Electrochemical Investigation of Cerium Conversion Coatings Deposited on Porous Film of Anodized Aluminum
LI Guo-qiang, LI Di, GUO Bao-lan, PENG Ming-xia
2001, 27(5): 495-498.
Abstract:
Cerium-rich conversion coatings was deposited on porous film of anodized aluminum by cathodic electrolysis in a solution containing 1g/L CeCl3·7H2O and 2.7g/L H2O2. Electrochemical and chemical reactions related with coating formation were studied using electrochemical methods such as cyclic voltammetry, φ-t  curve and j-t  curve tests. It was revealed that the formation of cerium conversion coatings involves a chemical dissolution process of anodized film and an electroreduction process of 4-valent-state cerium compound. Reduction of H2O2 was considered to be the major factor responsible for the occurrence of the two processes, by changing the local pH at surface of anodized film before cathodic potential reached up to hydrogen evolution potential. While the reduction of O2 was unable to trigger the occurrence of the above processes.

Lü Shan-wei, GAO Wen-jun
2001, 27(5): 529-531.
Abstract:
The method of moments was employed, in conjunction with the equivalent-source technique and the modal expansion theory, to analyze multi-groove and multi-mode circular radiators. No restriction was imposed on the number, width and depth of grooves, so the theoretical method and the analytical formulation are applicable to the analysis and design of wide-ranging coaxial grooved radiators. The problem of radiation from a multi-groove and multi-mode circular radiator embedded in an infinite ground plane was solved first. Then, expressions representing the elevation-plane patterns of the radiator embedded in a finite ground plane was derived using Geometrical Theory of Diffraction(GTD). The expressions for the field pattern were obtained by superposing the infinite ground plane solutions, the first-order diffracted field solutions and the axial caustic solutions in their respective regions of validity. The calculation results are in agreement with experiment measurements.
Identification of Frequency Domain Maximum Likelihood System Using Genetic Algorithm
DUAN Shi-zhong, ZHOU Yin-qing
2001, 27(5): 532-535.
Abstract:
Float point genetic algorithms were used to solve the start value and convergence problems of frequency domain maximum likelihood system identification, based on errors-in-variables model. Simulations showed that it is difficult to get accurate result only using the genetic algorithm, while the traditional non-linear iterative optimization methods may lead to convergence to local minimum in some cases. By taking the advantages and overcoming the defects of the above two methods, an improved algorithm was proposed which can give the start value of delay directly and can find the global minimum precisely within a rather short time, even when cost function has a lot of local minima. In addition, the improved algorithm exhibited broader adaptability than the old ones.
