文摘Self-suspended proppants,which enable clear-water fracturing,represent a promising new class of materials for reservoir stimulation.Given the economic limitations associated with their exclusive use,this study investigates proppant transport behavior in hybrid systems combining self-suspended proppants with conventional 40/70 mesh quartz sand at various mixing ratios.A dedicated experimental apparatus was developed to replicate field-relevant complex fracture networks,consisting of a main fracture and two branching fractures with different deflection angles.Using this system,sand bank formation and proppant distribution were examined for both conventional quartz sand fracturing and fracturing augmented with self-suspended proppants.The effects of slurry discharge volume,proppant mixing ratio,sand ratio,and injection location of the self-suspended proppant on transport and placement behavior were systematically analyzed.According to the results,the incorporation of self-suspended proppants markedly enhances the proppant-carrying capacity of the slurry and substantially modifies sand bank morphology.Increasing the discharge volume raises the inlet slope angle and promotes greater proppant penetration into branch fractures.The proportion of self-suspended proppant governs slurry viscoelasticity and,consequently,proppant settling behavior.As the fraction of self-suspended proppant decreases,the equilibrium height of the sand bank increases,while the proppant mass fraction within branch fractures exhibits a non-monotonic response,initially decreasing and then increasing.Variations in sand ratio alter both overall proppant concentration and the self-suspended proppant-to-water ratio,thereby modulating slurry rheology and influencing proppant placement.In addition,changes in injection location affect near-wellbore vortex structures,leading to distinct sand bank morphologies.
文摘Three copper(Ⅱ),nickel and cadmium(Ⅱ)complexes,namely[Cu_(2)(μ-H2dbda)2(phen)2]·2H_(2)O(1),[Ni(μ-H2dbda)(μ-bpb)(H_(2)O)2]n(2),and[Cd(μ-H2dbda)(μ-bpa)]n(3),have been constructed hydrothermally using H4dbda(4,4'-dihydroxy-[1,1'-biphenyl]-3,3'-dicarboxylic acid),phen(1,10-phenanthroline),bpb(1,4-bis(pyrid-4-yl)benzene),bpa(bis(4-pyridyl)amine),and copper,nickel and cadmium chlorides at 160℃.The products were isolated as stable crystalline solids and were characterized by IR spectra,elemental analyses,thermogravimetric analyses,and singlecrystal X-ray diffraction analyses.Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses revealed that three complexes crystallize in the monoclinic P21/n,tetragonal I42d,and orthorhombic P21212 space groups.The complexes exhibit molecular dimers(1)or 2D metal-organic networks(2 and 3).The catalytic performances in the Knoevenagel reaction of these complexes were investigated.Complex 1 exhibits an effective catalytic activity and excellent reusability as a heterogeneous catalyst in the Knoevenagel reaction at room temperature.CCDC:2463800,1;2463801,2;2463802,3.
文摘Six new lanthanide complexes:[Ln(3,4-DEOBA)3(4,4'-DM-2,2'-bipy)]2·2C_(2)H_(5)OH,[Ln=Dy(1),Eu(2),Tb(3),Sm(4),Ho(5),Gd(6);3,4-DEOBA-=3,4-diethoxybenzoate,4,4'-DM-2,2'-bipy=4,4'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine]were successfully synthesized by the volatilization of the solution at room temperature.The crystal structures of six complexes were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction technology.The results showed that the complexes all have a binuclear structure,and the structures contain free ethanol molecules.Moreover,the coordination number of the central metal of each structural unit is eight.Adjacent structural units interact with each other through hydrogen bonds and further expand to form 1D chain-like and 2D planar structures.After conducting a systematic study on the luminescence properties of complexes 1-4,their emission and excitation spectra were obtained.Experimental results indicated that the fluorescence lifetimes of complexes 2 and 3 were 0.807 and 0.845 ms,respectively.The emission spectral data of complexes 1-4 were imported into the CIE chromaticity coordinate system,and their corre sponding luminescent regions cover the yellow light,red light,green light,and orange-red light bands,respectively.Within the temperature range of 299.15-1300 K,the thermal decomposition processes of the six complexes were comprehensively analyzed by using TG-DSC/FTIR/MS technology.The hypothesis of the gradual loss of ligand groups during the decomposition process was verified by detecting the escaped gas,3D infrared spectroscopy,and ion fragment information detected by mass spectrometry.The specific decomposition path is as follows:firstly,free ethanol molecules and neutral ligands are removed,and finally,acidic ligands are released;the final product is the corresponding metal oxide.CCDC:2430420,1;2430422,2;2430419,3;2430424,4;2430421,5;2430423,6.
文摘Three zinc(Ⅱ),nickel(Ⅱ),and cadmium(Ⅱ)complexes,namely[Zn(μ-Htpta)(py)_(2)]n(1),[Ni(H_(2)biim)2(H_(2)O)2][Ni(tpta)(H_(2)biim)2(H_(2)O)]2·3H_(2)O(2),and[Cd_(3)(μ4-tpta)2(μ-dpe)_(3)]_(n)(3),have been constructed hydrothermally at 160℃ using H_(3)tpta([1,1':3',1″-terphenyl]-4,4',5'-tricarboxylic acid),py(pyridine),H_(2)biim(2,2'-biimidazole),dpe(1,2-di(4-pyridyl)ethylene),and zinc,nickel and cadmium chlorides,resulting in the formation of stable crystalline solids which were subsequently analyzed using infrared spectroscopy,element analysis,thermogravimetric analysis,as well as structural analyses conducted via single-crystal X-ray diffraction.The findings from these single-crystal Xray diffraction studies indicate that complexes 1-3 form crystals within the monoclinic system P2_(1)/c space group(1)or triclinic system P1 space group(2 and 3),and possess 1D,0D,and 3D structures,respectively.Complex 1 demonstrated substantial catalytic efficiency and excellent reusability as a heterogeneous catalyst in the reaction of Knoevenagel condensation under ambient temperature conditions.In addition,complex 1 also showcased notable anti-wear performance when used in polyalphaolefin synthetic lubricants.CCDC:2449810,1;2449811,2;2449812,3.
文摘This paper reports the preparation of three di‑iron complexes containing a thiazole moiety.Esterification of complex[Fe_(2)(CO)_(6)(μ‑SCH_(2)CH(CH_(2)OH)S)](1)with 4‑methylthiazole‑5‑carboxylic acid gave the corresponding ester[Fe_(2)(CO)_(6)(μ‑tedt)](2),where tedt=SCH_(2)CH(CH_(2)OOC(5‑C_(3)HNSCH_(3)))S.Further reactions of complex 2 with tri(ptolyl)phosphine(tp)or tris(4‑fluorophenyl)phosphine(fp)gave the phosphine‑substituted derivatives[Fe_(2)(CO)_(5)(tp)(μ‑tedt)](3)and[Fe_(2)(CO)_(5)(fp)(μ‑tedt)](4).The structures of the newly prepared complexes were elucidated by elemental analysis,NMR,IR,and X‑ray photoelectron spectroscopy.Moreover,single‑crystal X‑ray diffraction analysis confirmed their molecular structures,showing that they contain a di‑iron core ligated by a bridged dithiolate bearing a thiazole moiety and terminal carbonyls.The electrochemical and electrocatalytic proton reduction were probed by cyclic voltammetry,revealing that three complexes can catalyze the reduction of protons to H_(2) under the electrochemical conditions.For comparison,complex 4 possessed the best efficiency with a turnover frequency of 23.5 s^(-1)at 10 mmol·L^(-1)HOAc concentration.In addition,the fungicidal activity of these complexes was also investigated in this study.CCDC:2477511,2;2477512,3;2477513,4.

