文摘Against the backdrop of escalating global climate change and energy crises,the resource utilization of carbon dioxide(CO_(2)),a major greenhouse gas,has become a crucial pathway for achieving carbon peaking and carbon neutrality goals.The hydrogenation of CO_(2)to methanol not only enables carbon sequestration and recycling,but also provides a route to produce high value-added fuels and basic chemical feedstocks,holding significant environmental and economic potential.However,this conversion process is thermodynamically and kinetically limited,and traditional catalyst systems(e.g.,Cu/ZnO/Al_(2)O_(3))exhibit inadequate activity,selectivity,and stability under mild conditions.Therefore,the development of novel high-performance catalysts with precisely tunable structures and functionalities is imperative.Metal-organic frameworks(MOFs),as crystalline porous materials with high surface area,tunable pore structures,and diverse metal-ligand compositions,have the great potential in CO_(2)hydrogenation catalysis.Their structural design flexibility allows for the construction of well-dispersed active sites,tailored electronic environments,and enhanced metal-support interactions.This review systematically summarizes the recent advances in MOF-based and MOF-derived catalysts for CO_(2)hydrogenation to methanol,focusing on four design strategies:(1)spatial confinement and in situ construction,(2)defect engineering and ion-exchange,(3)bimetallic synergy and hybrid structure design,and(4)MOF-derived nanomaterial synthesis.These approaches significantly improve CO_(2)conversion and methanol selectivity by optimizing metal dispersion,interfacial structures,and reaction pathways.The reaction mechanism is further explored by focusing on the three main reaction pathways:the formate pathway(HCOO*),the RWGS(Reverse Water Gas Shift reaction)+CO*hydrogenation pathway,and the trans-COOH pathway.In situ spectroscopic studies and density functional theory(DFT)calculations elucidate the formation and transformation of key intermediates,as well as the roles of active sites,metal-support interfaces,oxygen vacancies,and promoters.Additionally,representative catalytic performance data for MOFbased systems are compiled and compared,demonstrating their advantages over traditional catalysts in terms of CO_(2)conversion,methanol selectivity,and space-time yield.Future perspectives for MOF-based CO_(2)hydrogenation catalysts will prioritize two main directions:structural design and mechanistic understanding.The precise construction of active sites through multi-metallic synergy,defect engineering,and interfacial electronic modulation should be made to enhance catalyst selectivity and stability.In addition,advanced in situ characterization techniques combined with theoretical modeling are essential to unravel the detailed reaction mechanisms and intermediate behaviors,thereby guiding rational catalyst design.Moreover,to enable industrial application,challenges related to thermal/hydrothermal stability,catalyst recyclability,and cost-effective large-scale synthesis must be addressed.The development of green,scalable preparation methods and the integration of MOF catalysts into practical reaction systems(e.g.,flow reactors)will be crucial for bridging the gap between laboratory research and commercial deployment.Ultimately,multi-scale structure-performance optimization and catalytic system integration will be vital for accelerating the industrialization of MOF-based CO_(2)-to-methanol technologies.

文摘The electrochemical oxidation of biomass-derived platform molecule 5-hydroxymethylfurfural(HMF)represents a crucial pathway for green transformation into high-value chemicals,yet its reaction pathway selectivity,efficiency,and catalyst stability are strongly dependent on the electrolyte pH environment.Under alkaline conditions,high OH−concentration facilitates preferential aldehyde group oxidation and efficient deprotonation,enabling highly efficient synthesis of 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid,but simultaneously induces HMF self-degradation and complicates product separation.As pH decreases,the reaction mechanism shifts toward enhanced hydroxymethyl oxidation,leading to intermediate accumulation(such as 5-hydroxymethyl-2-furancarboxylic acid,2,5-diformylfuran,and 5-formyl-2-furancarboxylic acid)with challenging selectivity control and significantly slowed reaction kinetics.This review comprehensively examines the systematic differences in HMF oxidation pathways and surface catalytic mechanisms across the full pH range from alkaline to acidic conditions.Addressing the distinct reaction characteristics and core challenges in alkaline,near-neutral,and acidic media,we systematically evaluate design strategies for high-efficiency electrocatalysts and explore reactor design aspects.Future research should focus on process integration(with tailored reactor design)for energy consumption reduction in alkaline systems,targeted synthesis of diverse oxidation products in near-neutral systems,and innovative catalyst development for acidic systems,thereby advancing the efficiency,selectivity,and practical application of HMF electrooxidation technologies across the entire pH spectrum through synergistic optimization of catalyst,reactor,and process.

文摘In mixture experiments,the observed response is determined by the relative proportions of the components,consequently rendering the experimental region a simplex.This paper focuses primarily on the optimal designs of mixture experiments that involve process variables.Prior research has extensively delved into optimal orthogonal block designs for some classic mixture models with process variables.Based on the framework of general blending models,this paper proposes a class of symmetric linear mixture models,which can be regarded as a generalization of many existing ones.Under the orthogonal blocking conditions,orthogonal block designs are devised through Latin squares in the presence of process variables.TheD-,A-,and E-optimality criteria are utilized to obtain optimal designs at the boundary of the simplex in the case of 3 components.As the values of the exponents change,numerically derived optimal design points are presented to illustrate the pattern of their variations,and to verify the consistency of the results with previous research on some specific symmetric general blending models.

