During the plugging process, the violent vibration will occur by the flow field, which can cause serious damage to the pipeline and PIPR. In this paper, we propose a dynamic regulating strategy to reduce the plugging-induced vibration by regulating the spoiler angle and plugging velocity. Firstly, the dynamic plugging simulation and experiment are performed to study the flow field changes during dynamic plugging. And the pressure difference is proposed to evaluate the degree of flow field vibration. Secondly, the mathematical models of pressure difference with plugging states and spoiler angles are established based on the extreme learning machine (ELM) optimized by improved sparrow search algorithm (ISSA). Finally, a modified Q-learning algorithm based on simulated annealing is applied to determine the optimal strategy for the spoiler angle and plugging velocity in real time. The results show that the proposed method can reduce the plugging-induced vibration by 19.9% and 32.7% on average, compared with single-regulating methods. This study can effectively ensure the stability of the plugging process.展开更多

One-cycle control is an effective nonlinear signal modulation control method. In this paper, a new one-cycle control scheme for DVR was proposed in single phase supply system. On the basis of principle analysis, the corresponding one-cycle control model for DVR was built up, which is characterized by simple control circuits, good control performance, and high control precision. As an example, a control model for single-phase DVR was simulated by using Matlab/Simulink and SimPowerSystem. The results show that the load voltage could be compensated quickly at the points of supply voltage stepping down and up, and the relative error was less than 4% in the whole voltage sag process. Both theory analysis and simulation results show that the new one-cycle control scheme for DVR is effective.展开更多

文摘Control strategy affects directly the working performances of dynamic voltage regulator (DVR). One-cycle control is an effective nonlinear signal modulation control method. In this paper, a new one-cycle control scheme for DVR was proposed in single phase supply system. On the basis of principle analysis, the corresponding one-cycle control model for DVR was built up, which is characterized by simple control circuits, good control performance, and high control precision. As an example, a control model for single-phase DVR was simulated by using Matlab/Simulink and SimPowerSystem. The results show that the load voltage could be compensated quickly at the points of supply voltage stepping down and up, and the relative error was less than 4% in the whole voltage sag process. Both theory analysis and simulation results show that the new one-cycle control scheme for DVR is effective.

文摘The dynamic regulation of single-molecule magnet(SMM)behavior remains challenging but extremely critical to practical applications.Efficient manipulation of magnetization of complexes via external stimulus,like solvent,pressure,electric potential or light may further extend the scope of applications for these magnetic molecules.Among these,light is highly desirable because it can provide high-contrast,sensitive and remote control of magnetic behavior at relatively high spatial and temporal resolution.Lanthanide(Ln)complexes represent a distinctive platform for constructing photo-responsive SMMs owing to their extreme sensitivity to subtle change of crystal field(CF)environment.Despite the numerous potential benefits and unique advantages outlined above,light control of magnetism of Ln-SMMs still faces several challenges.This review briefly summarizes recent advancements of photo-responsive Ln-SMMs with photochromic characteristic,highlighting the significance of photoinduced structural changes or electronic distribution alterations to modulate the magnetic properties,which may throw light on the future improvements of photo-responsive molecular materials.

文摘Chiral metal-organic frameworks(CMOFs),characterized by their enantioselective porous architectures,intrinsic chirality,and precisely ordered active sites,have emerged as a transformative class of materials with applications spanning asymmetric catalysis,enantiomeric separation,and chiral sensing.In this study,persulfurated arenes,as AIEgens with photoexcitation activity,were used as fluorescent dyes.Usingγ-cyclodextrin as a chiral template,we constructed a photo-responsive CMOF via intermolecular hydrogen bonding.The co-assembly process exhibited remarkable phenomena of chiral amplification and transfer,generating bright yellow fluorescence under mild UV irradiation at 365 nm.Deprotonated persulfurated arenes were used for comparative studies,and the resulting photoresponsive chiral metal-organic frameworks showed signals of reversed peaks at 400 and 460 nm.This study provides a novel construction strategy for chiral metal-organic frameworks featuring dual dynamic regulation mechanisms mediated by hydrogen bonding and photoirradiation.