文摘The increase in CO_(2)injectivity and shifting of CO_(2)-absorbing layers in multilayered geological CO_(2)sequestration(GCS)reservoirs in Ordos,China indicate significantpermeability variations in certain layers.To capture these system changes,a numerical model incorporating all 21 aquifers and internal aquitards was developed.The monitored pressure was well matched through multiphase and thermalhydraulic-mechanical(THM)coupling numerical simulations by introducing permeability variations.The results revealed that the permeability in the second layer increased on approximately day 13 due to the abrupt pressure buildup and temperature decrease.Even such a low rate of CO_(2)(2.8 kg/s)injected into the low permeability system initiated some fractures and the permeability in the second layer around the wellbore increased by 722 times.The second critical system change occurred on approximately day 386.As demonstrated in the numerical simulation,the substantial injection of cold CO_(2)induced strong thermal stress,leading to rock contraction and the initiation of several cracks.The permeability of the firstlayer around the wellbore unexpectedly increased by 4 orders of magnitude.Since no additional pressure could drive the CO_(2)into the remaining 17 layers,the total storage capability of the multilayered system was reduced.A whole picture of the system variation is fully presented and the underlying mechanisms are analyzed.It is believed that the phenomenon of thermal-hydraulic fracturing observed in this fieldand the simulation procedures will benefitother fluidinjection and production works in various geotechnical settings.

