To improve the independent engine fault detection ability, Aircraft Communications Addressing and Reporting System(ACARS) data can be used. However, owing to the characteristics of high dimension, complex correlations between parameters, and large noise content, it is difficult for existing methods to detect faults effectively by using ACARS data. To solve this problem, a novel engine fault detection method based on original ACARS data is proposed. First, inspired by computer vision methods, all variables were divided into separated groups according to their correlations. Then, an improved convolutional denoising autoencoder was used to extract the features of each group. Finally, all of the extracted features were fused to form feature vectors. Thereby, fault samples could be identified based on these feature vectors. Experiments were conducted to validate the effectiveness and efficiency of our method and other competing methods by considering real ACARS data as the data source. The results reveal the good performance of our method with regard to comprehensive fault detection and robustness. Additionally, the computational and time costs of our method are shown to be relatively low.展开更多

RevMan 5.2 software was used to analyze the data with relative risk or mean difference, expressed with 95% of confidence interval. The quality of trials was assessed and gradedthe quality of evidence with GRADE profiler software.RESULTS: Twenty one studies were included. CHM was superior to Western Medicine(include prednisone and NSAIDs) in abating fever, relieving thyroid pain, recovering blood sedimentation, improving thyroid function, and preventing hypothyroidism(P<0.05), while no statistical differences were found in eliminating goiter and reducing relapse rate.CHM plusWestern Medicine were superior toWestern Medicine in abating fever, relieving thyroid pain, eliminating goiter, and reducing relapse rate,while no statistical differences(P>0.05) were found in recovering blood sedimentation and improving thyroid function. The incidence of adverse reactions in treatment group was lower than that in control group(relative risk was 0.12 and 95% confidence interval was 0.03-0.51). The methodological quality of trials is generally poor with a high risk of bias.CONCLUSION: CHM(particularly CHM combined withWestern Medicine) used to treat subacute thyroiditis may improve clinical symptoms and signs,reduce relapse rate, and alleviate the side effects of hormones. Due to poor methodological quality of included trials, further more high-quality studies are warranted to confirm the effectiveness and safety of CHM.展开更多

Here, a graphene-oxide(GO)-modified PEDOT:PSS hole transport layer was fabricated by spin-coating a GO solution onto the PEDOT:PSS surface. PSCs fabricated on a GO-modified PEDOT:PSS layer exhibited a power conversion efficiency(PCE) of 15.34%, which is higher than 11.90% of PSCs with the PEDOT:PSS layer.Furthermore, the stability of the PSCs was significantly improved, with the PCE remaining at 83.5% of the initial PCE values after aging for 39 days in air. The hygroscopic PSS material at the PEDOT:PSS surface was partlyremoved during spin-coating with the GO solution, which improves the moisture resistance and decreases the contact barrier between the hole transport layer and perovskite layer. The scattered distribution of the GO at the PEDOT:PSS surface exhibits superior wettability, which helps to form a high-quality perovskite layer with better crystallinity and fewer pin holes. Furthermore, the hole extraction selectivity of the GO further inhibits the carrier recombination at the interface between the perovskite and PEDOT:PSS layers. Therefore, the cooperative interactions of these factors greatly improve the light absorption of the perovskite layer, the carrier transport and collection abilities of the PSCs, and especially the stability of the cells.展开更多

The catalysts were characterized by nitrogen physisorption, transmission electron microscopy(TEM),CO/CHisothermal oxidations, NHtemperature-programmed desorption(NH–TPD) and infrared(IR) spectroscopy of adsorbed probe molecules(CO, CHand CH+ O). Compared with Pt/AlO, Pt USY catalyst shows obviously higher activity for the combustion of propane. After estimating the size effect of Pt particles and propane adsorption capacity of USY, the excellent activity of Pt USY is also attributed to the strong interactions between the precious metal and the acidic zeolite. It inhibits the oxidation of Pt in an oxygen-rich atmosphere at high temperatures, which facilitate the initial oxidation step involving the C–H bond activation on metallic Pt as reflected by in situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fouriertransformed(DRIFT) spectra.展开更多

During the redox reaction, GO was reduced to rGO while Sn2+ was oxidized to Sn02, uniformly depositing on the surface of rGO sheets. The composites were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), infrared spectra analysis (IR) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM), respectively, and their gas sensing properties were further investigated.

