The results showed that small addition(0.2 vol% and 0.5 vol%) of GNPs can lead to a simultaneous increase in the tensile strength and ductility of the GNPs/Al nanocomposites, as compared with the same processed pure Al. With increasing GNPs content, the tensile strength of the GNPs/Al nanocomposites can be enhanced to 387 MPa with retained elongation of 15%. Meanwhile, the GNPs/Al nanocomposites exhibited a good electrical conductivity of77.8%–86.1% that of annealed pure Al. The excellent properties(high strength, high ductility and high conductivity) of the GNPs/Al are associated with the particular ARC process, which facilitates the uniform dispersion of GNPs in the matrix and formation of ultrafine-grained Al matrix. The strengthening and toughening of the GNPs/Al nanocomposites were discussed considering different mechanisms and the unique effect of GNPs.展开更多

Four study areas located in California,Texas, Kansas, and Minnesota, USA were selected for image compositingand land cover classification. Results indicated that images compositedusing weighted scoring-based algorithms have the best spatial fidelitycompared to other three algorithms. In addition, the weighted scoringbasedalgorithms have superior classification accuracy, followed bymedian, maximum NDVI, and medoid in descending order. However, themedian algorithm has a significant advantage in computational efficiencywhich was ~70 times that of weighted scoring-based algorithms, andwith overall classification accuracy just slightly lower (~0.13% onaverage) than weighted scoring-based algorithms. Therefore, werecommended the weighted scoring-based compositing algorithms forsmall area land cover mapping, and median compositing algorithm forthe land cover mapping of large area considering the balance betweencomputational complexity and classification accuracy. The findings of thisstudy provide insights into the performance difference between variouscompositing algorithms, and have potential uses for the selection ofpixel-based image compositing technique adopted for land covermapping based on Landsat time series data.展开更多

However, themedian algorithm has a significant advantage in computational efficiencywhich was ~70 times that of weighted scoring-based algorithms, andwith overall classification accuracy just slightly lower (~0.13% onaverage) than weighted scoring-based algorithms. Therefore, werecommended the weighted scoring-based compositing algorithms forsmall area land cover mapping, and median compositing algorithm forthe land cover mapping of large area considering the balance betweencomputational complexity and classification accuracy. The findings of thisstudy provide insights into the performance difference between variouscompositing algorithms, and have potential uses for the selection ofpixel-based image compositing technique adopted for land covermapping based on Landsat time series data.

文摘Among various architectures of polymers,end-group-free rings have attracted growing interests due to their distinct physicochemical performances over the linear counterparts which are exemplified by reduced hydrodynamic size and slower degradation.It is key to develop facile methods to large-scale synthesis of polymer rings with tunable compositions and microstructures.Recent progresses in large-scale synthesis of polymer rings against single-chain dynamic nanoparticles,and the example applications in synchronous enhancing toughness and strength of polymer nanocomposites are summarized.Once there is the breakthrough in rational design and effective large-scale synthesis of polymer rings and their functional derivatives,a family of cyclic functional hybrids would be available,thus providing a new paradigm in developing polymer science and engineering.

