文摘Current research on localized raceway defects of angular contact ball bearings(ACBB)mainly focuses on assuming that localized raceway defects are cube-shaped defects characterized using a half-sine displacement excitation function.However,the assumption of a cube-shaped defect cannot accurately reflect the morphological characteristics of a localized raceway defect,and the half-sine displacement excitation function cannot be used to accurately describe the relationship between the geometric positions of rolling element and raceway in the region of localized raceway defects.In this study,a comprehensive dynamic model of an ACBB considering a three-dimensional localized raceway defect is established based on the nonlinear Hertz contact theory in conjunction with the outer raceway control theory using the improved Newton–Raphson iteration method.Three localized raceway defect distribution types,namely symmetric,offset,and deflection distributions,are considered.The established model is verified by comparing the results of the proposed model with those of existing literature.The dynamic characteristics of the ACBB were analyzed by investigating the effects of the geometrical size and distribution types on the time-varying contact angles,contact forces,and diagonal stiffness of the ACBB.The investigation results show that the appearance of localized raceway defect leads to the time-varying curves of contact angles,contact forces and diagonal stiffness havingΛ-and V-shaped mutations in some time intervals;The variation tendencies of theΛ-and V-shaped mutations are significant with the increase in defect radial depth H,defect axial width a and angular distanceθ_b.The increase in defect eccentric distance L is beneficial to the rolling elements disengaging from the defect area and it can weaken the influence of localized raceway defect on the time-varying contact and stiffness characteristics of ACBB.The time-varying contact and stiffness characteristics appear to change significantly when the defect deflection angleα_βincrease toα_γ.The results of this study provide a theoretical basis for the fault diagnosis of localized raceway defects in ACBB.

文摘Rational design of defected carbons adjacent to nitrogen(N)dopants is a fascinating but challenging approach for enhancing the catalytic performance of N-doped carbon.Meanwhile,the combined effect of heteroatom doping and defect engineering can efficiently increase the oxygen reduction reaction(ORR)ability of inactive carbons through charge redistribution.Herein,we report that an enhanced built-in electric field caused by the combined effect of N-doping and carbon defects in the twodimensional(2D)mesoporous N-doped carbon nano flakes(NCNF)is a promising technique for improving ORR performance.As a result,the NCNF exhibits more promising ORR activity than Pt/C and similar performance with reported robust catalysts.Comprehensive experimental and theoretical investigations suggest that topologically defected carbon adjacent to the graphitic valley nitrogen is a real active site,rendering optimal energy for the adsorption of ORR intermediates and lowering the total energy barrier for ORR.Also,NCNF-based Zn-air batteries exhibited an excellent power density and specific capacity of~121.10 mW cm^(-2)and~679.86 mA h g_(Zn)^(-1),respectively.This study not only offers new insights into defected carbons with graphitic valley N for ORR but also proposes novel catalyst design principles and provides a solid grasp of the built-in electric field effect on the ORR performance of defective catalysts.

文摘Aiming at the problems of low detection efficiency and difficult positioning of traditional steel surface defect detection methods,a lightweight steel surface defect detection model based on you only look once version 7(YOLOv7)is proposed.First,a cascading style sheets(CSS)block module is proposed,which uses more lightweight operations to obtain redundant information in the feature map,reduces the amount of computation,and effectively improves the detection speed.Secondly,the improved spatial pyramid pooling with cross stage partial convolutions(SPPCSPC)structure is adopted to ensure that the model can also pay attention to the defect location information while predicting the defect category information,obtain richer defect features.In addition,the convolution operation in the original model is simplified,which significantly reduces the size of the model and helps to improve the detection speed.Finally,using efficient intersection over union(EIOU)loss to focus on high-quality anchors,speed up convergence and improve positioning accuracy.Experiments were carried out on the Northeastern University-defect(NEU-DET)steel surface defect dataset.Compared with the original YOLOv7 model,the number of parameters of this model was reduced by 40%,the frames per second(FPS)reached 112,and the average accuracy reached 79.1%,the detection accuracy and speed have been improved,which can meet the needs of steel surface defect detection.

