文摘In this paper is presented a concept solution and acceptance test application procedure of deep pit protection structure,intended for three underground levels of residential building:A,B,C,D,block 10C,Budva,Montenegro.The anchored wall used consist of nongravity cantilevered walls with three levels of ground anchors.Nongravity cantilevered walls employ continuous walls constructed in slurry trenches(i.e.,slurry(diaphragm)walls),e.g vertical elements that are drilled to depths below the finished excavation grade.For those nongravity cantilevered walls,support is provided through the shear and bending stiffness of the vertical wall elements and passive resistance from the soil below the finished excavation grade.Anchored wall support relies on these components as well as lateral resistance provided by the ground anchors to resist horizontal pressures(e.g.,earth,water,external loads)acting on the wall.Anchored wall analysed and applied is temporary supporting structure necessary for the excavation and erection of the underground structure part up to ground surface level.Temporary ground anchors lifetime is up to two years.Dynamic loads are not considered.

文摘Experimental and theoretical studies of drag embedment plate anchors recently carried out in Tianjin University are summarized in this research paper, which involve a series of important topics relevant to the study of drag anchors. The techniques for measuring the trajectory and movement direction of drag anchors in soils, the techniques for measuring the moving embedment point and reverse eatenary shape of the embedded drag line, the penetration mechanism and kinematic behavior of drag anchors, the ultimate embedment depth of drag anchors, the movement direction of the anchor with an arbitrary fluke section, the reverse catenary properties of the embedded drag line, the interaetional properties between drag anchor and installation line, the kinematic model of drag anchors in seabed soils, and the analytical method for predicting the anchor trajectory in soils will all be examined. The present work remarkably reduces the uncertainties in design and analysis of drag embedment plate anchors, and is beneficial to improving the application of this new type of drag anchor in offshore engineering.
文摘The integration of the digital economy with the traditional sales industry has prompted the robust growth of e-commerce.Live-streaming e-commerce,as a novel business model,has gained immense popularity.However,is⁃sues of regulatory loopholes and inefficacy continue to surface.In live-streaming e-commerce,the head anchor,as host of the live-streaming rooms,wields significant influence in determining the goods to be showcased and marketed.Such influence expands risks such as infringement of intellectual property rights.Yet the uncertainty in law concerning the identity of head anchors results in a lack of accountability.Current norms are inadequate in constraining the group of head anchors.Drawing on the principles of risk control,the alignment between benefit and risk,and the theory of so⁃cial cost control,this paper argues that it is both justifiable and feasible to impose a duty to exercise reasonable care on head anchors.To effectively enshrine this duty in law,it is of great importance to redefine the mechanism of identifying the duty of care of head anchors in live-streaming e-commerce.In particular,the contents of the duty of care under⁃taken by head anchors and the consequences of breaching such a duty of care should be clarified.
文摘Beishan Rock Carvings in Chongqing,a renowned cultural heritage site in China,flourished during the Tang and Song dynasties and are often referred to as the“Stone Carving Art Museum of the Tang and Song Dynasties.”Cave 168 is a key component of the Beishan Rock Carvings.At present,several through-going cracks have developed in the roof of Cave 168,severely compromising the structural stability of the grotto.The early internal steel plate supports have suffered severe corrosion and can no longer provide effective reinforcement.In addition,the presence of steel columns obstructs visitor access and negatively affects the viewing experience.A new reinforcement method is urgently needed.Therefore,studying the deformation patterns of the structure is of critical importance.This study analyzes the stratigraphic parameters and fracture distribution of Cave 168,considering key influencing factors such as rainfall,self-weight,and the overlying Quaternary soil.On-site monitoring and physical model experiments were conducted to evaluate the changes in roof crack width and displacement before and after reinforcement with negative Poisson's ratio(NPR)anchor cables.The results reveal that the roof of Cave 168 contains several through-going cracks and numerous microcracks,which serve as infiltration channels for surface water.These accelerate the softening of the mudstone and pose a significant threat to the cave's structural safety.During the experiment,the main change in the crack exhibited a“semi-archshaped”propagation pattern.In the first ten minutes,as the rock transitioned from dry to moist conditions,a slight crack closure was observed.As rainfall continued,crack propagation accelerated.After rainfall ceased,crack width remained stable over a short period.Under NPR anchor support,the influence of rainfall on roof settlement was effectively mitigated,ensuring the safety and stability of the roof.The NPR anchors successfully limited the roof settlement to within 0.3 mm and provided effective control over both total and differential settlement.These findings offer valuable insights into the application of NPR anchor cables in the conservation of grotto heritage structures.

