A two-dimensional finite element model is used to explore the fracture parameter in the tip region of stress corrosion crack (SCC) of AA6082 alloy. Based on the ABAQUS code, we investigate the effect of oxide film's yield stress on the Mises stress and equivalent plastic strain (PEEQ) in the crack tip. The results show that as the yield strength of oxide film increases, the Mises stress and PEEQ of base alloy in crack tip area both decrease, and the stress of oxide film in crack tip also reduces, but the strain increases. This is because the oxide film bears more load, so the load on the base alloy of the crack tip becomes smaller, resulting in a reduction in the stress and strain on the base.

Influences of annealing temperature on microstructure, electrical properties, stability, and film adhesion of Pt thin film resistors with Ti interlayer and PtxOy interlayer were investigated and compared. Pt thin films were deposited on Al2O3 substrates with Ti interlayer and PtxOy interlayer, respectively. Two resistors showed different microstructures after annealing. Pt/PtxOy film resistor owed more stable resistance value and larger temperature coefficient of resistance (TCR) than those of Pt/Ti film resistor. Annealed Pt/Ti film resistor exhibited poor stability than Pt/PtxOy film resistor and the stability became worse with increasing annealing temperature. In addition, the film adhesion of two resistors was discussed.

CoNiCrAl alloys are widely employed as a high temperature resistant material in thermal barrier coating (TBC) systems. In such materials, the adherence between the thermally grown oxide (TGO) Al2O3 scale and the alloy is strengthened by oxide pegs formed by dispersed oxide addition or the oxidation of doped reactive elements. In this study the addition of Ti as the reactive element to a CoNiCrAlY alloy has been addressed. We investigated the mutual effects between Ti and the oxide pegs in alloy samples that had been subjected to a cyclic oxidation process. The alloy with a higher Ti content exhibited a uniformly fine β-phase and fewer voids at the scale/alloy interface, the scale growth rate was lower for Ti-containing alloys. In addition, the formation and growth of oxide pegs led to an irregular distribution of Ti in the scale and at the scale/alloy interface, which resulted in local variations in the features of the scale, with fewer voids and a thinner scale at the sites that are far from the oxide pegs. Meanwhile, the incorporation of Ti to the Y-rich oxide led to an increase in the bonding strength between the peg core and the Al2O3 sheath.

The existing emulsified asphalt has the defect of adhesion to construction vehicle tires, which leads to the failure of interlayer adhesion. From the softening point of improving the evaporation residue of emulsified asphalt, Non-sticky wheel emulsified asphalt was prepared with different matrix asphalt, modifier and modifier dose. Combined with the standard viscosity, storage stability and evaporation residue of emulsified asphalt, the technical properties of Non-sticky wheel emulsified asphalt were analyzed. The viscosity wheel performance of Non-sticky wheel emulsified asphalt was tested by viscosity wheel performance test. Compared with ordinary emulsified asphalt and SBR modified emulsified asphalt sold in the market, its non-stick wheel effect is significant under the condition of 60°C, which has good engineering practical application value.

The compatibility of styrene-butadiene-styrene (SBS) with base asphalt is known to restrict the application of SBS modified asphalt. In this study, carbon nanotubes (CNT) were used to enhance the compatibility between SBS and base asphalt. The effect of CNTs on the compatibility of SBS modified asphalt was investigated by dynamic mechanics analysis (DMA), and the micro-mechanism of CNTs enhancing the compatibility of SBS modified asphalt was studied by using dissipative particle dynamics (DPD) simulation. The results show that CNTs can significantly improve the compatibility between SBS and base asphalt, and the microscopic mechanism is that CNTs can change the distribution morphology of SBS in base asphalt, making the distribution of SBS modified asphalt more uniform, which promotes the development of polymer-rich phase in SBS modified asphalt. This study can provide theoretical guidance for the practical application of SBS modified asphalt.

