Investigating the evolution of the mechanical properties of the reservoir and caprock under in-situ high-temperature and confine-ment conditions is of considerable importance. Compared to conventional mechanical experiments on rock samples after high-temperat-ure treatment, in-situ high-temperature experiments can more accurately characterize the behavior of rocks in practical engineering,thereby providing a more realistic reflection of their mechanical properties. In this study, an in-situ high-temperature triaxial compressiontesting machine is developed to conduct in-situ compression tests on sandstone at different temperatures(25, 200, 400, 500, and 650℃)and confining pressures(0, 10, and 20 MPa). Based on the experimental results, the temperature-dependent changes in compressivestrength, peak strain, elastic modulus, Poisson's ratio, cohesion, and internal friction angle are thoroughly analyzed and discussed. Resultsindicate that the mass of sandstone gradually decreases as the temperature increases. The thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity ofsandstone exhibit a linear relationship with temperature. Peak stress decreases as the temperature rises, while it increases with higher con-fining pressures. Notably, the influence of confining pressure on peak stress diminishes at higher temperatures. Additionally, as the tem-perature rises, the Poisson's ratio of sandstone decreases. The internal friction angle also decreases with increasing temperature, with 400℃ acting as the threshold temperature. Interestingly, under uniaxial conditions, the damage stress of sandstone is less affected by tem-perature. However, when the confining pressure is 10 or 20 MPa, the damage stress decreases as the temperature increases. This study en-hances our understanding of the influence of in-situ high-temperature and confinement conditions on the mechanical properties of sand-stone strata. The study also provides valuable references and experimental data that support the development of low-to medium-maturityoil shale resources.展开更多

The microstructure contained columnar grains with (111) texture in the vertical plane (90° sample), while a large equiaxed grain with (100) texture was produced in the horizontal plane (0° sample). As for 45° sample, a large number of equiaxed grains and a few columnar grains with (111) texture can be observed. The sample produced at a 0° orientation demonstrates the highest tensile strength, whereas the 90° sample exhibits the greatest elongation. Conversely, the 45° sample displays the least favorable overall performance. As the tests temperature increased from room temperature to 600℃, the anisotropy rate of ultimate tensile strength, yield strength and ductility between 0° and 45° samples, decreased from 8.98 to 6.96%, 2.36 to 1.28%, 19.93 to 12.23%, as well as between 0° and 90° samples decreased from 4.87 to 4.03%, 11.88 to 7.21% and 14.11 to 6.89%, respectively, because of the recovery of oriented columnar grains.展开更多

文摘In recent years,the research on superconductivity in one-dimensional(1D)materials has been attracting increasing attention due to its potential applications in low-dimensional nanodevices.However,the critical temperature(T_(c))of 1D superconductors is low.In this work,we theoretically investigate the possible high T_(c) superconductivity of(5,5)carbon nanotube(CNT).The pristine(5,5)CNT is a Dirac semimetal and can be modulated into a semiconductor by full hydrogenation.Interestingly,by further hole doping,it can be regulated into a metallic state with the sp^(3)-hybridized σ electrons metalized,and a giant Kohn anomaly appears in the optical phonons.The two factors together enhance the electron–phonon coupling,and lead to high-T_(c) superconductivity.When the hole doping concentration of hydrogenated-(5,5)CNT is 2.5 hole/cell,the calculated T_(c) is 82.3 K,exceeding the boiling point of liquid nitrogen.Therefore,the predicted hole-doped hydrogenated-(5,5)CNT provides a new platform for 1D high-T_(c) superconductivity and may have potential applications in 1D nanodevices.

文摘Spikelet filling characteristics in early-season rice in southern China may be distinctive due to its exposure to high temperatures during the ripening period.However,limited information is currently available on these characteristics.This study aimed to characterize spikelet filling in early-season rice and identify the key factors contributing to its improvement.Field experiments were conducted over two years(2021 and 2022)to mainly investigate the proportions of fully-filled,partially-filled,and empty spikelets,along with the biomass-fertilized spikelet ratio and harvest index,in 11 early-season rice varieties.The results revealed significant varietal variation in spikelet filling,with the proportion of fully-filled spikelets ranging from 60.6%to 81.1%in 2021 and from 66.3%to 79.2%in 2022.Among the 11 varieties,Liangyou 42,Lingliangyou 942,and Liangyou 287 exhibited relatively superior performance in spikelet filling.Linear regression revealed that,although a significant negative relationship existed between the proportion of fully-filled spikelets and both partially-filled and empty spikelets,the relationship with partially-filled spikelets was stronger.Additionally,the proportion of fully-filled spikelets showed a significant positive relationship with the harvest index but not with the biomass-fertilized spikelet ratio.These findings indicate that increasing the harvest index and reducing the occurrence of partially-filled grains are essential strategies for improving spikelet filling in early-season rice.

