By employing self-consistent field theory (SCFT) to calculate the phase diagrams of block copolymers, one can accurately predict their self-assembly behaviors, thus providing guidance for the fabrication of various novel structures. However, SCFT is highly sensitive to initial conditions because it finds the free energy minima through an iterative process. Consequently, constructing phase diagrams using SCFT typically requires predefined candidate structures based on the experience of researchers. Such experience-dependent strategies often miss some structures and thus result in inaccurate phase diagrams. Recently, artificial intelligence (AI) techniques have demonstrated significant potential across diverse fields of science and technology. By leveraging AI methods, it is possible to reduce reliance on human experience, thereby constructing more robust and reliable phase diagrams. In this work, we demonstrate how to combine AI with SCFT to automatically search for self-assembled structures of block copolymers and construct phase diagrams. Our aim is to realize automatic construction of block copolymer phase diagrams while minimizing reliance on human prior knowledge.展开更多

When pH2, stable regions of V3+, VO2+ and VO2+ exist in the stable region of TiO2. The pH values of stable regions of vanadium and titanium decrease and redox potentials become more positive with the temperature increasing. Vanadium and titanium could be separated by one-step leaching based on thermodynamics. The experiment results of pressure acid leaching of converter slag show that leaching rates of vanadium and titanium are 96.87% and 8.76% respectively, at 140 ℃ of temperature, 0.5 MPa of oxygen partial pressure, 0.055-0.075mm of particle size, 15:1 of liquid to solid ratio, 120 min of leaching time, 500 r/min of stirring speed and 200 g/L of initial acid concentration. Vanadium and titanium could be selectively separated in the pressure acid leaching process, and the experiment result is in agreement with thermodynamic calculation result.展开更多

Two different yield criteria of von Mises and Hill'48 were applied in this model. Mechanical properties of AZ31 magnesium alloy used in the prediction were obtained by uniaxial tensile tests and the Fields-Backofen equation was incorporated in the analysis. In addition, experimental FLDs of AZ31 were acquired by conducting rigid die swell test at different temperatures to verify the prediction. It is demonstrated from a comparison between the predicted and the experimental FLDs at 473 K and 523 K that the predicted results are influenced by the type of yield criterion used in the calculation, especially at lower temperatures. Furthermore, a better agreement between the predicted results and experimental data for AZ31 magnesium alloy sheet at warm temperatures was obtained when Hill'48 yield criterion was applied.展开更多

文摘Throughout the long development of the Silk Road,traditional medical techniques from various countries have continued to intersect and integrate,and traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)has also been transmitted to Eurasia via the Silk Road.In the process of TCM knowledge dissemination,the tangible pulse diagnosis diagrams(脉诊图)have been collected in works such as Tānksūqnāmah(《伊利汗中国科技珍宝书》Ilkhanate Chinese Science and Technology Treasure Book),Specimen Medicinae Sinicae(《中医指南》A Guide to Traditional Chinese Medicine),and Die Chinesische Medizin(《中华医学》Chinese Medicine),and has become an important carrier and cultural symbol of pulse diagnostics,integrating into Eurasian medicine.The dissemination of TCM pulse diagnosis and the pulse diagnosis diagrams are closely related to Nan Jing(《难经》The Classic of Difficult Issues)and the pulse studies of the Jin dynasty medical scholar,Wang Shuhe(王叔和).The study found that the pulse diagnosis diagrams had distinct characteristics in its transmission to the West in different eras,and they are analyzed from the perspectives of“communicators(translators)”,“translation characteristics”,“cultural background”,“inheritance system”,revealing multiple integrations and transformations of ancient TCM pulse diagnosis diagrams in the East-West exchange and mutual learning.The pulse diagnosis diagrams have gradually become a symbol of TCM diagnostic methods,forming an inseparable link between TCM and pulse diagnosis in the minds of scholars and the public in the East and West.

