lightweight broad...[Background and purposes]In recent years,there has been growing attention in academia and industry on the development of high-performance electromagnetic wave(EMW)absorbing materials.However,creating lightweight broadband absorbers remains a challenge in terms of practical applications.EMW absorbing materials primarily rely on the magnetic loss of magnetic materials and/or the dielectric loss of dielectric materials to convert EMW energy into thermal energy for dissipation.Among various magnetic materials,Fe_(3)O_(4) plays an irreplaceable role in EMW absorption due to its high saturation magnetization,low cost and compatible dielectric loss in the gigahertz frequency range.Nevertheless,the high density,large matching thickness and narrow absorption bandwidth of Fe_(3)O_(4) pose significant challenges for practical applications.In contrast,one-dimensional(1D)structures not only retain the characteristic properties of lightweight,chemical stability and high dielectric loss,but also exhibit anisotropic structures and large aspect ratios.Additionally,researchers have found that the minimum reflection loss(RL)of hollow carbon materials with mesopores is nearly four times that of non-porous hollow carbon materials and nine times that of dense carbon materials.According to Maxwell's EMW theory,composites consisting of Fe_(3)O_(4) and one-dimensional(1D)mesoporous carbon materials can leverage their respective advantages by optimizing the composition and structure of the composites to balance u,and Er,thereby enhancing EMW absorption performance.Additionally,numerous studies have demonstrated that composites composed of multi-component heterostructures significantly enhance the EAB.This enhancement is primarily ascribed to the numerous interface polarization losses generated by the additional heterostructure interfaces,which also improve the overall impedance matching of the composites.In this study,we leverage the advantages of magnetic/carbon composites,one-dimensional(1D)mesoporous carbon and multi-component heterostructures to prepare a composite of 1D mesoporous carbon-coated manganese oxide(Mn_(3)O_(4) and MnO,denoted as Mn_(x)O_(y))embedded with Fe_(3)0_(4) nanoparticles(Mn_(x)O_(y)/C@Fe_(3)O_(4)).This composite was synthesized and its formation mechanism and microstructure were analyzed in detail.At the same time,the influence of this Mn_(x)O_(y)/C@Fe_(3)O_(4) structure on EMW properties and absorbing performance was further discussed.[Methods]Firstly,MnO_(2) nanowires were synthesized by using a simple hydrothermal method.Then,the MnO_(2) nanowires served as templates for the synthesis of MnO_(2)/PDA@Fe^(3+)composites through the in-situ polymerization of dopamine and Fe^(3+)adsorption.Finally,1D mesoporous carbon-coated manganese oxide composite embedded with Fe_(3)O_(4) nanoparticles(Mn_(x)O_(y)/C@Fe_(3)O_(4))composites were obtained after heat treatment at 550℃ in N_(2).The crystal structure of the samples was analyzed using X-ray diffractometer with Cu Ka irradiation.Scanning electron microscopy(SEM)and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy(TEM)were used to observe microstructure and morphology of the samples.Nitrogen sorption measurements were obtained at 77 K on a Quantachrome surface area and pore size analyzer to measure the specific surface area and pore size distribution.XPS analysis was performed on X-ray photoelectron spectrometer with monochromatic Al Ka radiation.Magnetization curves of the samples were recorded with a Quantum Design physical property measurement system(PPMS-9)at room temperature.The electromagnetic parameters of the Mn_(x)O_(y)/C@Fe_(3)O_(4) composites were measured using an Agilent N5230C network analyzer in the frequency range of 2-18 GHz.For electromagentic testing,the Mn,Oy/C@Fe34 composites and paraffin wax were mixed at 50°C according to the mass ratio of 15 wt.%,20 wt.%and 25 wt.%,and pressed in a special mold to make coaxial rings(inner diameter=3.04 mm,outer diameter-7 mm),which were denoted as S-1,S-2 and S-3,respectively.