulation takes into account not only the adhesion between the supporting structure and soils but also the cohesion between the static soils and sliding soils. It is then analyzed that the impact of the external friction angle as well as the adhesion between the supporting structure and soils on the sliding soil mass’ cracking angle (failure angle of sliding soils) and active earth pressure. A viewpointabout generalized active earth pressure coefficient is also put forward in this paper. All results gaining from our calculated examples show that the formulation becomes more effective in practices. Evidently, taking the impact of the external friction angle into account in the formulation will reduce cost indeed.

    Aimed at the problem of five-face body machining center that the transmission chain was excessive long and unfavorable for improving the machining accuracy in the case of standing-to-lying change, a novel project of angle swing head for standing-to-lying change was proposed. In this project, the measure of transmission was dropped, where the angle swing head employed individual set of power supply for cutting power transmission and also for standing-to-lying change, and a simple set of power supply was used either for cutting power transmission or for standing-to-lying change, so that the transmission chain was contracted extremely. A three-dimensional mechanical structure model of the assembly of angle swing head, spindle and its key components was established with software SolidWorks. The software Romax was used to conduct the modelling of the driven system of the angle swing head, and the reliability of the driven system was analyzed under different working conditions. The result showed that under given operation conditions the design of the drive system would be reasonable and the operational reliability would meet the design requirements. To ensure rigidity and stability of the standing-to-lying change spindle of angle swing head, the modality analysis was carried out by using the ABAQUS. The result showed that the spindle would not resonate within the range of rated operating speed.

    Lithium-ion batteries are widely used in electric vehicles and various energy storage devices. In this paper, cyclic aging and thermal runaway experiments under different charge-discharge rates were carried out, and the effects of large-rate charging and discharging on the performance and thermal safety of single lithium-ion batteries were studied. The results showed that the actual capacity of single lithium-ion battery is attenuated under the large-rate charge-discharge cycle, and the degree of attenuation is positively relevant to the charge-discharge rate. With the charge-discharge rate increasing, the constant current ratio is stepwise attenuation, but the coulombic efficiency still maintains in the range of 99%-100%, indicating that the reversible performance of lithium-ion batteries is normal. With the increase of the magnification, the thermal runaway trigger time, explosion pressure and jet flame temperature first increase and then decrease. The average surface temperature of the battery during explosion is 655.8 ℃, which is close to the melting point of aluminum. The explosion injection powder products are mainly metal aluminum, graphite and lithium cobalt oxide.

    In order to clarify the effect of sample area on the load characteristics and film properties of micro-arc oxidation, four AZ31B magnesium alloy samples with different areas were treated by micro-arc oxidation in unipolar pulse power supply mode. In the treatment, the equivalent resistance and equivalent capacitance of the load are collected by a LCR tester, the voltage and current waveforms of the load are recorded by oscilloscope, and the load voltage waveform is fitted by using software MATLAB, so as to investigate the effect of sample area on the load characteristics in the process of micro-arc oxidation. Our results indicate that with the increase of treatment voltage, the equivalent capacitance of all loads decreases continuously, the equivalent resistance increases continuously, and the discharge time constant of the loads increases continuously as well. The increase of the equivalent resistance indicates that the thickness of the film increases with increase of the treatment voltage. In addition, with the increase of the treated area, the equivalent resistance of the loads decreases, the load capacitance increases, and the discharge time constant of the loads decreases either. This indicates that the growth of the film becomes slower with increase of the treated area, and the larger the treated area is, the closer the load waveform is to the square wave. Therefore, it is more practical for the unipolar pulses. The equivalent resistance of the loads can reflect the thickness of the film.

    Taking the solar heating system in an 117.07 m 2 northwest China as investigation object and the day of December 15 th as an example, it is concluded that the heat loss of heat storage tank occurs mainly during the natural cooling period, the total heat loss of the heat storage tank is 9.49 MJ when its daily total heat loss coefficient is 5.68 W/℃. Then the test data of other 11 typical days is chosen to carry out the fitting of several factors of influence on total heatloss coefficient and total heat loss of the heat storage tank. It is shown that the total heat loss of the heat storage tank will be influenced by the ambient temperature and outdoor wind speed, leading to the change of the temperature of the heat storage tank. Decrease of every 1 ℃ of average ambient temperature will increase the total heat loss of heat storage tank by 0.067 MJ and the increase of every 1 m/s of outdoor wind speed will increase the total heat loss of the heat storage tank by 0.042 MJ, The increase of temperature of 1 ℃ of heat storage tank will increase the total heat loss of heat storage tank by 0.068 MJ. The increase of the temperature of 1 ℃ of heat storage tank will increas the total heat loss of the heat storage tank by 1.641 MJ. Aimed at the analysis of heat loss of heat storage tank and the present situation of indoor thermal environment, it is presented that a suggestion on indoor location of heat storage tank can be taken into consideration to enhance the heat storage capacity of heat storage tank and improve the indoor comfortableness of the building.

