Wavefront reconstruction and correction under strong atmospheric turbulence conditions have become a crucial issue in adaptive optics. An approach based on plenoptic sensor can precisely reconstruct disturbed wavefront under strong atmospheric turbulence. However, the existing reconstruction algorithm has difficulty in reconstructing residual aberrations.
Fast on-site detection of potentially toxic metals in soils is crucial for soil remediation and contamination monitoring. Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) technology has been used widely in soil remediation, food safety, biomedical analysis, and potentially toxic metal detection in crops. However, the detection of potentially toxic metals in soil by LIBS technology is currently performed in laboratory after drying
The thermal simulation analysis results are used to predict the temperature distribution of the spacecraft in orbit and guide the thermal design layout. Due to the complexity of aerospace instruments,too many thermal design parameters make it impossible to automatically modify the thermal models.
Radiative cooling is a ubiquitous passive cooling process that radiates heat out to the universe through the atmospheric transparency window. Recent advances in nanophotonics have enabled latest breakthroughs in daytime radiative cooling and have inspired intense research efforts in this field.
The Texas horned lizard (Iguanidae: Phrynosoma cornutum) inhabiting arid regions utilizes its dorsal integument to access water sources. Thanks to its highly-evolved integument consisting of microsized overlapping scales showing water repellency and nanosized capillary channels showing water affinity, water can be directed preferentially towards the lizard’s snout, achieving the power-free transportation (Figure 1(a)). Under the inspiration of lizard’s integument, a variety of artificial surfaces with power-free water transportation capacity have been developed because of their wide applications in fog collection, membrane filtration, biomedical testing, and hydropower generation.
With the rapid development of numerical control technology in the industrial field, the accuracy of angular displacement measurement technology has become more demanding.
