A total...This study was conducted at Fafan Research Center, Golajo research site to evaluate the effect of Moringa stenopetala and pigeon pea leaf supplementation on growth performance of short-eared Somali goat breed. A total of fifteen yearling indigenous short-eared Somali goat breeds with an initial weight of 15.2 ± 0.30 kg were assigned to three treatment groups using completely randomized design. Pigeon pea (Pp) and Moringa stenopetala (MS) feeds were formulated using 0%, 5%, and 10% inclusion levels of MSLM and PPLM as experimental diets, respectively. The feed of the experiment was prepared in two levels (2 kg of Moringa stenopetala and 2 kg of pigeon pea) and was supplemented to experimental animals in treatments one and two, respectively. The average e initial body weight of selected male goats was 18.82 ± 0.37, 18.8 ± 0.37 and 17.8 ± 0.37 kg under treatment groups T1, T2 and control respectively. Data was analyzed using general linear model (GLM) procedure of SAS computer package Version 9.0 (SAS, 2002). The final weights gain (FWG) of goats on T1 and T2 of experimental group was significantly (P 0.05) the final weight gain of goat supplemented on Moringa stenopetala (T1) and pigeon pea levels (T2). The mean average weight gains (AWG) obtained from the supplemented group in this study were 7.50 ± 0.37 and 7.82 ± 0.37 kg for T1 and T2, whereas mean weight gains for un-supplemented goats were found to be 6.26 ± 0.37 kg. Feeding of dried Moringa stenopetala and pigeon pea leaves mixture improved body weights and average daily body weight gain without affecting feed intake and overall health of Somali goat breed. As Moringa stenopetala and pigeon pea leaves are rich nitrogen/protein source, they can be used effectively as substitute for conventional concentrate in the diet of growing goats at small holder farmer’s level where they can be grown in abundance. Therefore, for higher quality of forage and higher total DM yield for animal feeding, moringa should be harvested at wider harvesting intervals of at least 6th- to 8th-week intervals. Similarly, for pigeon peas, 4- to 6-week harvesting interval can result in optimum forage as well as feed quality and resulted in better growth performances for Somali short-eared goat breeds.展开更多

文摘The Jahn-Teller effect of Mn^(3+)brings drastic structural changes to MnO_(2)-based materials and accelerates the destruction and deactivation of the internal structure of the materials,thus leading to severe capacity fading and phase change of MnO_(2)-based materials in aqueous zinc ion batteries(AZIBs).Here,this study doped high valent vanadium ions into MnO_(2)(VMO-x)to inhibit manganese's Jahn-Teller effect.Through a series of characterizations,such as X-ray diffraction(XRD),Raman spectroscopy,and scanning electron microscopy(SEM),it was discovered that the introduction of vanadium ions effectively increased the interlayer spacing of MnO_(2),facilitating the transport of ions into the interlayer.Additionally,Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FTIR)and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS)demonstrated vanadium doped could effectively adjust the electronic structure,decreasing the average oxidation state of manganese,thereby inhibiting the Jahn-Teller effect and significantly enhancing the stability of the VMO-x cathode.The theoretical calculation showed that introducing vanadium ions enhanced the interaction between the main material and Zn^(2+),optimized its electron transport capacity,and led to better electrical conductivity and reaction kinetics of the VMO-5.Benefiting from this,the VMO-5 cathode exhibited an outstanding capacity of 283 mAh/g and maintained a capacity retention rate of 79%after 2000 cycles,demonstrating excellent electrochemical performance.Furthermore,the mechanism of H^(+)/Zn^(2+)co-intercalation/deintercalation was demonstrated through mechanism analysis.Finally,the test results of the pouch cell demonstrated the excellent flexibility and safety exhibited by the VMO-5 make it have great potential in flexible devices.This work presented a novel approach to doping high valence metal ions into manganese-based electrodes for AZIBs.