文摘Thermal-mechanical damage and deformation at the interface between shotcrete linings and the surrounding rock of tunnels under high-temperature and variable-temperature conditions are critical to the safe construction and operation of tunnel engineering.This study investigated the thermo-mechanical damage behavior of the composite interface between alkali-resistant glass fiber-reinforced concrete(ARGFRC)and granite,focusing on a plateau railway tunnel.Laboratory triaxial tests,laser scanning,XRD analysis,numerical simulations,and theoretical analyses were employed to investigate how different initial curing temperatures and joint roughness coefficient(JRC)influence interfacial damage behavior.The results indicate that an increase in interface roughness exacerbates the structural damage at the interface.At a JRC of 19.9 and a temperature of 70℃,crack initiation in granite was notably restrained when the confining pressure rose from 7 MPa to 10 MPa.Roughness-induced stress distribution at the interface was notably altered,although this effect became less pronounced under high confining pressure conditions.Additionally,during high-temperature curing,thermal stress concentration at the tips of micro-convex protrusions on the granite surface induced microcracks in the adjacent ARGFRC matrix,followed by deformation.These findings provide practical guidelines for designing concrete support systems to ensure tunnel structural safety in high-altitude regions with harsh thermal environments.

文摘The effect of real-time high temperature and thermal treatment on the mechanical characteristics and crack evolution of granite with different grain sizes(i.e.,0.5 mm,0.7 mm and 1.0 mm)is investigated by numerical simulation employing a grain-based model,and the impact of initial cracks on thermal-induced strengthening is also examined by integrating random cracks within the model before tests.The results revealed that thermal stress,induced by the mismatch in thermal expansion coefficient between various minerals,is the primary distinction between rock specimens in real-time high temperature and thermal treatment.With increasing temperature,the thermal stress gradually accumulates in quartz minerals under real-time high temperature but releases after thermal treatment.The high local contact force significantly affects the peak stress and crack evolution.Uniaxial compression simulation results demonstrate that progressive accumulation of thermal stress induces degradation in macroscopic peak strength and increase of microcrack density.The grain size controls the ratio of intergranular contacts to intragranular contacts,and leads to an increase in strong contact number in the intragrain and a decrease in strong contact number in the intergrain.The strengthening of uniaxial compression strength in the experiment can be well simulated by controlling the number of pre-existing initial cracks in the numerical model.Our conclusions are beneficial to a better understanding of the underlying mechanisms of thermal damage and thermal strengthening of granite for deep geological engineering.

文摘High temperature stress (HT) significantly reduces maize yield by impairing starch accumulation in kernels.However,the mechanism by which HT affects starch synthesis remains controversial-whether through reduced assimilate supply or direct inhibition on kernel metabolism.To clarify these mechanisms,a heat-sensitive maize hybrid,Xianyu 335 (XY),was exposed to 30℃/20℃ (maximum/minimum temperature,control) and 40℃/30℃ for seven consecutive days during the seed setting stage.Synchronous pollination (SP),apical pollination (AP),and shading treatments were applied to manipulate the inherent source–sink ratio in maize plants.Results showed that apical kernel weight decreased by 11.9%under 40℃ in the SP treatment.The ^(13)C content,starch accumulation,and cell-wall invertase (CWIN) activity also declined by 15.9,36.7,and 16.4%,respectively,under HT.In the shading treatment,40℃/30℃ caused even greater reductions in^(13)C content,starch accumulation,and CWIN activity due to diminished assimilate supply.Conversely,in the AP treatment,starch content and CWIN activity increased by 22.0 and 18.5%,respectively,under 40℃/30℃,resulting in kernel weight and ^(13)C content similar to those in SP and shading treatments regardless of temperature.Consistent with apical kernels under AP,HT did not negatively affect middle kernels in either SP or shading treatments,as kernel weight and starch content remained unchanged under HT.Although all kernels were exposed to the same HT or control environment,their responses varied a lot.The impaired starch synthesis in apical kernels under HT was rescued by increasing carbon supply via AP treatment.The contrasting performance among middle kernels,apical kernels under AP,and apical kernels under SP or shading indicates that reduced carbon supply is a critical factor underlying inhibited starch accumulation.Our findings provide a theoretical basis for further understanding kernel abortion under HT.

