文摘Lithium-ion batteries(LIBs)face significant limitations in low-temperature environments,with the slow interfacial de-solvation process and the hindered Li+transport through the interphase layer emerging as key obstacles beyond the issue of ionic conductivity.This investigation unveils a novel formulation that constructs an anion-rich solvation sheath within strong solvents,effectively addressing all three of these challenges to bolster low-temperature performance.The developed electrolyte,characterized by an enhanced concentration of contact ion pairs(CIPs)and aggregates(AGGs),facilitates the formation of an inorganic-rich interphase layer on the anode and cathode particles.This promotes de-solvation at low temperatures and stabilizes the electrode-electrolyte interphase.Full cells composed of LiNi_(0.6)Co_(0.2)Mn_(0.2)O_(2)(NCM622)and graphite,when equipped with this electrolyte,showcase remarkable cycle stability and capacity retention,with 93.3% retention after 500 cycles at room temperature(RT)and 95.5%after 120 cycles at -20℃.This study validates the utility of the anion-rich solvation sheath in strong solvents as a strategy for the development of low-temperature electrolytes.

文摘The application of machine learning in alloy design is increasingly widespread,yet traditional models still face challenges when dealing with limited datasets and complex nonlinear relationships.This work proposes an interpretable machine learning method based on data augmentation and reconstruction,excavating high-performance low-alloyed magnesium(Mg)alloys.The data augmentation technique expands the original dataset through Gaussian noise.The data reconstruction method reorganizes and transforms the original data to extract more representative features,significantly improving the model's generalization ability and prediction accuracy,with a coefficient of determination(R^(2))of 95.9%for the ultimate tensile strength(UTS)model and a R^(2)of 95.3%for the elongation-to-failure(EL)model.The correlation coefficient assisted screening(CCAS)method is proposed to filter low-alloyed target alloys.A new Mg-2.2Mn-0.4Zn-0.2Al-0.2Ca(MZAX2000,wt%)alloy is designed and extruded into bar at given processing parameters,achieving room-temperature strength-ductility synergy showing an excellent UTS of 395 MPa and a high EL of 17.9%.This is closely related to its hetero-structured characteristic in the as-extruded MZAX2000 alloy consisting of coarse grains(16%),fine grains(75%),and fiber regions(9%).Therefore,this work offers new insights into optimizing alloy compositions and processing parameters for attaining new high strong and ductile low-alloyed Mg alloys.

文摘The Li-Mg-N-H(Mg(NH_(2))_(2)-2LiH)system,as a high-capacity Mg-based metal hydrogen storage material(5.6 wt%),has broad prospects for in vehicle hydrogen storage applications,but it still has high hydrogen ab/desorption barriers.To improve its hydrogen storage performance,a nanohydrogen storage alloy was innovatively combined with Mg(NH_(2))_(2)-2LiH,AB5 type nanohydrogen storage alloy LaNi_(5)was prepared by co-precipitation method.Nano LaNi_(5)and single-walled carbon nanotubes(SWCNTs)were co-doped into the Mg(NH_(2))_(2)-2LiH system at a ratio of 10 wt%and 2 wt%,significantly enhancing the hydrogen storage performance of Mg(NH_(2))_(2)-2LiH.The initial hydrogen ab/desorption temperatures of the co-doped system decreased from110/130℃to 45/85℃.The release of by-product ammonia is significantly inhibited.4.73 wt% H_(2)can be ab/desorption in 150 min at 180/170℃.Cycle tests show that the co-doped system can still maintain a hydrogen storage capacity of 4.75 wt% after ten hydrogen release cycles.Mechanism and density functional theory study have shown that during the hydrogen release process,partially hydrogenated LaNi_(5)weakens the chemical bonding in Mg(NH_(2))_(2),promoted the dissociation of hydrogen from the Mg(NH_(2))_(2)-2LiH system,while playing a dual role of"hydrogen overflow"and"hydrogen pump".SWCNTs act as auxiliary agents,helping to refine particle size and increase thermal conductivity.The synergistic effect of the two optimizes the comprehensive hydrogen storage performance of Mg(NH_(2))_(2)-2LiH.This study provides a new research method for improving the comprehensive hydrogen storage performance of Mg-based metal hydrogen storage materials using rare earth element catalysts.

