High TMR ratio of 59.2% at 4.2 K and 41.3% at RT were observed for this junction after annealing at 275 degreesC for an hour. The temperature dependence of TMR ratio and resistances from 4.2 to 300 K at 1.0 mV bias and the de bias voltage dependence of TMR ratio at 4.2 K from 0 to 80 mV can be evaluated by a comparison of self-consistent calculations with the experimental data based on the magnon-assisted inelastic excitation model and theory. An anisotropic wavelength cutoff energy of spin-wave spectrum in magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs) was suggested, which is necessary for self-consistent calculations, based on a series of IET spectra observed in the MTJs.展开更多

accompanied by some degree of cardiotoxicity.Epidemiological data indicate that approximately 30%of cancer survivors ultimately die from cardiovascular disease.Among the cardiotoxic agents,the anthracycline doxorubicin(DOX)is the most widely used.It effectively suppresses a variety of malignant tumors——including breast cancer,lymphoma,and acute leukemia——but its cardiac toxicity limits further escalation of clinical dosing.Literature reports identify a cumulative dose of≥250 mg/m²as the threshold of high risk,with roughly 25%of patients receiving DOX developing varying degrees of myocardial injury;severe cases progress to heart failure.Even at cumulative doses below the traditional safety limit,some patients exhibit cardiac dysfunction after the first administration,suggesting that cardiotoxicity is not solely a linear function of dose.DOX related cardiotoxicity can be classified as acute(hours to days after administration),sub acute(weeks to months),and chronic/late onset(years later).Most patients initially exhibit only mild reductions in left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF)or subtle abnormalities in global longitudinal strain(GLS),often without symptoms.Recently,cardiac biomarkers(cTn,NT proBNP)combined with high sensitivity echocardiography(speckle tracking)have been recommended for monitoring high risk individuals,enabling detection of subclinical injury before overt LVEF decline.Currently,several preventive and therapeutic approaches are used in clinical practice,which can be summarized into the following four points.(1)Dose limitation and administration strategies:fractionated low dose regimens,liposomal encapsulation,or continuous infusion lower peak plasma concentrations,thereby reducing cardiac exposure.(2)Pharmacologic prophylaxis:βblockers(e.g.,carvedilol)and ACE inhibitors/ARBs have shown protective effects on LVEF in some randomized trials,though results remain inconsistent and require larger confirmatory studies.(3)Metabolic targeted interventions:animal experiments indicate that activation of PPARαor supplementation with L carnitine restores fatty acid oxidation and improves ATP generation,suggesting metabolic modulators as promising cardioprotective candidates.(4)Lifestyle modifications:regular aerobic exercise up regulates mitochondrial biogenesis genes(PGC-1α)and reduces reactive oxygen species(ROS)production;small clinical studies have demonstrated a potential benefit in attenuating cTnT elevation.However,DOX-induced cardiotoxicity has not been effectively controlled,indicating that the core mechanism underlying DOX‑related cardiac toxicity remains unidentified.Cardiomyocytes are high energy demand cells,and metabolic dysregulation is considered a central component of DOX induced cardiotoxicity.DOX disrupts myocardial metabolic balance through several interrelated pathways.(1)Oxidative stress and mitochondrial damage:DOX generates abundant ROS within cells,leading to mitochondrial membrane potential loss,lipid peroxidation,and iron accumulation,which suppress electron transport chain activity and markedly reduce ATP synthesis efficiency.(2)Autophagy dysregulation:DOX interferes with autophagic flux,preventing the clearance of damaged mitochondria and further aggravating apoptosis and inflammatory responses.(3)Inflammation and cytokine release:oxidative stress activates NF‑κB,up-regulating pro inflammatory cytokines such as TNF‑αand IL-6,creating a chronic inflammatory microenvironment that weakens myocardial contractility.(4)Epigenetic modifications:studies have shown that DOX alters DNA methylation and histone acetylation patterns in cardiomyocytes,affecting the expression of key metabolic genes(e.g.,PGC-1α,CPT-1)and further inhibiting fatty acidβoxidation.These mechanisms collectively lead to suppressed fatty acid oxidation and compensatory up regulation of glycolysis,manifested by an elevated lactate/pyruvate ratio,accumulation of medium chain acyl carnitines,and a pronounced decline in ATP production.The resulting energy deficit precipitates left ventricular contractile dysfunction and,ultimately,heart failure.Despite extensive basic and clinical research on DOX cardiotoxicity,a unified risk assessment model and precise interventions targeting metabolic disturbances remain lacking.This review systematically summarizes recent progress on DOX induced cardiotoxicity and highlights that impairment of myocardial energy metabolism is a central mechanism of injury,thereby deepened our understanding of how impaired myocardial energy metabolism drives DOX induced injury,we can move toward safer chemotherapy protocols that achieve“cure cancer without harming the heart”.展开更多