文摘La-Mg-Ni-based hydrogen storage alloys with superlattice structures are the new generation anode material for nickel metal hydride(Ni-MH)batteries owing to the advantages of high capacity and exceptional activation properties.However,the cycling stability is not currently satisfactory enough which plagues its application.Herein,a strategy of partially substituting La with the Y element is proposed to boost the capacity durability of La-Mg-Ni-based alloys.Furthermore,phase structure regulation is implemented simultaneously to obtain the A5 B19-type alloy with good crystal stability specifically.It is found that Y promotes the phase formation of the Pr5 Co19-type phase after annealing at 985℃.The alloy containing Y contributes to the superior rate capability resulting from the promoted hydrogen diffusion rate.Notably,Y substitution enables strengthening the anti-pulverization ability of the alloy in terms of increasing the volume match between[A_(2)B_(4)]and[AB5]subunits,and effectively enhances the anti-corrosion ability of the alloy due to high electronegativity,realizing improved long-term cycling stability of the alloy from 74.2%to 78.5%after cycling 300 times.The work is expected to shed light on the composition and structure design of the La-Mg-Ni-based hydrogen storage alloy for Ni-MH batteries.

文摘Wide-temperature applications of sodium-ion batteries(SIBs)are severely limited by the sluggish ion insertion/diffusion kinetics of conversion-type anodes.Quantum-sized transition metal dichalcogenides possess unique advantages of charge delocalization and enrich uncoordinated electrons and short-range transfer kinetics,which are crucial to achieve rapid low-temperature charge transfer and high-temperature interface stability.Herein,a quantum-scale FeS_(2) loaded on three-dimensional Ti_(3)C_(2) MXene skeletons(FeS_(2) QD/MXene)fabricated as SIBs anode,demonstrating impressive performance under wide-temperature conditions(−35 to 65).The theoretical calculations combined with experimental characterization interprets that the unsaturated coordination edges of FeS_(2) QD can induce delocalized electronic regions,which reduces electrostatic potential and significantly facilitates efficient Na+diffusion across a broad temperature range.Moreover,the Ti_(3)C_(2) skeleton reinforces structural integrity via Fe-O-Ti bonding,while enabling excellent dispersion of FeS_(2) QD.As expected,FeS_(2) QD/MXene anode harvests capacities of 255.2 and 424.9 mAh g^(−1) at 0.1 A g^(−1) under−35 and 65,and the energy density of FeS_(2) QD/MXene//NVP full cell can reach to 162.4 Wh kg^(−1) at−35,highlighting its practical potential for wide-temperatures conditions.This work extends the uncoordinated regions induced by quantum-size effects for exceptional Na^(+)ion storage and diffusion performance at wide-temperatures environment.
文摘This study was conducted at Fafan Research Center, Golajo research site to evaluate the effect of Moringa stenopetala and pigeon pea leaf supplementation on growth performance of short-eared Somali goat breed. A total of fifteen yearling indigenous short-eared Somali goat breeds with an initial weight of 15.2 ± 0.30 kg were assigned to three treatment groups using completely randomized design. Pigeon pea (Pp) and Moringa stenopetala (MS) feeds were formulated using 0%, 5%, and 10% inclusion levels of MSLM and PPLM as experimental diets, respectively. The feed of the experiment was prepared in two levels (2 kg of Moringa stenopetala and 2 kg of pigeon pea) and was supplemented to experimental animals in treatments one and two, respectively. The average e initial body weight of selected male goats was 18.82 ± 0.37, 18.8 ± 0.37 and 17.8 ± 0.37 kg under treatment groups T1, T2 and control respectively. Data was analyzed using general linear model (GLM) procedure of SAS computer package Version 9.0 (SAS, 2002). The final weights gain (FWG) of goats on T1 and T2 of experimental group was significantly (P 0.05) the final weight gain of goat supplemented on Moringa stenopetala (T1) and pigeon pea levels (T2). The mean average weight gains (AWG) obtained from the supplemented group in this study were 7.50 ± 0.37 and 7.82 ± 0.37 kg for T1 and T2, whereas mean weight gains for un-supplemented goats were found to be 6.26 ± 0.37 kg. Feeding of dried Moringa stenopetala and pigeon pea leaves mixture improved body weights and average daily body weight gain without affecting feed intake and overall health of Somali goat breed. As Moringa stenopetala and pigeon pea leaves are rich nitrogen/protein source, they can be used effectively as substitute for conventional concentrate in the diet of growing goats at small holder farmer’s level where they can be grown in abundance. Therefore, for higher quality of forage and higher total DM yield for animal feeding, moringa should be harvested at wider harvesting intervals of at least 6th- to 8th-week intervals. Similarly, for pigeon peas, 4- to 6-week harvesting interval can result in optimum forage as well as feed quality and resulted in better growth performances for Somali short-eared goat breeds.

