The Shenhu area of the South China Sea hold significant gas hydrate resource potential;however, the relationship between seismic velocity dispersion, attenuation properties, and gas-hydrate saturation remains insufficiently understood. Furthermore, a significant mismatch exists between the real seismic angle gather near a well and the synthetic angle gather generated using the convolution method, and this discrepancy may arise from the seismic velocity dispersion and attenuation characteristics of the gas hydrate-bearing formations. In this paper, we develop a rock physics model that integrates White's and Dvorkin's models, accounting for varied types of gas-hydrate occurrence states,specifically tailored to the gas hydrate-bearing formations in the Shenhu area. This model is calibrated with well log data and employed to investigate how gas-hydrate saturation influences seismic velocity dispersion and attenuation. Numerical analysis reveals the coexistence of two types of gas-hydrate occurrence states in the region: high gas-hydrate saturation formations are dominated by loadbearing-type gas hydrate, and formations containing both gas hydrate and free gas may exhibit either load-bearing or pore-filling types. The seismic velocity dispersion and attenuation properties vary significantly depending on the gas-hydrate occurrence state. We further apply the proposed model to generate seismic velocity and attenuation logs at various frequencies. These logs are used in seismic forward modeling employing both the convolution method and the propagator matrix method. Well tie analysis indicates that the synthetic angle gather incorporating attenuation via the propagator matrix method aligns more closely with the real seismic angle gather than the convolution method. This study provides valuable insights into frequency-dependent amplitude versus offset(AVO) analysis and the seismic interpretation of gas hydrate-bearing formations in the South China Sea.展开更多

文摘Multiphase flow in porous rock is of great importance in the application of many industrial processes,including reservoir delineation,enhanced oil recovery,and CO_(2) sequestration.However,previous research typically investigated the dispersive behaviors when rock saturated with single or two-phase fluids and conducted limited studies on three-phase immiscible fluids.This study investigated the seismic dispersion,attenuation,and reflection features of seismic waves in three-phase immiscible fluidsaturated porous rocks.First,we proposed the calculation formulas of effective fluid modulus and effective fluid viscosity of multiphase immiscible fluids by taking into account the capillary pressure,reservoir wettability,and relative permeability simultaneously.Then,we analysed the frequencydependent behaviors of three-phase immiscible fluid-saturated porous rock under different fluid proportion cases using the Chapman multi-scale model.Next,the seismic responses are analysed using a four-layer model.The results indicate that the relative permeability,capillary pressure parameter,and fluid proportions are all significantly affect dispersion and attenuation.Comparative analyses demonstrate that dispersion and attenuation can be observed within the frequency range of seismic exploration for a lower capillary parameter a3 and higher oil content.Seismic responses reveal that the reflection features,such as travel time,seismic amplitude,and waveform of the bottom reflections of saturated rock and their underlying reflections are significantly dependent on fluid proportions and capillary parameters.For validation,the numerical results are further verified using the log data and real seismic data.This numerical analysis helps to further understand the wave propagation characteristics for a porous rock saturated with multiphase immiscible fluids.

文摘Missiles provide long-range precision strike capabilities and have become a cornerstone of modern warfare.The contrail clouds formed by missile during their active flight phase present significant chal-lenges to high-altitude environmental observation and target detection and tracking.Existing studies primarily focus on specific airspace regions,leaving critical gaps in understanding the effects of long dispersion times,wide altitude ranges,and variable atmospheric conditions on missile contrail clouds.To address these gaps,this article develops a numerical method based on the Lagrangian random walk model,which incorporates various velocity variation terms,including particle velocity caused by the difference of wind field,by the thermal motion of local gas molecules and by random collisions between contrail cloud particles to capture the influence of environmental wind fields,atmospheric conditions,and particle concentrations on the motion of contrail cloud particles.A general coordinate system aligned with the missile's flight trajectory is employed to represent particle distribution characteristics.The proposed method is in good agreement with the conducted experiments as well as with the available numerical simulations.The results demonstrate that the proposed model effectively simulates the dispersion state of contrail clouds,accurately reflecting the impact of large-scale wind field variations and altitude changes with high computational efficiency.Additionally,simulation results indicate that the increased distance between gas molecules in rarefied environments facilitates enhanced particle dispersion,while larger particles exhibit a faster dispersion rate due to their greater mass.