文摘The advancement of aqueous magnesium ion energy storage devices encounters limitations due to the substantial hydration radius of magnesium ions(Mg^(2+))and their strong electrostatic interaction with the primary material.Consequently,this study successfully developed a MnS/MnO heterostructure through a straightforward hydrothermal and annealing method,marking its initial application in aqueous magnesium ion capacitors(AMICs).The fabricated MnS/MnO heterostructure,characterized by S defects,also generates Mn defects via in-situ initiation of early electrochemical processes.This unique dual ion defects MnS/MnO heterostructure(DID-MnS/MnO)enables the transformation of MnS and MnO,initially not highly active electrochemically for Mg^(2+),into cathode materials exhibiting high electrochemical activity and superior performance.Moreover,DID-MnS/MnO enhances conductivity,improves the kinetics of surface redox reactions,and increases the diffusion rate of Mg^(2+).Furthermore,this study introduces a dual energy storage mechanism for DID-MnS/MnO,which,in conjunction with dual ion defects,offers additional active sites for Mg^(2+)insertion/deinsertion in the host material,mitigating volume expansion and structural degradation during repeated charge-discharge cycles,thereby significantly enhancing cycling reversibility.As anticipated,using a three-electrode system,the developed DID-MnS/MnO demonstrated a discharge specific capacity of 237.9 mAh/g at a current density of 0.1 A/g.Remarkably,the constructed AMIC maintained a capacity retention rate of 94.3%after 10000 cycles at a current density of 1.0 A/g,with a specific capacitance of 165.7 F/g.Hence,DID-MnS/MnO offers insightful perspectives for designing alternative clean energy sources and is expected to contribute significantly to the advancement of the clean energy sector.

文摘Osteogenesis imperfecta(OI)is a group of diseases caused by defects in type I collagen processing which result in skeletal fragility.While these disorders have been regarded as defects in osteoblast function,the role of matrix-embedded osteocytes in OI pathogenesis remains largely unknown.Homozygous human SP7(c.946 C>T,R316C)mutation results in a recessive form of OI characterized by fragility fractures,low bone mineral density and osteocyte dendrite defects.To better understand how the OI-causing R316C mutation affects the function of SP7,we generated Sp7^(R342C)knock-in mice.Consistent with patient phenotypes,Sp7^(R342C/R342C)mice demonstrate increased cortical porosity and reduced cortical bone mineral density.Sp7^(R342C/R342C)mice show osteocyte dendrite defects,increased osteocyte apoptosis,and intracortical bone remodeling with ectopic intracortical osteoclasts and elevated osteocyte Tnfsf11 expression.
文摘Based on inspection data,the authors analyze and summarize the main types and distribution characteristics of tunnel structural defects.These defects are classified into three types:surface defects,internal defects,and defects behind the structure.To address the need for rapid detection of different defect types,the current state of rapid detection technologies and equipment,both domestically and internationally,is systematically reviewed.The research reveals that surface defect detection technologies and equipment have developed rapidly in recent years.Notably,the integration of machine vision and laser scanning technologies have significantly improved detection efficiency and accuracy,achieving crack detection precision of up to 0.1 mm.However,the non-contact rapid detection of internal and behind-the-structure defects remains constrained by hardware limitations,with traditional detection remaining dominant.Nevertheless,phased array radar,ultrasonic,and acoustic vibration detection technologies have become research hotspots in recent years,offering promising directions for detecting these challenging defect types.Additionally,the application of multisensor fusion technology in rapid detection equipment has further enhanced detection capabilities.Devices such as cameras,3D laser scanners,infrared thermal imagers,and radar demonstrate significant advantages in rapid detection.Future research in tunnel inspection should prioritize breakthroughs in rapid detection technologies for internal and behind-the-structure defects.Efforts should also focus on developing multifunctional integrated detection vehicles that can simultaneously inspect both surface and internal structures.Furthermore,progress in fully automated,intelligent systems with precise defect identification and real-time reporting will be essential to significantly improve the efficiency and accuracy of tunnel inspection.

文摘Achieving high-quality perovskite films without surface defects is regarded as a crucial target for the development of durable high-performance perovskite solar cells.Additive engineering is commonly employed to simultaneously control the growth of perovskite crystals and passivate defects.Here,4-(trifluoromethyl)benzoic anhydride(4-TBA)composed of benzene rings functionalized with carbonyl and trifluoromethyl groups was used as an example additive to study the characteristics of additives used for producing high-quality perovskites and controlling their surface properties.The interaction between4-TBA and perovskite precursor materials was investigated using density functional theory(DFT)simulations.The electron-rich carbonyl group efficiently passivated the under-coordinated lead-ion defects.Additionally,hydrogen bonding between trifluoromethyl and organic cations prevents the generation of cation vacancies.Because of its intrinsic hydrophobicity,the trifluoromethyl group simultaneously improves the moisture and heat stability of the film.4-TBA serves as a universal modifier for various perovskite compositions.The power conversion efficiency(PCE)of inverted perovskite solar cells(PSCs)based on methylammonium(MA)with 4-TBA was improved from 16.15%to 19.28%.Similarly,the PCE of inverted PSCs based on a cesium formamidinium MA(CsFAMA)perovskite film increased from20.72%to 23.58%,upon addition of 4-TBA.Furthermore,the moisture and thermal stability of 4-TBAtreated films and devices was significantly enhanced,along with prolonged device performance.Our work provides guidance on selecting the structure and functional groups that are essential for surface defect passivation and the production of high-quality perovskites.

