Pore structural parameters including BET specific surface area （SBEr）, total pore volume （Vr） and average pore diameter （da） were measured and cal- culated as well as process parameters such as yield of char （CY） and burn-off （B）. The relationship between the pore structural parameters of the GAC from coal blend （BC-GAC） and the ones of the GACs from corresponding single coals （SC-GACs） was analyzed, in which an index, the relative error （δ）, was presented to define the bias between fitted values and experimental values of these parameters of the BC-GACs. The results show that the BC-GAC keeps qualitatively the pore structural features of the SC-GACs; as concerned as the quantitative relationship, the pore structural parameters of the BC-GAC from coal blend consisting of non-caking coals can be obtained by adding proportionally the pore structural parameters of the SC-GACs with a less than 10%. Meanwhile, for the BC-GAC from coal blend containing weak caking bituminous coal, the δ increases up to 25% and the experimental pore size distribution differs greatly from the fitted one.展开更多

Using this empirical fraction, it proposes a new formulation of the additivity rule. Employing the new additivity rule, it calculates the total cross sections of electron scattering by C2H4, C6H6, C6H14 and C8H18 over the energy range from 50 to 5000eV. In order to exclude the calculation deviations caused by solving the radial Schrodinger equation of electron scattering by atoms, here the atomic cross sections are derived from the experimental total cross section results of simple molecules （H2, O2, CO） via the inversion algorithm. The quantitative total cross sections are compared with those obtained by experiments and other theories, and good agreement is obtained over a wide energy range, even at energy of several tens of eV.展开更多

In this paper, we consider two simple tests of additivity: an adaptation of Tukey’s one degree of freedom test and a nonparametric version of Rao’s score test. While the Tukey-type test can detect most forms of the local non-additivity at the parametric rate of O(n-1/2), the score test is consistent for all alternative at a nonparametric rate. The asymptotic distribution of these test statistics is derived under both the null and local alternative hypotheses. A simulation study is conducted to compare their finite-sample performances with some existing kernel-based tests. The score test is found to have a good overall performance.展开更多

Herein, to address the structural instability of perovskites, we introduced a polymer additive, poly-L-lysine hydrobromide(PLL), into the perovskite precursor to promote perovskite crystal growth, thereby constructing a stable crystal structure. The results show that the introduction of PLL modulates the colloidal aggregation state in the precursor solution, provides longer time for growth of perovskite and successfully realizes the formation of large-sized perovskite films with high crystallinity. More importantly, owing to its hydrophobic long-chain structure and the widespread distribution of C=O and NH on the chain, PLL firmly locks the perovskite crystals, enhancing their structural stability while blocking the intrusion of external factors such as water molecules, significantly enhances the overall stability of the device. The results show that the PLL-based PSC has negligible hysteresis and its PCE is improved from 22.20% to 23.66%. while the PLL-modified perovskite films and devices demonstrate excellent thermal and environmental stability. These findings highlight PLL as a promising additive for optimizing perovskite crystallization, offering guidance for fabricating efficient and stable photovoltaic devices.展开更多

文摘Taking into consideration the changes of the geometric shielding effect in a molecule as the energy of incident electrons varies, this paper presents an empirical fraction, which depends on the energy of incident electrons, the target＇s molecular dimension and the atomic and electronic numbers in the molecule. Using this empirical fraction, it proposes a new formulation of the additivity rule. Employing the new additivity rule, it calculates the total cross sections of electron scattering by C2H4, C6H6, C6H14 and C8H18 over the energy range from 50 to 5000eV. In order to exclude the calculation deviations caused by solving the radial Schrodinger equation of electron scattering by atoms, here the atomic cross sections are derived from the experimental total cross section results of simple molecules （H2, O2, CO） via the inversion algorithm. The quantitative total cross sections are compared with those obtained by experiments and other theories, and good agreement is obtained over a wide energy range, even at energy of several tens of eV.

