The use of compression techniques for these bitstream files is emerging as a key strategy to alleviate the burden on storage resources. Due to the severe resource constraints of space-based electronics and the unique application environment, the simplicity, efficiency and robustness of the decompression circuitry is also a key design consideration. Through comparative analysis current bitstream file compression technologies, this research suggests that the Lempel Ziv Oberhumer (LZO) compression algorithm is more suitable for satellite applications. This paper also delves into the compression process and format of the LZO compression algorithm, as well as the inherent characteristics of configuration bitstream files. We propose an improved algorithm based on LZO for bitstream file compression, which optimises the compression process by refining the format and reducing the offset. Furthermore, a low-cost, robust decompression hardware architecture is proposed based on this method. Experimental results show that the compression speed of the improved LZO algorithm is increased by 3%, the decompression hardware cost is reduced by approximately 60%, and the compression ratio is slightly reduced by 0.47%.展开更多

文摘Recent advances in earth science and exploration have made deepwater channel-levee systems a research focus.We collected and analyzed over 10000 km of two-dimensional multichannel seismic data from the offshore Indus Basin to identify channellevee systems at various hierarchical levels depending on their seismic reflection characteristics.Seismic facies analysis was integrated with well data to map the spatial distribution of channel-levee systems in the offshore Indus Basin across various geological periods,and the factors influencing their development were discussed.These systems within the basin were identified using a developed,refined three-tier classification method.The first-order system consists of multiple spatially stacked complexes,the second-order system continuously developed multistage channel-levee bodies,and the third-order system represents the smallest identifiable sedimentary units on seismic profiles.Our findings demonstrate the evolution of the offshore Indus Basin from a single-stage channel with lateral migration to multistage vertical channel stacking from the Miocene to the Pleistocene.Tectonic activities exert their effect on channel-levee systems through their influence on the relative sea level.They also trigger volcanic or seismic events and affect siliciclastic supply.Warm and humid climate conditions form large river systems,which aid in the transport of terrestrial debris to the basin margin.Most channel-levee systems are assumed to have formed during low sea-level periods.This study offers new insights into the formation and evolution of turbidite sedimentary systems in the offshore Indus Basin and presents a practical classification method for comprehending gravity-flow sedimentary configurations and deepwater hydrocarbon exploration.

文摘Solid oxide cells(SOCs),which include solid oxide fuel cells(SOFCs),symmetrical solid oxide cells(S-SOCs),and reversible solid oxide cells(R-SOCs),are considered key technologies for driving low-carbon and green revolution in the energy sector.Because of their clean,low-cost,and high-efficiency characteristics,SOCs have great potential for energy conversion and storage.However,the further development of SOC technologies faces challenges,such as a lack of long-term operational stability of the cell system,high material cost under high-temperature operating conditions,and limited catalytic effects at low temperatures.Recently,high-entropy materials(HEMs)have demonstrated excellent performance and wide application prospects in catalytic reactions,energy storage,supercapacitors,and other fields owing to their unique atomic arrangement and the four core effects(high mixed entropy stabilization effect,sluggish dif-fusion effect,lattice distortion effect,and“cocktail”effect).HEMs provide a new perspective for solving the aforementioned problems in the field of SOCs.This comprehensive review summarizes the applications of HEMs in the three fundamental components of SOCs:elec-trodes,electrolytes,and interconnects,focusing on the role of HEMs in enhancing catalytic activity and conductivity while mitigating harmful gas poisoning.In addition,this review proposes possible development directions for HEMs in SOCs based on the current re-search progress,providing valuable reference for high-entropy designs aimed at further enhancing the performance of SOCs.

文摘High-temperature industries,as the primary consumers of energy,are greatly concerned with energy savings.Designing refractory linings with low thermal conductivity to reduce heat dissipation through high-temperature furnace linings is a critical concern.In this study,a series of novel entropy-stabilized spinel materials are reported,and their potential applications in high-temperature industries are investigated.XRD and TEM results indicate that all materials possess a cubic spinel crystal structure with the■space group.Furthermore,these materials exhibit good phase stability at high temperatures.All entropy-stabilized spinel aggregates demonstrated high refractoriness(>1800℃)and a high load softening temperature(>1700℃).The impact of configurational entropy on the properties of entropy-stabilized spinel materials was also studied.As configurational entropy increased,the thermal conductivity of the entropy-stabilized spinel decreased,while slag corrosion resistance deteriorated.For the entropy-stabilized spinel with a configurational entropy value of 1.126R,it showed good high-temperature stability,reliable resistance to slag attack,and a low thermal conductivity of 2.776 W·m^(-1)·K^(-1)at 1000℃.