文摘Nickel-rich(Ni≥90%)layered oxides materials have emerged as a promising candidate for nextgeneration high-energy-density lithium-ion batteries(LIBs).However,their widespread application is hindered by structural fatigue and lattice oxygen loss.In this work,an epitaxial surface rock-salt nanolayer is successfully developed on the LiNi_(0.9)Co_(0.1)O_(2)sub-surface via heteroatom anchoring utilizing high-valence element molybdenum modification.This in-situ formed conformal buffer phase with a thickness of 1.2 nm effectively suppresses the continuous interphase side-reactions,and thus maintains the excellent structure integrity at high voltage.Furthermore,theoretical calculations indicate that the lattice oxygen reversibility in the anion framework of the optimized sample is obviously enhanced due to the higher content of O 2p states near the Fermi level than that of the pristine one.Meanwhile,the stronger Mo-O bond further reduces cell volume alteration,which improves the bulk structure stability of modified materials.Besides,the detailed charge compensation mechanism suggests that the average oxidation state of Ni is reduced,which induces more active Li+participating in the redox reactions,boosting the cell energy density.As a result,the uniquely designed cathode materials exhibit an extraordinary discharge capacity of 245.4 mAh g^(-1)at 0.1 C,remarkable rate performance of 169.3 mAh g^(-1)at 10 C at 4.5 V,and a high capacity retention of 70.5% after 1000 cycles in full cells at a high cut-off voltage of 4.4 V.This strategy provides an valuable insight into constructing distinctive heterostructure on highperformance Ni-rich layered cathodes for LIBs.

文摘The effect of vanadium(V)element on the microstructure and mechanical properties of anchor steel was explored by microstructural characterization and mechanical property tests of anchor steels with different V contents.The results indicated that the trace addition of V element can generate dispersed VC nanoparticles in the anchor steel and then refine microstructure by inhibiting austenite grain growth.The increase in V content leads to the formation of a larger amount of smaller VC nanoparticles and more refined microstructure.Moreover,the increasing V content in anchor steel causes the volume fraction of ferrite to increase and that of pearlite to decrease continuously,and even leads to the formation of bainite.Accompanied by the microstructure change,the V-treated anchor steels exhibit higher strength compared with the anchor steel without V addition.However,the increased hardness difference between ferrite and pearlite results in poor coordination of deformation between them,leading to a decrease in their plasticity.The impact toughness of anchor steel first increases but then significantly decreases with the increase in V content.The improvement in impact toughness of trace V-treated anchor steel benefits from the enhancement in the band structure after hot rolling,which consumes more energy during the vertical crack propagation process.However,when the V content further increases,the hard and brittle bainite in the anchor steel can facilitate crack initiation and propagation,ultimately resulting in a reduced toughness.

文摘The development of high-performance metal nanocluster catalysts is hindered by a fundamental stabilization-activity trade-off.Oxide supports often induce over-stabilization via insulating overlayers that block active sites,while conventional functionalized carbon supports suffer from thermodynamic instability and weak metal-support electronic coupling,leading to aggregation.Herein,a novel defectmediated covalent anchoring strategy is presented to immobilize transition metal(Pd,Ru,and Ir)NCs within ordered mesoporous carbon.This approach leverages intrinsic micropore defects to capture precursors and facilitate in-situ formation of direct metal-carbon covalent bonds.Controlled pyrolysis confines metal atom sintering into clusters within the mesopores,achieving high metal loading.This enrooted architectu re uniquely balances stability and activity:it avoids the excessive metal-carbon bonding detrimental to single-atom catalysts while maintaining sufficient,controllable interactions.The resulting Pd NCs catalyst exhibits exceptional hydrogen oxidation reaction activity,surpassing mass activity benchmarks of conventional Pt/C.Critically,this methodology decouples atomic-scale stabilization from catalytic site accessibility,resolving the long-standing activity-stability dilemma and providing a generalizable platform for fabricating stable,high-loading cluster catalysts with optimized electronic structures.