文摘This study was to compare the estimates of basal endogenous losses(BEL)of amino acids(AA)determined by 3 methods including feeding a nitrogen-free diet(NFD)or a low-casein diet(LCD,containing casein at 30 g/kg diet)or using the regression method.Another objective was to investigate whether the ileal AA digestibility of corn calculated from a casein-supplemented corn diet is additive for a cornsoybean meal(SBM)mixed diet in broilers.On d 31 of age,168 Ross 308 male broilers were assigned to 8 dietary treatments with 6 replicates in a randomized complete block design.An NFD and 3 diets containing 30,60,or 90 g/kg of casein were formulated to determine the BEL of AA and ileal AA digestibility of casein.The other 4 diets consisted of a corn diet,SBM diet,casein-supplemented corn diet,and corn-SBM mixed diet.On d 35 of age,digesta from the distal section of the ileum were collected.The BEL of AA in birds fed the LCD were greater(P<0.05)than those of the NFD and the regression method.There were no differences in the BEL of AA determined between the NFD and the regression method.Apparent ileal digestibility(AID)and standardized ileal digestibility(SID)of AA for corn calculated from the casein-supplemented corn diet were greater(P<0.05)than those of the corn diet.The predicted AID of Thr in the corn-SBM mixed diet based on the AID of AA for corn in the corn diet was lower(P<0.05)than the measured AID.However,the predicted AID of AA in the mixed diet based on the AID of AA for corn in the casein-supplemented corn diet did not differ from the measured AID.The predicted SID of AA in the mixed diet did not differ from the measured SID irrespective of casein supplementation.In conclusion,feeding an NFD or using the regression method yields similar BEL of AA,but not feeding an LCD.Casein supplementation in the corn diet increases the ileal AA digestibility for corn,which is additive for the corn-SBM mixed diet.

文摘Regression splines are often used for fitting nonparametric functions, and they work especially well for additivity models. In this paper, we consider two simple tests of additivity: an adaptation of Tukey’s one degree of freedom test and a nonparametric version of Rao’s score test. While the Tukey-type test can detect most forms of the local non-additivity at the parametric rate of O(n-1/2), the score test is consistent for all alternative at a nonparametric rate. The asymptotic distribution of these test statistics is derived under both the null and local alternative hypotheses. A simulation study is conducted to compare their finite-sample performances with some existing kernel-based tests. The score test is found to have a good overall performance.

文摘Nitrogen(N)enrichment has resulted in widespread alteration of grassland ecosystem processes and functions mainly through disturbance in soil enzyme activities.However,we lack a comprehensive understanding of how N deposition affects specific key soil enzymes that mediate plant-soil feedback of grassland.Here,with a meta-analysis on 1446 cases from field observations in China,we show that N deposition differently affects soil enzymes associated with soil biochemical processes.Specifically,N-promoted C,N,and P-acquiring hydrolase activities significantly increased by 8.73%,7.67%,and 8.69%,respectively,related to an increase in microbial-specific enzyme secretion.The increased relative N availability and soil acidification were two potential mechanisms accounting for the changes in soil enzyme activities with N enrichment.The mixed N addition in combination of NH_(4)NO_(3) and urea showed greater stimulation effect on soil enzyme activities.However,the high rate and long-term N addition tended to weaken the positive responses of soil C-,Nand P-acquiring hydrolase activities to N enrichment.Spatially increased mean annual precipitation and temperature primarily promoted the positive effects of N enrichment on N-and P-acquiring hydrolase activities,and the stimulation of C-and N-acquiring hydrolase activities by N enrichment was intensified with the increase in soil depth.Finally,multimodal inference showed that grassland type was the most important regulator of responses of microbial C,N,and P-acquiring hydrolase activities to N enrichment.This meta-analysis provides a comprehensive insight into understanding the key role of N enrichment in shaping soil enzyme activities of grassland ecosystems.

