These calls facilitate communication among adults and alert nestlings to potential danger. While heterospecific call recognition has been extensively studied in adult birds, nestlings—lacking direct predation experience and heterospecific alarm exposure—represent an ideal system to investigate the response to interspecific warning cues. This study explored the recognition capabilities of 5–6-day-old nestlings in Oriental Reed Warbler (Acrocephalus orientalis), a common host of the Common Cuckoo (Cuculus canorus). We exposed the nestlings to playbacks of alarm calls directed at parasites and raptors from conspecific, Vinous-throated Parrotbill (Sinosuthora webbiana, sympatric species), Isabelline Shrike (Lanius isabellinus, allopatric species) and Common Tailorbird (Orthotomus sutorius, allopatric species) adults. Results indicated that there was no significant difference in the responses of nestlings to the alarm calls of conspecific and allopatric adults directed at cuckoos and sparrowhawks. In addition, interestingly, nestlings significantly reduced their begging in response to conspecific and unfamiliar allopatric Isabelline Shrike and Common Tailorbird alarm calls but exhibited a weak response to the sympatric Vinous-throated Parrotbill. Whether older warbler nestlings with more social experience exhibit stronger responses to the alarm calls of Vinous-throated Parrotbill adults requires further investigation.展开更多

文摘To explore the formation mechanism of anisotropy in Ti-6Al-4V alloy fabricated by selective laser melting(SLM),the compressive mechanical properties,microhardness,microstructure,and crystallographic orientation of the alloy across different planes were investigated.The anisotropy of SLM-fabricated Ti-6Al-4V alloys was analyzed,and the electron backscatter diffraction technique was used to investigate the influence of different grain types and orientations on the stress-strain distribution at various scales.Results reveal that in room-temperature compression tests at a strain rate of 10^(-3) s^(-1),both the compressive yield strength and microhardness vary along the deposition direction,indicating a certain degree of mechanical property anisotropy.The alloy exhibits a columnar microstructure;along the deposition direction,the grains appear equiaxed,and they have internal hexagonal close-packed(hcp)α/α'martensitic structure.α'phase has a preferential orientation approximately along the<0001>direction.Anisotropy arises from the high aspect ratio of columnar grains,along with the weak texture of the microstructure and low symmetry of the hcp crystal structure.

文摘The effects of initial spin orientation on the final electron beam polarization in laser wakefield acceleration in a pre-polarized plasma are investigated theoretically and numerically.From the results of variation of the initial spin direction,the spin dynamics of the electron beam are found to depend on the self-injection mechanism.The effects of wakefields and laser fields are studied using test particle dynamics and particle-in-cell simulations based on the Thomas-Bargmann-Michel-Telegdi equation.Compared with transverse injection,longitudinal injection is found to be preferable for obtaining a highly polarized electron beam.

文摘Systematically analyzing the impact mechanisms of policy on Land Use Conflict(LUC)is crucial for constructing effective conflict mitigation strategies.However,previous research on how policy influences LUC remains relatively limited.Focusing on the indirect driving role of policy on LUC,this study proposed County Development Level(CDL)under Major Function Oriented Zone Planning(MFOZP)guidance as an intermediary variable,bridging the implicit influence of MFOZP and the explicit changes in LUC.Using the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei(BTH)region in China as a case study,we analyzed the spatio-temporal evolution characteristics of LUC and CDL for the periods 2000-2010 and 2010-2020,before and after MFOZP implementation.Panel models and Geographically Weighted Regression(GWR)were employed to explore the mechanism by which CDL influences LUC under MFOZP guidance.The results show that:1)MFOZP implementation effectively alleviates land use pressure from regional development,with LUC continuously declining at a rate of 2.41%,while CDL exhibits slight growth(3.84%),during 2010-2020.2)Under MFOZP guidance,CDL reduces pressure on Land Use Structure Conflict(LUSC)and Land Use Process Conflict(LUPC),enhances its inhibitory effect on Land Use Function Conflict(LUFC),and significantly contributes to LUC coordination,with notable spatial heterogeneity.3)The coupling relationship between CDL and LUC has improved post-implementation.Based on this,tailored LUC coordination strategies are proposed for different functional zones.This study confirms the effectiveness of MFOZP in coordinating LUC and provides a scientific reference for LUC research under policy frameworks and the governance of LUC in the BTH region.

