This characteristic has a great influence on dam and slope engineering. There is a large area of saline soil in western Jilin Province, the seasonal frost zone, and this soil is highly dispersive. We studied the properties of soil samples collected from vertical holes near Qian'an Dabusu Lake, as- sessing the particle size distribution and the chemical components. We also comprehensively identified the level of soil dispersivity by three standard methods, the pinhole test, the crumb test, and the double-hydrometer test. The soil compo- sition and basic physicochemical properties are proved to be the most important factors which determine the dispersion degree of the saline soil. Our results showed that, within depth ranges from 0 to 1 m, silt particles highly influenced the soil dispersivity, and the total soluble salt accounted for ≥0.3%. At the first sampling point, in a tall soil column, the dispersion degree decreased with increasing depth, but this was not as obvious at the second sampling point, which was in a flat area. Nevertheless, the superficial soils of these two sampling sites were strongly dispersive, which must be taken into consid- eration for soil engineering in this region.展开更多

Stationary instability and dispersivity of wave propagation in the media in one-dimensional problem were analyzed. The effects of the following factors on stationary, instability and dispersivity were discussed. They are the viscous and inertial couplings between the solid and the fluid phases, compressibility of the mixture composed of solid grains and pore fluid, the degree of saturation, visco-plastic (rate dependent inelastic) constitutive behavior of the solid skeleton under high strain rate. results and conclusion obtained by the present work will provide some bases or clues for overcoming the difficulties in numerical modelling of wave propagation in the media subjected to strong and shock loading.展开更多

文摘The relative dispersion of cloud and fog droplets has significant impacts on aerosol indirect effects,radiative transfer,and microphysical processes.However,previous studies have been mostly concerned with clouds,with limited studies on fog,particularly those that examine the combined influences of all key physical processes and their roles during fog evolution.As such,this study aims to conduct a comprehensive investigation by examining the relationships between relative dispersion and other microphysical variables,as well as the underlying microphysical and dynamic processes,based on field fog campaigns in polluted and clean conditions.In polluted fog,droplet concentrations are higher,leading to smaller droplets and increased dispersion.The correlation between dispersion and droplet volume-mean radius is positive in the polluted fog,but shifts to negative in clean fog.We attribute the difference to various microphysical processes like aerosol activation,condensation,collision-coalescence,and entrainment-mixing.In polluted fog,high aerosol concentrations,low supersaturations,and strong turbulence(entrainment-mixing)provide suitable conditions for the simultaneous occurrence of droplet condensation and aerosol activation,resulting in a positive correlation between dispersion and volume-mean radius,especially during the fog formation stage.In contrast,during the mature stage in clean fog,condensation is dominant with weak aerosol activation leading to a negative correlation between relative dispersion and volume-mean radius.The collision-coalescence process is more active in the mature stage,increasing radii and leading to the negative correlation between dispersion and volume-mean radius.This result sheds new light on understanding the relative dispersion and mechanisms in fog under different aerosol backgrounds.

文摘Single-atom catalysts(SACs)have demonstrated excellent performance in heterogeneous catalytic reactions owing to their maximized atomic efficiency,distinctive geometric,and electronic configurations.However,the efficacy of SACs remains limited for certain reactions requiring simultaneous activation of multiple reactants over metallic active sites.Herein,we report an atomically dispersed Pt1Ru1 dual-atom pair site anchored on nanodiamond@graphene(ND@G)for CO oxidation.The Pt1Ru1 dual-atom catalyst shows an exceptional turnover frequency(TOF)of 17.6.10^(-2)s^(-1)at significantly lower temperature(30℃),achieving a tenfold increase in TOF compared to singleatom Pt1/ND@G catalyst(1.5.10^(-2)s^(-1))and surpassing to previously reported Pt-based catalysts under similar conditions.Moreover,the catalyst demonstrates excellent stability,maintaining its activity for 40 h at 80℃without significant deactivation.The superior catalytic performance of Pt-Ru dual-atom catalysts is attributed to the synergistic effect between Pt and Ru atoms with enhanced metallicity for improving simultaneous adsorption and activation of CO and O_(2),and the tuning of conventional competitive reactant adsorption into a non-competitive pathway over dual-atom pair sites.The present work manifests the advantages of dual-atom pair sites in heterogeneous catalysis and paves the way for precise design of catalysts at the atomic scale.

