文摘Flexible zinc-ion batteries(FZIBs)have been acknowledged as a potential cornerstone for the future development of flexible energy storage,yet conventional FZIBs still encounter challenges,particularly concerning performance failure at low temperatures.To address these challenges,a novel anti-freezing leather gel electrolyte(AFLGE-30)is designed,incorporating ethanol as a hydrogen bonding acceptor.The AFLGE-30 demonstrates exceptional frost resistance while maintaining favorable flexibility even at-30℃;accordingly,the battery can achieve a high specific capacity of about 70 m Ah/g.Cu//Zn battery exhibits remarkable stability at room temperature,retaining~96%efficiency after 120 plating/stripping cycles at1 m A/cm^(2).Concurrently,the Zn//Zn symmetric batteries demonstrate a lifespan of 4100 h at room temperature,which is attributed to the enhancement of Zn^(2+)deposition kinetics,restraining the formation of zinc dendrites.Furthermore,FZIBs exhibit minimal capacity loss even after bending,impacting,or burning.This work provides a promising strategy for designing low-temperature-resistant FZIBs.

文摘Tin(Sn)is considered an effective anode material for stripping and plating due to its promising capacity,isotropic deposition,and relatively negative redox potential of-0.91 V vs.standard hydrogen electrode(SHE).However,the challenges of hydrogen evolution corrosion and“dead Sn”formation at the Snalkaline electrolyte interface restrict its reversibility,which poses challenges for flexible devices and in a broad temperature range.In this study,we successfully designed a corrosion-resistant Sn anode(CuPVDF@Sn)featuring a multilevel microchannel structure.The Sn-affinitive Cu mesh with good electronic conductivity lowers the nucleation energy barrier and enhances deposition uniformity,while PVDF improves hydrogen evolution potential.Additionally,the soft Cu mesh and PVDF provide flexibility in design.As a result,the flexible Cu-PVDF@Sn anode achieves a coulombic efficiency(CE)of 92.61% and stable cycling for over 800 h.The flexible Sn-air battery based on this anode exhibits an energy density of 504 Wh kg^(-1),a peak power density of 80 mW cm^(-2),and a cycling stability of 120 h at 5 mA cm^(-2).It also operates effectively within a wide temperature range of -15-60℃,providing strong support for excellent environmental adaptability.The proposed concept in this work might provide a promising alternative for developing stable Sn anodes in flexible Sn-air batteries.

文摘Improvements in aero-engine performance have made the structures of the aero-engine components increasingly complex.To better adapt to the processing requirements of narrow twisted channels such as an integral shrouded blisk,this study proposes an innovative method of electrochemical cutting in which a flexible tube electrode is controlled by online deformation during processing.In this study,the processing principle of electrochemical cutting with a flexible electrode for controlled online deformation(FECC)was revealed for the first time.The online deformation process of flexible electrodes and the machining process of profiles were analysed in depth,and the corresponding theoretical models were established.Conventional electrochemical machining(ECM)is a multi-physical field-coupled process involving electric and flow fields.In FECC,classical mechanics are introduced into the tool cathode,which must be loaded at all times during the machining process.Therefore,in this study,before and after the deformation of the flexible electrode,a corresponding simulation study was conducted to understand the influence of the online deformation of the flexible electrode on the flow and electric fields.The feasibility of flexible electrodes for online deformation and the validity of the theoretical model were verified by deformation measurements and in situ observation experiments.Finally,the method was successfully applied to the machining of nickel-based high-temperature alloys,and different specifications of flexible electrodes were used to complete the machining of the corresponding complex profiles,thereby verifying the feasibility and versatility of the method.The method proposed in this study breaks the tradition of using a non-deformable cathode for ECM and adopts a flexible electrode that can be deformed during the machining process as the tool cathode,which improves machining flexibility and provides a valuable reference to promote the ECM of complex profiles.

文摘An experimental analysis of the slug-induced vibration(SIV)of a flexible catenary riser with an aspect ratio of 130 is reported in this work.The vibration responses and internal slug flow details at different gas-liquid ratios(Q_(g)/Q_(l))and mixture velocities(vm)are non-intrusively and simultaneously captured by high-speed cameras.Both the in-plane and out-of-plane responses of the catenary riser are excited in all considered cases.The slug flow characteristics,including translational velocities,slug lengths,recurrence frequencies,and pressure variations,are analyzed and dis-cussed,as are the dynamic responses of the riser in terms of the amplitudes,space-varying frequency,and modal weight.The dominant modal response based on the root-mean-square amplitude profiles does not match that based on the dominant frequency.Three mode switching types are identified based on the RMS amplitude profiles and the dominant frequency.When vm is small,no mode switching(NMS)is observed in either the in-plane or out-of-plane responses.For mode switching I(MS I),the switching between the first and second modes in the in-plane response is induced by slug flow with different recurrence frequencies in cases of large Q_(g)/Q_(l).However,there is no mode switching in the out-of-plane response.The switching between the first and third modes for the in-plane response and the second and fourth modes for the out-of-plane response(MS II)occurs in cases of relatively high vm and low Q_(g)/Q_(l).

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.