文摘Some patients with systemic lupus erythematosus experience neuropsychiatric symptoms.Although magnetic resonance imaging can detect abnormal signals in the white matter of the brain,conventional methods often struggle to accurately capture microstructural changes.Various diffusion models have been used to study white matter in systemic lupus erythematosus;however,comparative analyses of their sensitivity and specificity for detecting microstructural changes remain insufficient.To address this,our team designed a diagnostic trial that used multimodal diffusion imaging techniques to observe white matter microstructural changes in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus who had neuropsychiatric symptoms,with an aim to identify key diagnostic biomarkers for these patients.Patients with active lupus who received treatment at the Department of Rheumatology and Immunology,The First Affiliated Hospital of China Medical University,from September 2023 to March 2024 were recruited.According to the standards of the American College of Rheumatology,patients with systemic lupus erythematosus who had neuropsychiatric symptoms were assigned to the systemic lupus erythematosus group,whereas those without neuropsychiatric symptoms were assigned to the non-systemic lupus erythematosus group.Additionally,healthy volunteers matched by region,sex,and age were recruited as controls.All three groups underwent the same diffusion magnetic resonance imaging examination protocol to compare differences in diffusion parameters.Advanced diffusion imaging models were able to sensitively detect microstructural changes in the white matter fibers of patients with systemic lupus erythematosus who had neuropsychiatric symptoms,with specific diffusion parameters showing significant abnormalities in key brain regions.In the left superior longitudinal fasciculus subregion and the right thalamic radiations of patients with systemic lupus erythematosus who had neuropsychiatric symptoms,we also identified abnormal diffusion characteristics that were clearly correlated with disease activity,suggesting that microstructural changes in these areas may reflect the dynamic process of neuroinflammatory damage.The present study addresses critical challenges in the diagnosis of systemic lupus erythematosus by identifying specific white matter imaging biomarkers and elucidating the association between microstructural damage and clinical manifestations.The main contributions of our study include:1)establishing axial regression probability parameters from mean apparent propagator magnetic resonance imaging as sensitive biomarkers for systemic lupus erythematosus,particularly in the third subregion of the left superior longitudinal fasciculus;2)demonstrating that multimodal diffusion imaging may be superior to conventional diffusion tensor imaging for detecting white matter microstructural abnormalities in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus;and 3)integrating tract-based spatial statistics with clinically relevant analyses to link imaging findings to pathological mechanisms.
文摘Across four studies,we explore the impact of solitude on consumers’reliance on feelings versus reasons in decision making,along with the underlying mechanism and boundary conditions.The results indicate that solitude individuals(vs.non-solitude)would prefer feeling-based strategy in decision-making,resulting in a higher intention of choosing the affectively superior option over the cognitively superior option(Study 1).Self-focus plays the underlying mechanism in the solitude effect(Study 2).Moreover,we also examine two boundary conditions:motivation(Study 3)and temporal orientation(Study 4),which indicates that involuntary motivation and future orientation can mitigate the solitude effect on affective processing.These findings provide insights into consumers’judgments of product attributes and selection of decision-making strategies according to their situations.

文摘Although magnesium-aluminum alloys,such as AZ80 and AZ91 have promising application potential in automotive,high-speed train and aerospace fields,their age-hardening response is generally not very appreciable.In this work,the aging-hardening response of AZ80 alloy was effectively enhanced by applying cold-rolling deformation before conducting conventional aging treatment at 200°C.Compared to the directly aged sample,the yield strength of the pre-rolling and aged sample was increased by 35 MPa.Electron microscope examination confirmed that profuse{10¯11}and{10¯11}-{10¯12}twins,consisting of high density of dislocations and stacking faults,were generated by cold rolling.Blocky or ellipsoidal Mg_(17)Al_(12)precipitates formed at the twin boundaries(TBs)during subsequent aging treatment.Crystallographic analysis indicated that the precipitates at{10¯11}TBs always held an identical Potter OR with both the matrix and twin,while the precipitates at{10¯11}-{10¯12}TBs exhibited three different ORs:Burgers OR,Potter OR and P-S OR with either the matrix or the twin.Moreover,recrystallized grains were found inside{10¯11}-{10¯12}double twins after peak-aging at 200°C,implying that precipitation and recrystallization might occur concurrently along TBs at a relatively low temperature.It was speculated that the highly stored energy inside twins and the high elastic energy between the precipitates and twins were driving factors for the occurrence of recrystallization.

