Suppress vibration on robotic polishing with impedance matching
Installing force-controlled end-effectors on the end of industrial robots has become the mainstream method for robot force control. Additionally, during the polishing process, contact force stability has an important impact on polishing quality. However, due to the difference between the robot structure and the force-controlled end-effector, in the polishing operation, direct force control will have impact during the transition from noncontact to contact between the tool and the workpiece. Although impedance control can solve this problem, industrial robots still produce vibrations with high inertia and low stiffness. Therefore, this research proposes an impedance matching control strategy based on traditional direct force control and impedance control methods to improve this problem. This method's primary purpose is to avoid force vibration in the contact phase and maintain force-tracking performance during the dynamic tracking phase. Simulation and experimental results show that this method can smoothly track the contact force and reduce vibration compared with traditional force control and impedance control
Intrinsic Lithiophilicity of Li–Garnet Electrolytes Enabling High‐Rate Lithium Cycling
Solid‐state lithium batteries are widely considered as next‐generation lithium‐ion battery technology due to the potential advantages in safety and performance. Among the various solid electrolyte materials, Li–garnet electrolytes are promising due to their high ionic conductivity and good chemical and electrochemical stabilities. However, the high electrode/electrolyte interfacial impedance is one of the major challenges. Moreover, short circuiting caused by lithium dendrite formation is reported when using Li–garnet electrolytes. Here, it is demonstrated that Li–garnet electrolytes wet well with lithium metal by removing the intrinsic impurity layer on the surface of the lithium metal. The Li/garnet interfacial impedance is determined to be 6.95 Ω cm2 at room temperature. Lithium symmetric cells based on the Li–garnet electrolytes are cycled at room temperature for 950 h and current density as high as 13.3 mA cm−2 without showing signs of short circuiting. Experimental and computational results reveal that it is the surface oxide layer on the lithium metal together with the garnet surface that majorly determines the Li/garnet interfacial property. These findings suggest that removing the superficial impurity layer on the lithium metal can enhance the wettability, which may impact the manufacturing process of future high energy density garnet‐based solid‐state lithium batteries.By removing the impurity layer on the surface of the lithium metal, Li–garnet electrolytes are demonstrated to well wet the lithium metal, rendering a Li/garnet interfacial impedance of 6.95 Ω cm2, stable galvanostatic cycling for 950 h, and a current density as high as 13.3 mA cm−2 without showing any sign of short circuiting at room temperature.Peer Reviewedhttps://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/154451/1/adfm201906189-sup-0001-SuppMat.pdfhttps://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/154451/2/adfm201906189.pdfhttps://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/154451/3/adfm201906189_am.pd
Anomalous optical and electronic properties of dense sodium
Based on ab initio density-functional-theory using generalized gradient
approximation, we systematically study the optical and electronic properties of
the insulating dense sodium phase (Na-hp4) reported recently [Ma \textit{et
al.}, Nature \textbf{458}, 182 (2009)]. The structure is found optically
anisotropic and transparent to visible light, which can be well interpreted
using its electronic band structure and angular moment decomposed density of
states. Through the bader analysis of Na-hp4 at different pressures, we
conclude that ionicity exists in the structure and becomes stronger with
increasing pressure. In addition, the absorption spectra in the energy range
from 1.4 to 2.4 eV are compared with recent experimental results and found good
agreement. It is found that the deep-lying valence electrons participate in the
interband transition.Comment: 7 pages, 7 figure
A prognostic estimation model based on mRNA-sequence data for patients with oligodendroglioma
BackgroundThe diagnosis of oligodendroglioma based on the latest World Health Organization Classification of Tumors of the Central Nervous System (WHO CNS 5) criteria requires the codeletion of chromosome arms 1p and 19q and isocitrate dehydrogenase gene (IDH) mutation (mut). Previously identified prognostic indicators may not be completely suitable for patients with oligodendroglioma based on the new diagnostic criteria. To find potential prognostic indicators for oligodendroglioma, we analyzed the expression of mRNAs of oligodendrogliomas in Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas (CGGA).MethodsWe collected 165 CGGA oligodendroglioma mRNA-sequence datasets and divided them into two cohorts. Patients in the two cohorts were further classified into long-survival and short-survival subgroups. The most predictive mRNAs were filtered out of differentially expressed mRNAs (DE mRNAs) between long-survival and short-survival patients in the training cohort by least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO), and risk scores of patients were calculated. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to screen factors associated with survival and establish the prognostic model. qRT-PCR was used to validate the expression differences of mRNAs.ResultsA total of 88 DE mRNAs were identified between the long-survival and the short-survival groups in the training cohort. Seven RNAs were selected to calculate risk scores. Univariate analysis showed that risk level, age, and primary-or-recurrent status (PRS) type were statistically correlated with survival and were used as factors to establish a prognostic model for patients with oligodendroglioma. The model showed an optimal predictive accuracy with a C-index of 0.912 (95% CI, 0.679–0.981) and harbored a good agreement between the predictions and observations in both training and validation cohorts.ConclusionWe established a prognostic model based on mRNA-sequence data for patients with oligodendroglioma. The predictive ability of this model was validated in a validation cohort, which demonstrated optimal accuracy. The 7 mRNAs included in the model would help predict the prognosis of patients and guide personalized treatment
Anomalous stopping of laser-accelerated intense proton beam in dense ionized matter
Ultrahigh-intensity lasers (10-10W/cm) have opened up new
perspectives in many fields of research and application [1-5]. By irradiating a
thin foil, an ultrahigh accelerating field (10 V/m) can be formed and
multi-MeV ions with unprecedentedly high intensity (10A/cm) in short
time scale (ps) are produced [6-14]. Such beams provide new options in
radiography [15], high-yield neutron sources [16], high-energy-density-matter
generation [17], and ion fast ignition [18,19]. An accurate understanding of
the nonlinear behavior of beam transport in matter is crucial for all these
applications. We report here the first experimental evidence of anomalous
stopping of a laser-generated high-current proton beam in well-characterized
dense ionized matter. The observed stopping power is one order of magnitude
higher than single-particle slowing-down theory predictions. We attribute this
phenomenon to collective effects where the intense beam drives an decelerating
electric field approaching 1GV/m in the dense ionized matter. This finding will
have considerable impact on the future path to inertial fusion energy.Comment: 8 pages, 4 figure
Energy loss enhancement of very intense proton beams in dense matter due to the beam-density effect
Thoroughly understanding the transport and energy loss of intense ion beams
in dense matter is essential for high-energy-density physics and inertial
confinement fusion. Here, we report a stopping power experiment with a
high-intensity laser-driven proton beam in cold, dense matter. The measured
energy loss is one order of magnitude higher than the expectation of individual
particle stopping models. We attribute this finding to the proximity of beam
ions to each other, which is usually insignificant for relatively-low-current
beams from classical accelerators. The ionization of the cold target by the
intense ion beam is important for the stopping power calculation and has been
considered using proper ionization cross section data. Final theoretical values
agree well with the experimental results. Additionally, we extend the stopping
power calculation for intense ion beams to plasma scenario based on Ohm's law.
Both the proximity- and the Ohmic effect can enhance the energy loss of intense
beams in dense matter, which are also summarized as the beam-density effect.
This finding is useful for the stopping power estimation of intense beams and
significant to fast ignition fusion driven by intense ion beams