[Results]SEM images illustrate the preparation process of iD mesoporous carbon-coated manganese oxide embedded with Fe3O4 nanoparticles composites(Mn_(x)O_(y)/C@Fe_(3)O_(4)).Most of the manganese oxide(Mn,Oy)was reduced to granular after heat treatment,while the outer carbon layer remains its 1D morphology and the carbon layer is interspersed with Fe_(3)O_(4) nanoparticles.The diffraction peaks of MnO_(2) nanowires align well with the body-centered tetragonal a-MnO2.For the Mn_(x)O_(y)/C@Fe_(3)O_(4) composites,the signals of α-MnO_(2) disappears,followed by the emergence of Mn_(3)O_(4) and three prominent diffraction peaks for the cubic MnO.In addition,four weak diffraction peaks correspond to the magnetite Fe_(3)O_(4),consistent with the HRTEM results.The corresponding nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherm and pore size distribution curve are presented to further analyze the mesoporous structure of composite.The surface composition and element valence states of the Mn_(x)O_(y)/C@Fe_(3)O_(4) composite were investigated by using XPS.The polarization relaxation processes were analyzed according to the Debye theory which describes the relationship between e'and e".Besides the polarization loss,the contribution of the conduction loss plays an important role for the overall dielectric loss.The magnetization curve of Mn_(x)O_(y)/C@Fe_(3)O_(4) exhibits typical ferromagnetic behavior.The permittivity parameter(Co),defined as Co=u"(u)^(-2)f^(-1) determine the contribution of eddy current effect to magnetic loss.The tand values are all larger than those of tand,for the three samples,indicating that the loss capacity of Mn_(x)O_(y)/C@Fe_(3)O_(4) composites is mainly derived from the dielectric loss.Although tand,is smaller,it plays an important role in improving the impedance matching of Mn_(x)O_(y)/C@Fe_(3)O_(4) composites.When the filler loading is 15 wt.%,the RL of sample S-1 is about-10.0 dB at the thickness of 1.5 mm with narrow EAB.As the filler loading increased to 20 wt.%,the RL of sample S-2 reached-62.0 dB at a thickness of 2.2 mm and the EAB was 6.4 GHz at a small thickness of 1.7 mm.When the filler loading is further increased to 25 wt.%,the microwave absorption performance of sample S3 decreased significantly with a little region of RL<-10.0 dB at the thickness of 5.0 mm.The values of[Zin/Zol of the three samples at thicknesses of 1.5-5.0 mm were calculated.Due to good impedance matching of S-2,the incident EMW can enter the material and then can be dissipated through dipole polarization loss,interface polarization loss,conduction loss,eddy current loss and natural ferromagnetic resonance loss.[Conclusions]1D Mn_(x)O_(y)/C@Fe_(3)O_(4) was synthesized via a process involving the coating of polydopamine,adsorption of Fe(ll)salts and heat treatment,using MnO_(2) nanowires as templates.The multi-component heterostructure of the Mn_(x)O_(y)/C@Fe_(3)O_(4) composite(Mn_(3)O_(4),MnO,Fe_(3)O_(4),and C)enhances the interfacial interactions between the different phases,providing increased interface polarization loss under the action of an alternating electromagnetic field.The numerous defects and terminal groups in the mesoporous carbon provide abundant dipole polarization centers.Additionally,the presence of mesopores reduces the weight of the material while increasing the multiple scattering losses of the electromagnetic waves within the material.The ID carbon structure in the matrix forms a conductive network between adjacent fibers,facilitating electron migration and transition,thereby enhancing conductive loss.The incorporation of magnetic Fe_(3)O_(4) nanoparticles introduces eddy current loss and natural ferromagnetic resonance loss,thus increasing magnetic loss.Moreover,the synergistic effect between dielectric and magnetic losses improves the impedance matching of the material,leading to excellent EMW absorption performance.展开更多

文摘As the penetration rate of distributed energy increases,the transient power angle stability problem of the virtual synchronous generator(VSG)has gradually become prominent.In view of the situation that the grid impedance ratio(R/X)is high and affects the transient power angle stability of VSG,this paper proposes a VSG transient power angle stability control strategy based on the combination of frequency difference feedback and virtual impedance.To improve the transient power angle stability of the VSG,a virtual impedance is adopted in the voltage loop to adjust the impedance ratio R/X;and the PI control feedback of the VSG frequency difference is introduced in the reactive powervoltage link of theVSGto enhance the damping effect.Thesecond-orderVSGdynamic nonlinearmodel considering the reactive power-voltage loop is established and the influence of different proportional integral(PI)control parameters on the system balance stability is analyzed.Moreover,the impact of the impedance ratio R/X on the transient power angle stability is presented using the equal area criterion.In the simulations,during the voltage dips with the reduction of R/X from 1.6 to 0.8,Δδ_(1)is reduced from 0.194 rad to 0.072 rad,Δf_(1)is reduced from 0.170 to 0.093 Hz,which shows better transient power angle stability.Simulation results verify that compared with traditional VSG,the proposedmethod can effectively improve the transient power angle stability of the system.

