文摘Background:Panacis Quinquefolii Radix(PQR)is known for its ability to nourish“Qi”(it serves as the driving force for the functional activities of the body’s organs and meridians,promoting and regulating various physiological functions)and“Yin”(it represents the material foundation of the human body.It plays a role in nourishing,moistening,and cooling the body).Notoginseng Radix et Rhizoma(NRR)is recognized for its properties of resolving blood stasis(it refers to a pathological condition characterized by impaired or stagnant blood circulation within the body).Changes in the compatibility ratio of these herbs often lead to variations in their chemical composition and efficacy.However,the specific alterations in chemical composition and efficacy resulting from compatibility adjustments remain unclear.We aimed to compare the material basis and their effects of different compatibility ratios of PQR and NRR on“Qi”deficiency and blood stasis syndrome(QBS).Methods:This study employed UPLC-Q/TOF-MS to identify effective compounds in the compatibility of PQR and NRR and utilized UPLC-TQ-MS/MS to analyze the dissolution of 16 saponins in PQR and NRR at 9 different ratios.A rat model of QBS was established,and the efficacy of PQR and NRR in treating this syndrome was assessed using hemorheology and coagulation analyses.Results:The study results show that PQR and NRR exhibit significant efficacy,effectively reducing blood viscosity induced by platelet aggregation and lowering inflammatory markers such as IL-6,IL-10,TXB2 and ET associated with vascular injury.Moreover,this combination regulates ATP and ADP levels,enhances energy metabolism,and promotes overall health.A total of 104 compounds in the compatibility of PQR and NRR were identified.The ratios of 1:2 and 1:3 showed the highest total saponin content,but the ratio of 1:1 demonstrated a superior pharmacological effect for the treatment of QBS.Conclusion:In summary,the compatibility of PQR and NRR not only shows the complex interactions between traditional Chinese medicinal materials,but also provides a new idea and method for the treatment of QBS.

文摘Developing advanced stealth devices to cope with radar-infrared(IR)fusion detection and diverse application scenarios is increasingly demanded,which faces significant challenges due to conflicting microwave and IR cloaking mechanisms and functional integration limitations.Here,we propose a multiscale hierarchical structure design,integrating wrinkled MXene IR shielding layer and flexible Fe_(3)O_(4)@C/PDMS microwave absorption layer.The top wrinkled MXene layer induces the intensive diffuse reflection effect,shielding IR radiation signals while allowing microwave to pass through.Meanwhile,the permeable microwaves are assimilated into the bottom Fe_(3)O_(4)@C/PDMS layer via strong magneto-electric synergy.Through theoretical and experimental optimization,the assembled stealth devices realize a near-perfect stealth capability in both X-band(8–12 GHz)and long-wave infrared(8–14μm)wavelength ranges.Specifically,it delivers a radar cross-section reduction of−20 dB m^(2),a large apparent temperature modulation range(ΔT=70℃),and a low average IR emissivity of 0.35.Additionally,the optimal device demonstrates exceptional curved surface conformability,self-cleaning capability(contact angle≈129°),and abrasion resistance(recovery time≈5 s).This design strategy promotes the development of multispectral stealth technology and reinforces its applicability and durability in complex and hostile environments.

文摘Traditional stealth materials do not fulfill the requirements of high absorption for radar waves and low emissivity for infrared waves.Furthermore,they can be detected by various technologies,considerably threatening weapon safety.Therefore,a stealth material compatible with radar and infrared was designed based on the photonic bandgap characteristics of photonic crystals.The radar stealth lay-er(bottom layer)is a composite of carbonyl iron/silicon dioxide/epoxy resin,and the infrared stealth layer(top layer)is a 1D photonic crystal with alternately and periodically stacked germanium and silicon nitride.Through composition optimization and structural adjust-ment,the effective absorption bandwidth of the compatible stealth material with a reflection loss of less than-10 dB has reached 4.95 GHz.The average infrared emissivity of the proposed design is 0.1063,indicating good stealth performance.The theoretical analysis proves that photonic crystals with this structural design can produce infrared waves within the photonic bandgap,achieving high radar wave transmittance and low infrared emissivity.Infrared stealth is achieved without affecting the absorption performance of the radar stealth layer,and the conflict between radar and infrared stealth performance is resolved.This work aims to promote the application of photonic crystals in compatible stealth materials and the development of stealth technology and to provide a design and theoretical found-ation for related experiments and research.

