文摘Developing alloys with exceptional strength-ductility combinations across a broad temperature range is crucial for advanced structural applications.The emerging face-centered cubic medium-entropy alloys(MEAs)demonstrate outstanding mechanical properties at both ambient and cryogenic temperatures.They are anticipated to extend their applicability to elevated temperatures,owing to their inherent advantages in leveraging multiple strengthening and deformation mechanisms.Here,a dual heterostructure,comprising of heterogeneous grain structure with heterogeneous distribution of the micro-scale Nb-rich Laves phases,is introduced in a CrCoNi-based MEA through thermo-mechanical processing.Additionally,a high-density nano-coherentγ’phase is introduced within the grains through isothermal aging treatments.The superior thermal stability of the heterogeneously distributed precipitates enables the dual heterostructure to persist at temperatures up to 1073 K,allowing the MEA to maintain excellent mechanical properties across a wide temperature range.The yield strength of the dual-heterogeneous-structured MEA reaches up to 1.2 GPa,1.1 GPa,0.8 GPa,and 0.6 GPa,coupled with total elongation values of 28.6%,28.4%,12.6%,and 6.1%at 93 K,298 K,873 K,and 1073 K,respectively.The high yield strength primar-ily stems from precipitation strengthening and hetero-deformation-induced strengthening.The high flow stress and low stacking fault energy of the dual-heterogeneous-structured MEA promote the formation of high-density stacking faults and nanotwins during deformation from 93 K to 1073 K,and their density increase with decreasing deformation temperature.This greatly contributes to the enhanced strainhardening capability and ductility across a wide temperature range.This study offers a practical solution for designing dual-heterogeneous-structured MEAs with both high yield strength and large ductility across a wide temperature range.

文摘The technology of solid-state lighting has developed for decades in various industries.Phosphor,as an element part,determines the application domain of lighting products.For instance,blue and redemitting phosphors are required in the process of plant supplementing light,arrow-band emitting phosphors are applied to backlight displays,etc.In this work,a Bi^(3+)-activated blue phosphor was obtained in a symmetrical and co mpact crystal structure of Gd3Sb07(GSO).Then,the co-doping strategy of alkali metal ions(Li^(+),Na^(+),and K^(+))was used to optimize the performance.The result shows that the photoluminescence intensity is increased by 2.1 times and 1.3 times respectively by introducing Li~+and K^(+)ions.Not only that,it also achieves narrow-band emitting with the full width of half-maximum(FWHM)reaching 42 nm through Na^(+)doping,and its excitation peak position also shifts from 322 to 375 nm,which can be well excited by near-ultraviolet(NUV)light emitting diode(LED)chips(365 nm).Meanwhile,the electroluminescence spectrum of GSO:0.6 mol%Bi^(3+),3 wt%Na^(+)matches up to 93.39%of the blue part of the absorption spectrum of chlorophyll a.In summary,the Bi^(3+)-activated blue phosphor reported in this work can synchronously meet the requirements of plant light replenishment and field emission displays.

文摘The recently developed SCCDS composite tube,a novel variant of the pipe-in-pipe(PIP)structure,demonstrates strong potential for subsea pipeline applications.However,theoretical research regarding its structural behavior under compression-torsion loading and bearing capacity calculations remains limited,particularly concerning the influence of dual hydraulic pressures during operation.This study examines the impact of dual hydraulic pressures on the compressive-torsional behavior of SCCDS composite tubes.A finite element(FE)model was developed and validated against experimental results,comparing failure modes,full-range loading curves,and bearing capacity to elucidate the working mechanism under dual pressures.A parametric study was then conducted to examine the effects of geometric-physical parameters.Results demonstrate that dual pressures substantially enhance the bearing capacity of sandwich concrete by increasing the normal contact stress at the interface.Increasing concrete strength(f_(c))provides minimal enhancement to torsional resistance compared to the yielding strengths of outer tube(f_(yo))and inner tube(f_(yi)).Higher diameter-to-thickness ratios of outer tube(D_(o)/t_(o))and inner tube(D_(i)/t_(i))significantly reduce torsional capacity.At 1000 m water depth,increasing the D_(o)/t_(o)ratio from 27.5 to 36.67,55,and 110 reduces bearing capacity by 11.17%,23.08%,and 36.14%respectively.Strict measures should be implemented to prevent substantial reductions in strength and ductility for SCCDS composite tubes with large hollow ratios(e.g.,χ=0.849)or high axial compression ratios(e.g.,n=0.8).The study proposes a modified calculation method for determining N-T curves that incorporates dual hydraulic pressure effects,providing guidance for performance evaluation of novel SCCDS composite tubes in deep-sea engineering.

