The process of direct quenching after hot rolling which replaced the steps of coiling and cold rolling was termed as compact process. As the temperature before direct quenching falls within the non-recrystallization range, the deformed austenite grains exhibit flattened morphology along the hot rolling direction, and the high-density dislocations and significant strain energy in deformed austenite are inherited by directly quenched martensite. Moreover, due to promotion of austenite nucleation and subsequent recrystallization during the reverse transformation process in hot forming, both reversed austenite grains and martensite laths are significantly refined. Compared to the conventional process with an initial microstructure consisting of fully recrystallized ferrite and cementite, the compact process reduces average prior austenite grain sizes from 12.5 to 5.5 μm and martensite lath widths from 202 to 123 nm. Additionally, the compact process results in a higher density of dislocations in test steel, leading to maximum yield strength (1294 MPa) and ultimate tensile strength (2266 MPa). Compared to conventional process, this compact process significantly improves the mechanical properties of the hot formed steels while simplifying the production.展开更多

文摘Cascading thermal runaway(TR)propagation poses a critical safety concern for large-format sodium-ion battery(SIB)systems because of the heightened risks of fires or explosions.However,effectively suppressing TR propagation without introducing unintended side effects remains a significant challenge.Herein,we demonstrate a localized energy release method to mitigate TR,by reducing the state of charge(SOC)of cells adjacent to the thermally runaway unit.We discover that as the SOCs decreased from 100%to 25%,the TR trigger temperature decreased significantly,and the maximum temperature decrease from 367 to 229℃.Meanwhile,the volume of gas decreased to one-third of its original value,while the range of explosion limits significantly narrowed.The analysis of the morphology of the debris further confirms that the structural damage is greater at higher SOC levels.Moreover,an Entropy Weight and Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to an Ideal Solution(EW-TOPSIS)method has been established to assess the safety status of SIBs,showing that the TR possibility is nearly linear with the SOCs,and the TR hazard is exponentially related to the SOCs.Finally,when the SOC of cells adjacent to the TR cell is reduced to 25%,TR can be directly blocked without the need for additional cooling or thermal insulation methods.This study not only advances the understanding of TR behavior in SIBs but also offers a straightforward approach to mitigating the TR risk in SIB systems.
文摘The landscape of hepatobiliary surgical education has undergone a significanttransformation with the integration of advanced technologies such as threedimensionalmodeling,virtual reality,augmented reality,and artificial intelligence.This review synthesizes recent advancements in surgical education,examiningthe role of these technologies in improving anatomical understanding,surgicalskill acquisition,and overall trainee engagement.Evidence from randomizedcontrolled trials,systematic reviews,and cohort studies shows that immersivetraining tools,including virtual reality,augmented reality,and haptic feedback,outperform traditional apprenticeship methods in fostering cognitive and psychomotorskills.Artificial intelligence applications provide real-time feedback,furtherenhancing learning efficiency.However,these technologies should complement,rather than replace,traditional hands-on training.Some challenges remain to beaddressed,such as high costs,infrastructure requirements,and limited long-termvalidation of these technologies.The review concludes that while these innovationsoffer promising educational benefits,further research is needed to standardizetheir application and evaluate their long-term impact on surgical outcomes.

文摘Membrane-initiated estrogen receptorα(mERα)signaling has been shown to affect bone mass in murine models.However,it remains unknown which cell types mediate the mERα-dependent effects on bone.In this study,we generated a novel mouse model with a conditional C451A mutation in Esr1,which enables selective knockout of the palmitoylation site essential for the membrane localization of ERα(C451A^(f/f)).First,we used Runx2-Cre mice to generate Runx2-C451A^(f/f)mice with conditional inactivation of mERαsignaling in Runx2-expressing osteoblast lineage cells.No significant changes were observed in body weight,weights of estrogen-responsive organs,or serum concentrations of estradiol between female Runx2-C451A^(f/f)and homozygous C451A^(f/f)littermate controls.High-resolution microcomputed tomography analysis showed a consistent decrease in cortical bone mass in the tibia,femur,and vertebra L5 of Runx2-C451A^(f/f)mice and three-point bending analysis of humerus revealed an impaired mechanical bone strength in Runx2-C451A^(f/f)female mice compared to controls.Additionally,primary osteoblast cultures from mice lacking mERαsignaling showed impaired differentiation compared to controls.

