With the economic growth of our country and the continuous improvement of people’s living standards, cars have begun to enter thousands of households and become a necessity for people. However, the rapid growth of the number of automobiles has led to a sustained increase in carbon dioxide emissions and a significant decline in urban air quality, which seriously restricts the sustainable development of cities. With the introduction of the national air quality protection policy, electric vehicles will eventually replace the existing fuel vehicles and become a new generation of transportation for people to travel. At the same time, the large expansion of the number of cars has increased the hidden dangers of traffic accidents. In order to ensure the safety of pedestrians, drivers are given a more intelligent driving environment. This paper presents the research of pedestrian detection and pedestrian distance algorithm based on image processing. By comparing the performance of pedestrian detection algorithm based on SSD with traditional HOG+SVM pedestrian detection algorithm, the results of pedestrian–vehicle distance calculation are detected, and the feasibility and effectiveness of the algorithm are obtained. The results show that the proposed algorithm has good feasibility and practicability, and provide a good reference for the research of pedestrian detection algorithm for electric vehicles.

Abstract In this paper, a new advanced topology of stacked multicell inverter is proposed which is generally suitable for high number of steps associated with a low number of switches. Compared with traditional flying capacitor multicell and stacked multicell (SM) inverters, doubling the number of output voltage levels and the RMS value, ameliorating the output voltage frequency spectrum, decreasing the number and rating of components, stored energy and rating of flying capacitors are available with the proposed inverter. These improvements are achieved by adding only four low-frequency switches to the traditional SM inverter’s structure. The suggested topology is simulated using MATLAB/SIMULINK software, and simulation results are presented to indicate well-performance of the novel converter. In addition, the experimental results of proposed topology prototype have been presented to validate its practicability.

The Impact

This paper discusses the impact of a new generation of mobile communications, Mobile Satellite Services (MSS), on the reception of GLONASS signals in the future. The two systems are very closely located in the frequency spectrum, and the effect of this co-location has been derived. It is shown that the performance of GLONASS in a future GNSS-1 will be heavily affected by the current emissions proposed by the Globalstar consortium.

The use of high resolution electron microscopy (HREM) to determine the atomic structure of grain boundaries and interfaces is a topic of great current interest. Grain boundary structure has been considered for many years as central to an understanding of the mechanical and transport properties of materials. Some more recent attention has focussed on the atomic structures of metalsemiconductor interfaces which are believed to control electrical properties of contacts. The atomic structures of interfaces in semiconductor or metal multilayers is an area of growing interest for understanding the unusual electrical or mechanical properties which these new materials possess. However, although the point-to-point resolutions of currently available HREMs, ∼2-3Å, appear sufficient to solve many of these problems, few atomic models of grain boundaries and interfaces have been derived. Moreover, with a new generation of 300-400kV instruments promising resolutions in the 1.6-2.0 Å range, and resolutions better than 1.5Å expected from specialist instruments, it is an appropriate time to consider the usefulness of HREM for interface studies.

In 1955, Buonocore introduced the etching of enamel with phosphoric acid. Bonding to enamel was created by mechanical interlocking of resin tags with enamel prisms. Enamel is an inert tissue whose main component is hydroxyapatite (98% by weight). Conversely, dentin is a wet living tissue crossed by tubules containing cellular extensions of the dental pulp. Dentin consists of 18% of organic material, primarily collagen. Several generations of dentin bonding systems (DBS) have been studied in the last 20 years. The dentin bond strengths associated with these DBS have been constantly lower than the enamel bond strengths. Recently, a new generation of DBS has been described. They are applied in three steps: an acid agent on enamel and dentin (total etch technique), two mixed primers and a bonding agent based on a methacrylate resin. They are supposed to bond composite resin to wet dentin through dentin organic component, forming a peculiar blended structure that is part tooth and part resin: the hybrid layer.

Scanning Electron

Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) of polymers at routine operating voltages of 15 to 25 keV can lead to beam damage and sample image distortion due to charging. Imaging polymer samples with low accelerating voltages (0.1 to 2.0 keV), at or near the “crossover point”, can reduce beam damage, eliminate charging, and improve contrast of surface detail. However, at low voltage, beam brightness is reduced and image resolution is degraded due to chromatic aberration. A new generation of instruments has improved brightness at low voltages, but a typical SEM with a tungsten hairpin filament will have a resolution limit of about 100nm at 1keV. Recently, a new field emission gun (FEG) SEM, the Hitachi S900, was introduced with a reported resolution of 0.8nm at 30keV and 5nm at 1keV. In this research we are reporting the results of imaging coated and uncoated polymer samples at accelerating voltages between 1keV and 30keV in a tungsten hairpin SEM and in the Hitachi S900 FEG SEM.

The confocal laser scanning microscope has become a powerful tool in the study of the 3-dimensional distribution of proteins and specific nucleic acid sequences in cells and tissues. This is also proving to be true for a new generation of high contrast intermediate voltage electron microscopes (IVEM). Until recently, the number of labeling techniques that could be employed to allow examination of the same sample with both confocal and IVEM was rather limited. One method that can be used to take full advantage of these two technologies is fluorescence photooxidation. Specimens are labeled by a fluorescent dye and viewed with confocal microscopy followed by fluorescence photooxidation of diaminobenzidine (DAB). In this technique, a fluorescent dye is used to photooxidize DAB into an osmiophilic reaction product that can be subsequently visualized with the electron microscope. The precise reaction mechanism by which the photooxidation occurs is not known but evidence suggests that the radiationless transfer of energy from the excited-state dye molecule undergoing the phenomenon of intersystem crossing leads to the formation of reactive oxygen species such as singlet oxygen. It is this reactive oxygen that is likely crucial in the photooxidation of DAB.