文摘Fractures are typically characterized by roughness that significantlyaffects the mechanical and hydraulic characteristics of reservoirs.However,hydraulic fracturing mechanisms under the influenceof fracture morphology remain largely unexplored.Leveraging the advantages of the finite-discrete element method(FDEM)for explicitly simulating fracture propagation and the strengths of the unifiedpipe model(UPM)for efficientlymodeling dual-permeability seepage,we propose a new hydromechanical(HM)coupling approach for modeling hydraulic fracturing.Validated against benchmark examples,the proposed FDEM-UPM model is further augmented by incorporating a Fourier-based methodology for reconstructing non-planar fractures,enabling quantitative analysis of hydraulic fracturing behavior within rough discrete fracture networks(DFNs).The FDEM-UPM model demonstrates computational advantages in accurately capturing transient hydraulic seepage phenomena,while the asynchronous time-stepping schemes between hydraulic and mechanical analyses substantially enhanced computational efficiencywithout compromising computational accuracy.Our results show that fracture morphology can affect both macroscopic fracture networks and microscopic interaction types between hydraulic fractures(HFs)and natural fractures(NFs).In an isotropic stress field,the initiation azimuth,propagation direction and microcracking mechanism are significantly influencedby fracture roughness.In an anisotropic stress field,HFs invariably propagate parallel to the direction of the maximum principal stress,reducing the overall complexity of the stimulated fracture networks.Additionally,stress concentration and perturbation attributed to fracture morphology tend to be compromised as the leak-off increases,while the breakdown and propagation pressures remain insensitive to fracture morphology.These findingsprovide new insights into the hydraulic fracturing mechanisms of fractured reservoirs containing complex rough DFNs.

文摘To address the key scientific challenge of monitoring the dynamic fracturing of surrounding rock in deep roadways,this study systematically investigates the quantitative relationship between stress and charge signals during coal mass loading.By integrating innovative analytical approaches,introducing quantitative evaluation indices,and developing a charge–stress inversion model,and incorporating underground monitoring practices,significant progress has been achieved in elucidating the correlation between stress variations and charge signals throughout the entire coal mass fracturing process.First,in the field of stress–charge correlation analysis,empirical mode decomposition(EMD)was combined with wavelet coherence analysis for the first time,enabling the removal of slow-varying stress trends while retaining high-frequency fluctuations.This approach allowed for the quantitative characterization of the evolution of coherence between stress variations and charge fluctuations across multiple time scales.Second,coherence skewness and the proportion of high-coherence intervals were innovatively introduced to examine the influence of time scale selection on correlation results.On this basis,a criterion for determining the near-optimal observation scale of charge signals was proposed,providing a quantitative reference for time scale selection in similar signal analyses.Finally,by correlating charge signals with coal damage factors and stress states,a charge-based damage evolution equation was established to achieve effective stress inversion.Combined with in situ monitoring of stress and charge in roadway surrounding rock,this approach revealed the correlation characteristics of stress and charge intensity responses during the dynamic fracturing process.The results indicate,first,that charge signals are not significantly correlated with the absolute stress level of coal but are directly associated with stress variations following coal damage and failure,with the amplitude of charge fluctuations increasing alongside stress fluctuations.Second,coherence between stress and charge signals varies markedly across time scales,with excessively small or large scales leading to distortion,and the scale corresponding to the peak proportion of intervals with coherence>0.8 was identified as the near-optimal observation scale.Third,charge signals can effectively characterize coal damage factors,and the established damage evolution equation can effectively invert stress variation trends.Fourth,in underground roadways,zones of dynamic fracturing in surrounding rock are commonly located in areas where stress concentration overlaps with regions of high charge intensity,further confirming the strong consistency between charge and stress variations.These findings improve the theoretical framework of charge signal responses in loaded coal and provide a scientific basis for precise“stress-charge”monitoring of dynamic disasters,offering practical potential for engineering applications.