文摘Rechargeable Zn/Sn-air batteries have received considerable attention as promising energy storage devices.However,the electrochemical performance of these batteries is significantly constrained by the sluggish electrocatalytic reaction kinetics at the cathode.The integration of light energy into Zn/Sn-air batteries is a promising strategy for enhancing their performance.However,the photothermal and photoelectric effects generate heat in the battery under prolonged solar irradiation,leading to air cathode instability.This paper presents the first design and synthesis of Ni_(2)-1,5-diamino-4,8-dihydroxyanthraquinone(Ni_(2)DDA),an electronically conductiveπ-d conjugated metal-organic framework(MOF).Ni_(2)DDA exhibits both photoelectric and photothermal effects,with an optical band gap of~1.14 eV.Under illumination,Ni_(2)DDA achieves excellent oxygen evolution reaction performance(with an overpotential of 245 mV vs.reversible hydrogen electrode at 10 mA cm^(−2))and photothermal stability.These properties result from the synergy between the photoelectric and photothermal effects of Ni_(2)DDA.Upon integration into Zn/Sn-air batteries,Ni_(2)DDA ensures excellent cycling stability under light and exhibits remarkable performance in high-temperature environments up to 80℃.This study experimentally confirms the stable operation of photo-assisted Zn/Sn-air batteries under high-temperature conditions for the first time and provides novel insights into the application of electronically conductive MOFs in photoelectrocatalysis and photothermal catalysis.

文摘The use of high entropy alloy as a binder for tungsten heavy alloys offers potential advantages.The 95W-5CoCrFeMnNi alloys(95W-HEAs)were prepared via powder metallurgy at sintering temperatures of 1400−1550℃.The microstructure analysis revealed that the tungsten phase in 95W-HEAs exhibited a nearly spherical morphology in the HEA binder matrix and the formation of a Cr−Mn oxide mixed phase was observed.The sintering temperature exerted a significant influence on the relative density,grain size,W−W contiguity,and mechanical properties of the alloys.The optimal performance was achieved when sintering at 1450℃,yielding a relative density of 96.61%,a W−W contiguity of 0.528,an average grain size of 18.97μm,a compressive strength of 2234.82 MPa,and a hardness of HV 400.6.The activation energy for the diffusion of tungsten in the liquid phase formed by HEA binder was calculated to be 354.514 kJ/mol,highlighting its role in controlling grain growth.
文摘This study investigates the thermo–mechanical behavior of C40 concrete and reinforced concrete subjected to elevated temperatures up to 700℃by integrating experimental testing and advanced numerical modeling.A temperature-indexed Concrete Damage Plasticity(CDP)framework incorporating bond–slip effects was developed in Abaqus to capture both global stress–strain responses and localized damage evolution.Uniaxial compression tests on thermally exposed cylinders provided residual strength data and failure observations for model calibration and validation.Results demonstrated a distinct two-stage degradation regime:moderate stiffness and strength reduction up to~400℃,followed by sharp deterioration beyond 500℃–600℃,with residual capacity at 700℃reduced to~20%–25%of the ambient value.Strain–damage analyses revealed the formation of a peripheral tensile strain band,which thickened and propagated inward with increasing temperature,governing crack initiation and cover spalling.Supplemental analyses highlighted that transverse reinforcement improved ductility and damage distribution at moderate temperatures(~300℃),but bond deterioration and steel softening beyond~600℃substantially diminished confinement effectiveness.The proposed CDP model accurately reproduced experimental stress–strain curves(R^(2)≈0.94–0.98 up to 600℃;≈0.90 at 700℃),with peak stress errors within 7%–10%and energy absorption captured within~12%.These findings confirm the robustness of the temperature-indexed CDP framework for simulating fire-damaged reinforced concrete and provide practical guidelines for post-fire assessment,spalling detection,and fire-resilient design of structural members.

