    Intention is the main embodiment of human cerebral conscious activities, which has an important influence on guiding the realization of human behaviour. It is a vital prerequisite for analysing the dynamic characteristics of pilots with different intentions. Considering the intention law of the generation, transfer and reduction, this paper analyses dynamic characteristics of pilots with different intentions, starting from the factors of effect on the intention. Taking airfield traffic pattern as an example for simulating flight experiments, the pilot’s multi-source dynamic data of human – aircraft – environment system under different intentions and their psycho-physiological-physical characteristics were recorded. Based on Matlab, one-way analysis of variance was used to extract variables with significant changes, and the variables under different intentions were compared and analysed. The results show that the conventional pilots are more conducive to control the aircraft to keep a stable flight attitude. This study is of great significance for perfecting the warning system of flight safety and improving the pilot’s micro-behaviour assessment system.</p

    Integrating a dual-silicon photoelectrochemical cell into a redox flow battery for unassisted photocharging

    Solar rechargeable flow cells (SRFCs) provide an attractive approach for in situ capture and storage of intermittent solar energy via photoelectrochemical regeneration of discharged redox species for electricity generation. However, overall SFRC performance is restricted by inefficient photoelectrochemical reactions. Here we report an efficient SRFC based on a dual-silicon photoelectrochemical cell and a quinone/bromine redox flow battery for in situ solar energy conversion and storage. Using narrow bandgap silicon for efficient photon collection and fast redox couples for rapid interface charge injection, our device shows an optimal solar-to-chemical conversion efficiency of similar to 5.9% and an overall photon-chemical-electricity energy conversion efficiency of similar to 3.2%, which, to our knowledge, outperforms previously reported SRFCs. The proposed SRFC can be self-photocharged to 0.8V and delivers a discharge capacity of 730 mAhl(-1). Our work may guide future designs for highly efficient solar rechargeable devices

    Six Margattea species are established and described: three are cryptic species, namely, M. parabisignata Li &amp;amp; Che, sp. nov., M. semicircularis Li &amp;amp; Che, sp. nov., and M. forcipata Li &amp;amp; Che, sp. nov. They are distinguished from known species M. bisignata, M. spinifera, and M. paratransversa by their male genitalia with the aid of molecular species delimitation method (ABGD) using COI as the molecular marker. The other three new species are M. pedata Li &amp;amp; Che, sp. nov., M. undulata Li &amp;amp; Che, sp. nov., and M. bisphaerica Li &amp;amp; Che, sp. nov. Morphological and genitalia photographs of these new species of Margattea, as well as a key to the species of Margattea from China, are provided
