In our work, stoichiometric SrAl2O4 : Eu2+, Dy3+ sol vip was prepared by sol-gel method and assembled into the nanometer channels of zeolite ZSM-5 host through mechanical mixing, hydrothemial reaction and microwave heating reaction, respectively. After being reduced and diffused in a microwave muffle, the fluorescence spectra of the host-vip materials exhibit remarkable blue shifts in companison of that of SrAl2O4 : Eu2+, Dy3+ Some interesting phenomena in the assembled host-vip materials are that the after-low emission spectra exist two bands at about 400 nm and 517 nm and the relative strengths of these two hands can be adjusted by changing the assembly methods and the assembly concentration. These are attributed to the fact that the phosphor was capsuiated into the voids of zeolite ZSM-5 and generated the quantum size effect and the host-vip effect.展开更多

The core member of the specimens was a single flat-plate. Two rectangular tubes were assembled using high strength bolts to form an external restraining member. Each rectangular tube was composed of an external steel channel and a cover plate. A gap or thin rubber filler was set between the core and the external restraining member to form an unbonded layer. The influence of several design parameters on the failure mode and energy dissipation capacity of the ABRB was investigated, including the height of the core wing plate, thickness of the external cover plate, and height of the external channel flange. This experimental study demonstrated that a local pressure-bearing failure at the end of the external member arises when the external cover plate is too thin or if the end construction detail is unreasonable. When the end rotations of the DRT-ABRB were restricted, the hysteretic performance was shown to be superior to that of a pure pinned DRT-ABRB. Finally, all the tested DRT-ABRBs exhibited excellent energy dissipation performance which amply satisfied existing regulation requirements.展开更多

文摘Continuing advancement in astronomy,space exploration,and scientific detection,has increased demand for infrared multi-band detection systems.Traditional three-band optical systems,designed to simultaneously image at infrared short-wave,mid-wave,and long-wave bands typically rely on dispersive elements,leading to bulky sizes,complex system architectures,low efficiency,and challenges in rapid assembly.To overcome these obstacles,in combination with the latest third-generation infrared detectors,we propose a design for a compact and lightweight three-band optical system,with infrared capabilities in all three required bands.The core of this approach is an integrated design philosophy that emphasizes the high steepness of mirror surfaces.This design achieves uniform correction and optimization of chromatic aberration and off-axis aberration across the spectral range.We introduce a novel integration of optical and mechanical elements to replace traditional assembly,reducing manufacturing and assembly errors,and degrees of freedom,associated with high-power optical elements.Confirming the effectiveness through a combination of simulations and experimental comparisons,the measured mid-wave full-field transfer function exceeds 0.405 at 17 lp/mm,satisfying the imaging requirements of the system.The optical system is lightweight and compact,with a total mass under 408 g and a compact volume of justΦ112 mm×117 mm.This serves as a valuable reference for the engineering application of high-performance,compact multi-band infrared composite detection systems for astronomy and space exploration.

文摘Segmentally assembled bridges are increasinglyfinding engineering applications in recent years due to their unique advantages,especially as urban viaducts.Vehicle loads are one of the most important variable loads acting on bridge structures.Accordingly,the influence of overloaded vehicles on existing assembled bridge structures is an urgent concern at present.This paper establishes thefinite element model of the segmentally assembled bridge based on ABAQUS software and analyzes the influence of vehicle overload on an assembled girder bridge struc-ture.First,afinite element model corresponding to the target bridge is established based on ABAQUS software,and the load is controlled to simulate vehicle movement in each area of the traveling zone at different times.Sec-ond,the key cross-sections of segmental girder bridges are monitored in real time based on the force character-istics of continuous girder bridges,and they are compared with the simulation results.Finally,a material damage ontology model is introduced,and the structural damage caused by different overloading rates is compared and analyzed.Results show that thefinite element modeling method is accurate by comparing with on-site measured data,and it is suitable for the numerical simulation of segmental girder bridges;Dynamic sensors installed at 1/4L,1/2L,and 3/4L of the segmental girder main beams could be used to identify the dynamic response of segmental girder bridges;The bottom plate of the segmental girder bridge is mostly damaged at the position where the length of the precast beam section changes and the midspan position.With the increase in load,damage in the direction of the bridge develops faster than that in the direction of the transverse bridge.Thefindings of this study can guide maintenance departments in the management and maintenance of bridges and vehicles.