文摘Drug-eluting magnesium(Mg)alloy stents have a slower degradation rate and lower restenosis rate compared with uncoated stents,demonstrating good clinical efficacy.However,the release of anti-hyperplasia drugs from coatings delays endothelial tissue repair,thus leading to late stent thrombosis.To address these issues,a dual self-healed coating with various biological properties was fabricated on magnesium fluoride/polydopamine(MgF_(2)/PDA)-treated Mg alloys by spraying-assisted layer-by-layer(LBL)self-assembly of chitosan(CS),gallic acid(GA),and 3-aminobenzeneboronic acid-modified hyaluronic acid(HA-ABBA).The LBL coating,approximately 1.50μm thick,exhibited a uniform morphology with good adhesion strength(~1065 mN).The annual corrosion rate(Pi)of LBL samples was~1400 times slower than that of the Mg substrate,due to the physical barrier function provided by MgF_(2)/PDA layers and the dual self-healed ability of LBL layers.The rapid self-healing ability(with a healing period of~4 h under dynamic/static conditions)resulted from the synergistic interplay between the recombination of diverse chemical bonds within the LBL coating and the coordination of LBL-released GA with Mg2+,as corroborated by computer simulations.Compared with the drug-eluting coatings,the LBL sample demonstrated substantial advantages in anti-oxidation,anti-denaturation of fibrinogen,anti-platelet adhesion,anti-inflammation,anti-hyperplasia,and promoted-endothelialization.These benefits effectively address the limitations associated with drug-eluting coatings.

文摘Micro-expressions(ME)recognition is a complex task that requires advanced techniques to extract informative features fromfacial expressions.Numerous deep neural networks(DNNs)with convolutional structures have been proposed.However,unlike DNNs,shallow convolutional neural networks often outperform deeper models in mitigating overfitting,particularly with small datasets.Still,many of these methods rely on a single feature for recognition,resulting in an insufficient ability to extract highly effective features.To address this limitation,in this paper,an Improved Dual-stream Shallow Convolutional Neural Network based on an Extreme Gradient Boosting Algorithm(IDSSCNN-XgBoost)is introduced for ME Recognition.The proposed method utilizes a dual-stream architecture where motion vectors(temporal features)are extracted using Optical Flow TV-L1 and amplify subtle changes(spatial features)via EulerianVideoMagnification(EVM).These features are processed by IDSSCNN,with an attention mechanism applied to refine the extracted effective features.The outputs are then fused,concatenated,and classified using the XgBoost algorithm.This comprehensive approach significantly improves recognition accuracy by leveraging the strengths of both temporal and spatial information,supported by the robust classification power of XgBoost.The proposed method is evaluated on three publicly available ME databases named Chinese Academy of Sciences Micro-expression Database(CASMEII),Spontaneous Micro-Expression Database(SMICHS),and Spontaneous Actions and Micro-Movements(SAMM).Experimental results indicate that the proposed model can achieve outstanding results compared to recent models.The accuracy results are 79.01%,69.22%,and 68.99%on CASMEII,SMIC-HS,and SAMM,and the F1-score are 75.47%,68.91%,and 63.84%,respectively.The proposed method has the advantage of operational efficiency and less computational time.

