文摘The moving morphable component(MMC)topology optimization method,as a typical explicit topology optimization method,has been widely concerned.In the MMC topology optimization framework,the surrogate material model is mainly used for finite element analysis at present,and the effectiveness of the surrogate material model has been fully confirmed.However,there are some accuracy problems when dealing with boundary elements using the surrogate material model,which will affect the topology optimization results.In this study,a boundary element reconstruction(BER)model is proposed based on the surrogate material model under the MMC topology optimization framework to improve the accuracy of topology optimization.The proposed BER model can reconstruct the boundary elements by refining the local meshes and obtaining new nodes in boundary elements.Then the density of boundary elements is recalculated using the new node information,which is more accurate than the original model.Based on the new density of boundary elements,the material properties and volume information of the boundary elements are updated.Compared with other finite element analysis methods,the BER model is simple and feasible and can improve computational accuracy.Finally,the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed method are verified by comparing it with the optimization results of the original surrogate material model through several numerical examples.

文摘We present a prototype for hybrid Compton and positron emission tomography(PET)imaging aimed at enhancing data utilization and enabling concurrent imaging of multiple radiopharmaceuticals.The prototype comprises two detectors that utilize LYSO-SiPM and were available in our laboratory.One detector consists of a 50×50 array of LYSO crystals,each measuring 0.9mm×0.9mm×10mm with 1 mm pitches,whereas the other detector comprises a 25×25 array of LYSO crystals,each measuring 1.9mm×1.9mm×10mm with 2 mm pitches.These detectors are mounted on a rotational stage,which enables them to function as either a Compton camera or a PET detector pair.The 64-channel signals from the SiPMs of each detector are processed through a capacitive multiplexing circuit to yield four position-weighted outputs.Distinct energy windows were used to discriminate Compton events from PET events.Energy resolution and energy-channel relationships were calibrated via multiple sources.The measured average energy resolutions(full widths at half maximum,FWHMs)for the detectors at 511 keV were 17.5%and 15.2%,respectively.The initial experimental results indicate an angular resolution(FWHM)of 8.6◦for the system in Compton imaging mode.A V-shaped tube injected with 18 F solution was clearly reconstructed,which further verified the imaging capabilities of the system in Compton imaging mode.The results of simulation and experimental imaging studies show that the system can detect tumors as small as 1 mm in diameter when working in PET imaging mode.Mouse bone PET imaging was successfully conducted,with the results matching well with the corresponding CT images.This technology holds great potential for advancing the development of physiological function modalities.

文摘We investigate the null tests of cosmic accelerated expansion by using the baryon acoustic oscillation(BAO)data measured by the dark energy spectroscopic instrument(DESI)and reconstruct the dimensionless Hubble parameter E(z)from the DESI BAO Alcock-Paczynski(AP)data using Gaussian process to perform the null test.We find strong evidence of accelerated expansion from the DESI BAO AP data.By reconstructing the deceleration parameter q(z) from the DESI BAO AP data,we find that accelerated expansion persisted until z■0.7 with a 99.7%confidence level.Additionally,to provide insights into the Hubble tension problem,we propose combining the reconstructed E(z) with D_(H)/r_(d) data to derive a model-independent result r_(d)h=99.8±3.1 Mpc.This result is consistent with measurements from cosmic microwave background(CMB)anisotropies using the ΛCDM model.We also propose a model-independent method for reconstructing the comoving angular diameter distance D_(M)(z) from the distance modulus μ,using SNe Ia data and combining this result with DESI BAO data of D_(M)/r_(d) to constrain the value of r_(d).We find that the value of r_(d),derived from this model-independent method,is smaller than that obtained from CMB measurements,with a significant discrepancy of at least 4.17σ.All the conclusions drawn in this paper are independent of cosmological models and gravitational theories.

