The analysis focuses on exploring the way in which the hyphenated self is constructed under the influences of dialogical negotiation of desh and pardesh in the context of racism, global-local (glocal) specificity, becoming authenic under the presure of home memory, diaspora ethnicity and mimicry. Is reterritorialization and acculturation successful for the hybrid self? The answers is to be found by the characters of the novels and shown in instances of self expression and integration. Arun, the Indian guy, from Anita Desai’s novel left India for studying in America. During the summer, he is accommodated to an American family. The clash between the two cultures, traditions, and customs is felt as a huge breakage, which leads to desintegration and alienation. Biju and Harish-Harry from Kiran Desai’s novel go to America for a better living, and they succeeed in finding a job at a bakery. The impact of racism is higher in the lower strata of the society, thus their chances to integration are lost;Biju decides to return home, while Harish-Harry ends in a hyphenated self and a dissatisfied living. In The Namesake, Ashoke and Ashima, the Indian emigrants husband and wife, experience a different reshaping of identity. Ashoke works as a university assistant, while Ashima is a housewife. For him, America is a space for affirmation and self-verification, while for his wife, the space becomes a ghetto where she feels lonely and marginalised. Therefore, in the formation of the self there are many coordinates which should be taken into consideration and above this, their impact over the immigrant is different from case to case depending on many factors.展开更多

文摘Due to the high efficiency,no pollution,fuel flexibility and high temperature,solid oxide fuel cell(SOFC)is expected to be applied in aeronautical hybrid power system.In this paper,a 3D mesoscopic mod⁃el was established for SOFC heterogeneous anode.The microstructure of Ni and gadolinium-doped ceria(GDC)anode was generated via Quartet Structure Generation Set(QSGS)method.The mesoscopic model of mass trans⁃fer,charge transfer and reacting flow was built based on lattice Boltzmann method(LBM).The simulation results agreed with the experimental data from reference under 650℃and 0.1 MPa.Meanwhile,the influence of leakage current on open circuit voltage cannot be ignored,which indicates the necessity of adding electron barrier layer.Higher inlet pressure was simulated in order to predict the performance under aeronautical conditions,which shows significant benefit for the performance.The reaction current density increases by 59%,107%and 147%for inlet pressure of 0.2 MPa,0.3 MPa and 0.4 MPa under polarization of 0.161 V.The reaction current shows a significant nonlinear distribution along the thickness direction,and the current density increases faster near the electrolyte.Under the same total polarization,the activation polarization decreases with the increase of inlet pres⁃sure,while the ohmic polarization is opposite.
文摘Chitosan(CTS)was grafted onto the surface of amino‑functionalized silver chloride silicon dioxide(AgCl@SiO_(2)‑NH_(2))cores to obtain AgCl@SiO_(2)/CTS hybrid nanoparticles.The as‑obtained AgCl@SiO_(2)/CTS nanoparticles were chlorinated by NaClO solution to get AgCl@SiO_(2)/CTS‑based chloramine nano‑hybrid materials,denoted as AgCl@SiO_(2)/CTS‑Cl.A transmission electron microscope was used to observe the morphology of the as‑prepared samples AgCl@SiO_(2)/CTS and AgCl@SiO_(2)/CTS‑Cl.At the same time,an X‑ray diffractometer and an infrared spectroscope were utilized to characterize their crystal and chemical structures.Besides,ζpotentials were measured to elucidate the surface modification of AgCl nanoparticles by—NH_(2),the antibacterial mechanism of AgCl@SiO_(2)/CTS‑Cl was investigated by scanning electron microscopy,and Escherichia coli(E.coli)and Staphylococcus aureus(S.aureus)were used as the to‑be‑tested strains to evaluate the antimicrobial activity of samples AgCl@SiO_(2)/CTS and AgCl@SiO_(2)/CTS‑Cl.Findings demonstrate that sample AgCl@SiO_(2)/CTS exhibits a chain‑like structure ascribed to the interaction between—NH_(2),and each AgCl@SiO_(2)/CTS hybrid nanoparticle contains several AgCl cores.In the meantime,sample AgCl@SiO_(2)/CTS‑Cl exhibits excellent antibacterial activity against E.coli and S.aureus,which is attributed to the synergistic antibacterial effect of Ag^(+)and Cl^(-).Sample AgCl@SiO_(2)/CTS‑Cl with a dosage of 640.00μg·mL^(-1) could completely kill the two kinds of tested bacteria in 12 h of incubation;it retains a high antibacterial efficiency even after 10 cycles of antibacterial tests.
文摘High-performance deep-blue emitters that meet the BT.2020 standard proposed by the International Telecommunication Union(ITU)for organic light-emitting diodes(OLEDs)remain highly limited.In this work,four deep-blue emitters,PP1M,PP2M,PP3M,and PP4M,are designed and synthesized by connecting methylsubstituted biphenyl groups with classical hot exciton building block of phenanthreneimidazole.The introduction of methyl groups contributes to increase the molecular torsion angle and widen the energy gaps for the four compounds.Through appropriate modulation of substitution site,PP3M achieves the highest photoluminescence quantum yield of 85.3%in neat film.As a result,the PP3M-based device exhibits deep-blue light with external quantum efficiency of 7.2%and suppressed efficiency roll-off.The device also shows a small full width at half maximum of 53 nm and the CIE coordinates locate at(0.16,0.04),meeting well with the BT.2020 standard.The high exciton utilization efficiency is primarily ascribed to the hot exciton pathway.This study provides a reliable insight for the design of efficient deep-blue OLEDs with high color purity.

