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

文摘Quaternary chalcogenides are viewed as a class of potential thermoelectric materials due to their good thermoelectric performance in the medium temperature region.In this work,carbon nanotubes(CNTs)with varying weight percentages are composited into the quaternary chalcogenide Cu_(2.1)Mn_(0.9)SnSe_(4)(CMTS)using a technique that combines ball-milling and hot-pressing,and the effect of CNTs on the thermoelectric performance of CMTS is investigated.The compositing of CNTs results in an increase in the intrinsic defects of CMTS,thereby enhancing the electrical conductivities of the composited samples.Besides,the addition of CNTs introduces various phonon scattering mechanisms,effectively restraining the lattice thermal conductivities of the composited samples,particularly in the low to medium temperature range.Ultimately,owing to the concurrent optimization of the power factor and thermal conductivity,the x=0.25 sample achieves a zT value of 0.37 at 673 K.The compositing of highly conductive secondary phase is recognized as a viable approach for the simultaneous enhancement of the thermoelectric properties of materials.

文摘With vigorous developments in nanotechnology,the elaborate regulation of microstructure shows attractive potential in the design of electromagnetic wave absorbers.Herein,a hierarchical porous structure and composite heterogeneous interface are constructed successfully to optimize the electromagnetic loss capacity.The macro–micro-synergistic graphene aerogel formed by the ice template‑assisted 3D printing strategy is cut by silicon carbide nanowires(SiC_(nws))grown in situ,while boron nitride(BN)interfacial structure is introduced on graphene nanoplates.The unique composite structure forces multiple scattering of incident EMWs,ensuring the combined effects of interfacial polarization,conduction networks,and magnetic-dielectric synergy.Therefore,the as-prepared composites present a minimum reflection loss value of−37.8 dB and a wide effective absorption bandwidth(EAB)of 9.2 GHz(from 8.8 to 18.0 GHz)at 2.5 mm.Besides,relying on the intrinsic high-temperature resistance of SiC_(nws) and BN,the EAB also remains above 5.0 GHz after annealing in air environment at 600℃ for 10 h.

文摘Brazing filler metals are widely applied,which serve as an industrial adhesive in the joining of dissimilar structures.With the continuous emergence of new structures and materials,the demand for novel brazing filler metals is ever-increasing.It is of great significance to investigate the optimized composition design methods and to establish systematic design guidelines for brazing filler metals.This study elucidated the fundamental rules for the composition design of brazing filler metals from a three-dimensional perspective encompassing the basic properties of applied brazing filler metals,formability and processability,and overall cost.The basic properties of brazing filler metals refer to their mechanical properties,physicochemical properties,electromagnetic properties,corrosion resistance,and the wettability and fluidity during brazing.The formability and processability of brazing filler metals include the processes of smelting and casting,extrusion,rolling,drawing and ring-making,as well as the processes of granulation,powder production,and the molding of amorphous and microcrystalline structures.The cost of brazing filler metals corresponds to the sum of materials value and manufacturing cost.Improving the comprehensive properties of brazing filler metals requires a comprehensive and systematic consideration of design indicators.Highlighting the unique characteristics of brazing filler metals should focus on relevant technical indicators.Binary or ternary eutectic structures can effectively enhance the flow spreading ability of brazing filler metals,and solid solution structures contribute to the formability.By employing the proposed design guidelines,typical Ag based,Cu based,Zn based brazing filler metals,and Sn based solders were designed and successfully applied in major scientific and engineering projects.
文摘Fatty acids are the main constituents of vegetable oils.To determine the fatty acid compositions of small trade vegetable oils and some less well studied beneficial vegetable oils,and investigate their relationships with antioxidant activity and oxidative stability,gas chromatography-mass spectrometry was performed to characterize the associated fatty acid profiles.The antioxidant activity of vegetable oils,based on their DPPH-scavenging capacity(expressed as IC_(50) values),was used to assess their impact on human health,and their oxidative stability was characterized by performing lipid oxidation analysis to determine the oxidative induction time of fats and oils.In addition,correlation analyses were performed to examine associations between the fatty acid composition of the oils and DPPH-scavenging capacity and oxidative stability.The results revealed that among the assessed oils,coffee seed oil has the highest saturated fatty acid content(355.10 mg/g),whereas Garddenia jaminoides oil has the highest unsaturated fatty acid content(844.84 mg/g).Coffee seed oil was also found have the lowest DPPH IC_(50) value(2.30 mg/mL)and the longest oxidation induction time(17.09 h).Correlation analysis revealed a significant linear relationship(P<0.05)between oxidative stability and unsaturated fatty acid content,with lower contents tending to be associated with better oxidative stability.The findings of this study provide reference data for the screening of functional edible vegetable oils.

