文摘Xishui National Forest Park in Heilongjiang Province hosts China's most pristine temperate forests and serves as a key site for ecotourism and forest therapy.However,the emission patterns of phytoncides(key bio active compounds) remain poorly understood,limiting their therapeutic application.This study provides the first comprehensive characterization of spatiotemporal dynamics in airborne phytoncides and their synergistic interactions with environmental factors throughout the autumn-early spring seasonal transition in a temperate forest ecosystem.We analyzed the compositional dynamics of phytoncides and terpenoid content variations using thermal desorption-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry(TD-GC-MS) from September 2024 to March 2025.This period encompassed seasonal transitions from autumn to early spring,including diurnal variations in September and snowfall events in November.The method demonstrated detection limits(LODs) ranging from 1.35 to 5.33 ng m-3 and quantification limits(LOQs) from 4.09 to 16.15 ng m-3.Our results revealed pronounced seasonal fluctuations in phytoncide composition.In September,terpenoids,esters,alcohols,and alkanes displayed a diurnal "decrease-increase" trend,whereas aldehydes and ketones peaked at midday.Notably,esters and alcohols were undetectable in November and January.By January,terpenoids reached their lowest proportion(0.17±0.02%) at noon.Five terpenoids(α-pinene,myrcene,D-limonene,camphene,p-cymene) were detected in September,four(α-pinene,D-limonene,camphene,p-cymene) in November,two(D-limonene,p-cymene) in January,and only p-cymene in March.The total concentration and emission rate of the five terpenoids peaked in September afternoons at 1961.58±106.67 ng m^(-3) and653.86±35.56 ng m^(-3) h^(-1),respectively.Nocturnal emissions(32131.95±2522.21 ng m^(-3)) significantly surpassed daytime levels(14473.04±958.49 ng m^(-3)),with emission rates escalating from 1447.30±95.85 ng m^(-3) h^(-1)(day) to 5355.33±420.37 ng m^(-3) h^(-1)(night),marking a3.7-fold increase.Snowfall dramatically elevated terpenoid concentrations(pre-snowfall:158.58±14.12 ng m^(-3);post-snowfall:1080.57±57.76 ng m^(-3)) and emission rates(pre-snowfall:52.86±4.71 ng m^(-3) h^(-1);post-snowfall:360.19±19.25 ng m^(-3) h^(-1)),reflecting a 6.8-fold surge.This study underscores the profound influence of light intensity,seasonal shifts,and climatic conditions on airborne phytoncide levels,offering a scientific foundation for optimizing forest therapy and ecotourism strategies.

文摘Taking half-tube part with curvature as an example,the Impact Hydroforming(IHF)characteristics were studied by combining the actual forming experiment and numerical simulation.The IHF experiment showed that wrinkles appeared at the bottom of the part during single-step forming,but no wrinkles were observed during double-step forming.The thinning rate and deviation of the wall thickness of the part in each area were less than 20%and 2.7 mm,correspondingly,and the drawing depth of the part reached 45.8 mm.The effect of double-step forming was better than that of single-step forming,which was related to the IHF forming law.Besides,the characteristics of the IHF process were studied by numerical simulation.The results indicated that when double-step forming was utilized,there was almost no velocity field in the opposite direction of deformation after the bottom of the part contacted the die,and the existence of stress state at the bottom would restrain and eliminate the wrinkles.The inertia effect evolved with the driving pressure.Specially,the inertia effect can improve the flow of metal and reduce the deviation of the wall thickness of the part under double-step forming.

文摘In this study,an inverse design framework was established to find lightweight honeycomb structures(HCSs)with high impact resistance.The hybrid HCS,composed of re-entrant(RE)and elliptical annular re-entrant(EARE)honeycomb cells,was created by constructing arrangement matrices to achieve structural lightweight.The machine learning(ML)framework consisted of a neural network(NN)forward regression model for predicting impact resistance and a multi-objective optimization algorithm for generating high-performance designs.The surrogate of the local design space was initially realized by establishing the NN in the small sample dataset,and the active learning strategy was used to continuously extended the local optimal design until the model converged in the global space.The results indicated that the active learning strategy significantly improved the inference capability of the NN model in unknown design domains.By guiding the iteration direction of the optimization algorithm,lightweight designs with high impact resistance were identified.The energy absorption capacity of the optimal design reached 94.98%of the EARE honeycomb,while the initial peak stress and mass decreased by 28.85%and 19.91%,respectively.Furthermore,Shapley Additive Explanations(SHAP)for global explanation of the NN indicated a strong correlation between the arrangement mode of HCS and its impact resistance.By reducing the stiffness of the cells at the top boundary of the structure,the initial impact damage sustained by the structure can be significantly improved.Overall,this study proposed a general lightweight design method for array structures under impact loads,which is beneficial for the widespread application of honeycomb-based protective structures.

