文摘An abrasive water jet(AWJ)is commonly used to develop deep geothermal resources,such as drilling in hot dry rock(HDR).The influence of rock mineral properties,such as mineral types,mineral contents,and grain size,on the formation of perforation by AWJ is unclear yet.In this study,we investigate AWJ impacts on three types of granite samples with different mineral fractions using a polarizing microscope and scanning electron microscope(SEM).The results show that when the grain size is doubled,the perforation depth increases by 16.22%under the same type of structure and properties.In general,fractures are more likely to be created at the position of rough surfaces caused by abrasive impact,and the form of fractures is determined by the mineral type.In addition,microstructure analysis shows that transgranular fractures typically pass through large feldspar particles and quartz removal occurs along mineral boundaries.The longitudinal extension of perforation depends mainly on the strong kinetic energy of the jet,while the lateral extension is controlled by the backflow.The results contribute to a better understanding of the process involved in the breaking of hard rock by abrasive jets during deep geothermal drilling.

文摘Although solar steam generation strategy is efficient in desalinating seawater,it is still challenging to achieve continuous solar-thermal desalination of seawater and catalytic degradation of organic pollutants.Herein,dynamic regulations of hydrogen bonding networks and solvation structures are realized by designing an asymmetric bilayer membrane consisting of a bacterial cellulose/carbon nanotube/Co_(2)(OH)_(2)CO_(3)nanorod top layer and a bacterial cellulose/Co_(2)(OH)_(2)CO_(3)nanorod(BCH)bottom layer.Crucially,the hydrogen bonding networks inside the membrane can be tuned by the rich surface–OH groups of the bacterial cellulose and Co_(2)(OH)_(2)CO_(3)as well as the ions and radicals in situ generated during the catalysis process.Moreover,both SO_(4)^(2−)and HSO_(5)−can regulate the solvation structure of Na^(+)and be adsorbed more preferentially on the evaporation surface than Cl^(−),thus hindering the de-solvation of the solvated Na^(+)and subsequent nucleation/growth of NaCl.Furthermore,the heat generated by the solar-thermal energy conversion can accelerate the reaction kinetics and enhance the catalytic degradation efficiency.This work provides a flow-bed water purification system with an asymmetric solar-thermal and catalytic membrane for synergistic solar thermal desalination of seawater/brine and catalytic degradation of organic pollutants.

文摘BACKGROUND The classification of uterine sarcomas is based on distinctive morphological and immunophenotypic characteristics,increasingly supported by molecular genetic diagnostics.Data on neurotrophic tyrosine receptor kinase(NTRK)gene fusionpositive uterine sarcoma,potentially aggressive and morphologically similar to fibrosarcoma,are limited due to its recent recognition.Pan-TRK immunohistochemistry(IHC)analysis serves as an effective screening tool with high sensitivity and specificity for NTRK-fusion malignancies.CASE SUMMARY We report a case of a malignant mesenchymal tumor originating from the uterine cervix,which was pan-TRK IHC-positive but lacked NTRK gene fusions,accompanied by a brief literature review.A 55-year-old woman presented to the emergency department with abdominal pain and distension,exhibiting significant ascites and multiple solid pelvic masses.Pelvic examination revealed a tumor encompassing the uterine cervix,extending to the vagina and uterine corpus.A punch biopsy of the cervix indicated NTRK sarcoma with positive immunochemical pan-TRK stain.However,subsequent next generation sequencing revealed no NTRK gene fusion,leading to a diagnosis of poorly differentiated,advanced-stage sarcoma.CONCLUSION The clinical significance of NTRK gene fusion lies in potential treatment with TRK inhibitors for positive sarcomas.Identifying such rare tumors is crucial due to the potential applicability of tropomyosin receptor kinase inhibitor treatment.
文摘The immense energy potential of natural water vapor cycles,encompassing evaporation,transport,and adsorption,remains substantially underexploited.Recent progress in nanomaterial science and an improved understanding of water-surface interactions have shown that because of quantum confinement effects and increased surface reactivity,nanoscale materials have exceptional electrical generation abilities through interfacial dynamics with aqueous phases.Hydrovoltaic technology has emerged as a novel energy conversion method that harnesses liquid-solid interfacial phenomena including surface slippage,frictional contact,evaporation dynamics,and moisture concentration gradients to produce electrical outputs.This review summarizes advances in graphene-based carbon materials for hydrovoltaic applications,addressing four critical aspects:(1)fundamental characteristics of graphene-water interfaces,(2)interfacial charge generation mechanisms at liquid-solid boundaries,(3)three principal electricity generation modes(flow-induced,evaporation-driven,and moisture gradient-enabled power generation),and(4)practical implementation scenarios.We also propose ways to improve the energy conversion efficiency and scale-up of the current technology for its use in self-powered systems,flexible energy storage batteries,humidity sensors,and personal thermal management devices.
文摘To investigate the overall performance of reverse energy bypass scramjet,firstly a variable spe⁃cific heat method combined with a chemical balance calculation module for combustion products were used to es⁃tablish a benchmark scramjet performance evaluation model.Based on the test data of typical flying point of Mach 7 with the altitude of 29 km,the reliability of the model was verified.The deviations of parameters such as the to⁃tal pressure loss of combustor between the model and the test data were analyzed.Furtherly,an analytical method for post-combustion magnetohydrodynamic power generation was established;by embedding the above method into the overall performance evaluation model,performance prediction considering the power generation effect was realized.Finally,based on the above model,variety regulations of the inlet and the outlet parameters of the power generation channel and performance parameters including the engine specific impulse and the unit thrust under different enthalpy extraction ratios and load factors were analyzed.It could be concluded that the model can reliably predict the variations of key parameters.As the value of the load factor increases,the value of the conduc⁃tivity required to reach the specified enthalpy extraction ratio first decreases and then increases,which is approxi⁃mately parabolic.In order to reduce the demand for the gas conductivity for MHD power generation,the load fac⁃tor should be around 0.5.When the load factor is 0.4 and the magnetic induction intensity is 2.5 T,if the enthalpy extraction ratio reaches 0.5%,the engine specific impulse performance reduces about 3.58%.
文摘Ultrafine,highly dispersed Pt clusters were immobilized onto the Co nanoparticle surfaces by one-step pyrolysis of the precursor Pt(Ⅱ)-encapsulating Co-MOF-74.Owing to the small size effects of Pt clusters as well as the strongly enhanced synergistic interactions between Pt and Co atoms,the obtained Pt-on-Co/C400 catalysts exhib-ited excellent catalytic activity toward the hydrolysis of ammonia borane with an extremely high turnover frequency(TOF)value of 3022 min^(-1)at 303 K.Durability test indicated that the obtained Pt-on-Co/C400 catalysts possessed high catalytic stability,and there were no changes in the catalyst structures and catalytic activities after 10 cycles.