文摘Surface engineering plays a crucial role in improving the performance of high energy materials,and polydopamine(PDA)is widely used in the field of energetic materials for surface modification and functionalization.In order to obtain high-quality HMX@PDA-based PBX explosives with high sphericity and a narrow particle size distribution,composite microspheres were prepared using co-axial droplet microfluidic technology.The formation mechanism,thermal behavior,mechanical sensitivity,electrostatic spark sensitivity,compressive strength,and combustion performance of the microspheres were investigated.The results show that PDA can effectively enhance the interfacial interaction between the explosive particles and the binder under the synergistic effect of chemical bonds and the physical"mechanical interlocking"structure.Interface reinforcement causes the thermal decomposition temperature of the sample microspheres to move to a higher temperature,with the sensitivity to impact,friction,and electrostatic sparks(for S-1)increasing by 12.5%,31.3%,and 81.5%respectively,and the compressive strength also increased by 30.7%,effectively enhancing the safety performance of the microspheres.Therefore,this study provides an effective and universal strategy for preparing high-quality functional explosives,and also provides some reference for the safe use of energetic materials in practical applications.

文摘NH_(3)-SCR(SCR:Selective catalytic reduction)is an effective technology for the de-NO_(x)process from both mobile and stationary pollution sources,and the most commonly used catalysts are the vanadia-based catalysts.An innovative V_(2)O_(5)-CeO_(2)/TaTiO_(x)catalyst for NO_(x)removal was prepared in this study.The influences of Ce and Ta in the V_(2)O_(5)-CeO_(2)/TaTiO_(x)catalyst on the SCR performance and physicochemical properties were investigated.The V_(2)O_(5)-CeO_(2)/TaTiO_(x)catalyst not only exhibited excellent SCR activity in a wide temperature window,but also presented strong resistance to H_(2)Oand SO_(2)at 275◦C.A series of characterizationmethods was used to study the catalysts,including H2-temperature programmed reduction,X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy,NH_(3)-temperature programmed desorption,etc.It was discovered that a synergistic effect existed between Ce and Ta species.The introduction of Ce and Ta enlarged the specific surface area,increased the amount of acid sites and the ratio of Ce^(3+),(V^(3+)+V^(4+))and Oα,and strengthened the redox capability which were related to synergistic effect between Ce and Ta species,significantly improving the NH_(3)-SCR activity.

文摘As the goal of"low carbon"sustainable development becomes more salient,the corporations'environmental,social,and governance(ESG)practices are under higher visibility.How to promote the ESG performance of corporations has become a big challenge that needs to be solved.Spatial econometrics methods based on panel data on listed corporations in the period from 2018 to 2023 are used in the paper to empirically analyze the peer effect of a corporation from the view of strategic interaction.The results found relatively positive industry peer effects as well as regional peer effects.However,the latter is much weaker.Industry-wise results indicate that most sectors demonstrate positive peer competition on ESG issues,with only a few,like the special equipment manufacturing industry,not showing significant peer effects.The empirical results in this paper support the mode of cooperative interaction among firms,help broaden the scope of understanding factors that encourage ESG practices,and suggest relevant policies for boosting corporate social responsibilities and sustainable development through encouraging factors.

文摘Re-entrant honeycombs are widely used in safeguard structures due to their geometric simplicity and excellent energy absorption capacities.However,traditional re-entrant honeycombs exhibit insufficient stiffness and stability owing to the lack of internal support.This paper proposes a new hybrid honeycomb by integrating a chiral component inside the re-entrant honeycomb.Since Young's modulus is a key parameter to evaluate the energy absorption performance and stiffness,an analytical model is given to predict the effective Young's modulus of the proposed hybrid honeycomb.It is found that the optimal design scheme is to directly insert a circular ring inside the re-entrant honeycomb.The normalized specific energy absorption(SEA)of the hybrid honeycomb is 95%larger than that of the traditional re-entrant honeycomb.The normalized SEA first increases to a peak value and then decreases with the cell wall thickness.The optimal thickness of the cell wall for the maximum SEA is derived in terms of the geometric configuration of the unit cell.The normalized SEA first decreases to a valley value and then increases with the re-entrant angle.A longer horizontal cell wall results in a smaller normalized SEA.This paper provides a new design method for safeguard structures with high stiffness and energy absorption performance.