Compressed natural gas (CNG) has been widely used as an automotive fuel in china, which the service security of CNG storage well (CSW), the main storage equipment in Chinese filling station, is becoming more and more prominent. In order to analyze the stress of CSW and its influencing factors, the mechanical model of CSW + cement sheath + stratum (CCS) processed by both elastic mechanics and finite element method was studied in this work. Using the most common well of Φ177.8× 10.36mm as a calculation case to obtain the analytic solutions and numerical solutions of CCS. The results indicated that the analytic solutions and numerical solutions are very close with relative deviation less than 3%, which verified their reliability each other. The calculation case can prove that the stress of CSW reduced evidently due to the effect of well cementation, which equivalent to the value of circular and axial stress of CSW strengthens to 18% and 20%. And when increasing the elastic modulus of cement sheath, the stress of CSW decreased that the support and potentiation to CSW by cement sheath becomes stronger.

Measurement of a reaction between deuterium (hydrogen) gas and materials using a calorimeter which is calibrated by nitrogen will show erroneous excess heat power production due to the structure of the reaction chamber and the difference of thermal conductivity of the gases used in the calibration and triggering experiments, which leads to the energy generated in the chamber of the calorimeter has not been totally measured. The error is not obvious at low applied power, and it increases significantly with the increase of applied power. This insidious error is discussed by using a stable heat-flow (Seebeck) calorimeter and procedures to reduce error are put forward. And the authenticity of Rossi's patent is questioned.

In this study, advanced low melting point alloys (LMPA)/polymer composited wires for fused deposition modelling (FDM) processes were developed. The Polylactic Acid (PLA) powder was mixed with LMPA powder and multi walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTS). The liquid state of LMPA will not hinder the processability of polymer composites when the composites were extruded out as wires. Thus, the composited wires can be optimally fabricated with high stabilities as well as large quantities. The prepared PLA/LMPA/MWCNTS wires could be further dedicated to print with 3-dimensional (3D) structures. Additionally, the tensile modulus of the printed composites was three times as higher as that of the pure PLA. The tensile modulus of composites is temperature-dependant, specially it would decrease more significantly at the melting point of LMPA. The study on the FDM of the advanced composited-wires would inspire a new branch in the additive manufacturing. The material could also be potentially applied in variable stiffness components, electromagnetic shielding and other applications.

In this study, an 8mm thick AH36 steel plate was welded using laser + MAG hybrid welding technology. The results show that when the laser power is low, the droplet transition form is droplet transition, the droplet size is larger, and the transition frequency is low. As the laser power increases, the form of droplet transition is jet transition, the droplet size is small, and the transition frequency is high. When the laser power is low, the undercut phenomenon of the weld is serious. With the increase of the laser power, the undercut phenomenon of the weld is improved. Besides, the weld width and welding seam reinforcement will also increase. Laser-arc hybrid welding has a certain gap adaptability. When the laser power is 10KW, the weld profile of 0mm welding gap and 1mm welding gap are basically the same. Properly reducing the laser power is conducive to the larger welding assembly gap of laser arc hybrid welding.

Flexible sensors modified with microstructures possess excellent high sensitivity and ultralow detection limit. In this study, silver-coated-glass fiber-filled silicon rubbers with their net structures were 3D printed and designed. Porous structures were introduced through the multi-layer printing of the net structure. The high conductivity of the printed composites originated from the conductive fillers, which assure the composites applied in circuit connection. Flexible capacitive sensors were further fabricated with the porous composites as electrode layers and the flat polyethylene terephthalate film as the middle dielectric layer. The prepared capacitive sensors owned an excellent sensing property to detect ultralow load with a sensitivity of 0.0666 kPa−1. The evolution of the porous structure was schematically described, when the capacitive sensors were compressed. The net-structured porous capacitive sensors fabricated with 3D process would inspire us a new branch in the printing electronics.

In order to enhance the surface quality and avoid the cracking problem of the wear-resistant layer on guide slippers of coal cutting machines, an automatic welding system was employed for the overlaying welding production. By regulating the welding parameters, including the welding path and speed, the surface flatness and quality were greatly reduced. The cracks at the arc extinguishing positions were effectively eliminated. As compared to the conventional manual welding, the automatic welding not only reduced the machining allowance, but also increased the production rate and the service life of the guide slippers.

