Recently, the fundamentals of the conventional circuit theory were extended to include the new generalized elements and fractional-order elements. As is known to all, circuit theory is a limiting special case of electromagnetic field theory and the characterization of classical circuit elements can be given an elegant electromagnetic interpretation. In this paper, considering fractional-order time derivatives, an electromagnetic field interpretation of fractional-order elements: fractional-order inductor, fractional-order capacitor and fractional-order mutual inductor is presented, in terms of a quasi-static expansion of the fractional Maxwell’s equations. It shows that fractional-order elements can also be interpreted as a fractional electromagnetic system. As the element order equals to 1, the interpretation of fractional-order elements matches that of the classical circuit elements: L, C, and mutual inductor, respectively.展开更多

Fractional-order electric elements and circuits are becoming more and more attractive. In this paper, the complexorder electric elements concept is proposed for the first time, and the complex-order elements are modeled and analyzed.Some interesting phenomena are found that the real part of the order affects the phase of output signal, and the imaginary part affects the amplitude for both the complex-order capacitor and complex-order memristor. More interesting is that the complex-order capacitor can do well at the time of fitting electrochemistry impedance spectra. The complex-order memristor is also analyzed. The area inside the hysteresis loops increases with the increasing of the imaginary part of the order and decreases with the increasing of the real part. Some complex case of complex-order memristors hysteresis loops are analyzed at last, whose loop has touching points beyond the origin of the coordinate system.展开更多

With the development of high-coverage sequencing technology, researchers have started to notice that genomic repeat regions, previously neglected in search of disease culprits, are active contributors to multiple neurodegenerative diseases. In this review, we describe the association between repeat element variants and multiple degenerative diseases through genome-wide association studies and targeted sequencing. We discuss the identification of disease-relevant repeat element variants, further powered by the advancement of long-read sequencing technologies and their related tools, and summarize recent findings in the molecular mechanisms of repeat element variants in brain degeneration, such as those causing transcriptional silencing or RNA-mediated gain of toxic function. Furthermore, we describe how in silico predictions using innovative computational models, such as deep learning language models, could enhance and accelerate our understanding of the functional impact of repeat element variants. Finally, we discuss future directions to advance current findings for a better understanding of neurodegenerative diseases and the clinical applications of genomic repeat elements.展开更多

We discuss the identification of disease-relevant repeat element variants, further powered by the advancement of long-read sequencing technologies and their related tools, and summarize recent findings in the molecular mechanisms of repeat element variants in brain degeneration, such as those causing transcriptional silencing or RNA-mediated gain of toxic function. Furthermore, we describe how in silico predictions using innovative computational models, such as deep learning language models, could enhance and accelerate our understanding of the functional impact of repeat element variants. Finally, we discuss future directions to advance current findings for a better understanding of neurodegenerative diseases and the clinical applications of genomic repeat elements.

文摘Producing steel requires large amounts of energy to convert iron ores into steel,which often comes from fossil fuels,leading to carbon emissions and other pollutants.Increasing scrap usage emerges as one of the most effective strategies for addressing these issues.However,typical residual elements(Cu,As,Sn,Sb,Bi,etc.)inherited from scrap could significantly influence the mechanical properties of steel.In this work,we investigate the effects of residual elements on the microstructure evolution and mechanical properties of a quenching and partitioning(Q&P)steel by comparing a commercial QP1180 steel(referred to as QP)to the one containing typical residual elements(Cu+As+Sn+Sb+Bi<0.3wt%)(referred to as QP-R).The results demonstrate that in comparison with the QP steel,the residual elements significantly refine the prior austenite grain(9.7μm vs.14.6μm)due to their strong solute drag effect,leading to a higher volume fraction(13.0%vs.11.8%),a smaller size(473 nm vs.790 nm)and a higher average carbon content(1.26 wt%vs.0.99 wt%)of retained austenite in the QP-R steel.As a result,the QP-R steel exhibits a sustained transformation-induced plasticity(TRIP)effect,leading to an enhanced strain hardening effect and a simultaneous improvement of strength and ductility.Grain boundary segregation of residual elements was not observed at prior austenite grain boundaries in the QP-R steel,primarily due to continuous interface migration during austenitization.This study demonstrates that the residual elements with concentrations comparable to that in scrap result in significant microstructural refinement,causing retained austenite with relatively higher stability and thus offering promising mechanical properties and potential applications.

文摘Investigating the combined effects of mining damage and creep damage on slope stability is crucial,as it can comprehensively reveal the non-linear deformation characteristics of rock under their joint influence.This study develops a fractional-order nonlinear creep constitutive model that incorporates the double damage effect and implements a non-linear creep subroutine for soft rock using the threedimensional finite difference method on the FLAC3D platform.Comparative analysis of the theoretical,numerical,and experimental results reveals that the fractional-order constitutive model,which incorporates the double damage effect,accurately reflects the distinct deformation stages of green mudstone during creep failure and effectively captures the non-linear deformation in the accelerated creep phase.The numerical results show a fitting accuracy exceeding 97%with the creep test curves,significantly outperforming the 61%accuracy of traditional creep models.

