The lower layer is composed of material with larger particle size and lower asphalt content, which improves its ability to withstand deformation caused by rutting. On the other hand, the middle surface has a higher asphalt content, specifically designed to resist fatigue cracking. This paper examines the mechanical response of two pavement structures and investigates the potential of two measures, inverted asphalt pavement and asphalt mixture design by vertical vibration compaction method(VVCM), in reducing stresses and stress levels in asphalt pavements. Additionally, a large thickness rutting and fatigue test method was developed to study the rutting resistance and fatigue life of the pavement structures, and to construct rutting deformation and fatigue life prediction models. Finally, test sections were paved to verify the feasibility of the inverted pavement and VVCM materials. The findings show that inverted pavement and VVCM materials have a minimal impact on pavement stress, but can reduce pavement shear and tensile stress levels by up to 18%–25%.Furthermore, inverted pavement and VVCM materials have positive effects on improving the rutting resistance and fatigue life of asphalt pavements.展开更多

文摘The 2D/3D heterojunction perovskites have garnered increasing attention due to their exceptional moisture and thermal stability.However,few works have paid attention to the influence of the subsequent change process of 2D/3D heterojunction PSC on the stability of PSCs.Moreover,the evolution of the interface and carrier dynamic behavior of the 2D/3D perovskite films with long-term operation has not been systematically developed befo re.In this work,the effects of 2D/3 D heterojunction evolution on the interface of perovskite films and different carrier dynamics during 2D/3D evolution are systematically analyzed for the first time.The decomposition of 2D/3D heterojunction in the perovskite film will have a certain impact on the surface and carrier dynamics behavior of perovskite.During the evolution of 2D/3D heterojunction,PbI_(2)crystals will appear,which will improve the interfacial energy level matching between the electron transport layer and perovskite film.With a long evolution time,some holes will appear on the surface of perovskite film.The open circuit voltage(V_(OC))of PSCs increased from 1.14 to1.18 V and the PCE increased to 23.21%after 300 h storage in the nitrogen atmosphere,and maintained 89%initial performance for with 3000 h stability test in N_(2)box.This discovery has a significant role in promoting the development of inverted heterojunction PSCs and constructing the revolution mechanism of charge carrier dynamic.

文摘Inorganic CsPbI_(3)perovskite with superior thermal stability and photoelectric properties has developed into a promising candidate for photovoltaic applications.Nevertheless,the power conversion efficiency(PCE)of CsPbI_(3)perovskite solar cells(PSCs)still lags far behind that of both organic-inorganic hybrid counterparts and the theoretical PCE limit,primarily restricted by severe fill factor(FF)and opencircuit voltage(VOC)deficits.Herein,an in-situ self-crosslinking strategy is proposed to construct high-performance inverted inorganic PSCs by incorporating acrylate monomers as additives into CsPbI_(3)perovskite precursors.During the thermal annealing process of perovskite films,acrylate monomers can form network structures by breaking the C=C groups through an in-situ polymerization reaction,mainly anchored at the grain boundaries(GBs)and on the surfaces of perovskite.Meanwhile,the C=O groups of acrylate polymers can favorably coordinate with uncoordinated Pb^(2+),thereby decreasing defect density and stabilizing the perovskite phase.Particularly,with multiple crosslinking and passivation sites,the incorporation of dipentaerythritol pentaacrylate(DPHA)can effectively improve the perovskite film quality,suppress nonradiative recombination,and block moisture erosion.Consequently,the DPHAbased PSC achieves a champion PCE of 20.05%with a record-high FF of 85.05%,both of which rank among the top in the performance of inverted CsPbI_(3)PSCs.Moreover,the unencapsulated DPHA-based device exhibits negligible hysteresis,remarkably improved long-term storage,and operational stability.This work offers a facile and useful strategy to simultaneously promote the efficiency and device stability of inverted inorganic PSCs.

文摘The stability of perovskite solar cells(PSCs)is adversely affected by nonradiative recombination resulting from buried interface defects.Herein,we synthesize a polyionic liquid,poly(p-vinylbenzyl trimethylam-monium hexafluorophosphate)(PTA),and introduce it into the buried interface of PSCs.The quaternary ammonium cation(N(-CH_(3))^(3+))in PTA can fill the vacancies of organic cations within the perovskite structure and reduce shallow energy level defects.Additionally,the hexafluorophosphate(PF6−)in PTA forms a Lewis acid-base interaction with Pb^(2+)in the perovskite layer,effectively passivating deep en-ergy level defects.Furthermore,hydrogen bonding can be established between organic cations and the PF6−anion,preventing the formation of shallow energy level defects.Through this synergistic mecha-nism,the deep and shallow energy level defects are effectively mitigated,resulting in improved device performance.As a result,the resulting treated inverted PSC exhibits an impressive power conversion ef-ficiency(PCE)of 24.72%.Notably,the PTA-treated PSCs exhibit remarkable stability,with 88.5%of the original PCE retained after undergoing heat aging at 85℃ for 1078 h,and 89.1%of the initial PCE main-tained following continuous exposure to light for 1100 h at the maximum power point.Synergistically suppressing multiple defects at the buried interface through the use of polyionic liquids is a promising way to improve the commercial viability of PSCs.

