文摘Echinococcus is a zoonotic parasite and 1 of 17 neglected tropical diseases with a worldwide distribution.The World Health Organization(WHO)targeted for control or elimination by 2050[1,2].Two main species of Echinococcus infect humans:Echinococcus granulosus,causing cystic echinococcosis(CE),and Echinococcus multilocularis(EM),causing alveolar echinococcosis(AE)[3].AE is much rarer but far more severe than CE and ranks as one of the most dangerous helminthic zoonoses in the world[4,5].Humans are rare aberrant intermediate hosts and typically become infected through the ingestion of EM eggs shed in the feces of definitive hosts[6].After an incubation period of many years,humans may develop AE[7].While slow-growing,AE is a devastating clinical condition characterized by silent progression and infiltrative proliferation of the parasite,mimicking a malignancy[7].Without appropriate treatment,AE has a death rate of more than 90%within 10 years of diagnosis[5].For this reason,AE must be considered in the differential diagnosis of patients presenting with a hepatic mass or malignancy.

文摘The squeezing deformation of surrounding rock is an important factor restricting the safe construction and long-term operation of tunnels when a tunnel passes through soft strata with high ground stress.Under such soft rock geological conditions,the large deformation of the surrounding rock can easily lead to the failure of supporting structures,including shotcrete cracks,spalling,and steel arch distortion.To improve the lining support performance during the large deformation of squeezed surrounding rock,this work selects aluminum foam with densities of 0.25 g/cm3,0.42 g/cm3 and 0.61 g/cm3 as the buffer layer material and carries out uniaxial confined compression tests.Through the evaluation and analysis of energy absorption and the comparison of the yield pressure of aluminum foam with those of other cushioning materials and yield pressure support systems,the strength,deformation and energy absorption of aluminum foam with a density of 0.25 g/cm3 meet the yield pressure performance requirements.The numerical model of the buffer layer yielding support system is then established via the finite element analysis software ABAQUS,and the influence of the buffer layer setting on the lining support is analyzed.Compared with the conventional support scheme,the addition of an aluminum foam buffer layer can reduce the stress and deformation of the primary support and secondary lining.The maximum and minimum principal stresses of the primary support are reduced by 13%and 15%,respectively.The maximum and minimum principal stresses of the secondary lining are reduced by 15%and 12%,respectively,and the displacement deformation of the secondary lining position is reduced by 15%.In summary,the application of aluminum foam buffer layer can reduce the stress and deformation of the primary support and secondary lining,improve the stress safety of the support and reduce the deformation of the support.

文摘Accurate crown control is paramount for ensuring the quality of hot-rolled strip products.Given the multitude of influencing parameters and the intricate coupling and genetic relationships among them,the conventional crown control method is no longer sufficient to meet the precision requirements of schedule-free rolling.To address this limitation,an optimization framework for hot-rolled strip crown control was developed based on model-driven digital twin(MDDT).This framework enhances the strip crown control precision by facilitating collaborative operations among physical entities,virtual models,and functional application layers.In virtual modeling,a data-driven approach that integrates the extreme gradient boosting and the improved Harris hawk optimization algorithm was firstly proposed to fit the relationship between key process parameters and strip crown,and a global-local collaborative training strategy was proposed to enhance the model adaptability to diverse working conditions.Subsequently,the influence of crucial process factors on the virtual model was examined through model responses.Furthermore,a novel optimization mode for crown control based on MDDT was established by aligning and reconstructing both the physical and virtual models,thereby enhancing the crown control precision.Finally,data trials were conducted to validate the effectiveness of the proposed framework.The results indicated that the proposed method exhibited satisfactory performance and could be effectively utilized to improve the crown control precision.

文摘A constitutive model considering the size effect was established to investigate the behavior of CoCrNi medium entropy alloy ultrathin strip in different deformation stages during the uniaxial quasi-static tensile test.Results show that when the t/d value is lower than 10.62,the CoCrNi alloy ultrathin strip shows an obvious size-dependent property in the elastic deformation stage.With the decrease in t/d value,the volume fraction of the surface layer grains is increased,leading to the linear decrease in flow stress.In the plastic deformation stage,the material stiffness is correlated with the t/d value.Specifically,as the t/d value increases,the work-hardening capacity of the material is enhanced.When the t/d value increases to 10,the work-hardening capacity reaches a maximum state;when the t/d value is beyond 10,the work-hardening capacity weakens.

