The nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) technique was applied tothe measurement of sandstone specimens and analysis of the magnetic resonance imaging. Then, the fractal theory was employed tocompute the fractal dimension values of pore development of rocks after different freeze-thaw cycles. The results show that the massand porosity of rocks grow with the increase of freeze-thaw cycles. According to the NMR T2 distribution of sandstones, the poresizes of rock specimens increase after 180 freeze-thaw cycles, especially that of the medium-sized and small-sized pores. The spatialdistribution of sandstone pores after freeze-thaw cycles has fractal features within certain range, and the fractal dimension ofsandstones tends to increase gradually.展开更多

[Method] Single rabbit hair with typical features was selected to observe its mi- croscopic structure from tip to root, and its fiber diameter was also measured. [Result] The rabbit hair tip was constituted by scale layer and cortical layer, without medullary layer; the middle part was generally constituted by scale layer, cortical layer and medullary layer; the root had no medullary layer, and the scale layer was wheatear-shaped. This was the property of rabbit hair, which could be used for comparative studies with other animal fiber and species identification. Rabbit hair had developed medullary layer, and fiber diameter was positively related to column number of medullary cavity. The hair generally was single column, and coarse hair was multi-column. Single rabbit hair was the finest in the tip, coarse in the middle and tapering in the root. The diameter difference of various parts was large, and the ex- ternal growth characteristics was spindle-shaped. [Conclusion] Using biological micro- scope method to identify different animal fur and product species is more objective and simple.展开更多

The results showed that the degree of gelatinization varied in different parts of the grain and in different varieties under the same experimental conditions. The gelatinization of dorsal side was the most complete. Its cells were decomposed totally into puff-like or flocculent materials. The ventral side gelatinized less thoroughly, appearing agglomerate and some cell frames were still visible. The middle part gelatinized most incompletely and the cells were still integrated. Evident differences in gelatinization were observed among different varieties, the dorsal, ventral and middle parts of high quality varieties gelatinized more thoroughly than those of the corresponding parts of low quality varieties respectively. An obvious concavity often appeared in the middle of the cross-section of the low quality grains while the cross-section of high quality grains was normally flat. The same phenomenon was noted when comparing the early maturing indica rice and the late maturing indica rice. Varietal difference of gelatinization in dorsal sides was not as distinct as in middle parts and ventral sides. The difference among dorsal side, middle part and ventral side in gelatinization was greater in low quality grains than that of high quality grains. In addition, a lot of ruptured cells were observed in the cross-section of high quality rice, while few of them could be found in the low quality rice. Apparently, the number of ruptured cells is positively correlated with rice quality. Quality of rice grain also has positive correlation with the rate of water absorption and extension. High rates of water absorption and extension lead to better gelatinization of rice grain, and hence indicate good quality.展开更多

[ Method ] Middle leaves of tobacco cultivar K326 were collected in Pengshui County of Chongqing City for flue-curing experiment using three flue-curing technologies. Leaf samples were collected regularly in the flue-curing process, to investigate the microscopic structure of flue-cured tobaceo leaves. [ Result] During three flue-curing processes, leaves, palisade tissues and sponge tissues shrank gradually. Three flue-euring processes exhibited significant differ- ences in the peak of tissue shrinkage : microscopic structure of flue-cured tobacco leaves in Chinese three-stage tobacco flue-curing process shrank earliest, follower by Chinese quality-improving fragrance-increasing tobacco flue-curing process; flue-eured tobacco leaves in Zimbabwean tobacco flue-curing process presented the latest shrinkage. At 84 h post-curing, leaf thickness in three flue-curing processes showed a descend order of Chinese three-stage tobacco flue-curing process 〉 Chinese quality-improving fragrance-increasing tobacco flue-curing process 〉 Zimbabwean tobacco flue-curing process. Upper and lower epidermal cells in Zimb- abwean tobacco flue-curing process ruptured earlier than other two flue-curing processes; eventually, the majority of cells ruptured and mixed with palisade tissues and sponge tissues. In Chinese quality-improving fragranee-increasing tobacco flue-curing process, only a small number of epidermal cells in dried leaves ruptured. Among three flue-curing technologies, Zimbabwean tobacco flue-curing technology exhibited the greatest damage to epidermal cells, followed by Chinese three-stage tobaceo flue-curing technology; Chinese quality-improving fragrance-increasing tobacco flue-curing technology had the minimum damage to epidermal cells. Mese- phyll cross-section exhibited significant morphological changes in stomata. To be specific, at 0 - 12 h post-curing, stomata of tobacco leaves closed with slightly prominent stamatal apparatuses on upper and lower epidermis; at 24 -72 h post-curing, stomata of tobaceo leaves changed gradually from opening to closure with significantly prominent stomatal apparatuses on upper and lower epidermis; at 84 h post-curing, stomata of tobacco leaves closed, and the majority of stomatal appa- ratuses were significantly prominent. In Chinese quality-improving fragrance-increasing tobacco flue-curing process, only a small number of epidermal ceils ruptured at 84 h pest-flue-curing; palisade tissues and sponge tissues shrank almost simultaneously. Significant gaps were observed between palisade tissues and between pal- isade tissues and sponge tissues. Chinese quality-improving fragrance-increasing tobacco flue-curing technology exhibited lower disorder level compared with other two flue-curing technologies.

