文摘With the growing global demand for energy,deep underground salt caverns are emerging as a potential solution for large-scale energy storage.In this study,multistage cyclic loading tests were conducted on rock salt at different temperatures in combination with real-time acoustic emission(AE)monitoring.The results show that the cumulative AE count increases stepwise with increasing cyclic stress.The peak frequency is concentrated primarily in the medium-frequency range,exhibiting a band distribution across low-,medium-,and high-frequency ranges.As the temperature increases,the proportion of low-frequency signals decreases from 14.32%to 5.76%,whereas the proportion of medium-frequency signals increases from 85.48%to 94.1%.The proportion of high-frequency signals remains relatively constant between 0.1%and 0.2%.The amplitude-count relationship of the AE signals demonstrates a strong negative power-law correlation.Furthermore,with increasing temperature,the negative power-law exponent of the amplitude gradually decreases,with the b value decreasing from 1.096 to 0.837 and the a value decreasing from 7.4871 to 6.6982.Under all four temperature conditions,the dominant failure mode in rock salt is tensile cracking.However,as the temperature increases,the proportion of tensile cracks decreases from 88.59%to 75.12%,whereas the proportion of shear cracks at 80℃is nearly double that at 20℃.This finding indicates that as the temperature increases,the ductility of the material increases,and the crack propagation mode shifts from tensile to shear.This research provides valuable insights for the design and stability assessment of salt cavern reservoirs for deep underground energy storage systems.

文摘The automatic loading systems of artillery are critical for the accurate,efficient,and reliable delivery of pro-jectiles and propellants into the gun chamber.In modern artillery,the ammunition conveyor serves as the end effector of the automatic loading system,and its motion state significantly impacts the accuracy of projectiles.Therefore,it is of immense importance to precisely and effectively evaluate the reliability of the motion accuracy of the ammunition conveyor.This paper aims to propose a practical and efficient analysis method for evaluating the reliability of the motion accuracy of the ammunition conveyor.The proposed approach involves the use of a deep learning network to approximate the physical model and the extremum method to obtain a single cycle sequence decoupling strategy for solving the time-varying reliability issue of complex systems.Employing this strategy,the time-varying reliability of the ammunition conveyor is transformed into a static reliability problem.The proposed method includes the use of a deep feedforward neural network,second-order saddle point ap-proximation(SPA)method,extremum method,and efficient global optimization(EGO)technology.The results reveal that the reliability of the motion accuracy of the ammunition conveyor is 93.42%,with the maximum failure probability occurring at 0.21 s.These results serve as an important reference for the structural optimi-zation design of the ammunition conveyor based on reliability and the maintenance of the operational process.