文摘AA6061 is a widely used aluminum alloy with significant applications in the aerospace and automotive industries.Despite its popularity,the utilization of additively manufactured AA6061 through the laser powder bed fusion(LPBF)process has been hindered by the pronounced formation of pores and cracks during rapid solidification.This study quantitatively investigated defects,including pores and cracks,and microstructures,including texture,grain size,subgrain structure,and precipitates,of LPBF-manufactured AA6061 across a broad spectrum of laser power and speed combinations.A high relative density of more than 99%was achieved with a low-power and low-speed condition,specifically 200 W and 100 mm s−1,with minimal cracks.Large pores,akin to or exceeding melt pool dimensions,emerged under either low or high energy densities,driven by the lack of fusion and vaporization/denudation mechanisms,re-spectively.Solidification cracks,confirmed by the fractography,were propagated along grain boundaries and are highly dependent on laser scanning speed.Elevated power and speed exhibited finer grain size with refined subgrain cellular structures and increased precipitates at interdendritic regions.The cooling rate and thermal gradient estimated from thermal analytical solutions explain the microstructures’char-acteristics.Nano-sized Si-Fe-Mg enriched precipitates are confirmed in both as-built and heat-treated conditions,whereas T6 heat treatment promotes a uniform distribution with coarsening of those precipi-tates.The low-power and low-speed conditions demonstrated the highest yield strength,consistent with defect levels.A minimum of 102.3%increase in yield strength with reduced ductility was observed after heat treatment for all examined conditions.This work sheds light on printing parameters to mitigate the formation of pores and cracks in additively manufactured AA6061,proposing a process window for op-timized fabrication and highlighting the potential for enhanced material properties and reduced defects through process control.

文摘Al-Cu-Mn alloys are widely used to produce automobile components like cylinder heads and engine blocks because of their capability to retain excellent thermal and mechanical characteristics at high temperatures.However,the Al-Cu-Mn-based alloys demonstrate restricted fluidity,leading to casting defects such as shrinkage and incomplete filling.This research investigated the microstructure and fluidity of Al-4.7Cu-1.0Mn-0.5Mg(wt%)alloy with minor cerium(Ce)addition.The as-cast alloys predominantly compriseα-Al matrix,accompanied by the presence of Al_(2)Cu,Al_(6)Mn,and Al_(8)Cu_(4)Ce phases.The influence of adding Ce on the fluidity of the Al-4.7Cu-1.0Mn-0.5Mg alloy was investigated using a trispiral fluidity test mold in this research.The findings suggest that the addition of Ce within the range of 0.1 wt%to 0.5 wt%in the Al-4.7Cu-1.0Mn-0.5Mg alloy results in an enhancement in fluidity.Specifically,the alloy containing 0.4 wt%Ce exhibits a significant increase in fluidity distance,from 349.7 to 485.7 mm.This improvement can be attributed to the reduction in viscosity,the refinement of secondary dendrite arm spacing,and the modification of secondary phase particles.However,a higher concentration of Ce leads to a decrease in fluidity length,potentially due to the formation of Al_(8)Cu_(4)Ce.

文摘Although perovskite solar cells(PSCs) demonstrate outstanding power conversion efficiency(PCE), their practical applications are still limited by stability issues caused by various problems such as poor crystal quality triggered structural instability. Herein, to address the structural instability of perovskites, we introduced a polymer additive, poly-L-lysine hydrobromide(PLL), into the perovskite precursor to promote perovskite crystal growth, thereby constructing a stable crystal structure. The results show that the introduction of PLL modulates the colloidal aggregation state in the precursor solution, provides longer time for growth of perovskite and successfully realizes the formation of large-sized perovskite films with high crystallinity. More importantly, owing to its hydrophobic long-chain structure and the widespread distribution of C=O and NH on the chain, PLL firmly locks the perovskite crystals, enhancing their structural stability while blocking the intrusion of external factors such as water molecules, significantly enhances the overall stability of the device. The results show that the PLL-based PSC has negligible hysteresis and its PCE is improved from 22.20% to 23.66%. while the PLL-modified perovskite films and devices demonstrate excellent thermal and environmental stability. These findings highlight PLL as a promising additive for optimizing perovskite crystallization, offering guidance for fabricating efficient and stable photovoltaic devices.