文摘CO_(2)flooding enhanced oil recovery(CO_(2)-EOR)represents a significant technology in the low permeability reservoir.With the fractures and heterogeneity in low permeability reservoirs,CO_(2)-EOR is susceptible to pessimistic gas channeling.Consequently,there is a need to develop conformance control materials that can be used in CO_(2)-EOR.Herein,to address the challenges of low strength and poor stability of polymer gel in high temperature and low permeability reservoirs,a new organic/metal ion composite crosslinking polymer gel(AR-Gel)is reported,which is formed by low hydrolysis and medium to high molecular weight polymer(CX-305),organic crosslinking agent(phenolic resin),and aluminium citrate(AI(Ⅲ)).The crosslinking of AI(Ⅲ)with carboxyl group and organic/metal ion double crosslinking can construct a more complex and stable polymer gel structure on the basis of traditional chemical crosslinking,to cope with the harsh conditions such as high temperature.The structure-activity relationship of AR-Gel was revealed by rheology behavior and micro-morphology.The applicability of AR-Gel in reservoir was investigated,as was its strength and stability in supercritical CO_(2).The anti-gas channeling and enhanced oil recovery of AR-Gel were investigated using low permeability fractured cores,and the field process parameters were provided.The gel can be used to meet supercritical CO_(2)reservoirs at 110℃and 20,000 mg/L salinity,with long-term stability over 60 days.The plugging rate of AR-Gel for fractured co re was 97%,with subsequent CO_(2)flooding re sulting in an enhanced oil recovery by 34.5%.ARGel can effectively control CO_(2)gas channeling and enhanced oil recovery.It offers a new material with high strength and temperature resistance,which is particularly beneficial in the CO_(2)flooding for the conformance control of oil field.

文摘Polymer dielectrics possessing excellent electrical insulation and high thermal conductivity are pivotal for dielectric capacitors at elevated temperatures.However,the integration of electrical insulation and thermal conductivity in polymers remains a challenge.In this work,we present a feasible strategy to integrate high electrical insulation and high thermal conductivity by bonding carbon quantum dots(CQDs)with the diamine monomer of polyetherimide(PEI).The CQDs with Coulomb blockade effect serve as traps for the migrating of electrons in the dielectrics,while the bonding networks formed by CQDs and PEI further deepen the traps and augment trap density.As a result,the hybrid dielectrics(PEI-NH_(2)-CQDs)exhibit nearly an order of magnitude higher electrical resistivity than that of pure PEI,leading to an 80%increase in discharge energy density with an energy efficiency of 90%at 200℃ compared to pure counterpart.Additionally,this all-organic dielectric achieves a significantly increased thermal conductivity of 0.65 W m^(-1) K^(-1) compared to 0.26 W m^(-1) K^(-1) of PEI,which supports its cyclic stability at elevated temperatures.We also demonstrate the kilogram-scale production of CQDs,synthesizing over 8 kg in a single batch,paving the way for large-scale production of reliable PEI-NH_(2)-CQDs dielectrics.

文摘The roughness of the fracture surface directly affects the strength,deformation,and permeability of the surrounding rock in deep underground engineering.Understanding the effect of high temperature and thermal cycle on the fracture surface roughness plays an important role in estimating the damage degree and stability of deep rock mass.In this paper,the variations of fracture surface roughness of granite after different heating and thermal cycles were investigated using the joint roughness coefficient method(JRC),three-dimensional(3D)roughness parameters,and fractal dimension(D),and the mechanism of damage and deterioration of granite were revealed.The experimental results show an increase in the roughness of the granite fracture surface as temperature and cycle number were incremented.The variations of JRC,height parameter,inclination parameter and area parameter with the temperature conformed to the Boltzmann's functional distribution,while the D decreased linearly as the temperature increased.Besides,the anisotropy index(Ip)of the granite fracture surface increased as the temperature increased,and the larger parameter values of roughness characterization at different temperatures were attained mainly in directions of 20°–40°,60°–100°and 140°–160°.The fracture aperture of granite after fracture followed the Gauss distribution and the average aperture increased with increasing temperature,which increased from 0.665 mm at 25℃to 1.058 mm at 800℃.High temperature caused an uneven thermal expansion,water evaporation,and oxidation of minerals within the granite,which promoted the growth and expansion of microfractures,and reduced interparticle bonding strength.In particular,the damage was exacerbated by the expansion and cracking of the quartz phase transition after T>500℃.Thermal cycles contributed to the accumulation of this damage and further weakened the interparticle bonding forces,resulting in a significant increase in the roughness,anisotropy,and aperture of the fracture surface after five cycles.