文摘Fine particulatematter(PM_(2.5))samples were collected in two neighboring cities,Beijing and Baoding,China.High-concentration events of PM_(2.5) in which the average mass concentration exceeded 75μg/m^(3) were frequently observed during the heating season.Dispersion Normalized Positive Matrix Factorization was applied for the source apportionment of PM_(2.5) as minimize the dilution effects of meteorology and better reflect the source strengths in these two cities.Secondary nitrate had the highest contribution for Beijing(37.3%),and residential heating/biomass burning was the largest for Baoding(27.1%).Secondary nitrate,mobile,biomass burning,district heating,oil combustion,aged sea salt sources showed significant differences between the heating and non-heating seasons in Beijing for same period(2019.01.10–2019.08.22)(Mann-Whitney Rank Sum Test P<0.05).In case of Baoding,soil,residential heating/biomass burning,incinerator,coal combustion,oil combustion sources showed significant differences.The results of Pearson correlation analysis for the common sources between the two cities showed that long-range transported sources and some sources with seasonal patterns such as oil combustion and soil had high correlation coefficients.Conditional Bivariate Probability Function(CBPF)was used to identify the inflow directions for the sources,and joint-PSCF(Potential Source Contribution Function)was performed to determine the common potential source areas for sources affecting both cities.These models facilitated a more precise verification of city-specific influences on PM_(2.5) sources.The results of this study will aid in prioritizing air pollution mitigation strategies during the heating season and strengthening air quality management to reduce the impact of downwind neighboring cities.

文摘Existing studies indicate that gas hydrate-bearing formations exhibit notable seismic velocity dispersion and attenuation. The Shenhu area of the South China Sea hold significant gas hydrate resource potential;however, the relationship between seismic velocity dispersion, attenuation properties, and gas-hydrate saturation remains insufficiently understood. Furthermore, a significant mismatch exists between the real seismic angle gather near a well and the synthetic angle gather generated using the convolution method, and this discrepancy may arise from the seismic velocity dispersion and attenuation characteristics of the gas hydrate-bearing formations. In this paper, we develop a rock physics model that integrates White's and Dvorkin's models, accounting for varied types of gas-hydrate occurrence states,specifically tailored to the gas hydrate-bearing formations in the Shenhu area. This model is calibrated with well log data and employed to investigate how gas-hydrate saturation influences seismic velocity dispersion and attenuation. Numerical analysis reveals the coexistence of two types of gas-hydrate occurrence states in the region: high gas-hydrate saturation formations are dominated by loadbearing-type gas hydrate, and formations containing both gas hydrate and free gas may exhibit either load-bearing or pore-filling types. The seismic velocity dispersion and attenuation properties vary significantly depending on the gas-hydrate occurrence state. We further apply the proposed model to generate seismic velocity and attenuation logs at various frequencies. These logs are used in seismic forward modeling employing both the convolution method and the propagator matrix method. Well tie analysis indicates that the synthetic angle gather incorporating attenuation via the propagator matrix method aligns more closely with the real seismic angle gather than the convolution method. This study provides valuable insights into frequency-dependent amplitude versus offset(AVO) analysis and the seismic interpretation of gas hydrate-bearing formations in the South China Sea.

文摘Polyvinylidene fluoride(PVDF)/garnet composite polymer electrolytes(CPEs) have shown great potential in the development of solid-state lithium metal batteries(SSLMBs) due to their excellent flexibility, high ionic conductivity and superior mechanical strength.However, uneven dispersion of garnet fillers in CPEs would lead to deterioration of lithium metal batteries(LMBs) performance and severely limit their widespread application. Considering the rapidly growing research of addressing above-mentioned issue, herein, recent progress in the design and fabrication of uniformly dispersed fillers in PVDF/garnet CPEs for high-performance SSLMBs is summarized. We firstly analyze the mechanism for the aggregation of inorganic fillers, and provide a detailed introduction to the strategies for solving the uneven dispersion of nanoparticles in solid electrolytes. Moreover, we also comprehensively summarize their applications in PVDF/garnet electrolytes and their impact on the electrochemical performance of SSLMBs. Finally, the application challenges and future prospects of PVDF/garnet CPEs in SSLMBs were also proposed to promote their further development. It is anticipated that this review could inspire ongoing research interest in rational designing and fabricating novel CPEs for high-performance SSLMBs.

