This study focuses on the complex cubic NLSE with δ-potential,explored through the Brownian process. The investigation begins with the derivation of stochastic solitary wave solutions using the modified exp(-Ψ(ξ)) expansion method. To illustrate the noise effects, 3D and 2D visualizations are displayed for different non-negative values of noise parameter under suitable parameter values. Additionally, qualitative analysis of both perturbed and unperturbed dynamical systems is conducted using bifurcation and chaos theory. In bifurcation analysis, we analyze the detailed parameter analysis near fixed points of the unperturbed system. An external periodic force is applied to perturb the system, leading to an investigation of its chaotic behavior. Chaos detection tools are employed to predict the behavior of the perturbed dynamical system, with results validated through visual representations.Multistability analysis is conducted under varying initial conditions to identify multiple stable states in the perturbed dynamical system, contributing to chaotic behavior. Also, sensitivity analysis of the Hamiltonian system is performed for different initial conditions. The novelty of this work lies in the significance of the obtained results, which have not been previously explored for the considered equation. These findings offer noteworthy insights into the behavior of the complex cubic NLSE with δ-potential and its applications in fields such as nonlinear optics, quantum mechanics and Bose–Einstein condensates.展开更多

Firstly, the nonlinear SEIQR epidemic spreading dynamic differential coupling model is proposed. Then, by using mean-field theory and the next-generation matrix method, the equilibriums and basic reproduction number are derived. Theoretical results indicate that the basic reproduction number significantly relies on model parameters and topology of the underlying networks. In addition, the globally asymptotic stability of equilibrium and the permanence of the disease are proved in detail by the Routh–Hurwitz criterion, Lyapunov method and La Salle's invariance principle. Furthermore, we find that the quarantine mechanism, that is the quarantine rate(γ1, γ2), has a significant effect on epidemic spreading through sensitivity analysis of basic reproduction number and model parameters. Meanwhile, the optimal control model of quarantined rate and analysis method are proposed, which can optimize the government control strategies and reduce the number of infected individual. Finally, numerical simulations are given to verify the correctness of theoretical results and a practice application is proposed to predict and control the spreading of COVID-19.展开更多

While traditional tools and linear models offer insights, they fall short in presenting a holistic view of complex urban challenges. System dynamics (SD) models that are often utilized to provide holistic, systematic understanding of a research subject, like the urban system, emerge as valuable tools, but data scarcity and theoretical inadequacy pose challenges. The research reviews relevant papers on recent SD model applications in urban sustainability since 2018, categorizing them based on nine key indicators. Among the reviewed papers, data limitations and model assumptions were identified as ma jor challenges in applying SD models to urban sustainability. This led to exploring the transformative potential of big data analytics, a rare approach in this field as identified by this study, to enhance SD models’ empirical foundation. Integrating big data could provide data-driven calibration, potentially improving predictive accuracy and reducing reliance on simplified assumptions. The paper concludes by advocating for new approaches that reduce assumptions and promote real-time applicable models, contributing to a comprehensive understanding of urban sustainability through the synergy of big data and SD models.展开更多

In response to the micromechanical defects such as porosity issues, significant deformation, surface cracks, and challenging control of surface morphology encountered during the selective laser melting(SLM) additive manufacturing(AM) process of specialized Micro Electromechanical System(MEMS) components, multiparameter optimization and micro powder melt pool/macro-scale mechanical properties control simulation of specialized components are conducted. The optimal parameters obtained through highprecision preparation and machining of components and static/high dynamic verification are: laser power of 110 W, laser speed of 600 mm/s, laser diameter of 75 μm, and scanning spacing of 50 μm. The density of the subordinate components under this reference can reach 99.15%, the surface hardness can reach 51.9 HRA, the yield strength can reach 550 MPa, the maximum machining error of the components is 4.73%, and the average surface roughness is 0.45 μm. Through dynamic hammering and high dynamic firing verification, SLM components meet the requirements for overload resistance. The results have proven that MEM technology can provide a new means for the processing of MEMS components applied in high dynamic environments. The parameters obtained in the conclusion can provide a design basis for the additive preparation of MEMS components.展开更多