As a continuation of the previous research, influences of human vehicle dynamics coupling (HVDC) on miniature electric vehicle (MEV) roll stability are studied by varying driver weight, wheel base and track width. A multi-body dynamics model is developed for the human-vehicle system by ADAMS/Car software considering driver's dynamics and is validated theoretically. Simulation results show that the MEV roll stability is decreased by the HVDC; the influences become greater with an increase in the proportion of the driver weight to curb weight of the MEV in both time and frequency domain; with the decrease of wheel base, the differences caused by the HVDC exhibit an increasing trend in the maximum value and overshoot; and the differences in the steady stable roll angle and phase lag at 0.6 Hz indicate an increasing tendency with the decrease of track width.

In the course of electromagnetic launch, the rail deflection deformation seriously affects the service life and launch accuracy of the orbit. In order to reduce the deflection deformation in the process of orbital launch, based on the principle of electromagnetic emission, simplifying the orbit to Euler-Bernoulli beam, built moving load working conditions of the electromagnetic moving load model, using the electromagnetic launcher bore related structural parameters and material parameters for the rail electromagnetic theory analysis and calculation, the analysis results show that under the condition of the same peak current, rail the biggest position in midpoint deflection deformation; under different peak current, the deflection of the midpoint of the rail increases non-linearly. The deflection of the rail can be effectively reduced by increasing the stiffness of the elastic support. According to the above theoretical analysis results, an electromagnetic launching device was developed. The experimental comparison results show that the deflection deformation is reduced by 42.86% and the critical launch velocity is increased by 6.86% with the increase of support stiffness.

Huge ball mill bearings experience a transient period when they are fed with raw material or their basis is impacted. The behavior of such bearings during the transient period is significant to the safety of the machine. In the present paper, the step load is used to simulate this process. Transient hydrodynamic lubricating models of a multi-pocket pivoted pad hydro-static bearing used in ball mill are established. The hydrodynamic and squeeze effects are take into account, and the models are solved using nonlinear numerical methods. The journal center trajectory, time response of the pad tilting, oil pressure in the pockets, and minimum pad film thickness during the transient period are presented. The oil flow rate evolutions out of the main pockets in all pads are exhibited. The effects of step load on bearing performance are discussed. It was found that the decrease in minimum film thickness can be quite large under the step load impact, which may lead to the damage of the bearing.

The inverse kinematics problem (IKP) is at the center of computer control algorithms for general serial manipulator. The exact number of feasible solutions of the IKP is highly dependent on the manipulator structure as well as the desired end-effector pose, and the existing inverse kinematics methods have difficulties to solve all feasible solutions of a general serial manipulator. In this work, a multiple solutions approach is applied to the IKP. Then, three numerical examples are used to validate the effectiveness of the multiple solutions approach, and the numerical results demonstrate that the multiple solutions approach is effective and practicable. Finally, an infinite solutions example is presented to show that the proposed approach could also provide limited number of numerical solutions in singularity.

In the cold winter, it is a routine task to deicing on transmission lines in severe cold climate so as to ensure the safety and stable operation of transmission lines. Compared with the traditional contact deicing method for transmission line insulators, the using of laser for transmission line deicing has the advantages of sound deicing effect, no damage to the lines, clean and efficient energy utilization, et al. As the laser energy gradually decays with the increase of distance, this paper proposes a new method to realize laser deicing of short-range transmission line insulator by using UAV equipped with laser. In responds to the dispersion problem of traditional control, this paper fully integrates U AV control and laser control platform, the double have been integrated into one, in the new control platform, the U AV control and laser control can be realized simultaneously, the kinematics model of the laser has been established and its forward and inverse solutions have been solved and analyzed. Finally, simulation experiments verify the validity of the model. Compared with the traditional mode, this deicing mode not only realizes the control integration, but also it is easy to operate. It is especially suitable for the operation in the transmission line field environment, which greatly enhances the robot operation efficiency. At the same time, the simulation of laser head sweeping space and deicing operation motion planning based on the kinematic model show that the system designed in this paper can realize the suspension insulators deicing without blind area. The implementation and promotion of this study has important theoretical significance and practical application value for the practicability of intelligent operation and transmission lines maintenance management.