文摘Radical-metal compounds used as functional materials can be applied to multiple fields such as solar-thermal conversion and ultra-high density data storage.However,the reactivity and instability of organic radicals usually hamper the development and application of radical-metal compounds.Herein,we utilized persistent nitronyl nitroxide to construct two categories of nitronyl nitroxide-Ln compounds,[Gd_(3)(hfac)_(9)(NIT4bpym)_(2)]_(2)·4CH_(2)Cl_(2)·C_(6)H_(14)(1-Gd),[Dy_(3)(hfac)_(9)(NIT4bpym)_(2)](1-Dy)and[Dy_(3)(hfac)_(9)(NITPzCH_(2)IM)_(2)]·2CH_(2)Cl_(2)(2-Dy)(NIT4bpym=2),2′-dipyridyl-4-(1′-oxyl-3′-oxido-4′,4′,5′,5′-tetramethyl-4,5-hydro-1H-imidazol-2-yl);NITPzCH_(2)IM=[2-(1-methylimidazole)methyl-1-pyrazol]-4-(1′-oxyl-3′-oxido-4′,4′,5′,5′-tetramethyl-4,5-hydro-1H-imidazol-2-yl)(hfac=hexafluoroacetylacetonate),involving a rare[4f-2p-4f-2p-4f]multi-spin motif with an electron donor-acceptor pattern.Notably,thanks to the rigidity modification of nitronyl nitroxide,prominent enhancement of photothermal conversion efficiency from 56.9% to 74.0% and the magnetic switching phenomenon have been observed with molecular structure transformation from flexibility(2-Dy)to stiffness(1-Dy),offering an avenue for the regulation of the photothermal effect and magnetic dynamics.

文摘L-malic acid is widely used in biomedicine,food chemicals and other fields.The production process of L-malic acid by Escherichia coli suffers from the problems of unconcentrated carbon flow distribution and low CO_(2) fix-ation efficiency.In our previous research,the high-yielding L-malic acid chassis strain that could utilize the T7 expression system was constructed,with only partially blocked the malate consumption pathway.In this study,the transcriptome analysis to determine the direction of carbon flow allocation was performed firstly.To increase the carbon flux for the conversion of oxaloacetate to L-malic acid,the malate dehydrogenase was expressed in E.coli alone or in combination.A CO_(2) fixation branch was constructed by introducing the ribulose 5-phosphate kinase(PRK)and ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate kinase carboxylase/oxygenase(RuBisCO).Moreover,the dynamic regulatory system was designed that the pyruvate responded to dynamically repress genes on the metabolic pathway and concentrate carbon fluxes to balance in carbon flux distribution while maintaining the normal metabolism in the strain.The metabolic fluxes were directed to the L-malic acid synthesis pathway with the elucidation on the regulatory mechanism of carbon fluxes in this pathway.The engineered strain that dynamically regulated the pykF gene and introduced pET28a-mdh1+mdh2 and pETDuet-prk+RuBisco achieved a glucose consumption of 41.08 g/L,resulting in the highest L-malic acid titer of 23.00 g/L,with an increase of 202% from the starting strain.It demonstrates an effective strategy for the carbon flow allocation in the L-malic acid biosynthesis.

文摘(+)-Nootkatone,a valuable grapefruit-derived sesquiterpenoid,is targeted for microbial production to address its limited availability.In this study,we reported the highest de novo biosynthesis of(+)-nootkatone in Escherichia coli using stress-response systems for dynamic regulation to overcome challenges associated with metabolic promiscuity.Initial screening farnesyl diphosphate(FPP)synthase and cytochrome P450 led to a chassis strain producing 10.7 mg/L(+)-nootkatone.Implementing an FPP-responsive dynamic regulation system(PgadE and PrstA)increased the titer to 67.0 mg/L by preventing farnesol accumulation.The production was further increased to 128.9 mg/L through PrstA promoter engineering and baffle flasks.Fed-batch strategies ultimately achieved a final titer of 165.1 mg/L,a 15-fold improvement over static regulation.These results establish a platform for(+)-nootkatone biosynthesis in E.coli and highlight the importance of stress-response dynamic regulation for CYP450-mediated terpenoid production,offering a strong foundation for terpene derivative biosynthesis.

