The experimental results show that three-stage phase transformation can be induced at a very low cooling rate such as cooling in furnace. The cooling rate also has a great influence on the phase transformation temperatures. Both martensitic start transformation temperature （Ms） and martensitic finish transformation temperature （Mf） decrease with the decrease of the cooling rate, and decreasing the cooling rate contributes to enhancing the M→A austenite transformation temperature. The phase transformation hysteresis （Af-Mf） increases with the decrease of the cooling rate. Heat treatment is unable to eliminate the textures formed in hot working of NiTi sample, but can weaken the intensity of them. The cooling rate has little influence on the grain size.展开更多

文摘The flow of a tetra-hybrid Casson nanofluid(Al_(2)O_(3)-CuO-TiO_(2)-Ag/H_(2)O)over a nonlinear stretching sheet is investigated.The Buongiorno model is used to account for thermophoresis and Brownian motion,while thermal radiation is incorporated to examine its influence on the thermal boundary layer.The governing partial differential equations(PDEs)are reduced to a system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations(ODEs)with fully non-dimensional similarity transformations involving all independent variables.To solve the obtained highly nonlinear system of differential equations,a novel Clique polynomial collocation method is applied.The analysis focuses on the effects of the Casson parameter,power index,radiation parameter,thermophoresis parameter,Brownian motion parameter,and Lewis number.The key findings show that thermal radiation intensifies the thermal boundary layer,the Casson parameter reduces the velocity,and the Lewis number suppresses the concentration with direct relevance to polymer processing,coating flows,electronic cooling,and biomedical applications.

文摘Peanuts(Arachis hypogaea) are important sources of vegetable oil,protein,and forage.The genus Arachis comprises nine intrageneric taxonomic sections encompassing 84 species.Most Arachis species are wild plants that serve widely as forage and turfgrass.Furthermore,wild Arachis species provide valuable gene resources for broadening the genetic diversity of cultivated peanuts.To date,several key genes have been identified through the use of recombinant inbred lines derived from interspecific crosses within Arachis.Despite this progress,the application of genetic engineering to enhance peanut traits remains limited.This limitation arises primarily from the absence of a robust and reliable genetic transformation protocol for Arachis species.Nevertheless,evidence indicates that successful genetic transformation of Arachis plants was first reported approximately 30 years ago.Thus,a notable discrepancy exists between early reports of transformation success and the ongoing challenges in stably transferring candidate genes into Arachis genotypes.This review summarizes existing methods for regeneration and genetic transformation in Arachis,aiming to advance understanding of transgenic technologies applicable to this genus.