Contact analyses of heterogeneous materials may find crucial applications in many tribological studies. However, the simulations of such analyses may be difficult to be implemented since the nonlinear behaviors caused by the material heterogeneity and contact may be more complicated. Based on Eshelby's equivalent inclusion method (EIM), an arbitrarily shaped inhomogeneity interacting with a contact load may be evaluated by an equivalent inclusion model with a contact load, where the influences of the boundary surface are taken into account through the method of images. In order to improve the computational efficiency, a two-dimensional fast Fourier transform based algorithms (2D-FFT) with zero padding and wrap-around order are employed to solve the contact problem. To benchmark the present solutions, an elastic half-space containing inhomogeneities under Hertzian-type contact load is considered, and parametric studies are further performed to demonstrate the effects of elastic modulus and depth on the stress field.

Complex structure with circular boundaries is commonly used in engineering practice, and it is essential to conduct a detailed analysis of the interior stress field of the structure. The Michell stress function is a well-known general solution for plane elasticity problems in the polar coordinates, particularly when circular boundaries are involved. This work presents an analytical method with the assistance of the Michell solution, which could be seamlessly combined with Fourier analysis. Using the expansion of Fourier series, problems with arbitrarily distributed loads can be handled via a standard procedure. A complete analytical solution is elaborated for an arbitrarily loaded circular ring, and a classical elastic solution is provided for verification.

Hertz's contact theory is widely used in elastic solid contact problems. In this paper, the applicability of Hertz's contact theory in conformal contact problems was examined. Taking deep groove ball bearing and the outer raceway model as an example, both the FEM analyses and the theoretical studies were conducted. It is found that when the radius coefficient of groove curvature is greater than 0.55, Hertz's theory can be practically applied for conformal contact. Contact problems of rolling bearings are generally solved by Hertz's contact theory without considering inclusions and inhomogeneities in the material. In this paper, inclusions are presented in the contact analyses, and the corresponding elastic field distribution of the contact-inclusion model is investigated by using the finite element method.

An inclusion refers to localized eigenstrains appearing in such processes as thermal expansion and plastic deformation. In view of micromechanics, the existence of inclusions may significantly influence the mechanical properties of the engineering materials. A micromechanical model is proposed to determine the variation of the strain energies in the presence of the near-surface inclusions. The corresponding inclusion problem in a half-space is usually difficult to be solved analytically. In this work, the strain energy is evaluated numerically via the method of images, which superposes the counterpart solutions in full-space and eliminates the tractions on the boundary surface of the half-space. The validity of the present work is confirmed by comparing with the published results and the finite element method (FEM).

It is a great challenge to improve the mechanical properties of vascular stent, especially in curved vessels. Vascular stent should have ideal mechanical properties, such as high elasticity, high strength and biocompatibility. At present, most of the literatures focus on the mechanical properties of the stent after expansion, ignoring that of the stent before the stent is implanted into the human body. After the stent is crimped, it has a great impact on the stress fatigue of the stent. Excessive compression will lead to the weakening strength, which cannot support the blood vessel. Therefore, in this paper, an improved algorithm was proposed to crimp and straighten a curved stent to a smaller diameter to generate the required boundary conditions by finite element analysis (FEA). This method is helpful to study the mechanical properties of the stent after being crimped and treat lesions in highly curved locations.

