文摘The water content of cut flowers is a significant factor in their post-harvest quality.In this study,we examine the efficacy of silver nanoparticles(NS)on the longevity of cut gladiolus,with a focus on water state and distribution.We used Low-field nuclear magnetic resonance(LF-NMR)technology to identify three water fractions with different transverse relaxation times(T2)values:bound water T21(<10 ms),intermediate immobilized water T22(10-100 ms),and the slowest component free water T23(>10 ms).During the opening process,T23increased at stages 2 and 3 and then decreased,T22 decreased slowly,and T21 remained unchanged.Free water values were consistently higher than bound water and immobilized water and reached their maximum from stage 2 until stage 4,when the petals were extended and began to wilt.The vascular bundles responsible for transporting water had higher water content,as detected by proton density-weighted magnetic resonance imaging(MRI).Bound water and free water with NS pretreatments in bracts were initially lower but then two days later the signal amplitude of each water state exceeded those of the control,indicating that the treatment enhanced the water-holding capacity over time.Furthermore,NS pretreatments reduced the free water mobility of the cut flowers and inhibited stem decay.Additionally,we found that NS can enter the stem and are primarily transported upward along the xylem with water using scanning electron microscopy(SEM)and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy(EDS)technology.Overall,our findings indicate that NS pretreatment reduces free water in gladiolus cut flowers,enhancing their water retention and prolonging their vase life.

文摘Real-time identification of rock strength and cuttability based on monitoring while cutting during excavation is essential for key procedures such as the precise adjustment of excavation parameters and the in-situ modification of hard rocks.This study proposes an in-telligent approach for predicting rock strength and cuttability.A database comprising 132 data sets is established,containing cutting para-meters(such as cutting depth and pick angle),cutting responses(such as specific energy and instantaneous cutting rate),and rock mech-anical parameters collected from conical pick-cutting experiments.These parameters serve as input features for predicting the uniaxial compressive strength and tensile strength of rocks using regression fitting and machine learning methodologies.In addition,rock cuttabil-ity is classified using a combination of the analytic hierarchy process and fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method,and subsequently iden-tified through machine learning approaches.Various models are compared to determine the optimal predictive and classification models.The results indicate that the optimal model for uniaxial compressive strength and tensile strength prediction is the genetic algorithm-optimized backpropagation neural network model,and the optimal model for rock cuttability classification is the radial basis neural network model.

文摘Kirigami,through introducing cuts into a thin sheet,can greatly improve the stretchability of structures and also generate complex patterns,showing potentials in various applications.Interestingly,even with the same cutting pattern,the mechanical response of kirigami metamaterials can exhibit significant differences depending on the cutting angles in respect to the loading direction.In this work,we investigate the structural deformation of kirigami metamaterials with square domains and varied cutting angles of 0°and 45°.We further introduce a second level of cutting on the basis of the first cutting pattern.By combining experiments and finite element simulations,it is found that,compared to the commonly used 0°cuts,the two-level kirigami metamaterials with 45°cuts exhibit a unique alternating arrangement phenomenon of expanded/unexpanded states in the loading process,which also results in distinct stress–strain response.Through tuning the cutting patterns of metamaterials with 45°cuts,precise control of the rotation of the kirigami unit is realized,leading to kirigami metamaterials with encryption properties.The current work demonstrates the programmability of structural deformation in hierarchical kirigami metamaterials through controlling the local cutting modes.

文摘The water conductivity of karst collapsed column is affected by multiple factors such as the characteristics of its own column filling,structure and mining disturbance.As a structural water-conducting channel,fault usually plays a controlling role in hydrogeological structure.During the process of mine water hazard prevention and control,it was discovered that the lithology composition,compaction and cementation degree and water physical properties of karst collapsed column fillings were all non-conducting water,but due to the influence of combined development faults,some exploration drill holes showed concentrated water outflow.Based on this,the scientific hypothesis was proposed that fault cutting leads to water conduction in karst collapsed columns.The study comprehensively used methods like chronology,exploration data analysis,and hydrochemical testing to analyze the chronological relationship between faults and karst collapsed columns,their spatial relationship,outlet point distribution and water chemical properties,and the impact of faults on the water-conductivity of karst collapsed columns,which proved the effect of fault cutting on changing water conductivity of karst collapsed column.The research showed that later fault cutting through karst collapsed columns turned the originally non-conductive karst collapsed columns into water-conductive collapsed columns at the fault plane,creating a longitudinally connected water-conducting channel.A new model of fault cutting karst collapsed column to change the original water conductivity of karst collapsed column was proposed.The research results can provide a theoretical basis for the prediction of the water conductivity of the karst collapsed column.According to whether the karst collapsed column was cut by the fault,it was predicted theoretically,so as to determine the key areas of water conductivity detection and prevention and control,and has broad application prospects under the background of source control of mine water disaster.

