文摘In the scenario of a steam generator tube rupture accident in a lead-cooled fast reactor,secondary circuit subcooled water under high pressure is injected into an ordinary-pressure primary vessel,where a molten lead-based alloy(typically pure lead or lead-bismuth eutectic(LBE))is used as the coolant.To clarify the pressure build-up characteristics under water-jet injection,this study conducted several experiments by injecting pressurized water into a molten LBE pool at Sun Yat-sen University.To obtain a further understanding,several new experimental parameters were adopted,including the melt temperature,water subcooling,injection pressure,injection duration,and nozzle diameter.Through detailed analyses,it was found that the pressure and temperature during the water-melt interaction exhibited a consistent variation trend with our previous water-droplet injection mode LBE experiment.Similarly,the existence of a steam explosion was confirmed,which typically results in a much stronger pressure build-up.For the non-explosion cases,increasing the injection pressure,melt-pool temperature,nozzle diameter,and water subcooling promoted pressure build-up in the melt pool.However,a limited enhancement effect was observed when increasing the injection duration,which may be owing to the continually rising pressure in the interaction vessel or the isolation effect of the generated steam cavity.Regardless of whether a steam explosion occurred,the calculated mechanical and kinetic energy conversion efficiencies of the melt were relatively small(not exceeding 4.1%and 0.7%,respectively).Moreover,the range of the conversion efficiency was similar to that of previous water-droplet experiments,although the upper limit of the jet mode was slightly lower.

文摘The hybrid CO_(2) thermal technique has achieved considerable success globally in extracting residual heavy oil from reserves following a long-term steam stimulation process.Using microscopic visualization experiments and molecular dynamics(MD)simulations,this study investigates the microscopic enhanced oil recovery(EOR)mechanisms underlying residual oil removal using hybrid CO_(2) thermal systems.Based on the experimental models for the occurrence of heavy oil,this study evaluates the performance of hybrid CO_(2) thermal systems under various conditions using MD simulations.The results demonstrate that introducing CO_(2) molecules into heavy oil can effectively penetrate and decompose dense aggregates that are originally formed on hydrophobic surfaces.A stable miscible hybrid CO_(2) thermal system,with a high effective distribution ratio of CO_(2),proficiently reduces the interaction energies between heavy oil and rock surfaces,as well as within heavy oil.A visualization analysis of the interactions reveals that strong van der Waals(vdW)attractions occur between CO_(2) and heavy oil molecules,effectively promoting the decomposition and swelling of heavy oil.This unlocks the residual oil on the hydrophobic surfaces.Considering the impacts of temperature and CO_(2) concentration,an optimal gas-to-steam injection ratio(here,the CO_(2):steam ratio)ranging between 1:6 and 1:9 is recommended.This study examines the microscopic mechanisms underlying the hybrid CO_(2) thermal technique at a molecular scale,providing a significant theoretical guide for its expanded application in EOR.

文摘As the commercialization of the fifth gen-eration communication(5G)is sped up,its system testing scheme is vital for the successful deployment of 5G.Especially,5G relies on the scale-increased multiple-input-multiple output(MIMO)technique to improve its capacity and coverage.Thus,testing new functions of the 5G MIMO system accurately and ef-ficiently,including beamforming(beam-tracking with movement)and multiple-user(MU)multiplexing,is a challenging task.This paper tries to construct a lab-oratorial hardware and conduct equipment-controlled field testing.Firstly,the testing scheme is presented,which is composed of the framework,the channel models and the validation methods.Then,the channel model principles are explained in detail due to its di-rect influence on the testing accuracy.Specifically,we utilize the spatial consistency and the multi-link cor-relation properties to emulate the high-speed dynamic time-varying(HDT)and the multiple-cell(MC)-MU-MIMO channels.Finally,the above testing scheme is verified in a Shanghai 5G field experiment with the practical commercial equipment and the channel em-ulator.The results show that the 5G new functions are tested accurately and efficiently by switching the channel emulation configurations.