文摘Crack initiation mechanism of dwell fatigue has always been a key problem in rationalizing the dwell effect,and it is not completely understood yet.This study conducted stress-controlled low-cycle fatigue and dwell fatigue tests on Ti-6Al-3Nb-2Zr-1Mo alloy with bimodal microstructure to reveal its microstructural characteristics and crack initiation mechanisms.The study demonstrated that the faceted primaryα nodules located near the specimen surface acted as crack initiation sites during both fatigue and dwell fatigue tests.Slip trace analysis revealed that faceted cracking occurred at(0001)basal plane with the maximum Schmid factor value through a special cracking mode referred to as(0001)twist boundary cracking.Innovative criteria of parameters C1 and C2 were proposed based on experimental observation and molecular dynamics simulations,which well identify candidates for(0001)twist boundary crack nucleation.It demonstrated that grain pairs combining a moderately high Schmid factor for basal slip and a well-orientated Burgers vector in the out-of-surface plane was the preferable location for surface(0001)twist-boundary crack initiation,and grain pairs combining a high Schmid factor for basal slip and a high normal stress on basal plane are perfect candidates for subsurface cracking.Based on this,phenomeno-logical models are proposed to explain the surface(0001)twist-boundary cracking mechanism from the perspective of surface extrusion-intrusion-induced micro-notches.

文摘Determining the orientation of in-situ stresses is crucial for various geoscience and engineering appli-cations.Conventional methods for estimating these stress orientations often depend on focal mechanism solutions(FMSs)derived from earthquake data and formation micro-imager(FMI)data from well logs.However,these techniques can be costly,depth-inaccurate,and may lack spatial coverage.To address this issue,we introduce the use of three-dimensional(3D)seismic data(active sources)as a lateral constraint to approximate the 3D stress orientation field.Recognizing that both stress and fracture patterns are closely related to seismic velocity anisotropy,we derive the orientation of azimuthal anisotropy from multi-azimuth 3D seismic data to compensate for the lack of spatial stress orientation information.We apply our proposed workflow to a case study in the Weiyuan area of the Sichuan Basin,China,a region targeted for shale gas production.By integrating diverse datasets,including 3D seismic,earthquakes,and well logs,we develop a comprehensive 3D model of in-situ stress(orientations and magnitudes).Our results demonstrate that the estimated anisotropy orientations from 3D seismic data are consistent with the direction of maximum horizontal principal stress(SHmax)obtained from FMIs.We analyzed 12 earthquakes(magnitude>3)recorded between 2016 and 2020 for their FMSs and compressional axis(P-axis)orientations.The derived SHmax direction from our 3D stress model is 110°ES(East-South),which shows excellent agreement with the FMSs(within 3.96°).This close alignment validates the reliability and precision of our integrated method for predicting 3D SHmax orientations.