文摘Large-scale geological energy storage plays a crucial role in balancing the intermittency of renewable energy.As an energy storage medium,soaked sandstone has a wide range of applications in geological energy storage.Understanding the damage characteristics in soaked sandstones is essential for ensuring the stability and longevity of these energy storage systems.This study involved multi-stage cyclic loading tests conducted on soaked sandstone to explore the damage evolution throughout the loading process.The findingsreveal several important insights:(1)The plastic hysteresis loops observed during multi-stage cyclic loading evolved from dense to sparse.An increase in stress level led to greater damage in the rock,as evidenced by an increase in accumulated peak/plastic strains.(2)Energy density and stress level are related by quadratic polynomial relationships.The elastic and dissipated energy densities are related by a linear law.The average energy storage coefficientdecreased by up to 24.1%with increasing stress amplitude,reflectingchanges in energy dynamics within the samples.(3)AE counts,amplitude,and frequency provided critical insights into rock damage and fracture patterns.The greater the loading rate and stress amplitude,the lower the proportion of high-amplitude,high-peak frequency,and shear-type fractures.Increasing stress amplitude caused a maximum 16.63%reduction in the AE bvalue,indicating shifts in fracture behavior under varying stress conditions.(4)The increase in loading rate and stress amplitude promotes the transformation of micropores and mesopores to macropores/microcracks.(5)Damage variables,definedin terms of cumulative dissipation energy,aligned closely with the fatigue damage model under multi-stage cyclic loading.Accelerated damage primarily occurred during the finalstages of fatigue loading,highlighting critical periods in the degradation of soaked sandstones.This study can offer guidance for designing operational parameters for energy storage geological bodies dominated by soaked sandstones.
文摘This study investigates the performance of high-strength cable bolts under impact loading conditions representative of rock bursts in underground environments.Although widely used,the dynamic behaviour of these cable bolts has received limited experimental attention,and their effectiveness in seismically active zones remains a subject of ongoing debate.To address this gap,a reverse pull-out test machine integrated with a drop hammer rig was employed.Tests were conducted on 70-t SUMO bulbed and non-bulbed cable bolts with encapsulation lengths of 300 and 450 mm,subjected to an impact energy of 14.52 k J.Results indicate that non-bulbed cables,despite showing lower initial peak loads(average 218 vs.328 k N for bulbed cables at 300 mm encapsulation),demonstrated superior energy absorption(average 11.26 vs.8.75 k J)and displacement capacity(average 48.40 vs.36.25 mm).Increasing the encapsulation length for bulbed cables led to a reduction in initial peak load but improved displacement and energy absorption.The dominant failure mechanism was debonding at the cable-grout interface,characterised by frictional sliding and cable rotation.These findings provide new insights into the energy dissipation mechanisms of cables and support the development of more resilient ground support systems for dynamically active conditions.

文摘Investigating effect of recrystallization mechanism on deformation mode and texture evolution is conducive to controlling deformation mechanism and texture in magnesium alloys under medium-high temperature impact loading.In the present study,a Johnson-Cook model incorporating twin strengthening was established to simulate macro-deformation,and a twinning induced recrystallization(TDRX)model and bulging recrystallization(GBBDRX)model are introduced into visco-plastic self consistant(VPSC)framework to quantitatively study the deformation mechanism of pre-twinned AZ31 magnesium alloy during medium-high temperature impact loading.Both TDRX and GBBDRX occur,with basal slip as the dominant slip system,followed by pyramidal〈c+a〉slip and prismatic slip.The dynamic recrystallization(DRX)significantly influences basal and pyramidal〈c+a〉slip systems,with minimal impact on secondary deformation mechanism.In addition,the recrystallization mechanism of grain boundary bowing increases the activity of basal slip and decreases the activity of pyramidal〈c+a〉slip.The nucleation and growth of recrystallized grains enhance basal slip activity and suppress pyramidal〈c+a〉slip,leading to the formation of a strong basal texture.As dynamic recrystallization progresses,a bimodal texture develops,characterized by a reduction in basal component pole density and a more pronounced basal slip.

文摘The growing demands on global infrastructure highlight the critical need for durable and efficient pavement systems,particularly under the stress of repetitive heavy traffic loads.The use of geosynthetics within the pavement structure increases the load-carrying capacity of unbound pavement layers by providing lateral restraint,improving vertical stress distribution,and enhancing bearing capacity.Such reinforcement typically aims to either improve the service life of pavements or achieve equivalent performance with a reduced granular cover.Previous and ongoing research quantifies geosynthetic performance in pavement reinforcement using various testing methods.Among these,laboratory model box tests subjected to cyclic loading are pivotal,as they closely replicate real-world traffic conditions.Hence,these studies are essential for understanding how geosynthetics distribute loads and enhance pavement durability.This facilitates the development of optimized geosynthetic design and installation practices,accelerating the loading process to simulate years of traffic wear in a shorter period.This review discusses the improved rutting resistance of unbound pavements reinforced with geosynthetic materials,specifically drawing on data from cyclic plate load tests conducted on laboratory model boxes,as highlighted in the literature.Key variables such as optimum geosynthetic placement,geosynthetic material properties,performance of different geosynthetic materials and the effects of aperture shape and size on rutting resistance are discussed.Furthermore,the review assesses various predictive rutting models,analysing their applicability and accuracy in forecasting the rutting performance of geosynthetic-reinforced unbound pavements.This comprehensive literature review aids pavement engineers and researchers,in guiding the selection and design of geosynthetics to optimize pavement durability and functionality under repetitive traffic loads.

