ChainQueen: A Real-Time Differentiable Physical Simulator for Soft Robotics
[article]
2018
arXiv
pre-print
Physical simulators have been widely used in robot planning and control. Among them, differentiable simulators are particularly favored, as they can be incorporated into gradient-based optimization algorithms that are efficient in solving inverse problems such as optimal control and motion planning. Simulating deformable objects is, however, more challenging compared to rigid body dynamics. The underlying physical laws of deformable objects are more complex, and the resulting systems have

... of magnitude more degrees of freedom and therefore they are significantly more computationally expensive to simulate. Computing gradients with respect to physical design or controller parameters is typically even more computationally challenging. In this paper, we propose a real-time, differentiable hybrid Lagrangian-Eulerian physical simulator for deformable objects, ChainQueen, based on the Moving Least Squares Material Point Method (MLS-MPM). MLS-MPM can simulate deformable objects including contact and can be seamlessly incorporated into inference, control and co-design systems. We demonstrate that our simulator achieves high precision in both forward simulation and backward gradient computation. We have successfully employed it in a diverse set of control tasks for soft robots, including problems with nearly 3,000 decision variables.
Nonconvex and Nonsmooth Sparse Optimization via Adaptively Iterative Reweighted Methods

2021
arXiv
pre-print
We propose a general formulation of nonconvex and nonsmooth sparse optimization problems with convex set constraint, which can take into account most existing types of nonconvex sparsity-inducing terms, bringing strong applicability to a wide range of applications. We design a general algorithmic framework of iteratively reweighted algorithms for solving the proposed nonconvex and nonsmooth sparse optimization problems, which solves a sequence of weighted convex regularization problems with

... tively updated weights. First-order optimality condition is derived and global convergence results are provided under loose assumptions, making our theoretical results a practical tool for analyzing a family of various reweighted algorithms. The effectiveness and efficiency of our proposed formulation and the algorithms are demonstrated in numerical experiments on various sparse optimization problems.
Analysis of diffraction imaging in non-conjugate configurations
2014
Optics Express
Diffraction imaging of scattered light allows extraction of information on scatterer's morphology. We present a method for accurate simulation of diffraction imaging of single particles by combining rigorous light scattering model with ray-tracing software. The new method has been validated by comparison to measured images of single microspheres. Dependence of fringe patterns on translation of an objective based imager to off-focus positions has been analyzed to clearly understand diffraction

A NOVEL 3d TRANSITION-METAL ALCOCRCUTI HIGH-ENTROPY ALLOY
2021
Materiali in Tehnologije
The phase component, microstructure and compressive properties of a novel 3d transition metal high entropy alloy, AlCoCrCuTi, in as-cast and annealed conditions were investigated. The phases of the as-cast AlCoCrCuTi alloy are composed of primary phase AlCo2Ti (L21), eutectic structure {AlCo2Ti (L21)+ Al3Cr7 (BCC)} and interdendritic phase AlCu2Ti (L21). Through annealing, a rosette feature of the as-cast AlCo2Ti + Al3Cr7 eutectic structure is deteriorated due to the lath-like Al3Cr7 changed to

... finely-divided one. In mechanics performance, the as-cast alloy exhibits a balanced synergy in hardness (593±37 HV) and ultimate strength (745 MPa), while the hardness of the annealed alloy slightly increases to 647±23 HV at the expense of the ultimate strength. Moreover, the alloy either in as-cast or annealed conditions unfortunately display a typically brittle character. The deficiency of elongation might stem from the diversified brittle and hard phases incorporated, such as AlCo2Ti + Al3Cr7.

Rapid and Variable-Volume Sampling Loading in Nonaqueous Microchip Electrophoresis

Journal of the Brazilian Chemical Society
Um esquema rápido e de volume variável de carregamento de amostras para eletroforese nãoaquosa em microchip com fluorescência induzida a laser (NAMCE-LIF) foi desenvolvido, incluindo um plugue de polímero poroso, uma bomba de microvácuo de baixo custo e uma fonte de alta tensão com potencial único. O plugue de polímero poroso foi fabricado dentro do canal de separação como uma válvula de seleção, que impedia o tampão de corrida do reservatório de descarte de tampão (BW) de fluir de volta ao

... l de separação, mas permitia a migração eletroforética ao longo do canal de separação. Aplicando uma pressão subatmosférica ao headspace do reservatório de descarte (SW), amostra e tampão de corrida eram passados imediatamente ao SW. Concomitantemente, uma parte do fluxo de amostra era conduzido através do plugue de polímero poroso pela força elétrica, formando uma zona de amostra no canal de separação. O comprimento da zona de amostra injetada era proporcional ao tempo de injeção. O método proposto foi aplicado com sucesso na separação de Rodamina 123 (Rh123) e Rodamina 6G (Rh6G). Os limites de detecção para Rh123 e Rh6G baseados em S/N = 3 foram 0,63 e 0,48 nmol L -1 , respectivamente. O sistema provou possuir um potencial para aperfeiçoamento de rendimento, repetibilidade, sensibilidade, desempenho da separação da eletroforese não aquosa em microchip e uma ampla gama de aplicações. A rapid and variable-volume sample loading scheme for nonaqueous microchip electrophoresis with laser induced fluorescence detection (NAMCE-LIF) was developed, which included a porous polymer plug, a low-cost microvacuum pump, and a single potential supply. The porous polymer plug was fabricated within the separation channel as a select valve, which prevented the running buffer from buffer waste reservoir (BW) flowing back into the separation channel, but allowed electrophoretic migration along the separation channel. By applying a subatmospheric pressure to the headspace of sample waste reservoir (SW), sample and running buffer were drawn immediately to SW. At the same time, a branch of the sample stream was driven across the porous polymer plug by the electric force and formed a sample zone in the separation channel. The injected sample zone length was in proportion with the injection time. The proposed method was successfully applied to separation of Rhodamine 123 (Rh123) and Rhodamine 6G (Rh6G). The limits of detection for Rh123 and Rh6G based on S/N = 3 were 0.63 and 0.48 nmol L -1 , respectively. The system has been proved to possess an exciting potential for improving throughput, repeatability, sensitivity, separation performance of nonaqueous microchip electrophoresis and a wide range of applications.
