In this paper we utilize 3D physical seismic modeling experiments. A 3D channel sand body physical seismic model is constructed and two acquisition systems are designed with wide azimuth （16 lines） and narrow azimuth （8 lines） to model 3D seismic data acquisition and processing seismic work flows. From analysis of migrated time slice data with high quality and small size, we conclude that when the overlying layers are smooth and lateral velocities have little change, both wide and narrow azimuth observation systems in 3D acquisition can be used for obtaining high precision imaging and equivalent resolution of the channel sand body.展开更多

Before and during compression, the median and radial nerves were visualized in both groups by 3 Tesla MR imaging, using high resolutional(2.5 mm slice thickness) axial T2-weighted sequences. RESULTS: In group A, Visual analog pain scale was 5.4 ± 2.2 compared to results of group B, 2.9 ± 2.5, showing a significant difference(P = 0.028). FPS levels in group A were 2.6 ± 0.9 compared to levels in group B 1.6 ± 1, showing a significant difference(P = 0.039). Results related to measureable effect on median and radial nerve function were equal in both groups. No undue pressure signs on the skin, redness or nerve damage occurred in either group. There was no significant difference in the diameters of the nerves without and under compression in either group on T2 weighted images.CONCLUSION: Based on our results, no differences between narrow and wide tourniquets were identified. Silicon ring tourniquets can be regarded as safe for short time application.展开更多

Definitions of wide/narrow ice-resistant conical structures, according to ice-induced vibration, are directly related to structure width, sea ice parameters, and clearing modes of broken ice. This paper proposes three clearing modes for broken ice acting on conical structures: complete clearing, temporary ice pile up, and ice pile up. In this paper, sea ice clearing modes and the formation requirements of dynamic ice force are analyzed to explore criteria determining wide/narrow ice-resistant conical structures. According to the direct measurement data of typical prototype structures, quantitative criteria of the ratio of a cone width at waterline(D) to sea ice thickness(h) is proposed. If the ratio is less than 30(narrow conical structure), broken ice is completely cleared and a dynamic ice force is produced; however, if the ratio is larger than 50(wide conical structure), the front stacking of broken ice or dynamic ice force will not occur.展开更多

文摘Ultra-narrow-band phosphors have gained widespread applications in lighting and displays to enhance brightness and improve color saturation.Typical phosphor designs employ UCr_(4)C_(4)-type compounds and designing new narrow-band phosphors with high color purity is a major challenge.Here,we explored a Eu^(2+)-doped Ba_(5)GeO_(4)Br_(6)phosphor,showing a narrow-band blue emission(λ_(em)=436 nm) excitation at the near-ultraviolet light with a full width at half maximum of 30.7 nm and high color purity of 96.6%.In addition,attractive cathodoluminescence characteristics were systematically analyzed by varying filament current(30-70 mA) and accelerating voltage(3-7 eV).Robust anti-degradation behavior and color point stability under continuous electron beam bombardment were confirmed.Given its excellent performance in photoluminescence and cathodoluminescence,application in wide color gamut displays appears promising.Using commercial phosphors β-SiAlON:Eu^(2+)and K_(2)SiF6:Mn^(4+)as green and red light co nverte rs respectively,and the title phosphor as the blue light converters,the fabricated w-LED exhibits a wide color gamut of 82% NTSC.

