Abstract This paper reveals the interplay mechanism between melt pool, spattering and vapors, aiming to further improve the forming quality through in-situ monitoring with a CMOS camera. A Residual Network based on Convolutional Block Attention Module and Focal loss function is proposed to extract multi-scale features of single tracks and learn about their behavior changes. A t-SNE clustering analysis is utilized to analysis a large amount of time sequence data on the melt pool by collecting the schlieren photographs. It is found that patterns of unstable melt pool changing corelate to the defects in single tracks, More >

Abstract The violent interaction between the high-energy laser beam and the 2195 Al-Li alloy dramatically disturbs the fluctuation behavior of the molten pool during welding process, which results in the poor forming quality and severe porosity defects. In this paper, an emerging coaxial hybrid heat source consisting of a 1080nm fiber laser and a 915nm diode laser is employed in the welding of 2195 Al-Li alloy in order to obtain the more stable molten pool. The distribution characteristics of the fiber-diode laser beam intensity were researched to reveal the energy coupling mechanism. The is-situ observation experiment More >

Abstract Invar alloy is widely used in the field of aeronautical composite die manufacturing because it has a very low coefficient of thermal expansion, which is like that of composite material. The laser-MIG (Metal-Inert Gas) hybrid welding was developed to join 10 mm thick Invar alloy plates using Invar M93 filling wire. High speed camera equipment was used to observe plasma dynamic processes. Three-dimensional finite element models of laser-MIG hybrid welding process were established to solve the flow field of the molten pool by two leading modes. Elaborated on the flow behavior of the molten pool More >

Abstract High heat dissipation is required for miniaturization and increasing the power of electronic systems. Pool boiling is a promising option for achieving efficient heat dissipation at low wall superheat without the need for moving parts. Many studies have focused on improving heat transfer efficiency during boiling by modifying the surface of the heating element. This paper presents an experimental investigation on improving pool boiling heat transfer using an open microchannel. The primary goal of this work is to investigate the impact of the channel geometry characteristics on boiling heat transfer. Initially, rectangular microchannels were prepared… More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract In convolutional neural networks, pooling methods are used to reduce both the size of the data and the number of parameters after the convolution of the models. These methods reduce the computational amount of convolutional neural networks, making the neural network more efficient. Maximum pooling, average pooling, and minimum pooling methods are generally used in convolutional neural networks. However, these pooling methods are not suitable for all datasets used in neural network applications. In this study, a new pooling approach to the literature is proposed to increase the efficiency and success rates of convolutional neural… More >

Abstract In cornfields, factors such as the similarity between corn seedlings and weeds and the blurring of plant edge details pose challenges to corn and weed segmentation. In addition, remote areas such as farmland are usually constrained by limited computational resources and limited collected data. Therefore, it becomes necessary to lighten the model to better adapt to complex cornfield scene, and make full use of the limited data information. In this paper, we propose an improved image segmentation algorithm based on unet. Firstly, the inverted residual structure is introduced into the contraction path to reduce the… More >

Abstract A two-dimensional multi-physics finite element model is developed to simulate the Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) process using Inconel 625 powders. The validity of the developed model is first assessed by comparing its results with experimental data. Various factors such as phase transition, recoil pressure, surface tension, and the Marangoni force are considered. The study’s findings underscore that the morphology and thermal-fluid dynamics of the molten pool in the SLS process are predominantly shaped by the influence of the Marangoni force and recoil pressure acting on its surface. The recoil pressure at the front of the… More >

Abstract Due to the time-varying topology and possible disturbances in a conflict environment, it is still challenging to maintain the mission performance of flying Ad hoc networks (FANET), which limits the application of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) swarms in harsh environments. This paper proposes an intelligent framework to quickly recover the cooperative coverage mission by aggregating the historical spatio-temporal network with the attention mechanism. The mission resilience metric is introduced in conjunction with connectivity and coverage status information to simplify the optimization model. A spatio-temporal node pooling method is proposed to ensure all node location features… More >

Abstract Due to the rapid evolution of Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs) attacks, the emergence of new and rare attack samples, and even those never seen before, make it challenging for traditional rule-based detection methods to extract universal rules for effective detection. With the progress in techniques such as transfer learning and meta-learning, few-shot network attack detection has progressed. However, challenges in few-shot network attack detection arise from the inability of time sequence flow features to adapt to the fixed length input requirement of deep learning, difficulties in capturing rich information from original flow in the case… More >
