文摘Calcium carboaluminate was successfully prepared by a simple and efficient one-step method,and the effects of temperature,time,raw material ratio,carbonate type and heavy CaCO_(3)particle size on the products were investigated in detail.The results show that increasing the temperature and extending the reaction time can enhance the yield and crystallisation degree of calcium carboaluminate.The proportion of Ca(OH)_(2),Al(OH)_(3)and CaCO_(3)is a pivotal factor in the synthesis of calcium carboaluminate.When the ratio of Ca(OH)_(2),Al(OH)_(3)and CaCO_(3)is 3:2:1,the diffraction peaks of calcium carboaluminate in the products are relatively sharp and strong.Furthermore,the purity and crystallinity of the synthesized calcium carboaluminate are higher when heavy CaCO_(3)with the particle size of 120 mesh is used as the carbonate raw material,in comparison to CO_(2),Na_(2)CO_(3)and light CaCO_(3).As results,a simple and efficient method for the synthesis of calcium carboaluminate is proposed,which will provide a solid experimental foundation and technical support for the industrial application of calcium carboaluminate in marine concrete.
文摘This study investigated the effects of xu-argument-based continuation writing on learners’processing of source texts.Seventy-five participants were randomly assigned to three conditions:(1)continuation writing,(2)summary writing,or(3)reading comprehension.Eye-tracking data were collected during reading,measuring early(first fixation duration,first pass duration)and late(go-past time,total fixation duration)eye movements.During writing,source-text rereading was tracked via fixation counts and durations.Results showed that task type did not affect initial lexical access,as first fixation duration showed no group differences.However,both production groups exhibited significantly longer first pass durations than the reading comprehension group.Late measures revealed a gradient pattern:the continuation writing group spent significantly longer gopast time and total fixation duration than the summary writing group,which exceeded the reading comprehension group.This indicates that continuation tasks promoted deeper cognitive engagement during reading.During writing,the continuation writing group spent more time rereading the source text with higher fixation counts than the summary writing group.These findings suggest that continuation writing triggers more intensive reader-text interaction during pre-writing and enhances comprehension-production coupling through sustained attention to input during writing.This study sheds light on the cognitive mechanisms underlying the theoretical and pedagogical value of xu-argument.

文摘Peroxymonosulfate(PMS)-based Fenton-like technologies have been increasingly employed in the upgrading of biomass,but they are commonly limited by the trade-off between conversion and selectivity due to the short lifetime of reactive oxygen species(ROS)and uncontrollable oxidation pathways.Herein,we show that single-atom Co supported on carbon nitride enables the high-valent-oxo cobalt species(Co(IV)O)mediated oxidation of glucose into value-added products in acetonitrile.This photocatalytic Fenton-like system achieved an overall selectivity of gluconic acid,glucaric acid,arabinose,and formic acid up to 90.3%at glucose conversion of 69.6%,outperforming most of previously reported catalytic systems.The small amount(0.72 wt%)of single-atom Co could not only elevate the optical absorption and the efficiency of photo-generated carriers separation but also induce the efficient generation of Co(IV)O with reduced ROS to enable efficient and selective oxidation.These findings prove the great promise of high-valent metal-oxo species in biomass conversions.

文摘Underground engineering projects such as deep tunnel excavation often encounter rockburst disasters accompanied by numerous microseismic events.Rapid interpretation of microseismic signals is crucial for the timely identification of rockbursts.However,conventional processing encompasses multi-step workflows,including classification,denoising,picking,locating,and computational analysis,coupled with manual intervention,which collectively compromise the reliability of early warnings.To address these challenges,this study innovatively proposes the“microseismic stethoscope"-a multi-task machine learning and deep learning model designed for the automated processing of massive microseismic signals.This model efficiently extracts three key parameters that are necessary for recognizing rockburst disasters:rupture location,microseismic energy,and moment magnitude.Specifically,the model extracts raw waveform features from three dedicated sub-networks:a classifier for source zone classification,and two regressors for microseismic energy and moment magnitude estimation.This model demonstrates superior efficiency compared to traditional processing and semi-automated processing,reducing per-event processing time from 0.71 s to 0.49 s to merely 0.036 s.It concurrently achieves 98%accuracy in source zone classification,with microseismic energy and moment magnitude estimation errors of 0.13 and 0.05,respectively.This model has been well applied and validated in the Daxiagu Tunnel case in Sichuan,China.The application results indicate that the model is as accurate as traditional methods in determining source parameters,and thus can be used to identify potential geomechanical processes of rockburst disasters.By enhancing the signal processing reliability of microseismic events,the proposed model in this study presents a significant advancement in the identification of rockburst disasters.