文摘The tensile strain in inorganic perovskite films induced by thermal annealing is one of the primary factors contributing to the inefficiency and instability of inorganic perovskite solar cells(IPSCs),which reduces the defect formation energy.Here,a flexible molecule 5-maleimidovaleric acid(5-MVA)was introduced as a strain buffer to release the residual strain of CsPbI_(2.85)Br_(0.15)perovskite.Maleic anhydride and carboxyl groups in 5-MVA interact strongly with the uncoordinated Pb^(2+)through Lewis acid-base reaction,thus tightly“pull”the perovskite lattice.The in-between soft carbon chain increased the structural flexibility of CsPbI_(2.85)Br_(0.15)perovskite materials,which effectively relieved the intrinsic internal strain of CsPbI_(2.85)Br_(0.15),resisted the corrosion of external strain,and also reduced the formation of defects such as VIand Pb0.In addition,the introduction of 5-MVA improved crystal quality,passivated residual defects,and narrowed energy level barriers.Eventually,power conversion efficiency(PCE)of NiOxbased inverted IPSCs increased from 19.25%to 20.82%with the open-circuit voltage enhanced from 1.164 V to 1.230 V.The release of strain also improved the stability of CsPbI_(2.85)Br_(0.15)perovskite films and devices.

文摘Self-assembled monolayers(SAMs),owing to their amphiphilic nature,tend to aggregate,which impedes the formation of a dense and uniform SAM on the substrate.Additionally,the weak adsorption ability of SAMs on the indium tin oxide(ITO)surface and the desorption of hydroxyl(OH)from the ITO surface induced by polar solvents can lead to the formation of vacancies.Herein,a dimethylacridine-based SAM is incorporated into the perovskite precursor solution.This SAM can be extruded from the precursor solution and enriched on the bottom surface of the perovskite,filling the vacancies and in situ forming a mixed SAM with MeO-2PACz as a hole-selective layer(HSL).The in situ formed mixed SAM optimizes the energy level alignment between the HSL and the perovskite,facilitating hole extraction and alleviating the residual strain of the perovskite film.Consequently,the perovskite solar cells(PSCs),based on the mixed SAM,achieve a power conversion efficiency(PCE)of 25.69%and exhibit excellent operational stability.When this approach is applied to 1.78 eV bandgap PSC devices,it yields a PCE of 20.08%.This work presents a unique strategy for fabricating both high-quality perovskite films and superior buried interfaces,which is also applicable to wide-bandgap PSCs.
文摘In this study,a dynamic model for an inverted pendulum system(IPS)attached to a car is created,and two different control methods are applied to control the system.The designed control algorithms aim to stabilize the pendulum arms in the upright position and the car to reach the equilibrium position.Grey Wolf Optimization-based Linear Quadratic Regulator(GWO-LQR)and GWO-based Fuzzy LQR(FLQR)control algorithms are used in the control process.To improve the performance of the LQR and FLQR methods,the optimum values of the coefficients corresponding to the foot points of the membership functions are determined by the GWO algorithm.Both a graphic and a numerical analysis of the outcomes are provided.In the comparative analysis,it is observed that the GWO-based FLQR method reduces the settling time by 22.58% and the maximum peak value by 18.2% when evaluated in terms of the angular response of the pendulum arm.Furthermore,this approach outperformed comparable research in the literature with a settling time of 2.4 s.These findings demonstrate that the suggested GWO-based FLQR controlmethod outperforms existing literature in terms of the time required for the pendulum arm to reach equilibrium.

