The evolution of surface functional groups (SFGs) and the graphitization degree of soot generated in premixed methane flames are studied and the correlation between them is discussed. Test soot samples were obtained from an optimized thermophoretic sampling system and probe sampling system. The SFGs of soot were determined by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) after removing the soluble impurities from the soot samples, while the graphitization degree of soot was characterized by Raman spectrum and electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS). The results reveal that the number of aliphatic C-H groups and C=O groups shows an initial increase and then decrease in the sooting history. The large amount of aliphatic C-H groups and small amount of aromatic C-H groups in the early stage of the soot mass growth process indicate that aliphatic C-H groups make a major contribution to the early stage of soot mass growth.

This paper proposed a path coordination strategy for autonomous parking based on independently designed parking lot topological map. The strategy merges two types of paths at the three stages of path planning, to determinate mode switching timing between low-speed automated driving and automated parking. Firstly, based on the principle that parking spaces should be parallel or vertical to a corresponding path, a topological parking lot map is designed by using the point cloud data collected by LiDAR sensor. This map is consist of road node coordinates, adjacent matrix and parking space information. Secondly, the direction and lateral distance of the parking space to the last node of global path are used to decide parking type and direction at parking planning stage. Finally, the parking space node is used to connect global path and parking path at path coordination stage.

In order to achieve high precision measurement with low manufacturing process, we propose a new angular displacement measurement method, which uses light filed as a measurement medium and can realize simultaneous measurement of whole circumference. Firstly, through the orthogonal modulation of time and space for the ring light field, four channels of standing wave light field uniformly distributed along the circumference are obtained. Then, electric traveling wave signal is synthesized by photoelectric conversion and phase-shifting processing. Finally, the angular displacement is measured by using the method of phase discrimination through calculating the phase difference between electric traveling wave signal and reference signal. Through the derivation of the sensor measurement principle, the error characteristics of the sensor caused by non-uniform distribution of light field are analyzed.