文摘Objective This study aimed to study the effects of different crystalline states of Sheng Shigao(raw gypsum,RG)and its inorganic elements on the antipyretic efficacy of Baihu Decoction(BHT).Methods RG samples calcined at different temperatures were prepared.The phase composition of RG and Duan Shigao(calcination of gypsum,CG)as well as the changes in phase composition before and after adding water to RG calcined at specific temperatures,were determined using X-ray diffraction(XRD).A fever model was established by subcutaneously injecting 20%yeast suspension(10 mL·kg~(-1))into the backs of rats.The effects of BHT containing RG in different crystalline states on rat body temperature were measured.Serum levels of IL-1β,IL-6,and hypothalamic prostaglandin E2(PGE_2)were detected using ELISA.Serum Ca~(2+)levels were measured using a microplate method.The content of trace elements in RG and CG and the corresponding freeze-dried BHT powder was determined using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry(ICP-MS).The complexation of representative inorganic elements with mangiferin,a major active component in BHT,was investigated using UV-Vis spectroscopy and fluorescence spectroscopy.A validation model was established using RAW264.7 mouse macrophages.Drug-containing serum of BHT with different inorganic elements was prepared,and the nitric oxide(NO)levels in the cell supernatant of different treatment groups were measured using the Griess method.The mRNA levels of IL-6,TNF-α,and PGE2in each group were detected using qPCR(real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR).Results After calcination,the phase composition of RG changed,and the content of inorganic elements in RG,CG170(RG calcined at 170°C),and CG350(RG calcined at 350°C)showed similar trends.Compared with RG,the content of Ca,Sr,Al,and Na in CG changed significantly.Compared with BHT,the content of Ca,Sr,Si,and Na in CG changed significantly when incorporated into the formula.Intermolecular interactions confirmed strong binding between mangiferin and Cu~(2+)and Al~(3+).Cu~(2+)and Fe~(3+)exhibited fluorescence quenching effects on mangiferin solution,while Al~(3+)and Zn~(2+)showed strong fluorescence enhancement,with fluorescence intensity increasing by 120-fold and 30-fold,respectively.In vitro evaluation of synergistic anti-inflammatory effects confirmed that Ca,Fe,Cr,Al,and Si exhibited synergistic anti-inflammatory effects.Conclusion The crystalline state of RG has little effect on its antipyretic properties,while Ca,Sr,Na,Fe,and Al are likely the key material bases influencing its efficacy.

