Conversely, in the interface between two layers of soil with different properties, pore water flows slowly along the pore channels, demonstrating laminar flow phenomenon. To predict the thermal contact resistance and flow contact resistance at the interface, this paper constructs general imperfect thermal contact model and general imperfect flow contact model, respectively. Utilizing a thermo-hydro- mechanical coupling model, the thermal consolidation behavior of multilayered saturated soil under two-dimensional conditions is investigated. Fourier and Laplace transformations are applied to decouple the governing equations, yielding expressions for the temperature increment, pore water pressure, and displacement in multilayered saturated soil. The inverse Fourier-Laplace transformation is then used to obtain numerical solutions, which are compared with degeneration solutions to validate the computational accuracy. The differences in the thermal consolidation process under various thermal contact and flow contact resistance models are discussed. Furthermore, the impact of parameters such as the thermal resistance coefficient, partition thermal contact coefficient, flow contact resistance coefficient, and partition flow contact coefficient on thermal consolidation are investigated. Results indicate that thermal contact resistance creates a relative thermal gradient at the interface, leading to increased pore water pressure and reduced displacement nearby. In contrast, flow contact resistance generates a relative pore pressure gradient at the interface, resulting in increased displacement within the saturated soil with minimal effect on temperature increment distribution.展开更多

We report a theoretical proposal to separate electronic and phononic contributions to thermal conductance at 2D interfaces with graphene, which is validated by non-equilibrium Green's function calculations and molecular dynamics simulations for graphene–gold contacts. Our results reveal that while metal–graphene interfaces are transparent for both electrons and phonons, non-covalent graphene interfaces block electronic tunneling beyond two layers but not phonon transport. This suggests that the Wiedemann–Franz law can be experimentally tested by measuring transport across interfaces with varying graphene layers.展开更多

文摘Heat transfers at the interface of adjacent saturated soil primarily through the soil particles and the water in the voids.The presence of water induces the contraction of heat flow lines at the interface,leading to the emergence of the thermal contact resistance effect.In this paper,four thermal contact models were developed to predict the thermal contact resistance at the interface of multilayered saturated soils.Based on the theory of thermal-hydro-mechanical coupling,semi-analytical solutions of thermal consolidation subjected to time-dependent heating and loading were obtained by employing Laplace transform and its inverse transformation.Thermal consolidation characteristics of multilayered saturated soils under four different thermal contact models were discussed,and the effects of thermal resistance coefficient,partition thermal contact coefficient,and temperature amplitude on the thermal consolidation process were investigated.The outcomes indicate that the general thermal contact model results in the most pronounced thermal gradient at the interface,which can be degenerated to the other three thermal contact models.The perfect thermal contact model overestimates the deformation of the saturated soil during the thermal consolidation.Moreover,the effect of temperature on consolidation properties decreases gradually with increasing interfacial contact thermal resistance.

文摘Polymer binders possess significant potential in alleviating the volume expansion issues of silicon-based anodes,yet remain challenging due to insufficient interfacial interactions with individual components(Si,C,and Cu)of the anode.Herein,we report the synthesis of a stable three-dimensional network structure of the PAA-PEA(polyacrylic acid-polyether amines)polymer binder through intermolecular physicochemical dual cross-linking.By incorporating polar functional groups,the binder molecules not only form strong C-O-Si,N-Si,O=C-O-C,and O=C-O-Cu covalent bonds but also enhance non-covalent interactions with Si,C,and Cu,thereby improving adhesion between the binder and each interface of the anode.Furthermore,weak hydrogen bonds,acting as"sacrificial bonds",dissipate energy and disperse accumulated stress,improving the material flexibility.Due to the high mechanical stability of the framework,which combines both rigidity and flexibility and the coupling effect at the three interfaces,the movement and separation of electrode components are effectively restrained,significantly enhancing the cycling stability of silicon-graphite anodes.The PAA-PEA 2000 electrode exhibits a capacity retention of 78% after 500 cycles at a current density of 0.2 A g^(-1).This work provides insights into the mechanism of binders and guides the design of polymer binders for high-performance Si-based electrodes.