For heavy rail steel, the state and the content of La were measured, and the mechanisms and the effects of La on sulfide inclusions, microstracture and properties of steel were determined. Strip-like sulfides disappear in heavy rail steel with La/(O+S)〉3.50, which is shown that the metallurgical function of modifying sulfide inclusions has been achieved by La. La can fine the grain size of the austenite in heavy rail steel. Under the experimental condition, the plasticity and the impacting toughness of heavy rail steel with 0.005wt% La can evidently be improved.展开更多

The result indicates that, continuously under the mechanical power, β-C2 S crystal size would decrease, the micro strain and the effective Beff parameter would increase, and the amorphous phases would be presented. Furthermore, the mechanical power would cause Si-O bond broken and reorganized, the specific surface area would increase, the energy of micro-powder agglomeration vibration would be enhanced and the crystal would be disordered. Finally, β- C2 S was caused to have the mechanochemical change and the activity enhancement.展开更多

The characteristics of humic acid aggregates coagulated by different iron-based coagulants, such as charge, size, fractal dimension and compressibility, have an effect on the cake layer structure. At the optimum iron dose of 0.6 to 0.8 mmol/L for ferric chloride (FC) and polymer ferric sulfate (PFS) pre-coagulation, at the point of charge neutralization for near zero zeta potential, the aggregate particles produced possess the greatest size and highest fractal dimension, which contributes to the cake layer being most loose with high porosity and low compressibility. Thus the membrane filterability is better. At a low or high iron dose of FC and PFS, a high negative or positive zeta potential with high charge repulsion results in so many small aggregate particles and low fractal dimension that the cake layer is compact with low porosity and high compressibility. Therefore the membrane fouling is accelerated and MF permeability becomes worse. The variation of cake layer structure as measured by scanning electric microscopy corresponds with the fact that the smaller the coagulation flocs size and fractal dimension are, the lower the porosity and the tighter the cake layer conformation. This also explains the MF membrane flux variation visually and accurately.展开更多

In this manuscript, a triaxial creep test on deep coal at various pore pressures using a test system that combines in-situ mechanical loading with real-time nuclear magnetic resonance(NMR) detection was conducted.Full-scale quantitative characterization, online real-time detection, and visualization of MPFS during coal creep influenced by pore pressure and stress coupling were performed using NMR and NMR imaging(NMRI) techniques. The results revealed that seepage pores and microfractures(SPM) undergo the most significant changes during coal creep, with creep failure gradually expanding from dense primary pore fractures. Pore pressure presence promotes MPFS development primarily by inhibiting SPM compression and encouraging adsorption pores(AP) to evolve into SPM. Coal enters the accelerated creep stage earlier at lower stress levels, resulting in more pronounced creep deformation. The connection between the micro and macro values was established, demonstrating that increased porosity at different pore pressures leads to a negative exponential decay of the viscosity coefficient. The Newton dashpot in the ideal viscoplastic body and the Burgers model was improved using NMR experimental results, and a creep model that considers pore pressure and stress coupling using variable-order fractional operators was developed. The model’s reasonableness was confirmed using creep experimental data. The damagestate adjustment factors ω and β were identified through a parameter sensitivity analysis to characterize the effect of pore pressure and stress coupling on the creep damage characteristics(size and degree of difficulty) of coal.展开更多

Low reactivity coke A and high reactivity coke B were chosen and charged into the reaction tube in two methods. The results indicated that the mass loss ratio of high reactivity coke in mixed cokes was more significant than that of single high reactivity coke in the middle stage of reaction. Nevertheless, the mass loss ratio of low reactivity coke in mixed cokes was less than that of single low reactivity coke. It was mainly attributed to gas diffusion and internal reaction of coke. When high and low reactivity cokes were mixed, the practical average mass loss ratio was nearly the same as the weighted average. The microscopic structures of coke indicated that with the increase of reaction time, the external and internal layers of low reactivity coke reacted more uniformly with CO2, whereas the reaction degree of external layer of high reactivity coke was obviously higher.展开更多