文摘Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transformation has been widely adopted for plant genetic engineering and the study of gene function(Krenek et al.,2015).This method is prevalent in the genetic transformation of herbaceous plants,with notable applications in species such as Arabidopsis(Yin et al.,2024),soybean(Zhang et al.,2024),rice(Zhang et al.,2020),and Chinese cabbage(Li et al.,2021).However,its application in fruit trees is limited.This is primarily due to their long growth cycles and lack of rapid,efficient,and stable transgenic systems,which severely hinders foundational research involving plant genetic transformation(Mei et al.,2024).Furthermore,for subtropical fruit trees,the presence of recalcitrant seeds adds an extra layer of difficulty to genetic transformation(Umarani et al.,2015),as most methods rely on seed germination as a basis for transformation.
文摘With the acceleration of the global digital wave,enterprise procurement management is facing multiple challenges such as cost pressure,supply chain collaboration demand,and insufficient information ability.Based on dynamic capability theory,resource-based view,and value chain theory,this paper constructs a four-level research framework of“driving factors-transformation paths-strategic actions-performance evaluation”.Firstly,through literature analysis and case review,it summarizes the internal and external driving factors such as external market competition pressure,supply chain coordination demand,policy and regulatory environment,as well as enterprise information foundation,organizational culture,and talent reserve,and analyzes their mechanism of action on procurement digital transformation.Secondly,the procurement digital transformation path is divided into two types:gradual upgrading and leap-forward reconstruction,and the strategic and tactical level strategies,such as top-level design,data governance,process remodeling,supplier collaboration platform construction,and intelligent decision support,are proposed.Thirdly,the implementation guarantee mechanism was designed from the four aspects of organization management,technology platform,talent culture,and risk control.Finally,the performance evaluation index system covering cost,cycle,quality,risk,and digital maturity was constructed,and the evaluation method and continuous improvement mechanism based on balanced scorecard and ROI/TCO analysis were proposed.The results show that the systematic strategy design and multi-dimensional guarantee can effectively improve the procurement efficiency of enterprises,reduce operating costs,enhance supply chain resilience,and provide theoretical and practical guidance for enterprises to achieve sustainable competitive advantage.
文摘BACKGROUND Acinar cystic transformation(ACT)of the pancreas is a rare non-neoplastic transformation of the pancreas.Adult women are the majority of patients with ACT,but few cases have been reported in pediatric patients.Given that there are currently no guidelines for the treatment of ACT,current treatment is based primarily on expert opinions and clinical experiences.Here,we report the case of the youngest child with ACT to date.Additionally,a literature review on pediatric ACT cases was performed to summarize previous clinical experience and treatment methods.CASE SUMMARY A 1-year-old Chinese girl presented with progressive abdominal distension for 6 months.A detailed consultation revealed an uneventful history.The patient showed no signs of fever or abdominal pain and had a good appetite and normal feces.A mass of about 20 cm×10 cm×10 cm in size was detected in the abdomen.Both abdominal ultrasound and computed tomography examination revealed a multilocular cystic mass about 21.7 cm×16.8 cm×8.9 cm in size.At first,due to the large size and the possible retroperitoneal origin of the cyst,a total resection of the lesion was not possible.A single-port laparoscopic lymphangioma puncture and Pingyangmycin injection were performed in March 2023.One month after surgery,the abdominal cyst rapidly enlarged to its pre-operative size.After consulting with the experts in the angiology department and interventional department,sclerotherapy combined with oral sirolimus was performed in May 2023.After confirming that the tumor was not sensitive to sclerotherapy combined with oral sirolimus,our surgical team performed tumor reduction in August 2023.This surgery confirmed that the polycystic mass originated from the head of the pancreas,and pathological and immunohistochemical findings diagnosed pancreatic ACT.The patient showed no signs of cyst lesions after 6 months of follow-up and remains in good health up to the time of this report.CONCLUSION ACT is a rare non-neoplastic transformation of the pancreas,more rarely seen in children.Manifestation and examinations show no specificity for diagnosis,and final diagnosis is mainly based on histological findings.To reach a specific diagnosis and rule out malignancy is a priority in clinical practice,and repeated biopsy or radical surgery should be considered before malignancy is ruled out.However,once a diagnosis of ACT is made,a conser-vative treatment with consecutive follow-up is recommended until symptoms present or obvious enlargement occurs because ACT is considered a slow-growing and benign tumor.

文摘The microstructure evolution and bainitic transformation of an Fe-0.19C-4.03Mn-1.48Si steel subjected to near-M_(s)austempering treatment were systematically investigated by combining dilatometer,X-ray diffraction,and electron microscopy.Three additional austempering treatments with isothermal temperatures above M_(s)were used as benchmarks.Results show that the incubation period for the bainitic transformation occurs when the medium Mn steel is treated with the austempering temperature above M_(s).However,when subjected to near-M_(s)isothermal treatment,the medium Mn steel does not show an incubation period and has the fastest bainitic transformation rate.Moreover,the largest volume fraction of bainite with a value of 74.7%is obtained on the condition of near-M_(s)austempering treatment after cooling to room temperature.Dilatometer and microstructure evolution analysis indicates that the elimination of the incubation period and the fastest rate of bainitic transformation are related to the preformed martensite.The advent of preformed martensite allows the specimen to generate more bainite in a limited time.Considering bainitic ferrite nucleation at austenite grain boundaries and through autocatalysis at ferrite/austenite interfaces,a model is established to understand the kinetics of bainite formation and it can describe the nucleation rate of bainitic transformation well when compared to the experimental results.

文摘Occupational structural transformation is a common pattern during the steady growth of GDP per capita in major economies worldwide.In recent years,there has been a decline in the employment share of goods occupation and an increase in service occupation within the Chinese manufacturing industry,presenting a trend of occupational structural transformation and rapid development of service-oriented manufacturing.It is an important driving force and typical performance of the high-end,intelligent,and green development of the manufacturing industry.As a strategic general technology which leads the new round of technological revolution and industrial transformation,artificial intelligence(AI)has become a new fundamental force to accelerate the occupational structural transformation and service-oriented manufacturing development in China.Thus,this paper establishes a dynamic general equilibrium model with AI technology and occupational heterogeneity,showing the endogenous mechanism of occupational structural transformation.We find that when AI technology is biased towards goods occupation,and the elasticity of substitution between goods occupation and service occupation is less than 1,then AI will drive the transformation of occupational structure from goods to service within the manufacturing sector,increase the proportion of service-oriented manufacturing,improve labor productivity of manufacturing relative to service and stabilize the real output share of manufacturing.Promoting deeper integration of different occupations,intensifying R&D in AI technology and reducing labor mobility barriers between occupations can effectively accelerate the occupational structural transformation and industrial structural upgrading.We use theoretical analysis and numerical simulation method to show the theoretical mechanism by which AI affects occupational structural transformation and industrial structural transformation from a macroeconomic perspective,and put forward policy implications on how to promote the service-oriented manufacturing development and accelerate the construction of modern industrial system through AI innovation.

