Investigating the evolution of the mechanical properties of the reservoir and caprock under in-situ high-temperature and confine-ment conditions is of considerable importance. Compared to conventional mechanical experiments on rock samples after high-temperat-ure treatment, in-situ high-temperature experiments can more accurately characterize the behavior of rocks in practical engineering,thereby providing a more realistic reflection of their mechanical properties. In this study, an in-situ high-temperature triaxial compressiontesting machine is developed to conduct in-situ compression tests on sandstone at different temperatures(25, 200, 400, 500, and 650℃)and confining pressures(0, 10, and 20 MPa). Based on the experimental results, the temperature-dependent changes in compressivestrength, peak strain, elastic modulus, Poisson's ratio, cohesion, and internal friction angle are thoroughly analyzed and discussed. Resultsindicate that the mass of sandstone gradually decreases as the temperature increases. The thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity ofsandstone exhibit a linear relationship with temperature. Peak stress decreases as the temperature rises, while it increases with higher con-fining pressures. Notably, the influence of confining pressure on peak stress diminishes at higher temperatures. Additionally, as the tem-perature rises, the Poisson's ratio of sandstone decreases. The internal friction angle also decreases with increasing temperature, with 400℃ acting as the threshold temperature. Interestingly, under uniaxial conditions, the damage stress of sandstone is less affected by tem-perature. However, when the confining pressure is 10 or 20 MPa, the damage stress decreases as the temperature increases. This study en-hances our understanding of the influence of in-situ high-temperature and confinement conditions on the mechanical properties of sand-stone strata. The study also provides valuable references and experimental data that support the development of low-to medium-maturityoil shale resources.展开更多

For this, tensile tests of rocks under high-temperature treatment were conducted with a ϕ75 mm split Hopkinson tension bar (SHTB) to investigate the mesoscopic fracture and damage properties of rock. An improved scanning electron microscopy (SEM) experimental method was used to analyze the tensile fracture surfaces of rock samples. Qualitative and quantitative analyses were performed to assess evolution of mesoscopic damage of heat-damaged rock under tensile loading. A constitutive model describing the mesoscopic fractal damage under thermo-mechanical coupling was established. The results showed that the high temperatures significantly reduced the tensile strength and fracture surface roughness of the red sandstone. The three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction of the fracture surface of the samples that experienced tensile failure at 900 °C showed a flat surface. The standard deviation of elevation and slope angle of specimen fracture surface first increased and then decreased with increasing temperature. The threshold for brittle fracture of the heat-damaged red sandstone specimens was 600 °C. Beyond this threshold temperature, local ductile fracture occurred, resulting in plastic deformation of the fracture surface during tensile fracturing. With increase of temperature, the internal meso-structure of samples was strengthened slightly at first and then deteriorated gradually, which was consistent with the change of macroscopic mechanical properties of red sandstone. The mesoscopic characteristics, such as the number, mean side length, maximum area, porosity, and fractal dimension of crack, exhibited an initial decline, followed by a gradual increase. The development of microcracks in samples had significant influence on mesoscopic fractal dimension. The mesoscopic fractal characteristics were used to establish a mesoscopic fractal damage constitutive model for red sandstone, and the agreement between the theoretical and experimental results validated the proposed model.展开更多

Accumulation of DNA damage with failure of repair processes leads to fatal diseases such as cancer. Recent studies have suggested that intra- and extra-nuclear environments play essential roles in DNA damage. However, numerous questions regarding the role of the nuclear mechanical environment in DNA damage remain unanswered. In this study, we investigated the effects of cell confluency (cell crowding) on the morphology of cell nuclei, and cytoskeletal structures, and DNA damage in NIH3T3 skin fibroblasts and HeLa cervical cancer cells. Although nuclear downsizing was observed in both NIH3T3 and HeLa cells with cell crowding, intracellular mechanical changes in the two cell types displayed opposite tendencies. Cell crowding in NIH3T3 cells induced reinforcement of actin filament structures, cell stiffening, and nuclear downsizing, resulting in a significant decrease in endogenous DNA damage, whereas cell crowding in HeLa cells caused partial depolymerization of actin filaments and cell softening, inducing endogenous DNA damage. Ultraviolet (UV) radiation significantly increased DNA damage in NIH3T3;however, this response did not change with cell crowding. In contrast, UV radiation did not cause DNA damage in HeLa cells under either sparse or confluent conditions. These results suggested that cell crowding significantly influenced endogenous DNA damage in cells and was quite different in NIH3T3 and HeLa cells. However, cell crowding did not affect the UV-induced DNA damage in either cell type.展开更多

The thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity ofsandstone exhibit a linear relationship with temperature. Peak stress decreases as the temperature rises, while it increases with higher con-fining pressures. Notably, the influence of confining pressure on peak stress diminishes at higher temperatures. Additionally, as the tem-perature rises, the Poisson's ratio of sandstone decreases. The internal friction angle also decreases with increasing temperature, with 400℃ acting as the threshold temperature. Interestingly, under uniaxial conditions, the damage stress of sandstone is less affected by tem-perature. However, when the confining pressure is 10 or 20 MPa, the damage stress decreases as the temperature increases. This study en-hances our understanding of the influence of in-situ high-temperature and confinement conditions on the mechanical properties of sand-stone strata. The study also provides valuable references and experimental data that support the development of low-to medium-maturityoil shale resources.

文摘The research on high-performance electromagnetic wave absorption materials with high-temperature and oxidative stability in extreme environments is gaining popularity.Herein,the lightweight silicon carbide nanowires(SiC_(nws))/SiC composites are fabricated with in-situ SiC interface on one-dimensional oriented SiC_(nws)skeleton,which collaborative configuration by 3D printing and freeze casting assembly.The con-structed porous structure optimizes the impedance matching degree and scattering intensity,the maximum effective absorption bandwidth(EAB_(max))of 5.9 GHz and the minimum reflection loss(RL_(min))of−41.4 dB can be realized.Considering the inherent oxidation resistance of SiC,the composites present well-maintained absorption performance at 600℃.Even at 1100℃,the EAB_(max)of 4.9 GHz and RLmin of−30.4 dB also demonstrate the high-temperature absorption stability of the composites,indicating exceptional wave absorption properties and thermal stability.The slight attenuation can be attributed to the decrease in impedance matching capability accompanying the elevated dielectric constant.This work clarifies the impact of structure and component synergy on wave absorption behavior,and offers a novel approach to producing high-performance and high-temperature resistance ceramic-based electromagnetic wave absorption materials suitable for extreme environments.

文摘The loaded rock experiences multiple stages of deformation.It starts with the formation of microcracks at low stresses(crack initiation,CI)and then transitions into unstable crack propagation(crack damage,CD)near the ultimate strength.In this study,both the acoustic emission method(AEM)and the ultrasonic testing method(UTM)were used to examine the characteristics of AE parameters(b-value,peak frequency,frequency-band energy ratio,and fractal dimension)and ultrasonic(ULT)properties(velocity,amplitude,energy attenuation,and scattering attenuation)of bedded shale at CI,CD,and ultimate strength.The comparison involved analyzing the strain-based method(SBM),AEM,and UTM to determine the thresholds for damage stress.A fuzzy comprehensive evaluation model(FCEM)was created to describe the damage thresholds and hazard assessment.The results indicate that the optimal AE and ULT parameters for identifying CI and CD stress are ringing count,ultrasonic amplitude,energy attenuation,and scattering attenuation of the S-wave.Besides,damage thresholds were detected earlier by AE monitoring,ranging from 3 MPa to 10 MPa.CI and CD identified by UTM occurred later than SBM and AEM,and were in the range of 12 MPa.The b-value,peak frequency,energy ratio in the low-frequency band(0e62.5 kHz),correlation dimension,and sandbox dimension showed low values at the peak stress,while the energy ratio in a moderate-frequency band(187.5e281.25 kHz)and amplitude showed high values.The successful application of FCEM to laboratory testing of shales has demonstrated its ability to quantitatively identify AE/ULT precursors of seismic hazards associated with rock failure.