文摘Li–CO_(2) batteries are considered promising energy storage systems in extreme environments such as Mars;however,severe performance degradation will occur at a subzero temperature owning to the sluggish reaction kinetics.Herein,a photo-energized strategy adopting sustainable solar energy in wide working temperature range Li–CO_(2) battery was achieved with a binder-free MoS_(2)/carbon nanotube(CNT)photo-electrode as cathode.The unique layered structure and excellent photoelectric properties of MoS_(2) facilitate the abundant generation and rapid transfer of photo-excited carriers,which accelerate the CO_(2) reduction and Li_(2)CO_(3) decomposition upon illumination.The illuminated battery at room temperature exhibited high discharge voltage of 2.95 V and mitigated charge voltage of 3.27 V,attaining superior energy efficiency of 90.2%and excellent cycling stability of over 120 cycles.Even at an extremely low temperature of−30℃,the battery with same electrolyte can still deliver a small polarization of 0.45 V by the photoelectric and photothermal synergistic mechanism of MoS_(2)/CNT cathode.This work demonstrates the promising potential of the photo-energized wide working temperature range Li–CO_(2) battery in addressing the obstacle of charge overpotential and energy efficiency.
文摘BACKGROUND Intracranial blister-like microaneurysms are an extremely rare disease.Rupture of intracranial aneurysms can lead to subarachnoid hemorrhage(SAH).Patients with SAH may experience severe neurological symptoms,including severe headache,nausea,vomiting,transient or persistent loss of consciousness,limb weakness,and blurred vision.Ruptured aneurysms should be surgically treated as soon as possible.Intravascular electrocoagulation is becoming a promising treatment method for intracranial blister-like microaneurysms.The short-term follow-up results demonstrated that this method is safe and effective.This article presents a case of endovascular electrocoagulation for the treatment of a blisterlike microaneurysm.CASE SUMMARY This article reports the case of 71-year-old female patient with an intracranial aneurysm.The patient experienced a sudden headache with vomiting for 3 hours.Brain computed tomography(CT)scan showed a subarachnoid hemorrhage.She was diagnosed with rupture of an aneurysm and subarachnoid hemorrhage.The aneurysm was located in the choroidal segment of the right internal carotid artery.The size of the aneurysm was 2.00 mm×1.80 mm×1.97 mm,and the neck of the aneurysm was less than 0.5 mm wide.We successfully treated this aneurysm with endovascular electrocoagulation,and the patient was safely returned to the ward and discharged after subsequent supportive treatment.CT angiography reexamination 3 months after surgery revealed no contrast agent extravasation in the original lesion,with a good prognosis.CONCLUSION Endovascular electrocoagulation is an effective and safe method for the treatment of intracranial blister-like microaneurysms.

文摘Narrow backfill earth pressure estimation is applied to study the stability of supporting structures in the vicinity of existing buildings.Previous narrow backfill earth pressure studies have neglected seismic-unsaturated seepage multi-field coupling,resulting in inaccurate estimates.To address these deficiencies,this paper proposed a calculation method for seismic passive earth pressure in unsaturated narrow backfill,based on inclined thin-layer units.It considers the interlayer shear stress,arching effect,and the multi-field coupling of seismic-unsaturated seepage.Additionally,this paper includes a parametric sensitivity analysis.The outcomes indicate that the earthquake passive ground pressure of unsaturated narrow backfill can be reduced by increasing the aspect ratio,seismic acceleration coefficient,and unsaturation parameterα.It can also be reduced by decreasing the effective interior friction angle,soil cohesion,wallearth friction angle,and vertical discharge.Furthermore,for any width soil,lowering the elevation of the action point of passive thrust can be attained by raising the effective interior friction angle,wall-earth friction angle,and unsaturation parameterα.Reducing soil cohesion,seismic acceleration coefficient,and vertical discharge can also lower the height of the application point of passive thrust.

文摘Organic-inorganic hybrid solar cells consisting of organic conjugated materials and inorganic quantum dots(QDs)have been of great interest during the past two decades.However,it is still challenging to select desired organic functional materials for fabricating hybrid films to maximize their photovoltaic performance.Herein,we report the synthesis of three narrow bandgap non-fullerene conjugated polymers and further demonstrate the importance and impact of polymer crystallinity in tuning the organic-inorganic hybrid interface towards improved photovoltaic performance.In specific,we develop an organic-inorganic hybrid active layer using a newly synthesized polymer with relatively weaker crystallinity and FAPbI_(3)QDs,enabling complementary absorption and favorable interface/morphology for efficient charge separation and transport.The champion PCDOT-T/FAPbI_(3)QD hybrid device achieves a record-high efficiency of 13.11%based on the one-step coating organic/QD hybrid bulk heterojunction blend,which is significantly improved relative to the semi-crystalline polymer PYIT-based hybrid device(11.23%)and pristine QD(10.51%).We believe these findings would provide new insight into the organic/QD interface to construct desired hybrid films for high-performing optoelectronic applications.

