A layer of sol-gel TiO2 films was applied on the alloy samples followed by active treatment in the bio-functionalized solution for introducing the OH- and groups, and then the heparin was immobilized on the active TiO2 films through the electrostatic self assembly technology. It is shown that the heparinized films are mainly composed of anatase and rutile with smooth and dense surface. In vitro blood compatibility was evaluated by haemolysis test, clotting time and platelet adhesion behavior tests. The results show that the haemocompatibility of the alloy could be significantly improved by surface heparinization.展开更多

文摘Fungi play crucial roles in nutrient acquisition,plant growth promotion,and the enhancement of resistance to both abiotic and biotic stresses.However,studies on the fungal communities associated with peas (Pisum sativum L.) remain limited.In this study,we systematically investigated the ecological effects of host niches (soil,root,stem,leaf,and pod) and genotypes on the diversity and composition of fungal communities in peas using a multi-level approach that encompassed pattern recognition (β-diversity decomposition),mechanism validation (neutral community model testing),and dynamic tracking methods (migration pathway source-tracking).The results revealed that the dominant fungal phyla across niches and genotypes were Ascomycota,Basidiomycota,and Mortierellomycota,and the community structures of the soil–plant continuum were primarily determined by the pea niches rather than genotypes.β-diversity decomposition was largely attributed to species replacement rather than richness differences,indicating strong niche specificity and microbial replacement across microhabitats.Neutral model analysis revealed that stochastic processes influenced genotypeassociated communities,while deterministic processes played a dominant role in niche-based community assembly.Source-tracking analysis identified niche-to-niche fungal migration,with Erysiphe,Fusarium,Cephaliophora,Ascobolus,Alternaria,and Aspergillus as the key genera.Migration rates from exogenous to endogenous niches were low (1.3–61.5%),whereas those within exogenous (64.4–83.7%) or endogenous (73.9–96.4%) compartments were much higher,suggesting that the pea epidermis acts as a selective barrier that filters and enriches microbial communities prior to internal colonization.This study provides comprehensive insights into the mechanisms of host filtering,enrichment and microbial sourcing,which increases our understanding of the assembly rules of the pea-associated fungal microbiome.

文摘Aircraft assembly is characterized by stringent precedence constraints,limited resource availability,spatial restrictions,and a high degree of manual intervention.These factors lead to considerable variability in operator workloads and significantly increase the complexity of scheduling.To address this challenge,this study investigates the Aircraft Pulsating Assembly Line Scheduling Problem(APALSP)under skilled operator allocation,with the objective of minimizing assembly completion time.A mathematical model considering skilled operator allocation is developed,and a Q-Learning improved Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm(QLPSO)is proposed.In the algorithm design,a reverse scheduling strategy is adopted to effectively manage large-scale precedence constraints.Moreover,a reverse sequence encoding method is introduced to generate operation sequences,while a time decoding mechanism is employed to determine completion times.The problem is further reformulated as a Markov Decision Process(MDP)with explicitly defined state and action spaces.Within QLPSO,the Q-learning mechanism adaptively adjusts inertia weights and learning factors,thereby achieving a balance between exploration capability and convergence performance.To validate the effectiveness of the proposed approach,extensive computational experiments are conducted on benchmark instances of different scales,including small,medium,large,and ultra-large cases.The results demonstrate that QLPSO consistently delivers stable and high-quality solutions across all scenarios.In ultra-large-scale instances,it improves the best solution by 25.2%compared with the Genetic Algorithm(GA)and enhances the average solution by 16.9%over the Q-learning algorithm,showing clear advantages over the comparative methods.These findings not only confirm the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm but also provide valuable theoretical references and practical guidance for the intelligent scheduling optimization of aircraft pulsating assembly lines.