文摘In the development of coalbed methane(CBM)reservoirs using multistage fractured horizontal wells,there often exist areas that are either repeatedly stimulated or completely unstimulated between fracturing stages,leading to suboptimal reservoir performance.Currently,there is no well-established method for accurately evaluating the effectiveness of such stimulation.This study introduces,for the first time,the concept of the Fracture Network Bridging Coefficient(FNBC)as a novel metric to assess stimulation performance.By quantitatively coupling the proportions of unstimulated and overstimulated volumes,the FNBC effectively characterizes the connectivity and efficiency of the fracture network.A background grid calibration method is developed to quantify the stage-controlled volume,effectively stimulated volume,unstimulated volume,and repeatedly stimulated volume among different stages of horizontal wells.Furthermore,an optimization model is constructed by taking the FNBC as the objective function and the fracturing injection rate and fluid volume as optimization variables.The Simultaneous Perturbation Stochastic Approximation(SPSA)algorithm is employed to iteratively perturb and optimize these variables,progressively improving the FNBC until the optimal displacement rate and fluid volume corresponding to the maximum FNBC are obtained.Field application in a typical CBM multistage fractured horizontal well in China demonstrates that the FNBC increased from 0.358 to 0.539(a 50.6% improvement),with the injection rate rising from 16 m^(3)/min to 24 m^(3)/min and the average fluid volume per stage increasing from 2490 m^(3) to 3192 m^(3),significantly enhancing the stimulation effectiveness.This research provides theoretical support for designing high-efficiency stimulation strategies in unconventional reservoirs under dynamic limits.

文摘While biomaterials are endowed with sophisticated functions by the temporal dynamics and autonomy derived from non-equilibrium assemblies in biological systems,fabricating advanced materials counterparts with these features through kinetic control remains rare.Herein,we report a non-equilibrium hydrogel that exhibits autonomous time-dependent ultrabright fluorescence(quantum yield 0.90),achieved through the kinetically controlled incorporation of thermodynamic equilibrium host-vip complexes into a poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate)(PHEMA)network.Transient complexes are programmed by coupling rapid assembly kinetics with the slow competitive binding of the polymer matrix.This kinetic mismatch converts a thermodynamic equilibrium supramolecular system into a non-equilibrium state,generating temporally dynamic fluorescence that cyclically shifts from yellow to green and self-reverts.The programmed temporal dynamics endow the hydrogel with high potential for information encryption applications.

文摘Cisplatin(CDDP)-based chemotherapy is an effective strategy for the treatment of advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma(NPC).However,serious toxic side effects of CDDP limit patient tolerance and treatment compliance,which urgently needs to be addressed in clinical application.Liposomes have been considered ideal vehicles for reducing CDDP toxicity due to their high biocompatibility,low toxicity and passive targeting ability.Nevertheless,CDDP's poor water/lipid solubility usually results in a low liposome druglipid ratio,limiting tumor delivery ability.Herein,a CDDP-polyphenol complex liposome was designed to increase the drug loading capacity of CDDP to realize the reduction of toxicity and effective antitumor effect simultaneously.The complex was prepared via complexation reaction of different stoichiometric ratios of CDDP and polyphenolic substances(gallic acid,epigallocatechin gallate and tannic acid),followed by encapsulation of complex in liposomes to improve tumor targeting.Notably,the molecular interaction forces between CDDP and polyphenolic substances were intensively investigated through a binding force disruption assay.In vitro studies demonstrated that the optimal formulation of CDDP-epigallocatechin gallate complex liposome(CDDP-EGCG Lips) showed the highest CDDP encapsulation efficiency,favorable stability,pH-sensitive release,enhanced cellular uptake and apoptosis effect.In vivo studies revealed that CDDP-EGCG Lips retarded the elimination of CDDP to prolong their circulation time,inhibited the growth of tumors,and significantly reduced the toxic side effects compared to CDDP monotherapy.This delivery strategy holds great promise for improving the clinical use of platinum-based drugs.