文摘Grafting is widely used in cucumbers to enhance their tolerance to environmental stress.Compatibility is a key factor for successful grafting,however,the physiological mechanisms that affect grafting compatibility are not clear.This study aimed to investigate the physiological mechanism underlying cucumber/pumpkin grafting compatibility.Two pumpkin cultivars with significant differences in compatibility,Figleaf gourd(compatible rootstock,Cf)and Dongyangshenli(incompatible rootstock,Cmo),were used as rootstocks.Three cucumber cultivars with different growth rates were used as scions,including cucumber‘Shenluchunsi’(strong growth,V1),‘Cuilü’(weak growth,V2),and‘Liangyoulüjian 102’(medium growth,V3).Six grafting combinations(V1/Cf,V2/Cf,V3/Cf,V1/Cmo,V2/Cmo,and V3/Cmo)were used to analyze the effect of scion and rootstock varieties,as well as the chemical composition of the exudate from the stem cutting surface,on the compatibility of grafted plants.Here,we found that rootstock was closely correlated with the compatibility of cucumber/pumpkin grafted plants.The sucrose content in the exudate of the stem,enzyme activity,and the expression of genes related to sucrose biosynthesis in Cmo were significantly higher than those in Cf.Correlation analysis showed that the sucrose content difference between the exudate of rootstock and scion stems was negatively correlated with graft compatibility.Exogenous treatment with a 0.5%sucrose solution on the scions significantly reduced the difference in sucrose content between rootstock and scion and enhanced graft survival rate in the incompatible combination.The stem segment grafting experiment in vitro found that the high difference in sucrose concentration between the rootstock and scion decreased the grafting compatibility of cucumber/pumpkin by reducing the adhesion of the cutting surface.Taken together,the higher sucrose concentration difference between rootstock and scion decreased the adhesion of the cutting surface,resulting in the incompatibility of cucumber/pumpkin grafted plants.

文摘Wild peanut(Arachis)species are promising sources of disease resistance for improving peanut cultivars.The objective of this study was to assess cross-compatibility among cultivated and wild peanuts in crosses between eight peanut cultivars and 27 wild species carrying the A,B,E,Ex,F,K,P,and H genomes.Embryo culture and chromosome doubling led to polyploids representing hybrids between cultivated peanut and A.stenosperma,A.macedoi,A.duranensis,A.villosa,and A.diogoi.The first two showed greater resistance to bacterial wilt than their cultivated parents.DNA markers were developed for verifying the hybrids and for identifying translocation or introgression lines with alien chromosome fragments.

文摘Magnesium alloy is a promising biodegradable metal material for hard tissue engineering.However,its high corrosion rate limits its application.In our previous study,we biomimetically deposited a calcium carbonate coating on the surface of magnesium alloy using siloxane induction.This calcium carbonate coating demonstrated excellent in vitro biocompatibility and provided partial protection for the magnesium alloy substrate.In this study,we further enhanced the corrosion resistance of the calcium carbonate coating by treating it with stearic acid and its derivative,sodium stearate.Electrochemical corrosion tests revealed that the sodium stearate-treated calcium carbonate coating reduced the corrosion rate by two orders of magnitude.Additionally,in vitro biocompatibility assessments showed that while the biocompatibility of the sodium stearate-treated coating was slightly reduced,it remained acceptable compared to the magnesium substrate.This study builds on our previous work and offers a promising reinforcement strategy for degradable magnesium alloys in medical applications.

文摘Multifunctional compatible stealth materials have emerged as the focal point of contemporary protection technology research and vanadium-based nanomaterials play a pivotal role in the development of advanced stealth materials.Here,a compatible stealth aerogel is successfully synthesized by employing mixed-valence decavanadate as the vanadium oxide(VO_(x))molecular model.Ultralight{VⅣVV_(9)}/MXene aerogel(0.0429 g cm^(-3))exhibits exceptional radar stealth performance with a minimal reflection loss(RL_(min))of−57.74 dB(99.9998%EMW absorption)and a significantly superior radar cross section reduction value of 26.77 dB m2.The aerogel’s exceptional properties,including a low infrared(IR)emissivity(0.479)and a low thermal conductivity of(32.30 mW m^(-1)K^(-1)),are crucial for enabling compatibility with IR and thermal stealth technologies.The presence of a mixed-valence polyoxovanadate cluster leads to an increase in the Schottky barrier and enhances magnetic properties,consequently boosting interfacial polarization and contributing to magnetic losses during electromagnetic wave(EMW)absorption.Consequently,altering the number of valence electrons significantly enhances the compatible stealth capabilities.These findings contribute significantly to our comprehension of how microstructure impacts EMW absorption processes and provide a basis for further research into the development of VO_(x)-based compatible stealth materials.

