Currently, modifying shift point velocity value or throttle by throttle change rate is one of common methods, but the results are not so satisfactory in some working condition such as uphill. The reason is that these methods merely consider throttle change rate which is not enough for a car driving in driver-vehicle-road environment system. So a novel fuzzy control modification strategy is proposed to avoid or reduce those abnormal shift actions. It can adjust shifting rule by the change rate of throttle, current gear position and road environment information, while different gear position and driving environment get corresponding modification value. In order to compare the results of shifting actions, fuel consumption and braking distance, emergent braking in level road and extra-urban driving cycle（EUDC） working conditions with fuzzy shifting schedule modification strategy are simulated digitally. Furthermore, a hardware-in-the-loop simulation platform is introduced to verify its effect in slope road condition according to the ON/OFF numbers of solenoid valve in hydraulic system. The simulation results show that the problem of unexpected shift in those working conditions may be resolved by fuzzy modification strategy. At last, it is concluded that although there is some slight decline in power performance in uphill situation, this fuzzy modification strategy could correctly identify slope of road, decrease braking distance, improve vehicle comfort and fuel economy effectively and prolong the life of clutch system. So, this fuzzy logic shifting strategy provides important references for vehicle intelligent shifting schedule.展开更多

The carbonization of 2D MOF can increase the activity of the catalyst but cannot solve the metal leaching problem. The further acid treatment of carbonization products can further improve the catalytic activity and decrease the metal ion leaching. The in-situ growth of2D MOF on graphene oxide(GO) support with subsequent carbonization and acid treatment offers the best performance in PDS activation for organic pollutant removal with low metal ion leaching. Compared with other PDS systems, the Ni-Fe-C-acid/GO system displays much lower catalyst and PDS dosages for p-chloroaniline degradation. This study presents new insights in the modification strategies of 2D MOFbased catalysts in PDS activation.展开更多

文摘The severe shuttle effect problem of soluble polysulfides greatly hinders the development of long-life lithium-sulfur(Li-S)batteries,which can be improved by separator modification.This study develops a bilayer separator based on an effective surface and structure dual modification strategy.This bilayer separator(named as TCNFs/SPNFs)is constructed by the integration of a carbon-based nanofiber layer(surface modification layer)with a polymer-based nanofiber layer(structure modification layer)through a facile electrospinning process.The excellent electrolyte wettability of the nanofibers accelerates lithium-ion migration,while the good electronic conductivity of the carbon layer facilitates fast electron conduction.The TiO_(2)and SiO_(2)nanoparticles embedded in the separator provide abundant active sites for immobilizing the polysulfides.Owing to these synergistic effects,this multi-functional separator helps inhibit the shuttling problem and thus enhances the active sulfur utilization.The as-prepared battery with the TCNFs/SPNFs separator delivers significantly enhanced the electrochemical performances,producing a low capacity decay rate of 0.061%per cycle at 1 C over 1000 cycles and an admirable rate capacity of 886.7 mAh g^(-1)at 2 C.Even with a high sulfur loading of 4.8 mg cm^(-2),a remarkable areal capacity of 6.0 mAh cm^(-2)is attained.This work is believed to provide a promising strategy to develop novel separators for high-performance Li-S batteries.

文摘With the acceleration of advanced industrialization and urbanization,the environment is deteriorating rapidly,and non-renewable energy resources are depleted.The gradual advent of potential clean energy storage technologies is particularly urgent.Electrochemical energy storage technologies have been widely used in multiple fields,especially supercapacitors and rechargeable batteries,as vital elements of storing renewable energy.In recent years,two-dimensional material MXene has shown great potential in energy and multiple application fields thanks to its excellent electrical properties,large specific surface area,and tunability.Based on the layered materials of MXene,researchers have successfully achieved the dual functions of energy storage and conversion by adjusting the surface terminals at the Fermi level.It is worth noting that compared with other two-dimensional materials,MXene has more active sites on the basal plane,showing excellent catalytic performance.In contrast,other two-dimensional materials have catalytic activity only at the edge sites.This article comprehensively overviews the synthesis process,structural characteristics,modification methods for MXene-based polymer materials,and their applications in electrochemical energy storage.It also briefly discusses the potential of MXene-polymer materials in electromagnetic shielding technology and sensors and looks forward to future research directions.