文摘The crosstalk between megakaryocytic lineage cells and the skeletal system has just begun to be explored but remains largely elusive.Using conditional gene knockout mouse models,we demonstrated that loss of Beclin 1(Becn1),a major regulator of mammalian autophagy,exclusively in the megakaryocytic lineage disrupted autophagy in platelets but did not compromise megakaryopoiesis or the formation and function of platelets.Unexpectedly,conditional Becn1 deletion in male mice led to a remarkable increase in bone mass with improved bone quality,in association with a decrease in sex hormone binding globulin(SHBG)and an increase in free testosterone(FT).In vivo Becn1 overexpression in megakaryocytic lineage-specific cells reduced bone mass and quality,along with an increase in SHBG and a decrease in FT.Transplantation of wild-type bone marrow cells into megakaryocytic lineage Becn1-deficient male mice restored bone mass and normalized SHBG and FT.Furthermore,bilateral orchiectomy of Becn1^(f/f);Pf4-iCre mice,which are crippled with the production of testosterone,resulted in a reduction in bone mass and quality,whereas in vivo overexpression of SHBG,specifically in the liver of Becn1^(f/f);Pf4-iCre mice,decreased FT and reduced bone mass and quality.In addition,metformin treatment,which induces SHBG expression,reduced FT and normalized bone mass in Becn1^(f/f);Pf4-iCre mice.We thus concluded that Becn1 of the megakaryocytic lineage is dispensable locally for platelet hemostasis but limits bone mass by increasing SHBG,which in turn reduces the FT of male mice.Our findings highlight a mechanism by which Becn1 from megakaryocytic lineage cells distally balances bone growth.

文摘Ce-β-Bi_(2)O_(3)/AgI was prepared using solvothermal calcination and in-situ deposition methods.The introduction of Ce can inhibit the conversion of Bi_(2)O_(3)fromβtoαphase at high temperatures,promoting the formation of oxygen vacancies(OVs)in the photocatalyst.OVs can adsorb more dissolved oxygen to promote the formation rate of·O^(-)_(2).Moreover,the interaction between Ce-Bi_(2)O_(3)and AgI results in the formation of Z-scheme heterojunctions,which can broaden the light absorption region,facilitate photogenerated carrier separation and transfer and enhance the ability to produce more active oxygen species(ROS).The morphology,crystal,element distribution and photo-electric chemical properties of the Ce-Bi_(2)O_(3)/AgI were analyzed,and the result shows that the optimal ratio of Ce-Bi_(2)O_(3)/AgI photocatalyst achieves a removal rate of 88.63%(180 min)of tetracycline(TC)(20 mg/L)and 100%(120 min)of methyl orange(MO)(20 mg/L).This work clarified the photocatalytic degradation mechanism,providing a promising avenue for developing photocatalytic composites by rare earth metal doping in environme ntal remediation applications.

文摘Non-destructive time-series assessment of chlorophyll content in flag-leaf(FLC)accurately mimics the senescence rate and the identification of genetic loci associated with senescence provides valuable knowledge to improve yield stability under stressed environments.In this study,we employed both unmanned aerial vehicles(UAVs)equipped with red–green–blue(RGB)camera and ground-based SPAD-502 instrument to conduct temporal phenotyping of senescence.A total of 262 recombinant inbred lines derived from the cross of Zhongmai 578/Jimai 22 were evaluated for senescence-related traits across three environments,spanning from heading to 35 d post-anthesis.The manual senescence rate(MSR)was quantified using the FLC and the active accumulated temperature,and UAV derived vegetation index were utilized to assess the stay-green rate(USG)facilitating the identification of senescent and stay-green lines.Results indicated that higher senescence rates significantly impacted grain yield,primarily by influencing thousand-kernel weight,and plant height.Quantitative trait loci(QTL)mapping for FLC,USG,and MSR using the 50K SNP array identified 38 stable loci associated with RGB-based vegetation indices and senescence-related traits:among which 19 loci related to senescence traits from UAV and FLC were consistently detected across at least two growth stages,with nine loci likely representing novel QTL.This study highlights the potential of UAV-based high-throughput phenotyping and phenology in identifying critical loci associated with senescence rates in wheat,validating the relationship between senescence rates and yield-related traits in wheat,offering valuable opportunities for gene discovery and significant applications in breeding programs.