文摘Using a quantum computer to simulate fermionic systems requires fermion-to-qubit transformations.Usually,lower Pauli weight of transformations means shallower quantum circuits.Therefore,most existing transformations aim for lower Pauli weight.However,in some cases,the circuit depth depends not only on the Pauli weight but also on the coefficients of the Hamiltonian terms.In order to characterize the circuit depth of these algorithms,we propose a new metric called weighted Pauli weight,which depends on Pauli weight and coefficients of Hamiltonian terms.To achieve smaller weighted Pauli weight,we introduce a novel transformation,Huffman-code-based ternary tree(HTT)transformation,which is built upon the classical Huffman code and tailored to different Hamiltonians.We tested various molecular Hamiltonians and the results show that the weighted Pauli weight of the HTT transformation is smaller than that of commonly used mappings.At the same time,the HTT transformation also maintains a relatively small Pauli weight.The mapping we designed reduces the circuit depth of certain Hamiltonian simulation algorithms,facilitating faster simulation of fermionic systems.

文摘High entropy alloys(HEAs)have attracted much attention for their excellent mechanical properties stem-ming from diverse deformation mechanisms.Particularly,face-centered cubic(FCC)to body-centered cu-bic(BCC)martensitic transformation is crucial for enhancing the strength and plasticity of HEAs,partic-ularly at cryogenic temperatures.However,the fundamental atomic mechanism underlying martensitic transformation remains elusive,and the impact of martensitic transformation on the mechanical prop-erties of HEAs at room temperature is unknown.Here,we report in situ atomic-scale observation of a reversible martensitic transformation from FCC to body-centered tetragonal(BCT)and ultimately back to FCC in the nanostructured CrMnFeCoNi HEA at room temperature under deformation.This martensitic transformation is completed by the synergistic action of 90°partial dislocations slip on(111)FCC plane and atom shuffling,involving the periodic arrangement and slip of two 90°half Shockley partial disloca-tions a/12[112](111)and one 90°Shockley partial dislocation-a/6[112](111)on three successive(111)FCC atomic planes.Additionally,the reversible phase transformation induced by high stress dissipates strain energies and hinders crack propagation,thereby enhancing the fracture toughness of HEAs.Our findings contribute to a deeper comprehension of the martensitic transformation mechanisms in HEAs,offering valuable insights for improving their mechanical properties.

文摘This study examined the relationship between transformational leadership and employee bootleg innovation through the mediating role of creative self-efficacy and the moderating role of leader-member exchange(LMX).Data were collected from 279 employees and 56 matched supervisors within a large Chinese digital transformation group.A moderated mediation model analysis found that transformational leadership predicts higher employee bootleg innovation.Creative self-efficacy mediated the positive relationship between transformational leadership and employee bootleg.Additionally,leader-member exchange significantly moderated the relationship between transformational leadership and creative self-efficacy,for a further enhancement of bootleg innovation.Thesefindings underscore the importance of transformative leadership in fostering digital employee innovation.This study provides further evidence of the relevance of self-determination theory in explaining the leadership and employee innovation,relationship within the context of digital transformation.By implication,creative self-efficacy and leader-member exchange are modifiable factors by digital transformation entities seeking a competitive advantage.

文摘Heat treatment of Ti-50.9%Ni （mole fraction） alloy was studied by differential scanning calorimetry, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopey and energy dispersive X-ray analysis to investigate the influence of cooling rate on transformation behavior and microstructures of NiTi shape memory alloy. The experimental results show that three-stage phase transformation can be induced at a very low cooling rate such as cooling in furnace. The cooling rate also has a great influence on the phase transformation temperatures. Both martensitic start transformation temperature （Ms） and martensitic finish transformation temperature （Mf） decrease with the decrease of the cooling rate, and decreasing the cooling rate contributes to enhancing the M→A austenite transformation temperature. The phase transformation hysteresis （Af-Mf） increases with the decrease of the cooling rate. Heat treatment is unable to eliminate the textures formed in hot working of NiTi sample, but can weaken the intensity of them. The cooling rate has little influence on the grain size.