文摘The combination of advanced photoelectric detectors has rendered single-band camouflage materials ineffective,necessitating the development of infrared multispectral camouflage.However,the design and fabrication of existing works remain complex as they usually require the integration of multiscale structures.Here,we introduce phase modulation into the infrared camouflage metasurfaces with metal-dielectric-metal configuration,enabling them to achieve camouflage across more bands.Based on this strategy,a simple but effective single-layer cascaded metasurface is demonstrated for the first time to achieve low reflection at multi-wavelength lasers,low infrared radiation in atmospheric windows,and broadband thermal management.As a proof-of-concept,a 4-inch sample with a minimum linewidth of 1.8μm is fabricated using photolithography.The excellent infrared multispectral camouflage performance is verified in experiments,showing low reflectance in 0.9–1.6μm,low infrared emissivity in mid-wavelength infrared(MWIR)and long-wavelength infrared(LWIR)bands,and high absorptance at the wavelength of 10.6μm.Meanwhile,broadband high emissivity in 5–8μm can provide high-performance radiative heat dissipation.When the input power is 1.57 W·cm^(-2),the surface/radiation temperature of the metasurface decreases by 5.3℃/18.7℃ compared to the reference.The proposed metasurface may trigger further innovation in the design and application of compact multispectral optical devices.

文摘The increasing deployment of electronics in everyday life has generated great concerns regarding the effective disposal of waste from these components.Here,we focused on a facile sustainable and economical strategy to provide ideas for this issue.This strategy relied on using appropriate mechanical treatment and sodium lignosulfonate coating to improve the dispersion and interfacial compatibility of bamboo fibers in poly(lactic acid).By optimising the particle size and concentration of sodium lignosulphonate,high value-added and green composites were prepared using sectional pressurization with a venting procedure.The treated composite displayed an ultra-smooth surface(roughness of 0.592 nm),impressive transient properties(disintegration and degradation behaviour after 30 d),and outstanding ultraviolet(UV)shielding properties(100%).These properties hold the promise of being an excellent substrate for electronic devices,especially for high-precision processing,transient electronics,and UV damage prevention.The satisfactory interfacial compatibility of the composites was confirmed by detailed characterisation regarding the related physicochemical properties.This investigation offers a sustainable approach for producing high value-added green composites from biomass and biomass-derived materials.

文摘In this study,the effects of different salinity gradients and addition of compatible solutes on anaerobic treated effluent water qualities,sludge characteristics and microbial communities were investigated.The increase in salinity resulted in a decrease in particle size of the granular sludge,which was concentrated in the range of 0.5-1.0 mm.The content of EPS(extracellular polymeric substances)in the granular sludge gradually increased with increasing salinity and the addition of betaine(a typical compatible solute).Meanwhile,the microbial community structure was significantly affected by salinity,with high salinity reducing the diversity of bacteria.At higher salinity,Patescibacteria and Proteobacteria gradually became the dominant phylum,with relative abundance increasing to 13.53%and 12.16%at 20 g/L salinity.Desulfobacterota and its subordinate Desulfovibrio,which secrete EPS in large quantities,dominated significantly after betaine addition.Their relative abundance reached 13.65%and 7.86%at phylum level and genus level.The effect of these changes on the treated effluent was shown as the average chemical oxygen demand(COD)removal rate decreased from 82.10%to 79.71%,78.01%,68.51%and 64.55%when the salinity gradually increased from 2 g/L to 6,10,16 and 20 g/L.At the salinity of 20 g/L,average COD removal increased to 71.65%by the addition of 2 mmol/L betaine.The gradient elevated salinity and the exogenous addition of betaine played an important role in achieving stability of the anaerobic system in a highly saline environment,which provided a feasible strategy for anaerobic treatment of organic saline wastewater.