文摘The development of metallic mineral resources generates a significant amount of solid waste,such as tailings and waste rock.Cemented tailings and waste-rock backfill(CTWB)is an effective method for managing and disposing of this mining waste.This study employs a macro-meso-micro testing method to investigate the effects of the waste rock grading index(WGI)and loading rate(LR)on the uniaxial compressive strength(UCS),pore structure,and micromorphology of CTWB materials.Pore structures were analyzed using scanning electron microscopy(SEM)and mercury intrusion porosimetry(MIP).The particles(pores)and cracks analysis system(PCAS)software was used to quantitatively characterize the multi-scale micropores in the SEM images.The key findings indicate that the macroscopic results(UCS)of CTWB materials correspond to the microscopic results(pore structure and micromorphology).Changes in porosity largely depend on the conditions of waste rock grading index and loading rate.The inclusion of waste rock initially increases and then decreases the UCS,while porosity first decreases and then increases,with a critical waste rock grading index of 0.6.As the loading rate increases,UCS initially rises and then falls,while porosity gradually increases.Based on MIP and SEM results,at waste rock grading index 0.6,the most probable pore diameters,total pore area(TPA),pore number(PN),maximum pore area(MPA),and area probability distribution index(APDI)are minimized,while average pore form factor(APF)and fractal dimension of pore porosity distribution(FDPD)are maximized,indicating the most compact pore structure.At a loading rate of 12.0 mm/min,the most probable pore diameters,TPA,PN,MPA,APF,and APDI reach their maximum values,while FDPD reaches its minimum value.Finally,the mechanism of CTWB materials during compression is analyzed,based on the quantitative results of UCS and porosity.The research findings play a crucial role in ensuring the successful application of CTWB materials in deep metal mines.

文摘With the maturation of coalbed methane(CBM)exploitation and the transition into the late stages of dewatering and gas production,liquid loading in gathering pipelines has emerged as a major constraint on productivity and operational stability.Based on real-time field data and gas-liquid physicochemical analyses,this study elucidates the mechanisms governing liquid loading formation under varying temperature,pressure,and water saturation conditions.An HYSYS model is employed to determine the water dew point,while the Turner model is used to evaluate the critical conditions for liquid holdup.The results indicate that gas water saturation exerts the dominant influence on liquid loading risk,followed by pressure,whereas temperature plays a comparatively minor role.When water saturation exceeds 2%and the operating temperature falls below the dew point,condensation-driven liquid loading increases sharply.To further characterize the spatial distribution of liquid accumulation,a steady-state OLGA model of a DN100 gathering pipeline network is developed to examine the effects of pipe diameter,water saturation,and soil temperature.The simulations show that larger pipe diameters and higher water saturation significantly aggravate liquid holdup,while elevated soil temperature mitigates liquid accumulation.Moreover,the liquid holdup ratio is found to correlate closely with flow regime transitions,confirming its suitability as a key indicator of liquid loading risk.Based on these findings,optimization strategies for pipeline design and operation are proposed.To mitigate liquid loading,the gathering pipeline velocity should be maintained above the critical value of 1.63 m/s,and the gas water content should be strictly controlled below 2%.Under operating conditions representative of the Hancheng block,it is recommended to reduce the pipeline diameter from DN130 to DN100 to enhance self-cleaning capacity.In addition,thermal insulation should be applied during winter operation to maintain the pipe wall temperature above 10◦C,thereby suppressing condensation-induced liquid accumulation.

