In...There are some curved interfaces in ocean acoustic waveguides. To compute wave propagation along the range with some marching methods, a flattening of the internal interfaces and a transforming equation are needed. In this paper a local orthogonal coordinate transform and an equation transformation are constructed to flatten interfaces and change the Helmholtz equation as a solvable form. For a waveguide with a flat top, a fiat bottom and n curved interfaces, the coefficients of the transformed Helmholtz equation are given in a closed formulation which can be thought of as an extension of the formal work related to the equation transformation with two curved internal interfaces. In the transformed horizontally stratified waveguide, the one-way reformulation based on the Dirichlet-to-Neumann （DtN） map is then used to reduce the boundary value problem to an initial value problem. Numerical implementation of the resulting operator Riccati equation uses a large range step method to discretize the range variable and a truncated local eigenfunction expansion to approximate the operators. This method is particularly useful for solving long range wave propagation problems in slowly varying waveguides. Furthermore, the method can also be applied to wave propagation problems in acoustic waveguides associated with varied density.展开更多

文摘Optimizing the oxygen reduction reaction(ORR)kinetics requires precise control of intermediate adsorption at active sites,which can be achieved through orbital engineering by regulating the electronic structure.This study addresses the challenge by exploring how modulation of the 3d-orbital electronic structure of FeN_(4) active sites influences ORR electrocatalysis.To realize this,a catalyst composed of Fe_(3)C nanoparticles and FeN_(4) single atoms anchored on carbon black(Fe_(3)C-FeN_(4)/CB)was synthesized via a synergistic strategy of spatial confinement and atmosphere control.This unique heterostructure creates interfaces between Fe_(3)C and FeN_(4) that modulate the electronic configuration of the FeN_(4) center,transforming its geometry from square-planar to quasi-octahedral.Spectroscopic characterizations and theoretical calculations reveal that this orbital modulation results in a downward shift of the Fe dband center,altering the reaction pathway and lowering the energy barrier for ORR.Consequently,the Fe_(3)C-FeN_(4)/CB catalyst exhibits outstanding ORR activity,four-electron selectivity,excellent methanol tolerance,and remarkable electrochemical stability.When applied in a zinc-air battery,it achieves a peak power density of 178.4 mW cm^(-2)and superior cycling stability compared to commercial Pt/C catalysts.This work provides valuable insights into heterointerface-induced orbital modulation as a promising design principle for high-performance ORR electrocatalysts.

文摘There are some curved interfaces in ocean acoustic waveguides. To compute wave propagation along the range with some marching methods, a flattening of the internal interfaces and a transforming equation are needed. In this paper a local orthogonal coordinate transform and an equation transformation are constructed to flatten interfaces and change the Helmholtz equation as a solvable form. For a waveguide with a flat top, a fiat bottom and n curved interfaces, the coefficients of the transformed Helmholtz equation are given in a closed formulation which can be thought of as an extension of the formal work related to the equation transformation with two curved internal interfaces. In the transformed horizontally stratified waveguide, the one-way reformulation based on the Dirichlet-to-Neumann （DtN） map is then used to reduce the boundary value problem to an initial value problem. Numerical implementation of the resulting operator Riccati equation uses a large range step method to discretize the range variable and a truncated local eigenfunction expansion to approximate the operators. This method is particularly useful for solving long range wave propagation problems in slowly varying waveguides. Furthermore, the method can also be applied to wave propagation problems in acoustic waveguides associated with varied density.

文摘An analytical solution of the guided wave propagation in a multilayered twodimensional decagonal quasicrystal plate with imperfect interfaces is derived.According to the elastodynamic equations of quasicrystals(QCs),the wave propagating problem in the plate is converted into a linear control system by employing the state-vector approach,from which the general solutions of the extended displacements and stresses can be obtained,These solutions along the thickness direction are utilized to derive the propagator matrix which connects the physical variables on the lower and upper interfaces of each layer.The special spring model,which describes the discontinuity of the physical quantities across the interface,is introduced into the propagator relationship of the multilayered structure.The total propagator matrix can be used to propagate the solutions in each interface and each layer about the multilayered plate.In addition,the traction-free boundary condition on the top and bottom surfaces of the laminate is considered to obtain the dispersion equation of wave propagation,Finally,typical numerical examples are presented to illustrate the marked influences of stacking sequence and interface coeficients on the dispersion curves and displacement mode shapes of the QC laminates.

文摘Currently,the demand for electromagnetic wave(EMW)absorbing materials with specific functions and capable of withstanding harsh environments is becoming increasingly urgent.Multi-component interface engineering is considered an effective means to achieve high-efficiency EMW absorption.However,interface modulation engineering has not been fully discussed and has great potential in the field of EMW absorption.In this study,multi-component tin compound fiber composites based on carbon fiber(CF)substrate were prepared by electrospinning,hydrothermal synthesis,and high-temperature thermal reduction.By utilizing the different properties of different substances,rich heterogeneous interfaces are constructed.This effectively promotes charge transfer and enhances interfacial polarization and conduction loss.The prepared SnS/SnS_(2)/SnO_(2)/CF composites with abundant heterogeneous interfaces have and exhibit excellent EMW absorption properties at a loading of 50 wt%in epoxy resin.The minimum reflection loss(RL)is−46.74 dB and the maximum effective absorption bandwidth is 5.28 GHz.Moreover,SnS/SnS_(2)/SnO_(2)/CF epoxy composite coatings exhibited long-term corrosion resistance on Q235 steel surfaces.Therefore,this study provides an effective strategy for the design of high-efficiency EMW absorbing materials in complex and harsh environments.

文摘Metal nitrides exhibit excellent properties and application potential as electromagnetic wave(EMW)ab-sorbing materials.Their high conductivity and adjustable dielectric properties allow them to effectively attenuate EMW.However,the current research on the synergistic effect of metal nitrides is scarce and has limited applications in the field of EMW absorption.In this work,Co/Ni metal-nitride fiber composites with multiphase structures were constructed by electrostatic spinning and multiphase composite process.The synergistic loss mechanism of multiphase structure and N atomic modulation is explored by modu-lating the components and microstructure of the materials.By constructing the multiphase composites,the controllable tuning of non-homogeneous interfaces and the enhanced interfacial polarization loss ef-fect were achieved.Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy was used to analyze the charge transfer ca-pability at the interface of multiphase Co/Ni metal nitride fiber composites.Through the controllable reg-ulation of the multiphase structure,the Co/Ni bimetallic nitride fiber composite(Co_(5.47)N/Ni_(4)N/CF)exhib-ited the strongest polarization loss capability,achieving a minimum reflection loss(RL_(min))of−43.82 dB and a maximum effective absorption bandwidth(EAB_(max))of 7.04 GHz.This study provides a valuable reference for multiphase composites in the field of EMW absorption by exploring the polarization loss mechanism of Co/Ni metal nitride multiphase materials.