文摘As a hydrogen storage material,both AlH_(3)and LiNH_(2)possess a high hydrogen capacity.However,the dehydrogenated AlH_(3)can hardly absorb hydrogen under normal conditions,while LiNH_(2)will generate NH_(3)rather than H_(2)upon decomposition.In this work,we report thatthe combination of AlH_(3)and LiNH_(2)through simple ball milling leads to partial reversibility of the AlH_(3)-LiNH_(2)system and the suppression of NH_(3)liberation.The negatively charged H^(δ-)in AlH_(3)will react with the positively charged H^(δ+)in LiNH_(2)through a redox reaction to form Li_(2)NH,AlN,and H_(2)at 120-170℃.After dehydrogenation at above 270℃,Li_(3)AlN_(2)is generated,which is crucial for the reversibility of this system.The more the Li3AlN2generated,the better the reversibility of this system.The dehydrogenation capacity of AlH_(3)+2LiNH_(2)at the third cycle(3.0 wt%)is higher than that of AlH_(3)+LiNH_(2)(1.2 wt%)due to the generation of more Li3AlN2.The role of AIH_(3)/Al in the AlH_(3)-LiNH_(2)system is to fix the nitrogen into the form of AIN and Li_(3)AlN_(2)and thus suppress the liberation of NH_(3).Therefore,the synergy of AlH_(3)and LiNH_(2)leads to the reversibility of the Li-Al-NH system and the suppression of NH_(3).

文摘Rail surface damage is a critical component of high-speed railway infrastructure,directly affecting train operational stability and safety.Existing methods face limitations in accuracy and speed for small-sample,multi-category,and multi-scale target segmentation tasks.To address these challenges,this paper proposes Pyramid-MixNet,an intelligent segmentation model for high-speed rail surface damage,leveraging dataset construction and expansion alongside a feature pyramid-based encoder-decoder network with multi-attention mechanisms.The encoding net-work integrates Spatial Reduction Masked Multi-Head Attention(SRMMHA)to enhance global feature extraction while reducing trainable parameters.The decoding network incorporates Mix-Attention(MA),enabling multi-scale structural understanding and cross-scale token group correlation learning.Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method achieves 62.17%average segmentation accuracy,80.28%Damage Dice Coefficient,and 56.83 FPS,meeting real-time detection requirements.The model’s high accuracy and scene adaptability significantly improve the detection of small-scale and complex multi-scale rail damage,offering practical value for real-time monitoring in high-speed railway maintenance systems.

文摘The Māori people are indigenous to Aotearoa New Zealand,and their language and culture are considered vital components of the nation’s cultural heritage.However,Te Reo Māori is regarded as a lowresource language outside of New Zealand,and its literary works usually rely on English as a pivot language for translation and communication.Therefore,in the process of promoting Māori literature as part of world literature by translating it into non-English languages,the accurate translation of cultural keywords is crucial to prevent dilemmas such as information loss and cultural misappropriation.In this article,we aim to explore effective translation strategies to enhance the international visibility and readership of Māori literature by analysing the rendition of Māori cultural keywords in the Chinese translation of“The Whale Rider”.

文摘Many existing aircraft engine fault detection methods are highly dependent on performance deviation data that are provided by the original equipment manufacturer. To improve the independent engine fault detection ability, Aircraft Communications Addressing and Reporting System(ACARS) data can be used. However, owing to the characteristics of high dimension, complex correlations between parameters, and large noise content, it is difficult for existing methods to detect faults effectively by using ACARS data. To solve this problem, a novel engine fault detection method based on original ACARS data is proposed. First, inspired by computer vision methods, all variables were divided into separated groups according to their correlations. Then, an improved convolutional denoising autoencoder was used to extract the features of each group. Finally, all of the extracted features were fused to form feature vectors. Thereby, fault samples could be identified based on these feature vectors. Experiments were conducted to validate the effectiveness and efficiency of our method and other competing methods by considering real ACARS data as the data source. The results reveal the good performance of our method with regard to comprehensive fault detection and robustness. Additionally, the computational and time costs of our method are shown to be relatively low.