文摘During deep coal mining,an instability failure of coal usually occurs under the combined effect of initial damage and triaxial cyclic loading and unloading(TCLU).Therefore,this study investigated the impact of initial damage on mechanical behavior and acoustic emission(AE)characteristics of coal under TCLU.Initial damage variables(IDVs)of coal specimens were quantified using preloading,followed by TCLU experiments to assess the deformation,energy distribution,and fracture development.The results revealed that the increase in IDVs significantly reduced the structural integrity of coal specimens,increased the cumulative irreversible strain,and enhanced the dissipated energy owing to microfracture expansion.Moreover,AE monitoring showed earlier activation of fractures and a higher occurrence of large-scale rupture events of coal specimens with high IDVs,which correlated with decreasing AE b values(reflecting the different scales of fracture within specimens)and increasing S values(reflecting the AE activity within specimens).Additionally,computed tomography analysis revealed intensified fracture networks and increasing three-dimensional fractal dimensions of coal specimens with higher IDVs.Finally,the coupling effect of TCLU and initial damage on the weakening mechanism of coal was investigated.Initial damage significantly reduced the structural integrity of coal by increasing the number of weak planes within coal specimens,contributing to the earlier activation and rapid expansion of fractures at low stress levels under TCLU and eventually accelerating the weakening process of coal.This study provides a scientific basis and theoretical support for the prevention and control of dynamic disasters in deep coal mining.

文摘Load frequency control(LFC)is a critical function to balance the power consumption and generation.Thegrid frequency is a crucial indicator for maintaining balance.However,the widely used information and communication infrastructure for LFC increases the risk of being attacked by malicious actors.The dynamic load altering attack(DLAA)is a typical attack that can destabilize the power system,causing the grid frequency to deviate fromits nominal value.Therefore,in this paper,we mathematically analyze the impact of DLAA on the stability of the grid frequency and propose the network parameter regulation(NPR)to mitigate the impact.To begin with,the dynamic LFC model is constructed by highlighting the importance of the network parameter.Then,we model the DLAA and analyze its impact on LFC using the theory of second-order dynamic systems.Finally,we model the NPR and prove its effect in mitigating the DLAA.Besides,we construct a least-effort NPR considering its infrastructure cost and aim to reduce the operation cost.Finally,we carry out extensive simulations to demonstrate the impact of the DLAA and evaluate the mitigation performance of NPR.The proposed cost-benefit NPR approach can not only mitigate the impact of DLAA with 100%and also save 41.18$/MWh in terms of the operation cost.

文摘This work aims to reveal the mechanical responses and energy evolution characteristics of skarn rock under constant amplitude-varied frequency loading paths.Testing results show that the fatigue lifetime,stress−strain responses,deformation,energy dissipation and fracture morphology are all impacted by the loading rate.A pronounced influence of the loading rate on rock deformation is found,with slower loading rate eliciting enhanced strain development,alongside augmented energy absorption and dissipation.In addition,it is revealed that the loading rate and cyclic loading amplitude jointly influence the phase shift distribution,with accelerated rates leading to a narrower phase shift duration.It is suggested that lower loading rate leads to more significant energy dissipation.Finally,the tensile or shear failure modes were intrinsically linked to loading strategy,with cyclic loading predominantly instigating shear damage,as manifest in the increased presence of pulverized grain particles.This work would give new insights into the fortification of mining structures and the optimization of mining methodologies.