文摘Vacuum-ultraviolet(VUV)radiation is high-energy UV radiation with a wavelength of 100-200 nm capable of decomposing/mineralizing hazardous emerging organic pollutants(EPs)in water through direct photolysis and/or by generating reactive free radicals(RFRs)during photolysis.However,due to the unsatisfactory photoelectric conversion rate,strong absorption by oxygen and water molecules,and other characteristics of VUV radiation,its application and development are hindered,leading to misconceptions regarding high energy consumption and insufficient free radical yield.The objectives of our assessment in this review are as follows:The illumination of the photochemical characteristics of VUV and the reactivity of aqueous solutions.Summarization of accurate UV dose and energy evaluation criteria.Comparison and analysis of the photochemical mechanisms and reaction kinetics of different types of EPs via VUV direct photolysis,as well as the interference origins of typical substrates in water for VUV decontamination.We found that quantities typically reported in VUV photochemical reactions of engineered systems are underreported in low-pressure mercury lamp(LPUV)photochemical reactions,especially a quantitative indicator of the species or energy that induces a chemical reaction.The absence of these quantities has made it difficult to assess the fundamental performance of VUV photolysis fully compared with that of UV-C.Some studies have sought to optimize VUV-advanced reduction processes(VUV-ARP)or VUV reactor treatment of these contaminants;however,an abundant evaluation of the reaction origins and processes between VUV-derived main RFRs and reactants(H_(2)O,O_(2),organic matter,inorganic ions,etc.)is essential,cause these scientific elements will provide the possibility to break the application gap for VUV in the field of EPs treating.Overall,the data compilation,analysis,and research recommendations provided in this review will form the basis for all photochemical reactions initiated by VUV radiation with water as the backing agent.

文摘In this paper,we propose a novel graph signal processing convolution recurrent network(GSP CRN)for signal enhancement against high suppressive interference(HSI)in wireless communications.GSPCRN consists of the short-time graph signal processing(SGSP)approach and a modified convolution recurrent network.Similar to the traditional shorttime time-frequency transformation,SGSP frames the complex-valued communication signal and transforms it to the graph-domain representations,where the connection and weight flexibility of each vertex are fully taken into account.In the presence of HSI,SGSP can extract signal features from new graph-domain dimensions and empower neural networks for weak signal enhancement.Two SGSP methods,adjacency singular value decomposition and implicit graph transformation,are designed to capture relationships among the sampling points in the segmented signals.Simulation results demonstrate that our proposed GSPCRN outperforms existing classic methods in extracting weak signals from the HSI environment.When the interference-to-signal ratio exceeds 27dB,only our proposed GSPCRN can achieve the interference mitigation.

文摘Two-step-processed(TSP)inverted p-i-n perovskite solar cells(PSCs)have demonstrated significant promise in tandem applications.However,the power conversion efficiency(PCE)of TSP p-i-n PSCs rarely exceeds 24%.Here,we demonstrate that TSP perovskite films exhibit a vertically gradient distribution of residual PbI_(2)clusters,which form Schottky heterojunctions with the perovskite,leading to substantial interfacial energy-level mismatches within NiO_(x)-based TSP p-i-n PSCs.These limitations were effectively addressed via a vertical interfacial engineering enabled by dual-interface modification incorporating tin trifluoromethanesulfonate(Sn(OTF)_(2))and 4-Fluorophenylethylamine chloride(F-PEA)at the NiO_(x)/perovskite and perovskite/C60 interfaces,respectively.The functional Sn(OTF)_(2)not only enhances the conductivity of NiO_(x)films but also suppresses ion migration,while inducing the formation of a Pb-Sn mixed perovskite interlayer that precisely regulates the energy level at the NiO_(x)/perovskite interface.Complementally,F-PEA post-treatment effectively converts surface residual PbI_(2)clusters into a 2D perovskite capping layer,which simultaneously passivates surface defects and enhances energy-level alignment at the perovskite/C60 interface.Consequently,the optimized NiO_(x)-based TSP p-i-n PSCs achieve a notable PCE of 25.6%with superior operational stability.This study elucidates the underlying mechanisms limiting the efficiency of TSP p-i-n PSCs,while establishing design principles for these devices targeting 26%efficiency.

