文摘The Early Cambrian Yuertusi Formation(Є_(1)y)in the Tarim Basin of China deposits a continuously developed suite of organic-rich black mudstones,which constitute an important source of oil and gas reservoirs in the Paleozoic.However,its hydrocarbon generation and evolution characteristics and resource potential have long been constrained by deeply buried strata and previous research.In this paper,based on the newly obtained ultra-deep well drilling data,the hydrocarbon generation and expulsion model ofЄ_(1)y shale was established by using data-driven Monte Carlo simulation,upon which the hydrocarbon generation,expulsion,and retention amounts were calculated by using the diagenetic method.The research indicates that theЄ_(1)y shale reaches the hydrocarbon generation and expulsion threshold at equivalent vitrinite reflectances of 0.46%and 0.72%,respectively.The cumulative hydrocarbon generation is 68.88×10^(10)t,the cumulative hydrocarbon expulsion is 35.59×10^(10)t,and the cumulative residual hydrocarbon is 33.29×10^(10)t.This paper systematically and quantitatively calculates the hydrocarbon expulsion at various key geological periods for theЄ_(1)y source rocks in the study area for the first time,more precisely confirming that the black shale of theЄ_(1)y is the most significant source rock contributing to the marine oil and gas resources in the Tarim Basin,filling the gap in hydrocarbon expulsion calculation in the study area,and providing an important basis for the formation and distribution of Paleozoic hydrocarbon reservoirs.The prospect of deep ultra-deep oil and gas exploration in the Tarim Basin is promising.Especially,the large area of dolomite reservoirs under the Cambrian salt and source rock interiors are the key breakthrough targets for the next exploration in the Tarim Basin.

文摘1.Introduction As China’s first floating production platform in ultra-deepwater,the“Deep Sea No.1”energy station is a milestone in China’s deepwater resource utilization.The energy station is located in the LS17-2 gas field,150 km off the southeast coast of Hainan Island,China.It is a semi-submersible platform(Fig.1)with a displacement of 101 thousand tonnes and an operational draft of 35 to 40 m.The platform is permanently moored in 1422 m water by 16 chain-polyester-chain mooring lines in a 4×4 pattern,and six steel catenary risers(SCRs)are attached to the platform.It is the world’s first and only semi-submersible platform with the function of condensate storage,so it can be regarded as a floating production storage and offloading(FPSO)unit.With the ability to produce 3 billion m3 of natural gas each year(enough for over 10 million families),the Deep Sea No.1 energy station is a key step toward China’s energy independence.The LS17-2 gas field,where the Deep Sea No.1 energy station is located,was discovered in 2014.Plans for its development were made in 2015,followed by research and a preliminary design.Deep Sea No.1 went into operation on June 25,2021,and will operate onsite continuously without dry-docking for 30 years.
文摘Energy poverty in developing countries is a critical issue characterized by the lack of access to modern energy services,such as electricity and clean cooking facilities,as marked in SDG 7.This study explores the correlations between energy poverty,energy intensity,resource abundance,and income inequality,as these factors have been theorized to play important roles in influencing energy poverty in developing countries.By observing that the dataset is heterogeneous across the countries and over the time frame,we use the Method of Moments Quantile Regression(MMQR)to analyze our developing countries’data from 2000 to 2019.Our findings indicate that energy intensity is a significant factor influencing energy poverty,suggesting that higher energy consumption relative to the sample countries can exacerbate this issue.Additionally,we observe that income inequality within the sample countries is a critical determinant of energy poverty levels,highlighting the dynamics between economic disparity and access to energy resources.Interestingly,our study reveals that resource abundance acts as a blessing rather than a curse in terms of energy poverty,implying that countries rich in natural resources may have better opportunities to combat energy deprivation.Finally,we emphasize the vital role of financial markets in addressing energy poverty on a global scale,suggesting that robust financial systems can facilitate investments and innovations aimed at improving energy access for vulnerable populations.The results from the robustness analysis support the empirical results obtained from the main estimation.The empirical findings of the present study advance important comprehensions for policymakers to adopt energy policies that address the complex challenges of energy poverty and promote inclusive energy access.

文摘In this paper,we investigate a multi-UAV aided NOMA communication system,where multiple UAV-mounted aerial base stations are employed to serve ground users in the downlink NOMA communication,and each UAV serves its associated users on its own bandwidth.We aim at maximizing the overall common throughput in a finite time period.Such a problem is a typical mixed integer nonlinear problem,which involves both continuous-variable and combinatorial optimizations.To efficiently solve this problem,we propose a two-layer algorithm,which separately tackles continuous-variable and combinatorial optimization.Specifically,in the inner layer given one user association scheme,subproblems of bandwidth allocation,power allocation and trajectory design are solved based on alternating optimization.In the outer layer,a small number of candidate user association schemes are generated from an initial scheme and the best solution can be determined by comparing all the candidate schemes.In particular,a clustering algorithm based on K-means is applied to produce all candidate user association schemes,the successive convex optimization technique is adopted in the power allocation subproblem and a logistic function approximation approach is employed in the trajectory design subproblem.Simulation results show that the proposed NOMA scheme outperforms three baseline schemes in downlink common throughput,including one solution proposed in an existing literature.