文摘Fracture(fault)reactivation can lead to dynamic geological hazards including earthquakes,rock collapses,landslides,and rock bursts.True triaxial compression tests were conducted to analyze the fracture reactivation process under two different orientations of σ_(2),i.e.σ_(2) parallel to the fracture plane(Scheme 2)and σ_(2) cutting through the fracture plane(Scheme 3),under varying σ_(3) from 10 MPa to 40 MPa.The peak or fracture reactivation strength,deformation,failure mode,and post-peak mechanical behavior of intact(Scheme 1)and pre-fractured(Schemes 2 and 3)specimens were also compared.Results show that for intact specimens,the stress remains nearly constant in the residual sliding stage with no stick-slip,and the newly formed fracture surface only propagates along the σ_(2) direction when σ_(3) ranges from 10 MPa to 30 MPa,while it extends along both σ_(2) and σ_(3) directions when σ_(3) increases to 40 MPa;for the pre-fractured specimens,the fractures are usually reactivated under all the σ_(3) levels in Scheme 2,but fracture reactivation only occurs when σ_(3) is greater than 25 MPa in Scheme 3,below which new faulting traversing the original macro fracture occurs.In all the test schemes,both ε_(2) and ε_(3) experience an accumulative process of elongation,after which an abrupt change occurs at the point of the final failure;the degree of this change is dependent on the orientation of the new faulting or the slip direction of the original fracture,and it is generally more than 10 times larger in the slip direction of the original fracture than in the non-slip direction.Besides,the differential stress(peak stress)required for reactivation and the post-peak stress drop increase with increasing σ_(3).Post-peak stress drop and residual strength in Scheme 3 are generally greater than those in Scheme 2 at the same σ_(3) value.Our study clearly shows that intermediate principal stress orientation not only affects the fracture reactivation strength but also influences the slip deformation and failure modes.These new findings facilitate the mitigation of dynamic geological hazards associated with fracture and fault slip.
文摘Grain-oriented silicon steels were prepared at different heating rates during high temperature annealing,in which the evolution of magnetic properties,grain orientations and precipitates were studied.To illustrate the Zener factor,the diameter and number density of precipitates of interrupted testing samples were statistically calculated.The effect of precipitate ripening on the Goss texture and magnetic property was investigated.Data indicated that the trend of Zener factor was similar under different heating rates,first increasing and then decreasing,and that the precipitate maturing was greatly inhibited as the heating rate increased.Secondary recrystallization was developed at the temperature of 1010℃when a heating rate of 5℃/h was used,resulting in Goss,Brass and{110}<227>oriented grains growing abnormally and a magnetic induction intensity of 1.90T.Furthermore,increasing the heating rate to 20℃/h would inhibit the development of undesirable oriented grains and obtain a sharp Goss texture.However,when the heating rate was extremely fast,such as 40℃/h,poor secondary recrystallization was developed with many island grains,corresponding to a decrease in magnetic induction intensity to 1.87 T.At a suitable heating rate of 20℃/h,the sharpest Goss texture and the highest magnetic induction of 1.94 T with an onset secondary recrystallization temperature of 1020℃were found among the experimental variables in this study.The heating rate affected the initial temperature of secondary recrystallization by controlling the maturation of precipitates,leading to the deviation and dispersion of Goss texture,thereby reducing the magnetic properties.
文摘Oriented graphene aerogels have limited applica-tions because the flexibility of their graphene sheets and mi-crostructure give them a low skeleton strength,insufficient compression resilience,and poor flexibility.We report the preparation of novel aerogel materials with a much better per-formance.Using the driving force of graphene oxide(GO)self-assembly andπ-πinteractions,carbon nanotubes(CNTs)were attached to the GO sheets,and an oriented composite carbon skeleton was constructed using“hydro-plastic foam-ing”.The introduction of CNTs significantly increased the strength of the skeleton and gave the aerogel an excellent re-versible compressibility.The innovative use of cold pressing greatly improved the thermal conductivity and flexibility of the aerogel,providing new ideas for the development of high-performance aerogels.Tests show that the obtained graphene composite aerogel has a reversible compressive strain of over 90%and can withstand 500 compression cycles along the direc-tion of pore accumulation.It can endure more than 10000 bending cycles perpendicular to the direction of composite carbon layer stacking,and its in-plane thermal conductivity reaches 64.5 W·m^(-1)·K^(-1).When filled with phase change materials,the high porosity of the carbon skeleton enables the material to have a high phase change filling rate,and its phase change enthalpy is greater than 150 J/g.Thanks to the exceptional flexibility of the carbon skeleton,the macrostructure of phase change materials can be bent as needed to adapt to thermal management scenarios and conform to device shapes.This significantly enhances practical application compatibility,providing flexible support for temperature control and thermal management across diverse device forms.

