However, it remains unclear how the executive brain regions will act when two different stimulus onset asynchrony （SOA） are used in visual search. In this work, event-related fMRI was used to investigate neural mechanisms on the functions of SOA in endogenous and exogenous orienting. The results showed that in the endogenous orienting, long SOA versus short SOA resulted in widespread cortical activation mainly including right medial frontal gyrus and bilateral middle frontal gyri. Conversely, in exogenous orienting, long SOA compared to short SOA resulted in only activations in bilateral middle frontal gyri. These findings indicated that these two spatial orienting involved different brain areas and neural mechanisms.展开更多

Each has yielded important findings, but controversy remains concerning whether they share any neurocognitive processes. These conflicting findings may originate from two issues： （1） at the cognitive level, attentional orienting and response inhibition are typically studied in isolation; and （2） at the technological level, a single neuroimaging method is typically used to study these processes. This article reviews recent achievements in both spatial and temporal neuroimaging, emphasizing the relationship between attentional orienting and response inhibition. We suggest that coordinated engagement, both top-down and bottom-up, serves as a common neural mechanism underlying these two cognitive processes. In addition, the right ventrolateral prefrontal cortex may play a major role in their harmonious operation.展开更多

文摘Determining the orientation of in-situ stresses is crucial for various geoscience and engineering appli-cations.Conventional methods for estimating these stress orientations often depend on focal mechanism solutions(FMSs)derived from earthquake data and formation micro-imager(FMI)data from well logs.However,these techniques can be costly,depth-inaccurate,and may lack spatial coverage.To address this issue,we introduce the use of three-dimensional(3D)seismic data(active sources)as a lateral constraint to approximate the 3D stress orientation field.Recognizing that both stress and fracture patterns are closely related to seismic velocity anisotropy,we derive the orientation of azimuthal anisotropy from multi-azimuth 3D seismic data to compensate for the lack of spatial stress orientation information.We apply our proposed workflow to a case study in the Weiyuan area of the Sichuan Basin,China,a region targeted for shale gas production.By integrating diverse datasets,including 3D seismic,earthquakes,and well logs,we develop a comprehensive 3D model of in-situ stress(orientations and magnitudes).Our results demonstrate that the estimated anisotropy orientations from 3D seismic data are consistent with the direction of maximum horizontal principal stress(SHmax)obtained from FMIs.We analyzed 12 earthquakes(magnitude>3)recorded between 2016 and 2020 for their FMSs and compressional axis(P-axis)orientations.The derived SHmax direction from our 3D stress model is 110°ES(East-South),which shows excellent agreement with the FMSs(within 3.96°).This close alignment validates the reliability and precision of our integrated method for predicting 3D SHmax orientations.
文摘Grain-oriented silicon steels were prepared at different heating rates during high temperature annealing,in which the evolution of magnetic properties,grain orientations and precipitates were studied.To illustrate the Zener factor,the diameter and number density of precipitates of interrupted testing samples were statistically calculated.The effect of precipitate ripening on the Goss texture and magnetic property was investigated.Data indicated that the trend of Zener factor was similar under different heating rates,first increasing and then decreasing,and that the precipitate maturing was greatly inhibited as the heating rate increased.Secondary recrystallization was developed at the temperature of 1010℃when a heating rate of 5℃/h was used,resulting in Goss,Brass and{110}<227>oriented grains growing abnormally and a magnetic induction intensity of 1.90T.Furthermore,increasing the heating rate to 20℃/h would inhibit the development of undesirable oriented grains and obtain a sharp Goss texture.However,when the heating rate was extremely fast,such as 40℃/h,poor secondary recrystallization was developed with many island grains,corresponding to a decrease in magnetic induction intensity to 1.87 T.At a suitable heating rate of 20℃/h,the sharpest Goss texture and the highest magnetic induction of 1.94 T with an onset secondary recrystallization temperature of 1020℃were found among the experimental variables in this study.The heating rate affected the initial temperature of secondary recrystallization by controlling the maturation of precipitates,leading to the deviation and dispersion of Goss texture,thereby reducing the magnetic properties.
文摘Oriented graphene aerogels have limited applica-tions because the flexibility of their graphene sheets and mi-crostructure give them a low skeleton strength,insufficient compression resilience,and poor flexibility.We report the preparation of novel aerogel materials with a much better per-formance.Using the driving force of graphene oxide(GO)self-assembly andπ-πinteractions,carbon nanotubes(CNTs)were attached to the GO sheets,and an oriented composite carbon skeleton was constructed using“hydro-plastic foam-ing”.The introduction of CNTs significantly increased the strength of the skeleton and gave the aerogel an excellent re-versible compressibility.The innovative use of cold pressing greatly improved the thermal conductivity and flexibility of the aerogel,providing new ideas for the development of high-performance aerogels.Tests show that the obtained graphene composite aerogel has a reversible compressive strain of over 90%and can withstand 500 compression cycles along the direc-tion of pore accumulation.It can endure more than 10000 bending cycles perpendicular to the direction of composite carbon layer stacking,and its in-plane thermal conductivity reaches 64.5 W·m^(-1)·K^(-1).When filled with phase change materials,the high porosity of the carbon skeleton enables the material to have a high phase change filling rate,and its phase change enthalpy is greater than 150 J/g.Thanks to the exceptional flexibility of the carbon skeleton,the macrostructure of phase change materials can be bent as needed to adapt to thermal management scenarios and conform to device shapes.This significantly enhances practical application compatibility,providing flexible support for temperature control and thermal management across diverse device forms.