文摘KIT-5/Beta composite supports were synthesized using an in situ self-assembly hydrothermal method,and NiW/KIT-5/Beta catalysts were prepared by impregnation.A series of characterization techniques were utilized to evaluate the influence of varying hydrothermal synthesis temperatures on the physicochemical properties of both the KIT-5/Beta supports and the resulting catalysts.The catalytic performances of catalysts were evaluated under reaction conditions of 320℃,4 MPa H_(2)pressure,and a weight hourly space velocity(WHSV)of 4.8 h^(-1)for hydrodenitrogenation(HDN)of quinoline.The results indicated that the specific surface area and pore structure of the materials could be effectively regulated by adjusting the hydrothermal synthesis temperature,which in turn influenced the number of active sites on the catalyst.The NiW/KB-125 catalyst,synthesized at 125℃,presented the highest quinoline HDN efficiency(96.8%),which can be attributed to its favorable pore channel structure,greater Brønsted acid number,higher degree of metal sulfidation(80.12%)and appropriate metal-support interaction(MSI).
文摘A composite electrocatalyst,CoMoNiO-S/NF-110(NF is nickel foam),was synthesized through electrodeposition,followed by pyrolysis and then the vulcanization process.CoMoNiO-S/NF-110 exhibited a structure where Ni3S2 and Mo2S3 nanoparticles were integrated at the edges of Co3O4 nanosheets,creating a rich,heterogeneous interface that enhances the synergistic effects of each component.In an alkaline electrolyte,the synthesized CoMoNiO-S/NF-110 exhibited superior electrocatalytic performance for oxygen evolution reaction(OER),achieving current densities of 100 and 200 mA·cm^(-2) with low overpotentials of 199.4 and 224.4 mV,respectively,outperforming RuO2 and several high-performance Mo and Ni-based catalysts.This excellent performance is attributed to the rich interface formed between the components and active sites exposed by the defect structure.
文摘The poor electrical conductivity of metal-organic frameworks(MOFs)limits their electrocatalytic performance in the oxygen evolution reaction(OER).In this study,a Py@Co-MOF composite material based on pyrene(Py)molecules and{[Co2(BINDI)(DMA)_(2)]·DMA}_(n)(Co-MOF,H4BINDI=N,N'-bis(5-isophthalic acid)naphthalenediimide,DMA=N,N-dimethylacetamide)was synthesized via a one-pot method,leveragingπ-πinteractions between pyrene and Co-MOF to modulate electrical conductivity.Results demonstrate that the Py@Co-MOF catalyst exhibited significantly enhanced OER performance compared to pure Co-MOF or pyrene-based electrodes,achieving an overpotential of 246 mV at a current density of 10 mA·cm^(-2) along with excellent stability.Density functional theory(DFT)calculations reveal that the formation of O*in the second step is the rate-determining step(RDS)during the OER process on Co-MOF,with an energy barrier of 0.85 eV due to the weak adsorption affinity of the OH*intermediate for Co sites.CCDC:2419276.

文摘Copper manufactured by laser powder bed fusion(LPBF)process typically exhibits poor strength-ductility coordination,and the addition of strengthening phases is an effective way to address this issue.To explore the effects of strengthening phases on Cu,Cu-carbon nanotubes(CNTs)composites were prepared using LPBF technique with Cu-CNTs mixed powder as the matrix.The formability,microstructure,mechanical properties,electrical conductivity,and thermal properties were studied.The result shows that the prepared composites have high relative density.The addition of CNTs results in inhomogeneous equiaxed grains at the edges of the molten pool and columnar grains at the center.Compared with pure copper,the overall mechanical properties of the composite are improved:tensile strength increases by 52.8%and elongation increases by 146.4%;the electrical and thermal properties are also enhanced:thermal conductivity increases by 10.8%and electrical conductivity increases by 12.7%.

文摘With the increasing of computing ability,large-scale simulations have been generating massive amounts of data in aerodynamics.Sort-last parallel rendering is the most classical image compositing method for large-scale scientific visualization.However,in the stage of image compositing,the sort-last method may suffer from scalability problem on large-scale processors.Existing image compositing algorithms tend to perform well in certain situations.For instance,Direct Send is well on small and medium scale;Radix-k gets well performance only when the k-value is appropriate and so on.In this paper,we propose a novel method named mSwap for scientific visualization in aerodynamics,which uses the best scale of processors to make sure its performance at the best.mSwap groups the processors that we can use with a(m,k)table,which records the best combination of m(the number of processors in subgroup of each group)and k(the number of processors in each group).Then in each group,using a m-ary tree to composite the image for reducing the communication of processors.Finally,the image is composited between different groups to generate the final image.The performance and scalability of our mSwap method is demonstrated through experiments with thousands of processors.

