Abstract: A fabrication method for a steel thin-walled tailor-welded part and a hot-stamped part prepared by using the tailored welded part, the method comprising: using steel plates (10, 10, 20) to be welded which have an aluminum or aluminum alloy coating (12, 12?, 22, 22?) is used; by means of adjusting the composition of a shielding gas (50) and the composition of a welding wire (30) during a welding process, in combination with the control of the welding speed and wire-feeding speed, controlling the content of free aluminum in a weld seam to be 0.1 to 4.0 wt. %, which prevents the production of iron-aluminum intermetallic compounds in the weld seam during a tailor welding process while ensuring that an appropriate amount of ferrite which is distributed in a dispersed manner is produced in the weld seam. The weld seam structure of the obtained tailor-welded part is +1 to 15 vol. % martensite, +0 to 5 vol. % ferrite which is distributed in a dispersed manner, and the remainder is austenite.

Abstract: A density inversion method comprises acquiring local gravity anomalies of a target body to be measured at many measurement points within a target measurement area; acquiring information of distance between a center position of an area the target body being located and a specified boundary of the target measurement area; determining a target inversion depth to be used in density inversion for the target body based on the information of distance and the specified depth; and substituting the local gravity anomaly of the target body at each measurement point and the target inversion depth into a preset layer density inversion formula which is a transform formula of a density inversion formula in the case of a constant density in a longitudinal cross-section, to obtain a density distribution of the target body in a transverse cross-section. The accuracy of the density distribution obtained through the density inversion can be improved.

A system can determine, for a first time interval, a difference between an expected acceleration of a vehicle and an actual acceleration of the vehicle measured via one or more sensors of the vehicle. The system can detect, for the first time interval, a condition for the vehicle to increase a first slip target set for the vehicle. The system can increase the first slip target set for the vehicle to a second slip target responsive to the difference greater than or equal to a threshold and the detection of the condition.

Abstract: In a wireless charging transmitter, an output end of an inverter is connected to a transmitter LCC network; an output end of the transmitter LCC network is connected to a transmit coil; and a switch circuit is connected to the transmitter LCC network. The receiver includes a receiver LCC network. When a real part of a first output impedance of the inverter is greater than a real part of a second output impedance of the inverter, a transmitter controller controls the switch circuit to act, so that the wireless charging system works in a double-sided LCC network. When the real part of the first output impedance is less than or equal to the real part of the second output impedance, the transmitter controller controls the switch circuit to act, so that the wireless charging system works in a single-sided LCC network.

Abstract: Traction control using multiple actuators is provided. A system can identify a slip for a vehicle wheel based on a difference between a wheel motion and a vehicle motion. The system can determine an amount of torque to apply to the wheel to adjust the slip to satisfy the slip target. The system can distribute a first portion of the torque to apply to the wheel via a first actuator of the plurality of actuators and a second portion of the torque to apply to the wheel via a second actuator of the plurality of actuators. The system can provide commands to cause the first actuator to apply the first portion of the amount of torque and cause the second actuator to apply the second portion of the amount of torque to adjust the slip of the wheel.

Abstract: The technology of this application relates to a foreign object detection apparatus that includes a controller, a first resonant network, a signal coupler, and a phase difference detector. The signal coupler may obtain a resonance current signal corresponding to the first resonant network, and couple the resonance current signal to a preset carrier signal to obtain a coupled current signal. A frequency of the preset carrier signal can be the same as a frequency of an excitation signal. The phase difference detector may extract a low-frequency signal component from the coupled current signal, and determine a phase difference signal based on the low-frequency signal component. An amplitude of the phase difference signal correspondingly indicates a phase difference between the excitation signal and the resonance current signal. The controller may determine, based on the amplitude of the phase difference signal, whether a foreign object exists in a detection area corresponding to the first resonant network.

Abstract: A foreign object detection apparatus and method, and a wireless charger. In the foreign object detection apparatus, a signal generation module generates a first calibration excitation signal based on first indication information received from a processing module and generates at least two first calibration carrier signals based on the first indication information. A phase difference detection module determines, based on each first calibration carrier signal and a first current signal obtained by a foreign object detection module under an action of the first calibration excitation signal, a first phase difference between each first calibration carrier signal and the first current signal. The processing module determines a target initial phase based on the first phase difference, and then generates second indication information. The second indication information indicates the signal generation module to generate a detection carrier signal whose initial phase is the target initial phase.

Abstract: A power generating method for a wireless power transmission device includes the following steps. Firstly, a power transmitting circuit is switched between an enabled state and a disabled state. When the power transmitting circuit is in the enabled state, the power transmitting circuit emits a first power and the power receiving circuit converts the first power into a second power. Then, the second power is converted into an output power, and the second power is converted into an auxiliary power. If the first power is not received by a power receiving circuit, the above steps are repeated. If the first power is received by the power receiving circuit, the power transmitting circuit is continuously in the enabled state, so that the auxiliary power is continuously generated.