文摘A solid solution 6063 aluminium alloy features an exceptional combination of strength and ductility at 77 K.Here,the deformation mechanisms responsible for superior strength-ductility synergy and excellent strain hardening capacity at a cryogenic temperature of the alloy were comparatively investigated by insitu electron backscatter diffraction(EBSD)observations coupled with transmission electron microscopy(TEM)characterization and fracture morphologies at both 298 and 77 K.It is found that kernel average misorientation(KAM)mappings and quantified KAM in degree suggest a higher proportion of geometrically necessary dislocations(GNDs)at 77 K.The existence of orientation scatter partitions at 77 K implies the activation of multiple slip systems,which is consistent with the results of potential slip systems calculated by Taylor axes.Furthermore,dislocation tangles characterized by brief and curved dislocation cells and abundant small dimples have been observed at 77 K.This temperature-mediated activation of dislocations facilitates the increased dislocations,thus enhancing the strain hardening capacity and ductility of the alloy.This research enriches cryogenic deformation theory and provides valuable insights into the design of high-performance aluminium alloys that are suitable for cryogenic applications.

文摘The main scientific payload of Macao Science Satellite-1B is a solar soft X-ray detection unit.To obtain an accurate solar X-ray spectrum,we have designed low-noise,high-throughput electronics.Solar radiation is detected using a low-leakage silicon drift detector(SDD),which is cooled to-30℃.The SDD output is processed using two parallel shaping amplifiers with peaking times of 315 ns and 65 ns.The amplifiers are designed using two-pole multiple-feedback active low-pass filters optimized to achieve a Bessel response.The differential output of the shaping amplifier generates a bipolar signal.The phase of the differential stage is tuned to ensure zero crossing corresponding to the peak of the shaping amplifier.A high-speed switch is inserted between the shaping amplifier and the peak-hold capacitor,and the peak value is maintained by turning off the switch.Fast and slow peak-hold circuits share a common ADC via time-division multiplexing.Both peak values are sampled for space-background rejection.Traditional pile-up detection methods cannot distinguish pulses that overlap in a fast channel.In this study,the differential of the“fast shaping”is selected,enabling the distinction of events separated by as little as 65ns,which is crucial for solar flare detection.The energy resolution is measured to be 138 eV at 5.90 keV.The centroid drift is less than 3.6 eV between-5℃ and 20℃.Compared with other solar X-ray instruments,this study demonstrates improved energy resolution with a lower peaking time,indicating a higher solar flare detection capability.

文摘This paper investigates a multiplayer Pareto game for affine nonlinear stochastic systems disturbed by both external and the internal multiplicative noises.The Pareto cooperative optimal strategies with the H_(∞) constraint are resolved by integrating H_(2)/H_(∞) theory with Pareto game theory.First,a nonlinear stochastic bounded real lemma(SBRL)is derived,explicitly accounting for non-zero initial conditions.Through the analysis of four cross-coupled Hamilton-Jacobi equations(HJEs),we establish necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of Pareto optimal strategies with the H_(∞) constraint.Secondly,to address the complexity of solving these nonlinear partial differential HJEs,we propose a neural network(NN)framework with synchronous tuning rules for the actor,critic,and disturbance components,based on a reinforcement learning(RL)approach.The designed tuning rules ensure convergence of the actor-critic-disturbance components to the desired values,enabling the realization of robust Pareto control strategies.The convergence of the proposed algorithm is rigorously analyzed using a constructed Lyapunov function for the NN weight errors.Finally,a numerical simulation example is provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed methods and main results.

文摘In drilling ultra-deep wells,the drilling fluid circulation usually causes erosion damage to downhole casing and drilling tools.However,the extent and process of this damage to the downhole tools is intricate and less understood.In order to systematically evaluate and clarify this damage process for different types of drilling fluid contamination,this research uses a high-temperature drilling fluid damage device to simulate the damage caused to the casing/drilling tools by various drilling fluid under a field thermal gradient.The results show that the drilling fluid residues are mainly solid-phase particles and organic components.The degree of casing/tool damage decreases with an increase in bottom hole temperature,and the casing/tool is least damaged within a temperature range of 150–180°C.Moreover,the surface of the casing/tool damaged by different types of drilling fluid shows different roughness,and the wettability of drilling fluid on the casing/tool surface increases with an increase in the degree of roughness.Oil-based drilling fluid have the strongest adhesion contamination on casing/drilling tools.In contrast,polysulfonated potassium drilling fluid and super-micro drilling fluid have the most potent erosion damage on casing/drilling tools.By analyzing the damage mechanism,it was established that the damage was mainly dominated by the abrasive wearing from solid-phase particles in concert with corrosion ions in drilling fluid,with solids producing many abrasion marks and corrosive ions causing a large number of pits.Clarifying drilling fluid's contamination and damage mechanism is significant in guiding the wellbore cleaning process and cutting associated costs.