Developing films with great conformability has become a research hotspot in many fields. The conventional method to enhance conformability is to make the film thinner and more compliant, which usually compromises the strength of the structure. For example, developing functional medical bandages that can perfectly conform to the skin surface during cyclic bending of the joints is still a considerable challenge. In this paper, we propose a novel non-uniform kirigami to make the film achieve the same non-uniform auxetic (negative Poisson's ratio) deformation as the skin around the joint area. By mapping the corresponding unit cells to the target surface, the surface can easily achieve the same deformation as the target skin without any alterations in its thickness or adhesion. As the obtained non-uniform kirigami film structure has the same deformation behavior as the target skin surface, the conformability of the structure can be guaranteed during the entire rotation process of the joints. Moreover, the proposed film is also expected to be used in novel biomaterials, such as smart bandages, skin scaffold, etc.

The issue of cavitation of oil in a pipe is a concerning problem in the design of a high-speed refueling device. This paper established a CFD model for the fluid flow of oil in a refueling pipe based on FLUENT and applied a combined VOF multiphase model and Schnerr-Sauer cavitation model to simulate the cavitation behavior as the oil flows around obstacles in a pipe. The effects of refueling speed, obstacle structure, and pipe diameter on the cavitation were numerically studied using the combined model, and the volume and mass rates of cavitation and their distribution characteristics were obtained. The numerical results show that: the cavitation is strong behind the obstacle, which presents a length of 217 mm, maximum volume rate 53%, and maximum mass rate 0.18% as the refueling speed is 10 m/s; reducing the inlet velocity and increasing the pipe diameter can dramatically weaken the cavitation behavior; adding more obstacles leads the cavitation area reduces first and then keep stable gradually, in which the cavitation phenomenon starts from the first obstacle; placing the obstacles alternatively in the pipe can significantly intensify the cavitation, while the cavitation always starts from the last obstacle.

When the projectiles with different head shapes impact and penetrate the concrete targets, the resistances of the target plates to the projectiles are significantly different, which is manifested by the time history curve of different accelerations, velocities and the penetration depths of the projectiles, resulting in the obvious differences of the penetration ability of the projectiles to the targets with a same compressive strength. In order to determine the influence degree of projectiles with different head shapes on the penetration ability, ANSYS/LS-DYN is adopted. The finite element numerical simulation software is used to simulate and analyze the three kinds of rigid projectiles: oval (including double oval and oval), conical (including double conical and conical) and cone oval. Among them, the projectiles all penetrated C40 concrete cylindrical targets vertically at an initial velocity of 700m/s. The results show that the penetration ability of the optimal oval, conical and cone oval projectile is gradually reduced, and the highest penetration ability is the oval projectile numbered as dan001, whose final penetration depth is 539cm.

The electric motor is an important part of a mobile power station. Under the complex operating conditions, the stiffness of the rolling bearing exhibits strong time-varying characteristics and non-linear characteristics, which is the one of the main sources for the system non-linearity. Taking the angular contact bearing as the research object, the coupled dynamic model of the bearing-rotor system is established to calculate the time-varying stiffness. The bifurcation law exhibited by the system can be attributed to the excitation of the non-linear bearing force. The numerical calculation method is used to study the motion state bifurcation law and dynamic frequency response characteristics under the rated working condition of the motor. Considering bearing damping, clearance and radial load, the bifurcation and time domain diagrams of different parameters, displacements and rotation speeds in different directions are studied respectively. The results show that when the parameters change, the system will experience chaos, quasi-period and period-doubling motion state; Damping suppresses vibration very clearly, while changes in bearing clearance and radial load significantly cause the system's vibration amplitude to increase, and radial load changes accelerate system vibration. A reasonable bearing is of great significance for motor the design of a mobile power station.

Vibration characteristics of packeted bladed disk is complicated. To study the vibration characteristics of the governing stage bladed disk of 660mw steam turbine, cyclic symmetry method is used to calculate the mode shapes. Fourier transformation of vibration distribution in the tangential and axial direction along the circumferential of the bladed disk is applied to obtain the harmonic components. It is found that the Fourier decomposition of each blade displacement contains not only unique component, but also other components. For integrally shrouded blades, the resonance of the m nodal diameter mode can be obtained only when the corresponding natural frequency satisfies the condition ωn = kn = mn, where n is the rotational speed and m is the harmonic number. For packeted bladed disk, there are additional harmonics that resonance occurs. The harmonic components are related to the nodal diameter number when the number of blades groups and the total number of blades are given.