文摘Currently,carbon materials derived from biomass are widely sought after as electromagnetic absorbing(EMWA)materials owing to the unique structure,as well as the wide range of natural acquisition pathways,economic viability,and simple processing.However,due to the high dielectric properties,mismatched impedance and single attenuation mechanism,they cannot achieve efficient EMWA performance.Herein,the biomass carbon/Co/porous carbon magnetic composites with a layered gradient structure were fabricated by in-situ deposition of ZIF-67 on the lotus leaf base and then pyrolysis at high temperature.By adjusting the pyrolysis temperature,the sample obtained at 650℃ achieved a minimum reflection value(RLmin)of-34.2dB at a matching thickness of 2.6mm,and a maximum effective absorption bandwidth(EAB)of 7.12GHz.The results indicate that this magnetic composite with a multi-sized layered gradient porous structure has a good electron transport network,a large number of heterogeneous interfaces,and dipole polarization centers,which are conducive to multiple reflection and scattering of microwaves,conduction loss,interface loss,magnetic loss,and impedance matching of materials.Therefore,this work provided a reference for optimizing the EMWA performance of carbon materials and designing a layered gradient porous magnetic composite with multi-sized structure.

文摘When the interface of a multilayered saturated soil is rough with noticeable gaps, heat flow lines converge towards the actual contact points, causing thermal flow contraction. Conversely, in the interface between two layers of soil with different properties, pore water flows slowly along the pore channels, demonstrating laminar flow phenomenon. To predict the thermal contact resistance and flow contact resistance at the interface, this paper constructs general imperfect thermal contact model and general imperfect flow contact model, respectively. Utilizing a thermo-hydro- mechanical coupling model, the thermal consolidation behavior of multilayered saturated soil under two-dimensional conditions is investigated. Fourier and Laplace transformations are applied to decouple the governing equations, yielding expressions for the temperature increment, pore water pressure, and displacement in multilayered saturated soil. The inverse Fourier-Laplace transformation is then used to obtain numerical solutions, which are compared with degeneration solutions to validate the computational accuracy. The differences in the thermal consolidation process under various thermal contact and flow contact resistance models are discussed. Furthermore, the impact of parameters such as the thermal resistance coefficient, partition thermal contact coefficient, flow contact resistance coefficient, and partition flow contact coefficient on thermal consolidation are investigated. Results indicate that thermal contact resistance creates a relative thermal gradient at the interface, leading to increased pore water pressure and reduced displacement nearby. In contrast, flow contact resistance generates a relative pore pressure gradient at the interface, resulting in increased displacement within the saturated soil with minimal effect on temperature increment distribution.

文摘Intracortical neural interfaces directly connect brain neurons with external devices to achieve high temporal resolution and spatially precise sampling of neural activity.When applied to freely moving animals,this technology provides in-depth insight into the underlying neural mechanisms for their movement and cognition in real-world scenarios.However,the application of implanted devices in freely moving animals is limited by restrictions on their behavioral freedom and physiologic impact.In this paper,four technological directions for ideal implantable neural interface devices are analyzed:higher spatial density,improved biocompatibility,enhanced multimodal detection of electrical/neurotransmitter signals,and more effective neural modulation.Finally,we discuss how these technological developments have been applied to freely moving animals to provide better insight into neuroscience and clinical medicine.
文摘Electrochemical nitrate(NO_(3)^(-))reduction offers a promising route for ammonia(NH_(3))synthesis from industrial wastewater using renewable energy.However,achieving selective and active NO_(3)^(-)to NH_(3)conversion at low potentials remains challenging due to complex multi-electron transfer processes and competing reactions.Herein,we tackle this challenge by developing a cascade catalysis approach using synergistic active sites at Cu-Fe_(2)O_(3)interfaces,significantly reducing the NO_(3)^(-)to NH_(3)at a low onset potential to about+0.4 V_(RHE).Specifically,Cu optimizes^(*)NO_(3)adsorption,facilitating NO_(3)^(-)to nitrite(NO_(2)-)conversion,while adjacent Fe species in Fe_(2)O_(3)promote the subsequent NO_(2)-reduction to NH_(3)with favorable^(*)NO_(2)adsorption.Electrochemical operating experiments,in situ Raman spectroscopy,and in situ infrared spectroscopy consolidate this improved onset potential and reduction kinetics via cascade catalysis.An NH_(3)partial current density of~423 mA cm^(-2)and an NH_(3)Faradaic efficiency(FENH_(3))of 99.4%were achieved at-0.6 V_(RHE),with a maximum NH_(3)production rate of 2.71 mmol h^(-1)cm^(-2)at-0.8 V_(RHE).Remarkably,the half-cell energy efficiency exceeded 35%at-0.27 V_(RHE)(80%iR corrected),maintaining an FENH_(3)above 90%across a wide range of NO_(3)^(-)concentrations(0.05^(-1)mol L^(-1)).Using 15N isotopic tracing,we confirmed NO_(3)^(-)as the sole nitrogen source and attained a 98%NO_(3)^(-)removal efficiency.The catalyst exhibit stability over 106-h of continuous operation without noticeable degradation.This work highlights distinctive active sites in Cu-Fe_(2)O_(3)for promoting the cascade NO_(3)^(-)to NO_(2)^(-)and NO_(2)^(-)to NH_(3)electrolysis at industrial relevant current densities.