文摘A redox-active monolayer on an optically transparent electrode constitutes a typical platform for spectroelectrochemical sensing.The necessity for its sophistication arises from the availability of multi-dimensional sensing signals.Simultaneous monitoring of the redox current and color change synchronized with the oxidation state change significantly enhances sen-sitivity and selectivity.This study aimed to elucidate the modification of an indium tin oxide(ITO)electrode with a viologen monolayer with an ordered orientation.Novel methods were developed to immobilize a viologen molecule bearing a car-boxyl group to form assembled monolayers through a condensation reaction using 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-car-bodiimide with N-hydroxy-succinimide(EDC/NHS).In the two methods of immobilization,one utilizes a two-step process to firstly form an aromatic siloxane base layer and subsequently attach the viologen derivative through an amide linkage by post-amidation.The other employs a direct ester linkage between the hydroxyl groups of the ITO surface and the car-boxyl group of the viologen derivative.The latter method was also applied to immobilize a ferrocenyl group at a very short distance from the ITO surface.Potential-modulated UV-visible transmission absorption spectral measurement techniques with oblique incidence of plane-polarized light were employed to determine the orientation of the longitudinal axis of the reduced form of the viologen.The frequency dependence data of the potential-modulated transmission absorption signals were utilized to analyze the electron transfer kinetics.The performance of the two viologen-modified electrodes was com-pared to that of an ITO modified by post-amidation to the most commonly used base layer prepared with 3-aminopropyl triethoxysilane.

文摘The estimation of orientation parameters and correction of lens distortion are crucial problems in the field of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles(UAVs)photogrammetry.In recent years,the utilization of UAVs for aerial photogrammetry has witnessed a surge in popularity.Typically,UAVs are equipped with low-cost non-metric cameras and a Position and Orientation System(POS).Unfortunately,the Interior Orientation Parameters(IOPs)of the non-metric cameras are not fixed.Whether the lens distortions are large or small,they effect the image coordinates accordingly.Additionally,Inertial Measurement Units(IMUs)often have observation errors.To address these challenges and improve parameter estimation for UAVs Light Detection and Ranging(LiDAR)and photogrammetry,this paper analyzes the accuracy of POS observations obtained from Global Navigation Satellite System Real Time Kinematic(GNSS-RTK)and IMU data.A method that incorporates additional known conditions for parameter estimation,a series of algorithms to simultaneously solve for IOPs,Exterior Orientation Parameters(EOPs),and camera lens distortion correction parameters are proposed.Extensive experiments demonstrate that the coordinates measured by GNSS-RTK can be directly used as linear EOPs;however,angular EOP measurements from IMUs exhibit relatively large errors compared to adjustment results and require correction during the adjustment process.The IOPs of non-metric cameras vary slightly between images but need to be treated as unknown parameters in high precision applications.Furthermore,it is found that the Ebner systematic error model is sensitive to the choice of the magnification parameter of the photographic baseline length in images,it should be set as less than or equal to one third of the photographic baseline to ensure stable solutions.
文摘After graduating from the China Academy of Arts(Department of Oil Painting)in Hangzhou in 1995,Yang Fudong(1971)moved to Shanghai to work as a graphic designer.Inspired by his daily job in Pudong,he started producing photographic series that closely resembled the advertising campaigns he worked on.Glossy images of stylish young people or dishevelled white collars in highly saturated colours,defined“intellectuals”in cryptic accompanying captions.Conversely,his body of work in black and white,almost entirely shot on 35mm film,portrays a suspended reality out of the historical time:a ghostly dimension akin to a drowsy vigil,a uchronia,an“estranged paradise”-to borrow the title of his earliest film set in Hangzhou.But it is Shanghai’s elusiveness and material relationship with the past that has contributed the most to form Yang’s trademark imagery and aesthetic.What he conjures up in his still and moving images,is a dimension with a distinctive oneiric quality,an“in-between”universe where all the circumstances are justified and have an inner logic,just like in dreams,or just like in the China of his childhood.The research of Yang Fudong is somewhat unique in the universe of contemporary Chinese art and sets him apart from a plethora of artists that have used the video in a much more“didactic”and quotational way.I will illustrate some specific aspects of his black and white body of work,trying to show how a certain self-orientalist trait can be interpreted as strategy to regain narrative agency and bring to the surface a series of removed instances:the main of which being,in my opinion,the fate of Shanghai’s(perhaps of China's Mainland in its ungraspable entirety?)modernity.