文摘A redox-active monolayer on an optically transparent electrode constitutes a typical platform for spectroelectrochemical sensing.The necessity for its sophistication arises from the availability of multi-dimensional sensing signals.Simultaneous monitoring of the redox current and color change synchronized with the oxidation state change significantly enhances sen-sitivity and selectivity.This study aimed to elucidate the modification of an indium tin oxide(ITO)electrode with a viologen monolayer with an ordered orientation.Novel methods were developed to immobilize a viologen molecule bearing a car-boxyl group to form assembled monolayers through a condensation reaction using 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-car-bodiimide with N-hydroxy-succinimide(EDC/NHS).In the two methods of immobilization,one utilizes a two-step process to firstly form an aromatic siloxane base layer and subsequently attach the viologen derivative through an amide linkage by post-amidation.The other employs a direct ester linkage between the hydroxyl groups of the ITO surface and the car-boxyl group of the viologen derivative.The latter method was also applied to immobilize a ferrocenyl group at a very short distance from the ITO surface.Potential-modulated UV-visible transmission absorption spectral measurement techniques with oblique incidence of plane-polarized light were employed to determine the orientation of the longitudinal axis of the reduced form of the viologen.The frequency dependence data of the potential-modulated transmission absorption signals were utilized to analyze the electron transfer kinetics.The performance of the two viologen-modified electrodes was com-pared to that of an ITO modified by post-amidation to the most commonly used base layer prepared with 3-aminopropyl triethoxysilane.

文摘The estimation of orientation parameters and correction of lens distortion are crucial problems in the field of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles(UAVs)photogrammetry.In recent years,the utilization of UAVs for aerial photogrammetry has witnessed a surge in popularity.Typically,UAVs are equipped with low-cost non-metric cameras and a Position and Orientation System(POS).Unfortunately,the Interior Orientation Parameters(IOPs)of the non-metric cameras are not fixed.Whether the lens distortions are large or small,they effect the image coordinates accordingly.Additionally,Inertial Measurement Units(IMUs)often have observation errors.To address these challenges and improve parameter estimation for UAVs Light Detection and Ranging(LiDAR)and photogrammetry,this paper analyzes the accuracy of POS observations obtained from Global Navigation Satellite System Real Time Kinematic(GNSS-RTK)and IMU data.A method that incorporates additional known conditions for parameter estimation,a series of algorithms to simultaneously solve for IOPs,Exterior Orientation Parameters(EOPs),and camera lens distortion correction parameters are proposed.Extensive experiments demonstrate that the coordinates measured by GNSS-RTK can be directly used as linear EOPs;however,angular EOP measurements from IMUs exhibit relatively large errors compared to adjustment results and require correction during the adjustment process.The IOPs of non-metric cameras vary slightly between images but need to be treated as unknown parameters in high precision applications.Furthermore,it is found that the Ebner systematic error model is sensitive to the choice of the magnification parameter of the photographic baseline length in images,it should be set as less than or equal to one third of the photographic baseline to ensure stable solutions.
文摘After graduating from the China Academy of Arts(Department of Oil Painting)in Hangzhou in 1995,Yang Fudong(1971)moved to Shanghai to work as a graphic designer.Inspired by his daily job in Pudong,he started producing photographic series that closely resembled the advertising campaigns he worked on.Glossy images of stylish young people or dishevelled white collars in highly saturated colours,defined“intellectuals”in cryptic accompanying captions.Conversely,his body of work in black and white,almost entirely shot on 35mm film,portrays a suspended reality out of the historical time:a ghostly dimension akin to a drowsy vigil,a uchronia,an“estranged paradise”-to borrow the title of his earliest film set in Hangzhou.But it is Shanghai’s elusiveness and material relationship with the past that has contributed the most to form Yang’s trademark imagery and aesthetic.What he conjures up in his still and moving images,is a dimension with a distinctive oneiric quality,an“in-between”universe where all the circumstances are justified and have an inner logic,just like in dreams,or just like in the China of his childhood.The research of Yang Fudong is somewhat unique in the universe of contemporary Chinese art and sets him apart from a plethora of artists that have used the video in a much more“didactic”and quotational way.I will illustrate some specific aspects of his black and white body of work,trying to show how a certain self-orientalist trait can be interpreted as strategy to regain narrative agency and bring to the surface a series of removed instances:the main of which being,in my opinion,the fate of Shanghai’s(perhaps of China's Mainland in its ungraspable entirety?)modernity.