文摘We considered adding different amounts(1%,2%,3%,and 4%)of EMR to prepare manganese residue polymer magnesium phosphate cement composite(EMR-PMPC).The influence mechanism of EMR doping on the early macroscopic and microscopic pore structure properties of composites was studied by combining macroscopic and microscopic testing methods.The experimental results show that the addition of EMR can improve the working performance of the slurry and enhance the strength in the later stage,the 28 d compressive strength value of the slurry doped with EMR can reach 49.5 MPa.The Mn element and NH4_(+)^(-)N in EMR react with MgO in the raw material to produce Struvite and Mn(OH)_(2)and Mn_(3)(PO_(4))·6H_(2)O gel,the hydration products coexist with each other and lap each other to form a dense microfine structure and effectively refine the pores.The hydration process consists of five stages,mainly concentrated in the first 10 h or less to exothermic mainly,infrared spectral absorption band is mainly composed of O-H bond,H-O-H bond,PO_(4)bond and metal oxygen bond 3 parts,EMR makes the wave number of the absorption band from the ground wave number to the high wave number.EMR doping T_(2)spectral relaxation time will lag behind,the pore size distribution changes.The total porosity and bound fluid saturation decrease with increasing,the free fluid saturation shows the opposite trend,the permeability decreases and then increases.

文摘Understanding the impact of mining disturbances and creep deformation on the macroscopic deformation and the microscopic pore and fracture structures(MPFS)of coal is paramount for ensuring the secure extraction of coal resources.This study conducts cyclic loading-unloading and creep experiments on coal using a low-field nuclear magnetic resonance(NMR)experimental apparatus which is equipped with mechanical loading units,enabling real-time monitoring the T2spectrum.The experiments indicated that cyclic loading-unloading stress paths initiate internal damage within coal samples.Under identical creep stress conditions,coal samples with more initial damages had more substantial instantaneous deformation and creep deformation during the creep process.After undergoing nearly 35 h of staged creep,the total strains for coal samples CC01,CC02,and CC03 reach 2.160%,2.261%,and 2.282%,respectively.In the creep stage,the peak area ratio of seepage pores and microfractures(SPM)gradually diminishes.A higher degree of initial damage leads to a more pronounced compaction trend in the SPM of coal samples.Considering the porosity evolution of SPM during the creep process,this study proposes a novel fractional derivative model for the porosity evolution of SPM.The efficacy of the proposed model in predicting porosity evolution of SPM is substantiated through experimental validation.Furthermore,an analysis of the impact mechanisms on key parameters in the model was carried out.

文摘The mechanisms of La in heavy rail steel were studied by means of experimental measurements, microstructure observation and theoretical analysis in the present work. For heavy rail steel, the state and the content of La were measured, and the mechanisms and the effects of La on sulfide inclusions, microstracture and properties of steel were determined. Strip-like sulfides disappear in heavy rail steel with La/(O+S)〉3.50, which is shown that the metallurgical function of modifying sulfide inclusions has been achieved by La. La can fine the grain size of the austenite in heavy rail steel. Under the experimental condition, the plasticity and the impacting toughness of heavy rail steel with 0.005wt% La can evidently be improved.
文摘Using the laser granularity survey technology , logy, X-ray powder diffraction, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and infrared spectrum anal)sis methods, we studied the microscopic structure and chemical bonds changes of β-C2 S monomineral under the high energy ball grinding function. The result indicates that, continuously under the mechanical power, β-C2 S crystal size would decrease, the micro strain and the effective Beff parameter would increase, and the amorphous phases would be presented. Furthermore, the mechanical power would cause Si-O bond broken and reorganized, the specific surface area would increase, the energy of micro-powder agglomeration vibration would be enhanced and the crystal would be disordered. Finally, β- C2 S was caused to have the mechanochemical change and the activity enhancement.

文摘A cake layer is formed by coagulation aggregates under certain transmembrane pressure in the coagulation-microfiltration (MF) process. The characteristics of humic acid aggregates coagulated by different iron-based coagulants, such as charge, size, fractal dimension and compressibility, have an effect on the cake layer structure. At the optimum iron dose of 0.6 to 0.8 mmol/L for ferric chloride (FC) and polymer ferric sulfate (PFS) pre-coagulation, at the point of charge neutralization for near zero zeta potential, the aggregate particles produced possess the greatest size and highest fractal dimension, which contributes to the cake layer being most loose with high porosity and low compressibility. Thus the membrane filterability is better. At a low or high iron dose of FC and PFS, a high negative or positive zeta potential with high charge repulsion results in so many small aggregate particles and low fractal dimension that the cake layer is compact with low porosity and high compressibility. Therefore the membrane fouling is accelerated and MF permeability becomes worse. The variation of cake layer structure as measured by scanning electric microscopy corresponds with the fact that the smaller the coagulation flocs size and fractal dimension are, the lower the porosity and the tighter the cake layer conformation. This also explains the MF membrane flux variation visually and accurately.