文摘Background:QiShenYiQi(QSYQ)is commonly accepted to treat ischemic stroke(IS)in clinical settings,yet the underlying mechanism of action of QSYQ is largely unknown.Methods:By combining systems pharmacology with experimental assessment,we examined the key targets,bioactive components,and mechanisms of QSYQ against IS.Results:Traditional Chinese Medicine Systems Pharmacology Database and Analysis Platform predicted a total number of 254 targets that were potentially related to QSYQ,whereas 699 targets associated with IS were gathered from Therapeutic Target Database,Comparative Toxicogenomics Database,Gene Cards,Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man,and National Center for Biotechnology Information databases,and 83 of these targets overlap with QSYQ-related targets.Importantly,through the analysis of Gene Ontology functional annotation,Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway enrichment,and protein-protein interaction network,we identified 20 related signaling pathways along with 4 hub genes.Subsequently,our molecular docking results revealed that QSYQ might interact with PTGS2,PTGS1,SCN5A,and HSP90AB1.We observed dose-dependent beneficial effects of QSYQ in significantly improving neurological function and alleviating histopathological damage in middle cerebral artery occlusion model,while decreasing infarct volume.Notablely,QSYQ markedly downregulates tumor necrosis factor-α,interleukin-6,and interleukin-1 beta.Overall,this study demonstrates the synergetic effects of QSYQ on regulating multi-targets in IS through inhibiting inflammatory processes and neuronal apoptosis,these findings may expand the understanding of QSYQ and provide guidance for its clinical application in treating IS.Conclusion:Current study reveals the protective roles of QSYQ against IS through modulating PTGS2/PTGS1/SCN5A/HSP90AB1 and TNF signaling pathways.

文摘Rock-ice avalanches in cold high-mountain regions pose severe hazards due to their high mobility,yet the quantitative controls of particle-size ratio and ice content remain insufficiently constrained.This study investigates their coupled effects using inclinedflume experiments and Discrete Element Method(DEM)simulations,covering three gravel sizes(2-5 mm,5-7 mm,7-10 mm)and four ice-content levels(0%,20%,40%,60%).Run-out distance,velocity,energy components,flow regime(Savage number),and segregation indexαwere quantified.Increasing ice content significantly enhances mobility,but with diminishing marginal effectiveness.From 0%to 40%ice content,run-out distance increases by 41%-86%,whereas the additional increase from 40%to 60%contributes only 12%-23%.Particle-size ratio strongly governs segregation intensity.Fine-gravel groups reach segregation indices ofα=0.92-0.98,indicating nearly complete upward migration of ice,whereas medium-gravel and coarse-gravel groups exhibit much weaker segregation,stabilizing atα=0.68-0.74 and 0.60-0.69.Savage number analyses reveal marked flow-regime transitions.At 0%ice content,Savage numbers reach 1.0-1.5,indicating a collisional regime.Increasing ice content suppresses collisionality,with Savage numbers decreasing to 0.03-0.07 at 60%ice content,consistent with dense-regime flow.DEM energy analyses confirm this regime shift:for finegravel mixtures,collision energy decreases by 14%,while sliding-friction energy increases by 33%as ice content increases from 0%to 60%,reflecting enhanced overburden effects imposed by upward-segregated ice layers.Medium and coarse mixtures exhibit weaker or opposite energy-shift patterns,demonstrating strong size dependence.Mechanistically,large particle-size contrasts promote strong segregation and form dense basal rock layers that increase basal friction and reduce mobility.When particle sizes are similar or ice content is high,segregation remains limited,allowing ice to mix into the basal layer,thereby reducing basal friction and enhancing mobility.This research quantitatively demonstrates how composition controls particle spatial distribution,flow regime,and energy dissipation,offering new mechanistic insights into the propagation and deposition behaviors of rock-ice avalanches and improving hazard assessment in vulnerable high-mountain regions.