文摘Nanoparticle-reinforced Mg matrix composites(NPMMCs)capitalize on the synergistic properties of nanoparticles and Mg matrix,resulting in enhanced mechanical attributes compared to matrix.Nonetheless,effective high-temperature dispersion of nanoparticles remains challenging.This study employs a molten salt dispersant(NaCl-KCl-MgCl_(2))effectively mitigating the oxidation and combustion of TiC nanoparticles(TiC_(np)).Compared with the atmosphere,the molten salt facilitates the pre-dispersion of TiC_(np)through thermal motion at elevated temperatures,thereby reducing agglomeration between the TiC_(np).Simultaneously,the molten salt effectively wets and disrupts the oxide layer on the surface of Mg melt,facilitating the wetting of TiC_(np)by the Mg melt.The successful incorporation of 3 vol.%TiC_(np)into the Mg matrix is achieved by utilizing molten salt,and the addition of TiC_(np)increases the viscosity of mg melt.Further dispersed by ultrasonic dispersion,the unique distribution of TiC_(np)within ring-like structures was obtained which was attributed to the increase of viscosity.As a configurational distribution,the ring-like TiC_(np)distribution morphology significantly enhances the mechanical properties of composites,as evidenced by an approximate 50%increase in compressive strength(UCS).

文摘In the dispersed computing environment driven by intelligent networks,intrusion detection faces significant challenges.This paper proposes a multilayer decentralized federated learning framework based on mean field game theory(MFG-DFL).The framework organizes networked computing points(NCPs)into a three-layer collaborative architecture,and innovatively introduces MFG theory to model the complex dynamic interactions,which among large-scale NCPs as a game between a representative NCP and the mean field.By solving the coupled HJB and FPK equations,we design a dynamic incentive mechanism to fairly quantify and reward NCP contributions,thus aligning individual rationality with the global objectives of the system.The simulation results on the CICIoT2023 data set demonstrate the outstanding performance of the proposed framework.Specifically,it achieves an intrusion detection accuracy of 81.09%in highly non-IID scenarios,showcasing a well-balanced trade-off between computational efficiency and performance enhancement.

文摘This letter addresses challenges in the clinical translation of BIBR1532,a promising telomerase inhibitor,for the treatment of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma(ESCC).BIBR1532 exerts its anti-cancer effect by activating DNA damage response(ATR/CHK1 and ATM/CHK2)pathways and downregulating telomere-binding proteins.Although its therapeutic potential is limited by poor aqueous solubility,solid dispersion(SD)technology may overcome this obstacle.Systematic analysis using PubChem-derived simplified molecular input line entry system identifiers and artificial intelligence-driven FormulationDT platform evaluation(oral formulation feasibility index:0.38)revealed that the SD technology,with superior scalability(32 approved products by 2021)and lower production risks,outperforms lipid-based formulations as an optimal dissolution strategy.Material analysis revealed hydroxypropyl methylcellulose(HPMC)as the optimal carrier with lower hygroscopicity,higher temperature and no intestinal targeting,thus enabling ESCC therapy.HPMC-based SD enhances BIBR1532 solubility and bioavailability for effective ESCC treatment.Future studies should focus on pilot tests for SD fabrication.

文摘Oxide dispersion strengthened(ODS)alloys are extensively used owing to high thermostability and creep strength contributed from uniformly dispersed fine oxides particles.However,the existence of these strengthening particles also deteriorates the processability and it is of great importance to establish accurate processing maps to guide the thermomechanical processes to enhance the formability.In this study,we performed particle swarm optimization-based back propagation artificial neural network model to predict the high temperature flow behavior of 0.25wt%Al2O3 particle-reinforced Cu alloys,and compared the accuracy with that of derived by Arrhenius-type constitutive model and back propagation artificial neural network model.To train these models,we obtained the raw data by fabricating ODS Cu alloys using the internal oxidation and reduction method,and conducting systematic hot compression tests between 400 and800℃with strain rates of 10^(-2)-10 S^(-1).At last,processing maps for ODS Cu alloys were proposed by combining processing parameters,mechanical behavior,microstructure characterization,and the modeling results achieved a coefficient of determination higher than>99%.

