文摘Antibiotic resistance genes(ARGs) are recognized as a primary threat to the sustainability of environment and human health in the 21^(st) century.Nanomaterials(NMs) have attracted substantial attention due to their unique dimensions and structures.Unfortunately,emerging evidence suggests that NMs may facilitate the transmission of ARGs.It is crucial to elucidate how NMs affect the evolution and dissemination of ARGs.The current review comprehensively examines the role of NMs in the widespread transmission of ARGs in aquatic environments and the underlying mechanisms involved in the process.It aims to clarify the effects and mechanisms of NMs on the horizontal gene transfer processes that are associated with ARGs,including the enhancement of cell membrane permeability,the formation of nanopores on membranes,promotion of mutagenesis,and the generation of reactive oxygen species(ROSs).Furthermore,the trade-off between the removal of ARGs and horizontal transfer has been elucidated.The review aspires to guide future research directions,advance knowledge on the implications of NMs in the field of ARGs' transmission,and provide a theoretical foundation for the development of safer and more effective applications of NMs.

文摘The atmospheric corrosion behavior of 510L low alloy steel subjected to acid-cleaned surface(ACS)and eco-pickled surface(EPS)treatments is systematically examined.After 1 year of atmospheric exposure,both ACS-and EPS-treated samples demonstrate protective ability index values exceeding 2,indicating robust protective properties of the developed rust layers.The corrosion rates of ACS-and EPS-treated samples are similar.During the initial corrosion stage,γ-FeOOH emerges as the dominant corrosion product.With the prolonged atmospheric exposure,γ-FeOOH content progressively decreases through phase transformation into thermodynamically stableα-FeOOH and densely structured Fe_(3)O_(4),which markedly suppresses the corrosion of the steel.Notably,the corrosion rate of the coated EPS sample is obviously lower than that of the coated ACS counterpart,which is ascribed to the distinctive micro-roughness of EPS-treated surfaces that promote mechanical interlocking with protective coatings.

文摘In real-world autonomous driving tests,unexpected events such as pedestrians or wild animals suddenly entering the driving path can occur.Conducting actual test drives under various weather conditions may also lead to dangerous situations.Furthermore,autonomous vehicles may operate abnormally in bad weather due to limitations of their sensors and GPS.Driving simulators,which replicate driving conditions nearly identical to those in the real world,can drastically reduce the time and cost required for market entry validation;consequently,they have become widely used.In this paper,we design a virtual driving test environment capable of collecting and verifying SiLS data under adverse weather conditions using multi-source images.The proposed method generates a virtual testing environment that incorporates various events,including weather,time of day,and moving objects,that cannot be easily verified in real-world autonomous driving tests.By setting up scenario-based virtual environment events,multi-source image analysis and verification using real-world DCUs(Data Concentrator Units)with V2X-Car edge cloud can effectively address risk factors that may arise in real-world situations.We tested and validated the proposed method with scenarios employing V2X communication and multi-source image analysis.

文摘Oxygen vacancy(Vo)engineering has been recognized as one of the most effective strategies for enhancing the photocatalytic CO_(2) conversion performance of metal oxides,as it can simultaneously facilitate photogenerated charge carrier separation efficiency and provide additional surface reaction sites.However,the wide application of Vo engineering in photocatalysis are limited by its poor stability,owing to the easy recovery of these vacancy defects by atmospheric oxygen.Herein,we develop an indium(In)doping strategy to regulate the coordination environment in CeO_(2) with abundant Vo(CeO_(2-x)),thereby enhance its stability during photocatalytic CO_(2) conversion.Confirmed by positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy(PALS),In dopants combine with Vo by substituting for part of Ce^(4+),forming In^(3+)-Vo complexes that effectively inhibit the formation of unstable va-cancy clusters.Such In^(3+)-Vo complexes can also reduce the energy required for formation of the CO products.Therefore,the optimized In-doped CeO_(2-x) exhibits excellent photocatalytic CO_(2) conversion performance,with a CO yield of 301.6μmol⋅g^(-1) after 5 h of light irradiation,and maintain high activity after four cycles of experiments.Comprehensive experimental and theoretical studies indicate that the introduction of In doping not only significantly improves the stability of Vo in CeO_(2-x),but also reconstruct the reaction kinetics of the CO_(2) conversion by forming In^(3+)-Vo complexes thus facilitating the overall reaction.

文摘As large,room-scale environments become increasingly common,their spatial complexity increases due to variable,unstructured elements.Consequently,demand for room-scale service robots is surging,yet most technologies remain corridor-centric,and autonomous navigation in expansive rooms becomes unstable even around static obstacles.Existing approaches face several structural limitations.These include the labor-intensive requirement for large-scale object annotation and continual retraining,as well as the vulnerability of vanishing point or linebased methods when geometric cues are insufficient.In addition,the high cost of LiDAR and 3D perception errors caused by limited wall cues and dense interior clutter further limit their effectiveness.To address these challenges,we propose a zero-shot vision-based algorithm for robust 3D map reconstruction in geometry-deficient room-scale environments.The algorithm operates in three layers:Layer 1 performs dimension-wise boundary detection;Layer 2 estimates vanishing points,refines the precise perspective space,and extracts a floor mask;and Layer 3 conducts 3D spatial mapping and obstacle recognition.The proposed method was experimentally validated across various geometric-deficient room-scale environments,including lobbies,seminar rooms,conference rooms,cafeterias,and museums—demonstrating its ability to reliably reconstruct 3D maps and accurately recognize obstacles.Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm achieved an F1 score of 0.959 in precision perspective space detection and 0.965 in floor mask extraction.For obstacle recognition and classification,it obtained F1 scores of 0.980 in obstacle absent areas,0.913 in solid obstacle environments,and 0.939 in skeleton-type sparse obstacle environments,confirming its high precision and reliability in geometric-deficient room-scale environments.