文摘The interfacial structure and its effect on the resistivity of cross-layered silver-copper composite strip fabricated by hot-roll bonding and diffusion welding processes with the same specification were studied.Through optical and scanning electron microscope analysis of metallographic structure of the diffusion region of interface,it is found that the thickness of the interfacial diffusion layer is related to the composite conditions.Under the condition of sufficient diffusion,the interface of silver-copper composite strip produced by diffusion welding process has a wider interfacial transition region and fine grain area.Due to the higher diffusion rate of copper atoms than that of silver atoms,copper atoms tend to aggregate at the silver boundaries to form a copper-rich second solid solution,which has a fixing and expanding effect during annealing.The fine grain area at the interface of the composite strip produced by diffusion welding process still exists after annealing treatment and reaches a width of 55-97μm.While the fine grain region at the interface of hot-rolled composite strips is mainly formed by crushing the surface under rolling pressure with less diffusion effect,it almost disappears after annealing.The resistivity of silver-copper composite strip increases with the extension of the interfacial diffusion region.The resistivity of hot-roll bonding composite strip is increased by about 4%higher than that of the theoretical calculation,while the resistivity of diffusion welding composite strip is increased by 6%.

文摘The Casimir pressure plays an important role in the adhesion stability of nanofilms at submicro scales.In this work,the Casimir pressure of peptide films deposited on a layered substrate is investigated.Three types of semi-infinite substrates,i.e.,silica,silicon and gold,are considered.The buffer layer between the peptide film and substrate consists of silicon or silica.The switching sign of the Casimir pressure can be controlled in a region ranging from about 130 nm to 1000 nm,depending on the thickness of the buffer layer and the substrate.The results suggest that the critical thickness of peptide films for Casimir equilibrium increases(or decreases)by increasing the thickness of the silicon(or silica)buffer film.The influences of wetting and electrolyte screening on the Casimir pressure are also investigated.Our finding provides a theoretical guide for the adhesion stability of peptide films in organic electronics.
文摘Stripping injection overcomes the limitations of Liouville's theorem and is widely used for beam injection and accumulation in high-intensity synchrotrons.The interaction between the stripping foil and beam is crucial in the study of stripping injection,particularly in low-energy stripping injection synchrotrons,such as the XiPAF synchrotron.The foil thickness is the main parameter that affects the properties of the beam after injection.The thin stripping foil is reinforced with collodion during its installation.However,the collodion on the foil surface makes it difficult to determine its equivalent thickness,because the mechanical measurements are not sufficiently reliable or convenient for continuously determining foil thickness.We propose an online stripping foil thickness measurement method based on the ionization energy loss effect,which is suitable for any foil thickness and does not require additional equipment.Experimental studies were conducted using the XiPAF synchrotron.The limitation of this method was examined,and the results were verified by comparing the experimentally obtained beam current accumulation curves with the simulation results.This confirms the accuracy and reliability of the proposed method for measuring the stripping foil thickness.

文摘Stochastic optical reconstruction microscopy(STORM),as a typical technique of single-molecule localization microscopy(SMLM),has overcome the diffraction limit by randomly switching fluorophores between fluorescent and dark states,allowing for the precise localization of isolated emission patterns and the super-resolution reconstruction from millions of localized positions of single fluorophores.A critical factor influencing localization precision is the photo-switching behavior of fluorophores,which is affected by the imaging buffer.The imaging buffer typically comprises oxygen scavengers,photo-switching reagents,and refractive index regulators.Oxygen scavengers help prevent photobleaching,photo-switching reagents assist in facilitating the conversion of fluorophores,and refractive index regulators are used to adjust the refractive index of the solution.The synergistic interaction of these components promotes stable blinking of fluorophores,reduces irreversible photobleaching,and thereby ensures high-quality super-resolution imaging.This review provides a comprehensive overview of the essential compositions and functionalities of imaging buffers used in STORM,serving as a valuable resource for researchers seeking to select appropriate imaging buffers for their experiments.

