Cells can actively probe their mechanical micro-environment and respond to the ex- ternal stimuli through cell adhesion. Cells need to move to the targeting place to perform function via cell migration. For adherent cells, cell migration is mediated by cell-matrix adhesion and cell-cell adhesion. Experimental approaches, especially at early stage of investigation, are indispensable to studies of cell mechanics when even qualitative behaviors of cell as well as fundamental factors in cell behaviors are unclear. Currently, there is increasingly accumulation of ex- perimental data of measurement, thus a quantitative formula- tion of cell behaviors and the relationship among these fun- damental factors are highly needed. This quantitative under- standing should be crucial to tissue engineering and biomed- ical engineering when people want to accurately regulate or control cell behaviors from single cell level to tissue level. In this review, we will elaborate recent advances in the ex- perimental and theoretical studies on cell adhesion and mi- gration, with particular focuses laid on recent advances in experimental techniques and theoretical modeling, through which challenging problems in the cell mechanics are sug- gested.展开更多

Previous studies cannot realize 3D measurement of microseeping hydrocarbons from reservoirs to the surface, which made it difficult to understand the features and pathways of deep hydrocarbon microseepages. Understanding the processes of hydrocarbon microseepages will contribute to the acceptance and effectiveness of surface geochemistry. Based on a simplified geological model of hydrocarbon microseepages, including hydrocarbon reservoir, direct caprock, overlying strata and Quaternary sediments, this work established a 3D experimental system to simulate the mechanisms and processes of deep hydrocarbon microseepes extending to the surface. The dispersive halos of microseeping hydrocarbons in the subsurface were adequately described by using this 3D experimental system. Results indicate that different migration patterns of hydrocarbons above the point gas source within the simulated caprock and overlying strata can be reflected by the ratio of i-butane to n-butane （i-C4/n-C4）, which follow diffusion and infiltration （buoyancy） mechanisms. This is not the case for vertical measurement lines far from the point gas source. A vertical gas flow in the form of a plume was found during hydrocarbon microseepage. For sampling methods, the high-density grid sampling is favorable for delineating prospecting targets. Hydrocarbon infiltration or buoyancy flow occurs in the zones of infiltration clusters, coupling with a diffusion mechanism at the top of the water table and forming surface geochemical anomalies. These results are significant in understanding hydrocarbon microseepage and interpreting SGE data.展开更多

Among the multiple cell signaling pathways involved in cell migration, those elicited by transforming growth factorβ（TGF-β） have attracted tremendous attention. The TGF-βpolypeptide cytokines include four isoforms：TGF-β1, TGF-β2, TGF-β3, and TGF-β4, which are secreted mainly from cells of white blood cell lineage, such as macrophages, T cells and platelets.展开更多

Coupling this equati...A new theoretical model is formulated to describe internal movement mechanisms of the sand ridges and sand waves based on the momentum equation of a solid-liquid two-phase flow under a shear flow. Coupling this equation with two-dimensional shallow water equations and wave reflection-diffraction equation of mild slope, a two-dimensional coupling model is established and a validation is carried out by observed hydrogeology, tides,waves and sediment. The numerical results are compared with available observations. Satisfactory agreements are achieved. This coupling model is then applied to the Dongfang 1-1 Gas Field area to quantitatively predict the movement and evolution of submarine sand ridges and sand waves. As a result, it is found that the sand ridges and sand waves movement distance increases year by year, but the development trend is stable.展开更多

The results are as follows：（1） Prior to both earthquakes, gravity variation exhibited similar characteristics as those observed before both the Tangshan and Wenchuan earthquakes, in which typical precursor anomalies were positive gravity variation near the epicenter and the occurrence of a high-gravity-gradient zone across the epicenter prior to the earthquake.（2） A relatively accurate prediction of the occurrence locations of the two earthquakes was made by the Gravity Network Center of China（GNCC） based on these precursor anomalies. In the gravity study report on the 2014 earthquake trends submitted at the end of 2013, the Daofu-Shimian section at the junction of the Xianshuihe and Longmenshan fault zones was noted as an earthquake-risk region with a predicted magnitude of 6.5, which covered the epicenter of the Kangding Ms6.3 earthquake. In another report on earthquake trends in southwestern China submitted in mid-2014, the Lianfeng, Zhaotong fault zone was also classified as an earthquake-risk region with a magnitude of 6.0, and the central area of this region basically overlapped with the epicenter of the Ludian Ms6.5 earthquake.（3） The gravity variation characteristics are reasonably consistent with crustal movements, and deep material migration is likely the primary cause of gravity variation.展开更多