文摘Aqueous zinc-halogen batteries are promising candidates for large-scale energy storage due to their abundant resources,intrinsic safety,and high theoretical capacity.Nevertheless,the uncontrollable zinc dendrite growth and spontaneous shuttle effect of active species have prohibited their practical implementation.Herein,a double-layered protective film based on zinc-ethylenediamine tetramethylene phosphonic acid(ZEA)artificial film and ZnF2-rich solid electrolyte interphase(SEI)layer has been successfully fabricated on the zinc metal anode via electrode/electrolyte synergistic optimization.The ZEA-based artificial film shows strong affinity for the ZnF2-rich SEI layer,therefore effectively suppressing the SEI breakage and facilitating the construction of double-layered protective film on the zinc metal anode.Such double-layered architecture not only modulates Zn2+flux and suppresses the zinc dendrite growth,but also blocks the direct contact between the metal anode and electrolyte,thus mitigating the corrosion from the active species.When employing optimized metal anodes and electrolytes,the as-developed zinc-(dual)halogen batteries present high areal capacity and satisfactory cycling stability.This work provides a new avenue for developing aqueous zinc-(dual)halogen batteries.
文摘Background:Gastric cancer(GC)remains a global health burden and is often characterized by heterogeneous molecular profiles and resistance to conventional therapies.The phosphoinositide 3-kinase and PI3K and Janus kinase(JAK)signal transducer and activator of transcription(JAK-STAT)pathways play pivotal roles in GC progression,making them attractive targets for therapeutic interventions.Methods:This study applied a computational and molecular dynamics simulation approach to identify and characterize SBL-JP-0004 as a potential dual inhibitor of JAK2 and PI3KCD kinases.KATOIII and SNU-5 GC cells were used for in vitro evaluation.Results:SBL-JP-0004 exhibited a robust binding affinity for JAK2 and PI3KCD kinases,as evidenced by molecular docking scores and molecular dynamics simulations.Binding interactions and Gibbs binding free energy estimates confirmed stable and favorable interactions with target proteins.SBL-JP-0004 displayed an half-maximal inhibitory concentration(IC_(50))value of 118.9 nM against JAK2 kinase and 200.9 nM against PI3KCD enzymes.SBL-JP-0004 exhibited potent inhibition of cell proliferation in KATOIII and SNU-5 cells,with half-maximal growth inhibitory concentration(GI50)values of 250.8 and 516.3 nM,respectively.A significant elevation in the early phase apoptosis(28.53%in KATOIII cells and 26.85%in SNU-5 cells)and late phase apoptosis(17.37%in KATOIII cells and 10.05%in SNU-5 cells)were observed with SBL-JP-0004 treatment compared to 2.1%and 2.83%in their respective controls.Conclusion:The results highlight SBL-JP-0004 as a promising dual inhibitor targeting JAK2 and PI3KCD kinases for treating GC and warrant further preclinical and clinical investigations to validate its utility in clinical settings.
文摘Retinal blood vessel segmentation is crucial for diagnosing ocular and cardiovascular diseases.Although the introduction of U-Net in 2015 by Olaf Ronneberger significantly advanced this field,yet issues like limited training data,imbalance data distribution,and inadequate feature extraction persist,hindering both the segmentation performance and optimal model generalization.Addressing these critical issues,the DEFFA-Unet is proposed featuring an additional encoder to process domain-invariant pre-processed inputs,thereby improving both richer feature encoding and enhanced model generalization.A feature filtering fusion module is developed to ensure the precise feature filtering and robust hybrid feature fusion.In response to the task-specific need for higher precision where false positives are very costly,traditional skip connections are replaced with the attention-guided feature reconstructing fusion module.Additionally,innovative data augmentation and balancing methods are proposed to counter data scarcity and distribution imbalance,further boosting the robustness and generalization of the model.With a comprehensive suite of evaluation metrics,extensive validations on four benchmark datasets(DRIVE,CHASEDB1,STARE,and HRF)and an SLO dataset(IOSTAR),demonstrate the proposed method’s superiority over both baseline and state-of-the-art models.Particularly the proposed method significantly outperforms the compared methods in cross-validation model generalization.

文摘In this paper,we propose hierarchical attention dual network(DNet)for fine-grained image classification.The DNet can randomly select pairs of inputs from the dataset and compare the differences between them through hierarchical attention feature learning,which are used simultaneously to remove noise and retain salient features.In the loss function,it considers the losses of difference in paired images according to the intra-variance and inter-variance.In addition,we also collect the disaster scene dataset from remote sensing images and apply the proposed method to disaster scene classification,which contains complex scenes and multiple types of disasters.Compared to other methods,experimental results show that the DNet with hierarchical attention is robust to different datasets and performs better.
文摘This paper introduces a computational cognitive architecture that serves as a comprehensive computational theory of the human mind,from cognitive science and computational psychology.The cognitive architecture(named Clarion)has been justified by,and validated against,psychological data,findings,and theoretical constructs.One important theoretical background for it is the dual-process theories,which led to its overall two-level structuring in a hybrid neuro-symbolic way.Furthermore,given the recent advances in AI and computing technology,LLMs are being incorporated into the model to better capture human intuition and instinct(and implicit processes in general),in order to further enhance Clarion.Integrating Clarion and LLMs can also help to develop AI systems that are more capable,more reliable,and more human-like.Overall,the paper advocates a multidisciplinary approach towards developing better models for cognitive science and for AI.

文摘Programmed cell death protein 1/programmed cell death 1 ligand 1(PD-1/PD-L1)protein-protein interaction represents an appealing target for cancer therapy.Several antibody drugs have been developed to target this interaction,but they are less effective in the treatment of melanoma.To overcome the limitations,the first proteolysis-targeting chimeric(PROTAC)small molecules simultaneously targeting PD-L1and Src homology phosphotyrosyl phosphatase 2(SHP2)were designed.By employment of PD-1/PD-L1inhibitors BMS01 or BMS-37,SHP2 inhibitor SHP099 and E3 ligase ligands,a series of potent PD-L1 and SHP2 dual PROTACs were synthesized.The most promising compounds BS-7C-V2 and BS327V2 efficiently induced PD-L1 and SHP2 degradation and demonstrated significantly improved immune potency in B16-F10 and A375 cell lines.More importantly,the efficacy of BS-7C-V2 and BS327V2 in a B16-F10 transplanted mouse model was further evaluated based on their degradation ability in vivo.Taken together,our work qualifies the new dual PROTACs as a potent degrader of PD-L1 and SHP2.The biological and mechanism investigations with BS-7C-V2 and BS327V2 prove that dual PROTACs can play an anti-tumor role in vivo and in vitro,and can provide a new therapeutic strategy for melanoma.