文摘Economical,stable,and corrosion-resistant catalytic electrodes are still urgently needed for the oxygen evolution reaction(OER)in water and seawater.Herein,a mild electroless plating strategy is used to achieve large-scale preparation of the“integrated”phosphorus-based precatalyst(FeP-NiP)on nickel foam(NF),which is in situ reconstructed into a highly active and corrosion-resistant(Fe)NiOOH phase for OER.The interaction between phosphate anions(PO_(x)^(y-))and iron ions(Fe^(3+))tunes the electronic structure of the catalytic phase to further enhance OER kinetics.The integrated FeP-NiP@NF electrode exhibits low overpotentials for OER in alkaline water/seawater,requiring only 275/289,320/336,and 349/358 mV to reach 0.1,0.5,and 1.0 A cm^(−2),respectively.The in situ reconstructed PO_(x)^(y-)anion electrostatically repels Cl−in seawater electrolytes,allowing stable operation for over 7 days at 1.0 A cm^(−2) in extreme electrolytes(1.0 M KOH+seawater and 6.0 M KOH+seawater),demonstrating industrial-level stability.This study overcomes the complex synthesis limitations of P-based materials through innovative material design,opening new avenues for electrochemical energy conversion.
文摘BACKGROUND At present,the concept of surgical treatment of gastric cancer(GC)has changed from“radical treatment”to“care for patients”to a certain extent.The reconstruction method is the most likely to affect the postoperative life of the patient.Currently,the traditional Roux-en-Y esophagojejunostomy anastomosis is a commonly used method for gastrointestinal reconstruction after total gastrectomy for GC.However,more recent studies have shown that the traditional Roux-en-Y anastomosis is complicated in operation procedure,with more reconstruction steps and longer reconstruction time,and the incidence of postoperative complications such as adhesive intestinal obstruction,internal abdominal hernia and volvulus is high.Moreover,the incidence of Roux stasis syndrome is 10%-30%after traditional Roux-en-Y reconstruction.Thus,we modified the traditional Roux-en-Y alimentary tract reconstruction,and designed a new digestive tract reconstruction method for laparoscopy-assisted Roux-en-Y anastomosis for total gastrectomy of GC.AIM To evaluate the clinical advantages,feasibility,and safety of a modified Roux-en-Y digestive tract reconstruction in laparoscopy-assisted total gastrectomy for the treatment of GC compared with the traditional Roux-en-Y method.METHODS Ninety-seven patients who underwent laparoscopy-assisted D2 radical gastrectomy(total gastrectomy)for GC were divided into two groups:fifty-four in the conventional Roux-en-Y reconstruction group(Orr group)and forty-three in the modified Roux-en-Y reconstruction group(the modified group).Perioperative and short-term outcomes were analyzed,including complications,postoperative weight loss,hemoglobin levels,and nutritional status.RESULTS The Orr group and the modified group showed no statistically significant differences in baseline characteristics.Compared with the Orr group,the modified group had shorter digestive tract reconstruction and operation times,less intraoperative bleeding,and shorter postoperative hospital stays compared to the Orr group.Although both groups had similar amounts of intraoperative blood loss,postoperative recovery times,and hospital expenses,the Orr group experienced longer operation times and digestive tract reconstruction times.Furthermore,the modified Roux-en-Y group demonstrated significantly fewer short-term and long-term complications,with a reduced incidence of reflux esophagitis and improved nutritional status.CONCLUSION The modified Roux-en-Y digestive tract reconstruction method after laparoscopy-assisted total gastrectomy for GC offers safety,simplicity,and a reduction in bile reflux.This method shortens operation times and minimizes postoperative complications,aligns with modern rapid rehabilitation surgery trends and potentially improves patient prognosis and overall survival.This method warrants further clinical application and promotion.