文摘Lead zirconate titanate(PbZr_(x)Ti_(1-x)O_(3),PZT)ferroelectric films possess remarkable characteristics such as high residual polarization,high dielectric constant,and high piezoelectric coefficient and have great application prospects in modern electronics,communications,medical care,and military fields.At present,the microstructure changes of PZT ferroelectric thin films have a significant impact on their electrical properties.Therefore,this work summarizes the influences of geometric structure(thickness,porosity),composition structure(Zr/Ti ratio,doping),and grain structure(grain size,grain boundaries,orientation)on the electrical properties of PZT ferroelectric thin films.The results show that the changes in thickness and porosity have a significant impact on the electrical properties of PZT ferroelectric films.Especially,the actual application scenarios and preparation processes determine the required geometric dimensions and structures of PZT ferroelectric films.The Zr/Ti ratio and doping mainly affect the electrical properties by influencing the phase composition of PZT ferroelectric films.The changes in grain size,boundary structure,and orientation dependence mainly have a certain degree of influence on the domain response and domain switching behavior of PZT ferroelectric thin films.In conclusion,different structures have different influence effects on the dielectric,ferroelectric,and piezoelectric properties of PZT ferroelectric films.The way the tiny structure affects how PZT thin films work was shown,helping to guide the design of ferroelectric thin film devices.In order to further study and apply piezoelectric ceramic devices,it is crucial to have an in-depth understanding of the relationship between the structure and performance of piezoelectric ceramic devices.

文摘Most image-based object detection methods employ horizontal bounding boxes(HBBs)to capture objects in tunnel images.However,these bounding boxes often fail to effectively enclose objects oriented in arbitrary directions,resulting in reduced accuracy and suboptimal detection performance.Moreover,HBBs cannot provide directional information for rotated objects.This study proposes a rotated detection method for identifying apparent defects in shield tunnels.Specifically,the oriented region-convolutional neural network(oriented R-CNN)is utilized to detect rotated objects in tunnel images.To enhance feature extraction,a novel hybrid backbone combining CNN-based networks with Swin Transformers is proposed.A feature fusion strategy is employed to integrate features extracted from both networks.Additionally,a neck network based on the bidirectional-feature pyramid network(Bi-FPN)is designed to combine multi-scale object features.The bolt hole dataset is curated to evaluate the efficacyof the proposed method.In addition,a dedicated pre-processing approach is developed for large-sized images to accommodate the rotated,dense,and small-scale characteristics of objects in tunnel images.Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method achieves a more than 4%improvement in mAP_(50-95)compared to other rotated detectors and a 6.6%-12.7%improvement over mainstream horizontal detectors.Furthermore,the proposed method outperforms mainstream methods by 6.5%-14.7%in detecting leakage bolt holes,underscoring its significant engineering applicability.

文摘Inhibiting dendrites formation and side-reactions is a critical challenge for practical application of aqueous Zn-ion batteries(AZIBs).Electrolyte additives offer an effective solution to address this problem.Inspired by using green corrosion inhibitor for metals,we introduce caffeine,extracted from tea-leaf,as an additive to achieve stable AZIBs.Caffeine,with its N and O containing groups,strongly adsorbs on the Zn anode and Zn^(2+)ions.This featured adsorption induces the replacement of water molecules from electric double layer(EDL)and solvation shell,suppressing side-reactions such as corrosion and hydrogen evolution reaction(HER).Moreover,the selective adsorption and steric hindrance of caffeine promote Zn(002)-oriented deposition,resulting in uniform and compact zinc deposits at both low and high current density and areal capacity.Due to the significantly suppressed dendrites and corrosion,the Coulomb Efficiency(CE)reaches 99.24%after 800 cycles,and the Zn||MnO_(2)battery shows a specific capacity of 167.2 mAh g^(−1)with 81%capacity retention after 1000 cycles at 2 A g^(−1).
文摘This study investigated the political,economic,social,and cultural environment perceptions on international students that define their acculturation and health related quality of life.Participants were 117 international students from 32 countries attending a Chinese university(females=43%,mean age=21.17 years,SD=4.45 years).They reported on their acculturation to China and physical and psychological well-being.Results from t-tests and correlation analyses indicate political liberals had more positive attitudes toward China than the conservatives,and higher self-reported physical and psychological results.Higher scores on the“interdependence”dimension of self-construal,as well as the“extraversion”and“emotional stability”dimensions of personality traits,were associated with more positive views of China and better health outcomes.These findings are consistent with Berry’s framework for acculturation,which posits that individual-level variables are related to cultural adaptation,and that cultural adaptation is associated with improved physical and mental health.International student offices at host universities should implement comprehensive support programs,including language assistance,cultural orientation,and social integration initiatives to effectively enhance the health related quality of life of international students.