文摘Selective catalytic reduction of NO_(x) with CO(CO-SCR)is a process that purifies both NO and CO pollutants through a catalytic reaction.Specifically,the cleavage of NO on the catalyst surface is crucial for promoting the reaction.During the reaction,the presence of oxygen vacancies can extract oxygen from NO,thereby facilitating the cleavage of NO on the catalyst surface.Thus,the formation of oxygen vacancies is key to accelerating the CO-SCR reaction,with different types of oxygen vacancies being more conducive to their generation.In this study,Rh/CeCuO_(x) catalysts were synthesized using the co-crystallization and impregnation methods,and asymmetric oxygen vacancies were induced through hydrogen thermal treatment.This structuralmodification was aimed at regulating the behavior of NO on the catalyst surface.The Rh/Ce0.95Cu0.05O_(x)-H_(2) catalyst exhibited the best performance in CO-SCR,achieving above 90%NO conversion at 162℃.Various characterization techniques showed that the H_(2) treatment effectively reduced some of the CuO and Rh_(2)O_(3),creating asymmetric oxygen vacancies that accelerated the cleavage of NO on the catalyst surface,rather than forming difficult-to-decompose nitrates.This study offers a novel approach to constructing oxygen vacancies in new CO-SCR catalysts.

文摘Phenanthrene(Phe)is one of the common polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in the environment,and recent studies show that it can cause cardiac developmental toxicity and immunotoxicity.However,it is still unknown whether it can affect the hematopoietic development in aquatic organisms.To address this question,zebrafish(Danio rerio)were chronically exposed to Phe at different concentrations.We found that Phe caused structural damage to the renal tubules in the kidney,induced malformed erythrocytes in peripheral blood,and decreased the proportion of myeloid cells in adult zebrafish,suggesting possible negative impacts that Phe posed to hematopoietic development.Then,using in situ hybridization technology,we found that Phe decreased the expression of primitive hematopoietic marker genes,specifically gata1 and pu.1,accompanied by an obstruction of primitive erythrocyte circulation.Furthermore,Phe impaired definitive hematopoiesis,increased aberrations of the transient hematopoietic site(PBI),and reduced the generation of hematopoietic stem cells,ultimately influencing the number of erythrocytes and myeloid cells.The findings suggested that Phe could induce hematopoietic toxicity in zebrafish embryos and pose unknown ecological risks.

文摘To solve the problem of low detection accuracy for complex weld defects,the paper proposes a weld defects detection method based on improved YOLOv5s.To enhance the ability to focus on key information in feature maps,the scSE attention mechanism is intro-duced into the backbone network of YOLOv5s.A Fusion-Block module and additional layers are added to the neck network of YOLOv5s to improve the effect of feature fusion,which is to meet the needs of complex object detection.To reduce the computation-al complexity of the model,the C3Ghost module is used to replace the CSP2_1 module in the neck network of YOLOv5s.The scSE-ASFF module is constructed and inserted between the neck network and the prediction end,which is to realize the fusion of features between the different layers.To address the issue of imbalanced sample quality in the dataset and improve the regression speed and accuracy of the loss function,the CIoU loss function in the YOLOv5s model is replaced with the Focal-EIoU loss function.Finally,ex-periments are conducted based on the collected weld defect dataset to verify the feasibility of the improved YOLOv5s for weld defects detection.The experimental results show that the precision and mAP of the improved YOLOv5s in detecting complex weld defects are as high as 83.4%and 76.1%,respectively,which are 2.5%and 7.6%higher than the traditional YOLOv5s model.The proposed weld defects detection method based on the improved YOLOv5s in this paper can effectively solve the problem of low weld defects detection accuracy.

文摘A comprehensive understanding of the relevance between molecular structure and passivation ability to screen efficient modifiers is essential for enhancing the performance of perovskite solar cells(PSCs).Here,three similarπ-πstacking molecules namely benzophenone(BPN),diphenyl sulfone(DPS),and diphenyl sulfoxide(DPSO)are used as back-interface modifiers in carbon-based CsPbBr_(3)PSCs.After investigation,the results demonstrate the positive effect of the p-πconjugation characteristic inπ-πstacking molecules on maximizing their passivation ability.The p-πco njugation of DPSO enables a higher coordinative activity of oxygen atom in its S=O group than that in 0=S=O group of DPS and C=O group of BPN,which gives a superior passivation effect of DPSO on defects of perovskite films.The modification of DPSO also significantly improves the p-type behavior of perovskite films and the back-interfacial energetics matching,inducing an increase of hole extraction and a decrease of energy loss.Finally,the unencapsulated carbon-based CsPbBr_(3)PSCs with DPSO achieve a maximum power conversion efficiency of 10.60%and outstanding long-term stability in high-temperature,high-humidity(85℃,85%relative humidity)air environment.This work provides insights into the influence of the structure ofπ-πstacking molecules on their ability to improve the perovskite films quality and therefore the PSCs performance.