文摘Federated Learning(FL)provides an effective framework for efficient processing in vehicular edge computing.However,the dynamic and uncertain communication environment,along with the performance variations of vehicular devices,affect the distribution and uploading processes of model parameters.In FL-assisted Internet of Vehicles(IoV)scenarios,challenges such as data heterogeneity,limited device resources,and unstable communication environments become increasingly prominent.These issues necessitate intelligent vehicle selection schemes to enhance training efficiency.Given this context,we propose a new scenario involving FL-assisted IoV systems under dynamic and uncertain communication conditions,and develop a dynamic interval multi-objective optimization algorithm to jointly optimize various factors including training experiments,system energy consumption,and bandwidth utilization to meet multi-criteria resource optimization requirements.For the problem at hand,we design a dynamic interval multi-objective optimization algorithm based on interval overlap detection.Simulation results demonstrate that our method outperforms other solutions in terms of accuracy,training cost,and server utilization.It effectively enhances training efficiency under wireless channel environments while rationally utilizing bandwidth resources,thus possessing significant scientific value and application potential in the field of IoV.
文摘To assess the effectiveness of vaccination in contaminated environments,this study introduces a modeling framework that encompasses two transmission routes,namely direct human-to-human contact and indirect human-to-environment contact,as well as the implementation of new M72/AS01_(E)vaccine.Motivated by this,a coupled age-structured tuberculosis(TB)model is proposed.Its well-posedness requirement is verified using the integrated semigroup theory.Furthermore,this study presents a comprehensive analysis of threshold dynamics associated with the proposed model.Specifically,the global stability of the disease-free and positive steady states is demonstrated by employing Lyapunov functionals.Lastly,the effects of the vaccination with M72/AS01_(E)and contaminated environments on TB control are numerically simulated.Experimental results indicate that high concentrations of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in contaminated environments may somewhat impede TB control efforts,but that large-scale deployment of new vaccine could significantly reduce the prevalence of TB.

文摘In order to improve the concurrent access performance of the web-based spatial computing system in cluster,a parallel scheduling strategy based on the multi-core environment is proposed,which includes two levels of parallel processing mechanisms.One is that it can evenly allocate tasks to each server node in the cluster and the other is that it can implement the load balancing inside a server node.Based on the strategy,a new web-based spatial computing model is designed in this paper,in which,a task response ratio calculation method,a request queue buffer mechanism and a thread scheduling strategy are focused on.Experimental results show that the new model can fully use the multi-core computing advantage of each server node in the concurrent access environment and improve the average hits per second,average I/O Hits,CPU utilization and throughput.Using speed-up ratio to analyze the traditional model and the new one,the result shows that the new model has the best performance.The performance of the multi-core server nodes in the cluster is optimized;the resource utilization and the parallel processing capabilities are enhanced.The more CPU cores you have,the higher parallel processing capabilities will be obtained.

文摘Unbalanced energy consumption distribution caused by the concentration of facilities and population topples the natural energy equilibrium of a city and causes environmental problems such as urban tropical night,heat island phenomenon,global warming deterioration.Therefore,to secure eco-friendliness and sustainability of a city,it is necessary to introduce measures to alleviate the unequal distribution phenomenon of urban energy consumption from the city planning stage.For this purpose,the first step is to understand the current energy environment.The urban energy environment is affected by many factors in addition to gathering of buildings.Therefore,there is a limit to fully understanding advanced urban energy environment with only simple statistical urban information management technique.Research on methods of analyzing urban energy environment through simulation of recent urban scale is underway.There is not enough discussion about basic informaion databases for environmental analysis simulation of urban energy.This study presents a method using GIS(geographic information system) and web-based environmental information database as a way to improve the simulation accuracy.First,environmental information factors used for urban simulation were derived,and a web-based environmental information database targeting Daegu metropolitan city of Korea was built.Then,the urban energy environment was analyzed on a trial basis by linking the database with GIS.
文摘This survey study aims to investigate the perceptions learners have of the character-learning strategies they employ when taking a web-based course in Chinese.The seven Likert-scale statements are included in the questionnaire to examine learners’opinions on the three character-learning strategies that are widely used in traditional campus courses.A total of 65 students who completed the beginner level‘Chinese Characters’web-based course at a university in Sweden completed the survey.The results suggest that students in web-based courses consider these three strategies to be just as helpful and effective as campus students;moreover,the more orthodox strategy-rote learning-is found to be the most popular among distance students.Furthermore,findings of this study provide insight into the limitations and advantages associated with a web-based course,and also the possible effect learners’age and gender may have on learning strategy preferences.