文摘Electron transfer processes at polymer electrolyte/electrode interfaces play a central role in modern electrochemical devices of energy conversion,however,current understanding of electron transfers through electrochemical interfaces was established exclusively based on the studies of liquid/solid electrochemical interfaces.Thus,similarities and differences of liquid and polymer electrolyte/electrode interfaces need to be mapped out to guide the design of device level electrochemical interfaces.In this work,we employ the sulfonate adsorption/desorption as a probe reaction to understand the electron-transfer steps in polymer and liquid electrolytes.Through cyclic voltametric investigations on the well-define single-crystal Pd_(ML)Pt(111)electrode,we demonstrate that the oxidative adsorption and reductive desorption of sulfonates at the polymer electrolyte/electrode interface are chemically distinct from those in liquid electrolytes,with the former occurring mostly via the proton-coupled pathway while the latter proceeding mainly through the solvation-mediated pathway.Importantly,the sulfonate adsorption/desorption behaviors of alkylsulfonates become increasingly similar to those in Nafion with longer alkyl chains,suggesting that the interfacial hydrophobicity and solvation environment conferred by the perfluorinated polymer play a decisive role in the electron-transfer mechanism.Results reported in this study highlight the mechanistic distinctions between electron-transfer processes at electrochemical interfaces involving polymer and liquid electrolytes,and provide a framework for understanding electron-transfer processes at polymer electrolyte/electrode interfaces.

文摘Fully implanted brain-computer interfaces(BCIs)are preferred as they eliminate signal degradation caused by interference and absorption in external tissues,a common issue in non-fully implanted systems.To optimize the design of electroencephalography electrodes in fully implanted BCI systems,this study investigates the penetration and absorption characteristics of microwave signals in human brain tissue at different frequencies.Electromagnetic simulations are used to analyze the power density distribution and specific absorption rate(SAR)of signals at various frequen-cies.The results indicate that lower-frequency signals offer advantages in terms of power density and attenuation coeffi-cients.However,SAR-normalized analysis,which considers both power density and electromagnetic radiation hazards,shows that higher-frequency signals perform better at superficial to intermediate depths.Specifically,at a depth of 2 mm beneath the cortex,the power density of a 6.5 GHz signal is 247.83%higher than that of a 0.4 GHz signal.At a depth of 5 mm,the power density of a 3.5 GHz signal exceeds that of a 0.4 GHz signal by 224.16%.The findings suggest that 6.5 GHz is optimal for electrodes at a depth of 2 mm,3.5 GHz for 5 mm,2.45 GHz for depths of 15-20 mm,and 1.8 GHz for 25 mm.

文摘This study investigates the shear mechanical responses and debonding failure mechanisms of anchoring systems comprising three anisotropic media and two anisotropic interfaces under controlled boundary conditions of constant normal load(F_(s)),constant normal stiffness(K),and shear rate(v).A systematic analysis of shear mechanical properties,the evolution of maximum principal strain field,and damage characteristics along shear failure surface is presented.Results from direct shear tests demonstrate that initial shear slip diminishes with increasing F_(s)and K,attributed to the normal constraint strengthening effect,while an increase in v enhances initial shear slip due to attenuated deformation coordination and stress transfer.As F_(s)increases from 7.5 to 120 kN,K from 0 to 12 MPa/mm,and v from 0.1 to 2 mm/min,the peak shear load increases by 210.32%and 80.16%with rising F_(s)and K,respectively,while decreases by 38.57%with increasing v.Correspondingly,the shear modulus exhibits,respectively,a 135.29%and 177.06%increase with rising F_(s)and K,and a 37.03%decrease with larger v.Initial shear dilation is identified as marking the formation of shear failure surface along anisotropic interfaces,resulting from the combined shear actions at the resin bolt interface,where resin undergoes shear by bolt surface protrusions,and the resin-rock interface,where mutual shear occurs between resin and rock.With increasing F_(s)and K and decreasing v,the location of the shear failure surface shifts from the resin-rock interface to the resin-bolt interface,accompanied by a transition in failure mode from tensile rupture of resin to shear off at the resin surface.

