Abstract: A display substrate and a manufacturing method thereof, and a display device are disclosed. The display substrate includes a base substrate, a plurality of sub-pixels, at least one group of contact pads, and a first insulation layer. The base substrate includes a display region and a bonding region located at one side of the display region. At least one group of contact pads includes a plurality of contact pads, at least one of the plurality of contact pads includes a first contact pad metal layer and a second contact pad metal layer, the second contact pad metal layer covers an edge of the first contact pad metal layer. The first insulation layer is located in gaps between the plurality of contact pads and covers edges of the plurality of contact pads, and is configured to expose surfaces of the plurality of contact pads facing away from the base substrate.

Abstract: The cleaning control method for a cleaning robot includes: the base station performs a round of cleaning on a cleaning component of the cleaning robot according to a set cleaning strategy; the base station detects a dirtiness of the sewage after cleaning after completing a round of cleaning, to obtain a detection result; and the base station performs a next round of cleaning control on the cleaning robot according to the detection result.

Abstract: The invention discloses the synthesis of a new-type chitosan-based hybrid macromolecule and a method for producing or using the macromolecule. This macromolecule comprises an amphiphatic chitosan and a silicon-based coupling agent that is anchored by a chemical bonding. The method for producing the hybrid macromolecule can be easily operated under ambient environment. The produced macromolecule can be self-assembled in an aqueous environment to form a nanocarrier, and has the ability to efficiently encapsulate drugs for a subsequent sustained release purpose. This self-assembled hybrid nanocarrier demonstrated features of excellent biocompatibility, drug loading ability and cellular uptake efficiency.

Abstract: A fast direct method for the solution of structured linear systems of equations. A linear system with a matrix that possesses larger submatrices that are of low ranck (to some precision).

Abstract: This invention discloses of a muffler and catalytic converter device, and in addition, a muffler, and a catalytic converter, wherein each type of device uses a porous metal that may function as the sound absorption material for the muffler part of the device, and the substrate for the catalyst coating for the catalytic converter part of the device. In order to be effectiveness as a substrate and to have good sound absorption, the porous metal has a pore density of between 80% and 98% and a pore diameter of between 20 &mgr;m and 1200 &mgr;m. The porous metal provides structural strength, and is resistant to corrosion, heat, and impact from exhaust flow. It is also easy and cheap to fabricate. For the muffler and catalytic converter device, by combining the customary two devices into one, the cost of production as well as the cost of installation for the device is lowered.