文摘Support and maintenance of tunnel excavations during operation are critical to ensure the safety and stability of tunnels.This study proposes a specialized support technology for a railroad tunnel in western China,characterized by substantial deformation and a limited inherent self-stabilizing capacity.The method involves the application of a foam concrete compressible layer at the inverted arch of the tunnel.The effectiveness of the foam concrete layer in mitigating the effect of the surrounding rock on the tunnel inverted arch structure is investigated by a combination of indoor tests and numerical simulations.The laboratory test results show that the train load has little effect on the compressive performance of the foamed concrete compressible layer,which indicates that the foamed concrete compressible layer can be applied in the tunnel invert.By analyzing the support effect of the established model,it is found that the foam concrete compressible layer can effectively absorb the deformation pressure generated by the surrounding rock and protect the secondary lining structure,when the compressible layer density is 500 kg/m^(3) and the thickness is set to 20 cm,the supporting effect is the best.

文摘Accurate forecasting of blast furnace gas(BFG)production is an essential prerequisite for reasonable energy scheduling and management to reduce carbon emissions.Coupling forecasting between BFG generation and consumption dynamics was taken as the research object.A multi-task learning(MTL)method for BFG forecasting was proposed,which integrated a coupling correlation coefficient(CCC)and an inverted transformer structure.The CCC method could enhance key information extraction by establishing relationships between multiple prediction targets and relevant factors,while MTL effectively captured the inherent correlations between BFG generation and consumption.Finally,a real-world case study was conducted to compare the proposed model with four benchmark models.Results indicated significant reductions in average mean absolute percentage error by 33.37%,achieving 1.92%,with a computational time of 76 s.The sensitivity analysis of hyperparameters such as learning rate,batch size,and units of the long short-term memory layer highlights the importance of hyperparameter tuning.

文摘The insect mitogenome is typically a compact circular molecule with highly conserved gene contents.Nonetheless,mitogenome structural variations have been reported in specific taxa,and gene rearrangements,usually the tRNAs,occur in different lineages.Because synapomorphies of mitogenome organizations can provide information for phylogenetic inferences,comparative analyses of mitogenomes have been given increasing attention.However,most studies use a very few species to represent the whole genus,tribe,family,or even order,overlooking potential variations at lower taxonomic levels,which might lead to some incorrect inferences.To provide new insights into mitogenome organizations and their implications for phylogenetic inference,this study conducted comparative analyses for mitogenomes of three social bee tribes(Meliponini,Bombini,and Apini)based on the phylogenetic framework with denser taxonomic sampling at the species and population levels.Comparative analyses revealed that mitogenomes of Apini and Bombini are the typical type,while those of Meliponini show diverse variations in mitogenome sizes and organizations.Large inverted repeats(IRs)cause significant gene rearrangements of protein coding genes(PCGs)and rRNAs in Indo-Malay/Australian stingless bee species.Molecular evolution analyses showed that the lineage with IRs have lower dN/dS ratios for PCGs than lineages without IRs,indicating potential effects of IRs on the evolution of mitochondrial genes.The finding of IRs and different patterns of gene rearrangements suggested that Meliponini is a hotspot in mitogenome evolution.Unlike conserved PCGs and rRNAs whose rearrangements were found only in the mentioned lineages within Meliponini,tRNA rearrangements are common across all three tribes of social bees,and are significant even at the species level,indicating that comprehensive sampling is needed to fully understand the patterns of tRNA rearrangements,and their implications for phylogenetic inference.

文摘This paper proposes an explicit scheme to analyze the failure of a subsea polyhedral tunnel-liner system with an inverted arch under mechanical loading and fire fields.The thin-walled liner is made of Functionally Graded Materials(FGMs),which may improve the stability behavior of the tunnel-liner system.Hydrostatic pressure is inevitable in the liner since underground water may penetrate the cracks of the tunnel,and reach the outer surface of the liner.In addition,an elevated temperature loading is taken into account,considering that fire may occur in the tunnel-liner system.Under the combination of mechanical loading and thermal loading,the liner deforms into a single-lobe shape,which is depicted by a trigonometric function.The total potential energy is expressed quantitatively after the energy approach and thin-walled shell theory are used.The minimum potential energy is obtained when the critical buckling occurs.The critical buckling pressure is calculated,which considers the effect of the thermal field.The present analytical prediction is subsequently compared precisely with other closed-form solutions.Finally,the effects of several parameters,such as the geometric shapes,temperature variations,and volume fraction indices,are discussed to further survey the buckling performance of the nonlinear buckling of an FGM polyhedral liner with an inverted arch.One may address a polyhedral liner with fewer polyhedral sides,and a lower volume fraction index is recommended to rehabilitate cracked tunnels in engineering applications.