文摘Material phase-transition represents a significant phenomenon and mechanism in the context of hypervelocity protection.This study presents a thorough analysis of the phase-transition phenomena induced by shock pressure as the shock wave propagates initially to the rear of the projectile.The shock wave that induces a phase-transition is commonly referred to as a macroscopic phase-transition wave,whereas the interface that separates the distinct phases is referred to as macroscopic phase-boundary.The contact interface between the spherical projectile and the thin plate,characterized by its curved surface,plays a significant role in the nonlinear propagation and evolution of wave systems.The pressure distribution along the central axis of a spherical projectile is derived in accordance with the linear decay law observed for axial pressure.On this basis,a quadratic function is employed to characterize the trend of changes in wave front pressure,thereby facilitating the establishment of a model for wave front pressure distribution.Using the phase-transition pressure criterion for materials,the wave front phase evolution process is derived,and the macroscopic phase-boundary is determined.Based on the geometric propagation model(GPM)and the pressure distribution of the wave front,a phase geometric propagation model(PGPM)is proposed.The phase distribution of a spherical projectile impacting a thin plate is obtained by theoretical methods.The accuracy of the PGPM is subsequently validated through a comparison of its results with those obtained from numerical simulations.

文摘Protective hardware is essential for mitigating damage caused by unavoidable falls in humanoid robots.Despite notable progress in fall protection hardware,the theoretical foundation for modeling and the feasibility of conducting full-scale fall experiments on robots or their surrogates remain somewhat limited.This paper proposes a method for optimizing the thickness of Expandable Polyethylene(EPE),which is used as back protection for the Chubao humanoid robot,based on small-scale impact test data to predict full-scale behavior.The optimal thickness is defined as a balance between compact design and protective effectiveness.An equivalent impact model characterized by four parameters:contact area S,mass m,fall height h,and cushioning material thickness d is introduced to describe impact conditions.The relationship between the peak impact acceleration ap and material thickness d,which forms the core of the method and gives rise to the name AP-D,is analyzed through their plotted curves.After introducing three characteristic parameters and two correction fac-tors,the relationship among the aforementioned variables is derived.Subsequently,both the optimal thickness do and its corresponding peak impact acceleration aop are predicted via nonlinear and linear regression models.Finally,the accuracy and effectiveness of the theoretically derived optimal thickness are validated on both a dummy and the actual robot.With the cushioning material applied,the peak chest acceleration is reduced to 41.57g for the dummy and 32.08g for the robot.

文摘Drilling and blasting tunneling is a cyclic process in which tunnel rock undergoes repeated blast loading,affecting its dynamic characteristics,energy evolution,and damage progression.To explore the dynamic mechanical properties and damage mechanisms of carbonaceous slate under cyclic impact loads of varying intensities,cyclic dynamic tests are conducted using a triaxial split Hopkinson pressure bar.This study analyzes the stress-strain relationship,energy damage evolution,and macro-to-micro failure characteristics.The results show that peak stress and strain are significantly influenced by impact intensity and the number of impacts.The initial dynamic stress is positively correlated with the impact intensity,but with more impact,the dynamic stress decreases while the peak strain increases.Energy evolution follows a pattern of"slow growthfluctuating growthrapid growth,"with the crack initiation stress and its proportion decreasing.CT and SEM analyses reveal that as the impact intensity increases,failure becomes more chaotic,the fracture volume increases,and the fracture mode shifts from interlayer and intergranular to through-layer and trans-granular fractures.These findings provide an experimental basis for soft rock tunnel stability analysis.