文摘Conventional repairing methods for asphalt pavement have some inconveniences,such as insufficient strength,and are typically time-consuming.To address these issues,this study proposes a new technological method to design and prepare a high-performance assembled asphalt concrete block for fast repair of the potholes.A series of composite modified asphalt binders with 10%crumb rubber(CR)and different dosages(0%,1%,3%,5%)of polyurethane(PU)are examined to determine the optimized binder.Subsequently,the corresponding asphalt mixtures are prepared for further comparison and assessment of engineering properties,such as moistureinduced damage,high-temperature deformation,and low-temperature cracking characteristics.The test results show that PU can significantly improve the high-temperature performance and hardness of(crumb rubber modified asphalt)CRMA binder;3%PU contributes allowing the resistance of CRMA mixture to moisture-induced damage at higher levels,particularly under water whole immersion;as 3%PU is added,the high-temperature rutting deformation resistance of the CRMA mixture increases significantly,and the low-temperature anti-cracking properties are also improved slightly.Therefore,the innovatively designed high-quality assembled fast-repairing asphalt concrete block is recommended as an appropriate option for highway maintenance.

文摘We develop assembled reinforcement structures(ARSs)composed of connection parts,connecting rods,and straight bolts to strengthen segmental joints in the lining of shield tunnels.Through full-scale bending experiments and numerical simulations,we investigate the deformation and failure characteristics of segmental joints strengthened by ARSs,and propose a novel optimization method for ARSs.The experimental results show that the ARSs can effectively limit the opening of a segmental joint,but also that separation can occur during loading if the connection between the ARSs and segments is not designed properly.Importantly,this connection can be improved by embedding anchor parts in the concrete.In numerical modeling,we investigate the failure modes of segmental joints strengthened by ARSs for both positive bending and negative bending loading cases.In the case of positive bending loading,first the concrete around the anchor parts cracks,and subsequently the concrete on the external side of the joint is crushed.The joint failure is caused by the crushing of concrete on the external side of the joint.While the un-strengthened segmental joint fails with an opening of 5.884 mm,the strengthened segmental joint only opens by 0.288 mm under the same loading,corresponding to a reduction of 95.1%.In the case of negative bending loading,the concrete around the anchor parts first cracks,and then the amount of joint opening exceeds a limiting value for waterproofing(6 mm),i.e.,the joint’s failure is caused by water leakage.While the opening of the un-strengthened segmental joint is 9.033 mm and experiences waterproofing failure,the opening of the strengthened segmental joint is only 2.793 mm under the same loading,corresponding to a reduction of 69.1%.When constructing a new shield tunnel,anchor parts could be embedded in the concrete segments in tandem with ARSs for improved resistance to joint opening.For existing shield tunnel linings,anchor parts cannot be embedded in the concrete segments;therefore,the connections between the ARSs and concrete need to be optimized to strengthen the segmental joint.

文摘Recently,the composite of soft conductive substrates,such as carbon fiber(CF),with metal-organic frameworks(MOFs)has been employed in a myriad of applications.The composite material has demonstrated exceptional potential in the realm of electrochemical sensing platforms.However,the rapid growth of MOFs on the surface of CF remains a challenge.Herein,we propose a simple galvanostatic method as an effective strategy for rapidly growing zeolitic imidazolate frameworks(ZIFs)on CF,and obtain nanocaltrop-like ZIFs modified CF(NC-ZIFs/CF)glucose(Glu)sensor platform with distinctive morphology.The prepared NC-ZIFs/CF demonstrated significant electrocatalytic activity towards the oxidation of Glu in alkaline media,characterized by a pronounced augmentation in oxidation current density.At an applied potential of 0.4 V,NC-ZIFs/CF exhibited a remarkably broad detection range(3–30,000μmol/L)and demonstrated outstanding selectivity,repeatability and reproducibility.Additionally,the NC-ZIFs/CF was efficaciously employed for the detection of blood Glu levels in the serum of both normoglycemic and hyperglycemic patients,obtaining highly reliable results.This work demonstrates the feasibility of using galvanostatic method assembly to induce the growth of MOFs on conductive substrates,providing new ideas for electrocatalysis sensors and other electrochemical applications.