文摘Pathological scarring,manifested in the form of hypertrophic scars(HTS)and keloid scars(KS),represents a major clinical challenge due to its aesthetic and functional implications for patients.Understanding the molecular mechanisms involved in these types of scars and developing effective treatments requires the use of controlled ex-perimental models,especially animals,to overcome the limitations of clinical studies.The aim of this sistematic review is to critically analyze the animal models used in the last five years(2020-2025)for the study of pathological scars,highlighting their advantages,limitations and applicability in the development of new therapeutic strat-egies.Murine,rabbit and porcine models,as well as alternative models,offer varied perspectives on the formation and treatment of HTS and KS,with an emphasis on histological and molecular correlations with human pathology.By synthesizing recent data,the paper highlights the essential role of preclinical research in optimizing an-tifibrotic treatments and in advancing the translation of data into the clinical sphere.Overall,animal models remain essential for bridging mechanistic insights with clinical translation,supporting the development of more effective and personalized anti-scar therapies.

文摘The Zeeman effect,a fundamental quantum phenomenon,demonstrates the interaction between magnetic fields and atomic systems.While precise spectroscopic measurements of this effect have advanced significantly,there remains a lack of simple,visually accessible demonstration for educational purposes.Here,we present a low-cost experiment that allows for direct visual observation of the Zeeman effect.Our setup involves a flame containing sodium(from table salt)placed in front of a sodium vapor lamp.When a magnetic field is applied to the flame,the shadow cast by the flame noticeably lightens,providing a clear,naked-eye demonstration of the Zeeman effect.Furthermore,we conduct two quantitative experiments using this setup,examining the effects of varying magnetic field strength and sodium concentration.This innovative approach not only enriches the experimental demonstration for teaching atomic physics at undergraduate and high school levels but also provides an open platform for students to explore the Zeeman effect through hands-on experience.

文摘Dissolution trapping is one of the most promising mechanisms for safe geological carbon storage.Density-driven convection substantially accelerates the conversion of free-phase CO_(2)to the dissolved state,enhancing the sequestration safety.Since this process occurs on time scales of hundreds to thousands of years,reproducing it through conventional laboratory physical model tests is challenging.The hypergravity experiment reduces the model size and shortens the experimental time,enabling the modeling of gravity-driven flow processes at the field scale.However,it is uncertain whether the preferential flow effect caused by fractures can be reproduced in a hypergravity experiment.In this study,a three-dimensional discrete fracture-matrix model(3D-DFM)was used to evaluate the feasibility of hypergravity experiment of the transport of dissolved CO_(2)in fractured reservoirs.Numerical hypergravity tests were performed to examine the feasibility of modeling density-driven convection in homogeneous and heterogeneous media at different centrifuge accelerations.The hypergravity experiment can be used to study density-driven convection of dissolved CO_(2)at the field scale in homogeneous system.The numerical results show that the hypergravity experiment enables a faster breakthrough of plume and overestimates CO_(2)migration in the matrix surrounding the fractures.

文摘Recovered samples of Jilin H5 chondrite experimentally shocked to 12-133 GPa were studied to explore the behavior of opaque minerals under shock loading using SEM-EDS,Raman spectroscopy,and TIMA.The following results were obtained.Firstly,at pressures lower than 53GPa,the opaque minerals still keep the unmelted state,while at 78 GPa and higher,FeNi metal and troilite form eutectic intergrowths occurring as disorderly fine veinlets filling the shock-induced fractures in silicate minerals.Secondly,single kamacite grains still maintain their contour at 12 GPa,but a part of brittle troilite grains was fragmented and squeezed into the shock-induced fractures within kamacite grains.At53 and 133 GPa,many more troilite fragments are poured in the kamacite interior to form disordered hybrid aggregates or to form squiggly strips,respectively.Similar phenomena are observed within single troilite grains,but the mineral squeezed into troilite grains is kamacite.Thirdly,chromite is a hard and refractory oxide mineral.When the shock pressure rises step by step from 12 to 133 GPa,the shock effect of chromite is only fragmentation.Its grain size decreases from tens of um at 53 GPa to a few um at 133 GPa.And,fourthly,native copper exhibits distinct redistribution behavior at high temperature.In Jilin samples shock-loaded to 12 GPa,copper initially located at troilite-kamacite interfaces partially transferred into small troilite grains containing fine FeNi particles.At 53 and 133 GPa,native copper preferentially transferred into larger troilite grains containing more particles of eutectic FeNi metal.

