By combining energy and mass balance equations with heat and mass transfer coefficients and air psychrometric correlations, the model provides insights into the impact of design and operational parameters on the exchanger cooling performance. Validated against an established numerical model, it accurately simulates cooling behavior with a Root Mean Square Deviation of 0.43 - 1.18˚C under varying inlet air conditions. The results show that tube geometry, including equivalent diameter, flatness ratio, and length significantly influences cooling outcomes. Smaller diameters enhance wet-bulb effectiveness but reduce cooling capacity, while increased flatness and length improve both. For example, extending the flatness ratio of a 15 mm diameter, 0.6 m long tube from 1 (circular) to 4 raises the exchange surface area from 0.028 to 0.037 m2, increasing wet-bulb effectiveness from 60% to 71%. Recommended diameters range from 5 mm for tubes under 0.5 m to 1 cm for tubes 0.5 to 1 m in length. Optimal air velocities depend on tube length: 1 m/s for tubes under 0.8 m, 1.5 m/s for lengths of 0.8 to 1.2 m, and up to 2 m/s for longer tubes. This model offers a practical alternative to complex numerical and CFD methods, with potential applications in cooling tower optimization for thermal and nuclear power plants and geothermal heat exchangers.展开更多

The model is validated over an impact velocity range of 180–1247 m/s. The entire penetration process is divided into three stages: the crater formation stage, the steady stage, and the shear stage. A thicknessdependent dynamic cavity expansion resistance model is first introduced to quantitatively describe the axial resistance experienced by the projectile during the tip-entry and steady stages. Subsequently, a thickness-related damage parameter is proposed to refine the resistance expression during the transition from the steady stage to the shear stage, thereby eliminating discontinuities in resistance across stages. When the projectile fully perforates the target, the model predicts a gradual decay of resistance to zero as the residual ligament thickness vanishes, which better reflects the actual physical behavior. The model is validated using four sets of experimental conditions. In addition, to illustrate the model's applicability more intuitively, a numerical simulation case from the literature is reproduced, and the resulting resistance-time curve is compared with the model output. The results demonstrate that the proposed model agrees well with experimental data in terms of residual velocity, ballistic limit, and penetration resistance. Finally, a method for adjusting the threshold parameter within the resistance function is provided, and the influence of this coefficient on the model predictions is discussed.展开更多

文摘For the solution of peridynamic equations of motion,a meshless approach is typically used instead of utilizing semi-analytical or mesh-based approaches.In contrast,the literature has limited analytical solutions.This study develops a novel analytical solution for one-dimensional peridynamic models,considering the effect of damping.After demonstrating the details of the analytical solution,various demonstration problems are presented.First,the free vibration of a damped system is considered for under-damped and critically damped conditions.Peridynamic solutions and results from the classical theory are compared against each other,and excellent agreement is observed between the two approaches.Next,forced vibration analyses of undamped and damped conditions are performed.In addition,the effect of horizon size is investigated.It is shown that for smaller horizon sizes,peridynamic results agree well with classical results,whereas results from these two approaches deviate from each other as the horizon size increases.

文摘The gastrointestinal tract of felines is inhabited by an active and intricate population of microorganisms whose alteration creates disturbances in the immune response and can affect health and disease states.Studies using vari‑ous analytical methods have identified peculiar trends in various illnesses,with Firmicutes being the most prevalent phylum,followed by Bacteroidetes,Proteobacteria,and Actinobacteria.However,more Firmicutes and fewer Bac‑teroidetes have been observed in cats infected with Feline coronavirus.Alterations in the composition of these gut microbiota can be solved by microbiota modification through dietary fiber,probiotics,and fecal microbiota transplan‑tation.Therefore,it is critical to understand the composition of the gut microbiota,the changes in and roles of the gut environment,and the importance of these concepts for overall health while considering the exchange of microbes between humans and domestic animals.This review provides comprehensive information on feline gut microbiota composition,modulation,and analytic methods used for characterizing the gut microbiota.