文摘To elucidate the yielding performance of compact yielding anchor cables in working state,a yielding mechanical model incorporating extrusion friction and fastening rotation under confining pressure is constructed.The yielding resistance enhancement effect(ω)caused by working environment constraints is evaluated through multi-layer composite sleeve hole expansion analysis,forming a theoretical framework for calculating the working yielding force.Laboratory and in-situ pull-out tests are conducted to determine the yielding performance and validate the analytical theory.The main conclusions are:(1)Yielding force and energy-release capacity increase withω,significantly outperforming the unconfined state.(2)In-situ tests under varying rockmass and geostress conditions(F1–F3)determine the yielding force increases to 183.4–290.1,204.0–290.8,and 235.0–327.1 kN.(3)The slight deviation(–12.5%to 6.2%)between the theoretical and measured yielding force confirms that the analytical theory effectively describes the working yielding performance.(4)ωincreases with higher geostress and improved rock mechanical properties,with initial geostress(σ_(0))and elastic modulus of surrounding rock(E_(3))identified as critical parameters.

文摘ZrCoRE(RE denotes rare earth elements)non-evaporable getter films have significant applications in vacuum packaging of micro-electro mechanical system devices because of their excellent gas adsorption performance,low activation temperature and environmental friendliness.The films were deposited using DC magnetron sputtering with argon and krypton gases under various deposition pressures.The effects of sputtering gas type and pressure on the morphology and hydrogen adsorption performance of ZrCoRE films were investigated.Results show that the films prepared in Ar exhibit a relatively dense structure with fewer grain boundaries.The increase in Ar pressure results in more grain boundaries and gap structures in the films.In contrast,films deposited in Kr display a higher density of grain boundaries and cluster structures,and the films have an obvious columnar crystal structure,with numerous interfaces and gaps distributed between the columnar structures,providing more paths for gas diffusion.As Kr pressure increases,the film demonstrates more pronounced continuous columnar structure growth,accompanied by deeper and wider grain boundaries.This structural configuration provides a larger specific surface area,which significantly improves the hydrogen adsorption speed and capacity.Consequently,high Ar and Kr pressures are beneficial to improve the adsorption performance.

文摘This study aims to assess the comprehensive strengthening effect of a steel-ultra high performance concrete(UHPC)composite strengthening method.The axial force-moment interaction curve(N-M curve)was calculated in a novel way,using cross-sectional strains at ultimate states as well as real-time stress measurements for each material.The enclosed area of the N-M curve was defined as a comprehensive performance index for the system.We validate our approach with comparisons to numerical modeling and full-scale four-point bending experiments.Additionally,strengthening effects were compared for different sagging and hogging moments based on material stress responses,and the impact of various strengthening parameters was analyzed.We find that the N-M curve of the strengthened cross-section envelops that of the un-strengthened cross-section.Notably,improvements in flexural capacity are greater under sagging moments during the large eccentric failure stage,and greater under hogging moments during the small eccentric failure stage.This discrepancy is attributed to the strength utilization of strengthening materials.These findings provide a reference for understanding the strengthening effects and parameters of steel-UHPC composite.