文摘High-rise buildings form deep urban street canyons and restrict the dispersion of vehicle emissions,posing severe health risks to the public by aggravating roadside air quality.Field measurements are important for understanding the dispersion process of tailpipe emissions in street canyons,while a major challenge is the lack of a suitable tracer gas.Carbon dioxide(CO_(2)),which is safe to the public and inexpensive to obtain,can be reliably measured by existing gas analysers.This study investigated the suitability of using CO_(2)as a tracer gas for characterising vehicle emission dispersion in a real-world street canyon.The tracer gas was released via a line or point source,whose dispersion was characterised by a sensors network comprising low-cost air quality sensors.The results showed that the CO_(2)contained in the exhaust gas of a test vehicle itself had unmeasurable effect at roadsides.Both the line and point sources produced obvious CO_(2)level elevations at approximately 30 s after the test vehicle passed by.In addition,for both line and point sources,the CO_(2)elevations were much more distinct at the roadside next to tailpipe exit than the opposite side,and were higher at 0.8 m than 1.6 m above the ground.The present study demonstrated that using CO_(2)as a tracer gas is feasible for investigating vehicle emission dispersion in real-world street canyons.Future studies are needed to improve the gas release rate of the developed tracer gas systems for more reliable measurements and larger street canyons.

文摘In Rayleigh wave exploration,the inversion of dispersion curves is a crucial step for obtaining subsurface stratigraphic information,characterized by its multi-parameter and multi-extremum nature.Local optimization algorithms used in dispersion curve inversion are highly dependent on the initial model and are prone to being trapped in local optima,while classical global optimization algorithms often suffer from slow convergence and low solution accuracy.To address these issues,this study introduces the Osprey Optimization Algorithm(OOA),known for its strong global search and local exploitation capabilities,into the inversion of dispersion curves to enhance inversion performance.In noiseless theoretical models,the OOA demonstrates excellent inversion accuracy and stability,accurately recovering model parameters.Even in noisy models,OOA maintains robust performance,achieving high inversion precision under high-noise conditions.In multimode dispersion curve tests,OOA effectively handles higher modes due to its efficient global and local search capabilities,and the inversion results show high consistency with theoretical values.Field data from the Wyoming region in the United States and a landfill site in Italy further verify the practical applicability of the OOA.Comprehensive test results indicate that the OOA outperforms the Particle Swarm Optimization(PSO)algorithm,providing a highly accurate and reliable inversion strategy for dispersion curve inversion.

文摘In this paper,the dispersion,attenuation,and bandgap characteristics of in-plane coupled Bloch waves in one-dimensional piezoelectric semiconductor(PSC)phononic crystals are investigated,emphasizing the influence of positive-negative(PN)junctions.Unlike piezoelectric phononic crystals,the coupled Bloch waves in PSC phononic crystals are attenuated due to their semiconductor properties,and thus the solution of Bloch waves becomes more complicated.The transfer matrix of the phononic crystal unit cell is obtained using the state transfer equation.By applying the Bloch theorem for periodic structures,the dispersion relation of the coupled Bloch waves is derived,and the dispersion,attenuation,and bandgap are obtained in the complex wave number domain.It is found that the influence of the PN junction cannot be neglected.Moreover,the effects of the PN junction under different apparent wave numbers and steady-state carrier concentrations are provided.This indicates the feasibility of adjusting the propagation characteristics of Bloch waves through the regulation of the PN heterojunction.

文摘An innovative method of hot compression bonding is proposed in this work for the joining of 9Cr oxide dispersion strengthened(ODS)alloy and 9Cr reduced-activation ferritic/martensitic(RAFM)alloy.The microstructural evolution of the bonding interface was investigated by scanning electron microscopy(SEM),electron back-scattered diffraction(EBSD),and transmission electron microscopy(TEM).The results verify that the pinning effect of nano-oxides particles(NPs)in 9Cr ODS alloy significantly enhances its dynamic recrystallization(DRX)temperature and deformation resistance.Continuous DRX(CDRX)first occurred on the 9Cr RAFM alloy side,and the areas near the bonding interface were composed of recrystallized grains.With increasing strain,CDRX also showed up on the 9Cr ODS alloy side.Inevitable slight oxidation occurred at the bonding interface during the hot compression bonding(HCB)process,and the interfacial oxides transformed from initial coarse CrO to TiO and finally to Y-Ti-O nanoparticles with sizes comparable to pre-existing NPs dispersed in the 9Cr ODS alloy matrix.It is believed that interfacial oxide transformation and grain structure consistency contributed to the excellent interface healing of the two dissimilar alloy pieces.The effectiveness of the bonding was tested by tensile tests and fractography analysis,revealing that ideal metallurgical bonding could be achieved under a controlled strain level of 10%at 800℃ followed by soaking at 1000℃ for 4 h.