文摘OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of Chinese herbal medicine(CHM) in the treatmentofsubacutethyroiditis.METHODS: Randomized controlled trials found in PubMed, Cochrane Library, and three Chinese databases were selected. RevMan 5.2 software was used to analyze the data with relative risk or mean difference, expressed with 95% of confidence interval. The quality of trials was assessed and gradedthe quality of evidence with GRADE profiler software.RESULTS: Twenty one studies were included. CHM was superior to Western Medicine(include prednisone and NSAIDs) in abating fever, relieving thyroid pain, recovering blood sedimentation, improving thyroid function, and preventing hypothyroidism(P<0.05), while no statistical differences were found in eliminating goiter and reducing relapse rate.CHM plusWestern Medicine were superior toWestern Medicine in abating fever, relieving thyroid pain, eliminating goiter, and reducing relapse rate,while no statistical differences(P>0.05) were found in recovering blood sedimentation and improving thyroid function. The incidence of adverse reactions in treatment group was lower than that in control group(relative risk was 0.12 and 95% confidence interval was 0.03-0.51). The methodological quality of trials is generally poor with a high risk of bias.CONCLUSION: CHM(particularly CHM combined withWestern Medicine) used to treat subacute thyroiditis may improve clinical symptoms and signs,reduce relapse rate, and alleviate the side effects of hormones. Due to poor methodological quality of included trials, further more high-quality studies are warranted to confirm the effectiveness and safety of CHM.

文摘Magnesium hydride(MgH_(2))is a potential material for solid-state hydrogen storage.However,the thermodynamic and kinetic properties are far from practical application in the current stage.In this work,two-dimensional vanadium carbide(V_(2)C)MXene with layer thickness of 50−100 nm was fist synthesized by selectively HF-etching the Al layers from V_(2)AlC MAX phase and then introduced into MgH_(2) to improve the hydrogen sorption performances of MgH_(2).The onset hydrogen desorption temperature of MgH_(2) with V_(2)C addition is significantly reduced from 318℃ for pure MgH_(2) to 190℃,with a 128℃ reduction of the onset temperature.The MgH_(2)+10 wt%V_(2)C composite can release 6.4 wt%of H_(2) within 10 min at 300℃ and does not loss any capacity for up to 10 cycles.The activation energy for the hydrogen desorption reaction of MgH_(2) with V_(2)C addition was calculated to be 112 kJ mol^(−1) H_(2) by Arrhenius’s equation and 87.6 kJ mol^(−1) H_(2) by Kissinger’s equation.The hydrogen desorption reaction enthalpy of MgH_(2)+10 wt%V_(2)C was estimated by van’t Hoff equation to be 73.6 kJ mol^(−1) H_(2),which is slightly lower than that of the pure MgH_(2)(77.9 kJ mol^(−1) H_(2)).Microstructure studies by XPS,TEM,and SEM showed that V_(2)C acts as an efficient catalyst for the hydrogen desorption reaction of MgH_(2).The first-principles density functional theory(DFT)calculations demonstrated that the bond length of Mg−H can be reduced from 1.71A for pure MgH_(2) to 2.14A for MgH_(2) with V_(2)C addition,which contributes to the destabilization of MgH_(2).This work provides a method to significantly and simultaneously tailor the hydrogen sorption thermodynamics and kinetics of MgH_(2) by two-dimensional MXene materials.

文摘Many MXenes are efficient catalysts for MgH_(2)hydrogen storage material.Nevertheless,the synthesis of MXenes should consume a large amount of corrosive HF to etch out the Al layers from the transition metal aluminum carbides or nitrides(MAX) phases,which is environmentally unfriendly.In this work,Ti_(3)AlCN MAX without HFetching was employed directly to observably enhance the kinetics and the cycling stability of MgH_(2).With addition of10 wt% Ti_(3)AlCN,the onset dehydrogenation temperature of MgH2 was dropped from 320 to 205℃,and the rehydrogenation of MgH2 under 6 MPa H2 began at as low as50℃.Furthermore,at 300℃,it could provide 6.2 wt% of hydrogen in 10 min.Upon cycling,the composite underwent an activation process during the initial 40 cycles,with the reversible capacity increased from 4.7 wt% to 6.5 wt%.After that,the capacity showed almost no attenuation for up to 100 cycles.The enhancing effect of Ti_(3)AICN on MgH_(2) was comparable to many MXenes.It was demonstrated that Ti_(3)AICN did not destabilize MgH_(2) but acted as an efficient catalyst for MgH_(2).Ti_(3)AICN was observed to be the active sites for the nucleation and growth of MgH_(2)and might also help in dissociation and recombination of hydrogen molecules.Such two factors are believed to contribute to the improvement of MgH_(2).This study not only provides a promising strategy for improving the hydrogen storage performances of MgH_(2) by using noncorrosive MAX materials,but also adds evidence of nucleation and growth of MgH_(2) on a catalyst.