文摘In this study,a phosphate-based conversion coating(PCC)was applied as a precursor before forming silicate-fluoride(SiF)and silicate-phosphate-fluoride(SiPF)based flash-plasma electrolytic oxidation(Flash-PEO)coatings on AZ31B magnesium alloy.The main novelty is the successful incorporation of calcium,zinc,manganese and phosphate species into the Flash-PEO coatings via a precursor layer rather than using the electrolyte.The precursor also led to longer lasting and more intense discharges during the PEO process,resulting in increased pore size.Corrosion studies revealed similar short-term performance for all coatings,with impedance modulus at low frequencies above 10^(7)Ωcm^(2),and slightly better performance for the SiPF-based coating.Nonetheless,the enlarged pores in the PEO coatings functionalized with the PCC precursor compromised the effectiveness of self-healing mechanisms by creating diffusion pathways for corrosive species,leading to earlier failure.These phenomena were effectively monitored by recording the open circuit potential during immersion in 0.5 wt.%NaCl solution.In summary,this study demonstrates that conversion coatings are a viable option for the functionalization of PEO coatings on magnesium alloys,as they allow for the incorporation of cationic and other species.However,it is crucial to maintain a small pore size to facilitate effective blockage through self-healing mechanisms.

文摘Developing sensorless techniques for estimating battery expansion is essential for effective mechanical state monitoring,improving the accuracy of digital twin simulation and abnormality detection.Therefore,this paper presents a data-driven approach to expansion estimation using electromechanical coupled models with machine learning.The proposed method integrates reduced-order impedance models with data-driven mechanical models,coupling the electrochemical and mechanical states through the state of charge(SOC)and mechanical pressure within a state estimation framework.The coupling relationship was established through experimental insights into pressure-related impedance parameters and the nonlinear mechanical behavior with SOC and pressure.The data-driven model was interpreted by introducing a novel swelling coefficient defined by component stiffnesses to capture the nonlinear mechanical behavior across various mechanical constraints.Sensitivity analysis of the impedance model shows that updating model parameters with pressure can reduce the mean absolute error of simulated voltage by 20 mV and SOC estimation error by 2%.The results demonstrate the model's estimation capabilities,achieving a root mean square error of less than 1 kPa when the maximum expansion force is from 30 kPa to 120 kPa,outperforming calibrated stiffness models and other machine learning techniques.The model's robustness and generalizability are further supported by its effective handling of SOC estimation and pressure measurement errors.This work highlights the importance of the proposed framework in enhancing state estimation and fault diagnosis for lithium-ion batteries.

文摘The active sound absorption technique excels in mitigating low-frequency sound waves,yet it falls short when dealing with medium and high-frequency sound waves.To enhance the sound-absorbing effect of medium and high-frequency sound waves,a novel semi-active sound absorption method has been introduced.This method modulates the surface impedance of a loudspeaker positioned behind the sound-absorbing material,thereby altering the sound absorption coefficient.The theoretical sound absorption coefficient is calculated using MATLAB and compared with the experimental one.Results show that the method can effectively modulates the absorption coefficient in response to varying incident sound wave frequencies,ensuring that it remains at its peak value.