文摘The high-quality assembly of Large Aircraft Components(LACs)is essential in modern aviation manufacturing.Numerical control locators are employed for the posture adjustment of LAC,yet the system's multi-input multi-output,nonlinearity,and strong coupling presents significant challenges.The substantial internal force generated during the adjustment process can potentially damage the LAC and degrade the assembly quality.Hence,a workspace-based hybrid force position control scheme was developed to achieve high quality assembly with high-precision and lower internal force.Firstly,an offline workspace analysis with inherent geometric characteristics to form time-varying posture error constraint.Then,the posture error is integrated into the online position axis control to ensure tracking the ideal posture,while the force control axis compensates for posture deviation by minimizing internal force,thereby achieving high precision and low internal force.Finally,the effectiveness was demonstrated through experiments.The root mean square errors of orientation and position are 104 rad and 0.1 mm,respectively.A reduction in internal force can range from 10.96%to 57.4%compared to the traditional method.Key points'max position error is decreased from 0.32 mm to 0.18 mm,satisfying the 0.5 mm tolerance.Therefore,the proposed method will help promote the development of high-performance manufacturing.

文摘To address the issue of transient low-voltage instability in AC-DC hybrid power systems following large disturbances,conventional voltage assessment and control strategies typically adopt a sequential“assess-then-act”paradigm,which struggles to simultaneously meet the requirements for both high accuracy and rapid response.This paper proposes a transient voltage assessment and control method based on a hybrid neural network incorporated with an improved snow ablation optimization(ISAO)algorithm.The core innovation of the proposed method lies in constructing an intelligent“physics-informed and neural network-integrated”framework,which achieves the integration of stability assessment and control strategy generation.Firstly,to construct a highly correlated input set,response characteristics reflecting the system’s voltage stable/unstable states are screened.Simultaneously,the transient voltage severity index(TVSI)is introduced as a comprehensive metric to quantify the system’s post-disturbance transient voltage performance.Furthermore,the load bus voltage sensitivity index(LVSI)is defined as the ratio of the voltage change magnitude at a load node(or bus)to the change in the system-level TVSI,thereby pinpointing the response characteristics of critical load nodes.Secondly,both the transient voltage stability assessment result and its corresponding under-voltage load shedding(UVLS)control amount are jointly utilized as the outputs of the response-driven model.Subsequently,the snow ablation optimization(SAO)algorithm is enhanced using a good point set strategy and a Gaussian mutation strategy.This improved algorithm is then employed to optimize the key hyperparameters of the hybrid neural network.Finally,the superiority of the proposed method is validated on a modified CEPRI-36 system and an actual power grid case.Comparisons with various artificial intelligence methods demonstrate its significant advantages in model speed and accuracy.Additionally,when compared to traditional emergency control schemes and UVLS strategies,the proposed method exhibits exceptional rapidness and real-time capability in control decision-making.

文摘We report first-principles predictions of a cage-like polymeric nitrogen phase(cage-N)composed of interlocked N10 clusters stabilized by mixed sp^(2)/sp^(3) hybridization.Under high pressure,cage-N exhibits exceptional mechanical performance,including an ideal compressive strength of 343 GPa at a pressure of 300 GPa,~33% higher than that of diamond.This ultrahigh strength arises from the synergistic interplay between its three-dimensional covalent framework and hybridized bonding topology,which enables isotropic stress accommodation and dynamic electronic rearrangement.These results establish cage-N as a promising non-carbon ultrahard material and provide a bonding-driven route toward designing superhard frameworks under extreme conditions.