文摘Solar-driven photocatalytic overall water splitting(POWS)has emerged as a sustainable pathway for hydrogen production,yet faces intrinsic challenges in developing robust catalysts that balance efficiency,stability,and cost-effectiveness.Polymeric carbon nitride(PCN)represents as a promising metal-free photocatalyst for hydrogen production due to the merits of unique electronic structure and exceptional thermal stability.Nevertheless,limited by rapid charge recombination and insufficient oxidative capability,little success has been achieved on pristine PCN photocatalyst in POWS.In this context,recent advances have demonstrated multi-dimensional modification strategies for improving POWS performance.Based on the fundamental principles of photocatalysis,this review discusses the advantages and challenges of PCN-based photocatalysts in POWS systems.With critical evaluation on one-step excitation systems and Z-scheme two-step excitation systems,modification strategies including crystallinity engineering,supramolecular precursor design,cocatalyst modulation,and construction of PCN-based heterojunctions and homojunctions were highlighted by introducing representative advances in POWS application over the past five years.Future perspectives for PCN-based photocatalysts are proposed,aiming to provide new insights for the design of advanced photocatalytic system for efficient POWS.

文摘Lithium-sulfur batteries(LSBs)have undoubtedly become one of the most promising battery systems due to their high energy density and the cost-effectiveness of sulfur cathodes.However,challenges,such as the shuttle effect from soluble long-chain lithium polysulfides(LiPSs)and the low conductivity of active materials,hinder their commercialization.Under this circumstance,molybdenum sulfide(MoS_(2))has attracted widespread attention due to its unique physicochemical properties,particularly its capability to mitigate the shuttle effect in LSBs through electrostatic or chemical bonds.Nonetheless,the industrial application of MoS_(2)in LSBs is limited by the inertness of its basal surface and inadequate electron transfer properties.This review mainly introduces various modification strategies of MoS_(2)materials in LSBs and their effects on electrochemical and catalytic performance.Unlike previous reviews and related papers,detailed discussions were conducted on the specific mechanisms of each modification strategy,including(1)shape manipulation,(2)support engineering,(3)heterostructure engineering,(4)defect engineering,(5)interlayer engineering,(6)phase engineering,(7)strain engineering,(8)hybridization.Comprehensive conclusions and outlook on the development of MoS_(2)as an abundant electrocatalyst for LSBs are also discussed in the end.
文摘Heterogeneous photocatalysis,an advanced oxidation process,has garnered extensive attention in the field of environmental remediation because it involves the direct utilization of solar energy for the removal of numerous pollutants.However,the application of heterogeneous photocatalysis in environmental remediation has not achieved the expected consequences due to enormous challenges such as low photocatalytic efficiencies and high costs of heterogeneous photocatalysts in large-scale practical applications.Furthermore,pollutants in the natural environment,including water,air,and solid phases,are diverse and complex.Therefore,extensive efforts should be made to better understand and apply heterogeneous photocatalysis for environmental remediation.Herein,the fundamentals of heterogeneous photocatalysis for environmental remediation are introduced.Then,potential semiconductors and their modification strategies for environmental photocatalysis are systematically presented.Finally,conclusions and prospects are briefly summarized,and the direction for the future development of environmental photocatalysis is explored.This review may provide reference directions toward understanding,researching,and designing photocatalytic remediation systems for various environmental pollutants.

