文摘Photocatalytic H_(2) evolution from wastewater exhibits fascinating prospects in environment and energy fields.Here,we propose a novel 3D cross-linked g-C_(3)N_(4) network(SCN)assembling with 1D nanowires.This network structure endows SCN with abundant carbon defects,creating a defect energy level and shallow charge trapping centres,which significantly prolongs the photocarrier lifetime,suppresses their recombination and facilitates the mass transfer process during the dye photodegradation.Consequently,in photocatalytic H_(2) evolution coupled with Rhodamine B(RhB)photodegradation under visible light,the H_(2) production rate of SCN is 283μmol h^(-1)g^(-1),accompanying by 97%RhB photodegradation efficiency,much higher than UCN's 31μmol h^(-1)g^(-1)and 64%.In particular,AQY of SCN for H_(2) evolution from RhB solution reaches 23.7%at 380 nm.Furthermore,the calculated transition states demonstrate that the N1 site connected to the defect in SCN has a minimum Gibbs free energy ΔG(H^(*)),indicating that H~+undergoes an H^(+)→H^(*)→H_(2) evolution process.

文摘In dynamic 5G network environments,user mobility and heterogeneous network topologies pose dual challenges to the effort of improving performance of mobile edge caching.Existing studies often overlook the dynamic nature of user locations and the potential of device-to-device(D2D)cooperative caching,limiting the reduction of transmission latency.To address this issue,this paper proposes a joint optimization scheme for edge caching that integrates user mobility prediction with deep reinforcement learning.First,a Transformer-based geolocation prediction model is designed,leveraging multi-head attention mechanisms to capture correlations in historical user trajectories for accurate future location prediction.Then,within a three-tier heterogeneous network,we formulate a latency minimization problem under a D2D cooperative caching architecture and develop a mobility-aware Deep Q-Network(DQN)caching strategy.This strategy takes predicted location information as state input and dynamically adjusts the content distribution across small base stations(SBSs)andmobile users(MUs)to reduce end-to-end delay inmulti-hop content retrieval.Simulation results show that the proposed DQN-based method outperforms other baseline strategies across variousmetrics,achieving a 17.2%reduction in transmission delay compared to DQNmethods withoutmobility integration,thus validating the effectiveness of the joint optimization of location prediction and caching decisions.
文摘In Saharan climates,greenhouses face extreme diurnal temperature fluctuations that generate thermal stress,reduce crop productivity,and hinder sustainable agricultural practices.Passive thermal storage using Phase Change Materials(PCM)is a promising solution to stabilize microclimatic conditions.This study aims to evaluate experimentally and numerically the effectiveness of PCM integration for moderating greenhouse temperature fluctuations under Saharan climatic conditions.Two identical greenhouse prototypes were constructed in Ghardaia,Algeria:a reference greenhouse and a PCM-integrated greenhouse using calcium chloride hexahydrate(CaCl_(2)⋅6H_(2)O).Thermal performance was assessed during a five-day experimental period(7–11May 2025)under severe ambient conditions.To complement this,a Nonlinear Auto-Regressive with eXogenous inputs(NARX)neural network model was developed and trained using a larger dataset(7–25 May 2025)to predict greenhouse thermal dynamics.The PCM greenhouse reduced peak daytime air temperature by an average of 8.14℃and decreased the diurnal temperature amplitude by 53.6%compared to the reference greenhouse.The NARX model achieved high predictive accuracy(R^(2)=0.990,RMSE=0.425℃,MAE=0.223℃,MBE=0.008℃),capturing both sensible and latent heat transfer mechanisms,including PCM melting and solidification.The combined experimental and predictive modeling results confirm the potential of PCM integration as an effective passive thermal regulation strategy for greenhouses in arid regions.This approach enhances microclimatic stability,improves energy efficiency,and supports the sustainability of protected agriculture under extreme climatic conditions.

文摘Coptis chinensis Franch.and Panax ginseng C.A.Mey.are traditional herbal medicines with millennia of documented use and broad therapeutic applications,including anti-diabetic properties.However,the synergistic effect of total alkaloids from Coptis chinensis and total ginsenosides from Panax ginseng on type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM)and its underlying mechanism remain unclear.The research demonstrated that the optimal ratio of total alkaloids from Coptis chinensis and total ginsenosides from Panax ginseng was 4∶1,exhibiting maximal efficacy in improving insulin resistance and gluconeogenesis in primary mouse hepatocytes.This combination demonstrated significant synergistic effects in improving glucose tolerance,reducing fasting blood glucose(FBG),the weight ratio of epididymal white adipose tissue(eWAT),and the homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance(HOMA-IR)in leptin receptor-deficient(db/db)mice.Subsequently,a T2DM liver-specific network was constructed based on RNA sequencing(RNA-seq)experiments and public databases by integrating transcriptional properties of disease-associated proteins and protein-protein interactions(PPIs).The network recovery index(NRI)score of the combined treatment group with a 4∶1 ratio exceeded that of groups treated with individual components.The research identified that activated adenosine 5'-monophosphate-activated protein kinase(AMPK)/acetyl-CoA carboxylase(ACC)signaling in the liver played a crucial role in the synergistic treatment of T2DM,as verified by western blot experiment in db/db mice.These findings demonstrate that the 4∶1 combination of total alkaloids from Coptis chinensis and total ginsenosides from Panax ginseng significantly improves insulin resistance and glucose and lipid metabolism disorders in db/db mice,surpassing the efficacy of individual treatments.The synergistic mechanism correlates with enhanced AMPK/ACC signaling pathway activity.
