文摘Dimethylphenols serve as important intermediates in synthesizing pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals,yet traditional distillation struggles to separate their isomers due to minimal boiling point differences,and the development of melt crystallization is hampered by lacking solid–liquid equilibrium (SLE) data for some isomers.Therefore,the SLE data of both binary and ternary mixtures of 2,3-dimethylphenol (2,3-DMP),3,5-dimethylphenol (3,5-DMP),and 3,4-dimethylphenol (3,4-DMP) were determined by using differential scanning calorimetry in this work.Additionally,crystallographic analysis was conducted to investigate the thermodynamic characteristics of these mixtures.The experimental results indicated that all the systems investigated in this research exhibited eutectic behavior.The experimentally obtained SLE data were well correlated with the Wilson and non-random two-liquid models.The excess thermodynamic functions were calculated to analyze the types and intensities of the molecular interactions occurring in the mixtures.Furthermore,this study developed a model for the correlation between the theoretical crystallization yield and the actual cooling yield and final yield in melt crystallization.This study has furnished reliable data essential for developing and optimizing the melt crystallization process of mixtures of 2,3-DMP,3,5-DMP,and 3,4-DMP.

文摘Arc faults within the transformers can generate sudden pressure surges,constituting significant hazards that may precipitate oil tank explosions and severely compromise power system stability.Conventional power−frequency arc discharge experiments encounter limitations in isolating pressure wave characteristics due to persistent gas generation and arc reignition.To circumvent these challenges,an oil-immersed impulse voltage discharge platform was conceived and engineered to investigate pressure wave propagation dynamics.A pressure numerical simulation model and theoretical model of oil−solid interface reflection and refraction were subsequently established to elucidate the pressure propagation mechanism.The experimental and simulation results show that the pressure wave generated by pulsed arc discharge in oil propagates radially in the form of spherical waves.Due to the viscous loss and wave front expansion of transformer oil,the peak pressure decays exponentially with distance,with a decay coefficientβ=1.15.When pressure waves encounter metal obstacles inside transformer oil,there are two propagation paths:direct transmission through and multiple reflections through,and a mode transformation of pressure waves occurs at the oil−solid interface,mainly propagating through obstacles in the form of transverse waves.This work quantitatively delineates the energy pressure wave coupling,propagation dynamics,and attenuation mechanisms,providing critical insights for assessing and mitigating arc fault-induced transformer explosion risks.

文摘Achieving high energy and power densities is currently a core challenge in the fabrication of energy storage materials.Although numerous high-capacity materials have been developed,conventional planar electrodes cannot achieve high active material loading and efficient ion/electron transport simultaneously.By contrast,three-dimensional(3D)structures have attracted increasing interest because of their capacity to enhance active material utilization,shorten ion and electron transport pathways,reduce interfacial impedance,and provide spatial accommodation for volume expansion.Additive manufacturing(AM)technology effectively fabricates energy-storage materials with 3D structures by accurately constructing complex 3D structures via layer-by-layer deposition.Recent studies have employed AM to construct ordered 3D electrodes that can optimize ion/electron transport,regulate electric field distribution,or improve the electrode-electrolyte interface,thereby contributing to enhanced kinetic performance and cycling stability.This review systematically summarizes the applications of several AM technologies in the fabrication of energy storage materials and analyzes their respective advantages and limitations.Subsequently,the advantages of AM technology in the fabrication of energy storage materials and several major optimization strategies are comprehensively discussed.Finally,the major challenges and potential applications of AM technology in energy storage material optimization are discussed.