文摘In this paper,a fractional-order kinematic model is utilized to capture the size-dependent static bending and free vibration responses of piezoelectric nanobeams.The general nonlocal strains in the Euler-Bernoulli piezoelectric beam are defined by a frame-invariant and dimensionally consistent Riesz-Caputo fractional-order derivatives.The strain energy,the work done by external loads,and the kinetic energy based on the fractional-order kinematic model are derived and expressed in explicit forms.The boundary conditions for the nonlocal Euler-Bernoulli beam are derived through variational principles.Furthermore,a finite element model for the fractional-order system is developed in order to obtain the numerical solutions to the integro-differential equations.The effects of the fractional order and the vibration order on the static bending and vibration responses of the Euler-Bernoulli piezoelectric beams are investigated numerically.The results from the present model are validated against the existing results in the literature,and it is demonstrated that they are theoretically consistent.Although this fractional finite element method(FEM)is presented in the context of a one-dimensional(1D)beam,it can be extended to higher dimensional fractional-order boundary value problems.

文摘Liquid crystal Pacharatnam-Berry phase optical elements(PBOEs)have found promising applications in augmented reality and virtual reality because of their slim formfactor,lightweight,and high optical efficiency.However,chromatic aberration remains a serious longstanding problem for diffractive optics,hindering their broader adoption.To overcome the chromatic aberrations for red,green and blue(RGB)light sources,in this paper,we propose a counterintuitive multi-twist structure to achieve narrowband PBOEs without crosstalk,which plays a vital role to eliminate the chromatic aberration.The performance of our designed and fabricated narrowband Pacharatnam-Berry lenses(PBLs)aligns well with our simulation results.Furthermore,in a feasibility demonstration experiment using a laser projector,our proposed PBL system indeed exhibits a diminished chromatic aberration as compared to a broadband PBL.Additionally,polarization raytracing is implemented to demonstrate the versatility of the multi-twist structure for designing any RGB wavelengths with high contrast ratios.This analysis explores the feasibility of using RGB laser lines and quantum dot light-emitting diodes.Overall,our approach enables high optical efficiency,low fabrication complexity,and high degree of design freedom to accommodate any liquid crystal material and RGB light sources,holding immense potential for widespread applications of achromatic PBOEs.

文摘The effect of adding Cr and Mg on the microstructure and properties of Cu−Ti alloys was examined.Cu−Ti−Cr−Mg alloys were fabricated using vacuum induction melting.The microstructure and phase composition of Cu−Ti−Cr−Mg alloys in different aging states were characterized.Additionally,the hardness and electrical conductivity of the materials were investigated.Results show that the precipitation pattern in Cu−Ti−Cr−Mg alloys resembled that of binary Cu−Ti alloys,with Cr and Ti forming the intermetallic compound of Cr_(2)Ti during casting.The introduction of Cr and Mg increased the hardness of the alloy.Increasing the Mg content in the Cu−Ti−Cr−Mg alloy led to grain refinement and fast nucleation of continuous precipitates during the early aging stage.Moreover,the addition of Mg impeded discontinuous precipitate growth by segregating along the precipitate surfaces.Consequently,the Cu−4Ti−0.5Cr−1Mg alloy exhibited limited discontinuous precipitates at the grain boundaries and a gradual decline in hardness during the over-aging period.

文摘The cobalt-free Mn-based Li-rich layered oxide material has the advantages of low cost,high energy density,and good performance at low temperatures,and is the promising choice for energy storage batteries.However,the long-cycling stability of batteries needs to be improved.Herein,the Mn-based Li-rich cathode materials with small amounts of Li2 MnO3 crystal domains and gradient doping of Al and Ti elements from the surface to the bulk have been developed to improve the structure and interface stability.Then the batteries with a high energy density of 600 Wh kg^(-1),excellent capacity retention of 99.7%with low voltage decay of 0.03 mV cycle^(-1) after 800 cycles,and good rates performances can be achieved.Therefore,the structure and cycling stability of low voltage Mn-based Li-rich cathode materials can be significantly improved by the bulk structure design and interface regulation,and this work has paved the way for developing low-cost and high-energy Mn-based energy storage batteries with long lifetime.

文摘Cu–Ni and Cu–Co–Ni superhydrophobic films were constructed on the surface of B10 copper–nickel alloy welded joints using a two-step process of electrodeposition and stearic acid modification.The chemical composition of the film surface was determined using surface characterization techniques.The corrosion resistance of the films was characterized using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy,potentiodynamic polarization,and scanning Kelvin probe microscopy at multiple scales.The thermal stability,mechanical stability,and self-cleaning properties of the films were also characterized.It was determined that the Cu–Co–Ni superhydrophobic film exhibited the best performance,with a static water contact angle of 159.3°,a roll-off angle of 2.3°,a charge transfer resistance 3300 times higher than the substrate,a self-corrosion current density nearly three orders of magnitude lower,and a surface Kelvin potential increase of 420 mV.The film demonstrated good thermal stability,excellent mechanical stability,and outstanding self-cleaning properties.Combining with previous studies,it was found that Co elements in the film contribute to the formation of a uniform and dense film,Ni elements enhance the adhesion and corrosion resistance between the films,and the combination of Co and Ni elements promotes uniform surface potential and further improves the corrosion resistance and interfilm adhesion of the films.