文摘Image processing techniques were employed to analyze the ink dispersion process in a tundish water model,providing quantitative parameters to evaluate fluid flow dynamics.Key parameters,including filling time,dead area fraction,area emptying time,peak concentration time,dead concentration fraction,and concentration emptying time,were introduced.Orthogonal tests were conducted to investigate the effects of dam spacing,height,and openings on tundish flow behavior.Results revealed that the dam spacing of 3760 mm yielded the shortest filling and peak concentration time,while the 4760 mm spacing minimized dead area and concentration fractions.Taller dams(620 mm)reduced dead area fractions but extended peak concentration time.Dams with openings demonstrated improved flow dynamics,reducing both dead area and concentration fractions,as well as emptying time.The consistency between dye experiments and residence time distribution experiments highlights the reliability of these parameters for optimizing tundish design and operation.

文摘Heavy-ion collisions(HICs)is a unique experimental tool for investigating the properties of nuclear matter under extreme conditions in the laboratory.At HIRFL-CSR energies,HICs can create nuclear matter with 2-3 times the saturation density(ρ_(0)).The HIRFL-CSR external-target experiment(CEE)is a large-acceptance spectrometer designed to explore frontier topics in high-energy nuclear physics,such as the QCD phase structure and nuclear matter equation of states.In this letter,we introduce simulation and analysis software for the CEE experiment(CeeROOT).Based on the CEE conceptual design and CeeROOT software,the configurations of its subdetectors were optimized by considering foreseeable physical constraints.The final detector layout of the CEE spectrometer and its acceptances were validated through simulations of U+U collisions at 500 MeV/u and pp collisions at 2.8 GeV,which demonstrated that the CEE experiment will serve as a detector with wide acceptance and multi-particle identification capabilities for studying high-energy nuclear physics topics at HIRFL-CSR energies with pp,pA,and A A collisions.

文摘The shear adhesive strength at the clay‒metal interfaces serves as a critical parameter for evaluating the soil adhesion and metal interface mudding phenomena.However,its rapid determination remains challenging because of the demanding requirements for high-precision instrumentation and complex calibration procedures.In this study,an integrated framework was presented that combined physical experiments,theoretical approaches,and machine learning to enable the autonomous determination of the shear adhesive strength of soil under multiple influencing factors.We developed an improved particle swarm optimization-optimized ordinary kriging(IPOK)surrogate testing method to enhance the limited experimental datasets,and a lightweight residual neural network(RLNet)was then used for effective intra-and extra-domain predictions.A comprehensive model discussion,comparison,and interpretability analysis were conducted.The results from 64 physical experiments considering the consistency index,normal stress,clay content,rotation rate,and disc material effectively characterized the shear adhesion behaviour of kaolin.The IPOK surrogate experiments successfully replicated the physical data points while enriching the dataset details.The RLNet model trained with IPOK data achieved superior prediction performance,with a root mean square error of 7.491 and a determination coefficient of 0.927 in 16 orthogonal validation tests,and high similarity was attained between the predicted and measured values.A detailed model discussion analysis confirmed the superiority of the IPOK-RLNet framework.This methodology provides a cost-effective rapid analysis technique for assessing clay‒metal interface shear adhesion,significantly reducing laboratory testing requirements and experimental costs while increasing engineering efficiency.
