Abstract: A squatting bionic device of a human lower-limb joint is provided. In the squatting bionic device, a vertical support plate is provided on the device with a sliding table, which is driven by a first motor to slide up and down in a height direction of the vertical support plate or to be fixed on the vertical support plate. A horizontal fixed shaft is fixed on the sliding table. The middle of the fixed shaft is connected with a femoral shaft through a first universal joint. A lower end of the femoral shaft is fixedly connected with a lower femur simulation block. A wire rope is wound around a rotation shaft of a second motor fixed on a base. One end of the wire rope is fixed on the rotation shaft of the second motor, and the other end thereof extends upwards.

Abstract: A monitoring method and device for determination of a gear-stick position, a vehicle control unit, and a vehicle. The monitoring method for determination of a gear-stick position includes: acquiring a first actual gear-stick position and a first acceptable gear-stick position calculated by a functional layer; calculating a second actual gear-stick position according to a gear-stick position signal; determining whether the first actual gear-stick position and the second actual gear-stick position are consistent; in case that the first actual gear-stick position and the second actual gear-stick position are consistent, determining whether the first acceptable gear-stick position is valid; and in case that the first actual gear-stick position and the second actual gear-stick position are inconsistent or the first acceptable gear-stick position is invalid, controlling the vehicle to enter a safe state. The present application can ensure safe driving of a vehicle.

Abstract: Composite materials are provided that include a host material, nanoscale high conductive particles, and microscale high conductive particles. The nanoscale high conductive particles and the microscale high conductive particles may increase the through thickness thermal conductivity of the composite material by at least 4.0 W/(m·K), as compared to the same composite material without the nanoscale high conductive particles and microscale high conductive particles. Methods for making the composite materials herein also are provided.

Abstract: A method for quasi-synchronous tuning of laser wavelength or frequency of grating external-cavity laser and a corresponding laser are provided. A grating or mirror is rotated around a quasi-synchronous tuning point (Pq) to achieve the quasi-synchronous tuning of frequency selections by grating and resonance cavity, wherein, on the xOy coordinate plane, from the perspective of actual physical space of the laser, the rotation center Pq(xq, yq) satisfying the quasi-synchronous tuning condition can be considered as being extended from the rotation center P0(x0, y0) under the conventional synchronous tuning condition to the region enclosed by two parabolas near P0. According to the present disclosure, approximately-synchronous tuning of laser is achieved with simple and flexible designs.