文摘The development of electrocatalysts that both work effectively at industrial current density and resist chloride ion(Cl^(-))corrosion remains a key challenge for hydrogen production from Cl^(-)-rich alkaline water.Herein,we report a CrO_(x)-engineered nickel-based oxide catalyst(FeCoCrO_(x)/NF)that achieves exceptional activity and stability through a dual-functional interfacial mechanism.Combing in situ Raman spectroscopy,18O isotopic labeling,and electrochemical analysis,we demonstrate that the oxygen evolution reaction follows a lattice oxygen-mediated mechanism.The CrO_(x)layer selectively adsorbs hydroxide ions,forming a dynamic interfacial barrier that electrostatically repels Cl^(-)ingress,thereby mitigating Cl^(-)corrosion.Through enthalpy-based analysis,we demonstrate that electronic redistribution via Cr-O-Fe bonding increases the vacancy formation energy of Fe,thereby suppressing its dissolution.In alkaline electrolyte containing 0.5 M Cl^(-)(1.0 M KOH),the catalyst is operating continuously for 1400 h at an industrial current density of 1000 mA cm^(-2).Furthermore,the catalyst retains 99.5%of its initial activity under fluctuating current density(100-1000 mA cm^(-2)),demonstrating robustness required for industrial electrolyzers.This study establishes a paradigm for designing corrosion-resistant electrocatalysts through the synergistic modulation of interfacial ion selectivity and bulk lattice oxygen activation,advancing the application of green hydrogen production in Cl^(-)-rich alkaline water.

文摘Adjuvants enhance and prolong the immune response to therapeutic agents,such as drugs and vaccines.However,conventional adjuvants have limitations in terms of immune specificity and duration.Nanoadjuvants can leverage their nanoscale size to increase the capture efficacy of antigens by antigen-presenting cells and improve immunogen presentation for targeted delivery.Furthermore,noninvasive visualization of bifunctional nanoadjuvants with integrated efficacy and imaging postdelivery can provide insights into in vivo distribution and performance,aiding in the optimization and design of new dosage forms.This review systematically summarizes the structure,assembly,and function of nanoadjuvants alongside contrast agents.It delves into the impact of complex structures formed by nanoadjuvant-contrast agent interactions on antigen presentation,migration,imaging tracking,and visualization of immune cell recruitment.It also discusses how imaging can determine optimal immune intervals,vaccine safety,and toxicity while enabling diagnostic and therapeutic integration.Moreover,this paper discusses potential applications of novel adjuvants and promising imaging technologies that could have implications for future vaccine and drug development endeavors.

文摘Self-supported nanoarrays have emerged as a promising alternative electrocatalyst for alkaline H_(2)O splitting,owing to their accessible active sites and strongly coupled interfaces with current collectors for improved mass transfer and stability.Herein,self-supported crystalline/amorphous NiO/Ni(OH)_(2)nanosheet arrays on nickel foam(NF)are fabricated via an in-situ dissolution-deposition hydrothermal growing of Ni(OH)_(2)nanosheets without additional metal sources assisted by a common Lewis base,EDTA,followed by a rapid calcination at 300℃in air.The as-prepared EDTA-NF-12 h exhibits high OER and HER performance under alkaline conditions,requiring 235 mV and 158 mV,respectively,to reach 10 mA cm^(-2),and the decent performance can be maintained for 24 h without obvious degradation.The dual interfaces,i.e.,the dense crystalline/amorphous interfaces within the NiO/Ni(OH)_(2)nanosheet arrays,as well as the intimate interfaces between nanoarrays and NF,both serve as reaction active sites,facilitate electron transfer,and endow the catalyst with high activity and stability.Furthermore,by applying EDTA-Ni^(2+)and other Lewis bases with varying basicities instead of EDTA,the interfaces with the NF substrate are found to promote the formation of crystalline/amorphous interfaces within the nanosheets.This study offers appealing opportunities for tailoring the electrocatalytic performance of self-supported electrodes via dual interface engineering.