文摘The deterioration of aqueous zinc-ion batteries(AZIBs)is confronted with challenges such as unregulated Zn^(2+)diffusion,dendrite growth and severe decay in battery performance under harsh environments.Here,a design concept of eutectic electrolyte is presented by mixing long chain polymer molecules,polyethylene glycol dimethyl ether(PEGDME),with H_(2)O based on zinc trifluoromethyl sulfonate(Zn(OTf)2),to reconstruct the Zn^(2+)solvated structure and in situ modified the adsorption layer on Zn electrode surface.Molecular dynamics simulations(MD),density functional theory(DFT)calculations were combined with experiment to prove that the long-chain polymer-PEGDME could effectively reduce side reactions,change the solvation structure of the electrolyte and priority absorbed on Zn(002),achieving a stable dendrite-free Zn anode.Due to the comprehensive regulation of solvation structure and zinc deposition by PEGDME,it can stably cycle for over 3200 h at room temperature at 0.5 mA/cm^(2)and 0.5 mAh/cm^(2).Even at high-temperature environments of 60℃,it can steadily work for more than 800 cycles(1600 h).Improved cyclic stability and rate performance of aqueous Zn‖VO_(2)batteries in modified electrolyte were also achieved at both room and high temperatures.Beyond that,the demonstration of stable and high-capacity Zn‖VO_(2)pouch cells also implies its practical application.

文摘Low-to medium-maturity oil shale resources display substantial reserves, offering promising prospects for in-situ conversion inChina. Investigating the evolution of the mechanical properties of the reservoir and caprock under in-situ high-temperature and confine-ment conditions is of considerable importance. Compared to conventional mechanical experiments on rock samples after high-temperat-ure treatment, in-situ high-temperature experiments can more accurately characterize the behavior of rocks in practical engineering,thereby providing a more realistic reflection of their mechanical properties. In this study, an in-situ high-temperature triaxial compressiontesting machine is developed to conduct in-situ compression tests on sandstone at different temperatures(25, 200, 400, 500, and 650℃)and confining pressures(0, 10, and 20 MPa). Based on the experimental results, the temperature-dependent changes in compressivestrength, peak strain, elastic modulus, Poisson's ratio, cohesion, and internal friction angle are thoroughly analyzed and discussed. Resultsindicate that the mass of sandstone gradually decreases as the temperature increases. The thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity ofsandstone exhibit a linear relationship with temperature. Peak stress decreases as the temperature rises, while it increases with higher con-fining pressures. Notably, the influence of confining pressure on peak stress diminishes at higher temperatures. Additionally, as the tem-perature rises, the Poisson's ratio of sandstone decreases. The internal friction angle also decreases with increasing temperature, with 400℃ acting as the threshold temperature. Interestingly, under uniaxial conditions, the damage stress of sandstone is less affected by tem-perature. However, when the confining pressure is 10 or 20 MPa, the damage stress decreases as the temperature increases. This study en-hances our understanding of the influence of in-situ high-temperature and confinement conditions on the mechanical properties of sand-stone strata. The study also provides valuable references and experimental data that support the development of low-to medium-maturityoil shale resources.

