  • Publication number: 20210074900
    Abstract: The invention relates to a process for manufacturing a ZrNiSn-based half-Heusler thermoelectric material and regulating antisite defects therein, including the steps of: mixing zirconium (Zr), nickel (Ni), and stannum (Sn) at an atomic ratio of Zr: Ni: Sn=1:1:1; forming an ingot by melting the mixture in a levitation melting furnace; milling the ingot to form a milled powder followed by drying; sintering the dried powder by spark plasma sintering; and placing the sintered powder in a vacuum vessel to be subjected to heat treatment and then quenching treatment to obtain the ZrNiSn-based half-Heusler thermoelectric material. The process is simple, easy to control, and results in a single phase ZrNiSn-based half-Heusler thermoelectric material with antisite defects.

  • Publication number: 20210064943
    Abstract: Described herein are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media for constructing and utilizing vehicle field-of-view (FOV) information. The FOV information can be utilized in connection with vehicle localization such as localization of an autonomous vehicle (AV), sensor data fusion, or the like. A customized computing machine can be provided that is configured to construct and utilize the FOV information. The customized computing machine can utilize the FOV information, and more specifically, FOV semantics data included therein to manage various data and execution patterns relating to processing performed in connection with operation of an AV such as, for example, data prefetch operations, reordering of sensor data input streams, and allocation of data processing among multiple processing cores.

  • Publication number: 20200239984
    Abstract: The present invention provides a radiation resistant high-entropy alloy and a preparation method thereof. A general formula of the radiation resistant high-entropy alloy is TiZrHfVMoTaxNby, where 0.05?x?0.25, 0.05?y?0.5, and x and y are molar ratios. The preparation method of the radiation resistant high-entropy alloy comprises the following steps: mixing Ti, Zr, Hf, V, Mo, Ta, and Nb in order, and conducting vacuum levitation induction melting or vacuum arc melting, to obtain the radiation resistant high-entropy alloy. The high-entropy alloy in the present invention has an excellent irradiation resistance, and does not suffer radiation hardening damage under simulated helium ion irradiation. When helium bubbles are of same sizes as those of conventional alloy, the bubble density of the high-entropy alloy is far lower than that of the conventional alloy, and the lattice constant thereof decreases abnormally after irradiation.
