Lithium titanate has unique "zero-strain" characteristics, which makes it promising for rapid energy storage lithium-ion capacitors. However, extremely low electronic conductivity and lithium ion diffusion coefficient severely limit its performance at high rate. Herein, we have constructed in situ clusters of porous lithium titanate nanoparticles on self-supporting carbon nanotube film by combining iron oxide hard template method and F127 soft template method. Due to the nano-structured particle size and the penetrating lithium ion transmission channel, a greatly improved lithium ion diffusion coefficient has been achieved, which brings significantly better electrochemical performance than dense lithium titanate. By assembling with a durable graphene foam cathode, a lithium-ion capacitor with an energy density of up to 101.8 Wh kg-1 was realized(at a power density of 436.1 W kg-1). And its capacitance retention reaches 84.8% after 5000 cycles. With such an alluring result, our work presents a novel lithium-ion capacitor system with practical application prospects.

This paper deals with the robust stability analysis of dynamic systems with interval time- varying delay and uncertainties. The innovation of the method includes employment of a tighter integral inequality and construction of an appropriate type of Lyapunov functional. The stability criteria derived from this method have less conservatism than some existing ones. Numerical examples are given to illustrate the effectiveness of the orooosed method.

Laser shock forming (ISF) was a new technique realized by applying an impulsive pressure generated by laser-induced shock wave on the surface of metal sheet. LSF of metal sheet was investigated with experiments and numerical simulation. The basic theories were introduced; the surface quality and deformation of the processed titanium sample (TA2) were examined; ABAQUS was used to simulate ISF and the central displacement of the shocked region was measured and compared with the simulation. Overlapped ISF treatment was experimentally carried out to produce groove and simulation. The results showed that the surface quality and the microstructure with single laser pulse had no remarkable change, and ablation was observed on the surface of the sample with overlapped pulses. The deformation observed in the numerical simulation agreeed with that observed in the experimental measurement quite well.