文摘Traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)features complex compatibility mechanisms involving multicomponent,multi-target,and multi-pathway interactions.This study presents an interpretable graph artificial intelligence(GraphAI)framework to quantify such mechanisms in Chinese herbal formulas(CHFs).A multidimensional TCM knowledge graph(TCM-MKG;https://zenodo.org/records/13763953)was constructed,integrating seven standardized modules:TCM terminology,Chinese patent medicines(CPMs),Chinese herbal pieces(CHPs),pharmacognostic origins(POs),chemical compounds,biological targets,and diseases.A neighbor-diffusion strategy was used to address the sparsity of compound-target associations,increasing target coverage from 12.0%to 98.7%.Graph neural networks(GNNs)with attention mechanisms were applied to 6,080 CHFs,modeled as graphs with CHPs as nodes.To embed domain-specific semantics,virtual nodes medicinal properties,i.e.,therapeutic nature,flavor,and meridian tropism,were introduced,enabling interpretable modeling of inter-CHP relationships.The model quantitatively captured classical compatibility roles such as“monarch-minister-assistant-guide”,and uncovered TCM etiological types derived from diagnostic and efficacy patterns.Model validation using 215 CHFs used for coronavirus disease 2019(COVID-19)management highlighted Radix Astragali-Rhizoma Phragmitis as a high-attention herb pair.Mass spectrometry(MS)and target prediction identified three active compounds,i.e.,methylinissolin-3-O-glucoside,corydalin,and pingbeinine,which converge on pathways such as neuroactive ligand-receptor interaction,xenobiotic response,and neuronal function,supporting their neuroimmune and detoxification potential.Given their high safety and dietary compatibility,this herb pair may offer therapeutic value for managing long COVID-19.All data and code are openly available(https://github.com/ZENGJingqi/GraphAI-for-TCM),providing a scalable and interpretable platform for TCM mechanism research and discovery of bioactive herbal constituents.

文摘A personalized outfit recommendation has emerged as a hot research topic in the fashion domain.However,existing recommendations do not fully exploit user style preferences.Typically,users prefer particular styles such as casual and athletic styles,and consider attributes like color and texture when selecting outfits.To achieve personalized outfit recommendations in line with user style preferences,this paper proposes a personal style guided outfit recommendation with multi-modal fashion compatibility modeling,termed as PSGNet.Firstly,a style classifier is designed to categorize fashion images of various clothing types and attributes into distinct style categories.Secondly,a personal style prediction module extracts user style preferences by analyzing historical data.Then,to address the limitations of single-modal representations and enhance fashion compatibility,both fashion images and text data are leveraged to extract multi-modal features.Finally,PSGNet integrates these components through Bayesian personalized ranking(BPR)to unify the personal style and fashion compatibility,where the former is used as personal style features and guides the output of the personalized outfit recommendation tailored to the target user.Extensive experiments on large-scale datasets demonstrate that the proposed model is efficient on the personalized outfit recommendation.

文摘Due to its synergistic effects and reduced side effects,combination therapy has become an important strategy for treating complex diseases.In traditional Chinese medicine(TCM),the“monarch,minister,assistant,envoy”compatibilities theory provides a systematic framework for drug compatibility and has guided the formation of a large number of classic formulas.However,due to the complex compositions and diverse mechanisms of action of TCM,it is difficult to comprehensively reveal its potential synergistic patterns using traditional methods.Synergistic prediction based on molecular compatibility theory provides new ideas for identifying combinations of active compounds in TCM.Compared to resource-intensive traditional experimental methods,artificial intelligence possesses the ability to mine synergistic patterns from multi-omics and structural data,providing an efficient means for modeling and optimizing TCM combinations.This paper systematically reviews the application progress of AI in the synergistic prediction of TCM active compounds and explores the challenges and prospects of its application in modeling combination relationships,thereby contributing to the modernization of TCM theory and methodological innovation.