A striking feature of the present work is the variational method with taking into account effects of the nonspherical distribution of electrons explicitly. Comparing the present results with those of the conventional spherical approximation, the systematical improvement can be found. This means that effects of the nonspherical distribution of electrons may play an essential role on the description of the atomic structures.展开更多

In Portugal, electricity system decarbonisation relies heavily on utility-scale solar energy(USSE) facilities, yet the spatial extent of land transformation associated with photovoltaic development has not been systematically assessed. This study provides an assessment of the land occupancy of USSE facilities and associated land use and land cover(LULC) changes in continental Portugal over the past two decades, as well as their spatial relationship with areas designated for land and nature conservation. A geospatial database of USSE installations(≥1 MW) was developed through the integration of multiple data sources using geographic information systems(GIS). The geometric consistency of spatial features was ensured through harmonisation and validation procedures involving GIS-based corrections supported by Sentinel-2 satellite imagery. Spatial overlay analyses were conducted with multitemporal LULC datasets and with land-use planning constraints, including areas classified for nature conservation, ecological reserves, and agricultural reserves. The results indicate that USSE deployment has been predominantly located in the southern regions of Portugal, although the location of planned projects indicates a northward shift. The implementation of USSE facilities has been mainly associated with LULC changes in forest land, agricultural areas, pastures and shrubland. Spatial overlaps were observed with areas classified within the national ecological and agricultural reserves.These patterns may be indicative of growing land-use conflicts, but the extent to which these developments align with land-use planning objectives and conservation priorities requires further examination.展开更多

文摘As oncologic therapies continue to advance,the overall survival of cancer patients has markedly increased.Nevertheless,virtually every anticancer treatment modality is accompanied by some degree of cardiotoxicity.Epidemiological data indicate that approximately 30%of cancer survivors ultimately die from cardiovascular disease.Among the cardiotoxic agents,the anthracycline doxorubicin(DOX)is the most widely used.It effectively suppresses a variety of malignant tumors——including breast cancer,lymphoma,and acute leukemia——but its cardiac toxicity limits further escalation of clinical dosing.Literature reports identify a cumulative dose of≥250 mg/m²as the threshold of high risk,with roughly 25%of patients receiving DOX developing varying degrees of myocardial injury;severe cases progress to heart failure.Even at cumulative doses below the traditional safety limit,some patients exhibit cardiac dysfunction after the first administration,suggesting that cardiotoxicity is not solely a linear function of dose.DOX related cardiotoxicity can be classified as acute(hours to days after administration),sub acute(weeks to months),and chronic/late onset(years later).Most patients initially exhibit only mild reductions in left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF)or subtle abnormalities in global longitudinal strain(GLS),often without symptoms.Recently,cardiac biomarkers(cTn,NT proBNP)combined with high sensitivity echocardiography(speckle tracking)have been recommended for monitoring high risk individuals,enabling detection of subclinical injury before overt LVEF decline.Currently,several preventive and therapeutic approaches are used in clinical practice,which can be summarized into the following four points.(1)Dose limitation and administration strategies:fractionated low dose regimens,liposomal encapsulation,or continuous infusion lower peak plasma concentrations,thereby reducing cardiac exposure.(2)Pharmacologic prophylaxis:βblockers(e.g.,carvedilol)and ACE inhibitors/ARBs have shown protective effects on LVEF in some randomized trials,though results remain inconsistent and require larger confirmatory studies.(3)Metabolic targeted interventions:animal experiments indicate that activation of PPARαor supplementation with L carnitine restores fatty acid oxidation and improves ATP generation,suggesting metabolic modulators as promising cardioprotective candidates.(4)Lifestyle modifications:regular aerobic exercise up regulates mitochondrial biogenesis genes(PGC-1α)and reduces reactive oxygen species(ROS)production;small clinical studies have demonstrated a potential benefit in attenuating cTnT elevation.However,DOX-induced cardiotoxicity has not been effectively controlled,indicating that the core mechanism underlying DOX‑related cardiac toxicity remains unidentified.Cardiomyocytes are high energy demand cells,and metabolic dysregulation is considered a central component of DOX induced cardiotoxicity.DOX disrupts myocardial metabolic balance through several interrelated pathways.(1)Oxidative stress and mitochondrial damage:DOX generates abundant ROS within cells,leading to mitochondrial membrane potential loss,lipid peroxidation,and iron accumulation,which suppress electron transport chain activity and markedly reduce ATP synthesis efficiency.(2)Autophagy dysregulation:DOX interferes with autophagic flux,preventing the clearance of damaged mitochondria and further aggravating apoptosis and inflammatory responses.(3)Inflammation and cytokine release:oxidative stress activates NF‑κB,up-regulating pro inflammatory cytokines such as TNF‑αand IL-6,creating a chronic inflammatory microenvironment that weakens myocardial contractility.(4)Epigenetic modifications:studies have shown that DOX alters DNA methylation and histone acetylation patterns in cardiomyocytes,affecting the expression of key metabolic genes(e.g.,PGC-1α,CPT-1)and further inhibiting fatty acidβoxidation.These mechanisms collectively lead to suppressed fatty acid oxidation and compensatory up regulation of glycolysis,manifested by an elevated lactate/pyruvate ratio,accumulation of medium chain acyl carnitines,and a pronounced decline in ATP production.The resulting energy deficit precipitates left ventricular contractile dysfunction and,ultimately,heart failure.Despite extensive basic and clinical research on DOX cardiotoxicity,a unified risk assessment model and precise interventions targeting metabolic disturbances remain lacking.This review systematically summarizes recent progress on DOX induced cardiotoxicity and highlights that impairment of myocardial energy metabolism is a central mechanism of injury,thereby deepened our understanding of how impaired myocardial energy metabolism drives DOX induced injury,we can move toward safer chemotherapy protocols that achieve“cure cancer without harming the heart”.