文摘Deep-sea mineral resource transportation predominantly utilizes hydraulic pipeline methodology.Environmental factors induce vibrations in flexible pipelines,thereby affecting the internal flow characteristics.Therefore,real-time monitoring of solid–liquid two-phase flow in pipelines is crucial for system maintenance.This study develops an autoencoder-based deep learning framework to reconstruct three-dimensional solid–liquid two-phase flow within flexible vibrating pipelines utilizing sparse wall information from sensors.Within this framework,separate X-model and F-model with distinct hidden-layer structures are established to reconstruct the coordinates and flow field information on the computational domain grid of the pipeline under traveling wave vibration.Following hyperparameter optimization,the models achieved high reconstruction accuracy,demonstrating R^(2)values of 0.990 and 0.945,respectively.The models’robustness is evaluated across three aspects:vibration parameters,physical fields,and vibration modes,demonstrating good reconstruction performance.Results concerning sensors show that 20 sensors(0.06%of total grids)achieve a balance between accuracy and cost,with superior accuracy obtained when arranged along the full length of the pipe compared to a dense arrangement at the front end.The models exhibited a signal-to-noise ratio tolerance of approximately 27 dB,with reconstruction accuracy being more affected by sensor failures at both ends of the pipeline.

文摘TiFe alloys are AB-based hydrogen storage materials with unique characteristics and a wide range of applications.However,the presence of impurity gases(such as O_(2),CO,CO_(2),and CH4)has a considerable impact on the hydrogen storage capacity and kinetics of TiFe alloys,drastically limiting their practical application in hydrogen storage.Consequently,in this study,we investigated the hydrogen absorption kinetics and cycling performance of the TiFe_(0.9) alloy in the presence of common impurity gases(including CH4,CO,CO_(2),and O_(2))and determined the corresponding poisoning mechanisms.Specifically,we found that CH4 did not react with the alloy but acted through physical coverage.In contrast,CO and CO_(2) occupy the active sites for H_(2),significantly impeding the dissociation and absorption of H_(2).In addition,O_(2) reacts directly with the alloy to form a passivating layer that prevents hydrogen absorption.These findings were fur-ther corroborated by in situ Fourier transform infrared spectrometry(FTIR)and density functional theory(DFT).The relationship between the adsorption energies of the impurity gases and hydrogen obtained through DFT calculations complements the experimental results.Un-derstanding these poisoning behaviors is crucial for designing Ti-based high-entropy hydrogen storage alloy alloys with enhanced resist-ance to poisoning.

文摘The impact of heavy reduction on dendritic morphology was explored by combining experimental research and numerical simulation in metallurgy,including a detailed three-dimensional(3D)analysis and reconstruction of dendritic solidification structures.Combining scanning electron microscopy and energy-dispersive scanning analysis and ANSYS simulation,the high-precision image processing software Mimics Research was utilized to conduct the extraction of dendritic morphologies.Reverse engineering software NX Imageware was employed for the 3D reconstruction of two-dimensional dendritic morphologies,restoring the dendritic characteristics in three-dimensional space.The results demonstrate that in a two-dimensional plane,dendrites connect with each other to form irregularly shaped“ring-like”structures.These dendrites have a thickness greater than 0.1 mm along the Z-axis direction,leading to the envelopment of molten steel by dendrites in a 3D space of at least 0.1 mm.This results in obstructed flow,confirming the“bridging”of dendrites in three-dimensional space,resulting in a tendency for central segregation.Dense and dispersed tiny dendrites,under the influence of heat flow direction,interconnect and continuously grow,gradually forming primary and secondary dendrites in three-dimensional space.After the completion of dendritic solidification and growth,these microdendrites appear dense and dispersed on the two-dimensional plane,providing the nuclei for the formation of new dendrites.When reduction occurs at a solid fraction of 0.46,there is a noticeable decrease in dendritic spacing,resulting in improved central segregation.