文摘The development of high-performance transition metal sulfide(TMS)/carbon composites to replace conventional graphite anode remains a critical challenge for advancing lithium-ion batteries(LIBs).In this study,a facile self-sacrifice template method is developed to prepare FeS encapsulated into N,S co-doped carbon(FeS/NSC)composite using melamine-cyanuric acid(MCA)supermolecule as a multifunctional template precursor.The function of MCA supermolecule for material synthesis is explored,revealing its special function as a dispersant,dopant and pore-forming agent.Furthermore,the effect of Fe source dosage on the morphology,structure and composition of the final products is explored.The resultant FeS/NSC-0.1(where 0.1 represents the mass of added Fe source)exhibits the most optimal proportion,characterized by a good dispersion status of FeS within the NSC matrix,effective N,S co-doping and ample porosity.Benefiting from these merits,the FeS/NSC-0.1 anode demonstrates significantly improved cycling stability and rate capability when compared to the counterparts.Undoubtedly,this work offers a universal method to produce advanced transition metal sulfide/carbon composite electrodes for energy storage and conversion systems.

文摘Prostate cancer(PCa)is characterized by high incidence and propensity for easy metastasis,presenting significant challenges in clinical diagnosis and treatment.Tumor microenvironment(TME)-responsive nanomaterials provide a promising prospect for imaging-guided precision therapy.Considering that tumor-derived alkaline phosphatase(ALP)is over-expressed in metastatic PCa,it makes a great chance to develop a theranostics system with ALP responsive in the TME.Herein,an ALP-responsive aggregationinduced emission luminogens(AIEgens)nanoprobe AMNF self-assembly was designed for enhancing the diagnosis and treatment of metastatic PCa.The nanoprobe exhibited self-aggregation in the presence of ALP resulted in aggregation-induced fluorescence,and enhanced accumulation and prolonged retention period at the tumor site.In terms of detection,the fluorescence(FL)/computed tomography(CT)/magnetic resonance(MR)multi-mode imaging effect of nanoprobe was significantly improved post-aggregation,enabling precise diagnosis through the amalgamation of multiple imaging modes.Enhanced CT/MR imaging can achieve assist preoperative tumor diagnosis,and enhanced FL imaging technology can achieve“intraoperative visual navigation”,showing its potential application value in clinical tumor detection and surgical guidance.In terms of treatment,AMNF showed strong absorption in the near infrared region after aggregation,which improved the photothermal treatment effect.Overall,our work developed an effective aggregation-enhanced theranostic strategy for ALP-related cancers.
文摘The urgent demand for clean energy solutions has intensified the search for advanced storage materials,with rechargeable alkali-ion batteries(AIBs)playing a pivotal role in electrochemical energy storage.Enhancing electrode performance is critical to addressing the increasing need for high-energy and high-power AIBs.Next-generation anode materials face significant challenges,including limited energy storage capacities and complex reaction mechanisms that complicate structural modeling.Sn-based materials have emerged as promising candidates for AIBs due to their inherent advantages.Recent research has increasingly focused on the development of heterojunctions as a strategy to enhance the performance of Sn-based anode materials.Despite significant advances in this field,comprehensive reviews summarizing the latest developments are still sparse.This review provides a detailed overview of recent progress in Sn-based heterojunction-type anode materials.It begins with an explanation of the concept of heterojunctions,including their fabrication,characterization,and classification.Cutting-edge research on Sn-based heterojunction-type anodes for AIBs is highlighted.Finally,the review summarizes the latest advancements in heterojunction technology and discusses future directions for research and development in this area.
文摘The study on sand body connectivity and distribution patterns is of great significance for well emplacement and injection-production pattern analysis in the A oilfield of the Weixi?nan Sag currently at a pre-development stage.Based on the current drilling data,seismic data,and fault development characteristics,this study investigates the connectivity,geometric morphology,planar distribution,and vertical evolution of composite sand bodies(multi-stage superimposed channel sand bodies)within the fault block using seismic forward and inversion modeling.The El3I oil layer group in the third member of the Liushagang Formation is developed in the fan delta-front sub-facies,which mainly consists of subaqueous distributary channels.The thickness of single-stage subaqueous distributary channel sand bodies ranges from 2 to 6 m,and the width of composite channel sand bodies varies from 50 to 100 m.Under the long-term transgression background,the subaqueous distributary channels in the El3I oil layer group are relatively narrow,forming superimposed and continuous composite channel sand bodies through lateral migration and vertical stacking.The long-term base-level cycles control the width of subaqueous distributary channels,while the mid-term base-level cycles control the thickness of these channels.The subaqueous distributary channels developed during the late stage of mid-term base-level fall are thicker than those formed during the early stage.Accordingly,quantitative relationships between channel thickness and width are established for the early and late stages of mid-term base-level fall,to finely depict the evolution patterns of channel sand body geometry and stacking styles across different stages.These findings provide important guidance for accurately predicting the planar distribution and channel width of composite subaqueous distributary channels at different stages of the mid-term baselevel cycles.