文摘Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS)is a widely used technique to monitor the electrical properties of a catalyst under electrocatalytic conditions.Although it is extensively used for research in electrocatalysis,its effectiveness and power have not been fully harnessed to elucidate complex interfacial processes.Herein,we use the frequency dispersion parameter,n,which is extracted from EIS measurements(C_(s)=af^(n+1),-2<n<-1),to describe the dispersion characteristics of capacitance and interfacial properties of Co_(3)O_(4) before the onset of oxygen evolution reaction(OER)in alkaline conditions.We first prove that the n-value is sensitive to the interfacial electronic changes associated with Co redox processes and surface reconstruction.The n-value decreases by increasing the specific/active surface area of the catalysts.We further modify the interfacial properties by changing different components,i.e.,replacing the proton with deuterium,adding ethanol as a new oxidant,and changing the cation in the electrolyte.Intriguingly,the n-value can identify different influences on the interfacial process of proton transfer,the decrease and blocking of oxidized Co species,and the interfacial water structure.We demonstrate that the n-value extracted from EIS measurements is sensitive to the kinetic isotope effect,electrolyte cation,adsorbate surface coverage of oxidized Co species,and the interfacial water structure.Thus,it can be helpful to differentiate the multiple factors affecting the catalyst interface.These findings convey that the frequency dispersion of capacitance is a convenient and useful method to uncover the interfacial properties under electrocatalytic conditions,which helps to advance the understanding of the interfaceactivity relationship.

文摘The wave-induced fluid flow(WIFF) occurring in the ubiquitous layered porous media(e.g.,shales)usually causes the appreciable seismic energy dissipation,which further leads to the frequency dependence of wave velocity(i.e.,dispersion) and elastic anisotropy parameters.The relevant knowledge is of great importance for geofluid discrimination and hydrocarbon exploration in the porous shale reservoirs.We derive the wave equations for a periodic layered transversely isotropy medium with a vertical axis of symmetry(VTI) concurrently with the annular cracks(PLPC medium) based on the periodic-layered model and anisotropic Biot's theory,which simultaneously incorporate the effects of microscopic squirt fluid flow,mesoscopic interlayer fluid flow and macroscopic global fluid flow.Notably,the microscopic squirt shorten fluid flow emerges between the annular-shaped cracks and stiff pores,which generates one attenuation peak.Specifically,we first establish the stress-strain relationship and pore fluid pressure in a PLPC medium,and then use them to derive the wave equations by means of the Newton's second law.The plane analysis is implemented on the wave equations to yield the analytic solutions for phase velocities and attenuation factors of four waves,namely,fast P-wave,slow P-wave,SV-wave and SH-wave,and the anisotropy parameters can be therefore computed.Simulation results show that P-wave velocity have three attenuation peaks throughout the full frequency band,which respectively correspond to the influences of interlayer flow,the squirt flow and the Biot flow.Through the results of seismic velocity dispersion and attenuation at different incident angles,we find that the WIFF mechanism also has a significant impact on the dispersion characteristics of elastic anisotropy parameters within the low-mid frequency band.Moreover,it is shown that several poroelastic parameters,such as layer thickness ratio,crack aspect ratio and crack density have notable influence on seismic dispersion and attenuation.We compare the proposed modeled velocities with that given by the existing theory to confirm its validity.Our formulas and result can provide a better understanding of wave propagation in PLPC medium by considering the unified impacts of micro-,meso-and macro-scale WIFF mechanisms,which potentially lays a theoretical basis of rock physics for seismic interpretation.

