Smart sport and big data have become inextricably linked with new technologies and devices to monitor sport-related information in real time. In this paper, a lightweight, portable and self-powered triboelectric nanogenerator (LPS-TENG) has been developed to monitor the frequency and force of skaters’ pedaling. Friction layers are formed of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) and nylon films. Based on the triboelectric effect, LPS-TENG does not require an external power supply, and it can be used to monitor biomechanical motion independently. Under the conditions of 1 Hz and 17.19 N, the outputting voltage of LPS-TENG is stabilized at 14 V. Wireless data transmission is achieved with the help of the LPS-TENG and AD module. Visual feedback is provided by the upper computer system in the process of processing data. The wireless intelligent motion correction system is composed of an LPS-TENG, an AD module and a back-end computer. It can clearly analyze the changes between different frequencies and forces during skating. Results showed that the signal of tester’s high-frequency and great-force motion, was transmitted to the computer, and its feedback was given after analysis and processing successfully. The system may help coaches develop training methods, means and tactics to increase athletes’ performance and competitive level in athletic sport. The purpose of this study is to provide new ideas for monitoring skaters’ sport techniques, promote the use of force sensors in the monitoring of sport and develop intelligent assistant training systems.
With the energy crisis and environmental pollution becoming a growing concern worldwide, the development of clean and renewable energy from the environment has become an imperative for human survival and development. However, the equipment used to harvest clean renewable energy is large, subject to environmental impacts and regional differences (such as wind, solar and tidal energy). In this study, a biodegradable eggshell membrane triboelectric nanogenerator (EM-TENG) is introduced for the purpose of harvesting low-frequency mechanical energy. A Wireless Intelligent Motion Monitoring System (WIMMS) has been created using EM-TENG. It includes a Bluetooth sensor terminal and an intelligent processing terminal for digital signal reception on a host computer. The EM-TENG can be attached to knee and ankle joints to monitor posture. Therefore, for real-time monitoring of joint and kinetic chain changes during land training of ice dance athletes, the intelligent ice dance land training aid system is important. As a wearable motion monitoring sensor, EM-TENGs application in intelligent motion monitoring, intelligent wearable devices and big data analytics is being promoted.
Oxide-dispersion-strengthened (ODS) steels are promising material candidates for nuclear fission and fusion applications. Nanosized oxide particles in as-rolled ODS steel PM2000 were investigated by using transmission electron microscopy. Uniformly distributed nanosized particles and heterogeneously distributed large dispersoids were observed in the steel. Three nanosized oxide phase types, Al2Y4O9, Y3Al5O12 and YAlO3, were present in the steel. Nanosized aluminum yttrium oxide Al2Y4O9, which has an orthorhombic P Bravais lattice rather than a monoclinic P Bravais lattice, was identified. Nanosized yttrium aluminum oxides that consisted of Y3Al5O12 and YAlO3 were also identified. The formation mechanism of Al2Y4O9/Y3Al5O12/YAlO3 phases in the steel resulted from the processing (hot-extrusion/hot-rolling) procedures. Al diffusion from the steel matrix into the Y2O3 particle fragments induced the nucleation and growth of the Al2Y4O9/Y3Al5O12/YAlO3 phases.
As a crucial catalyst for worldwide economic expansion, the digital economy (DE) has garnered widespread attention and has been regarded as crucial for the promotion of economic growth and innovation. The development of the DE brings both significant opportunities and challenges to city clusters. It enhances urban competitiveness, improves residents’ quality of life, and strengthens urban governance, which is of great significance for the development of city clusters. In this context, although previous studies comprehensively analyzed the advancement of the DE of certain cities and revealed their strategies, challenges, and successful experiences in the development of their DE, research on the determinants and enhancing pathways of the digital economy development of city clusters (DEDCC) is scant. As the core node of DE development, city clusters, as well as their potential and influence, cannot be ignored. Therefore, this study investigates the Shandong Peninsula Urban Agglomeration in China, constructs a theoretical analysis framework for the DEDCC, and utilizes fsQCA (Fuzzy-set Qualitative Comparative Analysis) to examine the complex causal processes of the DEDCC. The fsQCA method is utilized from a configurational perspective to explore the complex driving mechanisms of DEDCC. The objective is to investigate the pathways for enhancing DEDCC and provide insights for the DE development of other city clusters. Results reveal the following: (1) the reciprocal collaboration between market factors and fundamental factors should be examined to accelerate the high-quality DEDCC. (2) technological innovation (TI) capacity is a crucial determinant of the high-quality DEDCC. (3) the coordinated development of the market, the foundation, and TI should be prioritized to achieve the high-quality DEDCC.