The case of fabricating micro-channel on copper foil using micro-scale laser dynamic flexible forming (μLDFF) is investigated in this work. To study the deformation and fracture behaviors, the copper foils are subjected to increasing laser power density until the occurrence of fracture. When laser power density ranges from 0.110 GW/cm2 to 0.441 GW/cm2, smooth micro-channel features are formed on copper foils, and the depth of the micro-channel gradually increases. Melting marks are observed at the micro-die entrance of the sample with 0.441 GW/cm2 laser power density. When laser power density is 0.544 GW/cm2, partial fractures are observed. The surface of fracture region is rougher than that of micro-cracks and no micro-cracks regions, which is caused by the higher strain in fracture region. And the fracture edge is irregular, which is caused by the soft effect of material. Complete fracture occurs when laser power density is 0.691 GW/cm2.

Secondly, a convolutional neural network is designed and added behind the expanded input to extract relevant features. Finally, a regressor is designed to build the mapping relationship between the extracted features and the utilization factor. The data collected from a Singapore tunnel project was utilized to verify the proposed method.

Operating quantum materials through the application of strong electric field holds great promise for the development of new-generation electronic and photonic technologies with currently inaccessible functionalities. The conventional way of applying gate voltage to produce sufficiently high electric field faces challenge in micro-nano level. Here, we explore polarization field of two-dimensional piezoelectric semiconductors under externally applied strain. The results suggest that the intensity of polarization field can exceed 10 MV/cm near the boundaries of single-layered MoS2 ribbon. Such polarization field can trigger the metallicity-to-semiconductor (M-S) phase transition of one-dimensional edge states, and even lead to metallic bulk states. Similar phase transition can also be driven by a pure external electric field but the required intensity is in the order of MV/cm. Electric field driving the semiconducting phase of edge states presents the sensitive dependence of ribbon width but relatively robust for polarization field. This study opens a new avenue to manipulate quantum materials by high polarization field.

Thermal emissivity is one of the most important indices used to evaluate thermal emission capability of an object and is essential for characterization of thermal emitters, especially in the field of infrared thermal emission engineering for various applications, including personal thermal management, radiative cooling and heat preservation, infrared stealth, and infrared encryption. However, due to the natural background thermal emissions from the ambient environment and experimental setup, conventional methods generally ignore the background emissions while keeping the temperature of the radiating sample significantly higher than the ambient temperature. Here, we introduce a simple method that enables accurate measurement of emissivity of a given sample without necessitating high temperature through elimination of background emission noise by the difference of the measured emission signals of the sample at two different temperatures.

We demonstrate a method for doping a polymer with VO2 nanoparticles towards realizing a thermal emissivity modulation device, which is expected to supplement the conventional preparation of VO2 film layers using magnetron sputtering, vapor deposition, and such techniques which are relatively cumbersome and expensive. The comparison of thermal emissivity modulation ability of VO2 film membrane structure on silicon substrate obtained by magnetron sputtering and pressed tablet sample obtained from VO2 nanoparticles reveals that the latter also demonstrates substantial thermal emissivity modulation ability. Furthermore, the emissivity of this fabricated PDMS-VO2 blended sample can change from 0.90 to 0.71 in a heating test.

The normal operation of pipelines will be affected by the surrounding environment. As an outstanding problem, pit excavation with protection on adjacent pipelines has been paid more and more attention in urban infrastructure. Adding retaining structure in soft clay area can effectively reduce the influence of pit excavation on buried pipeline. In this paper, a3D simulation model of pipeline-soil-wall coupling is established. And the effect parameters of soil, pipeline and envelope on pipeline stress distribution, axial strain and pipeline displacement are analysed. It is found that the stress of pipeline concentrated on the middle part of the pipeline after excavation with retaining foundation pit. The larger the elastic modulus and cohesive force of soil, the smaller the deformation of pipeline, while the change of Poisson's ratio is opposite. With the increase of pipeline wall thickness and distance between pipeline and diaphragm wall, the Poisson's ratio is decreased. The internal pressure of the pipeline has hardly affected by the deformation of pipeline, but the deformation of pipeline is increased with the increase of the depth of the foundation pit. The thickness and modulus of elasticity of diaphragm wall have the same change. They are greater with the smaller of deformation capacity of pipeline. These results provide theoretical guidance for the research of foundation pit and pipeline, and provide reference basis for engineering construction.