文摘High ammonia-nitrogen digestate has become a key bottleneck limiting the anaerobic digestion of organic solid waste.Vacuum ammonia stripping can simultaneously remove and recover ammonia nitrogen,which has attracted a lot of attention in recent years.To investigate the parameter effects on the efficiency and mass transfer,five combination conditions(53℃ 15 kPa,60°C 20 kPa,65°C 25 kPa,72°C 35 kPa,and 81°C 50 kPa)were conducted for ammonia stripping of sludge digestate.The results showed that 80%of ammonia nitrogen was stripped in 45 min for all experimental groups,but the ammonia transfer coefficient varied under different conditions,which increased with the rising of boiling point temperature,and reached the maximum value(39.0 mm/hr)at 81°C 50 kPa.The ammonia nitrogen removal efficiency was more than 80%for 30 min vacuum stripping after adjusting the initial pH to above 9.5,and adjustment of the initial alkalinity also affects the pH value of liquid digestate.It was found that pH and alkalinity are the key factors influencing the ammonia nitrogen dissociation and removal efficiency,while temperature and vacuum mainly affect the ammonia nitrogen mass transfer and removal velocity.In terms of the mechanism of vacuum ammonia stripping,it underwent alkalinity destruction,pH enhancement,ammonia nitrogen dissociation,and free ammonia removal.In this study,two-stage experiments of alkalinity destruction and ammonia removal were also carried out,which showed that the two-stage configuration was beneficial for ammonia removal.It provides a theoretical basis and practical technology for the vacuum ammonia stripping from liquid digestate of organic solid waste.

文摘Maglev trains experience significant aerodynamic effects when passing through tunnels.A moving model test was conducted to explore the practical effects of speed reduction and entrance buffer structures on mitigating tunnel/maglev aerodynamic effects.It is found that both have an overall positive effect on mitigating the aerodynamic environment inside and outside the tunnel.Trains operating at 200 km/h show a 49.8%decrease in peak-to-peak pressure and a 50.7%decrease in transient pressure instability on inner walls compared to those at 280 km/h.Lower speeds resulted in a 65.6%decrease in amplitude and a 24.5%decrease in decay rate,both of which are parameters for exponential fittings of pressure peaks that decay naturally after the train leaves.The buffer structures result in a reduction of up to 25.7%in the maximum positive pressure and a 29.0%decrease in transient pressure instability.Additionally,a reduction in amplitude of up to 21.2%and a 32.2%increase in decay rate were observed with the use of buffer structures.Nevertheless,it is difficult to conclude direct correlations between the maximum pressure,peak-to-peak values,etc.,and the speeds or buffer structures due to the complex wave propagation in tunnels.However,speed reduction and buffer structures are proven to be effective in reducing the micro-pressure wave levels with a simpler monotonic relationship.

文摘[Objectives]To identify the optimal combination of herbicide concentrations appropriate for soil closed weeding in the soybean and corn intercropping system in Zhongwei City.[Methods]Two herbicides,96%(S)-metolachlor and 75%thifensulfuron methyl,were selected for this experiment.A no-herbicide treatment served as the control,and five concentration gradients of the herbicides were established.Prior to sowing,the soil underwent a closed weeding treatment.The impacts of various herbicide concentration combinations on growth indicators,weed control effect,and the yields of soybean and corn across various treatments were analyzed.[Results]The tested combinations of herbicide concentrations did not result in significant phytotoxicity to soybean and corn seedlings.Furthermore,as the herbicide concentrations increased in each treatment,treatments D and E demonstrated the most effective weed control effect.Specifically,40 d post application,the plant control effect and fresh weight control effect reached 97.25% and 98.03% for treatment D,and 97.25% and 98.24% for treatment E,respectively.Additionally,the yields of both soybean and corn showed significant increases.[Conclusions]Considering the overall output-input ratio in this region,treatment D,comprising 96%(S)-metolachlor at 1650 mL/hm^(2) and 75% thifensulfuron-methyl at 48 g/hm^(2),can be identified as the herbicide concentration combination that provides the most effective weed control effect in the soybean and corn strip intercropping system.