文摘Studies of wave-current interactions are vital for the safe design of structures.Regular waves in the presence of uniform,linear shear,and quadratic shear currents are explored by the High-Level Green-Naghdi model in this paper.The five-point central difference method is used for spatial discretization,and the fourth-order Adams predictor-corrector scheme is employed for marching in time.The domain-decomposition method is applied for the wave-current generation and absorption.The effects of currents on the wave profile and velocity field are examined under two conditions:the same velocity of currents at the still-water level and the constant flow volume of currents.Wave profiles and velocity fields demonstrate substantial differences in three types of currents owing to the diverse vertical distribution of current velocity and vorticity.Then,loads on small-scale vertical cylinders subjected to regular waves and three types of background currents with the same flow volume are investigated.The maximum load intensity and load fluctuation amplitude in uniform,linear shear,and quadratic shear currents increase sequentially.The stretched superposition method overestimates the maximum load intensity and load fluctuation amplitude in opposing currents and underestimates these values in following currents.The stretched superposition method obtains a poor approximation for strong nonlinear waves,particularly in the case of the opposing quadratic shear current.

文摘Data center industries have been facing huge energy challenges due to escalating power consumption and associated carbon emissions.In the context of carbon neutrality,the integration of data centers with renewable energy has become a prevailing trend.To advance the renewable energy integration in data centers,it is imperative to thoroughly explore the data centers’operational flexibility.Computing workloads and refrigeration systems are recognized as two promising flexible resources for power regulationwithin data centermicro-grids.This paper identifies and categorizes delay-tolerant computing workloads into three types(long-running non-interruptible,long-running interruptible,and short-running)and develops mathematical time-shifting models for each.Additionally,this paper examines the thermal dynamics of the computer room and derives a time-varying temperature model coupled to refrigeration power.Building on these models,this paper proposes a two-stage,multi-time scale optimization scheduling framework that jointly coordinates computing workloads time-shift in day-ahead scheduling and refrigeration power control in intra-day dispatch to mitigate renewable variability.A case study demonstrates that the framework effectively enhances the renewable-energy utilization,improves the operational economy of the data center microgrid,and mitigates the impact of renewable power uncertainty.The results highlight the potential of coordinated computing workloads and thermal system flexibility to support greener,more cost-effective data center operation.

文摘Significant diurnal temperature variations in mountainous rack railways cause stiffness mismatches between the rack structure and simply supported bridges,leading to critical failures like bolt loosening and rack fractures.This study develops a dynamic model of the vehicle-rack-bridge system based on train-track-bridge interaction theory,integrating gear-rack meshing and wheel-rail contact mechanisms.The model analyzes the dynamic response of bridges with varying spans under combined thermal and dynamic loading.Numerical simulations,conducted using finite element analysis,reveal peak vibration accelerations of 1.3 m/s^(2)for the rack,3.0 m/s^(2)for the rail,1.2 m/s^(2)for the sleeper,and 0.1 m/s^(2)for the bridge,with maximum stresses of 3 MPa in the rack,8 MPa in the rail,and 25 MPa in connecting bolts.The results show significant span-dependent amplification of stress and strain in the rack system under thermo-mechanical loading,exceeding material strength limits at 60-meter spans.An innovative elastic connection method is proposed to mitigate stress concentrations effectively,en-hancing system durability.This study introduces a novel approach to modeling complex thermo-mechanical interactions in rack railway systems,validated through extensive simulations,and provides a practical solution for improving structural resilience,offering theoretical guidance for optimizing rack-bridge system design to ensure operational safety in extreme environmental conditions.

文摘Unbonded post-tensioned(PT)concrete systems are widely used in safety-critical structures,yet model-ing practices for prestress implementation and tendon-concrete interaction remain inconsistent.This study investigates the effects of sheath(duct)implementation and confinement assumptions through nonlinear finite element analysis.Four modeling cases were defined,consisting of an explicit sheath without tendon-concrete confinement(S)and three no-sheath variants with different confinement levels(X,N,A).One-way beams and two-way panels were analyzed,and panel blast responses were validated against experimental results.In both beams and panels,average initial stress levels were similar across models,through local stress concentrations appeared when the sheath was modeled.Under blast loading,these local effects became critical,and the sheath-implemented model reproduced experimental behavior most accurately,whereas non-implemented models deviated.Reduced blast intensity diminished the differences among models,thereby reaffirming that sheath-induced localization and damage propagation are critical factors.These findings highlight the importance of explicit sheath implementation for realistic numerical assessment of unbonded PT structures under extreme loads.