文摘Developing effective strategies to regulate graphene’s conduction loss and polarization has become a key to expanding its application in the electromagnetic wave absorption(EMWA)field.Based on the unique energy band structure of graphene,regulating its bandgap and electrical properties by introducing heteroatoms is considered a feasible solution.Herein,metal-nitrogen doping reduced graphene oxide(M–N-RGO)was prepared by embedding a series of single metal atoms M–N_(4) sites(M=Mn,Fe,Co,Ni,Cu,Zn,Nb,Cd,and Sn)in RGO using an N-coordination atom-assisted strategy.These composites had adjustable conductivity and polarization to optimize dielectric loss and impedance matching for efficient EMWA performance.The results showed that the minimum reflection loss(RL_(min))of Fe–N-RGO reaches−74.05 dB(2.0 mm)and the maximum effective absorption bandwidth(EAB_(max))is 7.05 GHz(1.89 mm)even with a low filler loading of only 1 wt%.Combined with X-ray absorption spectra(XAFS),atomic force microscopy,and density functional theory calculation analysis,the Fe–N_(4) can be used as the polarization center to increase dipole polarization,interface polarization and defect-induced polarization due to d-p orbital hybridization and structural distortion.Moreover,electron migration within the Fe further leads to conduction loss,thereby synergistically promoting energy attenuation.This study demonstrates the effectiveness of metal-nitrogen doping in regulating the graphene′s dielectric properties,which provides an important basis for further investigation of the loss mechanism.

文摘All-solid-state lithium batteries(ASSLBs)are strongly considered as the next-generation energy storage devices for their high energy density and intrinsic safety.The solid-solid contact between lithium metal and solid electrolyte plays a vital role in the performance of working ASSLBs,which is challenging to investigate quantitatively by experimental approach.This work proposed a quantitative model based on the finite element method for electrochemical impedance spectroscopy simulation of different solid-solid contact states in ASSLBs.With the assistance of an equivalent circuit model and distribution of relaxation times,it is discovered that as the number of voids and the sharpness of cracks increase,the contact resistance Rcgrows and ultimately dominates the battery impedance.Through accurate fitting,inverse proportional relations between contact resistance Rcand(1-porosity)as well as crack angle was disclosed.This contribution affords a fresh insight into clarifying solid-solid contact states in ASSLBs.

文摘Carbon fibre,steel fibre and graphite were used as conductive fillers to prepare cementitious materials with excellent electrothermal properties.The electrically conductive cementitious materials with different volume dosages were analysed through compressive and flexural strength,electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and temperature rise tests.An equivalent circuit model was established to study the electrically conductive heat generation mechanism in the electrically conductive cementitious composites.The results indicate that the mechanical properties of cementitious composite materials with a ternary conductive phase are better than those of pristine cementitious materials because the fibrous filler improves their mechanical properties.However,the incorporation of graphite in the material reduces its strength.Introducing fibrous and point-like conductive phase materials into the cementitious material enhances the overall conductive pathway and considerably reduces the electrical resistance of the cementitious material,enhancing its conductive properties.The volume ratios of carbon fibre,steel fibre and graphite that achieve an optimal complex doping in the cementitious material were 0.35%,0.6%and 6%,respectively.This was determined using the mutation point of each circuit element parameter as the percolation threshold.In addition,at a certain safety voltage,there is a uniform change between the internal and surface temperatures of the conductive cementitious material,and the heating effect in this materialis is considerably better than that in the pristine cementitious material.

文摘As a novel 2D material,Ti_(3)C_(2)T_(x)-MXene has become a major area of interest in the field of microwave absorption(MA).However,the MA effect of common Ti_(3)C_(2)T_(x)-MXene is not prominent and often requires complex processes or combinations of other ma-terials to achieve enhanced performance.In this context,a kind of gradient woodpile structure using common Ti_(3)C_(2)T_(x)-MXene as MA ma-terial was designed and manufactured through direct ink writing(DIW)3D printing.The minimum reflection loss(RL_(min))of the Ti_(3)C_(2)T_(x)-MXene-based gradient woodpile structures with a thickness of less than 3 mm can reach-70 dB,showing considerable improve-ment compared with that of a completely filled structure.In addition,the effective absorption bandwidth(EAB)reaches 7.73 GHz.This study demonstrates that a Ti_(3)C_(2)T_(x)-MXene material with excellent MA performance and tunable frequency band can be successfully fab-ricated with a macroscopic structural design and through DIW 3D printing without complex material hybridization and modification,of-fering broad application prospects by reducing electromagnetic wave radiation and interference.