文摘Gradient refractive index(GRIN)metalenses are increasingly valued in high-frequency communication due to their exceptional radiation performance.Ceramics with high dielectric constants and low dielectric losses are ideal candidates for GRIN metalenses.Digital light processing(DLP)3D printing provides a feasible and efficient approach for manufacturing ceramic GRIN metalenses.However,the scattering of ultraviolet(UV)light by ceramic particles in the slurry reduces the printing accuracy of DLP technology,making it difficult to achieve the intricate structural features required for GRIN metalenses in high-frequency communication.In this work,we propose an approach to improve printing accuracy by optimizing the ceramic slurry composition and implementing a dimensional compensation design strategy.Utilizing geometric optics and the S-parameter inversion method,we design a GRIN metalens consisting of two distinct types of subwavelength unit cells(Y-shaped and circular hole geometries)with a minimum feature size of 160μm.Through a refined slurry formulation and precise design parameter compensation,high-fidelity ceramic GRIN metalenses are successfully fabricated.The fabricated metalens exhibits a maximum gain enhancement of 18.4 dBi and a deflection angle of±30°over a bandwidth of 37.84% in the W-band(75-110 GHz).The highly directional far-field beam radiation and efficient beam steering capabilities highlight the potential of ceramic GRIN metalenses for applications in satellite communications,radar systems,and other high-frequency technologies.

文摘English reading proficiency is essential for university students in a globalized academic environment,yet many L2 learners encounter challenges,such as limited vocabulary,complex syntax,and unclear text organization,leading to cognitive overload.Grounded in the Cognitive Load Theory(CLT),this study examines the role of the Chunking Reading Processing Strategy-which integrates fragmented linguistic information into meaningful units at lexical,syntactic,and discourse levels-in alleviating cognitive load and improving reading comprehension.Through a mixed-methods approach,the research investigates how learners at different proficiency levels perceive and apply the chunking strategy,and how such application relates to cognitive load management.The results indicate that higher-proficiency learners employ chunking more frequently and report greater benefits,whereas lower-proficiency learners depend more on instructional support.The study confirms the theoretical and pedagogical value of chunk-based reading instruction and suggests that differentiated,cognitively informed teaching of the chunking strategy can enhance both reading efficiency and strategic awareness among L2 learners.

文摘Traffic at urban intersections frequently encounters unexpected obstructions,resulting in congestion due to uncooperative and priority-based driving behavior.This paper presents an optimal right-turn coordination system for Connected and Automated Vehicles(CAVs)at single-lane intersections,particularly in the context of left-hand side driving on roads.The goal is to facilitate smooth right turns for certain vehicles without creating bottlenecks.We consider that all approaching vehicles share relevant information through vehicular communications.The Intersection Coordination Unit(ICU)processes this information and communicates the optimal crossing or turning times to the vehicles.The primary objective of this coordination is to minimize overall traffic delays,which also helps improve the fuel consumption of vehicles.By considering information from upcoming vehicles at the intersection,the coordination system solves an optimization problem to determine the best timing for executing right turns,ultimately minimizing the total delay for all vehicles.The proposed coordination system is evaluated at a typical urban intersection,and its performance is compared to traditional traffic systems.Numerical simulation results indicate that the proposed coordination system significantly enhances the average traffic speed and fuel consumption compared to the traditional traffic system in various scenarios.