文摘A hybrid model combining Fully Non-Linear Potential Flow Theory(FNPT)based on the Finite Element Method(FEM)and the Unified Navier-Stokes equation,using the 3D Improved Meshless Local Petrov Galerkin method with Rankine Source(IMLPG_R),is developed to study wave interactions with a porous layer.In previous studies,the above formulations are applied to wave interaction with fixed cylindrical structures.The present study extends this framework by integrating a unified governing equation within the hybrid modeling approach to capture the dynamics of wave interaction with porous media.The porous layers are employed to replicate the wave-dissipating behavior of the structure.A weak coupling strategy is implemented within a designated buffer zone,wherein field variables from the 2D Fully Nonlinear Potential Theory(FNPT)simulations are transferred to the 3D Improved Moving Least Squares-based Petrov-Galerkin(IMLPG_R)model at each time step.This domain decomposition significantly reduces computational cost compared to a full 3D simulation by partitioning the domain into two subregions:the FNPT domain representing the far-field without structures,and the IMLPG_R domain encompassing the porous region.The Unified Navier-Stokes formulation is extended by incorporating additional drag forces governed by Darcy’s law to model the resistance introduced by the porous medium.A stationary background node framework is utilized for interpolation by fluid particles at each time step to accommodate the porous representation.To enhance numerical stability and accuracy,particularly in the presence of sloping boundaries,the Particle Shifting Technique(PST)is integrated into the IMLPG_R model.This implementation involves a modified version of the PST algorithm,where key parameters such as the weight function,velocity ratio,and radius of influence are optimized for IMLPG_R.This is the first time the application of 3D IMLPG_R for porous structure has been reported.Further,the model is subsequently validated against experimental data.

文摘This paper proposes a tamper detection technique for semi-fragile watermarking using Quantizationbased Discrete Cosine Transform(DCT)for tamper localization.In this study,the proposed embedding strategy is investigated by experimental tests over the diagonal order of the DCT coefficients.The cover image is divided into non-overlapping blocks of size 8×8 pixels.The DCT is applied to each block,and the coefficients are arranged using a zig-zag pattern within the block.In this study,the low-frequency coefficients are selected to examine the impact of the imperceptibility score and tamper detection accuracy.High accuracy of tamper detection can be achieved by checking the surrounding blocks to determine whether the corresponding block has been tampered with.The proposed tamper detection is tested under various malicious,incidental,and hybrid attacks(both incidental and malicious attacks).The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed technique achieves a Peak-Signal-to-Noise Ratio(PSNR)value of 41.2318 dB,an average Structural Similarity Index Measure(SSIM)value of 0.9768.The proposed scheme is also evaluated against malicious attacks such as copy-move,object deletion,object manipulation,and collage attacks.The proposed scheme can detect the malicious attack localization under various tampering rates.In addition,the proposed scheme can still detect tampered pixels under a hybrid attack,such as a combination ofmalicious and incidental attacks,with an average accuracy of 96.44%.

文摘Aerogels,renowned as ultra-lightweight solids with exceptional porosity and specific surface area,have emerged as pivotal materials for thermal insulation,catalysis,energy storage,and biomedicine.This review comprehensively evaluates the recent strides in sustainable,high-performance cellulose-based aerogels,emphasizing their fabrication,functionalization,and application prospects.It details the extraction of cellulose fromdiverse sources and its subsequent processing into nanocellulose(e.g.,cellulose nanofibrils and nanocrystals),which serves as the fundamental building block for aerogel synthesis.The critical sol-gel transition,solvent selection,and the pivotal role of drying techniques—freeze-drying,supercritical drying,and ambient pressure drying—in determining final aerogel architecture and properties are systematically analyzed.Special emphasis is placed on the advanced chemical modification of nanocellulose,including esterification,click chemistry,etherification,silanization,and amidation,which tailors surface chemistry to impart hydrophobicity,reactivity,or specific binding sites.The profound influence of cellulose source characteristics(aspect ratio,crystallinity,surface charge)on the pore-forming mechanism and aerogel performance is thoroughly discussed,bridging raw material selection with microstructure design.The review further elucidates the engineering of hybrid and composite aerogels by integrating silica,graphene,polymers,semiconductors,and metal-organic frameworks(MOFs),which synergistically enhance functionalities for targeted applications such as adsorption,photocatalysis,energy storage,sensing,and biomedical engineering.Despite significant progress,challenges remain in scalable green fabrication,balancing ultra-high porosity with mechanical robustness,and deepening the mechanistic understanding in complex applications.This work consolidates the current state-of-the-art,identifies key knowledge gaps,and provides a forward-looking perspective on the development of cellulose aerogels as versatile platforms for next-generation sustainable technologies.
