To achieve high-precision wind speed and direction measurements in complex environments, a resonance-state temperature compensation method is proposed based on an ultrasonic resonance principle. This method effectively addresses the issue of sound velocity compensation errors caused by the temperature difference between the internal and external environments when using an internal temperature sensor for temperature compensation. By utilizing an adaptive resonance-state tracking model, the resonance frequency shift issues under varying conditions such as altitude, pressure, and temperature are mitigated.

The surface morphology of the composite coating is relatively flat, showing good hydrophilicity and coating adhesion, and the corrosion current density is significantly lower than that of the untreated titanium alloy. According to the results of the study, the composite coatings containing more than 0.

In this work, the microstructural evolution and influence on hardness of a 7050 alloy ingot, during the process from preheating, deformation and cooling to final heat treatment, have been investigated considering the effect of temperature and the post-deformation cooling path. The results showed that an increasing temperature and decreasing cooling rate during TMP can lead to enhanced hardness of the alloy after heat treatment.

In this retrospective case-control study, the training set included 233 pediatric patients aged 5-17 years (183 children with VVS and 50 with PPS) and the validation set consisted of another 138 patients aged 5-15 years (100 children with VVS and 38 with PPS). In the training set study, the demographic characteristics and clinical presentation of patients were compared between PPS and VVS.