文摘Zn-Mn alloys are regarded as promising biodegradable metals for orthopedic applications owing to their moderate degradation rates and favorable osteogenic properties.However,the presence of a substantial number of second-phase particles in Zn-based alloys might induce severe localized degradation via micro-coupling corrosion,thereby compromising the mechanical integrity of the alloy during in vivo tissue regeneration.In this study,high pressure solid solution(HPSS)treatment was conducted at 5 GPa and 380℃ for 1 h to fabricate Zn-0.5 Mn alloys.Microstructural characterization revealed that the HPSS treatment facilitated the formation of a supersaturated solid solution by completely dissolving theζ-MnZn_(13) phase into theα-Zn matrix.The resultant strengthening mechanisms,including supersaturated solid solution strengthening,grain-size strengthening,and dislocation strengthening,collectively enhanced the compressive yield strength(σ_(cys))of the Zn-0.5 Mn alloy to about 183.7 MPa,approximately three times that of the as-cast(AC)Zn-0.5 Mn alloy.Moreover,compared with the AC alloy,the HPSS Zn-0.5 Mn alloy exhibited uniform degradation behavior with a markedly reduced degradation rate.
文摘Artificial intelligence(AI)is increasingly recognized as a transformative force in the field of solid organ transplantation.From enhancing donor-recipient matching to predicting clinical risks and tailoring immunosuppressive therapy,AI has the potential to improve both operational efficiency and patient outcomes.Despite these advancements,the perspectives of transplant professionals-those at the forefront of critical decision-making-remain insufficiently explored.To address this gap,this study utilizes a multi-round electronic Delphi approach to gather and analyses insights from global experts involved in organ transplantation.Participants are invited to complete structured surveys capturing demographic data,professional roles,institutional practices,and prior exposure to AI technologies.The survey also explores perceptions of AI’s potential benefits.Quantitative responses are analyzed using descriptive statistics,while open-ended qualitative responses undergo thematic analysis.Preliminary findings indicate a generally positive outlook on AI’s role in enhancing transplantation processes,particularly in areas such as donor matching and post-operative care.These mixed views reflect both optimism and caution among professionals tasked with integrating new technologies into high-stakes clinical workflows.By capturing a wide range of expert opinions,the findings will inform future policy development,regulatory considerations,and institutional readiness frameworks for the integration of AI into organ transplantation.
文摘Background:In preclinical research,tumor growth inhibition in subcutaneous models is frequently employed to evaluate therapeutic efficacy;however,such models often lack clinical translatability.Methods:To better approximate clinical reality,taking the case of doxorubicin treatment,we utilized an orthotopic transplant and resection(OtR)strategy to systematically assess the effects of neoadjuvant chemotherapy,adjuvant chem-otherapy,and their combination on tumor growth,recurrence,and malignant progression.Results:Surprisingly,none of the treatments improved mouse survival,with adjuvant therapy even shortening it.Although neoadjuvant chemotherapy delayed preopera-tive tumor growth,and all regimens reduced recurrence rates,none effectively pre-vented metastasis.Furthermore,all treatment groups exhibited weight loss,indicative of chemotherapy-induced cachexia.Conclusions:Collectively,these findings demonstrate that reduced tumor growth in preclinical mouse models does not necessarily translate into overall survival benefit.Our results emphasize the critical importance of prioritizing metastasis prevention over tumor growth inhibition as a key efficacy endpoint in antitumor drug evaluation.

文摘The development of high-performance solid electrolytes is pivotal for advancing solid-state battery technologies.In this work,we design an oxysulfide-based solid electrolyte Na MgPO_(3)S by combining bond valence theory and density functional theory calculations.The material features a wide band gap of 4.0 eV and a considerable reduced Na^(+)migration barrier of 0.44 eV,a 1.26-eV decrease compared to pristine Na MgPO_(4)(~1.70 eV).Ab initio molecular dynamics simulations further reveal significantly enhanced ionic conductivity in the oxysulfide-based system compared to the pristine oxide structure.In addition,the calculated decomposition energy indicates that the modified material exhibits good moisture stability.Our findings suggest that sulfur-doping strategy can simultaneously achieve improved ionic conductivity and high moisture stability in oxide solid electrolytes,which could pave the way for designing high-performance solid electrolytes.

文摘Physics-informed neural networks(PINNs)have emerged as a promising class of scientific machine learning techniques that integrate governing physical laws into neural network training.Their ability to enforce differential equations,constitutive relations,and boundary conditions within the loss function provides a physically grounded alternative to traditional data-driven models,particularly for solid and structural mechanics,where data are often limited or noisy.This review offers a comprehensive assessment of recent developments in PINNs,combining bibliometric analysis,theoretical foundations,application-oriented insights,and methodological innovations.A biblio-metric survey indicates a rapid increase in publications on PINNs since 2018,with prominent research clusters focused on numerical methods,structural analysis,and forecasting.Building upon this trend,the review consolidates advance-ments across five principal application domains,including forward structural analysis,inverse modeling and parameter identification,structural and topology optimization,assessment of structural integrity,and manufacturing processes.These applications are propelled by substantial methodological advancements,encompassing rigorous enforcement of boundary conditions,modified loss functions,adaptive training,domain decomposition strategies,multi-fidelity and transfer learning approaches,as well as hybrid finite element–PINN integration.These advances address recurring challenges in solid mechanics,such as high-order governing equations,material heterogeneity,complex geometries,localized phenomena,and limited experimental data.Despite remaining challenges in computational cost,scalability,and experimental validation,PINNs are increasingly evolving into specialized,physics-aware tools for practical solid and structural mechanics applications.