文摘Lead zirconate titanate(PbZr_(x)Ti_(1-x)O_(3),PZT)ferroelectric films possess remarkable characteristics such as high residual polarization,high dielectric constant,and high piezoelectric coefficient and have great application prospects in modern electronics,communications,medical care,and military fields.At present,the microstructure changes of PZT ferroelectric thin films have a significant impact on their electrical properties.Therefore,this work summarizes the influences of geometric structure(thickness,porosity),composition structure(Zr/Ti ratio,doping),and grain structure(grain size,grain boundaries,orientation)on the electrical properties of PZT ferroelectric thin films.The results show that the changes in thickness and porosity have a significant impact on the electrical properties of PZT ferroelectric films.Especially,the actual application scenarios and preparation processes determine the required geometric dimensions and structures of PZT ferroelectric films.The Zr/Ti ratio and doping mainly affect the electrical properties by influencing the phase composition of PZT ferroelectric films.The changes in grain size,boundary structure,and orientation dependence mainly have a certain degree of influence on the domain response and domain switching behavior of PZT ferroelectric thin films.In conclusion,different structures have different influence effects on the dielectric,ferroelectric,and piezoelectric properties of PZT ferroelectric films.The way the tiny structure affects how PZT thin films work was shown,helping to guide the design of ferroelectric thin film devices.In order to further study and apply piezoelectric ceramic devices,it is crucial to have an in-depth understanding of the relationship between the structure and performance of piezoelectric ceramic devices.

文摘Avian alarm calls mediate defenses against brood parasites and predators. These calls facilitate communication among adults and alert nestlings to potential danger. While heterospecific call recognition has been extensively studied in adult birds, nestlings—lacking direct predation experience and heterospecific alarm exposure—represent an ideal system to investigate the response to interspecific warning cues. This study explored the recognition capabilities of 5–6-day-old nestlings in Oriental Reed Warbler (Acrocephalus orientalis), a common host of the Common Cuckoo (Cuculus canorus). We exposed the nestlings to playbacks of alarm calls directed at parasites and raptors from conspecific, Vinous-throated Parrotbill (Sinosuthora webbiana, sympatric species), Isabelline Shrike (Lanius isabellinus, allopatric species) and Common Tailorbird (Orthotomus sutorius, allopatric species) adults. Results indicated that there was no significant difference in the responses of nestlings to the alarm calls of conspecific and allopatric adults directed at cuckoos and sparrowhawks. In addition, interestingly, nestlings significantly reduced their begging in response to conspecific and unfamiliar allopatric Isabelline Shrike and Common Tailorbird alarm calls but exhibited a weak response to the sympatric Vinous-throated Parrotbill. Whether older warbler nestlings with more social experience exhibit stronger responses to the alarm calls of Vinous-throated Parrotbill adults requires further investigation.

文摘The origin of the misorientations after fcc(face-centered cubic)to hcp(hexagonal close-packed)transformation in pure cobalt was elucidated by utilizing the electron backscatter diffraction(EBSD)technique and transformation crystallographic models.It is found the Shoji−Nishiyama orientation relationship during fcc→hcp transformation leads to four hcp variants,characterized by a common misorientation angle of 70.5°with respect to the<1120>direction,which is the predominant misorientation observed.Other statistically significant misorientation angles between hcp grains,including 32°,36°,38°,60°,71°and 86°−91°,are also identified.These newly observed misorientation angles are linked to the microstructure of the fcc matrix at elevated temperatures,with twin structures in the fcc matrix being the primary cause.Furthermore,a novel method is proposed for estimating the fraction of twins in the fcc grains based on misorientation angles between hcp variants,which is found to be consistent with experimental observations.In-situ EBSD observations validate the possible origin of fcc twins from the hcp→fcc transformation.
文摘This study investigated the political,economic,social,and cultural environment perceptions on international students that define their acculturation and health related quality of life.Participants were 117 international students from 32 countries attending a Chinese university(females=43%,mean age=21.17 years,SD=4.45 years).They reported on their acculturation to China and physical and psychological well-being.Results from t-tests and correlation analyses indicate political liberals had more positive attitudes toward China than the conservatives,and higher self-reported physical and psychological results.Higher scores on the“interdependence”dimension of self-construal,as well as the“extraversion”and“emotional stability”dimensions of personality traits,were associated with more positive views of China and better health outcomes.These findings are consistent with Berry’s framework for acculturation,which posits that individual-level variables are related to cultural adaptation,and that cultural adaptation is associated with improved physical and mental health.International student offices at host universities should implement comprehensive support programs,including language assistance,cultural orientation,and social integration initiatives to effectively enhance the health related quality of life of international students.