文摘Steel catenary riser represents the pioneering riser technology implemented in China’s deep-sea oil and gas opera-tions.Given the complex mechanical conditions of the riser,extensive research has been conducted on its dynamic analysis and structural design.This study investigates a deep-sea oil and gas field by developing a coupled model of a semi-submersible platform and steel catenary riser to analyze it mechanical behavior under extreme marine condi-tions.Through multi-objective optimization methodology,the study compares and analyzes suspension point tension and touchdown point stress under various conditions by modifying the suspension position,suspension angle,and catenary length.The optimal configuration parameters were determined:a suspension angle of 12°,suspension position in the southwest direction of the column,and a catenary length of approximately 2000 m.These findings elucidate the impact of configuration parameters on riser dynamic response and establish reasonable parameter layout ranges for adverse sea conditions,offering valuable optimization strategies for steel catenary riser deployment in domestic deep-sea oil and gas fields.

文摘To obtain the Ti_(p)with different aspect ratios,the Ti_(p)/Mg-5Zn-0.3Ca composite prepared by semi-solid stir casting was subjected to extrusion at 220℃,180℃,and 140℃,respectively.Then,the effect of the Ti_(p)’s aspect ratio on the microstructure,mechanical properties,work hardening and softening behaviors of Ti_(p)/Mg-5Zn-0.3Ca composites was investigated.The results indicated that the Ti_(p)could be elongated obviously after low-temperature extrusion,and the aspect ratio of which would reach to 13.7:1 as the extrusion temperature deceased to 140℃.Then the“Ti/Mg”layer-like structure was formed in the Ti_(p)/Mg-5Zn-0.3Ca composite.Accompanied with the elongation of Ti_(p),the dynamic recrystallized grains and dynamic precipitates were both refined significantly,however,the dynamic recrystallization rate changed a little.The elongated Ti_(p)endowed the Ti_(p)/Mg-5Zn-0.3Ca composites with better matching of strength and toughness without the sacrifice of elongation and bending strain.Both the work hardening rate and softening rate of Ti_(p)/Mg-5Zn-0.3Ca composites increased with the increasing aspect ratio of Ti_(p).The formation of“Ti/Mg”layer-like structure contributed to the redistribution of strain from large aggregations to a network-like distribution,which effectively suppresses the initiation and propagation of micro-cracks,thus enhancing the plasticity of the Ti_(p)/Mg-5Zn-0.3Ca composites.

文摘Electrocatalytic CO_(2)reduction(ECR)to produce value-added fuels and chemicals using renewable electricity is an emerging strategy to mitigate global warming and decrease reliance on fossil fuels.Among various ECR products,liquid oxygenates(Oxys)are especially attractive due to their high energy density,high safety and transportability that could be adapted to the existing infrastructure and transportation system.However,efficiently generating these highly reduced oxygen-containing products by ECR remains challenging due to the complexity of coupled proton and electron transfer processes.In recent years,in-depth studies of reaction mechanisms have advanced the design of catalysts and the regulation of reaction systems for ECR to produce Oxys,Here,by focusing on the production of typical Oxys,such as methanol,acetic acid,ethanol,acetone,n-propanol,and isopropanol,we outline various reaction paths and key intermediates for the electrochemical conversion of CO_(2)into these target products.We also summarize the current research status and recent advances in catalysts based on their elemental composition,and consider recent studies on the change of catalyst geometry and electronic structure,as well as the optimization of reaction systems to increase ECR performance.Finally,we analyze the challenges in the field of ECR to Oxys and provide an outlook on future directions for high-efficiency catalyst prediction and design,as well as the development of advanced reaction systems.