文摘Enhancing ecological security for sustainable social,economic,and environmental development is a key focus of current research and a practical necessity for ecological management.However,the integration of retrospective ecological security assessments with future trend predictions and fine-scale targeted regulations remains inadequate,limiting effective ecological governance and sustainable regional development.Guided by Social-Economic-Natural Complex Ecosystems(SENCE)theory,this study proposes an analytical framework that integrates ecological security assessment,prediction,and zoning management.The Daqing River Basin,a typical river basin in the North China Plain,was selected as a case study.The results indicate that overall ecological security in the Daqing River Basin improved from a“Moderate”level to a“Relatively Safe”level between 2000 and 2020;however,spatial heterogeneity persisted,with higher ecological security in northwestern and eastern regions and lower ecological security in the central region.Approximately 62% of the Basin experienced an improvement in ecological security level,except in the major urban areas of Beijing,Tianjin,and Hebei,where ecological security deteriorated.From 2025 to 2040,the overall ecological security of the Daqing River Basin is expected to improve and remain at the“Relatively Safe”level.However,spatial heterogeneity will be further aggravated as the ecological security of major urban areas continues to deteriorate.Ecological security management zones and regulation strategies are proposed at the regional and county scales to emphasize integrated regulation for the entire basin and major urban areas.The proposed analytical framework provides valuable insights for advancing theoretical research on ecological security.The case study offers a practical reference for ecological security enhancement in river basins and other regions facing significant human-land conflicts.

文摘This study presents a theoretical analysis of the perforation process of finite-thickness metal plates(with a thickness ratio of T_0/D = 0.6–1.5) under normal impact by spherical-nosed projectiles. The model is validated over an impact velocity range of 180–1247 m/s. The entire penetration process is divided into three stages: the crater formation stage, the steady stage, and the shear stage. A thicknessdependent dynamic cavity expansion resistance model is first introduced to quantitatively describe the axial resistance experienced by the projectile during the tip-entry and steady stages. Subsequently, a thickness-related damage parameter is proposed to refine the resistance expression during the transition from the steady stage to the shear stage, thereby eliminating discontinuities in resistance across stages. When the projectile fully perforates the target, the model predicts a gradual decay of resistance to zero as the residual ligament thickness vanishes, which better reflects the actual physical behavior. The model is validated using four sets of experimental conditions. In addition, to illustrate the model's applicability more intuitively, a numerical simulation case from the literature is reproduced, and the resulting resistance-time curve is compared with the model output. The results demonstrate that the proposed model agrees well with experimental data in terms of residual velocity, ballistic limit, and penetration resistance. Finally, a method for adjusting the threshold parameter within the resistance function is provided, and the influence of this coefficient on the model predictions is discussed.

文摘Objective Blood culture remains the gold standard for diagnosing bloodstream infections.Clinical laboratories must ensure the quality of blood culture processes from receipt to obtaining definitive results.We examined laboratory analytical indicators associated with positive blood culture results.Methods Blood cultures collected from Peking Union Medical College Hospital between January 1,2020,and December 31,2022,were retrospectively analyzed.The mode of transportation(piping logistics delivery vs.staff),source of blood cultures(outpatient/emergency department vs.inpatient department),rotation of personnel,and time of reception(8:00–19:59 vs.20:00–07:59)were compared between blood culture-positive and-negative results.Results Between 2020 and 2022,the total positive rate of blood culture was 8.07%.The positive rate of blood cultures in the outpatient/emergency department was significantly higher than that in the inpatient department(12.46%vs.5.83%;P<0.0001).The time-to-detection of blood cultures was significantly affected by the delivery mode and personnel rotation.The blood culture positive rate of the total pre-analytical time within 1 h was significantly higher than that within 1–2 h or>2 h(P<0.0170).Conclusion Laboratory analytical indicators such as patient source,transportation mode,and personnel rotation significantly impacted the positive detection rate or time of blood culture.