文摘Coating microdefects and localized corrosion in coating/metal system are inevitable,accelerating the degradation of metal infrastructure.Early evaluating coating microdefects and detecting corrosion sites are urgent yet remain challenge to achieve.Herein,we propose a robust,universal and efficient fluorescence-based strategy for hierarchical warning of coating damage and metal corrosion by introducing the concepts of damage-induced fluorescence enhancement effect(DIE)and ionic-recognition induced quenching effect(RIQ).The coatings with dualresponsiveness for coating defect and steel corrosion are constructed by incorporating synthesized nanoprobes composed of metal organic frameworks(Ni–Zn-MOFs)loaded with Rhodamine B(RhB@MOFs).The initial damage to the coating causes an immediate intensification of fluorescence,while the specific ionic-recognition characteristic of RhB with Fe3t results in an evident fluorescence quenching,enabling the detection of coating damage and corrosion.Importantly,this nanoprobes are insensitive to the coating matrix and exhibit stable corrosion warning capability across various coating systems.Meanwhile,electrochemical investigations indicate that the impedance values of RM/EP maintain above 10^(8)Ωcm^(2)even after 60 days of immersion.Therefore,the incorporation of fluorescent nanoprobes greatly inhibits the intrusion of electrolytes into polymer and improves the corrosion protection performance of the coating.This powerful strategy towards dual-level damage warning provides insights for the development of long-term smart protective materials.

文摘Powder metallurgy was used to fabricate TiC-NiCr cermets and the oxidation behavior at 900℃ was investigated.Results reveal that TiC-NiCr cermets have uniform structures with excellent mechanical properties,whose hardness is 65 HRC and flexural strength is 1450 MPa.The high-temperature oxidation mechanism of TiC-based cermets was investigated through an X-ray diffractometer and scanning electron microscope.The added elements Ni and Cr along with their solid solutions not only bond with the hard phase TiC to ensure the physical performance of the cermet,but also impede the internal diffusion during oxidation by forming a dense composite oxide layer,thereby enhancing the oxidation resistance.The TiC-NiCr cermet exhibits a dense protective oxide layer at 900℃ and can endure continuous oxidation for approximately 1000 h.A methodology for fabricating TiC-NiCr metal matrix composites is proposed,and their oxidation resistance is evaluated,providing a theoretical and practical basis for simultaneously enhancing the mechanical properties and oxidation resistance and reducing production costs.

文摘The paper presents experimental investigation results of crack pattern change in cement pastes caused by external sulfate attack(ESA).To visualize the formation and development of cracks in cement pastes under ESA,an X-ray computed tomography(X-ray CT)was used,i e,the tomography system of Zeiss Xradia 510 versa.The results indicate that X-CT can monitor the development process and distribution characteristics of the internal cracks of cement pastes under ESA with attack time.In addition,the C3A content in the cement significantly affects the damage mode of cement paste specimens during sulfate erosion.The damage of ordinary Portland cement(OPC)pastes subjected to sulfate attack with high C3A content are severe,while the damage of sulfate resistant Portland cement(SRPC)pastes is much smaller than that of OPC pastes.Furthermore,a quadratic function describes the correlation between the crack volume fraction and development depth for two cement pastes immermed in sulfate solution.

文摘Arsenic-related oxidative stress and resultant diseases have attracted global concern,while longitudinal studies are scarce.To assess the relationship between arsenic exposure and systemic oxidative damage,we performed two repeatedmeasures among 5236 observations(4067 participants)in theWuhan-Zhuhai cohort at the baseline and follow-up after 3 years.Urinary total arsenic,biomarkers of DNA oxidative damage(8-hydroxy-2-deoxyguanosine(8-OHdG)),lipid peroxidation(8-isoprostaglandin F2alpha(8-isoPGF2α)),and protein oxidative damage(protein carbonyls(PCO))were detected for all observations.Here we used linearmixed models to estimate the cross-sectional and longitudinal associations between arsenic exposure and oxidative damage.Exposure-response curves were constructed by utilizing the generalized additive mixed models with thin plate regressions.After adjusting for potential confounders,arsenic level was significantly and positively related to the levels of global oxidative damage and their annual increased rates in dose-response manners.In cross-sectional analyses,each 1%increase in arsenic levelwas associated with a 0.406%(95%confidence interval(CI):0.379%to 0.433%),0.360%(0.301%to 0.420%),and 0.079%(0.055%to 0.103%)increase in 8-isoPGF2α,8-OHdG,and PCO,respectively.More importantly,arsenic was further found to be associated with increased annual change rates of 8-isoPGF2α(β:0.147;95%CI:0.130 to 0.164),8-OHdG(0.155;0.118 to 0.192),and PCO(0.050;0.035 to 0.064)in the longitudinal analyses.Our study suggested that arsenic exposurewas not only positively related with global oxidative damage to lipid,DNA,and protein in cross-sectional analyses,but also associated with annual increased rates of these biomarkers in dose-dependent manners.