文摘Longitudinal magnetic field annealing is utilized for modifying the magnetic anisotropy and enhancing the magnetic softness of Fe_(75)Co_(8)(B_(10)Si_(3)C_(3)P_(1))_(1-x)/_(17)Cux(x=0.5,0.75,1,1.25)nanocrystalline alloys.All of the magnetic field-annealed nanocrystalline alloys with Cu content more than 0.5 at.%exhibit significantly improved soft-magnetic properties,including high saturation magnetic flux density up to 1.87 T,effective permeability of 13,000-16,000 under the condition of 1 A/m and 1 kHz,coercivity as low as 1.6 A/m,and core loss of 0.11-0.45 W/kg under the condition of 1.0 T and 50 Hz.The application of a magnetic field promotes the nucleation and inhibits the growth of grains,leading to an increase in the number density of nanocrystals and the crystalline volume fraction,and a reduction in the grain size.The magnetic field annealing reduces the effective magneto-crystalline anisotropy energy to 2-4 J/m^(3),and induces longitudinal magnetic anisotropy with anisotropy energy density of 400-900 J/m^(3)which shows dependence on the crystalline volume fraction.The field-induced magnetic anisotropy dominates over the random local magnetic anisotropies,and results in the formation of regular magnetic domains aligned longitudinally,pinning-free domain wall displacement,and thus enhanced soft-magnetic properties.

文摘Injection-production coupling(IPC) technology holds substantial potential for boosting oil recovery and enhancing economic efficiency.Despite this potential,discussion on gas injection coupling,especially in relation to microscopic mechanisms,remains relatively sparse.This study utilizes microscopic visualization experiments to investigate the mechanisms of residual oil mobilization under various IPC scenarios,complemented by mechanical analysis at different stages.The research quantitatively assesses the degree of microscopic oil recovery and the distribution of residual oil across different injection-production methods.Findings reveal that during the initial phase of continuous gas injection(CGI),the process closely mimics miscible displacement,gradually transitioning to immiscible displacement as CO_(2)extraction progresses.Compared to CGI,the asynchronous injection-production(AIP) method improved the microscopic oil recovery rate by 6.58%.This enhancement is mainly attributed to significant variations in the pressure field in the AIP method,which facilitate the mobilization of columnar and porous re sidual oil.Furthermo re,the synchronous cycle injection(SCI) method increased microscopic oil recovery by 13.77% and 7.19% compared to CGI and AIP,respectively.In the SCI method,membrane oil displays filame ntary and Karman vo rtex street flow patterns.The dissolved and expanded crude oil te nds to accumulate and grow at the oil-solid interface due to adhesive forces,thereby reducing migration resistance.The study findings provide a theoretical foundation for improving oil recovery in lowpermeability reservoirs.

文摘A martensitic initial microstructure before hot forming was prepared by direct quenching after hot rolling of the hot formed steel and the effect of such initial microstructure on mechanical properties of steel was analyzed. The process of direct quenching after hot rolling which replaced the steps of coiling and cold rolling was termed as compact process. As the temperature before direct quenching falls within the non-recrystallization range, the deformed austenite grains exhibit flattened morphology along the hot rolling direction, and the high-density dislocations and significant strain energy in deformed austenite are inherited by directly quenched martensite. Moreover, due to promotion of austenite nucleation and subsequent recrystallization during the reverse transformation process in hot forming, both reversed austenite grains and martensite laths are significantly refined. Compared to the conventional process with an initial microstructure consisting of fully recrystallized ferrite and cementite, the compact process reduces average prior austenite grain sizes from 12.5 to 5.5 μm and martensite lath widths from 202 to 123 nm. Additionally, the compact process results in a higher density of dislocations in test steel, leading to maximum yield strength (1294 MPa) and ultimate tensile strength (2266 MPa). Compared to conventional process, this compact process significantly improves the mechanical properties of the hot formed steels while simplifying the production.