文摘In order to address environmental pollution and resource depletion caused by traditional power generation,this paper proposes an adaptive iterative dynamic-balance optimization algorithm that integrates the Improved Dung Beetle Optimizer(IDBO)with VariationalMode Decomposition(VMD).The IDBO-VMD method is designed to enhance the accuracy and efficiency of wind-speed time-series decomposition and to effectively smooth photovoltaic power fluctuations.This study innovatively improves the traditional variational mode decomposition(VMD)algorithm,and significantly improves the accuracy and adaptive ability of signal decomposition by IDBO selfoptimization of key parameters K and a.On this basis,Fourier transform technology is used to define the boundary point between high frequency and low frequency signals,and a targeted energy distribution strategy is proposed:high frequency fluctuations are allocated to supercapacitors to quickly respond to transient power fluctuations;Lowfrequency components are distributed to lead-carbon batteries,optimizing long-term energy storage and scheduling efficiency.This strategy effectively improves the response speed and stability of the energy storage system.The experimental results demonstrate that the IDBO-VMD algorithm markedly outperforms traditional methods in both decomposition accuracy and computational efficiency.Specifically,it effectively reduces the charge–discharge frequency of the battery,prolongs battery life,and optimizes the operating ranges of the state-of-charge(SOC)for both leadcarbon batteries and supercapacitors.In addition,the energy management strategy based on the algorithm not only improves the overall energy utilization efficiency of the system,but also shows excellent performance in the dynamic management and intelligent scheduling of renewable energy generation.

文摘The rapid advancement of wearable electronic devices has paved the way for a more intelligent and interconnected world.However,ensuring the sustainable energy supply for these devices remains a critical challenge,particularly for specialized populations and professionals in demanding environments,where a lack of power can pose life-threatening risks.Herein,we propose a mechanically intelligent biomechanical energy harvesting approach that adapts to complex human motion excitations,thereby improving the energy harvesting performance.Leveraging a mechanical intelligence mechanism,the energy harvester aligns with human physiological habits,selectively activating or deactivating as needed.The system can also adapt to excitations of varying directions,amplitudes,and frequencies.Furthermore,the string tension helps reduce the impact forces on the knee joint during foot strikes.A theoretical model for the biomechanical energy harvesting system is developed to describe its dynamic and electrical characteristics,and a prototype is fabricated and tested under diverse conditions.The experimental results are in good agreement with the simulation trends,validating the effectiveness of the theoretical model.A test subject running at 8 km/h for 90 seconds can successfully power a smartphone for 20 seconds,demonstrating the viability of self-powered applications.This mechanically intelligent biomechanical energy harvesting method holds a promising solution for the sustainable power supply for wearable electronic devices.
文摘We perform the self-consistent calculations on the atomic electron affinity and ionization energy for the first-row atoms by means of our scheme. A striking feature of the present work is the variational method with taking into account effects of the nonspherical distribution of electrons explicitly. Comparing the present results with those of the conventional spherical approximation, the systematical improvement can be found. This means that effects of the nonspherical distribution of electrons may play an essential role on the description of the atomic structures.

