In order to address the potential deviation in rank function approximation caused by the kernel function used in the latent low-rank representation(LatLRR) method, an approach based on Schatten-p norm and latent low-rank decomposition was proposed. Theoretical analysis and experimental validation were conducted using this method. The images were first denoised using a median filtering method. The images were decomposed into low-rank and salient parts using the Schatten-p norm-based latent low-rank decomposition method combined with LatLRR. Then, an arithmetic mean strategy was employed to fuse the low-rank parts of the infrared and visible light images, while a summation strategy was used to fuse their salient parts. Finally, a summation strategy was applied to fuse the already merged low-rank and salient parts, resulting in fused infrared and visible light images with clear texture information and prominent thermal fault information. Through qualitative and quantitative experimental analysis, a p-value of 0.6 was determined to achieve the optimal fusion effect, and the proposed method outperformed seven other algorithms in fusion performance comparison. Through this approach, rich structural information at both global and local levels in infrared and visible light source images of power systems can be effectively captured.

In order to realize the integral forming of tungsten carbide WC-12Co metal powder products, the selective laser melting (SLM) technology was used for the theoretical analysis and experimental verification of the single-pass melting pool forming of WC-12Co alloy powder. The results show that: Different combinations of laser scanning rate and power affect the continuity and morphology of the single pass molten pool. When the laser power is 340 W, the scanning rate is 600 mm/s, the scanning interval is 60 m/pass, and the powder thickness is 40 m/layer, the single pass molten pool morphology reaches the best state, presenting a stable and continuous “fishscale” morphology. The single layer cracks of the forming object are the least.

In order to investigate the processing quality of carbon fiber reinforced plastic(CFRP) using a CO2 pulse laser, a single-factor experimental method was employed for theoretical analysis and experimental verification. The influence of scanning speed and laser power on processing quality was determined, and circular pattern carving experiments were conducted on CFRP. The results show that the material undergoes penetration at a laser power of 50 W and a scanning speed of 60 mm/s, and as the scanning speed decreases, the material absorbs more energy, resulting in complete pattern penetration. When the scanning speed is set to 100 mm/s and the power varies within the range of 10 W~5 W, white stripes gradually appear on the surface of the material. The surface roughness of the carved material was measured using both horizontal and vertical methods. Both methods indicated that the roughness values showed a pattern of first decreasing and then increasing. When the laser power was 7 W, the roughness reached its minimum value of about 7.030 m; After ultrasonic cleaning, when the laser power is 9 W and the scanning speed is 20 mm/s, the roughness of the carved material reaches its maximum value and there is less surface residue. At this time, the carving effect is better. This research result can provide certain guidance for the process of pulse laser processing of carbon fiber composite materials.
To ensure the safe takeoff and landing of aircraft and accurately monitor the visibility distribution of airports on a large scale, the error analysis methodwas adopted, the light detection and ranging(LiDAR) observation data was compared with the manual prevailing visibility data and the weighted visibility data calculated by the self-viewing system of Shenzhen Baoan International Airport from 2022-01 to 2023-06. The accuracy and reliability of prevailing visibility measured by visibility LiDAR were preliminarily verified. The results show that the average relative deviations between LiDAR data and manual data and self-viewing system observation data are -5.30% and -5.45%, respectively. LiDAR is more sensitive to early changes in visibility over a wide range. When rainfall and the prevailing visibility is less than 1500 m, the error of the observation results of LiDAR is large, and manual observation is required. When the prevailing visibility is greater than 1500 m, LiDAR can replace the manual output of the prevailing visibility data. This study provides a basis and reference for airport business operation based on the prevailing visibility measurement of visibility LiDAR.