In order to investigate the influence of longitudinal cracks on the bearing capacity of wood beams, the simulation models of cantilever beam and simply supported beam with cracks were established based on the FEM and XFEM. Through the simulation, influence of the cracks on stress distribution and bearing capacity of the beams are discussed. Simulation results show that longitudinal crack has an effect of homogenizing the stress field in the wood beam, which is helpful to improve the overall displacement bearing capacity of the beam. Considering that survival with injuries is the normal state of wooden structures, the damage tolerance theory of wood structure can be developed. Therefore, this paper is a preliminary attempt in this field. However, the more complex microstructure of wood will make the damage process more complex. In the future, it is necessary to carry out targeted research, which can not only establish the damage tolerance theory for wood components, but also inspire more in-depth thinking and research in bionics.

The state of the target, the strain nephogram and the stress nephogram of the target under the maximum overload are obtained. The curves of penetration depth, penetration velocity, overload and energy are analyzed. The results show that: in oblique penetration, the projectile's trajectory deflects more in the process of entering the concrete target, and then deflects less; the trajectory deflection of the projectile is small in the process of entering the soil target and a certain distance after it, but it becomes larger when it is fast out of the target.

Most of the existing aerosol cultivation equipments are bulky, simple-structured and poor in functional stability. Based on this, the author developed a set of automatic control high-pressure fine mist cultivation device, designed the PLC automatic control circuit, and simulated and tested the temperature and humidity change curves. The test results verify the simulation model and the overall device runs well, among which the spray atomization process, and the temperature field, humidity field and velocity field under three atomization modes are simulated. Three atomization schemes are analyzed, and in the end the optimal one is selected. In comparison, the side-by-side spray is completely covered; the atomization is more sufficient. The results show that the time when the humidity reaches 90% in the same position is different under different initial humidity conditions. The atomization humidity maintenance time in different environments is approximately the same, and can be maintained for 4 to 5 hours. It can be seen from the comparison of the results that the greater the humidity, the shorter the heat exchange time and the faster the heat exchange.

As a research hotspot in the field of current computer vision, pedestrian detection is widely applied to many fields, such as video surveillance and autonomous driving. However, the accuracy of pedestrian detection under video surveillance is poor, and the miss rate of small target pedestrians is high. In this paper, an improves the YOLOv3 algorithm and a YOLOv3-Multi pedestrian detection model had been proposed. First, referring to the residual structure of DarkNet, the shallow features and deep features had been up-sampled and connected to obtain a multi-scale detection layer. Then, according to different special detection categories, the spatial pyramid pool (SPP) is introduced to strengthen the detection of small targets. The experimental results show that our method improves the average accuracy by 2.54%, 6.43% and 8.99%compared with YOLOv3, SSD and YOLOv2 on the VOC dataset.

In view of the current situation that the remote sensing inversion of suspended sediment is mainly based on low spatial resolution satellite data, sentinel-2 satellite data with resolution of up to 10m is used to retrieve the suspended sediment content in Harbin section of Songhua River. And the inversion model is established based on the measured data and remote sensing data. The results show that the fitting degree of b3/(B2 + B4) in the multi band ratio and the measured suspended sediment concentration is the highest, reaching 0.904. The results show that the average relative error between the inversion value and the measured value is 19.88%, and the root mean square error is 0.039g/l. The results show that the suspended sediment content of Songhua River is lower than that of other six rivers in China, and belongs to the less sand river. The sediment content on both sides of the bank is higher than that of the center of the river. In the wide river, the suspended sediment content is low, and the suspended sediment content is higher in the narrow area.