Understanding the interaction between supports and the surrounding rock is necessary for effective rockburst control. In this study, the squeezing behavior of the surrounding rock is analyzed in rockburst roadways, and a mechanical model of rockbursts is established considering the dynamic support stress, thus deriving formulas and providing characteristic curves for describing the interaction between the support and surrounding rock. Design principles and parameters of supports for rockburst control are proposed. The results show that only when the geostress magnitude exceeds a critical value can it drive the formation of rockburst conditions. The main factors influencing the convergence response and rockburst occurrence around roadways are geostress, rock brittleness, uniaxial compressive strength, and roadway excavation size. Roadway support devices can play a role in controlling rockburst by suppressing the squeezing evolution of the surrounding rock towards instability points of rockburst. Further, the higher the strength and the longer the impact stroke of support devices with constant resistance, the more easily multiple balance points can be formed with the surrounding rock to control rockburst occurrence. Supports with long impact stroke allow adaptation to varying geostress levels around the roadway, aiding in rockburst control. The results offer a quantitative method for designing support systems for rockburst-prone roadways. The design criterion of supports is determined by the intersection between the convergence curve of the surrounding rock and the squeezing deformation curve of the support devices.展开更多

文摘The Arabian-Nubian Shield(ANS)serves as a key geological archive,preserving the tectono-thermal evolution associated with the Rodinia breakup(∼900–800 Ma)and Gondwana formation(∼800–620 Ma).The Katherina Ring Complex(KRC),located in the Sinai Peninsula,Egypt(northern ANS),exemplifies continental growth through multistage magmatism and orogenesis,spanning the Tonian to Ediacaran periods(∼900–530 Ma).Despite its importance,debates persist regarding the nature,age,crustal characteristics,and magma source evolution of its constituent units.Situated in the northwestern part of the KRC,the Wadi Rofaiyed Cu deposit offers an exceptional natural laboratory for investigating continental crust formation during this interval,owing to its superb exposure and preservation.This study integrates detailed fieldwork,petrographic analyses,whole-rock geochemistry,Sr-Nd isotopes,and in situ zircon U-Pb-Lu-Hf isotopic data.It aims to(i)establish a robust chronological framework for the unmetamorphosed plutonic rocks of the KRC,(ii)advance the understanding of associated geodynamic processes,and(iii)elucidate the episodic magmatism events.The findings show that Wadi Rofaiyed juvenile crust developed in four main phases:(i)a subduction-accretionary phase(∼755 Ma)characterized by intense calc-alkaline magmatism,originating from the partial melting of mafic lower crust;(ii)a syn-collisional phase(∼630 Ma)occurred during the collision between the Saharan metacraton and the younger ANS crust,producing I-type granitoids formed through magma mixing and crustal anatexis;(iii)a post-collisional phase characterized by intermediate I-type(∼595 Ma)to felsic A-type alkaline magma(∼594 Ma),originated from the partial melting of the overthickened lower crust corresponding to lithospheric delamination;and(iv)an anorogenic phase(∼530 Ma)related to the final amalgamation of Greater Gondwana.Isotopic analyses across all four magmatic phases reveal low initial^(87)Sr/^(86)Sr(0.702648–0.703311)and positiveε_(Hf)(t)(+2.84 to+7.78)andε_(Nd)(t)(+2.61 to+5.21)values,consistent with lower crustal sources with depleted mantle-like signatures.The model ages(T_(DM2))for these magmatic rocks derived from zircon Hf(1.2–1.5 Ga)and whole-rock Nd isotopes(0.96–1.17 Ga)support a predominantly juvenile crustal origin.These findings underscore the multistage tectono-magmatic evolution of the northern ANS,advancing our understanding of obduction-accretion dynamics and crustal development during the Neoproterozoic.