文摘Deep geological sequestration is widely recognized as a reliable method for nuclear waste management,with expanded applications in thermal energy storage and adiabatic compressed air energy storage systems.This study evaluated the suitability of granite,basalt,and marble as reservoir rocks capable of withstanding extreme high-temperature and high-pressure conditions.Using a custom-designed triaxial testing apparatus for thermal-hydro-mechanical(THM)coupling,we subjected rock samples to temperatures ranging from 20℃to 800℃,triaxial stresses up to 25 MPa,and seepage pressures of 0.6 MPa.After THM treatment,the specimens were analyzed using a Real-Time Load-Synchronized Micro-Computed Tomography(MCT)Scanner under a triaxial stress of 25 MPa,allowing for high-resolution insights into pore and fissure responses.Our findings revealed distinct thermal stability profiles and microscopic parameter changes across three phasesdslow growth,slow decline,and rapid growthdwith critical temperature thresholds observed at 500℃for granite,600℃for basalt,and 300℃for marble.Basalt showed minimal porosity changes,increasing gradually from 3.83%at 20℃to 12.45%at 800℃,indicating high structural integrity and resilience under extreme THM conditions.Granite shows significant increases in porosity due to thermally induced microcracking,while marble rapidly deteriorated beyond 300℃due to carbonate decomposition.Consequently,basalt,with its minimal porosity variability,high thermal stability,and robust mechanical properties,emerges as an optimal candidate for nuclear waste repositories and other high-temperature geological engineering applications,offering enhanced reliability,structural stability,and long-term safety in such settings.

文摘Climate change and anthropogenic activities have driven significant terrestrial water storage changes(TWSC)in the Three Rivers Source Region(TRSR),exerting profound impacts on freshwater availability across China and broader Asia.However,long-term TWSC characterization remains challenging due to limited observational data in this alpine region.Here,we integrate GRACE observations(2002-2020),ERA5-Land reanalysis,and GLDAS data to reconstruct TWSC using two methods:(1)the water balance method(PER)and(2)the component summation method(SS),applied to three input datasets(ERA5-Land,GLDAS,and their average,GLER).Comparative analysis reveals that the SS method applied to GL-ER yields the highest consistency with GRACE-derived TWSC.Using this optimal approach,we extend the analysis to 1951~2020,uncovering spatiotemporal TWSC patterns.Although annual TWSC trends appear negligible due to strong seasonality,we introduce the intra-year TWSC fluctuation(TWSCF)index to quantify cumulative variability.A significant(p<0.05)transition occurred in 1980,with TWSCF shifting from a declining trend(-0.39 mm/yr)to an increasing trend(0.56 mm/yr),primarily driven by soil moisture changes.However,Hurst exponent analysis suggests this upward trend may not persist.Drought and vegetation assessments indicate concurrent wetting and greening in the TRSR.TWSC correlates strongly with meteorological drought,acting as a reliable drought indicator while its linkage with vegetation dynamics suggests a potential contribution to greening.Our findings provide a robust framework for understanding long-term TWSC evolution and its hydrological-ecological interactions under climate change.

文摘High-resolution transmission electron microscopy(HRTEM)promises rapid atomic-scale dynamic structure imaging.Yet,the precision limitations of aberration parameters and the challenge of eliminating aberrations in Cs-corrected transmission electron microscopy constrain resolution.A machine learning algorithm is developed to determine the aberration parameters with higher precision from small,lattice-periodic crystal images.The proposed algorithm is then validated with simulated HRTEM images of graphene and applied to the experimental images of a molybdenum disulfide(MoS_(2))monolayer with 25 variables(14 aberrations)resolved in wide ranges.Using these measured parameters,the phases of the exit-wave functions are reconstructed for each image in a focal series of MoS_(2)monolayers.The images were acquired due to the unexpected movement of the specimen holder.Four-dimensional data extraction reveals time-varying atomic structures and ripple.In particular,the atomic evolution of the sulfur-vacancy point and line defects,as well as the edge structure near the amorphous,is visualized as the resolution has been improved from about 1.75?to 0.9 A.This method can help salvage important transmission electron microscope images and is beneficial for the images obtained from electron microscopes with average stability.
文摘BACKGROUND Bioabsorbable interference screws are a widely used option for graft fixation in anterior cruciate ligament(ACL)reconstruction.Their ability to degrade over time and avoid secondary hardware removal makes them advantageous.However,complications such as breakage and intra-articular migration of screws can cause significant clinical issues,including joint pain,swelling,and cartilage damage.Early diagnosis and management are critical in such cases.CASE SUMMARY A 26-year-old male presented with knee pain and swelling one year after ACL reconstruction using a hamstring graft and bioabsorbable tibial interference screw.The patient had been engaged in rigorous physical activity as part of military training.Clinical examination revealed mild effusion without instability,and imaging showed screw breakage with intra-articular migration.Therapeutic arthroscopy confirmed intact graft tension,and broken screw fragments were removed successfully.The patient resumed normal activity two weeks after surgery.CONCLUSION This case highlights the potential complications associated with bioabsorbable screws,emphasizing the need for meticulous surgical technique,postoperative monitoring,and timely intervention.A comprehensive review of the literature illustrates the mechanisms,risk factors,and preventive strategies associated with screw-related complications.