文摘To investigate the energy relief effect of real-time drilling in preventing rockburst in high-stress rock,a series of high-stress real-time drilling uniaxial compression tests were conducted on red sandstone specimens using the SG4500 drilling rig.Results showed that the mechanical behavior(i.e.peak strength and rockburst intensity)of the rock was weakened under high-stress real-time drilling and exhibited a downward trend as the drilling diameter increased.The real-time drilling energy dissipation index(ERD)was proposed to characterize the energy relief during high-stress real-time drilling.The ERD exhibited a linear increase with the real-time drilling diameter.Furthermore,the elastic strain energy of post-drilling rock showed a linear relationship with the square of stress across different stress levels,which also applied to the peak elastic strain energy and the square of peak stress.This findingreveals the intrinsic link between the weakening effect of peak elastic strain energy and peak strength due to high-stress real-time drilling,confirmingthe consistency between energy relief and pressure relief effects.By establishing relationships among rockburst proneness,peak elastic strain energy,and peak strength,it was demonstrated that high-stress real-time drilling reduces rockburst proneness through energy dissipation.Specifically,both peak elastic strain energy and rockburst proneness decreased with larger drill bit diameters,consistent with reductions in peak strength,rockburst intensity,and fractal dimensions of high-stress real-time drilled rock.These results validate the energy relief mechanism of real-time drilling in mitigating rockburst risks.

文摘The growing demand for land to accommodate renewable energy infrastructure has intensified competition with biodiversity conservation, agriculture, and ecosystem services. In Portugal, electricity system decarbonisation relies heavily on utility-scale solar energy(USSE) facilities, yet the spatial extent of land transformation associated with photovoltaic development has not been systematically assessed. This study provides an assessment of the land occupancy of USSE facilities and associated land use and land cover(LULC) changes in continental Portugal over the past two decades, as well as their spatial relationship with areas designated for land and nature conservation. A geospatial database of USSE installations(≥1 MW) was developed through the integration of multiple data sources using geographic information systems(GIS). The geometric consistency of spatial features was ensured through harmonisation and validation procedures involving GIS-based corrections supported by Sentinel-2 satellite imagery. Spatial overlay analyses were conducted with multitemporal LULC datasets and with land-use planning constraints, including areas classified for nature conservation, ecological reserves, and agricultural reserves. The results indicate that USSE deployment has been predominantly located in the southern regions of Portugal, although the location of planned projects indicates a northward shift. The implementation of USSE facilities has been mainly associated with LULC changes in forest land, agricultural areas, pastures and shrubland. Spatial overlaps were observed with areas classified within the national ecological and agricultural reserves.These patterns may be indicative of growing land-use conflicts, but the extent to which these developments align with land-use planning objectives and conservation priorities requires further examination.
文摘Residential energy-use behavior and energy-saving awareness play a crucial role in sustainable urban energy planning and building energy efficiency,particularly under the pressures of climate change.However,existing studies often lack comparative analysis of urban-rural differences and tend to focus excessively on behavior patterns while neglecting the dimension of energysaving awareness.With China’s urbanization rate reaching 66.16%,understanding such regional disparities has become increasingly important.To address these research gaps,this study conducts a large-scale survey on space cooling behaviors among residents in Beijing,a representative Chinese megacity.It should be noted that living standards in such megacities are generally higher than the national average,which may shape distinctive energy-use profiles.Analyzing 1573valid samples(1064 urban/442 rural)in 2024,this study employed K-Prototypes and K-Modes clustering to identify typical cooling behavior and energy-saving awareness pattems,followed by Kendall/Chi-square correlation tests and XGBoost importance analysis to determine key influencing factors,with subsequent urban-rural comparative analysis.Results indicate that urban residents are primarily heat-sensitive or heat-tolerant,with a secondary patten of mid-low temperature preference,and generally exhibit long cooling durations;rural behavior is dominated by heat-tolerant type,followed by heat-sensitive,mid-low temperature preference,and never-on types as secondary patterns;both urban and rural areas exhibit energy-savingawareness characterized by low consumption-lowwillingness,though urban areas show marginally higher motivation;energy-saving awareness correlates with cooling behavior in rural areas,but this relationship weakens significantly in urban contexts.
文摘Shared energy storage helps lower user investment costs and enhances energy efficiency,which is considered a pivotal driver in accelerating the green transition of energy sectors.In view of the increasing demand for hydrogen,this paper proposes a bi-level optimization of configurations and scheduling for combined cooling,heating,and power(CCHP)microgrid systems considering shared hybrid electric-hydrogen energy storage service.The upper-level model addresses the capacity allocation problem of energy storage stations,while the lower-level model optimizes the operational strategies for the multi-microgrid system(MMS).To resolve the complexity of the coupled bi-level problem,Karush-Kuhn-Tucker(KKT)conditions and the Big-M method are applied to reformulate it into a solvable mixed-integer linear programming(MILP)model,compatible with CPLEX.The economic viability and rationality of the proposed approach are verified through comparisons of three cases.Numerical results show that the proposed approach reduces user annual costs by 20.15%compared to MMS without additional energy storage equipment and achieves 100%renewable absorption.For operators,it yields 5.71 M CNY annual profit with 3.02-year payback.Compared to MMS with electricity sharing,it further cuts user costs by 3.84%,boosts operator profit by 60.71%,and shortens payback by 15.88%.