文摘Rock masses are often exposed to dynamic loads such as earthquakes and mechanical disturbances in practical engineering scenarios.The existence of underground caverns and weak geological structures like columnar jointed rock masses(CJRMs)and interlayer shear weakness zones(ISWZs)with inferior mechanical properties,significantly undermines the overall structural stability.To tackle the dynamic loading issues in the process of constructing subterranean caverns,a programmable modeling approach was utilized to reconstruct a large-scale underground cavern model incorporating ISWZs and columnar joints(CJs).By conducting dynamic simulations with varying load orientations,the analyses focused on the failure patterns,deformation characteristics,and acoustic emission activity within the caverns.Results revealed that the failure modes of the underground caverns under dynamic loading were predominantly tensile failures.Under X-direction loading,the failed elements were mainly distributed parallel to the CJs,while under Y-direction loading,they were distributed parallel to the transverse weak structural planes.Furthermore,the dynamic stability of the overall structure varied with the number of caverns.The dual-cavern model demonstrated the highest stability under X-direction loading,while the single-cavern model was the least stable.Under Y-direction loading,the cavern stability increased with the number of caverns.Importantly,different weak structures affected the dynamic response of caverns in different ways;the CJRMs were the primary contributors to structural failure,while ISWZs could mitigate the rock mass failure induced by CJs.The findings could offer valuable insights for the dynamic stability analysis of caverns containing CJRMs and ISWZs.

文摘This paper addresses urban sustainability challenges amid global urbanization, emphasizing the need for innova tive approaches aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals. While traditional tools and linear models offer insights, they fall short in presenting a holistic view of complex urban challenges. System dynamics (SD) models that are often utilized to provide holistic, systematic understanding of a research subject, like the urban system, emerge as valuable tools, but data scarcity and theoretical inadequacy pose challenges. The research reviews relevant papers on recent SD model applications in urban sustainability since 2018, categorizing them based on nine key indicators. Among the reviewed papers, data limitations and model assumptions were identified as ma jor challenges in applying SD models to urban sustainability. This led to exploring the transformative potential of big data analytics, a rare approach in this field as identified by this study, to enhance SD models’ empirical foundation. Integrating big data could provide data-driven calibration, potentially improving predictive accuracy and reducing reliance on simplified assumptions. The paper concludes by advocating for new approaches that reduce assumptions and promote real-time applicable models, contributing to a comprehensive understanding of urban sustainability through the synergy of big data and SD models.
文摘It is of great scientific significance to construct a 3D dynamic structural color with a special color effect based on the microlens array.However,the problems of imperfect mechanisms and poor color quality need to be solved.A method of 3D structural color turning on periodic metasurfaces fabricated by the microlens array and self-assembly technology was proposed in this study.In the experiment,Polydimethylsiloxane(PDMS)flexible film was used as a substrate,and SiO2 microspheres were scraped into grooves of the PDMS film to form 3D photonic crystal structures.By adjusting the number of blade-coated times and microsphere concentrations,high-saturation structural color micropatterns were obtained.These films were then matched with microlens arrays to produce dynamic graphics with iridescent effects.The results showed that by blade-coated two times and SiO2 microsphere concentrations of 50%are the best conditions.This method demonstrates the potential for being widely applied in the anticounterfeiting printing and ultra-high-resolution display.

文摘The hot deformation behavior of Pt−10Ir alloy was studied under a wide range of deformation parameters.At a low deformation temperature(950−1150℃),the softening mechanism is primarily dynamic recovery.In addition,dynamic recrystallization by progressive lattice rotation near grain boundaries(DRX by LRGBs)and microshear bands assisted dynamic recrystallization(MSBs assisted DRX)coordinate the deformation.However,it is difficult for the dynamic softening to offset the stain hardening due to a limited amount of DRXed grains.At a high deformation temperature(1250−1350℃),three main DRX mechanisms associated with strain rates occur:DRX by LRGBs,DRX by a homogeneous increase in misorientation(HIM)and geometric DRX(GDRX).With increasing strain,DRX by LRGBs is enhanced gradually under high strain rates;the“pinch-off”effect is enhanced at low strain rates,which was conducive to the formation of a uniform and fine microstructure.

文摘Metal Additive Manufacturing(MAM) technology has become an important means of rapid prototyping precision manufacturing of special high dynamic heterogeneous complex parts. In response to the micromechanical defects such as porosity issues, significant deformation, surface cracks, and challenging control of surface morphology encountered during the selective laser melting(SLM) additive manufacturing(AM) process of specialized Micro Electromechanical System(MEMS) components, multiparameter optimization and micro powder melt pool/macro-scale mechanical properties control simulation of specialized components are conducted. The optimal parameters obtained through highprecision preparation and machining of components and static/high dynamic verification are: laser power of 110 W, laser speed of 600 mm/s, laser diameter of 75 μm, and scanning spacing of 50 μm. The density of the subordinate components under this reference can reach 99.15%, the surface hardness can reach 51.9 HRA, the yield strength can reach 550 MPa, the maximum machining error of the components is 4.73%, and the average surface roughness is 0.45 μm. Through dynamic hammering and high dynamic firing verification, SLM components meet the requirements for overload resistance. The results have proven that MEM technology can provide a new means for the processing of MEMS components applied in high dynamic environments. The parameters obtained in the conclusion can provide a design basis for the additive preparation of MEMS components.

