Time-frequency feature extraction from multiple impulse source signal of reciprocating compressor based on local frequency
Vibration signals generated by reciprocating compressor present a multiple impulse source property, which is typical non-stationary. For this kind of signal, time-frequency analysis techniques, such as STFT, WVT, WT and HHT, represent some limitations. To alleviate this problem, a novel concept of local frequency (LF) is proposed in the paper. Based on the concept, a time-frequency distribution algorithm is established. Some non-stationary simulation signals, including multi-harmonic signal, FM signal and multiple impulse source signal, are investigated to identify the feasibility and effectiveness of the novel time-frequency analysis technique. Compared with WVT, WT and HHT, time-frequency analysis based on LF represents a higher resolution and more useful information. Moreover, the proposed approach is applied to the fault feature extraction of reciprocating compressor gas valve vibration signal in normal valve state and gap valve state. The results indicate the superiority of proposed approach in extracting time-frequency features from multiple impulse source signal of reciprocating compressor, which obtains a more precise result than WVT, WT and HHT. So it can provide an effective basis to fault diagnosis of reciprocating compressor
THE EFFECT OF EIGHT WEEKS TRAINING WITH EXTRA WEIGHT ON STANDING LONG JUMP PERFORMANCE
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of eight weeks training with extra weight in the hands on standing long jump performance. Fifteen junior high school male students participated in the study. Vicon motion system (10 cameras, 200Hz) and two Kistler force plates (1000 Hz) were used to collect the kinematics and kinetic data of pretraining and post-training tests. The results found the jumping distance increased 18 % after extra weight training. The horizontal velocity of center of mass (CM) at takeoff, flight distance, landing distance, the CM difference at takeoff, the horizontal positive impulse and the peak horizontal ground reaction force were all significantly enhanced. It was concluded that eight weeks of extra weight in the hands jump training increased the high school male standing long jump performance

Efficient FPGA implementation of high-throughput mixed radix multipath delay commutator FFT processor for MIMO-OFDM
This article presents and evaluates pipelined architecture designs for an improved high-frequency Fast Fourier
Transform (FFT) processor implemented on Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA) for Multiple Input Multiple Output
Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (MIMO-OFDM). The architecture presented is a Mixed-Radix Multipath Delay
Commutator. The presented parallel architecture utilizes fewer hardware resources compared to Radix-2 architecture,
while maintaining simple control and butterfly structures inherent to Radix-2 implementations. The high-frequency
design presented allows enhancing system throughput without requiring additional parallel data paths common in
other current approaches, the presented design can process two and four independent data streams in parallel
and is suitable for scaling to any power of two FFT size N. FPGA implementation of the architecture demonstrated
significant resource efficiency and high-throughput in comparison to relevant current approaches within
literature. The proposed architecture designs were realized with Xilinx System Generator (XSG) and evaluated
on both Virtex-5 and Virtex-7 FPGA devices. Post place and route results demonstrated maximum frequency
values over 400 MHz and 470 MHz for Virtex-5 and Virtex-7 FPGA devices respectively
Numerical investigation on rock fragmentation by cutting head of roadheader based on fracture mechanics
To investigate the mechanical behavior and load torque of the cutting head in the rock fragmentation process, a numerical model was developed based on fracture mechanics and finite element method. And then, rock fragmentation and factors influencing the force of cutting head were investigated. The good agreement of variation characteristics of cutting torque between experimental results and numerical values indicated that the numerical model was reliable and correct, and thus it could be a useful approach for simulating rock fragmentation. The cutting torque and its range of fluctuation increased with the feeding speed, but decreased with the slope of linear variation of slanting angle (SLVSA). Improving the rotation speed could reduce cutting torque, but its effect on torque fluctuation was inconspicuous. Regression equations between the characteristic index (CI) of cutting torque, feeding speed, rotation speed and SLVSA are given
Efficient metal halide perovskite light-emitting diodes with significantly improved light extraction on nanophotonic substrates.
Metal halide perovskite has emerged as a promising material for light-emitting diodes. In the past, the performance of devices has been improved mainly by optimizing the active and charge injection layers. However, the large refractive index difference among different materials limits the overall light extraction. Herein, we fabricate efficient methylammonium lead bromide light-emitting diodes on nanophotonic substrates with an optimal device external quantum efficiency of 17.5% which is around twice of the record for the planar device based on this material system. Furthermore, optical modelling shows that a high light extraction efficiency of 73.6% can be achieved as a result of a two-step light extraction process involving nanodome light couplers and nanowire optical antennas on the nanophotonic substrate. These results suggest that utilization of nanophotonic structures can be an effective approach to achieve high performance perovskite light-emitting diodes