文摘Progressive modifications in submarine topography and shorelines drastically affect tidal dynamics in bays.This study examines the influence of topographic slope,bay length,and driving forces on tidal currents following land reclamation.Tidal equa-tions are analytically solved using infinite series,deriving expressions for tidal levels and currents in narrow bays with varying topog-raphy.Tidal levels,influenced by topographic variations,are characterized by amplitude and phase lag of their complex amplitude.These levels demonstrate high sensitivity to longitudinal slope variations but remain relatively stable under lateral slope changes.Un-der constant topographic slopes,even minor changes in bay length can drastically modify amplitude and phase lag,highlighting the sensitivity of tidal dynamics to geometric alterations.Tidal velocity notably increases with steeper longitudinal slopes and modestly rises with elevated lateral slopes.However,changes in longitudinal and lateral slopes do not considerably alter flow patterns.While external forces predominantly regulate tidal velocity with negligible effects on flow patterns,endogenous resistance influences veloci-ty but minimally impacts flow structure.These findings enhance the understanding of tidal responses to geometric and topographic changes,providing valuable guidance for land reclamation projects and coastal management strategies.

文摘This study presents a novel methodology to obtain an approximate analytical solution for an isotropic homo-geneous elastic medium with displacement and traction boundary conditions.The solution is derived through solving a specific numerical problem under the scope of the linear finite element method(LFEM),so the method is termed computational method for analytical solutions with finite elements(CMAS-FE).The primary objective of the CMAS-FE is to construct analytical expressions for displacements and reaction forces at nodes,as well as for strains and stresses at elemental quadrature points,all of which are formulated as infinite series solutions of various orders of Poisson’s ratios.Like the conventional LFEM,the CMAS-FE forms global sparse linear equations,but the Young’s modulus and Poisson’s ratio remain variables(or symbols).By employing a direct inverse method to solve these symbolic linear systems,an analytical expression of the displacement field can be constructed.The CMAS-FE is validated via patch and bending tests,which demonstrate convergence with mesh and term refine-ment.Furthermore,the CMAS-FE is applied to obtain the bending stiffness of a beam structure and to estimate an approximate stress intensity factor for a straight crack within a square-shaped plate.

文摘In this study,an analytical investigation is carried out to assess the impact of magnetic field-dependent(MFD)viscosity on the momentum and heat transfers inside the boundary layer of a Jeffrey fluid flowing over a horizontally elongating sheet,while taking into account the effects of ohmic dissipation.By applying similarity transformations,the original nonlinear governing equations with partial derivatives are transformed into ordinary differential equations.Analytical expressions for the momentum and energy equations are derived,incorporating the influence of MFD viscosity on the Jeffrey fluid.Then the impact of different parameters is assessed,including magnetic viscosity,magnetic interaction,retardation time,Deborah number,and Eckert number,on the velocity and temperature profiles in the boundary layer.The findings reveal that an increase in magnetic viscosity leads to a decrease in the local Nusselt number,thereby impairing heat transfer.Moreover,a higher retardation time enhances the local Nusselt number by thinning the momentum and thermal boundary layers,while a higher Deborah number decreases the local Nusselt number due to the reduction in fluid viscosity.