文摘Rockbursts, which mainly affect mining roadways, are dynamic disasters arising from the surrounding rock under high stress. Understanding the interaction between supports and the surrounding rock is necessary for effective rockburst control. In this study, the squeezing behavior of the surrounding rock is analyzed in rockburst roadways, and a mechanical model of rockbursts is established considering the dynamic support stress, thus deriving formulas and providing characteristic curves for describing the interaction between the support and surrounding rock. Design principles and parameters of supports for rockburst control are proposed. The results show that only when the geostress magnitude exceeds a critical value can it drive the formation of rockburst conditions. The main factors influencing the convergence response and rockburst occurrence around roadways are geostress, rock brittleness, uniaxial compressive strength, and roadway excavation size. Roadway support devices can play a role in controlling rockburst by suppressing the squeezing evolution of the surrounding rock towards instability points of rockburst. Further, the higher the strength and the longer the impact stroke of support devices with constant resistance, the more easily multiple balance points can be formed with the surrounding rock to control rockburst occurrence. Supports with long impact stroke allow adaptation to varying geostress levels around the roadway, aiding in rockburst control. The results offer a quantitative method for designing support systems for rockburst-prone roadways. The design criterion of supports is determined by the intersection between the convergence curve of the surrounding rock and the squeezing deformation curve of the support devices.

文摘Theβsolidifiedγ-TiAl alloy holds important application value in the aerospace industry,while its com-plex phase compositions and geometric structures pose challenges to its microstructure control during the thermal-mechanical process.The microstructure evolution of Ti-43Al-4Nb-1Mo-0.2B alloy at 1200℃/0.01 s−1 was investigated to clarify the coupling role of dynamic recrystallization(DRX)and phase transformation.The results revealed that the rate of DRX inα2+γlamellar colonies was comparatively slower than that inβo+γmixed structure,instead being accompanied by intense lamellar kinking and rotation.The initiation and development rates of DRX inα2,βo,andγphases decreased sequentially.The asynchronous DRX of the various geometric structures and phase compositions resulted in the un-even deformed microstructure,and the dynamic softening induced by lamellar kinking and rotation was replaced by strengthened DRX as strain increased.Additionally,the blockyα2 phase and the terminals ofα2 lamellae were the preferential DRX sites owing to the abundant activated slip systems.Theα2→βo transformation within lamellar colonies facilitated DRX and fragment ofα2 lamellae,while theα2→γtransformation promoted the decomposition ofα2 lamellae and DRX ofγlamellae.Moreover,the var-iedβo+γmixed structures underwent complicated evolution:(1)Theγ→βo transformation occurred at boundaries of lamellar colonies,followed by simultaneous DRX ofγlamellar terminals and neighboringβo phase;(2)DRX occurred earlier within the band-likeβo phase,with the delayed DRX in enclosedγphase;(3)DRX within theβo synapses and neighboringγphase was accelerated owing to generation of elastic stress field;(4)Dispersedβo particles triggered particle stimulated nucleation(PSN)ofγphase.Eventually,atomic diffusion along crystal defects inβo andγphases caused fracture of band-likeβo phase and formation of massiveβo particles,impeding grain boundary migration and hindering DRXed grain growth ofγphase.

文摘In dynamic scenarios,visual simultaneous localization and mapping(SLAM)algorithms often incorrectly incorporate dynamic points during camera pose computation,leading to reduced accuracy and robustness.This paper presents a dynamic SLAM algorithm that leverages object detection and regional dynamic probability.Firstly,a parallel thread employs the YOLOX object detectionmodel to gather 2D semantic information and compensate for missed detections.Next,an improved K-means++clustering algorithm clusters bounding box regions,adaptively determining the threshold for extracting dynamic object contours as dynamic points change.This process divides the image into low dynamic,suspicious dynamic,and high dynamic regions.In the tracking thread,the dynamic point removal module assigns dynamic probability weights to the feature points in these regions.Combined with geometric methods,it detects and removes the dynamic points.The final evaluation on the public TUM RGB-D dataset shows that the proposed dynamic SLAM algorithm surpasses most existing SLAM algorithms,providing better pose estimation accuracy and robustness in dynamic environments.

