He...In mass spectrometry, fragments with a mass higher than the original molecular ion provide valuable insights into the molecular structure and can guide the assembly and disassembly processes for chemical synthesis. Here, we report such an example and following up by modifying the solvothermal reaction conditions (temperature and time) it is possible to isolate the high mass species in crystalline form. [Zn_(4)L_(4)Cl_(4)] (Zn_(4)L_(4), L = N-methylbenzimidazole-2-methanolate) has a boat-like Zn_(4)O_(4) core but electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) of the solution of its crystals shows higher mass peaks of Zn_(5)L_(5), Zn_(5)L_(6) and Zn_(6)L_(6) species. Thus, both disassembly and reassembly are highly probable processes. Consequently, [Zn(HL)_(2)Cl_(2)] (Zn1, L = N-methylbenzimidazole-2-methanolate), [Zn_(4)L_(6)Cl_(2)] (Zn_(4)L_(6), L = N-methylbenzimidazole-2-methanolate) and [Zn_(6)L_(6)Cl_(4)(CH_(3)O)_(2)] (Zn_(6)L_(6), L = N-methylbenzimidazole-2-methanolate) were prepared. The results of multistage ESI-MS of their dissolved crystals led to a proposed mechanism of their formation in the gas phase as follows: [Zn_(3)L_(4)] through [ZnL] → [ZnL(HL)] → [Zn(HL)_(2)] → [Zn_(2)L] → [Zn_(2)L_(2)] → [Zn_(2)L_(3)]. The mechanism was derived in conjunction with Gibbs free energies calculated using DFT of the fragments observed in the ESI-MS of Zn_(4)L_(4), Zn_(4)L_(6) and Zn_(6)L_(6). This work reveals the complex of chemical reactions, involving fragmentation and unexpected combination, under mass spectrometry condition which allows one to synthesize the observed transients, leading to mechanism of formation by correlation of solid-state/solution structural information.展开更多

文摘Notable advancements have been made in the additive manufacturing(AM)of aerospace materials,driven by the needs for integrated components with intricate geometries and small-lot production of high-value components.Nickel-based superalloys,pivotal materials for high-temperature bearing components in aeroengines,present significant challenges in the fabrication of complex parts due to their great hardness.Huge attention and rapid progress have been garnered in AM processing of nicklebased superalloys,largely owing to its distinct benefits in the freedom of fabrication and reduced manufacturing lifecycle.Despite extensive research into AM in nickel-based superalloys,the corresponding results and conclusions are scattered attributed to the variety of nickel-based superalloys and complex AM processing parameters.Therefore,there is still a pressing need for a comprehensive and deep understanding of the relationship between the AM processing and microstructures and mechanical performance of nickel-based superalloys.This review introduces the processing characteristics of four primary AM technologies utilized for superalloys and summarizes the microstructures and mechanical properties prior to and post-heat treatments.Additionally,this review presents innovative superalloys specifically accommodated to AM processing and offers insights into the material development and performance improvement,aiming to provide a valuable assessment on AM processing of nickel-based superalloys and an effective guidance for the future research.

文摘Electronic 3D printing possesses a remarkable molding ability and convenience in integrated circuits,flexible wearables,and individual automobile requirements.However,traditional 3D printing technology still struggles to meet the demands of high precision and high efficiency in the process of fabricating a curved surface circuit,particularly achieving precise silver circuit molding on irregular substrates.Here,a high-precision and muti-scaled conformal manufacturing method for silver circuits is presented through the digital light processing(DLP)of ultraviolet-curable silver paste(UV-SP)with adjustable photocuring properties,enabling the successful preparation of micro-scaled conductive structure on the sharply skewed hook face.The minimum modeling depth and width of the cured silver paste can be well controlled to 10 and 88µm,respectively.Compared with traditional printing technology,the printing efficiency of complex patterns has increased by over 70%.The printed silver circuit demonstrates an exceptionally high electrical conductivity,reaching as high as 1.16×10^(7) S/m.Additionally,the UV-SP exhibits significant manufacturing efficiency and superior molding resolution compared to conventional direct ink writing and inkjet printing techniques,thereby contributing to the attainment of high precision and efficiency of conformal and micro-molding manufacturing in sensors,communication antennas,and other electronic devices based on curved substrates.

文摘With growing concerns over environmental issues,ethylene manufacturing is shifting from a sole focus on economic benefits to an additional consideration of environmental impacts.The operation of the thermal cracking furnace in ethylene manufacturing determines not only the profitability of an ethylene plant but also the carbon emissions it releases.While multi-objective optimization of the thermal cracking furnace to balance profit with environmental impact is an effective solution to achieve green ethylene man-ufacturing,it carries a high computational demand due to the complex dynamic processes involved.In this work,artificial intelligence(AI)is applied to develop a novel hybrid model based on physically consistent machine learning(PCML).This hybrid model not only reduces the computational demand but also retains the interpretability and scalability of the model.With this hybrid model,the computational demand of the multi-objective dynamic optimization is reduced to 77 s.The optimization results show that dynamically adjusting the operating variables with coke formation can effectively improve profit and reduce CO_(2)emissions.In addition,the results from this study indicate that sacrificing 28.97%of the annual profit can significantly reduce the annual CO_(2)emissions by 42.89%.The key findings of this study highlight the great potential for green ethylene manufacturing based on AI through modeling and optimization approaches.This study will be important for industrial practitioners and policy-makers.