文摘Methane in-situ deflagration fracturing in shale is a revolutionary anhydrous technology.This paper selects shale samples from the Longmaxi Formation in Southern Sichuan to conduct deflagration fracturing tests with pressures ranging from 25 MPa to 91 MPa.Pore structure changes were experimentally measured to explore the modification differences of nanoscale pore characteristics under varying deflagration pressures.The results show that within the deflagration pressure range examined in this study,(1)Deflagration fracturing can alter the pore volume and specific surface area but does not affect the distribution characteristics of the pore size's peak position.The maximum increments of total pore volume occur at a pressure of 45 MPa.(2)When the deflagration pressure is less than 45 MPa,porosity gradually increases with rising deflagration pressure.When it is greater than 45 MPa,the porosity does not change significantly.With increasing deflagration pressure,it gradually increases:from nanopores,such as mesopores and macropores,to large pores and microcracks.(3)At the low deflagration pressure stage,under the influence of high temperature,slippage pores gradually increase,which is conducive to gas desorption and diffusion migration.As pressure increases,the impact of the explosion shock wave gradually increases,the volume of seepage pores increases significantly,and seepage dominates the migration mode.

文摘Ultra-high-strength aluminumalloy profile is an ideal choice for aerospace structuralmaterials due to its excellent specific strength and corrosion resistance.However,issues such as uneven metal flow,stress concentration,and forming defects are prone to occur during their extrusion.This study focuses on an Al-Zn-Mg-Cu ultra-high-strength aluminum alloy profile with a double-U,multi-cavity thin-walled structure.Firstly,hot compression experiments were conducted at temperatures of 350○C,400○C,and 450○C,with strain rates of 0.01 and 1.0 s^(−1),to investigate the plastic deformation behavior of the material.Subsequently,a 3D coupled thermo-mechanical extrusion simulation model was established using Deform-3D to systematically analyze the influence of die structure and process parameters on metal flow velocity,effective stress/strain,and temperature distribution.The simulation revealed significant velocity differences,stress concentration,and uneven temperature distribution.Key parameters,including mesh density,extrusion ratio,die fillet,and bearing length,were optimized through full-factorial experiments.This optimization,combined with a stepped flow-guiding die design,effectively improved the metal flow pattern during extrusion.Trial production based on both the initial and optimized parameters were carried out.A comparative analysis demonstrates that the optimized scheme results in a final profile whose cross-section matches the target design closely,with complete filling of complex features and no obvious forming defects.This research provides a valuable reference for the extrusion process optimization and die design of complex-section profiles made from ultra-high-strength aluminum alloys.

文摘Enhancing the catalytic activity of catalysts is a core objective in their design and synthesis processes,and the accessibility of active sites is one of the crucial factors determining catalyst activity.Polyoxometalate-based metal-organic complexes(POMOCs)with well-defined structures,which combine the advantages of POMs and MOCs,may offer the possibility to construct catalysts with highly accessible active sites.In this study,a series of POMOCs were successfully designed and synthesized using different POM templates,including[CoII1.5(L)1.5(PMo12O40)(H_(2)O)4]·3H_(2)O(Co-PMo12),[CoII1.5(L)1.5(PW12O40)(H_(2)O)4]·3H_(2)O(Co-PW12),[CoII2(L)2-(SiW12O40)(H_(2)O)4]·11H_(2)O(Co-SiW12),and H[CoII2.5(L)3-(P2W18O62)(H_(2)O)8]·10H_(2)O(Co-P2W18),which were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy,powder X-ray diffraction,and single crystal X-ray diffraction.The differences in catalytic activity among the four POMOCs for olefin epoxidation were attributed to the distinct accessibility of Co(II)sites upon thermal activation.Among them,Co-P2W18 achieved a remarkable 99%yield of 1,2-epoxycyclooctane within 3 h at room temperature using O_(2)as the oxidant,owing to its highly accessible unsaturated Co(II)sites.Co-P2W18 exhibits significantly superior catalytic activity for the cyclooctene epoxidation reaction compared to most reported catalysts.Additionally,the reaction mechanism was investigated using density functional theory.