文摘Climate downscaling is used to transform large-scale meteorological data into small-scale data with enhanced detail,which finds wide applications in climate modeling,numerical weather forecasting,and renewable energy.Although deeplearning-based downscaling methods effectively capture the complex nonlinear mapping between meteorological data of varying scales,the supervised deep-learning-based downscaling methods suffer from insufficient high-resolution data in practice,and unsupervised methods struggle with accurately inferring small-scale specifics from limited large-scale inputs due to small-scale uncertainty.This article presents DualDS,a dual-learning framework utilizing a Generative Adversarial Network–based neural network and subgrid-scale auxiliary information for climate downscaling.Such a learning method is unified in a two-stream framework through up-and downsamplers,where the downsampler is used to simulate the information loss process during the upscaling,and the upsampler is used to reconstruct lost details and correct errors incurred during the upscaling.This dual learning strategy can eliminate the dependence on high-resolution ground truth data in the training process and refine the downscaling results by constraining the mapping process.Experimental findings demonstrate that DualDS is comparable to several state-of-the-art deep learning downscaling approaches,both qualitatively and quantitatively.Specifically,for a single surface-temperature data downscaling task,our method is comparable with other unsupervised algorithms with the same dataset,and we can achieve a 0.469 dB higher peak signal-to-noise ratio,0.017 higher structural similarity,0.08 lower RMSE,and the best correlation coefficient.In summary,this paper presents a novel approach to addressing small-scale uncertainty issues in unsupervised downscaling processes.

文摘Accelerating the separation of carriers in the heterojunction plays vital role in the photoelectrocatalytic(PEC)process,yet it remains a challenging undertaking.Herein,a MOF-on-MOF based dual S-scheme heterojunction(BiVO_(4)/NH_(2)-MIL-125(Ti)/NH_(2)-MIL-53(Fe),denoted as BVO/NM125/NM53)was rationally designed and prepared for PEC removing and detoxification of organic contaminants(phenol,tetracycline hydrochloride,ciprofloxacin and norfloxacin).The S-scheme heterojunction was double confirmed by DFT calculation and XPS analysis.The charge transfer resistance of BVO/NM125/NM53 photoanode decreases to 1/11 of bare BiVO_(4) photoanode.Meanwhile,the photocurrent densitywas 3 times higher,demonstrating a marked improvement in carrier separation efficiency due to dual S-scheme heterojunction.The photoanode achieved 94.3%removal of phenol within 60 min and maintained stable performance over 10 consecutive cycles,demonstrating good PEC efficiency and structural stability.The BVO/NM125/NM53 photoanode also showed effectiveness in removing antibiotics,with chlorophyll fluorescence imaging confirming a significant reduction in the ecotoxicity of intermediates.For example,wheat seed germination,growth,chlorophyll and Carotenoid production were not affected,which was similar to that of deionized water.Radical trapping experiments and electron paramagnetic resonance(EPR)analysis identified·O_(2)^(-)and·OH as the primary active species.This work demonstrates the effectiveness of developing MOF-on-MOF heterojunctions for visible-light response and enhancing charge separation in PEC.

文摘Polymer binders possess significant potential in alleviating the volume expansion issues of silicon-based anodes,yet remain challenging due to insufficient interfacial interactions with individual components(Si,C,and Cu)of the anode.Herein,we report the synthesis of a stable three-dimensional network structure of the PAA-PEA(polyacrylic acid-polyether amines)polymer binder through intermolecular physicochemical dual cross-linking.By incorporating polar functional groups,the binder molecules not only form strong C-O-Si,N-Si,O=C-O-C,and O=C-O-Cu covalent bonds but also enhance non-covalent interactions with Si,C,and Cu,thereby improving adhesion between the binder and each interface of the anode.Furthermore,weak hydrogen bonds,acting as"sacrificial bonds",dissipate energy and disperse accumulated stress,improving the material flexibility.Due to the high mechanical stability of the framework,which combines both rigidity and flexibility and the coupling effect at the three interfaces,the movement and separation of electrode components are effectively restrained,significantly enhancing the cycling stability of silicon-graphite anodes.The PAA-PEA 2000 electrode exhibits a capacity retention of 78% after 500 cycles at a current density of 0.2 A g^(-1).This work provides insights into the mechanism of binders and guides the design of polymer binders for high-performance Si-based electrodes.