文摘Anti-structured defects bridge atom migration among heterogeneous sublattices facilitating diffusion but could also result in the collapse of ordered structure.Component distribution Ni(75)AlxV(25-x) alloys are investigated using a microscopic phase field model to illuminate relations between anti-structured defects and composition,precipitate order,precipitate type,and phase stability.The Ni(75)AlxV(25-x) alloys undergo single Ni3V(stage Ⅰ),dual Ni3Al and Ni3V(stage Ⅱ with Ni3V prior;and stage Ⅲ with Ni3Al prior),and single Ni3Al(stage Ⅳ) with enhanced aluminum level.For Ni3V phase,anti-structured defects(V(Ni1),Niy,except V(Ni2)) and substitution defects(Al(Ni1),Al(Ni2),Alv) exhibit a positive correlation to aluminum in stage I,the positive trend becomes to negative correlation or smooth during stage Ⅱ.For Ni3 Al phase,anti-structured defects(Al(Ni),Ni(Al)) and substitution defects(V(Ni),V(Al)) have a positive correlation to aluminum in stage Ⅱ,but Ni(Al) goes down since stage Ⅲ and lasts to stage Ⅳ.V(Ni) and V(Al) fluctuate when Ni3Al precipitates prior,but go down drastically in stageⅣ.Precipitate type conversion of single Ni3V/dual(Ni3V+Ni3Al) affects Ni3V defects,while dual(Ni3V+Ni3Al)/single Ni3 Al has little effect on Ni3Al defects.Precipitate order swap occurred in the dual phase region affects on Ni3Al defects but not on Ni3V.
文摘Pore structures in shales are a main factor affecting the storage capacity and production performance of shale gas reservoirs.Taking Longmaxi Shales in the Jiaoshiba area of the Sichuan Basin as a study object,we systematically study the microscopic pore structures of shales by using Argon-ion polishing Scanning Electron Microscope(SEM),high-pressure mercury injection and low-temperature nitrogen adsorption and desorption experiments.The study results show that:the Longmaxi Shale in this area are dominated by nano-scale pores which can be classified into organic pores,inorganic pores(intergranular pores,intragranular pores,inter-crystalline pores and dissolution pores),microfractures(intragranular structure fractures,interlayer sliding fractures,diagenetic shrinkage joints and abnormal-pressure fractures from organic evolution),among which organic pores and clay mineral pores are predominant and organic pores are the most common;a TOC value shows an obvious positive correlation with the content of organic pores,which account for up to 50%in the lower-quality shales with a TOC of over 2%where they are most developed;microscopic pore structures are very complex and open,with pores being mainly in cylinder shape with two ends open,or in parallel tabular shape with four sides open and 2–30 nm in diameter,being mostly medium pores.On this basis,factors affecting the micropore structures of shales in this area are studied.It is concluded that organic matter abundance and thermal maturity are the major factors controlling the microscopic pore structures of shales,while the effects of clay mineral content are relatively insignificant.

文摘Although many studies based on naturally deformed samples have been carried out to investigate the pore-crack characteristics of shales,studies based on high temperature(T)and high pressure(P)deformation experiments,which can exclude sample heterogeneity factors,simulate deep T-P conditions,and generate a continuous deformation sequence,are still rare.In this study,shales with different deformation levels are generated by triaxial compression experiments,and methods including scanning electron microscopy,mercury injection,and gas sorption are utilized to characterize their influence factors and pore-crack characteristics.Results indicate that T is the primary factor influencing shale deformation when P is low,while P is dominant under high P conditions.At T<90℃ and P<60 MPa,shales undergo brittle deformation and their macropores decrease due to the compaction of primary pores,while mesopores increase because of the interconnection of micropores.At 90℃<T<200℃ and 60 MPa<P<110 MPa,shales experience brittle-ductile transitional deformation,and their macro-and micropores increase because of the extension of open cracks and the plastic deformation of clay flakes respectively,while mesopores decrease dramatically.At T>200℃ and P>110 MPa,shales are subjected to ductile deformation,and their micro-and mesopores drop significantly due to the intense compaction in the matrix while macropores continuously increase with crack expansion.The permeability of shale increases with the degree of deformation and ductile material contents are predicted to be a key factor determining whether open microcracks can be preserved after ductile deformation.To account for these experimental results,an ideal model of micro pore-crack system evolution in deformed shales is further proposed,which can provide guidance for the exploration of shale gas resources in the deep or structurally complex zones.