文摘In the context of the“dual carbon”goals,to address issues such as high energy consumption,high costs,and low power quality in the rapid development of electrified railways,this study focused on the China Railways High-Speed 5 Electric Multiple Unit and proposed a mathematical model and capacity optimization method for an onboard energy storage system using lithium batteries and supercapacitors as storage media.Firstly,considering the electrical characteristics,weight,and volume of the storage media,a mathematical model of the energy storage system was established.Secondly,to tackle problems related to energy consumption and power quality,an energy management strategy was proposed that comprehensively considers peak shaving and valley filling and power quality by controlling the charge/discharge thresholds of the storage system.Thecapacity optimization adopted a bilevel programming model,with the series/parallel number of storage modules as variables,considering constraints imposed by the Direct Current to Direct Current converter,train load,and space.An improved Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm and linear programming solver were used to solve specific cases.The results show that the proposed onboard energy storage system can effectively achieve energy savings,reduce consumption,and improve power qualitywhile meeting the load and space limitations of the train.
文摘Hydroxyapatite nanoparticles(HAP NPs)were synthesized by a one‐step hydrothermal method.The surface of HAP NPs was grafted-SH and-COOH chelating groups via in situ surface‐modification with iminodiacetic acid(IDA)and 3‐mercaptopropyl trimethoxysilane(MPS)to afford dual surface‐capped nano‐amendment HAPIDA/MPS.The structure of HAP‐IDA/MPS was characterized,and its adsorption performance for Hg^(2+),Cu^(2+),Zn^(2+),Ni^(2+),Co^(2+),and Cd^(2+)was evaluated.The total adsorption capacity of 0.10 g HAP‐IDA/MPS nano‐amendment for Hg^(2+),Cu^(2+),Zn^(2+),Ni^(2+),Co^(2+),and Cd^(2+)with an initial mass concentration of 20 mg·L^(-1) reached 13.7 mg·g^(-1),about 4.3 times as much as that of HAP.Notably,HAP‐IDA/MPS nano‐amendment displayed the highest immobilization rate for Hg^(2+),possibly because of its chemical reaction with-SH to form sulfide,possessing the lowest solubility product constant among a variety of metal sulfides.
文摘Filter capacitors play an important role in altern-ating current(AC)-line filtering for stabilizing voltage,sup-pressing harmonics,and improving power quality.However,traditional aluminum electrolytic capacitors(AECs)suffer from a large size,short lifespan,low power density,and poor reliability,which limits their use.In contrast,ultrafast supercapacitors(SCs)are ideal for replacing commercial AECs because of their extremely high power densities,fast charging and discharging,and excellent high-frequency re-sponse.We review the design principles and key parameters for ultrafast supercapacitors and summarize research pro-gress in recent years from the aspects of electrode materials,electrolytes,and device configurations.The preparation,structures,and frequency response performance of electrode materials mainly consisting of carbon materials such as graphene and carbon nanotubes,conductive polymers,and transition metal compounds,are focused on.Finally,future research directions for ultrafast SCs are suggested.

文摘The conformational and dynamical properties of a long semi-flexible active polymer chain confined in a circular cavity are studied by using Langevin dynamics simulation method.Results show that the steady radius of gyration of the polymer decreases monotonically with increasing the active force.Interestingly,the polymer forms stable compact spiral with directional rotation at the steady state when the active force is large.Both the radius of gyration and the angular velocity of the spiral are nearly independent of the cavity size,but show scaling relations with the active force and the polymer length.It is further found that the formation of the stable compact spiral in most cases is a two-step relaxation process,where the polymer first forms a metastable swelling quasi spiral and then transforms into the stable compacted spiral near the wall of the cavity.The relaxation time is mainly determined by the transformation of the swelling quasi spiral,and shows remarkable dependence on the size of the cavity.Specially,when the circumference of the circular is nearly equivalent to the polymer length,it is difficult for the polymer to form the compacted spiral,leading to a large relaxation time.The underlying mechanism of the formation of the compacted spiral is revealed.

文摘With the increase in the quantity and scale of Static Random-Access Memory Field Programmable Gate Arrays (SRAM-based FPGAs) for aerospace application, the volume of FPGA configuration bit files that must be stored has increased dramatically. The use of compression techniques for these bitstream files is emerging as a key strategy to alleviate the burden on storage resources. Due to the severe resource constraints of space-based electronics and the unique application environment, the simplicity, efficiency and robustness of the decompression circuitry is also a key design consideration. Through comparative analysis current bitstream file compression technologies, this research suggests that the Lempel Ziv Oberhumer (LZO) compression algorithm is more suitable for satellite applications. This paper also delves into the compression process and format of the LZO compression algorithm, as well as the inherent characteristics of configuration bitstream files. We propose an improved algorithm based on LZO for bitstream file compression, which optimises the compression process by refining the format and reducing the offset. Furthermore, a low-cost, robust decompression hardware architecture is proposed based on this method. Experimental results show that the compression speed of the improved LZO algorithm is increased by 3%, the decompression hardware cost is reduced by approximately 60%, and the compression ratio is slightly reduced by 0.47%.
文摘In recent years,cold-formed steel(CFS)built-up sections have gained a lot of attention in construction.This is mainly because of their structural efficiency and the design advantages they offer.They provide better loadbearing strength and show greater resistance to elastic instability.This study looks at both experimental and numerical analysis of built-up CFS columns.The columns were formed by joining two C-sections in different ways:back-to-back,face-to-face,and box arrangements.Each type was tested with different slenderness ratios.For the experiments,the back-to-back and box sections were connected using two rows of rivets.The face-to-face sections,on the other hand,were joined by welding.In order to improve axial strength and overall stability,all column samples were filled with ordinary concrete,conforming to class C25/30.The numerical modeling was done in ABAQUS to study themechanical behavior of the columns.This helped in understanding how different joining methods affect their axial compression performance.Analytical checkswere also carried out using Eurocode 3 for hollowsections and Eurocode 4 for concretefilled sections.The role of concrete confinement was examined as well,following American Concrete Institute(ACI)guidelines,for both face-to-face and box-shaped columns.Thenumerical results matched closely with the experimental findings,with variations of less than 5%.The study identified key failure modes such as local buckling and distortional buckling.It highlighted how section shape,type of connection,and concrete infill all play amajor role in improving the strength of built-up CFS columns.