文摘The increasingly serious electromagnetic(EM)radiation and related pollution effects have gradually attracted people's attention in the information age.Hence,it's crucial to develop adaptive shielding materials with minimum EM waves(EMW)reflection.In this paper,Ag nanoparticles loaded mesoporous carbon hollow spheres(MCHS@Ag)were synthesized by chemical reduction method,and cellulose nanofibers(CNF)/MXene/MCHS@Ag homogeneous composites were prepared.The total EM interference shielding efficiency(SET)of CNF/MXene/MCHS@Ag composite film was 32.83 dB(at 12.4 GHz),and the absorption effectiveness(SEA)was improved to 26.6 dB,which was 63.1%and 195.5%higher than that of CNF/MXene/MCHS composite film.The low dielectric property of MCHS effectively optimized the impedance matching between the composites and air.The hollow porous structure prolonged the transmission path of EMW and increased the absorption loss of the composites.At the same time,Ag nanoparticles located the MCHS were helpful to construct the internal conductive path overcoming the damage of the conductive property caused by the low dielectric of MCHS.This research adopts a straightforward method to construct a lightweight,pliable,and mesoporous composites for EMI shielding,which serves a crucial role in the current era of severe EM pollution.

文摘The impacts of natural boulders carried by debris flows pose serious risks to the safety and reliability of structures and buildings.Natural boulders can be highly random and unpredictable.Consequently,boulder control during debris flows is crucial but difficult.Herein,an eco-friendly control system featuring anchoring natural boulders(NBs)with(negative Poisson's ratio)NPR anchor cables is proposed to form an NB-NPR baffle.A series of flume experiments are conducted to verify the effect of NB-NPR baffles on controlling debris flow impact.The deployment of NB-NPR baffles substantially influences the kinematic behavior of a debris flow,primarily in the form of changes in the depositional properties and impact intensities.The results show that the NB-NPR baffle matrix successfully controls boulder mobility and exhibits positive feedback on solid particle deposition.The NB-NPR baffle group exhibits a reduction in peak impact force ranging from 29%to 79%compared to that of the control group in the basic experiment.The NPR anchor cables play a significant role in the NB-NPR baffle by demonstrating particular characteristics,including consistent resistance,large deformation,and substantial energy absorption.The NB-NPR baffle innovatively utilizes the natural boulders in a debris flow gully by converting destructive boulders into constructive boulders.Overall,this research serves as a basis for future field experiments and applications.

文摘Weak structural planes commonly exist in underground engineering.These planes make anchor structures more prone to failure,threatening rock stability,threatening the safety and stability of underground engineering.Optical-Thermal-Acoustic(OTA)monitoring was applied during uniaxial compression tests on cross-layer anchored rock masses.The study revealed the mechanical properties,failure characteristics,and energy evolution of rock masses with different anchoring methods and bedding angles.Key findings:anchoring suppresses transverse deformation and tensile crack propagation,increasing elastic modulus and bearing capacity;anchored rock shows more intense acoustic emission but smaller infrared temperature changes;the structural plane angle controls the direction of crack extension and the evolution of the strain characteristics,and the rock is prone to instantaneous slip failure of the structural surface at 45°–75°,and the lower strength with significant IR change characteristics.Distinct OTA characteristics during rupture validate the method's reliability for rockburst early warning and intensity assessment.Moreover,based on the failure characteristics of cross-layer anchored rock masses,a shear failure criterion for anchored structural planes is established.This criterion enables prediction of rock mass failure modes,analysis of bolt support resistance,reference for support design/construction in underground engineering within complex strata.