文摘[Background and purposes]In recent years,there has been growing attention in academia and industry on the development of high-performance electromagnetic wave(EMW)absorbing materials.However,creating lightweight broadband absorbers remains a challenge in terms of practical applications.EMW absorbing materials primarily rely on the magnetic loss of magnetic materials and/or the dielectric loss of dielectric materials to convert EMW energy into thermal energy for dissipation.Among various magnetic materials,Fe_(3)O_(4) plays an irreplaceable role in EMW absorption due to its high saturation magnetization,low cost and compatible dielectric loss in the gigahertz frequency range.Nevertheless,the high density,large matching thickness and narrow absorption bandwidth of Fe_(3)O_(4) pose significant challenges for practical applications.In contrast,one-dimensional(1D)structures not only retain the characteristic properties of lightweight,chemical stability and high dielectric loss,but also exhibit anisotropic structures and large aspect ratios.Additionally,researchers have found that the minimum reflection loss(RL)of hollow carbon materials with mesopores is nearly four times that of non-porous hollow carbon materials and nine times that of dense carbon materials.According to Maxwell's EMW theory,composites consisting of Fe_(3)O_(4) and one-dimensional(1D)mesoporous carbon materials can leverage their respective advantages by optimizing the composition and structure of the composites to balance u,and Er,thereby enhancing EMW absorption performance.Additionally,numerous studies have demonstrated that composites composed of multi-component heterostructures significantly enhance the EAB.This enhancement is primarily ascribed to the numerous interface polarization losses generated by the additional heterostructure interfaces,which also improve the overall impedance matching of the composites.In this study,we leverage the advantages of magnetic/carbon composites,one-dimensional(1D)mesoporous carbon and multi-component heterostructures to prepare a composite of 1D mesoporous carbon-coated manganese oxide(Mn_(3)O_(4) and MnO,denoted as Mn_(x)O_(y))embedded with Fe_(3)0_(4) nanoparticles(Mn_(x)O_(y)/C@Fe_(3)O_(4)).This composite was synthesized and its formation mechanism and microstructure were analyzed in detail.At the same time,the influence of this Mn_(x)O_(y)/C@Fe_(3)O_(4) structure on EMW properties and absorbing performance was further discussed.[Methods]Firstly,MnO_(2) nanowires were synthesized by using a simple hydrothermal method.Then,the MnO_(2) nanowires served as templates for the synthesis of MnO_(2)/PDA@Fe^(3+)composites through the in-situ polymerization of dopamine and Fe^(3+)adsorption.Finally,1D mesoporous carbon-coated manganese oxide composite embedded with Fe_(3)O_(4) nanoparticles(Mn_(x)O_(y)/C@Fe_(3)O_(4))composites were obtained after heat treatment at 550℃ in N_(2).The crystal structure of the samples was analyzed using X-ray diffractometer with Cu Ka irradiation.Scanning electron microscopy(SEM)and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy(TEM)were used to observe microstructure and morphology of the samples.Nitrogen sorption measurements were obtained at 77 K on a Quantachrome surface area and pore size analyzer to measure the specific surface area and pore size distribution.XPS analysis was performed on X-ray photoelectron spectrometer with monochromatic Al Ka radiation.Magnetization curves of the samples were recorded with a Quantum Design physical property measurement system(PPMS-9)at room temperature.The electromagnetic parameters of the Mn_(x)O_(y)/C@Fe_(3)O_(4) composites were measured using an Agilent N5230C network analyzer in the frequency range of 2-18 GHz.For electromagentic testing,the Mn,Oy/C@Fe34 composites and paraffin wax were mixed at 50°C according to the mass ratio of 15 wt.%,20 wt.%and 25 wt.%,and pressed in a special mold to make coaxial rings(inner diameter=3.04 mm,outer diameter-7 mm),which were denoted as S-1,S-2 and S-3,respectively.