文摘The escalating demand for electromagnetic protection against increasingly severe electromagnetic pollution is making the development of advanced electromagnetic wave absorbing material systems imperative.MXene-based electromagnetic wave absorbing fillers demonstrate advantages of lightweight and high efficiency.However,their microscale dimensions hinder the formation of interconnected networks within matrices,resulting in limited electromagnetic(EM)loss mechanisms and narrow effective absorption bandwidths.Herein,we employ wet spinning combined with molten salt-assisted in-situ synthesis to fabricate MAX@rGO(rGMAX_(n))fibrous absorbers featuring a hierarchical structure of“columnar cactus covered with MAX spheres”.Precise regulation of MAX phase content enables controlled tuning of the electromagnetic properties of rGMAX_(n) fibers.Moreover,subsequent in-situ etching further enhances their EM performance,yielding MXene@rGO(rGMX_(n))fibers with a hierarchical structure of“columnar cactus decorated with MXene nanosheet clusters”.Freeze-drying is utilized to modulate fiber filling content,and fibrous felts with conductive networks are obtained,which exhibit excellent electromagnetic wave absorption performance.Among them,the as-prepared rGMX_(10) fibrous felt exhibits good electromagnetic wave absorption performance at a low filling content(10 wt.%)with the RL_(max) of 54.4 dB and an effective absorption bandwidth of 5.31 GHz.This enhancement originates from improved impedance matching characteristics through fiber-interconnected networks and multiple electromagnetic loss mechanisms enabled by the hierarchical structure.The strategy of in-situ growing hierarchical MXene@rGO fibers establishes a novel approach for developing MXene-based fibrous absorbing materials.

文摘Biochar and biochar composites are versatile materials that can be used in many applications.In this study,biochar was prepared from sawdust and combined with the yttrium iron garnet(YIG)nanocrystal to investigate the shielding effectiveness of the composite structure.Firstly,the effect of the pyrolysis temperature on the shielding effectiveness of biochar was investigated.Secondly,biochars combined with YIG nanocrystals with different contents and shielding effectiveness of the composites were investigated.The electromagnetic effectiveness of the samples was investigated within the X band(8-12 GHz).The findings indicate that biochar demonstrates enhanced absorption properties with elevated pyrolysis temperatures.Biochars demonstrated an approximate 40 d B shielding effectiveness,while YIG exhibited approximately 7 d B,corresponding to absorption at 8 GHz.However,the combination of biochar and YIG exhibited exceptional absorption,reaching 67.12 d B at 8 GHz.

文摘In this study,multilayer lamination welding was employed to prepare graphene/copper(Gr/Cu)composite billets from graphene-coated copper foils,followed by multi-pass cold drawing to produce Φ1 mm Gr/Cu composite wires.Microstructure and property analyses in both the cold-drawn and annealed states show that the incorporation of graphene significantly improves the ductility and electrical conductivity of the copper wire.After annealing at 350℃ for 30 minutes,the composite wire demonstrates a tensile strength of 270 MPa and an electrical conductivity of 102.74%IACS,both superior to those of pure copper wire under identical conditions.At 150℃,the electrical conductivity of the annealed composite wire reaches 72.60%IACS,notably higher than the 68.19%IACS of pure copper.The results suggest that graphene is uniformly distributed within the composite wire,with minimal impact on conductivity,while effectively refining the copper grain structure to enhance ductility.Moreover,graphene suppresses copper lattice vibrations at elevated temperatures,reducing the rate of conductivity degradation.