文摘The generation of optical vortices from nonlinear photonic crystals(NPCs)with spatially modulated second-order nonlinearity offers a promising approach to extend the working wavelength and topological charge of vortex beams for various applications.In this work,the second harmonic(SH)optical vortex beams generated from nonlinear fork gratings under Gaussian beam illumination are numerically investigated.The far-field intensity and phase distributions,as well as the orbital angular momentum(OAM)spectra of the SH beams,are analyzed for different structural topological charges and diffraction orders.Results reveal that higher-order diffraction and larger structural topological charges lead to angular interference patterns and non-uniform intensity distributions,deviating from the standard vortex profile.To optimize the SH vortex quality,the effects of the fundamental wave beam waist,crystal thickness,and grating duty cycle are explored.It is shown that increasing the beam waist can effectively suppress diffraction order interference and improve the beam’s quality.This study provides theoretical guidance for enhancing the performance of nonlinear optical devices based on NPCs.

文摘Sodium-ion batteries have gradually been commercialized due to their wide range of material sources and low cost.However,there are few studies focusing on the commercial sodium-ion battery safety,especially the relationship between heat and gas generation is unclear.This work conducts the thermal runaway(TR)experiments of commercial 18650 sodium-ion batteries with different states of charge(SOCs)under adiabatic accelerated rate calorimetry and localized overheating.The results show that heat generation values of 50% and 100%SOC batteries during TR are 175.2 and 328.2 J g^(-1),respectively.Whereas,0%SOC batteries do not trigger TR.Moreover,the reaction sources and pathways of gas generation during TR are critically sorted out.Finally,two important conclusions are obtained.(i)During the five stages of TR,the heat generation from the safe venting to the triggering of TR stage is the highest in 50%SOC batteries,accounting for 62.5% of the total heat generation.However,for 100%SOC batteries,the heat generation from triggering TR to maximum temperature stage has the largest proportion during TR,at 57%.The 50%SOC batteries present characteristic of slow heat generation,while the 100%SOC batteries show characteristics of accelerated heat generation.(ii)Based on dimensionless analysis,the heat/gas generation ratios of 50% and 100%SOC batteries are 0.262 and 0.028,respectively.The gas generation behavior occur earlier than heat generation behavior during the whole process of TR of sodium-ion batteries.This study provides a direction for the development of high-safety sodium-ion batteries and thermal runaway suppression technology.

文摘Artificial intelligence(AI)assisted ultrasound report generation represents a technology that leverages artificial intelligence to convert ultrasound imaging analysis results into structured diagnostic reports.By integrating image recognition and natural language generation models,AI systems can automatically detect and analyze lesions or abnormalities in ultrasound images,generating textual descriptions of diagnostic conclusions(e.g.,fatty liver,liver fibrosis,automated BIRADS grading of breast lesions),imaging findings,and clinical recommendations to form comprehensive reports.This technology enhances the efficiency and accuracy of imaging diagnosis,reduces physicians’workloads,ensures report standardization and consistency,and provides robust support for clinical decisionmaking.Current state-of-the-art algorithms for automated ultrasound report generation primarily rely on vision-language models,which harness the generalization capabilities of large language models and large vision models through multimodal(language+vision)feature alignment.However,existing approaches inadequately address challenges such as numerical measurement generation,effective utilization of report templates,incorporation of historical reports,learning text-image correlations,and overfitting under limited data conditions.This paper aims to introduce the current state of research on ultrasound report generation,the existing issues,and to provide some thoughts for future research.