文摘Mild electrocatalytic nitrate reduction reaction(NO_(3)RR),driven by renewable electricity,is regarded as a desirable strategy for green ammonia synthesis and simultaneous removal of nitrogen-containing environmental pollutants.In view of different supply voltages from renewable energy sources,developing costeffective and efficient electrocatalysts with a wide operating potential window is very meaningful for practical application.However,currently reported catalysts usually need to introduce noble metals to synergistically achieve wide-potential selective ammonia synthesis from nitrate.In this work,we present for the first time a dual-transition-metal electrocatalyst(Fe_(3)C-CuO_(x)@NC,x=0,1)with wide-potential-adaptability for highly selective nitrate reduction to ammonia.Such Fe_(3)C-CuO_(x)@NC with spatially separated CuO_(x)and noblemetal-like Fe_(3)C nanoparticles encapsulated with nitrogen-doped graphitized carbon,exhibits outstanding performance in NO_(3)RR with desirable NH_(3)Faraday efficiency of more than 90%over a wide potential ranging from-0.2 V vs.RHE to-0.6 V vs.RHE,comparable to the reported noble metal catalysts.Different from common tandem catalysis,the wide-potential high ammonia selectivity of Fe_(3)C-CuO_(x)@NC is domina ntly ascribed to the complementary enhancement between CuO_(x)and Fe_(3)C,fully supported by results of experiments and density function theory calculations.CuO_(x)exhibit highly intrinsic nitrate reduction to nitrite to compensate for the slow potential determination step(^(*)NO_(3)→^(*)NO_(3)H)of Fe_(3)C,while Fe_(3)C,besides behaving like noble metals to supply adequate active hydrogens,has both good adsorption and reduction abilities for nitrite species to ammonia.Moreover,Fe_(3)C partially stabilizes active Cu^(0)/Cu^(+)sites,and the unique carbon-layer enca psulation structure effectively prevents the agglomeration and corrosion of metal nanoparticles during the electrocatalysis,thus maintaining good cyclic stability.The Zn-NO_(3)^(-)battery assembled with Fe_(3)C-CuO_(x)@NC can reach a high power density of 5.2 mW cm^(-2)at a potential of 1.0 V vs.Zn,with an NH_(3)Faraday efficiency of 92.4%at a current of 8.0 mA,proving its potential practical application.This advance provides unique insights into complementary catalysis mechanisms on multiple metal sites in NO_(3)RR,and offers a reference for the design of other transition metal electrocatalysts matching with renewable electricity.

文摘A wide passband frequency selective surface(FSS)is proposed using a five-layer stacked structure.The proposed structure applies four layers of dielectric plates and five layers of metal patches to provide a passband and exhibits more stable frequency responses and lower insertion loss under wide-angle oblique incidence compared with the typical three-layer metal-dielectric structure.According to the simulation results,the proposed FSS can achieve a passband range of 1.7-2.7 GHz with an insertion loss of less than 0.5 d B and a relative bandwidth of 44.1%,and it can preserve stable transmission characteristics with the incident angle ranging from 0°to 45°.

文摘The high-speed reentry vehicle operates across a broad range of speeds and spatial domains,where optimal aerodynamic shapes for different speeds are contradictory.This makes it challenging for a single-Mach optimization design to meet aerodynamic performance requirements throughout the vehicle’s flight envelope.Additionally,the strong coupling between aerodynamics and control adds complexity,as fluctuations in aerodynamic parameters due to speed variations complicate control system design.To address these challenges,this study proposes an aerodynamic/control coupling optimization design approach.This method,based on aerodynamic optimization principles,incorporates active control technology,treating aerodynamic layout and control system design as primary components during the conceptual design phase.By integrating the design and evaluation of aerodynamics and control,the approach aims to reduce design iterations and enhance overall flight performance.The comprehensive design of the rotary reentry vehicle,using this optimization strategy,effectively balances performance at supersonic and hypersonic speeds.The results show that the integrated design model meets aerodynamic and control performance requirements over a broader range of Mach numbers,preventing performance degradation due to deviations from the design Mach number,and providing a practical solution for high-speed reentry vehicle design.