文摘To elucidate the accelerated degradation mechanisms of metallic interconnects in operational solid oxide fuel cells,the oxidation behavior of FSS430 ferritic stainless steel under the coupling of simultaneous electrical current and high-temperature exposure is investigated.Isothermal thermogravimetric analysis was employed to quantify oxidation kinetics,complemented by microstructural characterization using X-ray diffraction,scanning electron microscopy with energy-dispersive spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy.Experimental results demonstrate that the applied current dramatically enhances oxidation rates,increasing specific mass gain from 0.25 mg/cm^(2)(0 A/cm^(2))to 5.20 mg/cm^(2)(0.2 A/cm^(2))and oxide scale thickness from 1.87 to 15.62μm after 200 h.This acceleration originates from current-induced electromigration forces that promote cationic transport through the oxide layer.The quantitative relationships between current density and oxidation parameters are established,enabling predictive modeling of interconnector degradation in solid oxide fuel cell(SOFC)systems.

文摘Lithium-ion batteries(LIBs),while dominant in energy storage due to high energy density and cycling stability,suffer from severe capacity decay,rate capability degradation,and lithium dendrite formation under low-temperature(LT)operation.Therefore,a more comprehensive and systematic understanding of LIB behavior at LT is urgently required.This review article comprehensively reviews recent advancements in electrolyte engineering strategies aimed at improving the low-temperature operational capabilities of LIBs.The study methodically examines critical performance-limiting mechanisms through fundamental analysis of four primary challenges:insufficient ionic conductivity under cryogenic conditions,kinetically hindered charge transfer processes,Li+transport limitations across the solidelectrolyte interphase(SEI),and uncontrolled lithium dendrite growth.The work elaborates on innovative optimization approaches encompassing lithium salt molecular design with tailored dissociation characteristics,solvent matrix optimization through dielectric constant and viscosity regulation,interfacial engineering additives for constructing low-impedance SEI layers,and gel-polymer composite electrolyte systems.Notably,particular emphasis is placed on emerging machine learning-guided electrolyte formulation strategies that enable high-throughput virtual screening of constituent combinations and prediction of structure-property relationships.These artificial intelligence-assisted rational design frameworks demonstrate significant potential for accelerating the development of next-generation LT electrolytes by establishing quantitative composition-performance correlations through advanced data-driven methodologies.

文摘Immunotherapy has brought unprecedented breakthroughs to advanced malignant tumors,yet the immune microenvironment shaped by the tumor stroma has often been underestimated in the traditional focus on the“immune checkpoint-T cell”axis.Collagen not only constitutes a mechanical barrier that distinguishes between the periphery and core of solid tumors but also systematically remodels the orientation of metabolism,vasculature,and immune cell phenotypic plasticity through its spatial density,fiber arrangement,and crosslinking patterns(F igure 1)[1,2].Abundant evidence suggests that over-accumulated types I and III collagen drive CD8+T cell exhaustion,NK cell functional inhibition,and tumor-associated macrophage polarization through ligand-receptor networks involving LAIR-1,DDR2,andβ1/β3 integrins[3-6].Mechanistically,collagen engagement of LAIR-1 delivers inhibitory signals in effector lymphocytes,promoting dysfunctional or exhausted states[7-9].In parallel,collagen-β1/β3 integrin signaling activates mechanotransduction pathways(e.g.,FAK/SRC),reducing T-cell motility and immune-tumor contact,while DDR2 activation supports matrix-remodeling programs that limit lymphocyte trafficking.

文摘Electrically controlled solid propellant(ECSP)offers multiple ignition and adjustable burning rate,serving as fuel for next-generation intelligent propulsion systems.To further enhance the combustion performance of ECSP,a method utilizing electrochemical and thermal decomposition catalysts has been proposed.In this work,we investigated the combustion characteristics of hydroxylamine nitrate(HAN)-based ECSP incorporating cerium oxide(CeO_(2))and graphene oxide(GO)by using an electrically controlled combustion test system.Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS)and linear sweep voltammetry(LSV)were used to measure the electrical conductibility and overpotential of ECSP with various additives,and Tafel curves were calculated.Thermogravimetric analysis coupled with differential scanning calorimetry(TG-DSC)was employed to investigate the thermal decomposition behavior of ECSP.While the addition of CeO_(2) and GO reduced the conductivity of ECSP,both catalysts exhibited strong electrocatalytic properties and facilitated the thermal decomposition of ECSP.Between two catalysts,GO demonstrated superior electrochemical catalytic performance but weaker thermal decomposition catalytic ability than CeO_(2).The addition of catalysts significantly enhanced the combustion performance of HAN-based ECSP.Specifically,the ignition delay time was shortened by 10%~20%.CeO_(2) raised the burning rate by approximately 20%but GO exhibited a remarkable boost of 40%in burning rate at high voltage.The combination of GO and PVA produced a flame-retardant substance that negatively impacted the ignition delay of ECSP and resulted in a smaller increase in the burning rate of ECSP at low ignition voltages.