文摘To simultaneously enrich,separate,and determine five fluoroquinolone antibiotics(FQs)in marine crude drugs(MCDs),seawater and seafood,we conducted this study using vortex assisted dispersed liquid-liquid microextraction(DLLME),followed by capillary electrophoresis(CE)-UV.A single-variable optimization was employed to examine the factors influencing the separation effect of CE and the extraction efficiency of DLLME,including buffer solution,organic solvent,separation voltage,extractant,dispersant,and sample solution pH.Under the optimal conditions,the baseline separation of the five FQs was achieved within 6 min.The analytical performance of the method was assessed using six types of actual samples,including three MCDs of hippocampus,clam,and kelp,seawater,and two seafood of prawn and pomfret,demonstrating good linearity ranging from 0.1-5 or 0.01-5μg/mL.The limits of detection(LODs)and limits of quantification(LOQs)for the five FQs in MCDs were 0.0022-0.0292 and 0.0066-0.0973μg/mL,respectively.The LODs and LOQs in seawater and seafood were 0.0009-0.0262 and 0.0029-0.0874μg/mL,respectively.The matrix effects of this method were evaluated in the hippocampus,seawater,and prawn,and the results show that DLLME could effectively eliminate matrix interference.Satisfactory recovery rates were achieved in all the six tested actual samples.This developed DLLME-CE method was proven simple to operate,accurate and reliable,with high sensitivity,making it suitable for the analysis of multiple antibiotic residues in complex matrices.

文摘Automatic generalization of geographic information is the core of multi_scale representation of spatial data,but the scale_dependent generalization methods are far from abundant because of its extreme complicacy.This paper puts forward a new consistency model about scale_dependent representations of relief based on wavelet analysis,and discusses the thresholds in the model so as to acquire the continual representations of relief with different details between scales.The model not only meets the need of automatic generalization but also is scale-dependent completely.Some practical examples are given.

文摘Saline soil is vulnerable to water erosion because of its dispersivity. This characteristic has a great influence on dam and slope engineering. There is a large area of saline soil in western Jilin Province, the seasonal frost zone, and this soil is highly dispersive. We studied the properties of soil samples collected from vertical holes near Qian'an Dabusu Lake, as- sessing the particle size distribution and the chemical components. We also comprehensively identified the level of soil dispersivity by three standard methods, the pinhole test, the crumb test, and the double-hydrometer test. The soil compo- sition and basic physicochemical properties are proved to be the most important factors which determine the dispersion degree of the saline soil. Our results showed that, within depth ranges from 0 to 1 m, silt particles highly influenced the soil dispersivity, and the total soluble salt accounted for ≥0.3%. At the first sampling point, in a tall soil column, the dispersion degree decreased with increasing depth, but this was not as obvious at the second sampling point, which was in a flat area. Nevertheless, the superficial soils of these two sampling sites were strongly dispersive, which must be taken into consid- eration for soil engineering in this region.
文摘A model based on the Biot theory for simulating coupled hydro-dynamic behavior in saturated-unsaturated porous media was utilized with integration of the inertial coupling effect between the solid-fluid phases of the media into the model. Stationary instability and dispersivity of wave propagation in the media in one-dimensional problem were analyzed. The effects of the following factors on stationary, instability and dispersivity were discussed. They are the viscous and inertial couplings between the solid and the fluid phases, compressibility of the mixture composed of solid grains and pore fluid, the degree of saturation, visco-plastic (rate dependent inelastic) constitutive behavior of the solid skeleton under high strain rate. results and conclusion obtained by the present work will provide some bases or clues for overcoming the difficulties in numerical modelling of wave propagation in the media subjected to strong and shock loading.

文摘Metal-based catalysts are prevalent in the CO_(2) hydrogenation to methanol owing to their remarkable catalytic activity.Herein,Ru/In_(2)O_(3) catalysts with different morphologies obtained by doping Ru into In_(2)O_(3) with irregular,rod-like,and flower-like morphologies are used for catalytic CO_(2) hydrogenation to methanol.Results indicate that the flower-like Ru/In_(2)O_(3)(Ru/In_(2)O_(3)-F)exhibits higher catalytic performance than Ru/In_(2)O_(3) with other morphologies,achieving a 12.9%CO_(2) conversion,74.02%methanol selectivity,and 671.36 mg_(MeOH) h^(−1) g_(cat)^(−1) methanol spatiotemporal yield.Furthermore,Ru/In_(2)O_(3)-F maintains its catalytic stability over 200 h at 5 MPa and 290℃.The promotional effect mainly stems from the fact that electronic structure of Ru can be effectively adjusted by modulating the morphology of In_(2)O_(3).The strong interaction between atomically dispersed Ru and In_(2)O_(3)-F enhances the structural stability of Ru,inhibiting the agglomeration of the catalyst during the reaction process.Furthermore,density-functional theory calculations reveal that highly dispersed Ru atoms not only perform efficient and rapid electronic gain and loss processes,facilitating the catalytic activation of H_(2) into H intermediates.It also enables the generated reactive H to rapidly overflow to the surrounding In sites to participate in CO_(2) reduction.These findings provide a theoretical basis for the development of high-performance catalysts for CO_(2) hydrogenation.
文摘Dispersals,colonisation,immigration and population assimilation or replacement are fundamental themes in the Palaeolithic record of East Asia.Some of these issues can be studied within a biogeographic framework that explains why and how the distribution of hominin species changed over time and space in response to climatic and environmental change.Because hominins(and especially humans)can change their behaviour through technical,social and cognitive developments,biogeographic models also have to incorporate this factor when investigating dispersals.This is particularly important with the dispersals in East Asia by Homo sapiens into rainforests,across open sea to off-shore islands,to the Arctic and the highest parts of the Tibetan Plateau.This paper suggests how hominin and human dispersals in East Asia might be investigated by using a biogeographic framework that can incorporate changes in hominin adaptability and behaviour.