文摘Increasing the sintering rate of powder compact is a critical challenge of powder metallurgical materials,and adjusting component distribution in particles aggregate present significant effect on the microstructure of sintered product,especially for multi-phase compact with local heterogeneity.Here,a case study of W–Ni–Co powder compact was adopted to illustrate the novel strategy to enhance the sintering of multi-phase compact with desired microstructure by adjusting the particle configurations.The plasma synthesis route was developed for the first time to independently adjust the configurations of W–Ni–Co nanopowders with core-shell and homogeneous structures,which facilitates to ascertain the sintering response induced exclusively by particle configurations.Comparison on sintering response further indicates that core-shell powder presents greatly promoted sintering than homogeneous one,and full-dense and uniform compact with grain size of 1.37μm was obtained by solid sintering,which is several to dozens of times smaller than that obtained by conventional liquid sintering.Theoretical and experimental Investigation on elemental immigration visualized the distinct mass diffusion behavior of powder compacts,and clarified the mass transport path promoted densification mechanism determined by powder configurations.Importantly,full-coherent phase interface induced superior strength and plasticity in alloy sintered using core-shell powder,which highlights the importance of microstructural regulation on improving the mechanical property that superior than most of previously reported tungsten heavy alloys.In summary,this work paves a new way for fast sintering of multi-phase compacts,and provides intrinsic understandings on densification mechanism of powder compact.

文摘As a highly reactive reaction intermediate,surface gallium hydride(Ga–H)has garnered significant attention due to its critical role in various catalytic reactions.However,the detailed experimental characterization of this unique species remains challenging.Recently,we have demonstrated that solid-state NMR can be an effective tool for studying surface Ga–H.In this work,we report a comparative solid-state NMR study on H_(2) activation over different Ga_(2)O_(3) polymorphs,specificallyα-,β-andγ-Ga_(2)O_(3).^(1)H solid-state NMR enabled the identification of Ga–H species formed on all the three samples following high-temperature H_(2) treatment.The characteristic ^(1)H NMR signals of Ga–H species are resolved using J-coupling-based double-resonance NMR methods,revealing highly similar lineshapes of Ga–H for all the Ga_(2)O_(3) samples.This suggests potentially similar surface Ga–H configurations among different Ga_(2)O_(3) polymorphs.In addition,the local hydrogen environments on the oxide surfaces are further explored using two-dimensional(2D)^(1)H–^(1)H homonuclear correlation spectra,revealing multiple spatially proximate Ga–H and Ga–H/–OH pairs on different Ga_(2)O_(3) polymorphs.These findings provide insights into the potential mechanism of H_(2) dissociation.Overall,this work offers new perspectives on the local structure of surface Ga–H on Ga_(2)O_(3),and the analytical approach presented here can be further extended to the study of other Ga-based catalysts and other metal hydride species.

文摘Iron removal from zinc leachate in hydrometallurgy produces large volumes of low-grade,impurity-laden iron waste,posing significant environmental challenges.Magnetite precipitation offers a novel method for iron removal and resource recycling in zinc hydrometallurgy.However,the chemical similarity between ferrous and zinc ions,along with high zinc concentrations,causes zinc co-precipitation,challenging its application.To address this issue,this study utilized electron microscopy to observe key intermediate products in magnetite crystallization and employed EXAFS(extended X-ray absorption fine structure)to analyze their evolutionary mechanisms and zinc-binding configurations.The results indicate that the intermediate products during magnetite formation are sequentially green rust,feroxyhyte(δ-FeOOH),and weakly crystalline nanoparticles,and further analysis revealed that their transformation follows the dissolution-recrystallization mechanism.Furthermore,it was found that intermediate products such as green rust exhibit strong binding with zinc(via adsorption and lattice substitution),which was confirmed as a significant reason for the difficulty in separating zinc from magnetite.This study elucidates the transformation process of intermediate products during magnetite formation and,for the first time,reveals the binding configurations of zinc with these key intermediate products.This has significant implications for the development and optimization of new technologies for the efficient separation of iron and zinc during the magnetite precipitation process.