文摘In this work,fow behavior and dynamic recrystallization(DRX)mechanism of a low carbon martensitic stainless bearing steel,CSS-42L,were investigated using a thermomechanical simulator under the temperature and strain rate ranges of 900 to 1100℃ and 0.1 to 20 s^(−1),respectively.The Arrhenius-type constitutive equation was established based on the fow stress curves.Moreover,the peak stress decreased with the increase in deformation temperature and the decrease in strain rate.There were two DRX mechanisms during hot deformation of the current studied steel,the main one being discontinuous dynamic recrystallization mechanism,acting through grain boundary bulging and migration,and the auxiliary one being continuous dynamic recrystallization mechanism,working through the rotation of sub-grains.On the basis of microstructural characterizations,power dissipation maps and fow instability maps,the optimized hot deformation parameters for CSS-42L bearing steel were determined as 1050℃/0.1 s^(−1) and 1100℃/1 s^(−1).
文摘Traumatic brain injury(TBI)is a public health problem with an undue economic burden that impacts nearly every age,ethnic,and gender group across the globe(Capizzi et al.,2020).TBIs are often sustained during a dynamic range of exposures to energetic environmental forces and as such outcomes are typically heterogeneous regarding severity and pathology(Capizzi et al.,2020).
文摘Revealing the structure evolution of interfacial active species during a dynamic catalytic process is a challenging but pivotal issue for the rational design of high-performance catalysts.Here,we successfully prepare sub-nanometric Pt clusters(~0.8 nm)encapsulated within the defects of CeO_(2)nanorods via an in-situ defect engineering methodology.The as-prepared Pt@d-CeO_(2)catalyst significantly boosts the activity and stability in the water-gas shift(WGS)reaction compared to other analogs.Based on controlled experiments and complementary(in-situ)spectroscopic studies,a reversible encapsulation induced by active site transformation between the Pt^(2+)-terminal hydroxyl and Pt^(δ+)-O vacancy species at the interface is revealed,which enables to evoke the enhanced performance.Our findings not only offer practical guidance for the design of high-efficiency catalysts but also bring a new understanding of the exceptional performance of WGS in a holistic view,which shows a great application potential in materials and catalysis.

文摘This study compares the microstructural evolution,dynamic recrystallization(DRX)behavior,tensile properties,and age-hardenability between the newly developed high-speed-extrudable BA56 alloy and those of the widely recognized AZ31 alloy in industry.Unlike the AZ31 alloy,which retains partially unrecrystallized grains,the high-speed-extruded BA56 alloy demonstrates a coarser but entirely recrystallized and more homogeneous microstructure.The fine-grained structure and abundant Mg_(3)Bi_(2) particles in the BA56 extrusion billet significantly enhance its DRX behavior,thus enabling rapid and complete recrystallization during extrusion.The BA56 alloy contains band-like fragmented Mg_(3)Bi_(2) particles and numerous fine Mg_(3)Bi_(2) particles distributed throughout the material,in contrast to the sparse Al_(8)Mn_(5) particles in the AZ31 alloy.These features contribute to superior mechanical properties of the BA56 alloy,which achieves tensile yield and ultimate tensile strengths of 205 and 292 MPa,respectively,compared to 196 and 270 MPa for the AZ31 alloy.The superior strength of the BA56 alloy,even with its coarser grain size,can be explained by its elevated Hall-Petch constant and the strengthening contribution from the fine Mg_(3)Bi_(2) particles.Additionally,the BA56 alloy demonstrates significant age-hardenability,achieving a 22%enhancement in hardness following T5 aging,attributed to the precipitation of nanoscale Mg_(3)Bi_(2) and Mg_(17)Al_(12) phases.By contrast,the AZ31 alloy shows minimal hardening due to the absence of precipitate formation during aging.These findings suggest that the BA56 alloy is a promising candidate for the production of extruded Mg components requiring a combination of high productivity,superior mechanical performance,and wide-ranging process adaptability.