文摘Zirconium-titanium-steel composite plate with the size of 2500 mm×7800 mm×(3+0.7+22)mm was prepared by explosive welding+rolling method,and its properties were analyzed by ultrasonic nondestructive testing,phased array waveform shape,interface structure shape,electronic scanning,and mechanical property testing.Results show that the rolling temperature of zirconiumtitanium complex should be controlled at 760°C,and the rolling reduction of each pass should be controlled at 10%–25%.The explosive velocity to prepare zirconium-titanium-steel composite plates should be controlled at 2450–2500 m/s,the density should be 0.78 g/cm3,the stand-off height should be 12 mm,and the explosive height of Zone A and Zone B should be 45–50 mm.Explosive welding combined with rolling method reduces the impact of explosive welding and multiple heat treatment on material properties.Meanwhile,the problems of surface wrinkling and cracking,which occur during the preparation process of large-sized zirconiumtitanium-steel composite plate,can be solved.

文摘Because of the challenge of compounding lightweight,high-strength Ti/Al alloys due to their considerable disparity in properties,Al 6063 as intermediate layer was proposed to fabricate TC4/Al 6063/Al 7075 three-layer composite plate by explosive welding.The microscopic properties of each bonding interface were elucidated through field emission scanning electron microscope and electron backscattered diffraction(EBSD).A methodology combining finite element method-smoothed particle hydrodynamics(FEM-SPH)and molecular dynamics(MD)was proposed for the analysis of the forming and evolution characteristics of explosive welding interfaces at multi-scale.The results demonstrate that the bonding interface morphologies of TC4/Al 6063 and Al 6063/Al 7075 exhibit a flat and wavy configuration,without discernible defects or cracks.The phenomenon of grain refinement is observed in the vicinity of the two bonding interfaces.Furthermore,the degree of plastic deformation of TC4 and Al 7075 is more pronounced than that of Al 6063 in the intermediate layer.The interface morphology characteristics obtained by FEM-SPH simulation exhibit a high degree of similarity to the experimental results.MD simulations reveal that the diffusion of interfacial elements predominantly occurs during the unloading phase,and the simulated thickness of interfacial diffusion aligns well with experimental outcomes.The introduction of intermediate layer in the explosive welding process can effectively produce high-quality titanium/aluminum alloy composite plates.Furthermore,this approach offers a multi-scale simulation strategy for the study of explosive welding bonding interfaces.

文摘Improving the accuracy of anthropogenic volatile organic compounds(VOCs)emission inventory is crucial for reducing atmospheric pollution and formulating control policy of air pollution.In this study,an anthropogenic speciated VOCs emission inventory was established for Central China represented by Henan Province at a 3 km×3 km spatial resolution based on the emission factormethod.The 2019 VOCs emission in Henan Provincewas 1003.5 Gg,while industrial process source(33.7%)was the highest emission source,Zhengzhou(17.9%)was the city with highest emission and April and August were the months with the more emissions.High VOCs emission regions were concentrated in downtown areas and industrial parks.Alkanes and aromatic hydrocarbons were the main VOCs contribution groups.The species composition,source contribution and spatial distribution were verified and evaluated through tracer ratio method(TR),Positive Matrix Factorization Model(PMF)and remote sensing inversion(RSI).Results show that both the emission results by emission inventory(EI)(15.7 Gg)and by TRmethod(13.6 Gg)and source contribution by EI and PMF are familiar.The spatial distribution of HCHO primary emission based on RSI is basically consistent with that of HCHO emission based on EI with a R-value of 0.73.The verification results show that the VOCs emission inventory and speciated emission inventory established in this study are relatively reliable.

文摘SiC_(f)/SiC ceramic matrix composites(SiC_(f)/SiC composites)are difficult to drill small holes due to their heterogeneity,high hardness,and low electrical conductivity.In order to solve the difficulties of poor quality and low efficiency when drilling small holes,a novel femtosecond laser rotary drilling(FLRD)technique is proposed.Beam kinematic paths and experimental studies were carried out to analyze the effects of processing parameters on the drilling results in the two-step drilling process.In the through-hole drilling stage,the material removal rate increases with increasing laser power,decreasing feed speed and decreasing pitch.As for the finishing stage of drilling,the exit diameter increased with increasing laser power and decreasing feed speed.The drilling parameters were selected by taking the processing efficiency of through-hole and the quality of finished hole as the constraint criteria.Holes with a diameter of 500μm were drilled using FLRD in 3 mm thick SiC_(f)/SiC composites with a drilling time<150 s.The hole aspect ratio was 6,the taper<0.2°,and there was no significant thermal damage at the orifice or the wall of the hole.The FLRD provides a solution for precision machining of small holes in difficult-to-machine materials by offering the advantages of high processing quality and short drilling times.