文摘This study examines the effectiveness of artificial intelligence techniques in generating high-quality environmental data for species introductory site selection systems.Combining Strengths,Weaknesses,Opportunities,Threats(SWOT)analysis data with Variation Autoencoder(VAE)and Generative AdversarialNetwork(GAN)the network framework model(SAE-GAN),is proposed for environmental data reconstruction.The model combines two popular generative models,GAN and VAE,to generate features conditional on categorical data embedding after SWOT Analysis.The model is capable of generating features that resemble real feature distributions and adding sample factors to more accurately track individual sample data.Reconstructed data is used to retain more semantic information to generate features.The model was applied to species in Southern California,USA,citing SWOT analysis data to train the model.Experiments show that the model is capable of integrating data from more comprehensive analyses than traditional methods and generating high-quality reconstructed data from them,effectively solving the problem of insufficient data collection in development environments.The model is further validated by the Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to an Ideal Solution(TOPSIS)classification assessment commonly used in the environmental data domain.This study provides a reliable and rich source of training data for species introduction site selection systems and makes a significant contribution to ecological and sustainable development.

文摘Water splitting hinges crucially on the availability of electrocatalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction.The surface reconstruction has been widely observed in perovskite catalysts,and the reconstruction degree has been often correlated with the activity enhancement.Here,a systematic study on the roles of Fe substitution in activation of perovskite LaNiO_(3)is reported.The substituting Fe content influences both current change tendency and surface reconstruction degree.LaNi_(0.9)Fe_(0.1)O_(3)is found exhibiting a volcano-peak intrinsic activity in both pristine and reconstructed among all substituted perovskites in the LaNi_(1-x)Fe_(x)O_(3)(x=0.00,0.10,0.25,0.50,0.75,1.00)series.The reconstructed LaNi_(0.9)Fe_(0.1)O_(3)shows a higher intrinsic activity than most reported NiFe-based catalysts.Besides,density functional theory calculations reveal that Fe substitution can lower the O 2p level,which thus stabilize lattice oxygen in LaNi0.9Fe0.1O3 and ensure its long-term stability.Furthermore,it is vital interesting that activity of the reconstructed catalysts relied more on the surface chemistry rather than the reconstruction degree.The effect of Fe on the degree of surface reconstruction of the perovskite is decoupled from that on its activity enhancement after surface reconstruction.This finding showcases the importance to customize the surface chemistry of reconstructed catalysts for water oxidation.