文摘Understanding the variations in microscopic pore-fracture structures(MPFS) during coal creep under pore pressure and stress coupling is crucial for coal mining and effective gas treatment. In this manuscript, a triaxial creep test on deep coal at various pore pressures using a test system that combines in-situ mechanical loading with real-time nuclear magnetic resonance(NMR) detection was conducted.Full-scale quantitative characterization, online real-time detection, and visualization of MPFS during coal creep influenced by pore pressure and stress coupling were performed using NMR and NMR imaging(NMRI) techniques. The results revealed that seepage pores and microfractures(SPM) undergo the most significant changes during coal creep, with creep failure gradually expanding from dense primary pore fractures. Pore pressure presence promotes MPFS development primarily by inhibiting SPM compression and encouraging adsorption pores(AP) to evolve into SPM. Coal enters the accelerated creep stage earlier at lower stress levels, resulting in more pronounced creep deformation. The connection between the micro and macro values was established, demonstrating that increased porosity at different pore pressures leads to a negative exponential decay of the viscosity coefficient. The Newton dashpot in the ideal viscoplastic body and the Burgers model was improved using NMR experimental results, and a creep model that considers pore pressure and stress coupling using variable-order fractional operators was developed. The model’s reasonableness was confirmed using creep experimental data. The damagestate adjustment factors ω and β were identified through a parameter sensitivity analysis to characterize the effect of pore pressure and stress coupling on the creep damage characteristics(size and degree of difficulty) of coal.

文摘The symmetry of the target system plays a decisive role in the polarization of high harmonic generation(HHG).Molecules breaking the isotropic symmetry can be utilized to manipulate HHG polarization,but it has long been believed that prealignment is necessary to manifest the microscopic molecular structural effect within the macroscopic ensemble.In this work,we show that the molecular structural effect can be exploited in nonaligned molecular ensembles with appropriate 2-dimensional driving fields,despite the ensembles exhibiting isotropic macroscopic symmetry.The feasibility of this scheme is comprehensively elaborated with a multiscale theory from the perspective of symmetry breaking and is experimentally validated employing bichromatic counterrotating circularly polarized driving fields as an example.By varying the intensity ratio of the bichromatic components,substantially chiral high harmonics are generated from nonaligned molecules associated with the highest HHG efficiency,where,by contrast,the spectral chirality is nearly zero from the reference atom.Remarkably,we observe a simultaneous enhancement of both the chirality and yield of the harmonics from CO_(2),overcoming a commonly observed trade-off of the HHG efficiency for higher spectral chirality.Our findings hold the potential for a straightforward and robust pathway toward attosecond light sources with high brightness and large ellipticity.

文摘In order to effectively utilize the high reactivity coke, the gasification characteristics of high and low reactivity cokes were investigated at 1100 ℃. Low reactivity coke A and high reactivity coke B were chosen and charged into the reaction tube in two methods. The results indicated that the mass loss ratio of high reactivity coke in mixed cokes was more significant than that of single high reactivity coke in the middle stage of reaction. Nevertheless, the mass loss ratio of low reactivity coke in mixed cokes was less than that of single low reactivity coke. It was mainly attributed to gas diffusion and internal reaction of coke. When high and low reactivity cokes were mixed, the practical average mass loss ratio was nearly the same as the weighted average. The microscopic structures of coke indicated that with the increase of reaction time, the external and internal layers of low reactivity coke reacted more uniformly with CO2, whereas the reaction degree of external layer of high reactivity coke was obviously higher.

文摘Molecular dynamics(MD) simulations were performed to investigate the glass forming ability(GFA) and microscopic structural properties of liquid Cu-Zr alloys.Based on the analysis of composition dependences of the reduced glass transition temperatures and the excess volume,we found that the Cu-Zr glasses have the largest GFA at Cu65Zr35 composition.To get more detailed information of local structure,we calculated the pair correlation functions,partial pair correlation functions,the excess entropy,chemical order parameter,coordination number,and Voronoi index of Cu-Zr liquids.We found that there exists an obvious and close relationship among the GFA,the excess entropy calculated using the total pair correlation functions,chemical order parameters,and some Cu centered cluster with Voronoi index <0,2,8,1> and Zr centered cluster with Voronoi index <0,3,6,4>,which all have nonlinear dependences on Cu/Zr concentration and have extreme values at liquid Cu65Zr35 composition.