文摘Air conditioning is a major energy-consuming component in buildings,and accurate air conditioning load forecasting is of great significance for maximizing energy utilization efficiency.However,the deep learning models currently used in the field of air conditioning load forecasting often suffer from issues such as distribution bias in load data and insufficient expression ability of nonlinear features in the model,which affect the accuracy of load forecasting.To address this,this paper proposes a novel load forecasting model.Firstly,the model employs the Dish-TS(DS)module to standardize the input window data through self-learning standardized parameters,thereby addressing the spatial intra-bias problem existing between data.Secondly,DS-Kansformer introduces Kolmogorov-Arnold Networks(KANs)to enhance the expression ability of nonlinear features.Finally,the output window is denormalized through the self-learning parameter of the DS module to restore the original distribution of the predicted data.In this paper,experiments were carried out based on the air-conditioning load dataset collected from a multi-functional comprehensive building,and the experimental results show that after adding the DS module,the Mean Absolute Error(MAE),Root Mean Square Error(RMSE),and R-squared(R^(2))of the model are 20.46%,34.44%,and 92.61%,respectively;after introducing KAN,the MAE,RMSE,and R^(2) are 22.81%,35.72%,and 92.05%,respectively;the model also exhibits high prediction accuracy after integrating the two modules(with RMSE,MAE,and R^(2) being 19.75%,34.05%,and 92.78%,respectively),outperforming common time series prediction models,confirming the reliability and efficiency of the model,which can provide reliable support for intelligent energy management in buildings.

文摘This paper investigates the detection and mitigation of coordinated cyberattacks on Load Frequency Control(LFC)systems integrated with Battery Energy Storage Systems(BESS).As renewable energy sources gain greater penetration,power grids are becoming increasingly vulnerable to cyber threats,potentially leading to frequency instability and widespread disruptions.We model two significant attack vectors:load-altering attacks(LAAs)and false data injection attacks(FDIAs)that corrupt frequency measurements.These are analyzed for their impact on grid frequency stability in both linear and nonlinear LFC models,incorporating generation rate constraints and nonlinear loads.A coordinated attack strategy is presented,combining LAAs and FDIAs to achieve stealthiness by concealing frequency deviations from system operators,thereby maximizing disruption while evading traditional detection.To counteract these threats,we propose an Unknown Input Observer(UIO)-based detection framework for linear and nonlinear LFCs.The UIO is designed using linear matrix inequalities(LMIs)to estimate system states while isolating unknown attack inputs,enabling attack detection through monitoring measurement residuals against a predefined threshold.For mitigation,we leverage BESS capabilities with two adaptive strategies:dynamic mitigation for dynamic LAAs,which tunes BESS parameters to enhance the system’s stability margin and accelerate convergence to equilibrium;and staticmitigation for static LAAs and FDIAs.Simulations show that the UIO achieves high detection accuracy,with residuals exceeding thresholds promptly under coordinated attacks,even in nonlinear models.Mitigation strategies reduce frequency deviations by up to 80%compared to unmitigated cases,restoring stability within seconds.

文摘This study establishes and validates a method for the precise quantification of aquatic microbial loads using microbial diversity absolute quantitative sequencing.By adding synthetic spike-in DNA to water samples from the Dahei River prior to DNA extraction and 16S rRNA gene sequencing,it generates standard curves to convert sequencing data into absolute microbial copy numbers.The method,which is proved highly accurate(R^(2)>0.99),reveals a clear contrast between the river sites:the upstream community has not only a significantly higher total microbial load but also a completely different makeup of species compared to the downstream site.This approach effectively overcomes the limitations of relative abundance analysis,providing a powerful tool for environmental monitoring,and proposes key steps for future standardization to ensure data comparability and integration.