文摘Flume experiments play a pivotal role in studying wave propagation,with wave elements typically assumed to remain constant in the perpendicular direction.However,evident cross wave phenomena were observed within flumes under certain conditions.This paper presents new analytical solutions for both primary and cross waves on double shoals in a flume via linear shallow-water equations,which may be used to idealize dynamic experimental configurations of coral reefs.The primary waves on double shoals are described by the associated Legendre functions,whereas the ultimate solutions are derived by considering the incident and reflected waves in front of a bathymetry and the transmitted waves positioned behind it.The effects of the angular frequency and topographic parameters on the primary waves are subsequently analyzed.Cross waves on double shoals constitute a type of topographically trapped wave whose solutions are formulated by combining the first and second types of the associated Legendre functions.The angular frequency is not only determined by the wavenumber but also influenced by the topographic parameters.Numerical experiments are conducted to investigate the generation mechanism of cross waves.The consistency between the numerical results and analytical solutions confirms the validity of the new analytical framework of cross waves on double shoals.
文摘Fluid imbibition from hydraulic fractures into shale formations is mainly affected by a combination of capillary forces and viscous resistance,both of which are closely related to the pore geometry.This study established five self-imbibition models with idealized pore structures and conducted a comparative analysis of these models.These models include circular,square,and equilateral triangular capillaries;a triangular star-shaped cross-section formed by three tangent spherical particles;and a traditional porous medium representation method.All these models are derived based on Newton’s second law,where capillary pressure is described by the Young-Laplace equation and viscous resistance is characterized by the Hagen-Poiret equation and Darcy’s law.All derived models predict that the fluid imbibition distance is proportional to the square root of time,in accordance with the classical Lucas-Washburn law.However,different pore structures exhibit significantly different characteristic imbibition rates.Compared to the single pore model,the conventional Darcy’s law-based model for porous media predicts significantly lower imbibition rates,which is consistent with the relatively slower uptake rates in actual shale nanoscale pore networks.These findings emphasize the important role played by pore geometry in fluid imbibition dynamics and further point to the need for optimizing pore structure to extend fluid imbibition duration in shale reservoirs in practical operations.

文摘Underhand cut-and-fill mining has been widely used in underground mining operations,especially when the rock mass or orebody is of poor quality or prone to rockburst due to high stress.In such cases,mining workers should carry out all production activities under the cemented backfill roof or sill mat instead of a highly fractured and unstable rock roof or a strong rock roof with a high potential of rockburst.Therefore,the stability and required strength of the sill mat are critical issues for mining engineers.In 1991,Mitchell considered that sill mat could fail by caving,sliding,rotation,and flexure.Mitchell also proposed an analytical solution to determine the minimum required strength of the sill mat for each type of failure based on two stiff or immobile rock walls.However,recent publications using numerical modeling and field measurements indicate that the compressive stresses in the sill mat induced by rock wall closure due to a stope excavation beneath the sill mat can be significant.It is thus highly necessary to investigate the required strength of the sill mat by considering rock wall closure.In this study,the crushing failure of sill mat due to rock wall closure generated by underground excavation and a new failure mode called"crushing and caving”is revealed by numerical modeling.An analytical solution corresponding to each failure mode is then developed to estimate the minimum required cohesion(cmin)of the sill mat.A criterion is also proposed to determine if the sill mat fails by crushing or crushing-and-caving failure.The proposed analytical solution does not involve any correction coefficients.The validity of the proposed analytical solution is demonstrated by numerical modeling.The proposed analytical solution can thus be employed to predict the cmin of sill mat subjected to wall closure generated by underlying stope excavation.

文摘For the longitudinal midcourse guidance problem of a cruise-glide integrated hypersonic vehicle(CGHV),an analytical method based on optimal control theory is proposed.This method constructs a guidance dynamics model for such vehicles,using aerodynamic load as the control variable,and introduces a framework for solving the guidance laws.This framework unifies the design process of guidance laws for both the glide and cruise phases.By decomposing the longitudinal guidance task into position control and velocity control,and minimizing energy consumption as the objective function,the method provides an analytical solution for velocity control load through the calculation of costate variables.This approach requires only the current state and terminal state parameters to determine the guidance law solution.Furthermore,by transforming path constraints into aerodynamic load constraints and solving backwards to obtain the angle of attack,bank angle,and throttle setting,this method ensures a smooth transition from the glide phase to the cruise phase,guaranteeing the successful completion of the guidance task.Finally,the effectiveness and practicality of the proposed method are validated through case simulations and analysis.
