Abstract: The present invention provides a method for acquiring the load operation probability of an electric power consumer and a method for acquiring the load operation probability of electric power consumer groups. The load information and the total power consumption information of an electric power consumer and the load information and the total power consumption information of electric power consumer groups can be given. The time-segment power consumption information of an electric power consumer and electric power consumer groups can be given. The load operation probability of an electric power consumer and electric power consumer groups can be given by calculations using algorithms.

Abstract: Durable and optically transparent superhydrophobic surfaces have a coating of ceramic nanoparticles attached to a transparent substrate that are bound to the substrate through a flexible linker and a fluorocarbon moiety is bound to the surface of the ceramic nanoparticles. The nanoparticles provide the topography required for superhydrophobic surfaces and the fluorocarbon attached to the surface renders the particles hydrophobic. The nanoparticles can be metal oxide nanoparticles of dimensions that do not scatter light and the flexible linker can be constructed by an agent that has a group for bonding to the substrate and a reactive group to form a bond with a complementary second reactive group attached to a second agent that has a group for bonding to the nanoparticles.

Abstract: An overcoat that imparts a superhydrophobic surface to a painted surface of an object is a suspension of hydrophobic particles in a polymeric binder and a plasticizer in a solvent or mixed solvent. The particles are a metal oxide that is surface functionalized with a fluorinated alkyl silane or an alkyl silane. Surfaces coated using this paint display contact angles in excess of 150° and resist abrasion while retaining superhydrophobicity.

Abstract: A paint that imparts a superhydrophobic surface on an object is a suspension of hydrophobic particles in a polymeric binder and a plasticizer in a solvent or mixed solvent. The particles are a metal oxide that is surface functionalized with a fluorinated alkyl silane or an alkyl silane. The binder is a mixture of PDVF and PMMA in a ratio of 3:1 to 10:1. The plasticizer is a mixture of triethylphosphate and perfluoro(butyltetrahydrofuran) or other perfluorinated hydrocarbon. Surfaces coated using this paint display contact angles in excess of 150° and resist abrasion.

Abstract: A superhydrophobic ceramic coating that is transparent and durable includes a dispersion of a multiplicity of silica nanoparticles stacked to form a topography that is rough that is infused with and conformally coated with a sol-gel glass matrix that has a fluoroalkyl silane or an alkyl silane monolayer on the surface of the coating. The silica nanoparticles do not scatter light to a large extent as they are sufficiently small and free of aggregation. The sol-gel glass is formed from a trialkoxysilane precursor and applied to the stacked silica nanoparticles to retain the rough topography of the deposited nanoparticles.

Abstract: An insect trap that is effective for Cimex I. comprises an area of rigid pillars and/or hooks where these features extend from a base. The density of the features can vary from being sufficient to inhibit the trajectory of an insect through the features or to reside and travel on the top of the features. The features can be of a thickness of less than or about that of the insect's legs and the height of the features is at least the height of the insect. The features can be of a height of about the cross-section of an insect's leg. The features can be of a thickness of four microns or less and provide a plastron surface such that the surface can be employed in conjunction with a holding chamber and oriented where a portion of the surface is vertical or inverted such that the insect's foot-tip cannot adhere to or be supported by the surface.

Abstract: A screen unlocking method with time information, a screen unlocking system with time information, and a recording medium are provided, and the method is applicable to an electronic device. The unlocking method includes the following steps: first, obtaining unlocking information through a detection module, where the unlocking information includes an unlocking instruction set and an unlocking time series; judging, by using an operation processing module, whether the unlocking instruction set and the unlocking time series in the unlocking information conform to a preset unlocking instruction set and a preset unlocking time series in preset unlocking information respectively; and if the unlocking instruction set and the unlocking time series conform to the preset unlocking instruction set and the preset unlocking time series respectively, enabling a touch display module to be unlocked and to correspondingly enter an operation picture with an application function.