文摘Based on the geochemical parameters and analytical data,the heat conservation equation,mass balance law,Rayleigh fractionation model and other methods were used to quantify the in-situ yield and external flux of crust-derived helium,and the initial He concentration and thermal driving mechanism of mantle-derived helium,in the Ledong Diapir area,the Yinggehai Basin,in order to understand the genetic source,migration and accumulation mechanisms of helium under deep thermal fluid activities.The average content of mantle-derived He is only 0.0014%,the ^(3)He/^(4)He value is(0.002–2.190)×10^(−6),and the R/Ra value ranges from 0.01 to 1.52,indicating the contribution of mantle-derived He is 0.09%–19.84%,while the proportion of crust-derived helium can reach over 80%.Quantitative analysis indicates that the crust-derived helium is dominated by external input,followed by in-situ production,in the Ledong diapir area.The crust-derived helium exhibits an in-situ 4 He yield rate of(7.66–7.95)×10^(−13)cm^(3)/(a·g),an in-situ 4 He yield of(4.10–4.25)×10^(−4)cm^(3)/g,and an external 4 He influx of(5.84–9.06)×10^(−2)cm^(3)/g.These results may be related to atmospheric recharge into formation fluid and deep rock-water interactions.The ratio of initial mole volume of 3 He to enthalpy(W)is(0.004–0.018)×10^(−11) cm^(3)/J,and the heat contribution from the deep mantle(X_(M))accounts for 7.63%–36.18%,indicating that deep hot fluid activities drive the migration of mantle-derived 3 He.The primary helium migration depends on advection,while the secondary migration is controlled by hydrothermal degassing and gas-liquid separation.From deep to shallow layers,the CO_(2/3) He value rises from 1.34×10^(9)to 486×10^(9),indicating large amount of CO_(2)has escaped.Under the influence of deep thermal fluid,helium migration and accumulation mechanisms include:deep heat driven diffusion,advection release,vertical hydrothermal degassing,shallow lateral migration,accumulation in traps far from faults,partial pressure balance and sealing capability.

文摘Cell adhesion and migration are basic physiolog- ical processes in living organisms. Cells can actively probe their mechanical micro-environment and respond to the ex- ternal stimuli through cell adhesion. Cells need to move to the targeting place to perform function via cell migration. For adherent cells, cell migration is mediated by cell-matrix adhesion and cell-cell adhesion. Experimental approaches, especially at early stage of investigation, are indispensable to studies of cell mechanics when even qualitative behaviors of cell as well as fundamental factors in cell behaviors are unclear. Currently, there is increasingly accumulation of ex- perimental data of measurement, thus a quantitative formula- tion of cell behaviors and the relationship among these fun- damental factors are highly needed. This quantitative under- standing should be crucial to tissue engineering and biomed- ical engineering when people want to accurately regulate or control cell behaviors from single cell level to tissue level. In this review, we will elaborate recent advances in the ex- perimental and theoretical studies on cell adhesion and mi- gration, with particular focuses laid on recent advances in experimental techniques and theoretical modeling, through which challenging problems in the cell mechanics are sug- gested.

文摘In response to the rise of the energy storage industries such as new energy vehicles and the wide application of lithium in various fields worldwide,the global demand for lithium resources has been in explosive growth.In order to further comprehensively understand the global supply and demand pattern,development and utilization status,genesis of ore deposits and other characteristics of lithium resources,based on the achievements of many researchers at home and abroad,this paper systematically summarized the lithium supply and demand situation,resource endowment,deposit classification and distribution,typical geological characteristics,metallogenic factors and metallogenic regularity of terrestrial brine-type lithium deposits which are the main types of development and utilization all over the world.The review shows that brine-type lithium resource and(or)reserves in the plateau salt lakes are huge and play an important role.In addition,the mineralization potential of the underground brine-type lithium deposit is broad worldwide.The potential resources of underground brines are enormous,and the geothermal spring water type is also worthy of attention.Brine lithium deposits are mainly controlled by the subduction and collision of regional plate tectonics,arid climate and provenance conditions.Strengthening of the scientific research on underground brines in the future is expected to provide another significant support for the global demand for lithium resources.