文摘Mechanical-guided assembly of three-dimensional(3D)mesostructures from pre-defined 2D precursors based on the deterministically controlled buckling has attracted increasing attention in both fundamental and applied research areas,owing to the compelling advantages in developing flexible electronic devices with complex 3D geometries and novel functions.Recently,a buckling-guided strategy was reported to enable assembly of complex 3D mesostructures and electronic devices on cylindrical and cylinder-like substrates,which can be integrated with vascular systems for monitoring of flow rate and other physical signals.A clear understanding of nonlinear buckling deformations of elastic beams assembled on cylindrical substrates is thereby essential for the relevant structural design.In this work,we present a systematic study on the nonlinear deformations of buckled ribbon-type structures on cylindrical substrates.Two representative classes of ribbon-type structures are considered,including arc structures and serpentine structures.Starting with the finite-deformation beam theory,a theoretical model is established to investigate deformed configurations resulted from the controlled buckling,including ribbons assembled on both outer and inner surfaces of the substrate.The structure-substrate contact and self-contact are taken into account in the analyses,which could lead to distinct deformed configurations.Both experimental studies and finite element analyses(FEA)were carried out to validate the developed theoretical model.A demonstrative device design based on the 3D ribbon network outside the cylindrical substrate suggests potential applications in energy harvesting across a broad range of frequency.The theoretical model presented herein could offer insights for the practical design of 3D electronic devices that can be conformally integrated with curvy biological surfaces.

文摘To enhance the corrosion resistance of magnesium(Mg) alloy and to impart its surface with antibacterial functionality for inhibiting biofilm formation and biocorrosion, Mg(OH)2 films were fabricated on AZ31 magnesium alloy substrates by an in-situ hydrothermal method and well-defined multilayer coatings, consisting of gentamicin sulfate(GS) and poly(sodium 4-styrene sulfonate)(PSS), were prepared via layer-by-layer(Lb L) assembly. The morphologies, chemical compositions and corrosion resistance of the obtained(PSS/GS)n/Mg sample were investigated using scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, electrochemical methods and immersion tests. Finally, the bactericidal activity of(PSS/GS)n/Mg samples against Staphylococcus aureus was assessed by the zone of inhibition methods and plate-counting method. The so-synthesized composite coating on the Mg alloy substrates exhibits good corrosion resistance and antibacterial performance, which make them attractive as coatings for medical implanted devices.

文摘In structural simulation and design,an accurate computational model directly determines the effectiveness of performance evaluation.To establish a high-fidelity dynamic model of a complex assembled structure,a Hierarchical Model Updating Strategy(HMUS)is developed for Finite Element(FE)model updating with regard to uncorrelated modes.The principle of HMUS is first elaborated by integrating hierarchical modeling concept,model updating technology with proper uncorrelated mode treatment,and parametric modeling.In the developed strategy,the correct correlated mode pairs amongst the uncorrelated modes are identified by an error minimization procedure.The proposed updating technique is validated by the dynamic FE model updating of a simple fixed–fixed beam.The proposed HMUS is then applied to the FE model updating of an aeroengine stator system(casings)to demonstrate its effectiveness.Our studies reveal that(A)parametric modeling technique is able to build an efficient equivalent model by simplifying complex structure in geometry while ensuring the consistency of mechanical characteristics;(B)the developed model updating technique efficiently processes the uncorrelated modes and precisely identifies correct Correlated Mode Pairs(CMPs)between FE model and experiment;(C)the proposed HMUS is accurate and efficient in the FE model updating of complex assembled structures such as aeroengine casings with large-scale model,complex geometry,high-nonlinearity and numerous parameters;(D)it is appropriate to update a complex structural FE model parameterized.The efforts of this study provide an efficient updating strategy for the dynamic model updating of complex assembled structures with experimental test data,which is promising to promote the precision and feasibility of simulation-based design optimization and performance evaluation of complex structures.