文摘(TiZrHf)_(50)Ni_(30)Cu_(20-x)Co_(x)(x=2,4,6,at%)high-entropy high-temperature shape memory alloys were fabricated by watercooled copper crucible in a magnetic levitation vacuum melting furnace,and the effects of Co content on microstructure and mechanical properties were investigated.The results indicate that the grain size of the alloy decreases with increasing the Co content.In the as-cast state,the alloy consists primarily of the B19′phase,with a trace of B2 phase.The fracture morphology is predominantly composed of the B19′phase,whereas the B2 phase is nearly absent.Increasing the Co content or reducing the sample dimensions(d)markedly enhance the compressive strength and ductility of the alloy.When d=2 mm,the(TiZrHf)_(50)Ni_(30)Cu_(14)Co_(6) alloy demonstrates the optimal mechanical properties,achieving a compressive strength of 2142.39±1.8 MPa and a plasticity of 17.31±0.3%.The compressive cyclic test shows that with increasing the compressive strain,the residual strain of the(TiZrHf)_(50)Ni_(30)Cu_(14)Co_(6) alloy increases while the recovery ability declines.The superelastic recovery capability of the alloy is continuously enhanced.The superelastic recovery rate increases from 1.36%to 2.12%,the residual strain rate rises from 1.79%to 5.52%,the elastic recovery rate ascends from 3.86%to 7.36%,while the total recovery rate declines from 74.48%to 63.20%.

文摘Co-based alloy coating was prepared on Zr alloy using laser melting and cladding technique to study the difference in the high-temperature oxidation behavior between pure metal Co coatings and Co-T800 alloy coatings,as well as the wear resistance of the coatings.Besides,the effect of changing the laser melting process on the coatings was also investigated.The oxidation mass gain at 800–1200℃and the high-temperature oxidation behavior during high-temperature treatment for 1 h of two coated Zr alloy samples were studied.Results show that the Co coating and the Co-T800 coating have better resistance against high-temperature oxidation.After oxidizing at 1000℃for 1 h,the thickness of the oxide layer of the uncoated sample was 241.0μm,whereas that of the sample with Co-based coating is only 11.8–35.5μm.The friction wear test shows that the depth of the abrasion mark of the coated sample is only 1/2 of that of the substrate,indicating that the hardness and wear resistance of the Zr substrate are greatly improved.The disadvantage of Co-based coatings is the inferior corrosion resistance in 3.5wt%NaCl solution.

文摘Understanding the mesoscopic tensile fracture damage of rock is the basis of evaluating the deterioration process of mechanical properties of heat-damaged rock. For this, tensile tests of rocks under high-temperature treatment were conducted with a ϕ75 mm split Hopkinson tension bar (SHTB) to investigate the mesoscopic fracture and damage properties of rock. An improved scanning electron microscopy (SEM) experimental method was used to analyze the tensile fracture surfaces of rock samples. Qualitative and quantitative analyses were performed to assess evolution of mesoscopic damage of heat-damaged rock under tensile loading. A constitutive model describing the mesoscopic fractal damage under thermo-mechanical coupling was established. The results showed that the high temperatures significantly reduced the tensile strength and fracture surface roughness of the red sandstone. The three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction of the fracture surface of the samples that experienced tensile failure at 900 °C showed a flat surface. The standard deviation of elevation and slope angle of specimen fracture surface first increased and then decreased with increasing temperature. The threshold for brittle fracture of the heat-damaged red sandstone specimens was 600 °C. Beyond this threshold temperature, local ductile fracture occurred, resulting in plastic deformation of the fracture surface during tensile fracturing. With increase of temperature, the internal meso-structure of samples was strengthened slightly at first and then deteriorated gradually, which was consistent with the change of macroscopic mechanical properties of red sandstone. The mesoscopic characteristics, such as the number, mean side length, maximum area, porosity, and fractal dimension of crack, exhibited an initial decline, followed by a gradual increase. The development of microcracks in samples had significant influence on mesoscopic fractal dimension. The mesoscopic fractal characteristics were used to establish a mesoscopic fractal damage constitutive model for red sandstone, and the agreement between the theoretical and experimental results validated the proposed model.