文摘The Rock-soil interface is a common geological interface.Due to mechanical differences between soil and rock,the stress waves generated by underground blasting undergo intense polarization when crossing the rock-soil interface,making propagation laws difficult to predict.Currently,the characteristics of the impact of the rock-soil interface on blasting stress waves remain unclear.Therefore,the vibration field caused by cylindrical charge blasting in elastic rock and partial-saturation poro-viscoelastic soil was solved.A forward algorithm for the underground blasting vibration field in rock-soil sites was proposed,considering medium damping and geometric diffusion effects of stress waves.Further investigation into the influence of rock and soil parameters and blasting source parameters revealed the following conclusions:stress waves in soil exhibit dispersion,causing peak particle velocity(PPV)to display a discrete distribution.Soil parameters affect PPV attenuation only within the soil,while blasting source parameters affect PPV attenuation throughout the entire site.Multi-wave coupling effects induced by the rocksoil interface result in zones of enhanced and attenuated PPV within the site.The size of the enhancement zone is inversely correlated with the distance from the blasting source and positively correlated with the blasting source attenuation rate and burial depth,providing guidance for selecting explosives and blasting positions.Additionally,PPV attenuation rate increases with distance from the rock-soil interface,but an amplification effect occurs near the interface,most noticeable at 0.1 m.Thus,a sufficient safety distance from the rock-soil interface is necessary during underground blasting.

文摘Although the existence of glass–glass interfaces(GGIs)enables improved ductility of metallic nanoglasses(NGs),the excess free volumes at GGIs would cause the NGs to have a much-reduced mechanical strength.Herein,entropy-stabilized GGIs have been in-vestigated in Co–Fe–Ni–Zn–P NGs,which have a large entropy of mixing(1.32R,where R is the gas constant)and could be in a new glass phase,different from that of glassy grain interiors.Through quantitatively determining the activation energy of glass transition sep-arately for the GGIs and glassy grain interiors,the excess free volumes at GGIs are found to be reduced in comparison with those in the glassy grain interiors.The thermodynamically stable GGIs could be associated with increasing entropy of mixing in the GGI regions,which stabilizes the atomic structures of GGIs and enhances the glass forming ability of Co–Fe–Ni–Zn–P NGs.The influences of entropy-stabilized GGIs on the mechanical properties of Co–Fe–Ni–Zn–P NGs are further investigated by nanoindentation and creep tests under tensile deformation,demonstrating that there are notable enhancements in the ductility and mechanical strength for Co–Fe–Ni–Zn–P NGs.This work contributes to an in-depth understanding on the GGI phase in NGs and offers an alternative method for strengthening NGs through GGI engineering.

文摘Electrical and thermal transport at two-dimensional(2D) interfaces is critical for semiconductor technology, yet their interplay remains unclear. We report a theoretical proposal to separate electronic and phononic contributions to thermal conductance at 2D interfaces with graphene, which is validated by non-equilibrium Green's function calculations and molecular dynamics simulations for graphene–gold contacts. Our results reveal that while metal–graphene interfaces are transparent for both electrons and phonons, non-covalent graphene interfaces block electronic tunneling beyond two layers but not phonon transport. This suggests that the Wiedemann–Franz law can be experimentally tested by measuring transport across interfaces with varying graphene layers.

文摘Liquid phosphoric acid(PA),as the proton carrier for high temperature polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells(HT-PEMFCs),presents challenges such as catalyst poisoning,high gas transport resistance and electrolyte loss.These issues significantly impede the performance and durability of HT-PEMFCs,thereby limiting their potential for further application.In this study,poly(2,3,5,6-tetrafluorostylene-4-phosphonic acid)(PWN)with intrinsic proton conduction ability was employed as catalyst layer binder to reveal the impacts of the ionomer's molecular structure on mass transport within the catalyst layer.Our findings demonstrated that increasing the phosphorylation degree of PWN could enhance both pore formation at the catalyst layer and electrode acidophilic capability while improving proton conduction ability and reducing cells'internal resistance.However,adverse effects included increased local oxygen transport resistance and decreased catalyst utilization resulting from electrode acidophilic capability.This research offers valuable insights for the relationships between micro-scale molecule structure,mesoscale electrode architecture,and membrane electrode assembly design in HT-PEMFCs.