文摘To address the issue of uneven temperature distribution in shale gas oil-based drill cuttings pyrolysis furnaces,a numerical model was developed using Fluent software.The effects of nitrogen flow rate,heating tube spacing,and furnace dimensions on the internal temperature field were thoroughly analyzed from a mechanistic perspective.The results indicated that non-uniform radiation from the heating tubes and flow disturbances induced by the nitrogen stream were the primary causes of localized heat concentration.Under no-load conditions,the maximum deviation between simulated and on-site measured temperatures was 1.5%,validating the model’s accuracy.Further-more,this study investigated the trade-offs between temperature uniformity,energy consumption,and construction costs.The findings provide a crucial design basis and a reliable simulation platform for developing and optimizing pyrolysis equipment.

文摘It is generally believed that cuttings have a significant impact on the forces of tubular string in extended-reach drilling.However,there are few studies attempted to investigate and quantify it.In this paper,a three-layer transient model for cuttings transport is established to simulate the characteristics of dynamic cuttings transport over time under various conditions.The simulation results indicate that the change in drilling parameters like ROP(rate of penetration)and flow rate of drilling fluid will lead to the non-uniform distribution of cuttings bed.And the alternation of drilling and circulation will lead to a clear wavy distribution of cuttings bed in the wellbore.Then,the effect of cuttings on tubular string is obtained through a large number of numerical simulations and the nonlinear regression method,and this influence is introduced into the conventional stiff rod model of tubular string.Finally,the transient model for cuttings transport is coupled with the modified tubular mechanic model and applies to a case study of extended-reach drilling.The results show that there is a delay effect for the effect of the changes in drilling parameters on the ground torques because the changes in drilling parameters occur instantaneously,while the changes in cuttings bed distribution are slow due to its low transport velocity.Based on the coupling analysis of transient cuttings transport and tubular mechanical behaviors,the drilling parameters are optimized,including the recommended adjustment period and adjustment range for the ROP,the proper drilling time for the increased flow rate.Furthermore,the circulation and back reaming are optimized.For circulation,the keys are choosing appropriate time interval between the two adjacent circulations and the time for each circulation.To avoid pipe stuck,at least 20 min of circulation is required to remove the cuttings bed near the large-sized BHA((Bottom Hole Assembly))before back reaming,and the maximum back reaming velocity should be smaller than the minimum transport velocity of the uniform bed.

文摘Water-weakening presents a promising strategy for the in-situ improvement of rock cuttability.This study unveils the influences of water saturation on the mechanical response and fragmentation characteristics of rock samples.A series of rock-cutting tests using conical pick indentation was conducted on three types of sandstone samples under both dry and water-saturated conditions.The relationships between cutting force and indentation depth,as well as typical cuttability indices are determined and compared for dry and water-saturated samples.The experimental results reveal that the presence of water facilitates shearing failure in rock samples,as well as alleviates the fluctuations in the cutting force-indentation depth curve Furthermore,the peak cutting force(F_(p)),cutting work(W_(p)),and specific energy(SE)undergo apparent decrease after water saturation,whereas the trend in the indentation depth at rock failure(D_(f))varies across different rock types.Additionally,the water-induced percentage reductions in F_(p)and SE correlate positively with the quartz and swelling clay content within the rocks,suggesting that the cuttability improvement due to water saturation is attributed to the combined effects of stress corrosion and frictional reduction.These findings carry significant implications for improving rock cuttability in mechanized excavation of hard rock formations.

文摘Vibration cutting has emerged as a promising method for creating surface functional microstructures.However,achieving precise tool setting is a time-consuming process that significantly impacts process efficiency.This study proposes an intelligent approach for tool setting in vibration cutting using machine vision and hearing,divided into two steps.In the first step,machine vision is employed to achieve rough precision in tool setting within tens of micrometers.Subsequently,in the second step,machine hearing utilizes sound pickup to capture vibration audio signals,enabling fine tool adjustment within 1μm precision.The relationship between the spectral intensity of vibration audio and cutting depth is analyzed to establish criteria for tool–workpiece contact.Finally,the efficacy of this approach is validated on an ultra-precision platform,demonstrating that the automated tool-setting process takes no more than 74 s.The total cost of the vision and hearing sensors is less than$1500.
