The equivalent connectivity index, relying on the meso-scale structure of porous material and the property of liquid, denotes the connectivity of pores in Representative Element Area （REA）. If the conductivity of the porous material is anisotropic, the equivalent connectivity index is a second order tensor. Based on the basic theories of continuous mechanics and tensor analysis, relationship between area porosity and volumetric porosity of porous materials is deduced. Then a generalized expression, describing the relation between effective stress coefficient tensor and equivalent connectivity tensor of pores, is proposed, and the expression can be applied to isotropic media and also to anisotropic materials. Furthermore, evolution of porosity and equivalent connectivity index of the pore are studied in the strain space, and the method to determine the corresponding functions in expressions above is proposed using genetic algorithm and genetic programming. Two applications show that the results obtained by the method in this paper perfectly agree with the test data. This paper provides an important theoretical support to the coupled hydro-mechanical research.展开更多

The evolution equation of ductile voids has the closed form, in which work-hardening, the change of surface energy of voids, rate-dependent, inertial effects are taken into account. The expressions of critical stresses for the growth and compaction of voids are directly obtained from the evolution equations of voids. Numerical analysis of the model indicates that the growth of voids is sensitive to the strain rates. The voids grow quickly as the increase of strain rates. It is also shown that the influence of the inertial effects on the void growth is great at high loading rates. It appears to resist the growth of voids. In addition, a dynamic collapse model of ductile voids is also proposed, which can be applied to study the problems of compaction in powder and other materials.展开更多

文摘The freeze-thaw(FT)behavior of porous materials(PMs)involves the coupling of the thermo-hydromechanical(THM)processes and is significantly influenced by the microstructure.However,modeling FT in unsaturated PMs remains an open issue,and the influence of microstructure is not yet fully understood.To address these challenges,we propose a THM model for FT in PMs that considers microstructure and variable air content.In this work,a non-equilibrium thermodynamic approach is proposed to capture ice formation/melting,the microstructure is accounted for utilizing micromechanics,and the FT processes in air-entrained PMs are formulated within the proposed THM model.This model incorporates variable air void characteristics,e.g.air content,spacing factor,specific surface area,and supercooled water-filled regimes,and distinguishes the roles of air voids between freezing and thawing.The FT behaviors,including deformation,ice formation/melting,spacing factor,and pore water pressure evolutions,are focused.Comparisons with experimental results,confirm the capability of the present model.The results demonstrate the effects of variable air voids on the FT behavior of air-entrained PMs.The findings reveal that assuming fixed air void characteristics can lead to underestimation of pore pressure and deformation,particularly at low air content.Additionally,air voids act as cryo-pumps during freezing and when the cooling temperature stabilizes.During thawing,air voids supply gas to the melting sites(i.e.“gas escape”),preventing further significant deformation reduction.These results can provide novel insights for understanding the frost damage of PMs.

文摘Physical mechanisms and influencing factors on the effective stress coefficient for rock/soil-like porous materials are investigated, based on which equivalent connectivity index is proposed. The equivalent connectivity index, relying on the meso-scale structure of porous material and the property of liquid, denotes the connectivity of pores in Representative Element Area （REA）. If the conductivity of the porous material is anisotropic, the equivalent connectivity index is a second order tensor. Based on the basic theories of continuous mechanics and tensor analysis, relationship between area porosity and volumetric porosity of porous materials is deduced. Then a generalized expression, describing the relation between effective stress coefficient tensor and equivalent connectivity tensor of pores, is proposed, and the expression can be applied to isotropic media and also to anisotropic materials. Furthermore, evolution of porosity and equivalent connectivity index of the pore are studied in the strain space, and the method to determine the corresponding functions in expressions above is proposed using genetic algorithm and genetic programming. Two applications show that the results obtained by the method in this paper perfectly agree with the test data. This paper provides an important theoretical support to the coupled hydro-mechanical research.

文摘Recently,increasing atte ntion has been paid on extending theπ-conjugation structures ofviologens(1,1’-disubstituted-4,4’-bipyridylium salts)by incorporating planar aromatic units into the bipyridinium backbones.Various viologen derivative s with extendedπ-conjugation structures have been synthesized,including the N-termini aromatic substituted viologens,the extendedπ-conjugated viologens(denoted as ECVs)as well as theπ-conjugated oligomeric viologens(denoted as COVs).These compounds typically exhibit interesting properties distinguished from those of an isolated viologen unit,which make them as new class of electron deficient supra-/molecular building blocks in supramolecular chemistry and materials science.In this review,we would like to highlight the recent advances of viologen derivatives with extendedπ-conjugation structures in versatile applications ranging from electrochromic and energy storage materials,the ECV/COV-based supramolecular self-assembly systems including the linear supramolecular polymers and 2D/3D supramolecular organic frameworks(SOFs),to the viologen-based covalent organic frameworks(COFs)/networks.We hope this review will serve as an in-time summary worthy of referring,more importantly,to provide inspiration in the rational design of novel molecules with unexplored properties and functions.

文摘^(129)Xe NMR has been proven to be a powerful tool to investigate the structure of porousmaterials. Xenon is a monatomic noble gas which could be used as a probe due to theextremely sensitive to its local environment. Optical pumping techniques for production ofhyperpolarized (HP) xenon have led to an increase of sensitivity up to orders of magnitudecompared with traditional ^(129)Xe NMR. This review summarizes the application of thistechnique in porous materials and heterogeneous catalysis in recent ten years, involving ofzeolites, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), catalytic process and kinetics.

文摘Trimodal hierarchical yolk-shell materials consisting of TS-1 core and mesoporous carbon shell （YS-TS- I@MC） was successfully synthesized by using TS-l@mesosilica as hard template, sucrose as carbon source and organic base tetrapropylammonium hydroxide （TPAOH） as silica etching agent. The resultant YS-TS-I@MC contains the micropores （0.51 nm） in TS-1 core, the mesopores （2.9 rim） in carbon shell as well as a void or a stack pore between TS-1 fragements （TS-1 intercrystal mesopores, -18.4 nm）. Under the rigorous etching conditions, the crystalline structure of TS-1 core was well retained. The YS-TS- I@MC served as a good support for palladium nano-particles （Pd NPs） or Rh（OH）x species, giving rise to efficient bifunctional catalysts for the tandem reactions including one-pot synthesis of propylene oxide or amides.

文摘In the present work, a dynamic damage model in ductile materials under the application of dynamic general stresses loading is presented. The evolution equation of ductile voids has the closed form, in which work-hardening, the change of surface energy of voids, rate-dependent, inertial effects are taken into account. The expressions of critical stresses for the growth and compaction of voids are directly obtained from the evolution equations of voids. Numerical analysis of the model indicates that the growth of voids is sensitive to the strain rates. The voids grow quickly as the increase of strain rates. It is also shown that the influence of the inertial effects on the void growth is great at high loading rates. It appears to resist the growth of voids. In addition, a dynamic collapse model of ductile voids is also proposed, which can be applied to study the problems of compaction in powder and other materials.

文摘In this paper, a kind of second-order two-scale （SOTS） computation is developed for conductive-radiative heat trans- fer problem in periodic porous materials. First of all, by the asymptotic expansion of the temperature field, the cell problem, homogenization problem, and second-order correctors are obtained successively. Then, the corresponding finite element al- gorithms are proposed. Finally, some numerical results are presented and compared with theoretical results. The numerical results of the proposed algorithm conform with those of the FE algorithm well, demonstrating the accuracy of the present method and its potential applications in thermal engineering of porous materials.