文摘Self-trapped excitons(STEs),known for their unique radiative properties,have been harnessed in diverse photonic devices;however,their comprehensive understanding and manipulation remain elusive.In this study,we present novel experimental and theoretical evidence revealing the hybrid nature and optical tunability of STE state in Cs_(2)Ag_(0.4)Na_(0.6)InCl_(6).The detection of the Fano resonance in laser energy-dependent Raman and photoluminescence spectra indicates the emergence of an exciton-phonon hybrid state,arising from robust quantum interference between the discrete phonon and continuum exciton states.Moreover,we demonstrate continuous tuning of this hybrid state with the energy and intensity of the laser field.These findings lay the foundation for a comprehensive understanding of the nature of STE and their potential for state control.
文摘Modern manufacturing processes have become more reliant on automation because of the accelerated transition from Industry 3.0 to Industry 4.0.Manual inspection of products on assembly lines remains inefficient,prone to errors and lacks consistency,emphasizing the need for a reliable and automated inspection system.Leveraging both object detection and image segmentation approaches,this research proposes a vision-based solution for the detection of various kinds of tools in the toolkit using deep learning(DL)models.Two Intel RealSense D455f depth cameras were arranged in a top down configuration to capture both RGB and depth images of the toolkits.After applying multiple constraints and enhancing them through preprocessing and augmentation,a dataset consisting of 3300 annotated RGB-D photos was generated.Several DL models were selected through a comprehensive assessment of mean Average Precision(mAP),precision-recall equilibrium,inference latency(target≥30 FPS),and computational burden,resulting in a preference for YOLO and Region-based Convolutional Neural Networks(R-CNN)variants over ViT-based models due to the latter’s increased latency and resource requirements.YOLOV5,YOLOV8,YOLOV11,Faster R-CNN,and Mask R-CNN were trained on the annotated dataset and evaluated using key performance metrics(Recall,Accuracy,F1-score,and Precision).YOLOV11 demonstrated balanced excellence with 93.0%precision,89.9%recall,and a 90.6%F1-score in object detection,as well as 96.9%precision,95.3%recall,and a 96.5%F1-score in instance segmentation with an average inference time of 25 ms per frame(≈40 FPS),demonstrating real-time performance.Leveraging these results,a YOLOV11-based windows application was successfully deployed in a real-time assembly line environment,where it accurately processed live video streams to detect and segment tools within toolkits,demonstrating its practical effectiveness in industrial automation.The application is capable of precisely measuring socket dimensions by utilising edge detection techniques on YOLOv11 segmentation masks,in addition to detection and segmentation.This makes it possible to do specification-level quality control right on the assembly line,which improves the ability to examine things in real time.The implementation is a big step forward for intelligent manufacturing in the Industry 4.0 paradigm.It provides a scalable,efficient,and accurate way to do automated inspection and dimensional verification activities.

文摘The haemocompatibility of Ti-3Zr-2Sn-3Mo-25Nb biomedical alloy was studied after surface heparinization. A layer of sol-gel TiO2 films was applied on the alloy samples followed by active treatment in the bio-functionalized solution for introducing the OH- and groups, and then the heparin was immobilized on the active TiO2 films through the electrostatic self assembly technology. It is shown that the heparinized films are mainly composed of anatase and rutile with smooth and dense surface. In vitro blood compatibility was evaluated by haemolysis test, clotting time and platelet adhesion behavior tests. The results show that the haemocompatibility of the alloy could be significantly improved by surface heparinization.

文摘Swarm intelligence embodied by many species such as ants and bees has inspired scholars in swarm robotic researches. This paper presents a novel autonomous self-assembly distributed swarm flying robot-DSFR, which can drive on the ground, autonomously accomplish self-assembly and then fly in the air coordinately. Mechanical and electrical designs of a DSFR module, as well as the kinematics and dynamics analysis, are specifically investigated. Meanwhile, this paper brings forward a generalized adjacency matrix to describe configurations of DSFR structures. Also, the distributed flight control model is established for vertical taking-off and horizontal hovering, which can be applied to control of DSFR systems with arbitrary configurations. Finally, some experiments are carried out to testify and validate the DSFR design, the autonomous self-assembly strategy and the distributed flight control laws.