文摘High-nickel cathode,LiNi0.8Co0.1Mn0.1O_(2)(NCM811),and sulfide-solid electrolyte are a promising combination for all-solid-state lithium batteries(ASSLBs).However,this combination faces the issue of interfacial instability between the cathode and electrolyte.Given the surface alkalinity of NCM811,we propose a strategy to construct a solid-polymer-electrolyte(SPE)interphase on NCM811 surface by leveraging the surface alkaline residues to nucleophilically initiate the in-situ ring-opening polymerization of cyclic organic molecules.As a proof-of-concept,this study demonstrates that the ring-opening copolymerization of 1,3-dioxolane and maleic anhydride produces a homogeneous,compact,and conformal SPE layer on NCM811 surface to prevent the cathode from contact and reaction with Li6PS5Cl solid-state electrolyte.Consequently,the SPE-modified-NCM811 in ASSLBs exhibits high capacities of 193.5 mA h g^(-1) at 0.2 C,160.9 mA h g^(-1) at 2.0 C and 112.3 mA h g^(-1) at 10 C,and particularly,excellent long-term cycling stabilities over 11000 cycles with a 71.95%capacity retention at 10 C at 25℃,as well as a remained capacity of 117.9 mA h g^(-1) after 8000 cycles at 30 C at 60℃,showing a great application prospect.This study provides a new route for creating electrochemically and structurally stable solid-solid interfaces for ASSLBs.

文摘This study reported the synthesis of magnetic solid solutions V2(A_(x)B_(y)Sn_(1-x-y))C(where A and B are Mn,Fe,or Co)MAX phases.These materials were prepared by incorporating magnetic elements into the V_(2)SnC MAX phase via pressure-less sintering at 1000℃for 3 hours.XRD analysis reveals that the composition with x=y=0.2 exhibits a shift of diffraction peaks to higher angles,indicating lattice parameter changes,and achieves the highest phase purity with the maximum solid solution limit,further increases in the dopant content led to the formation of impurities.While the solid solution of magnetic elements preserves the characteristic layered structure of the MAX phase,it successfully induces magnetic properties.The magnetic transition temperatures for these solid solutions ranges from 61 to 200 K.Specifically,V_(2)(Mn_(x)Co_(y)Sn_(1-x-y))C demonstrated hard magnetic characteristics,with a high saturation magnetization(6.536 emu/g)and large remanence(4.236 emu/g).In contrast,V_(2)(Mn_(x)Fe_(y)Sn_(1-x-y))C and V2(Fe_(x)Co_(y)Sn_(1-x-y))C exhibits soft magnetic behavior,evidenced by their narrow hysteresis loops and low coercivity.Their saturation magnetization values are 3.80 and 1.784 emu/g,respectively.The distinctly"S"-shaped hysteresis loop of V_(2)(Fe_(x)Co_(y)Sn_(1-x-y))C further confirms its soft magnetic nature.

文摘This study focused on improving the cathode performance of Ba_(0.6)Sr_(0.4)Co_(0.85)Nb_(0.15)O_(3-δ)(BSCN)-based perovskite materials through molybdenum(Mo)doping.Pure BSCN and Mo-modified-BSCN—Ea_(0.6)Sr_(0.4)Co_(0.85)Nb_(0.1)Mo_(0.05)O_(3-δ)(B S CNM_(0.05)),Ba_(0.6)Sr_(0.4)Co_(0.85)Nb_(0.05)Mo_(0.1)O_(3-δ)(BSCNM_(0.1)),and Ba_(0.6)Sr_(0.4)Co_(0.85)Mo_(0.15)O_(3-δ)(BSCM)—with Mo doping contents of 5mol%,10mol%,and15mol%,respectively,were successfully prepared using the sol-gel method.The effects of Mo doping on the crystal structure,conductivity,thermal expansion coefficient,oxygen reduction reaction(ORR)activity,and electrochemical performance were systematically evaluated using X-ray diffraction analysis,thermally induced characterization,electrochemical impedance spectroscopy,and single-cell performance tests.The results revealed that Mo doping could improve the conductivity of the materials,suppress their thermal expansion effects,and significantly improve the electrochemical performance.Surface chemical state analysis using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy revealed that 5mol%Mo doping could facilitate a high adsorbed oxygen concentration leading to enhanced ORR activity in the materials.Density functional theory calculations confirmed that Mo doping promoted the ORR activity in the materials.At an operating temperature of 600℃,the BSCNM_(0.05)cathode material exhibited significantly enhanced electrochemical impedance characteristics,with a reduced area specific resistance of 0.048Ω·cm~2,which was lower than that of the undoped BSCN matrix material by 32.39%.At the same operating temperature,an anode-supported single cell using a BSCNM_(0.05)cathode achieved a peak power density of 1477 mW·cm^(-2),which was 30.71%,56.30%,and 171.50%higher than those of BSCN,BSCNM_(0.1),and B SCM,respectively.The improved ORR activity and electrochemical performance of BSCNM_(0.05)indicate that it can be used as a cathode material in low-temperature solid oxide fuel cells.