文摘The self-assembly of block copolymers serves as an effective approach for fabricating various periodic ordered nanostructures. By employing self-consistent field theory (SCFT) to calculate the phase diagrams of block copolymers, one can accurately predict their self-assembly behaviors, thus providing guidance for the fabrication of various novel structures. However, SCFT is highly sensitive to initial conditions because it finds the free energy minima through an iterative process. Consequently, constructing phase diagrams using SCFT typically requires predefined candidate structures based on the experience of researchers. Such experience-dependent strategies often miss some structures and thus result in inaccurate phase diagrams. Recently, artificial intelligence (AI) techniques have demonstrated significant potential across diverse fields of science and technology. By leveraging AI methods, it is possible to reduce reliance on human experience, thereby constructing more robust and reliable phase diagrams. In this work, we demonstrate how to combine AI with SCFT to automatically search for self-assembled structures of block copolymers and construct phase diagrams. Our aim is to realize automatic construction of block copolymer phase diagrams while minimizing reliance on human prior knowledge.

文摘Accurate identification of natural gas origin is fundamental to the theoretical research on natural gas geosciences and the exploration deployment and resource potential assessment of oil and gas.Since the 1970s,Academician Dai Jinxing has developed a comprehensive system for natural gas origin determination,grounded in geochemical theory and practice,and based on the integrated analysis of stable isotopic compositions,molecular composition,light hydrocarbon fingerprints,and geological context.This paper systematically reviews the core framework established by him and his team according to related references and application results,focusing on the conceptual design and technical pathways of key diagnostic diagrams such asδ^(13)C_(1)-C_(1)/(C_(2)+C_(3)),δ^(13)C_(1)-δ^(13)C_(2)-δ^(13)C_(3),δ^(13)CCO_(2)versus CO_(2)content,and the C7light hydrocarbon ternary plot.We evaluate the applicability and innovation of these tools in distinguishing between oil-type gas,coal-derived gas,microbial gas,and abiogenic gas,as well as in identifying mixed-source gases and multi-stage charging systems.The findings suggest that this identification system has significantly advanced natural gas geochemical interpretation in China,shifting from single-indicator analyses to multi-parameter integration and from qualitative assessments to systematic graphical identification,and has also exerted considerable influence on international research in natural gas geochemistry.The structured overview of the development trajectory of natural gas origin discrimination methodologies provides a technical support for natural gas geological theory and practice and offers a scientific foundation for the academic evaluation and application of related achievements.

文摘Thermodynamic optimization of the AF-BeF_(2)(A=K,Rb,and Cs),KF-CsF,and RbF-CsF systems was performed within the framework of phase diagrams calculation.The model parameters were optimized based on experimental data and theoretically calculated values.The results show that the thermodynamically calculated values for the AF-BeF_(2)(A=K,Rb,and Cs),KF-CsF,and RbF-CsF systems agree well with the experimental data.Next,a set of reliable and self-consistent thermodynamic databases was built,and the liquidus projections and invariant points of the sub-ternary systems of the KF-RbF-CsF-BeF_(2)system were calculated.Furthermore,the melting temperature with the corresponding composition was predicted using the phase diagrams calculation technique,and the radial distribution functions,coordination numbers,angular distribution functions,and diffusion coefficients of the quaternary KF-RbF-CsF-BeF_(2)system were calculated using ab initio molecular dynamics.The results show that the quaternary KF-RbF-CsF-BeF_(2)system with the proportion 3.50-28.92-21.78-45.80 mol%or 1.80-35.42-52.40-10.38 mol%is one of the most promising candidate coolants for molten salt reactors in terms of thermodynamics and kinetics.This work provides direct guidelines for the screening and optimization of molten salts in the nuclear energy field.
文摘Lithium-sulfur battery(LSB)has attracted worldwide attention owing to its overwhelmingly high theoretical energy density of 2600Wh/kg due to the unique 16-electron electrochemical conversion reaction of elemental sulfur(S_(8))[1].However,the electrochemical conversion reaction of S_(8) is an exceedingly complex process that involves the generation of multiple intermediates(e.g.,lithium polysulfides(LiPSs))and multiphase transitions[1,2].Currently,the mechanistic investigations of the electrochemical conversion reaction of S_(8) upon discharging a LSB cell heavily rely on electrochemical titration and spectroscopic techniques[3].Nevertheless,the considerable complexity and intrinsic instability of the LSB system present substantial obstacles to obtaining accurate information for all sulfur-containing species,which significantly obstructs in-depth elucidation of the fundamental discharge mechanism of LSB[3,4].