    Using agricultural waste corncob as raw material, biochar with low cost and high performance was prepared by hydrothermal carbonization (HTC) at different temperatures. The biochar has mesoporous structure and abundant oxygen-containing functional groups on its surface, such as —OH, C ==O, C—O and so on. Methylene blue (MB) was used as model adsorbent to further study the adsorption properties of the biochar. Results from the study of adsorption kinetics show that the adsorption behavior is in accordance with the pseudo second-order kinetics model, and the biochar obtained under the hydrothermal condition of 225 ℃ has the maximum adsorption capacity (41.37 mg/g) and the maximum adsorption rate. The adsorption equilibrium data agree well with the Langmuir isotherm model, indicating that the adsorption of MB on biochar belongs to monolayer adsorption, and the interaction between oxygen-containing functional groups on the surface of the biochar and the MB molecule is helpful to the adsorption process.

    In order to predict accurately the energy performance of centrifugal pumps under different working conditions, their hydraulic loss models are established based on the existing theoretical and empirical formulas at home and abroad. The linear regression method is used to find out the functional relationship between the impeller inlet angle of attack and the impact loss, so that the impact loss formula is revised. Thereby, to verify the accuracy of this model in predicting the energy performance of centrifugal pumps under different working conditions, a centrifugal pump with a specific speed of 92.8 is selected to calculate the head, efficiency and shaft power at nine operating points, and the result is compared with that of experiment and analyzed. The results show that the prediction results of the head will be basically consistent with the test results. The error between the predicted head and the test head at nine operating points will be less than 5%. This shows that the hydraulic loss equation can be used to predict the energy performance of centrifugal pumps well under different working conditions.

    An analysis method for high-strength bolts of wind turbine tower flange was established by considering the influence of external load on fatigue damage. Firstly, the maximum load section was determined with the aid of the tower equivalent model according to the damage parameters of the stress state on the connection section. Secondly, the external load on any sector of the tower was obtained by Schmidt-Neuper algorithm. Afterwards, the fatigue damage distribution model of high-strength bolts was established and the relationship between the external load and the internal stress of high-strength bolts was explored based on the finite element model. Finally, the optimal bolt pretightening force was determined with comparing the fatigue cumulative damage values with different bolt pretightening forces by considering the influence of pretightening forces. The results show that the positions of the maximum fatigue cumulative damage of flange bolts were -4.17° and 175.87°, and the bolt pretightening force was the most suitable value when the bolt pretightening force ratio was 70%.

    Existent complex networks will usually be subject to random attacks and deliberate attacks, resulting in reduced reliability of complex network topologies. In order to solve the above-mentione problems, a new attack strategy is proposed based on graph entropy and incorporated with the betweenness centrality of nodes and the degree centrality of all their neighbor nodes, namely the betweenness and degree entropy (BE), which is used to identify important nodes in the network and protect them. Experimentally, the efficiency of attack strategies of three standard network models and three real networks is evaluated under condition of static attacks and dynamic attacks. By means of comparison, it is found that the betweenness and degree entropy will have higher attack efficiency than the traditional attack strategy.

    The numerical simulation of butt brazing process of Al/steel dissimilar metal sheet under different welding conditions was carried out by using finite element analysis software ANSYS. Two models are established for TIG arc heat source and cold source respectively. Comparative analyses of residual stress and deformation reveal that the argon quenching at low temperature in the process of welding can effectively reduce longitudinal residual stress and deformation in the weld, resulting in apparent reduction by 32.8% and 48.1%, respectively. In order to verify the validity and prove the accuracy of our finite element simulation results, a welding test of Al/steel dissimilar metal sheet was carried out. Through analytical comparisons of the predicted results of temperature field and stress field and with tested ones, it is verified the effectiveness of the numerical model. It has been shown that the residual stress and deformation in Al/steel sheet welds can be effectively controlled by argon quenching technology.

    Abstract242)      PDF(pc) (1124KB)(713)       Save
    In this paper, the design of dynamic output feedback controller in networked control systems is studied for a class of networked control systems with access constraints and time-varying delays. Considering that the media access constraint obeys Markov distribution and the upper bound of time-varying delay is less than one sampling period, the networked control system should be built into a kind of uncertain time-discrete Markov jump system in modeling of the system. According to the Lyapunov stability theory and the state augmentation method, the sufficient conditions for the asymptotic stability of the closed-loop networked control system are therefore given, and a dynamic output feedback controller may be designed to make the closed-loop system asymptotically stable. Finally, a numerical example is provided to demonstrate the correctness and effectiveness of the proposed modeling method.
