文摘The novel core−shell SiC@CoCrFeNiMn high-entropy alloy(HEA)matrix composites(SiC@HEA)were successfully prepared via mechanical ball milling and vacuum hot-pressing sintering(VHPS).After sintering,the microstructure was composed of FCC solid solution,Cr_(23)C_(6) carbide phases,and Mn_(2)SiO_(4) oxy-silicon phase.The relative density,hardness,tensile strength,and elongation of SiC@HEA composites with 1.0 wt.%SiC were 98.5%,HV 358.0,712.3 MPa,and 36.2%,respectively.The core−shell structure had a significant deflecting effect on the cracks.This effect allowed the composites to effectively maintain the excellent plasticity of the matrix.As a result,the core−shell SiC@HEA composites obtained superior strength and plasticity with multiple mechanisms.

文摘Underground gas storage facilities play a crucial strategic role in ensuring the balance of natural gas supply and demand,addressing seasonal fluctuations,and responding to emergencies.The design of the wellbore structure is key to both construction and operation,directly influencing long-term efficiency and economic benefits.However,since gas storage is typically located in complex geological environments,parameters such as formation pressure,porosity,and fracture pressure exhibit significant spatial variation and uncertainty.Traditional design methods based on deterministic geological data struggle to accu rately predict the drilling fluid density window,reducing design precision and reliability.To addre ss this,this paper proposes an optimized design method based on grey geological information and a threeparameter drilling fluid density window.By constructing a model of the three-parameter density window,including upper and lower limits and the centroid,and developing drilling risk evaluation models for overflow,collapse,wellbore loss,and stuck pipe,the method combines procedural approaches with geometric plotting to determine casing levels and depth.Case studies show that this method significantly improves the safety and economy of gas storage wellbore structure design,providing scientific guidance for similar complex gas storage well designs.The drilling risk evaluation model based on three-parameter grey intervals aligns closely with actual risks,validating its reliability and applicability.In practical engineering,a balanced wellbore structure design effectively ensures safety while controlling construction costs.This method offers flexible and reliable references for gas storage well design at different risk levels,holding significant practical value.

文摘Coronaviruses are single-stranded,positive-sense RNA enveloped viruses that have posed a significant threat to human health over the past few decades,particularly severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus(SARS-CoV),Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus(MERS-CoV),and SARS-CoV-2.These viruses have caused widespread infections and fatalities,with profound impacts on global economies,social life,and public health systems.Due to their broad host range in natural settings and the consequent high potential for zoonotic spillover events,a thorough investigation of the common viral mechanisms and the identification of druggable targets for pan-coronavirus antiviral development are of utmost importance.

文摘Durability zonation standard （DZS） is proposed to provide useful parameters for durable concrete structure design. It deals not only with the influence of environment on structures, but also with types, functions and importance of structures based on the theory of life cycle cost（LCC）. First, the basic concept of DZS for concrete structure design is defined. Then the basic principles for DZS are established. The factors for zonation according to natural environmental conditions and structural importance are identified. The usefulness of DZS by citing a real application for concrete highway bridges in Zhejiang Province is demonstrated. Finally, durability regulations are provided accordingly to zonation.
文摘In many practical structures, physical parameters of material and applied loads have random property.To optimize this kind of structures,an optimum mathematical model was built.This model has reliability constraints on dynamic stress and displacement and upper & lower limits of the design variables. The numerical characteristic of dynamic response and sensitivity of dynamic response based on probability of structure were deduced respectively. By equivalent disposing, the reliability constraints were changed into conventional forms. The SUMT method was used in the optimization process.Two examples illustrate the correctness and practicability of the optimum model and solving approach.

Getting design constraints from the upstream design section through product data management(PDM), the system generates the assembly scheme using the case? based method, then assigns the design requirements into each component of the assembly. The detail design for each component can be performed under these design constraints. In order to practise concurrent design, the system sends the final design result to the upstream section and downstream section through PDM to achieve information sharing and integration.
文摘For the aim of finding new available functional materials, a series of nitrogen heteroatom 2 β naphthylbenzoxazole molecules were designed based on the experiment and theoretical studies of 2 β naphthylbenzoxazole molecule. Geometry optimization of the 2 β naphthylbenzoxazole was carried out by using Hyperchem Molecular Mechanics plus MM+. The planar molecular structure was obtained.

Considering other electronic structure information, some favorable designed molecules were identified.

文摘Car body design in view of structural performance and lightweighting is a challenging task due to all the performance targets that must be satisfied such as vehicle safety and ride quality.In this paper,material replacement along with multidisciplinary design optimization strategy is proposed to develop a lightweight car body structure that satisfies the crash and vibration criteria while minimizing weight.Through finite element simulations,full frontal,offset frontal,and side crashes of a full car model are evaluated for peak acceleration,intrusion distance,and the internal energy absorbed by the structural parts.In addition,the first three fundamental natural frequencies are combined with the crash metrics to form the design constraints.The wall thicknesses of twenty-two parts are considered as the design variables.Latin Hypercube Sampling is used to sample the design space,while Radial Basis Function methodology is used to develop surrogate models for the selected crash responses at multiple sites as well as the first three fundamental natural frequencies.A nonlinear surrogate-based optimization problem is formulated for mass minimization under crash and vibration constraints.Using Sequential Quadratic Programming,the design optimization problem is solved with the results verified by finite element simulations.The performance of the optimum design with magnesium parts shows significant weight reduction and better performance compared to the baseline design.