文摘To analyze the thermodynamic characteristics of leaching process of converter slag, φ-pH diagram of V-Ti-H2O system at oxygen partial pressure of 0.5 MPa, ionic mass concentration of 0.1 mol/kg and temperatures ranging from 60 to 200 ℃ was obtained by recently published critically assessed standard Gibbs energies and activity coefficients of various species. When pH2, stable regions of V3+, VO2+ and VO2+ exist in the stable region of TiO2. The pH values of stable regions of vanadium and titanium decrease and redox potentials become more positive with the temperature increasing. Vanadium and titanium could be separated by one-step leaching based on thermodynamics. The experiment results of pressure acid leaching of converter slag show that leaching rates of vanadium and titanium are 96.87% and 8.76% respectively, at 140 ℃ of temperature, 0.5 MPa of oxygen partial pressure, 0.055-0.075mm of particle size, 15:1 of liquid to solid ratio, 120 min of leaching time, 500 r/min of stirring speed and 200 g/L of initial acid concentration. Vanadium and titanium could be selectively separated in the pressure acid leaching process, and the experiment result is in agreement with thermodynamic calculation result.

文摘The thermodynamics in zinc hydrometallurgical process was studied using a chemical equilibrium modeling code(GEMS) to predict the zinc solubility and construct the species distribution and predominance diagrams for the Zn(Ⅱ)-NH3-H2O and Zn(Ⅱ)-NH3-Cl--H2O system.The zinc solubilities in ammoniacal solutions were also measured with equilibrium experiments,which agree well with the predicted values.The distribution and predominance diagrams show that ammine and hydroxyl ammine complexes are the main aqueous Zn species,Zn(NH3)24-is predominant in weak alkaline solution for both Zn(Ⅱ)-NH3-H2O and Zn(Ⅱ)-NH3-Cl--H2O systems.In Zn(Ⅱ)-NH3-Cl--H2O system,the ternary complexes containing ammonia and chloride increase the zinc solubility in neutral solution.There are three zinc compounds,Zn(OH)2,Zn(OH)1.6Cl0.4 and Zn(NH3)2Cl2,on which the zinc solubility depends,according to the total ammonia,chloride and zinc concentration.These thermodynamic diagrams show the effects of ammonia,chloride and zinc concentration on the zinc solubility,which can provide thermodynamic references for the zinc hydrometallurgy.

文摘A theoretical prediction on forming limit diagram(FLD) of AZ31 magnesium alloy sheet was developed at warm temperatures based on the M-K theory. Two different yield criteria of von Mises and Hill'48 were applied in this model. Mechanical properties of AZ31 magnesium alloy used in the prediction were obtained by uniaxial tensile tests and the Fields-Backofen equation was incorporated in the analysis. In addition, experimental FLDs of AZ31 were acquired by conducting rigid die swell test at different temperatures to verify the prediction. It is demonstrated from a comparison between the predicted and the experimental FLDs at 473 K and 523 K that the predicted results are influenced by the type of yield criterion used in the calculation, especially at lower temperatures. Furthermore, a better agreement between the predicted results and experimental data for AZ31 magnesium alloy sheet at warm temperatures was obtained when Hill'48 yield criterion was applied.

文摘The mathematical topological rule was proposed to plot the predominance area diagram.Based on the phase rules,the components of In-S-O system were analyzed and the coexisting points of three condensed phases were determined.Combined with the topological rules and thermody namic calculation,four relation diagrams between the coexisting points of three condensed phases,which were denoted as α,β stable plane-topological diagram and unstable plane-topological diagram,were plotted for the In-S-O system.The results show that α stable plane topological diagram is in accordance with the predominance area diagram of In-S-O system plotted by traditional methods,which indicates that the new method is feasible to plot the predominance area diagram of In-S-O system.Meanwhile,β unstable plane-topological diagram can be used to elucidate the indium production with the bath smelting process.

文摘After introducing the supply chain default risk and its causes,based on the literature review of the evaluation methods of supply chain risks,a new evaluation method called the fuzzy influence diagram which combines fuzzy sets with influence diagram theory and considers the interaction among risk factors is proposed.Furthermore,an evaluation model of the supply chain default risk is established based on the research of default risk evaluation and the fuzzy influence diagram.First,the model takes the loss of risk as a valuable node,risk factors as random nodes,drawing a risk analysis influence diagram.Then,three kinds of fuzzy sets are defined,including state fuzzy sets,probabilistic fuzzy sets and a relation fuzzy matrix.Finally,by using the fuzzy algorithm to evaluate nodes,the probability of risk occurrence and the degrees of risk loss are obtained.On the basis of the model,an instance application is used to prove its utility and effectiveness.