文摘D-allulose,a low-caloric sweetener,represents a promising alternative to sucrose across diverse applications.In contrast to enzymatic production,fermentation-based approaches coupled with metabolic engineering strategies present a more economically viable and operationally streamlined production route.Nevertheless,traditional regulatory tools,including gene deletion and isopropylβ-D-thiogalactoside(IPTG)-mediated induction,exhibit limitations in achieving precise temporal control over metabolic processes.Herein,two mutually orthogonal optogenetic systems were combined with clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats interference(CRISPRi)technology to enable the spatiotemporal control of cellular behavior and dynamically reallocate metabolic resources.Specifically,the YF1/FixJ and iLight-ho1 systems were employed in the CRISPRi/dCpf1 system,with protein production triggered by blue light and dark conditions,respectively,to redirect metabolic pathways towards D-allulose production,enables precise balancing without the metabolic fragility caused by gene knockout.Consequently,D-allulose production achieved a titer of 5.924 g/L,indicating a 3.26-fold increase compared to the unregulated control,with a productivity of 0.197 g/L/h and an in vitro conversion yield(the intracellular D-allulose to residual D-fructose ratio)of 75.8%.These represented the highest titer,productivity and in vitro conversion yield of D-allulose from D-fructose by fermentation reported to date.The findings validate the dual-opto-CRISPRi system as an efficient metabolic engineering strategy for enhancing product yields,highlighting its potential for broader industrial applications.

文摘Camouflage technology has garnered increasing attention for various applications.With the continuous advancement of detection technologies and the increasing variability of camouflage scenarios,the demand for multispectral dynamic camouflage has been steadily growing.In this work,we present a multispectral dynamic regulator based on phase-changing material vanadium dioxide(VO_(2))that can be dynamically and functional-independently regulated for reflective color and thermal radiation.It has been shown that the device can achieve a wide color gamut variation in visible band while simultaneously achieving highest emissivity tunability(Δε=-0.58)in the atmospheric window up to now,achieves multispectral camouflage spanning the visible and infrared spectra among VO_(2)-based devices.To go a step further,we advance the device featuring long-term cycling stability to achieve thermal-electric dual-mode response and flexibility for a series real-world camouflage performance evaluation.We have also demonstrated the digital camouflage based on multispectral dynamic regulator through Neighboring Color Block Camouflage Algorithm,highlighting its potential for practical implementation in different camouflage scenarios.The device achieves multispectral dynamic camouflage,opening a path for advancing the technology development in both the scientific field and practical applications.

文摘Asymmetric deformations in soft materials are ubiquitous in nature and play a crucial role in various biological and mechanical processes,yet current fabrication strategies primarily focus on introducing anisotropy while overlooking the internal transfer of stress,energy,or matter.In this work,we discovered a pattern mapping behavior driven by the selective distribution of photochemical crosslinking regions and the application of external stress fields,resulting in complementary mappable structures on the opposite side of the material.Theoretical simulations and experimental results reveal that the key to pattern mapping lies in the asymmetric deformation along the stretching direction of the material,coupled with the migration of polymer chains within the soft material.Employing complementary stress fields,2D ordered or 3D hierarchical patterns can be precisely mapped onto both sides.Moreover,upon thermal stimulation,the mapped patterns and macroscopic deformations demonstrate outstanding reversibility across multiple cycles.This result reveals mapping behaviors induced by asymmetric deformations and polymer chain migration within soft materials under external stress fields,offering valuable insights for designing structures with interactive functionalities.