文摘This study reports several modification strategies to optimize and enhance the performance of twodimensional(2D) metal organic frameworks(MOFs)-derived catalysts in peroxydisulfate(PDS) activation.The raw 2D Ni-MOF and 2D Ni-Fe-MOF without modification show poor catalytic activities for PDS activation and high metal ion leaching. The carbonization of 2D MOF can increase the activity of the catalyst but cannot solve the metal leaching problem. The further acid treatment of carbonization products can further improve the catalytic activity and decrease the metal ion leaching. The in-situ growth of2D MOF on graphene oxide(GO) support with subsequent carbonization and acid treatment offers the best performance in PDS activation for organic pollutant removal with low metal ion leaching. Compared with other PDS systems, the Ni-Fe-C-acid/GO system displays much lower catalyst and PDS dosages for p-chloroaniline degradation. This study presents new insights in the modification strategies of 2D MOFbased catalysts in PDS activation.

文摘With the rapid development of new energy and the high proportion of new energy connected to the grid,energy storage has become the leading technology driving significant adjustments in the global energy landscape.Electrochemical energy storage,as the most popular and promising energy storage method,has received extensive attention.Currently,the most widely used energy storage method is metal-ion secondary batteries,whose performance mainly depends on the cathode material.Prussian blue analogues(PBAs)have a unique open framework structures that allow quick and reversible insertion/extraction of metal ions such as Na^(+),K^(+),Zn^(2+),Li^(+)etc.,thus attracting widespread attention.The advantages of simple synthesis process,abundant resources,and low cost also distinguish it from its counterparts.Unfortunately,the crystal water and structural defects in the PBAs lattice that is generated during the synthesis process,as well as the low Na content,significantly affect their electrochemical performance.This paper focuses on PBAs’synthesis methods,crystal structure,modification strategies,and their potential applications as cathode materials for various metal ion secondary batteries and looks forward to their future development direction.

文摘Aqueous zincion batteries are highly favored for grid-level energy storage owing to their low cost and high safety,but their practical application is limited by slow ion migration.To address this,a strategy has been developed to create a cation-accelerating electric field on the surface of the cathode to achieve ultrafast Zn^(2+)diffusion kinetics.By employing electrodeposition to coat MoS_(2)on the surface of BaV_(6)O_(16)·3H_(2)O nanowires,the directional builtin electric field generated at the heterointerface acts as a cation accelerator,continuously accelerating Zn^(2+)diffusion into the active material.The optimized Zn^(2+)diffusion coefficient in CC@BaV-V_(6)O_(16)·3H_(2)@MoS_(2)(7.5×10^(8)cm^(2)s^(-1)) surpasses that of most reported V-based cathodes.Simultaneously,MoS_(2)serving as a cathodic armor extends the cycling life of the Zn-CC@BaV_(6)O_(16)·3H_(2)@MoS_(2)full batteries to over 10000 cycles.This work provides valuable insights into optimizing ion diffusion kinetics for high-performance energy storage devices.

文摘Creating economical and effective catalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction(OER)is essential for enhancing the efficiency of electrochemical water splitting.In this study,we designed a multicomponent heterogeneous interfacial catalyst,Ni(OH)_(2)/NiCo(OH)_(6)@FeOOH,using a simple two-step method.In situ Raman and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS)measurements revealed the dynamic phase change occurring during the OER process.The FeOOH layer on Ni(OH)_(2)/NiCo(OH)_(6)altered the electronic structure,facilitating the emergence of the active NiOOH phase and markedly improving OER kinetics.Significantly,the Ni(OH)_(2)/NiCo(OH)_(6)@FeOOH 2:1 catalyst demonstrated a current density of 10 mA·cm^(-2)at an overpotential of merely 208 mV,accompanied by a Tafel slope of 37.72 mV·dec-1,exhibiting exceptional stability over a duration of 100 h at 10 mA·cm^(-2).Furthermore,the Ni(OH)_(2)/NiCo(OH)_(6)@FeOOH 2:1(+)lIPt/C(-)electrolyzer cell showcased a remarkably low driving voltage of 1.52 V to achieve 10 mA·cm^(-2),while also displaying impressive durability under alkaline conditions for over100 h.This work enhances our understanding of the interfacial structure-activity relationship in composite catalysts,aiding the design of efficient catalysts with rapid kinetics.