文摘Charge-transfer complexes(CTCs)have emerged as promising n-type organic thermoelectric(TE)materials due to their inherent high electrical conductivity and tunable transport polarities.In this study,we performed a comprehensive first-principles investigation on the TE properties of nine CTCs comprised of 2,7-dialkyl[1]benzothieno[3,2-b][1]benzothiophenes(CnBTBT,n=4,8,12)as donors and fluorinated derivatives of tetracyanoquinodimethane(F_(m)TCNQ,m=0,2,4)as acceptors,aiming to identify high-performance n-type organic TE materials and elucidate the underlying structure-property relationships.Our calculation results,based on the Boltzmann transport equation and deformation potential theory,reveal that the length of the alkyl side chains and the number of fluorine substitutions significantly impact their electronic structures and TE properties.Notably,the CnBTBT-F_(m)TCNQ CTCs with shorter alkyl chains and more fluorine substitution demonstrate superior n-type characteristics,particularly C4BTBT-F4TCNQ,which achieves an excellent power factor of 671µW cm^(-1) K^(-2) at an optimal charge carrier concentration.Our findings not only clarify the critical role of molecular engineering in CTC-based TE materials but also provide valuable guidance for developing high-efficiency organic TE materials with versatile practical applications.

文摘Lignified stone cells are a unique feature of pear fruit,significantly affecting fruit texture.Even though some research efforts have already been made,the stone cell formation mechanism is complex,with many aspects yet to be elucidated.Here,through a genome-wide association analysis of stone cell traits,we identified PbrMADS1,a member of the SEPALLATA3(SEP3)subfamily,as a candidate gene specifically expressed in stone cells during early fruit development.Functional studies confirmed that PbrMADS1 promotes stone cell formation;however,it does not directly activate lignin-related genes.Instead,Pbr MADS1 interacts with PbrMYB169,enhancing PbrMYB169's binding to AC elements and amplifying downstream gene activation.Notably,homologous MADS1 and MYB169 proteins from closely related species such as apple and loquat do not form a similar complex.Sequence analysis revealed that the protein sequence of PbrMADS1 contains methionine(M)at the 63rdamino acid position,while apple and loquat homologs carry threonine(T)at the same site.Substituting M with T(PbrMADS1^(M63T))weakened its interaction with Pbr MYB169 and impaired its function in regulating stone cell formation.This study offers new insights into MADS gene-mediated stone cell formation and highlights functional divergence within the SEP3 subfamily among apple tribe species of the Rosaceae family.
文摘In modern industrial production,foreign object detection in complex environments is crucial to ensure product quality and production safety.Detection systems based on deep-learning image processing algorithms often face challenges with handling high-resolution images and achieving accurate detection against complex backgrounds.To address these issues,this study employs the PatchCore unsupervised anomaly detection algorithm combined with data augmentation techniques to enhance the system’s generalization capability across varying lighting conditions,viewing angles,and object scales.The proposed method is evaluated in a complex industrial detection scenario involving the bogie of an electric multiple unit(EMU).A dataset consisting of complex backgrounds,diverse lighting conditions,and multiple viewing angles is constructed to validate the performance of the detection system in real industrial environments.Experimental results show that the proposed model achieves an average area under the receiver operating characteristic curve(AUROC)of 0.92 and an average F1 score of 0.85.Combined with data augmentation,the proposed model exhibits improvements in AUROC by 0.06 and F1 score by 0.03,demonstrating enhanced accuracy and robustness for foreign object detection in complex industrial settings.In addition,the effects of key factors on detection performance are systematically analyzed,providing practical guidance for parameter selection in real industrial applications.