文摘Structural reconstruction of electrocatalysts plays a pivotal role in catalytic performances for CO_(2)reduction reaction(CO_(2)RR),whereas the behavior is by far superficially understood.Here,we report that CO_(2)accessibility results in a universal self-adaptive structural reconstruction from Cu_(2)O to Cu@CuxO composites,ending with feeding gas-dependent microstructures and catalytic performances.The CO_(2)-rich atmosphere favors reconstruction for CO_(2)RR,whereas the CO_(2)-deficient one prefers that for hydrogen evolution reaction.With the assistance of spectroscopic analysis and theoretical calculations,we uncover a CO_(2)-induced passivation behavior by identifying a reductionresistant but catalytic active Cu(I)-rich amorphous layer stabilized by*CO intermediates.Additionally,we find extra CO production is indispensable for the robust production of C2H4.An inverse correlation between durability and FECO/FEC2H4 is disclosed,suggesting that the selfstabilization process involving the absorption of*CO intermediates on Cu(I)sites is essential for durable electrolysis.Guided by this insight,we design hollow Cu_(2)O nanospheres for durable and selective CO_(2)RR electrolysis in producing C2H4.Our work recognizes the previously overlooked passivation reconstruction and self-stabilizing behavior and highlights the critical role of the local atmosphere in modulating reconstruction and catalytic processes.
文摘The surgical approach for patellar instability usually refers to reconstruction of the medial patellofemoral ligament associated with an osteotomy of the tibial tuberosity or a trochleoplasty when required.The medial patellotibial ligament and the medial patellomeniscal ligament are secondary stabilizers of the patella.Despite this,both the medial patellotibial and patellofemoral ligaments aid in patellar rotation and tilt when the knee is flexed beyond 45°.The medial patellotibial ligament plays a particularly important role in the final stages of stretching in extension and between 40 degrees to 90 degrees of flexion.The clinical relevance and surgical indications for medial patellotibial ligament reconstruction associated with medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction are still controversial.This editorial explores the surgical indications and clinical results for medial patellotibial ligament reconstruction to improve readers’understanding of this technique,especially because reported clinical outcomes have remained sparse.
文摘Monsoon has an important impact on the development of vegetation that subsequently has significant influence on the evolution of plant consumers.The diversities of forest dwellers or herbivores follow the evolution of the vegetation,and it is therefore possible to take such diversities as forest or vegetation dynamic proxies.The present work selected 36 Pleistocene faunas of large mammals from monsoon-dominated provinces in China as materials and calculated the diversities of forest dwellers and herbivores with different approaches,as well as the consensus gradient coefficients of all the selected faunas in different flora regionalized subkingdoms.The results show that with the evolution and transitions of the East Asian summer and winter monsoon intensities,the forest vitality decreased while steppe vitality increased gradually in a fluctuated way from the Early Pleistocene to the Late Pleistocene,especially in the provinces north of the Qinling-Huaihe Line.The analyses of such diversities of the faunas can help to determine the forest dynamic proxies.Moreover,the correlation of such proxies to loess-paleosol sequences and marine isotope stages can in turn help to improve the accuracy of dating fauna ages and paleoenvironment reconstruction.

文摘The conversion of urea-containing wastewater into clean hydrogen energy has gained increasing attention.However,challenges remain,particularly with sluggish catalytic kinetics and limited long-term stability of urea oxidation reaction(UOR).Herein,we report the loosely porous CoOOH nano-architecture(CoOOH LPNAs)with hydrophilic surface and abundant oxygen vacancies(Ov)on carbon fiber paper(CFP)by electrochemical reconstruction of the CoP nanoneedles precursor.The resulting three-dimensional electrode exhibited an impressively low potential of 1.38 V at 1000 mA·cm^(−2) and excellent durability for UOR.Furthermore,when tested in an anion exchange membrane(AEM)electrolyzer,it required only 1.53 V at 1000 mA·cm^(−2) for industrial urea-assisted water splitting and operated stably for 100 h without degrada-tion.Experimental and theoretical investigations revealed that rich oxygen vacancies effectively modulate the electronic structure of the CoOOH while creating unique Co3-triangle sites with Co atoms close together.As a result,the adsorption and desorption processes of reactants and intermediates in UOR could be finely tuned,thereby significantly reducing ther-modynamic barriers.Additionally,the superhydrophilic self-supported nanoarray structure facilitated rapid gas bubble release,improving the overall efficiency of the reaction and preventing potential catalyst detachment caused by bubble accumulation,thereby improving both catalytic activity and stability at high current densities.