文摘Latent heat thermal energy storage(TES)effectively reduces the mismatch between energy supply and demand of renewable energy sources by the utilization of phase change materials(PCMs).However,the low thermal conductivity and poor shape stability are the main drawbacks in realizing the large-scale application of PCMs.Promisingly,developing composite PCM(CPCM)based on porous supporting mate-rial provides a desirable solution to obtain performance-enhanced PCMs with improved effective thermal conductivity and shape stability.Among all the porous matrixes as supports for PCM,three-dimensional carbon-based porous supporting material has attracted considerable attention ascribing to its high ther-mal conductivity,desirable loading capacity of PCMs,and excellent chemical compatibility with various PCMs.Therefore,this work systemically reviews the CPCMs with three-dimensional carbon-based porous supporting materials.First,a concise rule for the fabrication of CPCMs is illustrated in detail.Next,the experimental and computational research of carbon nanotube-based support,graphene-based support,graphite-based support and amorphous carbon-based support are reviewed.Then,the applications of the shape-stabilized CPCMs including thermal management and thermal conversion are illustrated.Last but not least,the challenges and prospects of the CPCMs are discussed.To conclude,introducing carbon-based porous materials can solve the liquid leakage issue and essentially improve the thermal conductivity of PCMs.However,there is still a long way to further develop a desirable CPCM with higher latent heat capacity,higher thermal conductivity,and more excellent shape stability.

文摘The preparation of carbon-based electromagnetic wave(EMW)absorbers possessing thin matching thickness,wide absorption bandwidth,strong absorption intensity,and low filling ratio remains a huge challenge.Metal-organic frameworks(MOFs)are ideal self-sacrificing templates for the construction of carbon-based EMW absorbers.In this work,bimetallic FeMn-MOF-derived MnFe_(2)O_(4)/C/graphene composites were fabricated via a two-step route of solvothermal reaction and the following pyrolysis treatment.The results re-veal the evolution of the microscopic morphology of carbon skeletons from loofah-like to octahedral and then to polyhedron and pomegran-ate after the adjustment of the Fe^(3+)to Mn^(2+)molar ratio.Furthermore,at the Fe^(3+)to Mn^(2+)molar ratio of 2:1,the obtained MnFe_(2)O_(4)/C/graphene composite exhibited the highest EMW absorption capacity.Specifically,a minimum reflection loss of-72.7 dB and a max-imum effective absorption bandwidth of 5.1 GHz were achieved at a low filling ratio of 10wt%.In addition,the possible EMW absorp-tion mechanism of MnFe_(2)O_(4)/C/graphene composites was proposed.Therefore,the results of this work will contribute to the construction of broadband and efficient carbon-based EMW absorbers derived from MOFs.

文摘Lightweight high/medium-entropy alloys(H/MEAs)possess attractive properties such as high strength-to-weight ratios,however,their limited room-temperature tensile ductility hinders their widespread engi-neering implementation,for instance in aerospace structural components.This work achieved a transfor-mative improvement of room-temperature tensile ductility in Ti-V-Zr-Nb MEAs with densities of 5.4-6.5 g/cm3,via ingenious composition modulation.Through the systematic co-adjustment of Ti and V contents,an intrinsic ductility mechanism was unveiled,manifested by a transition from predominant intergranular brittle fracture to pervasive ductile dimpled rupture.Notably,the modulated deformation mechanisms evolved from solitary slip toward collaborative multiple slip modes,without significantly compromising strength.Compared to equimolar Ti-V-Zr-Nb,a(Ti1.5V)3ZrNb composition demonstrated an impressive 360%improvement in elongation while sustaining a high yield strength of around 800 MPa.Increasing Ti and V not only purified the grain boundaries by reducing detrimental phases,but also tai-lored the deformation dislocation configurations.These insights expanded the applicability of lightweight HEAs to areas demanding combined high strength and ductility.

文摘In this paper, four widely used temporal compositing algorithms, i.e.median, maximum NDVI, medoid, and weighted scoring-basedalgorithms, were evaluated for annual land cover classification usingmonthly Landsat time series data. 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.