文摘Gallium nitride(GaN)single crystal with prominent electron mobility and heat resistance have great potential in the high temperature integrate electric power systems.However,the sluggish charge storage kinetics and inadequate energy densities are bottlenecks to its practical application.Herein,the self-supported GaN/Mn_(3)O_(4) integrated electrode is developed for both energy harvesting and storage under the high temperature environment.The experimental and theoretical calculations results reveal that such integrated structures with Mn-N heterointerface bring abundant active sites and reconstruct low-energy barrier channels for efficient charge transferring,reasonably optimizing the ions adsorption ability and strengthening the structural stability.Consequently,the assembled GaN based supercapacitors deliver the power density of 34.0 mW cm^(-2) with capacitance retention of 81.3%after 10000 cycles at 130℃.This work innovatively correlates the centimeter scale GaN single crystal with ideal theoretical capacity Mn_(3)O_(4) and provides an effective avenue for the follow-up energy storage applications of the wide bandgap semiconductor.

文摘Oil shale is characterized by a dense structure,low proportion of pores and fissures,and low permeability.Pore-fracture systems serve as crucial channels for shale oil migration,directly influencing the production efficiency of shale oil resources.Effectively stimulating oil shale reservoirs remains a challenging and active research topic.This investigation employed shale specimens obtained from the Longmaxi Formation.Scanning electron microscopy,fluid injection experiments,and fluid-structure interaction simulations were used to comprehensively analyze structural changes and fluid flow behavior under high temperatures from microscopic to macroscopic scales.Experimental results indicate that the temperature has little effect on the structure and permeability of shale before 300℃.However,there are two threshold temperatures within the range of 300 to 600℃that have significant effects on the structure and permeability of oil shale.The first threshold temperature is between 300 and 400℃,which causes the oil shale porosity,pore-fracture ratio,and permeability begin to increase.This is manifested by the decrease in micropores and mesopores,the increase in macropores,and the formation of a large number of isolated pores and fissures within the shale.The permeability increases but not significantly.The second threshold temperature is between 500 and 600℃,which increases the permeability of oil shale significantly.During this stage,micropores and mesopores are further reduced,and macropores are significantly enlarged.A large number of connected and penetrated pores and fissures are formed.More numerous and thicker streamlines appear inside the oil shale.The experimental results demonstrate that high temperatures significantly alter the microstructure and permeability of oil shale.At the same time,the experimental results can provide a reference for the research of in-situ heating techniques in oil shale reservoir transformation.

文摘This work investigated the anisotropy tensile properties of Inconel 625 alloy fabricated by laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) under various tests temperature, focusing the anisotropy evolution during the high temperature. The microstructure contained columnar grains with (111) texture in the vertical plane (90° sample), while a large equiaxed grain with (100) texture was produced in the horizontal plane (0° sample). As for 45° sample, a large number of equiaxed grains and a few columnar grains with (111) texture can be observed. The sample produced at a 0° orientation demonstrates the highest tensile strength, whereas the 90° sample exhibits the greatest elongation. Conversely, the 45° sample displays the least favorable overall performance. As the tests temperature increased from room temperature to 600℃, the anisotropy rate of ultimate tensile strength, yield strength and ductility between 0° and 45° samples, decreased from 8.98 to 6.96%, 2.36 to 1.28%, 19.93 to 12.23%, as well as between 0° and 90° samples decreased from 4.87 to 4.03%, 11.88 to 7.21% and 14.11 to 6.89%, respectively, because of the recovery of oriented columnar grains.

文摘The high-temperature mechanical properties of Ta-8W-2Hf alloy doped with Re(1wt%)and C(0.01wt%)were investigated at room temperature,1300℃,and 1500℃.Results show that fine and dispersed precipitates Ta2C are detected in crystallized TaWHfReC alloy,which significantly enhance mechanical properties of the alloy.The strength of TaWHfReC alloy is much higher than that of TaWHf alloy,especially at 1300 and 1500℃.At 1300℃,the ultimate tensile strength of the TaWHf alloy is 322 MPa,while that of the TaWHfReC alloy reaches 392 MPa.When the temperature rises to 1500℃,precipitated-phase strengthening remains effective in the TaWHfReC alloy,achieving an ultimate tensile strength of 268 MPa.Additionally,at 1300℃,the elongation of the TaWHfReC alloy reaches 23.5%,which is nearly twice of that of the TaWHf alloy.The significant improvement in the mechanical properties of the TaWHfReC alloy at elevated temperatures is primarily attributed to the interaction between dislocations and the fine Ta2C precipitated phase.The fine and uniformly distributed particles effectively inhibit dislocation motion and exhibit a pronounced strengthening effect at high temperatures.