文摘Metal oxide charge transport materials are preferable for realizing long-term stable and potentially low-cost perovskite solar cells(PSCs).However,due to some technical difficulties(e.g.,intricate fabrication protocols,high-temperature heating process,incompatible solvents,etc.),it is still challenging to achieve efficient and reliable all-metal-oxide-based devices.Here,we developed efficient inverted PSCs(IPSCs)based on solution-processed nickel oxide(NiO_(x))and tin oxide(SnO_(2))nanoparticles,working as hole and electron transport materials respectively,enabling a fast and balanced charge transfer for photogenerated charge carriers.Through further understanding and optimizing the perovskite/metal oxide interfaces,we have realized an outstanding power conversion efficiency(PCE)of 23.5%(the bandgap of the perovskite is 1.62 eV),which is the highest efficiency among IPSCs based on all-metal-oxide charge transport materials.Thanks to these stable metal oxides and improved interface properties,ambient stability(retaining 95%of initial PCE after 1 month),thermal stability(retaining 80%of initial PCE after 2 weeks)and light stability(retaining 90%of initial PCE after 1000 hours aging)of resultant devices are enhanced significantly.In addition,owing to the low-temperature fabrication procedures of the entire device,we have obtained a PCE of over 21%for flexible IPSCs with enhanced operational stability.

文摘An inverted asphalt pavement is created by reversing the sequence of the lower and middle layers in a conventional asphalt pavement. The lower layer is composed of material with larger particle size and lower asphalt content, which improves its ability to withstand deformation caused by rutting. On the other hand, the middle surface has a higher asphalt content, specifically designed to resist fatigue cracking. This paper examines the mechanical response of two pavement structures and investigates the potential of two measures, inverted asphalt pavement and asphalt mixture design by vertical vibration compaction method(VVCM), in reducing stresses and stress levels in asphalt pavements. Additionally, a large thickness rutting and fatigue test method was developed to study the rutting resistance and fatigue life of the pavement structures, and to construct rutting deformation and fatigue life prediction models. Finally, test sections were paved to verify the feasibility of the inverted pavement and VVCM materials. The findings show that inverted pavement and VVCM materials have a minimal impact on pavement stress, but can reduce pavement shear and tensile stress levels by up to 18%–25%.Furthermore, inverted pavement and VVCM materials have positive effects on improving the rutting resistance and fatigue life of asphalt pavements.

文摘Human pose estimation is a critical research area in the field of computer vision,playing a significant role in applications such as human-computer interaction,behavior analysis,and action recognition.In this paper,we propose a U-shaped keypoint detection network(DAUNet)based on an improved ResNet subsampling structure and spatial grouping mechanism.This network addresses key challenges in traditional methods,such as information loss,large network redundancy,and insufficient sensitivity to low-resolution features.DAUNet is composed of three main components.First,we introduce an improved BottleNeck block that employs partial convolution and strip pooling to reduce computational load and mitigate feature loss.Second,after upsampling,the network eliminates redundant features,improving the overall efficiency.Finally,a lightweight spatial grouping attention mechanism is applied to enhance low-resolution semantic features within the feature map,allowing for better restoration of the original image size and higher accuracy.Experimental results demonstrate that DAUNet achieves superior accuracy compared to most existing keypoint detection models,with a mean PCKh@0.5 score of 91.6%on the MPII dataset and an AP of 76.1%on the COCO dataset.Moreover,real-world experiments further validate the robustness and generalizability of DAUNet for detecting human bodies in unknown environments,highlighting its potential for broader applications.

文摘Chinese named entity recognition(CNER)has received widespread attention as an important task of Chinese information extraction.Most previous research has focused on individually studying flat CNER,overlapped CNER,or discontinuous CNER.However,a unified CNER is often needed in real-world scenarios.Recent studies have shown that grid tagging-based methods based on character-pair relationship classification hold great potential for achieving unified NER.Nevertheless,how to enrich Chinese character-pair grid representations and capture deeper dependencies between character pairs to improve entity recognition performance remains an unresolved challenge.In this study,we enhance the character-pair grid representation by incorporating both local and global information.Significantly,we introduce a new approach by considering the character-pair grid representation matrix as a specialized image,converting the classification of character-pair relationships into a pixel-level semantic segmentation task.We devise a U-shaped network to extract multi-scale and deeper semantic information from the grid image,allowing for a more comprehensive understanding of associative features between character pairs.This approach leads to improved accuracy in predicting their relationships,ultimately enhancing entity recognition performance.We conducted experiments on two public CNER datasets in the biomedical domain,namely CMeEE-V2 and Diakg.The results demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach,which achieves F1-score improvements of 7.29 percentage points and 1.64 percentage points compared to the current state-of-the-art(SOTA)models,respectively.