文摘Kinetic impact is the most practical planetary-defense technique,with momentum-transfer efficiency central to deflection design.We present a Monte Carlo photometric framework that couples ejecta sampling,dynamical evolution,and image synthesis to compare directly with HST,LICIACube,ground-based and Lucy observations of the DART impact.Decomposing ejecta into(1)a highvelocity(~1600 m/s)plume exhibiting Na/K resonance,(2)a low-velocity(~1 m/s)conical component shaped by binary gravity and solar radiation pressure,and(3)meter-scale boulders,we quantify each component’s mass and momentum.Fitting photometric decay curves and morphological evolution yields size-velocity distributions and,via scaling laws,estimates of Dimorphos’bulk density,cratering parameters,and cohesive strength that agree with dynamical constraints.Photometric ejecta modeling therefore provides a robust route to constrain momentum enhancement and target properties,improving predictive capability for kinetic-deflection missions.
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In the study of thin-walled wedge shells subjected to lateral water entry impact loads,similarity theory is employed to predict the behavior of the prototype by analyzing the dynamic response of the model.However,the traditional similarity law for structural impact fails to accurately describe the relationship between the dynamic responses of the model and the prototype,mainly due to the ignoring of the fluid-structure coupling effect and geometric distortion in the thickness direction.To address this limitation,this study employs dimensional analysis to derive the scaling factors for achieving structural similarity during water entry while considering the effects of fluid-structure coupling.Based on the analysis of the governing equations for thin-walled wedge shells under water entry impact loads,the scaling factor accounting for geometric distortion for water entry of wedge shells is determined.Numerical models are established to verify the applicability of the geometric distortion similarity model with different materials.The results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed similarity model,which significantly reduces the disparities in displacement peaks and energy between the scaled model and the prototype.In addition,experimental platforms are constructed to further verify the proposed similarity model by performing vertical water entry tests on thickness-distorted and material-distorted specimens.

文摘Environmental problems are intensifying due to the rapid growth of the population,industry,and urban infrastructure.This expansion has resulted in increased air and water pollution,intensified urban heat island effects,and greater runoff from parks and other green spaces.Addressing these challenges requires prioritizing green infrastructure and other sustainable urban development strategies.This study introduces a novel Integrated Decision Support System that combines Pythagorean Fuzzy Sets with the Advanced Alternative Ranking Order Method allowing for Two-Step Normalization(AAROM-TN),enhanced by a dual weighting strategy.The weighting approach integrates the Criteria Importance Through Intercriteria Correlation(CRITIC)method with the Criteria Importance through Means and Standard Deviation(CIMAS)technique.The originality of the proposed framework lies in its ability to objectively quantify criteria importance using CRITIC,incorporate decision-makers’preferences through CIMAS,and capture the uncertainty and hesitation inherent in human judgment via Pythagorean Fuzzy Sets.A case study evaluating green infrastructure alternatives in metropolitan regions demonstrates the applicability and effectiveness of the framework.A sensitivity analysis is conducted to examine how variations in criteria weights affect the rankings and to evaluate the robustness of the results.Furthermore,a comparative analysis highlights the practical and financial implications of each alternative by assessing their respective strengths and weaknesses.

文摘Sandwich structures are widely favored for their lightweight,high strength and superior impact mitigation capabilities in blast mitigation and transportation safety applications.Their application in large-scale,high-energy rockfall protection remains limited due to their relatively low volumetric energy absorption efficiency and the complex fabrication processes of key energy-absorbing components.To address these limitations,this study proposes a novel sandwich structure incorporating mild steel tubes as core energy absorbers to efficiently mitigate highenergy rockfall impacts.A finite element model was developed in LS-DYNA to systematically investigate the deformation and energy absorption behaviors.Comprehensive parametric analyses were conducted to quantify the effects of key design variables,including tube wall thickness,tube spacing(number of tubes),and infill materials.The results demonstrate that increasing tube wall thickness significantly enhances ultimate energy absorption,with 12-mm-thick tubes absorbing 2.2 times more energy than 6-mm-thick tubes.Lateral constraints induced by adjacent tubes improve specific energy absorption per unit displacement by approximately 30%-45%.Furthermore,incorporating infill materials considerably enhances energy absorption,with aluminum foam infills achieving an 81%increase compared to empty tubes.Nevertheless,higher energy absorption capacity typically leads to greater peak impact forces,increasing the number of tubes offers a better balance between energy absorption and impact force,optimizing the structural performance.These findings provide valuable theoretical insights and practical guidelines for designing sandwich structures in civil and infrastructure engineering applications for effective rockfall protection.