文摘As a hole transport layer, PEDOT:PSS usually limits the stability and efficiency of perovskite solar cells(PSCs) due to its hygroscopic nature and inability to block electrons. Here, a graphene-oxide(GO)-modified PEDOT:PSS hole transport layer was fabricated by spin-coating a GO solution onto the PEDOT:PSS surface. PSCs fabricated on a GO-modified PEDOT:PSS layer exhibited a power conversion efficiency(PCE) of 15.34%, which is higher than 11.90% of PSCs with the PEDOT:PSS layer.Furthermore, the stability of the PSCs was significantly improved, with the PCE remaining at 83.5% of the initial PCE values after aging for 39 days in air. The hygroscopic PSS material at the PEDOT:PSS surface was partlyremoved during spin-coating with the GO solution, which improves the moisture resistance and decreases the contact barrier between the hole transport layer and perovskite layer. The scattered distribution of the GO at the PEDOT:PSS surface exhibits superior wettability, which helps to form a high-quality perovskite layer with better crystallinity and fewer pin holes. Furthermore, the hole extraction selectivity of the GO further inhibits the carrier recombination at the interface between the perovskite and PEDOT:PSS layers. Therefore, the cooperative interactions of these factors greatly improve the light absorption of the perovskite layer, the carrier transport and collection abilities of the PSCs, and especially the stability of the cells.

文摘Platinum was supported on c-AlOand ultrastable Y zeolite(USY) by an incipient wetness impregnation method. The catalysts were characterized by nitrogen physisorption, transmission electron microscopy(TEM),CO/CHisothermal oxidations, NHtemperature-programmed desorption(NH–TPD) and infrared(IR) spectroscopy of adsorbed probe molecules(CO, CHand CH+ O). Compared with Pt/AlO, Pt USY catalyst shows obviously higher activity for the combustion of propane. After estimating the size effect of Pt particles and propane adsorption capacity of USY, the excellent activity of Pt USY is also attributed to the strong interactions between the precious metal and the acidic zeolite. It inhibits the oxidation of Pt in an oxygen-rich atmosphere at high temperatures, which facilitate the initial oxidation step involving the C–H bond activation on metallic Pt as reflected by in situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fouriertransformed(DRIFT) spectra.

文摘SnO2-reduced graphene oxide (SnO2-rGO) composites were prepared via a hydro-thermal reaction of graphene oxide (GO) and SnCI2·2H2O in the mixed solvent of ethylene glycol and water. During the redox reaction, GO was reduced to rGO while Sn2+ was oxidized to Sn02, uniformly depositing on the surface of rGO sheets. The composites were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), infrared spectra analysis (IR) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM), respectively, and their gas sensing properties were further investigated. Compared with pure SnO2 nanoparticles, the as-prepared SnO2-rGO gas sensor and response-recovery time to ethanol and H2S at responding and low cost SnO2-rGO gas sensor could showed much better gas sensing behavior in sensitivity ow concentrations. Overall, the highly sensitive, quick- be potentially applied in environmental monitoring area.

文摘Hydrogen can serve as a carrier to store renewable energy in large scale.However,hydrogen storage still remains a challenge in the current stage.It is difficult to meet the technical requirements applying the conventional storage of compressed gaseous hydrogen in high-pressure tanks or the solid-state storage of hydrogen in suitable materials.In the present work,a gaseous and solid-state(G-S)hybrid hydrogen storage system with a low working pressure below 5 MPa for a 10 kW hydrogen energy storage experiment platform is developed and validated.A Ti-Mn type hydrogen storage alloy with an effective hydrogen capacity of 1.7 wt%was prepared for the G-S hybrid hydrogen storage system.The G-S hybrid hydrogen storage tank has a high volumetric hydrogen storage density of 40.07 kg H_(2)m^(-3) and stores hydrogen under pressure below5 MPa.It can readily release enough hydrogen at a temperature as low as-15C when the FC system is not fully activated and hot water is not available.The energy storage efficiency of this G-S hybrid hydrogen storage system is calculated to be 86.4%-95.9%when it is combined with an FC system.This work provides a method on how to design a G-S hydrogen storage system based on practical demands and demonstrates that the G-S hybrid hydrogen storage is a promising method for stationary hydrogen storage application.
