Considering the rapidly growing research of addressing above-mentioned issue, herein, recent progress in the design and fabrication of uniformly dispersed fillers in PVDF/garnet CPEs for high-performance SSLMBs is summarized. We firstly analyze the mechanism for the aggregation of inorganic fillers, and provide a detailed introduction to the strategies for solving the uneven dispersion of nanoparticles in solid electrolytes. Moreover, we also comprehensively summarize their applications in PVDF/garnet electrolytes and their impact on the electrochemical performance of SSLMBs. Finally, the application challenges and future prospects of PVDF/garnet CPEs in SSLMBs were also proposed to promote their further development. It is anticipated that this review could inspire ongoing research interest in rational designing and fabricating novel CPEs for high-performance SSLMBs.展开更多

文摘In the theory of two-dimensional linear elasticity,an elliptical inclusion is known to attain a constant stress field when perfectly buried in an infinite homogeneous matrix if a uniform eigenstrain is applied to it.The focus of this paper falls on the question:when the initially elliptical inclusion verges on a bi-material interface,what would happen to its configuration if it is required to retain the internal constant stress?Specifically,we explore the anti-plane shear version of this question(the version of plane deformations or three-dimensional deformations seems,however,insoluble at this stage),in which an inclusion undergoing a uniform(anti-plane shear)eigenstrain is embedded in a bi-material structure composed of two infinite elastic half-planes whose interface is straight and perfectly bonded,and the shape of the inclusion is to be determined such that the eigenstraininduced stress inside the inclusion appears to be a constant.Unlike most optimization methods-driven solution procedures for finding the shape of the inclusion approximately in which huge computation is required,we derive by a rigorous theoretical analysis an exact integral equation with respect to the boundary curve of the inclusion that is sufficiently and necessarily related to the existence of a constant stress inside the inclusion.We solve this integral equation via the use of some analytic techniques and present in several illustrative examples a variety of shapes of the inclusion achieving constant stresses.We discover some interesting phenomena for the evolution of the shape of the uniformly stressed inclusion relative to the stiffness of the nearby interface.

文摘The double-sided lapping process is extensively employed in the manufacturing of wafers,optical windows,and seal rings due to its high efficiency and ability to achieve precise flatness.However,limited research has explored the thickness uniformity among different workpieces after double-sided lapping,and the underlying mechanism remains unclear.To address the demand for higher precision,this paper first analyzed the relative kinematic model between the workpiece and the lapping plate to clarify the causes of thickness variations among workpieces after double-sided lapping.Subsequently,a finite element method(FEM)model was developed to account for the pressure distribution on the workpiece surfaces at the initial stage of the process.The results indicate that the number of workpieces influences the final thickness variation.Then,various sets of thin copper plates with different thicknesses were lapped,and the findings revealed that five copper plates processed simultaneously exhibited more uniform thickness compared to the three plates.The experimental results align well with the theoretical analysis.Ultimately,a thickness variation of less than 6μm was achieved on five copper plates measuringΦ100×2.9 mm.This study presents a comprehensive analysis of the mechanisms influencing thickness uniformity in the double-sided lapping process and provides practical guidelines for optimizing the process to achieve stringent precision standards in industrial applications.

文摘In this study,we present a unified sparsity-driven framework that significantly enhances motion deblurring performance by integrating two key components:a custom-designed dataset and a low-rank module(LRM).This framework leverages the inherent sparsity of per-pixel blur kernels to bolster both deblurring accuracy and model interpretability.Firstly,we propose an adaptive-basis decomposition-based deblurring(ADD)approach,which constructs a tailored training dataset to enhance the generalization capacity of the deblurring network.The ADD framework adaptively decomposes motion blur into sparse basis elements,effectively addressing the intricacies associated with non-uniform blurs.Secondly,an LRM is proposed to improve the interpretability of deblurring models as a plug-and-play module,primarily designed to identify and harness the intrinsic sparse features in sharp images.A series of ablation studies have been conducted to substantiate the synergistic advantages of combining the proposed ADD with the LRM for overall improvement in deblurring efficacy.Subsequently,we empirically demonstrate through rigorous experimentation that incorporating the LRM into an existing Uformer network leads to substantial enhancement in reconstruction performance.This integration yields a sparsity-guided low-rank network(SGLRN).Operating under the overarching principle of sparsity,SGLRN consistently outperforms state-of-the-art methods across multiple standard deblurring benchmarks.Comprehensive experimental results,assessed through quantitative metrics and qualitative visual evaluations,provide compelling evidence of its effectiveness.The overall deblurring results are available at Google Drive.