文摘Compared with traditional energy sources,wind power has a lower environmental impact.However,emissions are still generated across the life cycle of wind turbines,from production to recycling.As wind power rapidly develops and deployment increases,these impacts are becoming increasingly evident.A comprehensive understanding of these impacts is crucial for sustainable development.Based on the harmonization of previous detailed life cycle assessment(LCA)studies,this study develops a simplified LCA model that estimates the life cycle environmental impacts of wind turbines based on their nominal power.Using this simplified LCA model,we assess the global warming potential(GWP),acidification potential(AP),and cumulative energy demand(CED)of wind power at the regional scale for 2022 and under three future scenarios(high-power wind turbine promotion,reduced wind curtailment,and a comprehensive development scenario).The results indicate that in 2022,the life cycle GWP,AP,and CED of wind power in western China were 10.76 g CO_(2) eq/kWh,0.177 g SO_(2) eq/kWh,and 17.6 kJ/kWh,respectively.Scenario simulations suggest that reducing wind curtailment is the most effective approach for reducing emissions in Inner Mongolia,Gansu,Qinghai,Ningxia,and Xinjiang,producing average decreases of 8.64%in GWP,8.39%in AP,and 9.26%in CED.In contrast,for Guangxi,Chongqing,Sichuan,Guizhou,Yunnan,Xizang,and Shaanxi,the promotion of high-power wind turbines provides greater environmental benefits than reducing curtailment,producing average decreases of 3.45%,3.09%,and 4.29%in GWP,AP,and CED,respectively.These findings help clarify the environmental impact of wind power across its life cycle at the regional scale and provide theoretical references for the direction of future wind power development and the formulation of related policies.

文摘The penetration of shaped charge jets into targets at high velocities is significantly influenced by the compressibility effect,while at low velocities,the strength effect becomes predominant.In the latter regime,material strength dictates the resistance to plastic deformation and flow,a contrast to the shockwave-dominated interactions where compressibility is key.This paper presents a self-consistent compressible penetration theory that considers both the axial penetration and radial crater growth of shaped charge jets into targets.An integrated approach where the axial and radial dynamics are coupled has been proposed,influencing each other through shared physical principles rather than being treated as separate,empirically linked phenomena.The presented theory is rooted in the compressible Bernoulli equation and the linear Rankine-Hugoniot relation.These foundational equations are employed to accurately model the high-pressure shock state and subsequent material flow at the jet-target interface,providing a robust physical basis for the penetration model.Notably,it considers the target material's compressibility,which elevates the pressure at the jet-target interface beyond that observed with incompressible materials.This pressure increase is directly proportional to the target's degree of compressibility.As such,this model of compressible penetration reorients the analytical approach:rather than merely estimating penetration resistance,it determines this value from the target material's specific compressibility and yield strength.This shift from empirical correlations to a physics-based derivation of penetration resistance enhances the model's predictive power,particularly for novel target materials or engagement conditions outside established experimental datasets.This investigation establishes a quantitative link between the material's yield strength and its penetration resistance.The accuracy of this penetration resistance value is paramount,as it significantly influences the predicted crater diameter;indeed,the crater diameter's sensitivity to this resistance underscores the necessity for its precise determination.Ultimately,by integrating the yield strength of the target material,this framework enables the prediction of both the penetration depth and the resultant crater diameter from a shaped charge jet.The theory's validation involved two experimental sets:the first focused on shaped charge jet penetration into 45#steel at varied stand-offs,while the second utilized targets of high-to ultrahigh-strength steel-fiber reactive powder concrete(RPC)with differing strength characteristics.These experimental campaigns were specifically chosen to test the theory against both ductile metallic alloys,where plastic flow is significant,and advanced quasi-brittle cementitious composites,presenting a broad spectrum of material responses and penetration challenges.Resulting hole profiles derived from theoretical calculations demonstrated a strong correspondence with empirical measurements for both material types.