文摘Ball milling is an environmentally friendly technology for the remediation of petroleumcontaminated soil(PCS),but the cleanup of organic pollutants requires a long time,and the post-remediation soil needs an economically viable disposal/reuse strategy due to its vast volume.The present paper develops a ball milling process under oxygen atmosphere to enhance PCS remediation and reuse the obtained carbonized soil(BCS-O)as wastewater treatment materials.The total petroleum hydrocarbon removal rates by ball milling under vacuum,air,and oxygen atmospheres are 39.83%,55.21%,and 93.84%,respectively.The Langmuir and pseudo second-order models satisfactorily describe the adsorption capacity and behavior of BCS-O for transition metals.The Cu^(2+),Ni^(2+),and Mn^(2+)adsorbed onto BCS-O were mainly bound to metal carbonates and metal oxides.Furthermore,BCS-O can effectively activate persulfate(PDS)oxidation to degrade aniline,while BCS-O loaded with transition metal(BCS-O-Me)shows better activation efficiency and reusability.BCS-O and BCS-O-Me activated PDS oxidation systems are dominated by^(1)O_(2)oxidation and electron transfer.The main active sites are oxygen-containing functional groups,vacancy defects,and graphitized carbon.The oxygen-containing functional groups and vacancy defects primarily activate PDS to generate^(1)O_(2)and attack aniline.Graphitized carbon promotes aniline degradation by accelerating electron transfer.The paper develops an innovative strategy to simultaneously realize efficient remediation of PCS and sequential reuse of the postremediation soil.

文摘The effects of micro-ridge-furrow planting(MR)on yield and the efficiency of light,water,and thermal resource use in rapeseed were tested in a three-year field experiment comparing MR to conventional flat planting.MR enhanced canopy heterogeneity by altering the leaf angle between plants on ridges and furrows.The heterogeneous canopy environment increased intercepted photosynthetic active radiation,alleviated canopy temperature stress,and optimized canopy humidity,leading to improvements in light-nitrogen matching and net photosynthetic rate.Consequently,dry matter and yield increased by 13.0%and 11.0%,respectively,while radiation,thermal,and precipitation utilization efficiency increased by 12.3%-16.2%.The corresponding improvements in yield and resource use efficiency were attributed to a heterogeneous canopy environment that improved microclimatic conditions.
文摘A key component of future lunar missions is the concept of in-situ resource utilization(ISRU),which involves the use of local resources to support human missions and reduce dependence on Earth-based supplies.This paper investigates the thermal processing capability of lunar regolith without the addition of binders,with a focus on large-scale applications for the construction of lunar habitats and infrastructure.The study used a simulant of lunar regolith found on the Schr?dinger Basin in the South Pole region.This regolith simulant consists of20 wt%basalt and 80 wt%anorthosite.Experiments were conducted using a high power CO_(2)laser to sinter and melt the regolith in a 80 mm diameter laser spot to evaluate the effectiveness of direct large area thermal processing.Results indicated that sintering begins at approximately 1180℃and reaches full melt at temperatures above 1360℃.Sintering experiments with this material revealed the formation of dense samples up to 11 mm thick,while melting experiments successfully produced larger samples by overlapping molten layers and additive manufacturing up to 50 mm thick.The energy efficiency of the sintering and melting processes was compared.The melting process was about 10 times more energy efficient than sintering in terms of material consolidation,demonstrating the promising potential of laser melting technologies of anorthosite-rich regolith for the production of structural elements.

文摘In the sixth generation mobile communication(6G) system,Non-Terrestrial Networks(NTN),as a supplement to terrestrial network,can meet the requirements of wide area intelligent connection and global ubiquitous seamless access,establish intelligent connection for wide area objects,and provide intelligent services.Due to issues such as massive access,doppler shift,and limited spectrum resources in NTN,research on resource management is crucial for optimizing NTN performance.In this paper,a comprehensive survey of multi-pattern heterogeneous NTN resource management is provided.Firstly,the key technologies involved in NTN resource management is summarized.Secondly,NTN resource management is discussed from network pattern and resource pattern.The network pattern focuses on the application of different optimization methods to different network dimension communication resource management,and the resource type pattern focuses on the research and application of multi-domain resource management such as computation,cache,communication and sensing.Finally,future research directions and challenges of 6G NTN resource management are discussed.
文摘Given the scarcity of Satellite Frequency and Orbit(SFO)resources,it holds paramount importance to establish a comprehensive knowledge graph of SFO field(SFO-KG)and employ knowledge reasoning technology to automatically mine available SFO resources.An essential aspect of constructing SFO-KG is the extraction of Chinese entity relations.Unfortunately,there is currently no publicly available Chinese SFO entity Relation Extraction(RE)dataset.Moreover,publicly available SFO text data contain numerous NA(representing for“No Answer”)relation category sentences that resemble other relation sentences and pose challenges in accurate classification,resulting in low recall and precision for the NA relation category in entity RE.Consequently,this issue adversely affects both the accuracy of constructing the knowledge graph and the efficiency of RE processes.To address these challenges,this paper proposes a method for extracting Chinese SFO text entity relations based on dynamic integrated learning.This method includes the construction of a manually annotated Chinese SFO entity RE dataset and a classifier combining features of SFO resource data.The proposed approach combines integrated learning and pre-training models,specifically utilizing Bidirectional Encoder Representation from Transformers(BERT).In addition,it incorporates one-class classification,attention mechanisms,and dynamic feedback mechanisms to improve the performance of the RE model.Experimental results show that the proposed method outperforms the traditional methods in terms of F1 value when extracting entity relations from both balanced and long-tailed datasets.
