Acoustic manipulation of sound with soft material-based actuators
No full textThis thesis describes a unique parabolic acoustic manipulator with an inflatable structure, which has high gain and directivity. We created a morphable elastomeric reflecting surface with a diameter of 14 cm (6 in). Applying vacuum deforms the device into a concave structure, which provides directional amplification of incoming acoustic waves. In addition, the author characterized the impedance of the soft material employed in the acoustic reflector, Ecoflex 00-10, in an impedance tube. Ecoflex 00-10 has a measured reflection coefficient of approximately 0.9 at frequencies ranging from 500 Hz to 5000 Hz. This new characterization suggests this class of silicone-based elastomers is capable of advanced morphable devices to manipulate sound. Simulations also demonstrate that the soft reflecting surface is capable of transformation into a set of desired parabolic shapes between an initial planar geometry (neutral position) and a configuration with maximum curvature. With an applied vacuum, the membrane reaches its maximum deformation limited by the aluminum housing. At this stage of actuation, experimental results show the deformed membrane has similar gain and directionality (polar response) as rigid parabolic reflectors. This type of system might find future uses for adjustable parabolic microphones and long-range communication devices.M.S.Includes bibliographical referencesby Yanjun Wan
Phase Change Emulsion Gel for Smart Windows With Bidirectional Light Regulating and Energy Storage Based on Refractive Index Matching
No full textABSTRACT The growing demand for green, low‐carbon, and sustainable development has driven the advancement of window materials that integrate adaptive light modulation with energy conservation for residential and industrial buildings. This paper presented a systematic strategy using a phase change emulsion gel to construct smart windows capable of thermal energy storage and release. Based on the thermoresponsive behavior of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) as the matrix, combined with the solid–liquid phase change of the oil phase and a refractive index matching mechanism between the water and oil phase, the smart glass achieved bidirectional coordinated tunability in transmittance, haze, and thermal management with a high enthalpy of 96.56 J g −1 . Within the operating temperature range from 24°C to 40°C, the total transmittance remained consistently above 85 %, while the haze can be continuously adjusted from 3.98 % to 78.98 % in response to ambient temperature. Prototype validation in residential/office buildings and agricultural facilities demonstrated broad adaptability and scalability, indicating strong potential to support the green and sustainable transformation of the construction sector.National Natural Science Foundation of China https://doi.org/10.13039/50110000180
Impact of Adult Attachment Anxiety on Deception Judgments: Examining the Moderating Effect of Motivation
No full text Several psychologists have paid attention to individual differences in deception detection, but only a few studies have found significant results. The present study aimed to explore the relationship between attachment anxiety and deception judgment when there are no obvious cues to distinguish lies from truth, and to examine the moderating effect of motives. Participants were instructed to judge each of 10 audios on whether they were true or false. Subsequently, the attachment anxiety of participants was assessed using the Experiences in Close Relationships questionnaire. Results revealed that, compared with people who had low attachment anxiety, those with high attachment anxiety tend to have higher truth biases in the low-motive condition and lower accuracy in the high-motive condition. </jats:p
Alignment-guided chunking
No full textWe introduce an adaptable monolingual chunking approach–Alignment-Guided Chunking (AGC)–which makes use of knowledge of word alignments acquired from bilingual
corpora. Our approach is motivated by the observation that a sentence should be chunked differently depending
the foreseen end-tasks. For example, given the different
requirements of translation into (say) French and German, it is inappropriate to chunk up an English string in exactly the same way as preparation for translation into one
or other of these languages. We test our chunking approach
on two language pairs: French–English and German–English, where these two bilingual corpora share the same English sentences. Two chunkers trained on French–English
(FE-Chunker) and German–English(DE-Chunker ) respectively are used to perform chunking on the same English sentences. We construct two test sets, each suitable for French–
English and German–English respectively. The performance of the two chunkers is evaluated on the appropriate test set and with one reference translation only, we report Fscores
of 32.63% for the FE-Chunker and 40.41% for the DE-Chunker
Anomalous Hall magnetoresistance in a ferromagnet
No full textThe anomalous Hall effect, observed in conducting ferromagnets with broken time-reversal symmetry, offers the possibility to couple spin and orbital degrees of freedom of electrons in ferromagnets. In addition to charge, the anomalous Hall effect also leads to spin accumulation at the surfaces perpendicular to both the current and magnetization direction. Here, we experimentally demonstrate that the spin accumulation, subsequent spin backflow, and spin-charge conversion can give rise to a different type of spin current-related spin current related magnetoresistance, dubbed here as the anomalous Hall magnetoresistance, which has the same angular dependence as the recently discovered spin Hall magnetoresistance. The anomalous Hall magnetoresistance is observed in four types of samples: co-sputtered (Fe1-xMnx)(0.6)Pt-0.4, Fe1-xMnx/Pt multilayer, Fe1-xMnx with x = 0.17-0.65 and Fe, and analyzed using the drift-diffusion model. Our results provide an alternative route to study charge-spin conversion in ferromagnets and to exploit it for potential spintronic applications