文摘With the widespread adoption of lithium-ion batteries(LIBs),safety concerns associated with flammable organic elec-trolytes have become increasingly critical.Solid-state lithium batteries(SSLBs),with enhanced safety and higher energy density potential,are regarded as a promising next-generation energy storage technology.However,the practical appli-cation of solid-state electrolytes(SSEs)remains hindered by several challenges,including low Li+ion conductivity,poor interfacial compatibility with electrodes,unfavorable mechanical properties and difficulties in scalable manufacturing.This review systematically examines recent progress in SSEs,including inorganic types(oxides,sulfides,halides),organic types(polymers,plastic crystals,poly(ionic liquids)(PILs)),and the emerging class of soft solid-state electrolytes(S3Es),especially those based on“rigid-flexible synergy”composites and“Li+-desolvation”mechanism using porous frameworks.Critical assessment reveals that single-component SSEs face inherent limitations that are difficult to be fully overcome through compositional and structural modification alone.In contrast,S3Es integrate the strength of complementary components to achieve a balanced and synergic enhancement in electrochemical properties(e.g.,ionic conductivity and stability window),mechanical integrity,and processability,showing great promise as next-generation SSEs.Furthermore,the application-ori-ented challenges and emerging trends in S3E research are outlined,aiming to provide strategic insights into future develop-ment of high-performance SSEs.
文摘Background The pink bollworm(Pectinophora gossypiella,PBW)is a major cotton pest,causing economic losses by damaging seeds and fiber.Cotton growers typically use systemic and broad-spectrum insecticides for its manage-ment,which pose risks to human health and the environment.Consequently,there is a need for eco-friendly alterna-tives.This study evaluates the bio-efficacy of the entomopathogenic fungus Metarhizium anisopliae strain TMBMA1 against pink bollworm and assesses its compatibility with major insecticides.Additionally,to comprehend the dynam-ics of colonization and the infection processes of entomopathogenic fungi(EPF),scanning electron microscopy(SEM)of infected larvae was carried out.Result We challenged the second instar PBW larvae to eight different concentrations(1×10^(3) to 1×10^(10) conidia mL^(-1))of an M.anisopliae strain TMBMA1.The highest mortality(100%)occurred at the higher concentrations i.e.,1×109 and 1×10^(10) spores mL^(-1),while the lowest mortality rate(46.6%)was observed at 1×10^(3) spores mL^(-1) con-centration compared to control(3.33%).TMBMA1’s biocontrol efficacy was validated by Probit analysis,exhibiting an exceptionally low median lethal concentration(LC50)value of 7.1×10^(5).The comparative evaluation revealed that the M.anisopliae strain TMBMA1 performed excellently with insecticide[Cypermethrin 10%(volume fraction)emulsifiable concentrate(EC)at 1 mL·L^(-1) water]giving 100%mortality,both being superior to a commercial prod-uct of M.anisopliae(60%).According to SEM analysis,the EPF strain was profusely colonized on both the internal and external surfaces of PBW larvae.Compatibility studies with insecticides revealed>98%and>96%reduction in the sporulation of M.anisopliae due to the treatment of Emamectin Benzoate 1.5%(mass fraction)+Profenofos 35%(mass fraction)water dispersible granules(WDG)and Profenofos 50%EC,respectively.In contrast,Cypermethrin 10%EC,Emamectin Benzoate 5%(mass fraction)Soluble Granules and Neem Seed Kernel Extract(NSKE)0.15%(volume fraction)treatments reported lower reduction(11.45%,13.79%and 21.21%respectively)in spore production.Conclusion According to the current investigations,the M.anisopliae strain TMBMA1 exhibits high virulence against PBW and offers a promising eco-friendly solution for managing this pest.It shows significant potential to pro-liferate on both external and internal surfaces of PBW.This strain can be integrated into PBW management programs with chemical insecticides,improving pest control and lessening environmental impact.

