Microstructure modelling of laser metal powder directed energy deposition of Alloy 718
摘要: A multi-component and multi-phase-field modelling approach, combined with transformation kinetics modelling, was used to model microstructure evolution during laser metal powder directed energy deposition of Alloy 718 and subsequent heat treatments. Experimental temperature measurements were utilised to predict microstructural evolution during successive addition of layers. Segregation of alloying elements as well as formation of Laves and δ phase was specifically modelled. The predicted elemental concentrations were then used in transformation kinetics to estimate changes in Continuous Cooling Transformation (CCT) and Time Temperature Transformation (TTT) diagrams for Alloy 718. Modelling results showed good agreement with experimentally observed phase evolution within the microstructure. The results indicate that the approach can be a valuable tool, both for improving process understanding and for process development including subsequent heat treatment.

[IEEE 2018 IEEE Power & Energy Society General Meeting (PESGM) - Portland, OR, USA (2018.8.5-2018.8.10)] 2018 IEEE Power & Energy Society General Meeting (PESGM) - An Innovative Methodology for Load and Generation Modelling in a Reliability Assessment with PV and Smart Meter Readings
摘要: With a paradigm shift from centralized to decentralized integration of distributed generation, particularly the photovoltaic (PV) systems made significant impacts on the reliability of power systems. The intermittency of PV and the stochastic nature of load results in a complex interaction of PV and load profiles, in a reliability assessment. In order to reduce the complexities of intermittent power generation interaction with smart meter customer consumptions, this paper presents an innovative methodology for the modeling of intermittent PV generation and smart meter readings in a reliability assessment in a power system. A case study was performed incorporating different scenarios of PV integrations with real-world smart meter load data, and climate projections weather in a UK environment. The results validate robustness of the proposed modeling framework for the reliability assessment in a power system with an accuracy of more than 99.5% and 97.5%, compared with actual generation and load profiles respectively.

Photochemical multivariate curve resolution models for the investigation of photochromic systems under continuous irradiation
摘要: We propose a multivariate curve resolution approach for the investigation of photochromic systems using UV-Visible spectroscopy. The incorporation of photochemical hard-models as constraints in multivariate curve resolution alternating least squares (MCR-ALS) allows extracting reaction quantum yields in situations where a complete knowledge of the system is not available. We apply this approach to the study of the photochromism of CMTE (cis-1,2-dicyano-1,2-bis(2,4,5-trimethyl-3-thienyl)ethene) under continuous monochromatic irradiation. The mechanism, involving 3 species and 2 reversible reactions, is written and translated into a kinetic constraint that can be applied to the concentration profiles within ALS. First, ambiguity of the solution obtained for photochemical model(s) is calculated and discussed for single set analysis. Multiset analysis is then proposed combining data obtained under different irradiation wavelengths to provide more reliable results. Finally, the photochemical reactivity of CMTE is widely unraveled, and some description of the mechanism observed under irradiation at 365 nm is given.

A Mechanical and modelling study of magnetron sputtered Cerium-Titanium Oxide film coatings on Si (100)
摘要: Ce/Ti mixed metal oxide thin films have well known optoelectrical properties amongst several other physio-chemical properties. Changes in the structural and mechanical properties of magnetron sputtered Ce/Ti oxide thin films on Si (100) wafers with different Ce:Ti ratios are investigated experimentally and by modelling. X-ray Photoemission Spectroscopy (XPS) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) confirm the primary phases as trigonal Ce2O3 and rutile form of TiO2 with SiO2 present in all prepared materials. FESEM imaging delivers information based on the variation of grain size, the mixed Ce/Ti oxides providing much smaller grain sizes in the thin film/substrate composite. Nanoindentation analysis concludes that the pure cerium oxide film has the highest hardness value (20.1 GPa), while the addition of excess titanium oxide decreases the hardness of the film coatings. High temperature in-situ XRD (up to 1000 °C) results indicate high thermal phase stability for all materials studied. The film with Ce:Ti = 68%:32% has a new additional minor oxide phase above 800 °C. Contact angle experiments suggest that the chemical composition of the surface is insignificant affecting the water contact angle. Results show a narrow band of 87.7o to 95.7o contact angle. The finite element modelling (FEM) modelling of Ce/Ti thin film coatings based on Si(100); Si(110); silica and steel substrates shows a variation in stress concentration.