文摘NH_(4)V_(4)O_(10)(NVO)is considered a promising cathode material for aqueous zinc-ion batteries due to its high theoretical capacity.However,its practical application is limited by irreversible deamination,structural collapse,and sluggish reaction kinetics during cycling.Herein,K+and C_(3)N_(4)co-intercalated NVO(KNVO-C_(3)N_(4))nanosheets with expanded interlayer spacing are synthesized for the first time to achieve high-rate,stable,and wide-temperature cathodes.Molecular dynamics and experimental results confirm that there is an optimal C_(3)N_(4)content to achieve higher reaction kinetics.The synergistic effect of K^(+)and C_(3)N_(4)co-intercalation significantly reduces the electrostatic interaction between Zn^(2+)and the[VOn]layer,improves the specific capacity and cycling stability.Consequently,the KNVO-C_(3)N_(4)electrode displays outstanding electrochemical performance at room temperature and under extreme environments.It exhibits excellent rate performance(228.4 m Ah g^(-1)at 20 A g^(-1)),long-term cycling stability(174.2 m Ah g^(-1) after 10,000 cycles at 20 A g^(-1)),and power/energy density(210.0 Wh kg^(-1)at 14,200 W kg^(-1))at room temperature.Notably,it shows remarkable storage performance at-20℃(111.3 m Ah g^(-1)at 20 A g^(-1))and 60℃(208.6 m Ah g^(-1)at 20 A g^(-1)).This strategy offers a novel approach to developing high-performance cathodes capable of operating under extreme temperatures.

文摘The self-healing function is considered one of the effective ways to address structural damage and improve interfacial bonding in Energetic composite materials(ECMs).However,the currently prepared ECMs with self-healing function have problems such as irregular particle shape and uneven distribution of components,which affect the efficient play of self-healing function.In this paper,HMX-based energetic microspheres with self-healing function were successfully prepared by microchannel technology,which showed excellent self-healing effect in both Polymer-bonded explosives(PBXs)and Composite solid propellants(CSPs).The experimental results show that the HMX-based energetic microspheres with different binder contents prepared by microchannel technology show regular shape,HMX crystal particles are uniformly wrapped by self-healing binder(GAPU).When the content of GAPU in HMX-based energetic microspheres is 10%,PBXs show excellent self-healing effect and mechanical safety is improved by 400%(raw HMX vs S4,5 J vs 25 J).As a high-energy component,the burning rate of CSPs is increased by 359.4%,the time(burning temperature>1700℃)is prolonged by 333.3%,and the maximum impulse force is increased by 107.3%(CSP-H vs CSP-S4,0.84 mm/s vs 3.87 mm/s,0.06 s vs 0.26 s,0.82 m N vs 1.70 m N).It also has excellent storage performance.The preparation of HMX-based energetic microspheres with self-healing function by microchannel technology provides a new strategy to improve the storage performance of ECMs and the combustion performance of CSPs.
文摘Ni_(2)CoS_(4)was prepared by the liquid‑phase method and applied to the benzyl alcohol electro‑oxidation reaction(BAOR),demonstrating excellent catalytic activity[with a current density of 271 mA·cm^(-2)at 1.40 V(vs RHE)]and long‑term stability.The S‑anion effect can regulate the charge distribution on the catalyst surface,thereby enhancing the additional adsorption capacity of OH-at the Co sites.By combining material characterization and theoretical calculations,it can be observed that this process can increase the concentration of the OH^(*)intermediate,accelerate the activation process of the Ni site,and ultimately achieve an improvement in overall activity and stability.

文摘Four types of Mg-5Zn porous scaffolds with different pore geometries,including body-centered cubic(bcc),the rhombic dodecahedron(RD),gyroid(G),and primitive(P)types,were designed and fabricated using selective laser melting.Their forming quality,compression mechanical properties,and degradation behavior were investigated.Results indicate that the fabricated scaffolds exhibit good dimensional accuracy,and the surface chemical polishing treatment significantly improves the forming quality and reduces porosity error in porous scaffolds.Compared to the ones with rod structures(bcc,RD),the scaffolds with surface structures(G,P)have less powder particle adhesion.The G porous scaffold exhibits the best forming quality for the same design porosity.The predominant failure mode of scaffolds during compression is a 45°shear fracture.At a porosity of 75%,the compression property of all scaffolds meets the compressive property requirements of cancellous bone,while bcc and G structures show relatively better compression property.After immersion in Hank's solution for 168 h,the B-2-75% pore structure scaffold exhibits severe localized corrosion,with fractures in partial pillar connections.In contrast,the G-3-75% pore structure scaffold mainly undergoes uniform corrosion,maintaining structural integrity,and its corrosion rate and loss of compressive properties are less than those of the B-2-75%structure.After comparison,the G-pore structure scaffold is preferred.