文摘The operational lifespan of nuclear graphite is significantly affected by irradiation creep,yet the microstructural mechanism underlying this creep phenomenon remains unclear.Some theories attempt to link microstructural evolution with creep behavior,but the rapid migration rate of defects under irradiation and loading makes it difficult to capture the specific evolution process experimentally,resulting in a lack of direct structural evidence.Therefore,in this study,molecular dynamics simulations are employed to investigate the irradiation behavior and microstructural migration under external loading.The aim is to provide microstructural evidence for theories such as the dislocation pinning-unpinning and crystal yielding.The results demonstrate that high tensile loads can increase the potential energy and reduce threshold displacement energy of graphite crystals.Consequently,displacement damage probability and creep rate increase,which is not considered in previous theories.Meanwhile,different creep mechanisms are observed at different damage states and applied loads.In low-dose damage states dominated by interstitials and vacancies,the pinning-unpinning process at basal plane may be caused by a defect diffusion mode.Under high stress levels,direct breaking of pinning structures occurs,leading to rapid migration of basal planes,demonstrating the microstructural evolution process of irradiated crystal yielding and plastic flow.In high-dose damage states characterized significantly by amorphous components,short-range atomic diffusion can become the dominant creep mechanism,and diffusion along the c-axis of graphite crystals is no longer constrained.These findings provide a crucial reference for understanding the irradiation and creep behavior of nuclear graphite in reactors.
文摘Hydrogen peroxide(H_(2)O_(2)),as an essential and green chemical,is extensively used in energy and environmental applications.However,the production of H_(2)O_(2)primarily relies on the anthraquinone method,which is an energy-intensive method involving multi-step reactions,producing harmful by-product wastes.Solar-driven H_(2)O_(2)production,an alternative route for H_(2)O_(2)generation,is a green and sustainable technology since it only utilizes water and oxygen as feedstock.However,the rapid recombination of charge carriers as well as insufficient redox capability limit the photocatalytic H_(2)O_(2)production performance.Constructing step-scheme(S-scheme)heterojunction photocatalysts has been regarded as an effective strategy to address these drawbacks because it not only achieves spatially separated charge carriers,but also preserves redox capability of the photocatalytic system.This paper covers the recent advances of S-scheme heterojunction photocatalysts for H_(2)O_(2)production in terms of basic principles,characterization techniques,and preparation strategies.Moreover,the mechanism and advantages of S-scheme heterojunction for photocatalytic H_(2)O_(2)generation are systematically discussed.The recent S-scheme heterojunction designs,including inorganic-organic heterojunction,inorganic-inorganic heterojunction,and organic-organic heterojunction,are summarized.Lastly,the challenges and research directions of S-scheme photocatalysts for H_(2)O_(2)generation are presented.

文摘The formation mechanisms and processes of geochemical anomalies used as proxies in surface geochemistry exploration （SGE） have not been well understood. Previous studies cannot realize 3D measurement of microseeping hydrocarbons from reservoirs to the surface, which made it difficult to understand the features and pathways of deep hydrocarbon microseepages. Understanding the processes of hydrocarbon microseepages will contribute to the acceptance and effectiveness of surface geochemistry. Based on a simplified geological model of hydrocarbon microseepages, including hydrocarbon reservoir, direct caprock, overlying strata and Quaternary sediments, this work established a 3D experimental system to simulate the mechanisms and processes of deep hydrocarbon microseepes extending to the surface. The dispersive halos of microseeping hydrocarbons in the subsurface were adequately described by using this 3D experimental system. Results indicate that different migration patterns of hydrocarbons above the point gas source within the simulated caprock and overlying strata can be reflected by the ratio of i-butane to n-butane （i-C4/n-C4）, which follow diffusion and infiltration （buoyancy） mechanisms. This is not the case for vertical measurement lines far from the point gas source. A vertical gas flow in the form of a plume was found during hydrocarbon microseepage. For sampling methods, the high-density grid sampling is favorable for delineating prospecting targets. Hydrocarbon infiltration or buoyancy flow occurs in the zones of infiltration clusters, coupling with a diffusion mechanism at the top of the water table and forming surface geochemical anomalies. These results are significant in understanding hydrocarbon microseepage and interpreting SGE data.
文摘Mechanisms on cancer cell migration and invasion have been major topics of cancer research and anti-cancer therapy development. Among the multiple cell signaling pathways involved in cell migration, those elicited by transforming growth factorβ（TGF-β） have attracted tremendous attention. The TGF-βpolypeptide cytokines include four isoforms：TGF-β1, TGF-β2, TGF-β3, and TGF-β4, which are secreted mainly from cells of white blood cell lineage, such as macrophages, T cells and platelets.