文摘Ni/TiAl composite brazed joints could significantly reduce the aircraft’s weight.However,low interfacial adhesion,coarse and brittle-hard intermetallic compounds(IMCs)seriously limited the application of Ni/TiAl composite joints in the next generation of aerospace applications.So enhanced K4169/TiAl composite joints were investigated by vacuum brazed with(Ni_(53.33)Cr_(20)B_(16.67)Si_(10)/Zr_(25)Ti_(18.75)Ta_(12.5)Ni_(25)Cu_(18.75))composite filler metal(CFM)designed based on cluster-plus-glue-atom model.The shear strength of the joint reached 485 MPa,comparable to the 491 MPa of TiAl substrate.The flat and brittle-hard diffusion reaction layer between Zones I and II was eliminated,simultaneously generating CrB4 dispersion strengthening due to the CFM developed with the interfacial solid-liquid space-time hysteresis effect.In Zones II and III,IMCs all transformed into Niss(Cr,Fe)_([0–88]),Niss(Ti,Al)_([004]),and Niss(Zr,Si)_([11–2])of circular and oval shapes through isothermal solidification.Meanwhile,the residual stresses and hardness were distributed in reticulated cladding characteristics.Thereby,lattice distortion led to solid solution strengthening and increased plastic toughness through crack termination and bridging mechanisms,which inhibited dislocations from plugging and crack propagation.Various interfaces in ZoneⅣwere regulated into semi-and coherent interfaces.Ni3(Ti,Al)/(Ni,Ti,Al)and(Ni,Ti,Al)/AlNi_(2)Ti were composed of higher interfacial bonding energy(2.771 J/m^(2),2.547 J/m^(2))and Ni-Ni covalent bonds.Interfacial covalent bonding and large interfacial bonding energy coupling strengthened Zone IV.Consequently,cracks initiated at the(Ni,Ti,Al)[013]/Ti3Al_([010])and expanded rapidly into TiAl substrate.Therefore,applying this method to design CFMs and regulate the phase,grain morphology,and interface’s fine structure could provide new pathways for dissimilar hard-to-join metals.
文摘The present study investigates the influence of thermal dispersion on the natural convective flow of a Casson fluid along an inclined plate embedded in a non-Darcy porous medium.The governing equations,representing momentum and energy conservations,are transformed into non-dimensional form using similarity transformations.To address the complexity of the resulting equations,a bivariate spectral quasilinearisation method is employed.The effects of relevant parameters—including thermal dispersion,Casson parameter,Biot number,Forchheimer number,inclination angle and nonlinear thermal convection parameter—are thoroughly examined.The results show that the drag coefficient and heat transfer rate increase with the nonlinear thermal convection parameter,Casson parameter and Biot number.In contrast,they decrease as the Forchheimer number and inclination angle increase.The velocity near the surface of the inclined plate increases with the Biot number,Casson parameter and nonlinear thermal convection parameter.However,it decreases farther from the plate.Additionally,the temperature of the Casson fluid increases with most parameters,except the Casson and nonlinear thermal convection parameters.

文摘An adaptive dispersion estimation(ADE)is proposed to compensate dispersion and estimate the transfer function of the fiber channel with GerchbergSaxton(G-S)algorithm,using the stochastic gradient descent(SGD)method in the intensity-modulation and direct-detection(IM-DD)system,improving the tolerance of the algorithm to chromatic dispersion(CD).In order to address the divergence arising from the perturbation in the amplitude of the received signal caused by the filtering effect of the non-ideal channels,a channel-compensation equalizer(CCE)derived from the back-to-back(BTB)scenario is employed at the transmitter to make the amplitude of the received signal depicting the CD effect more accurately.The simulation results demonstrate the essentiality of CCE for the convergence and performance improvement of the G-S algorithm.Results show that it supports 112Gb/s four-level pulse amplitude modulation(PAM4)over 100 km standard single-mode fiber(SSMF)transmission under the 7%forward error correction(FEC)threshold of 3.8E-3.Besides,ADE improves the tolerance to wavelength drift from about 4 nm to 42 nm,and there is a better tolerance for fiber distance perturbation,indicating the G-S algorithm and its derived algorithms with the ADE scheme exhibit superior robustness to the perturbation in the system.

文摘Drying operations are of grave importance to realize the reduction and utilization of sewage sludge resources,but the conventional thermal evaporation drying(TED)technology presents challenges due to the need for a large amount of thermal energy to conquer the phase-change latent heat of moisture.Herein,we report a non-phase change technology based on particle high-speed self-rotation in a cyclone for fast,low-temperature drying of viscous sludge with high-moisture contents.Dispersed phase medium(DPM)is introduced into the cyclone self-rotation drying(CSRD)reactor to enhance the dispersion of the viscous sludge.The effects of carrier gas temperature,feeding rate,size,and proportion of DPM particles in the drying process are systematically examined.Under optimal operating conditions,the weighted content of moisture in the viscous sludge could be reduced from 80%to 15.01%in less than 5 s,achieving a high drying efficiency of 95.79%.Theoretical calculations also reveal that 89.26%of the moisture is removed through non-phase change pathway,contributing to a 522-fold increase in the drying rate of CSRD compared to TED technology.This investigation presents a sustainable effective approach for high moisture viscous sludge treatment with low energy consumption and carbon emissions.