文摘This article presents the design of a microfabricated bio-inspired flapping-wing Nnano Aaerial Vvehicle(NAV),driven by an electromagnetic system.Our approach is based on artificial wings composed of rigid bodies connected by compliant links,which optimise aerodynamic forces though replicating the complex wing kinematics of insects.The originality of this article lies in a new design methodology based on a triple equivalence between a 3D model,a multibody model,and a mass/spring model(0D)which reduces the number of parameters in the problem.This approach facilitates NAV optimisation by using only the mass/spring model,thereby simplifying the design process while maintaining high accuracy.Two wing geometries are studied and optimised in this article to produce large-amplitude wing motions(approximately 40^\circ),and enabling flapping and twisting motion in quadrature.The results are validated thanks to experimental measurements for the large amplitude and through finite element simulations for the combined motion,confirming the effectiveness of this strategy for a NAV weighing less than 40 mg with a wingspan of under 3 cm.
文摘Hepatocellular carcinoma presents with three distinct immune phenotypes,including immune-desert,immune-excluded,and immune-inflamed,indicating various treatment responses and prognostic outcomes.The clinical application of multi-omics parameters is still restricted by the expensive and less accessible assays,although they accurately reflect immune status.A comprehensive evaluation framework based on“easy-to-obtain”multi-model clinical parameters is urgently required,incorporating clinical features to establish baseline patient profiles and disease staging;routine blood tests assessing systemic metabolic and functional status;immune cell subsets quantifying subcluster dynamics;imaging features delineating tumor morphology,spatial configuration,and perilesional anatomical relationships;immunohistochemical markers positioning qualitative and quantitative detection of tumor antigens from the cellular and molecular level.This integrated phenomic approach aims to improve prognostic stratification and clinical decision-making in hepatocellular carcinoma management conveniently and practically.

文摘Memristors have emerged as a transformative technology in the realm of electronic devices,offering unique advantages such as fast switching speeds,low power consumption,and the ability to sensor-memory-compute.The applications span across non-volatile memory,neuromorphic computing,hardware security,and beyond,prompting memristors to become a versatile solution for next-generation computing and data storage systems.Despite enormous potential of memristors,the transition from laboratory prototypes to large-scale applications is challenging in terms of material stability,device reproducibility,and array scalability.This review systematically explores recent advancements in high-performance memristor technologies,focusing on performance enhancement strategies through material engineering,structural design,pulse protocol optimization,and algorithm control.We provide an in-depth analysis of key performance metrics tailored to specific applications,including non-volatile memory,neuromorphic computing,and hardware security.Furthermore,we propose a co-design framework that integrates device-level optimizations with operational-level improvements,aiming to bridge the gap between theoretical models and practical implementations.
文摘Compact size,high brightness,and wide field of view(FOV)are key requirements for long-wave infrared imagers used in military surveillance or night navigation.However,to meet the imaging requirements of high resolution and wide FOV,infrared optical systems often adopt complex optical lens groups,which will increase the size and weight of the optical system.In this paper,a strategy based on wavefront coding(WFC)is proposed to design a compact wide-FOV infrared imager.A cubic phase mask is inserted into the pupil plane of the infrared imager to correct the aberration.The simulated results show that,the WFC infrared imager has good imaging quality in a wide FOV of±16°.In addition,the WFC infrared imager achieves compactness with its 40 mm×40 mm×40 mm size.A fast focal ratio of 1 combined with an entrance pupil diameter of 25 mm ensures brightness.This work is of significance for designing a compact wide-FOV infrared imager.

文摘Presented in this study is a novel method for estimating the depth of single underwater source in shallow water,utilizing vector sensors.The approach leverages the depth distribution of the broadband Stokes parameters to estimate source depth accurately.Unlike traditional matched field processing(MFP)and matched mode processing(MMP),the proposed approach can estimate source depth directly from the data received by sensors without requiring complete environmental information.Firstly,the broadband Stokes parameters(BSP)are established using the normal mode theory.Then the nonstationary phase approximation is used to simplify the theoretical derivation,which is necessary when dealing with broadband integrals.Additionally,range terms of the BSP are eliminated by normalization.By analyzing the depth distribution of the normalized broadband Stokes parameters(NBSP),it is found that the NBSP exhibit extreme values at the source depth,which can be used for source depth estimation.So the proposed depth estimation method is based on searching the peaks of the NBSP.Simulations show that this method is effective in relatively simple shallow water environments.Finally,the effect of source range,frequency bandwidth,sound speed profile(SSP),water depth,and signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)are studied.The findings indicate that the proposed method can accurately estimate the source depth when the SNR is greater than-5 d B and does not need to consider model mismatch issues.Additionally,variations in environmental parameters have minimal impact on estimation accuracy.Compared to MFP,the proposed method requires a higher SNR,but demonstrates superior robustness against fluctuations in environmental parameters.