文摘There is an urgent need to develop magnesium-matrix materials that exhibit both high thermal conductivity and low thermal expansion to ensure compatibility with chips.This study aims to develop a Mg-Zn-Cu alloy with high thermal conductivity.Furthermore,it explores the preparation of AlN_(P)/Mg-Zn-Cu composites featuring low coefficients of thermal expansion.The stir casting method was utilized to fabricate the composites and an investigation was conducted to examine their microstructure and thermal properties.Results indicate that the addition of AlN_(P)reduces the thermal expansion coefficient while maintaining relatively high thermal conductivity.Specifically,the AlN_(P)/Mg-0.5Zn-0.5Cu composite with 30wt.%AlN_(P)achieves a thermal conductivity of 132.7 W·m^(-1)·K^(-1)and a thermal expansion coefficient of 18.5×10^(-6)K^(-1),rendering it suitable for electronic packaging applications where thermal management is critical.
文摘Installing internal bulkheads in a composite bucket foundation alters the rotational symmetry characteristic of a single-compartment bucket foundation,consequently influencing the stress distribution within the bucket and surrounding soil.During the seabed penetration of a spudcan from a jack-up wind turbine installation vessel,an angle may form between the spudcan’s axis and the axis of symmetry of the adjacent composite bucket foundation in the horizontal plane.Such a misalignment may affect load distribution and the non-uniform interaction between the foundation,soil,and spudcan,ultimately influencing the foundation’s stability.This study employs physical model tests to ascertain the trends in end resistance during spudcan penetration in sand,the extent of soil disturbance,and the backflow condition.The finite element coupled Eulerian-Lagrangian method is validated and utilized to determine the range of penetration angles that induce alterations in the maximum vertical displacement and tilt rate of the composite bucket foundation in sand.The differential contact stress distribution at the base of the bucket is analyzed,with qualitative criteria for sand backflow provided.Findings demonstrate that the maximum vertical displacement and tilt rate of the composite bucket foundation display a“wave-like”variation with the increasing spudcan penetration angle,peaking when the angle between the spudcan and bulkhead is the smallest.Stress distribution is predominantly concentrated at the base and apex of the bucket,becoming increasingly uneven as the penetration angle deviates from the foundation’s symmetry axis.The maximum stress gradually shifts to the junction of the bulkhead and bucket bottom on the side with the shortest net distance from the spudcan.Considering the in-place stability and stress state of the composite bucket foundation is therefore imperative,and particular attention should be paid to the foundation’s state when the angle between the spudcan and bulkhead is small.

文摘A new method was proposed for preparing AZ31/1060 composite plates with a corrugated interface,which involved cold-pressing a corrugated surface on the Al plate and then hot-pressing the assembled Mg/Al plate.The results show that cold-pressing produces intense plastic deformation near the corrugated surface of the Al plate,which promotes dynamic recrystallization of the Al substrate near the interface during the subsequent hot-pressing.In addition,the initial corrugation on the surface of the Al plate also changes the local stress state near the interface during hot pressing,which has a large effect on the texture components of the substrates near the corrugated interface.The construction of the corrugated interface can greatly enhance the shear strength by 2−4 times due to the increased contact area and the strong“mechanical gearing”effect.Moreover,the mechanical properties are largely depended on the orientation relationship between corrugated direction and loading direction.

文摘Vulnerabilities are a known problem in modern Open Source Software(OSS).Most developers often rely on third-party libraries to accelerate feature implementation.However,these libraries may contain vulnerabilities that attackers can exploit to propagate malicious code,posing security risks to dependent projects.Existing research addresses these challenges through Software Composition Analysis(SCA)for vulnerability detection and remediation.Nevertheless,current solutions may introduce additional issues,such as incompatibilities,dependency conflicts,and additional vulnerabilities.To address this,we propose Vulnerability Scan and Protection(VulnScanPro),a robust solution for detection and remediation vulnerabilities in Java projects.Specifically,VulnScanPro builds a finegrained method graph to identify unreachable methods.The method graph is mapped to the project’s dependency tree,constructing a comprehensive vulnerability propagation graph that identifies unreachable vulnerable APIs and dependencies.Based on this analysis,we propose three solutions for vulnerability remediation:(1)Removing unreachable vulnerable dependencies,thereby resolving security risks and reducing maintenance overhead.(2)Upgrading vulnerable dependencies to the closest non-vulnerable versions,while pinning the versions of transitive dependencies introduced by the vulnerable dependency,in order to mitigate compatibility issues and prevent the introduction of new vulnerabilities.(3)Eliminating unreachable vulnerable APIs,particularly when security patches are either incompatible or absent.Experimental results show that these solutions effectively mitigate vulnerabilities and enhance the overall security of the project.
