Laser-induced graphene (LIG) has been widely used in flexible sensors due to its excellent mechanical properties and high conductivity. In this paper, a flexible pressure sensor prepared by bionic micro/nanostructure design and LIG mass fraction regulation is reported. First, prepared LIG and conductive carbon paste (CCP) solutions were mixed to obtain a conductive polymer. After the taro leaf structure was etched on the surface of the aluminum alloy plate by Nd:YAG laser processing, the conductive polymer was evenly coated on the template. Pressure sensors were packaged with a stencil transfer printing combined with an Ecoflex flexible substrate. Finally, the effects of different laser flux and the proportion of LIG in the composite on the sensitivity of the sensor are discussed. The results show that when the laser flux is 71.66 J·cm⁻² and the mass fraction of LIG is 5%, the sensor has the best response characteristics, with a response time and a recovery time of 86 ms and 101 ms, respectively, with a sensitivity of 1.2 kPa⁻¹ over a pressure range of 0–6 kPa, and stability of 650 cycle tests. The LIG/CCP sensor with a bionic structure demonstrates its potential in wearable devices.

This article proposes a method for compiling the load spectra of reducers for hybrid electric vehicles. Selecting typical working conditions for real vehicle data collection, the load data under each typical working condition were divided into five categories according to the state of the power source and the data were preprocessed. The optimal sample loads for compiling load spectra were obtained based on a multi-criteria decision-making method, rainflow counting for optimal sample loads was performed according to different power source output patterns, non-parametric extrapolation was performed to obtain the full-life two-dimensional load spectrum after dimensionality reduction, and a full-life eight-level programmed load spectrum that could be used for bench tests was obtained. Using the programmed load spectrum and the extracted sample load as the load input, a fatigue life prediction simulation of the reducer gear of a hybrid electric vehicle was carried out. The reducer gear fatigue life from the programmed load spectrum was compared to the gear fatigue life under actual load. The fatigue life of the reducer gear when the programmed load spectrum was used as the input was 1.412 × 10³. When the actual load was used as the input load, the fatigue life of the reducer gear was 1.933 × 10³. The relative error between the two is only 26%, which is in the normal range. The results show that the programmed load spectrum is effective and reliable and that the load spectrum compilation method provides a basis for accurately evaluating the reliability of the hybrid electric vehicle reducer.

Detection rapidity and model accuracy are the keys to hyperspectral nondestructive testing technology, especially for Pennisetum sinese Roxb (PsR) due to its extremely high adsorptive heavy metal content. The study of the resolution of PsR is conducive to the analysis of the accumulated heavy metal content in its different parts. In this paper, the contents of Cd, Cu and Zn accumulated in the old leaves, young leaves, upper stem, middle stem and lower stem, as well as the hyperspectral data of the corresponding parts, were measured simultaneously in both fresh and dry states. To begin, the spectral data of PsR were preprocessed by using Ensemble Empirical Mode Decomposition-Daubechies3 (EEMD-db3), Savitzky–Golay (SG), Symlet3 (sym3), Symlet5 (sym5), and multiplicative scatter correction (MSC). The 40 samples were divided into 32 training sets and 8 validation sets. The preprocessed spectral data were transformed by the first derivative (FD) and reciprocal logarithm (log(1/R)) to highlight the singularities using binary wavelet decomposition. After screening the significant bands from the correlation curve, the competitive adaptive reweighted sampling (CARS) and successive projection algorithm (SPA) were applied to extract the spectral characteristic variables, which were used to establish the partial least-squares (PLS) regression and multiple stepwise linear regression (MSLR) inversion models of Cd, Cu, and Zn contents. Based on EEMD-db3 pretreatment, the inversion model of Zn in the dry (fresh) state had R² values of 0.884 (0.880), NRMSE values of 0.179 (0.253) and RPD values of 3.191 (3.221), indicating excellent stability and predictive performance. The findings of this study can not only aid in the rapid nondestructive detection of heavy metal adsorption in various parts of PsR, but can also be applied to guide the development and use of animal feed.