[Results]SEM images illustrate the preparation process of iD mesoporous carbon-coated manganese oxide embedded with Fe3O4 nanoparticles composites(Mn_(x)O_(y)/C@Fe_(3)O_(4)).Most of the manganese oxide(Mn,Oy)was reduced to granular after heat treatment,while the outer carbon layer remains its 1D morphology and the carbon layer is interspersed with Fe_(3)O_(4) nanoparticles.The diffraction peaks of MnO_(2) nanowires align well with the body-centered tetragonal a-MnO2.For the Mn_(x)O_(y)/C@Fe_(3)O_(4) composites,the signals of α-MnO_(2) disappears,followed by the emergence of Mn_(3)O_(4) and three prominent diffraction peaks for the cubic MnO.In addition,four weak diffraction peaks correspond to the magnetite Fe_(3)O_(4),consistent with the HRTEM results.The corresponding nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherm and pore size distribution curve are presented to further analyze the mesoporous structure of composite.The surface composition and element valence states of the Mn_(x)O_(y)/C@Fe_(3)O_(4) composite were investigated by using XPS.The polarization relaxation processes were analyzed according to the Debye theory which describes the relationship between e'and e".Besides the polarization loss,the contribution of the conduction loss plays an important role for the overall dielectric loss.The magnetization curve of Mn_(x)O_(y)/C@Fe_(3)O_(4) exhibits typical ferromagnetic behavior.The permittivity parameter(Co),defined as Co=u"(u)^(-2)f^(-1) determine the contribution of eddy current effect to magnetic loss.The tand values are all larger than those of tand,for the three samples,indicating that the loss capacity of Mn_(x)O_(y)/C@Fe_(3)O_(4) composites is mainly derived from the dielectric loss.Although tand,is smaller,it plays an important role in improving the impedance matching of Mn_(x)O_(y)/C@Fe_(3)O_(4) composites.When the filler loading is 15 wt.%,the RL of sample S-1 is about-10.0 dB at the thickness of 1.5 mm with narrow EAB.As the filler loading increased to 20 wt.%,the RL of sample S-2 reached-62.0 dB at a thickness of 2.2 mm and the EAB was 6.4 GHz at a small thickness of 1.7 mm.When the filler loading is further increased to 25 wt.%,the microwave absorption performance of sample S3 decreased significantly with a little region of RL<-10.0 dB at the thickness of 5.0 mm.The values of[Zin/Zol of the three samples at thicknesses of 1.5-5.0 mm were calculated.Due to good impedance matching of S-2,the incident EMW can enter the material and then can be dissipated through dipole polarization loss,interface polarization loss,conduction loss,eddy current loss and natural ferromagnetic resonance loss.[Conclusions]1D Mn_(x)O_(y)/C@Fe_(3)O_(4) was synthesized via a process involving the coating of polydopamine,adsorption of Fe(ll)salts and heat treatment,using MnO_(2) nanowires as templates.The multi-component heterostructure of the Mn_(x)O_(y)/C@Fe_(3)O_(4) composite(Mn_(3)O_(4),MnO,Fe_(3)O_(4),and C)enhances the interfacial interactions between the different phases,providing increased interface polarization loss under the action of an alternating electromagnetic field.The numerous defects and terminal groups in the mesoporous carbon provide abundant dipole polarization centers.Additionally,the presence of mesopores reduces the weight of the material while increasing the multiple scattering losses of the electromagnetic waves within the material.The ID carbon structure in the matrix forms a conductive network between adjacent fibers,facilitating electron migration and transition,thereby enhancing conductive loss.The incorporation of magnetic Fe_(3)O_(4) nanoparticles introduces eddy current loss and natural ferromagnetic resonance loss,thus increasing magnetic loss.Moreover,the synergistic effect between dielectric and magnetic losses improves the impedance matching of the material,leading to excellent EMW absorption performance.