文摘CO_(2)-responsive gels,which swell upon contact with CO_(2),are widely used for profile control to plug high-permeability gas flow channels in carbon capture,utilization,and storage(CCUS)applications in oil reser-voirs.However,the use of these gels in high-temperature CCUS applications is limited due to their rever-sible swelling behavior at elevated temperatures.In this study,a novel dispersed particle gel(DPG)suspension is developed for high-temperature profile control in CCUS applications.First,we synthesize a double-network hydrogel consisting of a crosslinked polyacrylamide(PAAm)network and a crosslinked sodium alginate(SA)network.The hydrogel is then sheared in water to form a pre-prepared DPG suspen-sion.To enhance its performance,the gel particles are modified by introducing potassium methylsilan-etriolate(PMS)upon CO_(2) exposure.Comparing the particle size distributions of the modified and pre-prepared DPG suspension reveals a significant swelling of gel particles,over twice their original size.Moreover,subjecting the new DPG suspension to a 100℃ environment for 24 h demonstrates that its gel particle sizes do not decrease,confirming irreversible swelling,which is a significant advantage over the traditional CO_(2)-responsive gels.Thermogravimetric analysis further indicates improved thermal sta-bility compared to the pre-prepared DPG particles.Core flooding experiments show that the new DPG suspension achieves a high plugging efficiency of 95.3%in plugging an ultra-high permeability sandpack,whereas the pre-prepared DPG suspension achieves only 82.8%.With its high swelling ratio,irreversible swelling at high temperatures,enhanced thermal stability,and superior plugging performance,the newly developed DPG suspension in this work presents a highly promising solution for profile control in high-temperature CCUS applications.

文摘Fine particulatematter(PM_(2.5))samples were collected in two neighboring cities,Beijing and Baoding,China.High-concentration events of PM_(2.5) in which the average mass concentration exceeded 75μg/m^(3) were frequently observed during the heating season.Dispersion Normalized Positive Matrix Factorization was applied for the source apportionment of PM_(2.5) as minimize the dilution effects of meteorology and better reflect the source strengths in these two cities.Secondary nitrate had the highest contribution for Beijing(37.3%),and residential heating/biomass burning was the largest for Baoding(27.1%).Secondary nitrate,mobile,biomass burning,district heating,oil combustion,aged sea salt sources showed significant differences between the heating and non-heating seasons in Beijing for same period(2019.01.10–2019.08.22)(Mann-Whitney Rank Sum Test P<0.05).In case of Baoding,soil,residential heating/biomass burning,incinerator,coal combustion,oil combustion sources showed significant differences.The results of Pearson correlation analysis for the common sources between the two cities showed that long-range transported sources and some sources with seasonal patterns such as oil combustion and soil had high correlation coefficients.Conditional Bivariate Probability Function(CBPF)was used to identify the inflow directions for the sources,and joint-PSCF(Potential Source Contribution Function)was performed to determine the common potential source areas for sources affecting both cities.These models facilitated a more precise verification of city-specific influences on PM_(2.5) sources.The results of this study will aid in prioritizing air pollution mitigation strategies during the heating season and strengthening air quality management to reduce the impact of downwind neighboring cities.
文摘Graphene and its derivatives are two-dimensional nanomaterials with exceptional physical and chemical properties.Research has shown that their addition can counter the inherent deficiencies of cementbased composites,including low tensile strength,poor toughness,and high susceptibility to cracking.However,because of its high specific surface area and the van der Waals force between layers,graphene is prone to agglomerate in the cement matrix which can make the properties worse.Hence,improving the graphene dispersion is essential.The surface structure and properties of graphene and its derivatives are first introduced,and the different methods for their dispersion in cement-based materials are reviewed.Their effects on the mechanical properties and durability of cement-based materials are then summarized.Based on these results,the microscopic and nanoscopic mechanisms of the way graphene and its derivatives affect cement-based materials are elaborated.Current problems and future trends in this research area are then considered.