文摘Under the paradigm of Industry 5.0,intelligent manufacturing transcends mere efficiency enhancement by emphasizing human-machine collaboration,where human expertise plays a central role in assembly processes.Despite advancements in intelligent and digital technologies,assembly process design still heavily relies on manual knowledge reuse,and inefficiencies and inconsistent quality in process documentation are caused.To address the aforementioned issues,this paper proposes a knowledge push method of complex product assembly process design based on distillation model-based dynamically enhanced graph and Bayesian network.First,an initial knowledge graph is constructed using a BERT-BiLSTM-CRF model trained with integrated human expertise and a fine-tuned large language model.Then,a confidence-based dynamic weighted fusion strategy is employed to achieve dynamic incremental construction of the knowledge graph with low resource consumption.Subsequently,a Bayesian network model is constructed based on the relationships between assembly components,assembly features,and operations.Bayesian network reasoning is used to push assembly process knowledge under different design requirements.Finally,the feasibility of the Bayesian network construction method and the effectiveness of Bayesian network reasoning are verified through a specific example,significantly improving the utilization of assembly process knowledge and the efficiency of assembly process design.

文摘In mass spectrometry, fragments with a mass higher than the original molecular ion provide valuable insights into the molecular structure and can guide the assembly and disassembly processes for chemical synthesis. Here, we report such an example and following up by modifying the solvothermal reaction conditions (temperature and time) it is possible to isolate the high mass species in crystalline form. [Zn_(4)L_(4)Cl_(4)] (Zn_(4)L_(4), L = N-methylbenzimidazole-2-methanolate) has a boat-like Zn_(4)O_(4) core but electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) of the solution of its crystals shows higher mass peaks of Zn_(5)L_(5), Zn_(5)L_(6) and Zn_(6)L_(6) species. Thus, both disassembly and reassembly are highly probable processes. Consequently, [Zn(HL)_(2)Cl_(2)] (Zn1, L = N-methylbenzimidazole-2-methanolate), [Zn_(4)L_(6)Cl_(2)] (Zn_(4)L_(6), L = N-methylbenzimidazole-2-methanolate) and [Zn_(6)L_(6)Cl_(4)(CH_(3)O)_(2)] (Zn_(6)L_(6), L = N-methylbenzimidazole-2-methanolate) were prepared. The results of multistage ESI-MS of their dissolved crystals led to a proposed mechanism of their formation in the gas phase as follows: [Zn_(3)L_(4)] through [ZnL] → [ZnL(HL)] → [Zn(HL)_(2)] → [Zn_(2)L] → [Zn_(2)L_(2)] → [Zn_(2)L_(3)]. The mechanism was derived in conjunction with Gibbs free energies calculated using DFT of the fragments observed in the ESI-MS of Zn_(4)L_(4), Zn_(4)L_(6) and Zn_(6)L_(6). This work reveals the complex of chemical reactions, involving fragmentation and unexpected combination, under mass spectrometry condition which allows one to synthesize the observed transients, leading to mechanism of formation by correlation of solid-state/solution structural information.
文摘Processes supported by process-aware information systems are subject to continuous and often subtle changes due to evolving operational,organizational,or regulatory factors.These changes,referred to as incremental concept drift,gradually alter the behavior or structure of processes,making their detection and localization a challenging task.Traditional process mining techniques frequently assume process stationarity and are limited in their ability to detect such drift,particularly from a control-flow perspective.The objective of this research is to develop an interpretable and robust framework capable of detecting and localizing incremental concept drift in event logs,with a specific emphasis on the structural evolution of control-flow semantics in processes.We propose DriftXMiner,a control-flow-aware hybrid framework that combines statistical,machine learning,and process model analysis techniques.The approach comprises three key components:(1)Cumulative Drift Scanner that tracks directional statistical deviations to detect early drift signals;(2)a Temporal Clustering and Drift-Aware Forest Ensemble(DAFE)to capture distributional and classification-level changes in process behavior;and(3)Petri net-based process model reconstruction,which enables the precise localization of structural drift using transition deviation metrics and replay fitness scores.Experimental validation on the BPI Challenge 2017 event log demonstrates that DriftXMiner effectively identifies and localizes gradual and incremental process drift over time.The framework achieves a detection accuracy of 92.5%,a localization precision of 90.3%,and an F1-score of 0.91,outperforming competitive baselines such as CUSUM+Histograms and ADWIN+Alpha Miner.Visual analyses further confirm that identified drift points align with transitions in control-flow models and behavioral cluster structures.DriftXMiner offers a novel and interpretable solution for incremental concept drift detection and localization in dynamic,process-aware systems.By integrating statistical signal accumulation,temporal behavior profiling,and structural process mining,the framework enables finegrained drift explanation and supports adaptive process intelligence in evolving environments.Its modular architecture supports extension to streaming data and real-time monitoring contexts.