文摘The magnesium based metal hydrogen storage composite system Mg(NH_(2))_(2)-2LiH has a theoretical hydro-gen storage capacity of 5.6 wt.%and is a promising hydrogen storage material for vehicles.However,its application is limited due to serious thermodynamic and kinetic barriers.Introducing efficient catalysts is an effective method to improve the hydrogen storage performance of Mg(NH_(2))_(2)-2LiH.This article in-vestigates for the first time the use of nano rare earth oxide CeO_(2)(~44.5 nm)as an efficient modifier,achieving comprehensive regulation of the hydrogen storage performance of Mg(NH_(2))_(2)-2LiH composite system through oxygen vacancy driven catalysis.The modification mechanism of nano CeO_(2) is also sys-tematically studied using density functional theory(DFT)calculations and experimental results.Research has shown that the comprehensive hydrogen storage performance of the Mg(NH_(2))_(2)-2LiH-5 wt.%CeO_(2) composite system is optimal,with high hydrogen absorption and desorption kinetics and reversible per-formance.The initial hydrogen absorption and desorption temperatures of the composite system were significantly reduced from 110/130℃to 65/80℃,and the release of by-product ammonia was signifi-cantly inhibited.Under the conditions of 170℃/50 min and 180℃/100 min,4.37 wt.%of hydrogen can be rapidly absorbed and released.After 10 cycles of hydrogen release,the hydrogen cycle retention rate increased from 85%to nearly 100%.Further mechanistic studies have shown that the nano CeO_(2-x) gen-erated in situ during hydrogen evolution can effectively weaken the Mg-N and N-H bonds of Mg(NH_(2))_(2),exhibiting good catalytic effects.Meanwhile,oxygen vacancies provide a fast pathway for the diffusion of hydrogen atoms in the composite system.In addition,nano CeO_(2-x) can effectively inhibit the polycrys-talline transformation of the hydrogen evolving product Li_(2)MgN_(2)H_(2) in the system at high temperatures,reducing the difficulty of re-hydrogenation of the system.This study provides an innovative perspective for the efficient modification of magnesium based metal hydrogen storage composite materials using rare earth based catalysts,and also provides a reference for regulating the comprehensive hydrogen storage performance of hydrogen storage materials using rare earth catalysts with oxygen vacancies.

文摘Graphite-silicon species(Gr-Si)hybrid anodes have merged as potential candidates for high-energy lithium-ion batteries(LIBs),yet long been plagued by rapid capacity fading due to their unstable mechano-electrochemistry.The dominant approach to enhance electrochemical stability of the Gr-Si hybrid anodes typically involves the optimization of the electrode material structures and the employment of low active Si species content in electrode(<10 wt%in most instances).However,the electrode structure design,a factor of equal importance in determining the electrochemical performance of Gr-Si hybrid anodes,has received scant attention.In this study,three Gr-Si hybrid anodes with the identical material composition but distinct electrode structures are designed to investigate the mechanoelectrochemistry of the electrodes.It is revealed that the substantial volume change of Si species particles in Gr-Si hybrid anodes led to the local lattice stress of Gr at their contact interface during the charge/discharge processes,thereby increasing thermodynamic and kinetic barrier of Li-ion migration.Furthermore,the huge disparity in volume change of Si species and Gr particles trigger the separate agglomeration of these two materials,resulting in a considerable electrode volume change and increased electrochemical resistance.An advanced Gr/Si hybrid anode with upper Gr and lower Si species layer structure design addresses the above challenges using photovoltaic waste silicon sources under high Si species content(17 wt%)and areal capacity(2.0 mA h cm^(-2))in Ah-level full pouch cells with a low negative/positive(N/P)ratio of 1.09.The cell shows stable cycling for 100 cycles at 0.3 C with an impressively low capacity decay rate of 0.0546%per cycle,outperforming most reported Gr-Si hybrid anodes.