文摘Designing and fabricating a compatible low-reflectivity electromagnetic interference(EMI)shielding/high-temperature resistant infrared stealth material possesses a critical significance in the field of military.Hence,a hierarchical polyimide(PI)nonwoven fabric is fabricated by alkali treatment,in-situ growth of magnetic particles and"self-activated"electroless Ag plating process.Especially,the hierarchical impedance matching can be constructed by systematically assembling Fe_(3)O_(4)/Ag-loaded PI nonwoven fabric(PFA)and pure Ag-coated PI nonwoven fabric(PA),endowing it with an ultralowreflectivity EMI shielding performance.In addition,thermal insulation of fluffy three-dimensional(3D)space structure in PFA and low infrared emissivity of PA originated from Ag plating bring an excellent infrared stealth performance.More importantly,the strong bonding interaction between Fe_(3)O_(4),Ag,and PI fiber improves thermal stability in EMI shielding and high-temperature resistant infrared stealth performance.Such excellent comprehensive performance makes it promising for military tents to protect internal equipment from electromagnetic interference stemmed from adjacent equipment and/or enemy,and inhibit external infrared detection.

文摘Turbojet engines played significant roles in the aviation industry and still have important applications in small engines for missiles to reduce weight.In this paper,we concentrate on the simulation of the centrifugal turbine impeller and introduce the advanced Isogeometric analysis(IGA)method.IGA,which bypasses the mesh generation process in finite element analysis(FEA),has the potential for seamless integration between computer-aided design(CAD)and computer-aided engineering(CAE).To overcome the problem of only applying the spline basis function in IGA,we propose a parametric modeling approach and construct a centrifugal impeller library.The proposed modeling method generates a compatible hub by rotating the customized shaped blades,avoids the trimmed curves and surfaces,and provides suitable analysis models straight for IGA.The constructed library produces three distinct centrifugal impellers,which are represented by multiple nonuniform rational B-splines(NURBS)patches,including Reissner-Mindlin(RM)shell-to-RM shell,RM shell-to-solid,and solid-to-solid.To avoid the instability issues arising from weakly gluing algorithms in the analysis process on complex geometries,we propose an effective coupling method utilizing compatible patches to globally number the control points and assemble the stiffness matrix and load vector.The degree of freedom(DOF)of the solid is employed to dispose of the inconsistent DOF problem between the RM shell-to-solid model in this algorithm.We consider two kinds of operating environments,including centrifugal force and steady heat conduction to the functioning turboprop.Under the same accuracy,our MATLAB coding results demonstrate that IGA requires fewer elements,and achieves superior rendering effects to ABAQUS.Unlike FEA,the IGA method maintains the same geometry as the origin model after analysis.

文摘Severe segregation and poor rheological properties in crumb rubber(CR)modified asphalt(CRMT)were addressed by investigating the performance improvement effect of organic expanded vermiculite(OEV)as a comodifier,while the modification mechanism of the resulting asphalt was also elucidated.Vermiculite was thermally treated and chemically modified to enhance its interaction with the asphalt matrix and CR,improving dispersion and interfacial properties.CR/OEV/furfural extract oil(OIL)composite modified asphalt(COMT)was prepared in this study.The compatibility and microscopic mechanism of modified asphalt were characterized by dynamic shear rheological test,multiple stress creep recovery(MSCR)test,BBR test,thermal segregation test,fluorescent scanning test,infrared spectroscopy,and gel permeation chromatography.Rheological tests showed that the modified asphalt exhibited improved high-temperature stability,with increased G*/sin(δ)values,and better low-temperature flexibility.Storage stability tests showed a reduced softening point difference,indicating enhanced homogeneity and reduced segregation.Microscopic analysis revealed that OEV effectively optimized the microstructure of the composite system by promoting the uniform dispersion of CR within the asphalt matrix.Furthermore,the macromolecular weight of COMT was increased by 31.9%,molecular weight analysis confirmed a higher proportion of large molecular weight fractions,contributing to enhanced rheological properties and compatibility.These findings demonstrated that OEV significantly improved the performance and durability of CRMT,providing a promising approach for sustainable road construction.