文摘A robust and green strategy for the selective upgrading of biomass-derived platform chemicals towards highly valuable products is important for the sustainable development.Herein,the efficient electrocatalytic oxidation of biomass-derived furfuryl alcohol(FFA)into furoic acid(FurAc)catalyzed by the electrodeposited non-precious NiFe microflowers was successfully reached under the low temperature and ambient pressure.The 3D hierarchical NiFe microflowers assembled from ultrathin nanosheets were controllably synthesized by the electrodeposition method and uniformly grown on carbon fiber paper(CFP).Electrochemical analysis confirmed that NiFe nanosheets more preferred in the selective oxidation of FFA(FFAOR)than oxygen evolution reaction(OER).The linear sweep voltammetry(LSV)in FFAOR displayed a clear decrease towards lower potential,resulting in 30 mV reduction of overpotential at 20 mA cm^(-2) compared with that of OER.The optimal catalyst Ni_(1)Fe_(2) nanosheets exhibited the highest selectivity of FurAc(94.0%)and 81.4%conversion of FFA within 3 h.Besides,the influence of various reaction parameters on FFAOR was then explored in details.After that,the reaction pathway was investigated and rationally proposed.The outstanding performance for FFAOR can be ascribed to the unique structure of 3D flower-like NiFe nanosheets and oxygen vacancies,resulting in large exposure of active sites,faster electron transfer and enhanced adsorption of reactants.Our findings highlight a facile and convenient mean with a promising green future,which is promising for processing of various biomass-derived platform chemicals into value-added products.

文摘Turbine blisks are assembled using blades,disks and casings.They can endure complex loads at a high temperature,high pressure and high speed.The safe operation of assembled structures depends on the reliability of each component.Monte Carlo(MC)simulation is commonly used to analyze structural reliability,but this method needs to run thousands of computations.In order to assess the clearance reliability of assembled structures in an efficient and precise manner,the novel Kriging-based decomposed-coordinated(DC)(DCNK)approach is proposed by integrating the DC strategy,the Kriging model and the importance sampling-based Markov chain(MCIS)technique.In this method,the DC strategy is used to decompose a multi-objective problem into many single-objective problems.The relationships between these many single-objectives and the overall objective are then coordinated.The Kriging model is applied to establish the limit state functions of the single-objectives and multi-objective problems,while the MCIS method is used to assess the structural assembled clearance reliability.Moreover,a highly nonlinear complex compound function is first utilized to verify the DCNK model from a mathematical perspective.Then,the reliability of an aeroengine high-pressure turbine(HPT)blade-tip radial running clearance(BTRRC)is analyzed to validate the DCNK approach by considering thermo-structural interaction.The analytical results show that the reliability is 0.9976 when the allowance value of the BTTRC is 1.7650×10^(−3)m.Compared with different methodologies(including direct simulation,the classical Kriging model,and the weighted response surface method(WRSM)),the proposed method holds obvious advantages in computing time and precision,as well as simulation efficiency and precision.The efforts of this paper provide a useful approach to analyzing assembled clearance reliability and contribute to the development of structural reliability theory.
文摘Capsulating vip into the nanometer voids of zeolites is a effective way to form novel host-vip material. In our work, stoichiometric SrAl2O4 : Eu2+, Dy3+ sol vip was prepared by sol-gel method and assembled into the nanometer channels of zeolite ZSM-5 host through mechanical mixing, hydrothemial reaction and microwave heating reaction, respectively. After being reduced and diffused in a microwave muffle, the fluorescence spectra of the host-vip materials exhibit remarkable blue shifts in companison of that of SrAl2O4 : Eu2+, Dy3+ Some interesting phenomena in the assembled host-vip materials are that the after-low emission spectra exist two bands at about 400 nm and 517 nm and the relative strengths of these two hands can be adjusted by changing the assembly methods and the assembly concentration. These are attributed to the fact that the phosphor was capsuiated into the voids of zeolite ZSM-5 and generated the quantum size effect and the host-vip effect.

文摘In this study, seven pinned double-rectangular tube assembled buckling-restrained brace (DRT-ABRB) specimens were experimentally charaeterised by means of an axial cyclic test. The core member of the specimens was a single flat-plate. Two rectangular tubes were assembled using high strength bolts to form an external restraining member. Each rectangular tube was composed of an external steel channel and a cover plate. A gap or thin rubber filler was set between the core and the external restraining member to form an unbonded layer. The influence of several design parameters on the failure mode and energy dissipation capacity of the ABRB was investigated, including the height of the core wing plate, thickness of the external cover plate, and height of the external channel flange. This experimental study demonstrated that a local pressure-bearing failure at the end of the external member arises when the external cover plate is too thin or if the end construction detail is unreasonable. When the end rotations of the DRT-ABRB were restricted, the hysteretic performance was shown to be superior to that of a pure pinned DRT-ABRB. Finally, all the tested DRT-ABRBs exhibited excellent energy dissipation performance which amply satisfied existing regulation requirements.