文摘Emerging bio-inspired computing systems simulate the cognitive functions of the brain for the realiza-tion of future computing systems.For the development of such efficient neuromorphic electronics,the emulation of short-term and long-term synaptic plasticity behaviors of the biological synapses is an es-sential step.However,the electronic synaptic devices suffer from higher variability issues which hinder the application of such devices to build neuromorphic systems.For practical applications,it is essen-tial to minimize the cycle-to-cycle and device-to-device variations in the synaptic functions of artifi-cial electronic synapses.This study involves the fabrication of diffusive memristor devices using WTe_(2) chalcogenide as the main switching material.The choice of the switching material provides a facile so-lution to the variability problem.The greater uniformity in the switching characteristics of the WTe_(2)-based memristor offers higher uniformity for the synaptic emulation.These devices exhibit both volatile and nonvolatile switching properties,allowing them to emulate both short-term and long-term synaptic functions.The WTe_(2)-based electronic synaptic devices present a high degree of uniformity for the emula-tion of various essential biological synaptic functions including short-term potentiation(STP),long-term potentiation(LTP),long-term depression(LTD),spike-rate-dependent plasticity(SRDP),and spike-timing-dependent plasticity(STDP).A higher recognition accuracy of∼92%is attained for pattern recognition using the modified National Institute of Standards and Technology(MNIST)handwritten digits,which is attributed to the enhanced linearity and higher uniformity of LTP/LTD characteristics.

文摘The mineralization process of microbial-induced calcium carbonate precipitation(MICP)is influenced by many factors,and the uniformity of the calcium carbonate precipitation has become the main focus and challenge for MICP technology.In this study,the uniformity of the saturated calcareous sand treated with MICP was in-vestigated through one-dimensional calcareous sand column tests and model tests.The coefficient of variation was employed in one-dimensional sand column tests to investigate the impact of injection rate,cementation solution concentration,and number of injection cycles on the uniformity of the MICP treatment.Additionally,model tests were conducted to investigate the impact of injection pressure and methods on the treatment range and uniformity under three-dimensional seepage conditions.Test results demonstrate that the reinforcement strength and uniformity are significantly influenced by the injection rate of the cementation solution,with a rate of 3 mL/min,yielding a favorable treatment effect.Excessive concentration of the cementation solution can lead to significant non-uniformity and a reduction in the compressive strength of MICP-treated samples.Conversely,excessively low concentrations may result in decreased bonding efficiency.Among the four considered con-centrations,0.5 mol/L and 1 mol/L exhibit superior reinforcing effects.The morphological development of calcareous sandy foundation reinforcement is associated with the spatial distribution pattern of the bacterial solution,exhibiting a relatively larger reinforcement area in proximity to the lower region of the model and a gradually decreasing range towards the upper part.Under three-dimensional seepage conditions,in addition to the non-uniform radial cementation along the injection pipe,there is also vertical heterogeneity of cementation along the length of the injection pipe due to gravitational effects,resulting in preferential deposition of calcium carbonate at the lower section,The application of injection pressure and a double-pipe circulation injection method can mitigate the accumulation of bacterial solution and cementation solution at the bottom,thereby improving the reinforcement range and uniformity.

文摘Ceramic hollow spheres have great potential for deep-sea applications.However,the irregularity of the conventional molding process,among other reasons,results in low wall thickness uniformity of hollow spheres.To solve this problem,in this work,we developed a biaxial rotation grouting process for deep-sea ceramic hollow buoyancy spheres,which improves the drawbacks of the traditional rotary grouting method that results in poor wall thickness uniformity of the hollow spheres due to its irregular rotational processing.In this paper,an experimental study was carried out to investigate the effects of different rotational methods,rotational speeds,rotational time,solid phase content,etc.on the wall thickness uniformity of ceramic hollow spheres.The results show that the hollow floating balls prepared by the biaxial rotation method have the lowest wall thickness standard deviation(0.04)when the rotation speed is 60 rpm,the molding time is 8 min,and the solid phase content is 70 wt%.After the hydrostatic pressure test of 120 MPa,the hydrostatic compressive strength of hollow spheres prepared by the biaxial rotation method was increased by 31.67%compared with that of the traditional process.

文摘Polyvinylidene fluoride(PVDF)/garnet composite polymer electrolytes(CPEs) have shown great potential in the development of solid-state lithium metal batteries(SSLMBs) due to their excellent flexibility, high ionic conductivity and superior mechanical strength.However, uneven dispersion of garnet fillers in CPEs would lead to deterioration of lithium metal batteries(LMBs) performance and severely limit their widespread application. Considering the rapidly growing research of addressing above-mentioned issue, herein, recent progress in the design and fabrication of uniformly dispersed fillers in PVDF/garnet CPEs for high-performance SSLMBs is summarized. We firstly analyze the mechanism for the aggregation of inorganic fillers, and provide a detailed introduction to the strategies for solving the uneven dispersion of nanoparticles in solid electrolytes. Moreover, we also comprehensively summarize their applications in PVDF/garnet electrolytes and their impact on the electrochemical performance of SSLMBs. Finally, the application challenges and future prospects of PVDF/garnet CPEs in SSLMBs were also proposed to promote their further development. It is anticipated that this review could inspire ongoing research interest in rational designing and fabricating novel CPEs for high-performance SSLMBs.