文摘Overview of the DNA damage response(DDR)in tumor cells.DDR is a highly coordinated signaling network that repairs DNA damage caused by intrinsic cellular processes and extrinsic insults,thereby preventing genome instability.Depending on the type of damage,distinct DNA damage repair and DNA damage tolerance(DDT)pathways are involved and coordinately regulated.
文摘Nuclear DNA, which is essential for the transmission of genetic information, is constantly damaged by external stresses and is subsequently repaired by the removal of the damaged region, followed by resynthesis of the excised region. Accumulation of DNA damage with failure of repair processes leads to fatal diseases such as cancer. Recent studies have suggested that intra- and extra-nuclear environments play essential roles in DNA damage. However, numerous questions regarding the role of the nuclear mechanical environment in DNA damage remain unanswered. In this study, we investigated the effects of cell confluency (cell crowding) on the morphology of cell nuclei, and cytoskeletal structures, and DNA damage in NIH3T3 skin fibroblasts and HeLa cervical cancer cells. Although nuclear downsizing was observed in both NIH3T3 and HeLa cells with cell crowding, intracellular mechanical changes in the two cell types displayed opposite tendencies. Cell crowding in NIH3T3 cells induced reinforcement of actin filament structures, cell stiffening, and nuclear downsizing, resulting in a significant decrease in endogenous DNA damage, whereas cell crowding in HeLa cells caused partial depolymerization of actin filaments and cell softening, inducing endogenous DNA damage. Ultraviolet (UV) radiation significantly increased DNA damage in NIH3T3;however, this response did not change with cell crowding. In contrast, UV radiation did not cause DNA damage in HeLa cells under either sparse or confluent conditions. These results suggested that cell crowding significantly influenced endogenous DNA damage in cells and was quite different in NIH3T3 and HeLa cells. However, cell crowding did not affect the UV-induced DNA damage in either cell type.

文摘The tensile strength of rocks under real-time high-temperatures is essential for enhanced geothermal system development.However,the complex occurrence and deep burial of hot dry rocks limit the quantity and quality of standard samples for mechanical testing.This paper compared the tensile strengths obtained from Brazilian splitting tests on standard samples(with a diameter of 50 mm and a thickness of 25 mm)and micro-tensile samples(with a diameter of 50 mm and a thickness of 25 mm)of two types of granites.A power-law size effect model was established between the two sets of data,validating the reliability of the testing method.Then,miniature Brazilian splitting under real-time high-temperature,combined with X-ray diffraction(XRD)revealed temperature-dependent strength variations and microstructural damage mechanisms.The results show that:(1)The comparison error between the tensile strength obtained by the fitting model and that of the measured standard samples was less than 6%.(2)In real-time high-temperature conditions,tensile strength of granite exhibited non-monotonic behavior,increasing below 300°C before decreasing,with sharp declines at 400–500°C and 600–700°C.(3)Thermal damage stems from the differences in the high-temperature behavior of minerals,including dehydration,phase transformation,and differential expansion.

文摘Polymer gels are widely used in water control and enhanced oil recovery in oil fields.However,the damage mechanism of polymer gels to layers with remaining oil and not requiring plugging and corresponding protective measures are unclear.In this paper,we investigated polymer gels'damage and protection performance through static gel-breaking experiments and dynamic plugging and oil recovery evaluations on rock cores.Moreover,nuclear magnetic resonance(NMR)technology was combined to analyze the damage performance of polymer gels on cores from the pore scale.In addition,a protective technique based on gel breakers for layers with remaining oil and not requiring plugging was proposed.Results showed that when polymer gels were injected into heterogeneous cores,they plugged high-permeability layers while also penetrating low-permeability layers.When the damage to the low-permeability layers was not alleviated,the conformance and oil displacement efficiency were significantly reduced.When the concentration of ammonium persulfate was 2%–5%,the gel-breaking time was shortest and the residue was very minimal.Therefore,ammonium persulfate could be used as a gel breaker and reservoir protective material.Furthermore,after injecting ammonium persulfate into heterogeneous reservoir cores,the gel damage on the face of low-permeability layers was relieved.Consequently,the improvement in sweep efficiency was achieved,showing the re-activation of the remaining oil in medium-low permeability layers.Therefore,the low-permeability layer protection process and core experiment study based on gel-breaking agents proposed in this study were suggested to provide a new technique for the field application of conformance modification agents,aiming to achieve higher recovery degrees.