文摘A new theoretical model is formulated to describe internal movement mechanisms of the sand ridges and sand waves based on the momentum equation of a solid-liquid two-phase flow under a shear flow. Coupling this equation with two-dimensional shallow water equations and wave reflection-diffraction equation of mild slope, a two-dimensional coupling model is established and a validation is carried out by observed hydrogeology, tides,waves and sediment. The numerical results are compared with available observations. Satisfactory agreements are achieved. This coupling model is then applied to the Dongfang 1-1 Gas Field area to quantitatively predict the movement and evolution of submarine sand ridges and sand waves. As a result, it is found that the sand ridges and sand waves movement distance increases year by year, but the development trend is stable.

文摘Using mobile gravity data from the central area of Sichuan and Yunnan Provinces, the relationship between gravity variation and earthquakes was studied based on the Ludian Ms6.5 earthquake that occurred on August 3rd, 2014, and the Kangding Ms6.3 earthquake that occurred on November 22 nd, 2014; the mechanism of gravity variation was also explored. The results are as follows：（1） Prior to both earthquakes, gravity variation exhibited similar characteristics as those observed before both the Tangshan and Wenchuan earthquakes, in which typical precursor anomalies were positive gravity variation near the epicenter and the occurrence of a high-gravity-gradient zone across the epicenter prior to the earthquake.（2） A relatively accurate prediction of the occurrence locations of the two earthquakes was made by the Gravity Network Center of China（GNCC） based on these precursor anomalies. In the gravity study report on the 2014 earthquake trends submitted at the end of 2013, the Daofu-Shimian section at the junction of the Xianshuihe and Longmenshan fault zones was noted as an earthquake-risk region with a predicted magnitude of 6.5, which covered the epicenter of the Kangding Ms6.3 earthquake. In another report on earthquake trends in southwestern China submitted in mid-2014, the Lianfeng, Zhaotong fault zone was also classified as an earthquake-risk region with a magnitude of 6.0, and the central area of this region basically overlapped with the epicenter of the Ludian Ms6.5 earthquake.（3） The gravity variation characteristics are reasonably consistent with crustal movements, and deep material migration is likely the primary cause of gravity variation.

文摘Aqueous zinc ion batteries(AZIBs)are ideal candidates for large-scale battery storage,with a high theoretical specific capacity,ecological friendliness,and extremely low cost but are strongly hindered by zinc dendrite growth.Herein,Ni-Zn alloy is artificially constructed as a solid-electrolyte interface(SEI)for Zn anodes by electrodeposition and annealing.The Ni-Zn alloy layer acts as a dynamic shield at the electrode/electrolyte interface.Interestingly,the zinc atoms migrate out of the electrode body during zinc stripping while merging into the electrode body during the plating.In this way,the Ni-Zn alloy is able to guide the zinc deposition in the horizontal direction,thereby suppressing the formation of dendrite.Benefiting from those,the Ni-Zn alloy symmetric cell shows a greatly improved cycle life and is able to operate stably for 1,900 h at a current density of 0.5 mA·cm^(−2).The present study is a strategy for negative electrode protection of AZIBs.

文摘Lowering the operating temperature of solid oxide fuel cells(SOFCs)has extensively stimulated the development of new oxide ion conductors.Here,inspired by the structural commonalities of oxide ion conductors,the inability to accommodate oxygen vacancies in the rigid,isolated,3-fold tetrahedral rings of SrSi/GeO_(3)-based materials,and the considerable flexibility of BO_(n) polyhedra in terms of coordination number,rotation,deformation,and linkage,we report the first borate-base family of oxide ion conductors,(Gd/Y)_(1−x)Zn_(x)BO_(3−0.5x),through combined computational prediction and experimental verification.The oxygen vacancies in(Gd/Y)BO_(3)can be accommodated by forming B_(3)O_(8)units in isolated,3-fold,tetrahedral rings of B_(3)O_(9)and transported through a cooperative mechanism of oxygen exchange between the B_(3)O_(9)and B_(3)O_(8)units,which is assisted by the intermediate opening and extending of these units.This study opens a new scientific field of the borate system for designing and discovering oxide ion conductors.