文摘In this paper,a linear optimization method(LOM)for the design of terahertz circuits is presented,aimed at enhancing the simulation efficacy and reducing the time of the circuit design workflow.This method enables the rapid determination of optimal embedding impedance for diodes across a specific bandwidth to achieve maximum efficiency through harmonic balance simulations.By optimizing the linear matching circuit with the optimal embedding impedance,the method effectively segregates the simulation of the linear segments from the nonlinear segments in the frequency multiplier circuit,substantially improving the speed of simulations.The design of on-chip linear matching circuits adopts a modular circuit design strategy,incorporating fixed load resistors to simplify the matching challenge.Utilizing this approach,a 340 GHz frequency doubler was developed and measured.The results demonstrate that,across a bandwidth of 330 GHz to 342 GHz,the efficiency of the doubler remains above 10%,with an input power ranging from 98 mW to 141mW and an output power exceeding 13 mW.Notably,at an input power of 141 mW,a peak output power of 21.8 mW was achieved at 334 GHz,corresponding to an efficiency of 15.8%.

文摘Although previous studies have demonstrated that transcranial focused ultrasound stimulation protects the ischemic brain,clear criteria for the stimulation time window and intensity are lacking.Electrical impedance tomography enables real-time monitoring of changes in cerebral blood perfusion within the ischemic brain,but investigating the feasibility of using this method to assess post-stroke rehabilitation in vivo remains critical.In this study,ischemic stroke was induced in rats through middle cerebral artery occlusion surgery.Transcranial focused ultrasound stimulation was used to treat the rat model of ischemia,and electrical impedance tomography was used to measure impedance during both the acute stage of ischemia and the rehabilitation stage following the stimulation.Electrical impedance tomography results indicated that cerebral impedance increased after the onset of ischemia and decreased following transcranial focused ultrasound stimulation.Furthermore,the stimulation promoted motor function recovery,reduced cerebral infarction volume in the rat model of ischemic stroke,and induced the expression of brain-derived neurotrophic factor in the ischemic brain.Our results also revealed a significant correlation between the impedance of the ischemic brain post-intervention and improvements in behavioral scores and infarct volume.This study shows that daily administration of transcranial focused ultrasound stimulation for 20 minutes to the ischemic hemisphere 24 hours after cerebral ischemia enhanced motor recovery in a rat model of ischemia.Additionally,our findings indicate that electrical impedance tomography can serve as a valuable tool for quantitatively evaluating rehabilitation after ischemic stroke in vivo.These findings suggest the feasibility of using impedance data collected via electrical impedance tomography to clinically assess the effects of rehabilitatory interventions for patients with ischemic stroke.

文摘To address the issues of low strength,poor economic efficiency,and high carbon emissions associated with traditional sludge solidifiers,this study employs coal gangue(CG),a byproduct of coal production,and granulated blast furnace slag(GBFS)to prepare geopolymer cementitious materials for sludge solidification.The effects of the solidifier mix ratio,coal gangue calcination temperature,and alkali activator modulus on the unconfined compressive strength of the stabilized soil after 7 and 28 days of curing were investigated.Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS)and scanning electron microscopy(SEM)tests were conducted on the stabilized soil to explore the relationship between strength,electrochemical parameters,and microstructure.The results indicate that when the ratio of coal gangue to slag is 2.5:7.5,the calcination temperature of coal gangue is 750℃,and the modulus of water glass is 1.1;meanwhile,the stabilized soil exhibits high strength.The electrochemical parameters were used to qualitatively characterize the ionic concentration in the pore solution as the degree of soil adhesion and the hydration level during the solidification process.Stabilized soil with higher hydration and strength exhibited a distinct capacitive arc,with deeper hydration resulting in a rightward shift of the curve's intercept on the horizontal axis.This study demonstrates the applicability of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy in evaluating the solidification effectiveness of alkali-activated calcined coal gangue-blast furnace slag sludge.