Assessment of different combinations of meteorological parameters for predicting daily global solar radiation using artificial neural networks
摘要: In this study, for determining the best-input scenarios of the used parameters in predicting the Daily Global Solar Radiation (DGSR), a new approach based on Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) was presented. The proposed approach is based on comparisons between all possible input combinations for determining the best scenarios that can give perfect correlations and approximations with DGSR. Recorded data from 35 stations belonging to different climatic zones (27 in Morocco and 8 in neighboring countries) were reported for training and testing the obtained results. The used input parameters include geographical coordinates, sun declination, day length, day number, clearness index (KI), Top Of Atmosphere (TOA), average ambient temperature (Ta), maximum temperature (Tmax), minimum temperature (Tmin), difference temperature (ΔT), temperature ratio (TR), relative humidity (Rh) and wind speed (Ws). The results revealed 128 best-input scenarios, where the first relevant input combination was found for KI, Ta, ΔT, TR and TOA. This result indicated that the best-input scenario for predicting DGSR is based only on three climatological parameters: KI, function of Ta f(Ta) and TOA. In addition, based on these found best-input scenarios and on the least square regression (LSR) technique, 128 new linear relationships between DGSR and the found best-input combinations were developed. The statistical analysis expressed through statistical criteria indicated perfect correlations and approximations between the predicted and measured values of DGSR.

Experimental studies and mathematical simulation of intermittent infrared and convective drying of sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas L.)
摘要: Intermittent infrared and convective drying (IIRCD) is a novel drying method that can enhance energy efficiency and quality of dried product. The mechanism of drying using this method is not yet fully understood. Mathematical models that describe the drying process of IIRCD for agricultural crops do not exist. In this study, a physics based mathematical model was developed to understand the mechanism of drying sweet potato using IIRCD. The model was based on shrinkage dependent diffusivity and evaporation phenomenon. COMSOL Multiphysics finite element software was employed for the model simulation. The simulation results of moisture and temperature distribution were validated by experimental drying data. The results fitted closely with experimental data. Drying of sweet potato using IIRCD was found to be more efficient in terms of final product quality compared to convective hot-air drying method.

Rapid calculation of bespoke body segment parameters using 3D infra-red scanning
摘要: Body segment parameters such as segment mass, centre of mass and moment of inertia, serve as important inputs for musculoskeletal modelling. These parameters are normally derived from regression tables; however, can be poorly representative of the study population with variations of up to 40% recorded between different tables. More recent methods, such as 3D scanning, present a rapid and accurate way to produce subject-specific body segment parameters for use in musculoskeletal models. An infra-red 3D scanner was used to produce full-body scans of 95 males and females. Each was put through an algorithm to calculate bespoke segment mass, centre of mass and inertial properties for each segment of the body, with results comparable to cadaveric data. These methods could be used to increase the specificity of musculoskeletal modelling outputs for individual subjects, improving the accuracy of modelling outputs in biomechanics-related research.

Compact polarimetry for automotive applications
摘要: Though compact polarimetric approaches have been developed and applied in space and geo researching systems they have not been taken into consideration in automotive applications, yet. A sensor system has been designed to conduct polarimetric measurements in the 77 GHz frequency band, which is permitted for automotive usage. This system is able to transceive linearly as well as circularly polarized electromagnetic continuous waves. Depending on the case of application, the frequency output can be set statically or modulated over time within adjustable parameters. Hence, a variety of compact polarimetric modes can be performed and compared with full polarimetric approaches. Two compact polarimetric modes, dual-circular polarimetric mode, and circular-transmit-linear-receive, will be introduced and applied in this contribution. Their operability in this frequency range will be investigated after the microstrip antennas as well as the beam focusing dielectrical lense are characterized. Finally, results of a realistical measurement set-up will confirm the practicability of compact polarimetric approaches for double bounce recognition.

Shining light on growth-dependent surface chemistry of organic crystals: a polarised Raman spectroscopic and computational study of aspirin
摘要: Understanding and controlling crystal surfaces is a critical problem in contemporary materials science. Organic crystal surfaces present the additional complexity of multiple terminations with different functional groups. These alternate terminations influence the surface chemistry and exert control on many material properties. While established tools for surface characterization exist, few provide the chemical information required to unambiguously identify functional groups. Polarized Raman spectroscopy is a versatile tool that can provide detailed chemical information on molecular materials, and, when used in a microscope configuration, can be used to map substrates on a micron scale. In this work, we demonstrate the use of polarized Raman to study the surface chemistry of aspirin. By analyzing crystals grown under a variety of conditions, we relate the growth solvent to the surface termination and reconcile the conflicting results in the literature on the nature of the <100> surface. Our results are supported by detailed first-principles modelling of the surfaces and their vibrational spectra. This study establishes the potential of polarized Raman microscopy as a tool for organic surface science that, when combined with predictive modelling, provides a powerful means to understand and ultimately control surface chemistry.
