We report an intelligent catalyst sizing and morphological classification method based on the Mask-RCNN framework. A dataset of 9880 high-resolution images was captured by using a self-made fiber-optic endoscopic system for 13 kinds of silicoaluminophosphate-34 (SAPO-34) catalyst samples with different coke. Then there were approximately 877881 individual particles extracted from this dataset by our AI-based particle recognition algorithm. To clearly describe the morphology of irregular particles, we proposed a hybrid classification criterion that combines five different parameters, which are deformity, circularity, roundness, aspect ratio, and compactness. Therefore, catalyst morphology can be classified into two categories with four types. The first category includes regular types, such as the spherical, ellipsoidal, and rod-shaped types. And all the irregular types fall into the second category. The experimental results showed that a catalyst particle tends to be larger when its coke deposition increased. Whereas particle morphology remained primarily spherical and ellipsoidal, the ratio of each type varied slightly according to its coke. Our findings illustrate that this is a promising approach to be developing intelligent instruments for catalyst particle sizing and classification.展开更多

文摘Morphological alterations in dendritic spines have been linked to changes in functional communication between neurons that affect learning and memory.Kinesin-4 KIF21A helps organize the microtubule-actin network at the cell cortex by interacting with KANK1;however,whether KIF21A modulates dendritic structure and function in neurons remains unknown.In this study,we found that KIF21A was distributed in a subset of dendritic spines,and that these KIF21A-positive spines were larger and more structurally plastic than KIF21A-negative spines.Furthermore,the interaction between KIF21A and KANK1 was found to be critical for dendritic spine morphogenesis and synaptic plasticity.Knockdown of either KIF21A or KANK1 inhibited dendritic spine morphogenesis and dendritic branching,and these deficits were fully rescued by coexpressing full-length KIF21A or KANK1,but not by proteins with mutations disrupting direct binding between KIF21A and KANK1 or binding between KANK1 and talin1.Knocking down KIF21A in the hippocampus of rats inhibited the amplitudes of long-term potentiation induced by high-frequency stimulation and negatively impacted the animals’cognitive abilities.Taken together,our findings demonstrate the function of KIF21A in modulating spine morphology and provide insight into its role in synaptic function.

文摘Zinc oxide(ZnO)serves as a crucial functional semiconductor with a wide direct bandgap of approximately 3.37 eV.Solvothermal reaction is commonly used in the synthesis of ZnO micro/nanostructures,given its low cost,simplicity,and easy implementation.Moreover,ZnO morphology engineering has become desirable through the alteration of minor conditions in the reaction process,particularly at room temperature.In this work,ZnO micro/nanostructures were synthesized in a solution by varying the amounts of the ammonia added at low temperatures(including room temperature).The formation of Zn^(2+)complexes by ammonia in the precursor regulated the reaction rate of the morphology engineering of ZnO,which resulted in various structures,such as nanoparticles,nanosheets,microflowers,and single crystals.Finally,the obtained ZnO was used in the optoelectronic application of ultraviolet detectors.

文摘The preferential oxidation of CO(CO-PROX)reaction is a cost-effective method for eliminating trace amounts of CO from the fuel H2.Pt-based catalysts have been extensively studied for COPROX,with their activity influenced by the morphology of the support.Hydrothermal synthesis was employed to produce different morphologies ofγ-Al_(2)O_(3):flower-likeγ-Al_(2)O_(3)(f)exposing(110)crystal faces,sheet-likeγ-Al_(2)O_(3)(s)revealing(100)crystal faces,and rod-likeγ-Al_(2)O_(3)(r)displaying(111)crystal faces,followed by loading PtCo nanoparticles.The exposed crystal faces of the support impact the alloying degree of the PtCo nanoparticles,and an increase in the alloying degree correlates with enhanced catalyst reactivity.Pt_(3)Co intermetallic compounds were identified onγ-Al_(2)O_(3)(f)exposing(110)crystal faces,and PtCo/γ-Al_(2)O_(3)(f)showed high catalytic activity in the CO-PROX reaction,achieving 100%CO conversion across a broad temperature range of 50−225°C.In contrast,only partial alloying of PtCo was observed onγ-Al_(2)O_(3)(s).Furthermore,no alloying between Pt and Co occurred in PtCo/γ-Al_(2)O_(3)(r),resulting in a reaction rate at 50°C that was merely 11%of that of PtCo/γ-Al_(2)O_(3)(f).The formation of Pt3Co intermetallic compounds led to a more oxidized state of Pt,which significantly diminished the adsorption of CO on Pt and augmented the active oxygen species,thereby facilitating the selective oxidation of CO.
文摘Harrat Lunayyir,a volcanic field in western Saudi Arabia,exhibits diverse geomorphological and topographical features shaped by volcanic,tectonic,and climatic processes.This study integrates field observations,remote sensing,and GIS analysis to investigate the spatial distribution and relationships between volcanic landforms,lava flows,and topographical variation result obtained is a morphological classification of the cinder cones of Harrat Lunayyir,which can be sub-divided into four types:tephra rings,horseshoe-shaped volcanoes,multiple volcanoes and volcanoes without craters.All of these are monogenetic volcanoes,unlike central volcanoes(stratovolcanoes)which live for tens or hundreds of thousands of years and erupt numerous times.In Harrat Lunayyir,there is a clear dominance of arched horseshoe-shaped volcanoes(58)over ring-shaped cinder cones(10),A1_symmetric cones(circular,uniform cinder cones with a single crater)(32),A2_asymmetric cones(elongated,irregular cones and may feature one or more craters)(8),volcanoes without craters(55)and multiple volcanoes(20).The classification presented in this paper makes it possible to include all morphological types of volcanoes found in the region.This fact also renders the present classification a useful tool to apply in other,both insular and continental volcanic areas to eventually analyze and systematize the study of eruptive edifices with similar traits.Hence,this research will explore the standard physical volcanology literature so as to follow accepted definitions.

文摘Cryptocaryon irritans is the parasite responsible for“white spot disease”in the yellowfin seabream Acanthopagrus latus,which has caused significant losses to the aquaculture industry.This experiment investigated the changes in the morphology,transcriptome,and proteome of gill tissue in yellowfin seabream infected with C.irritans,aiming to provide foundational data for further understanding the pathogenic mechanisms and control measures against this parasite.The main findings were as follows,after C.irritans infection,the structure of gill tissue in yellowfin seabream was damaged,with microvessels ruptured,some cells proliferating,and large amounts of mucus infiltrating.Transcriptome analysis revealed a total of 4299 differentially expressed genes,with 2367 up-regulated and 1932down-regulated.Further bioinformatics analysis of all differentially expressed genes identified nine immune-related genes,cox-2,mcama,tbx21,dcn,tnfb,cd74a,illb,ppib,and cd4-1 in A.latus.The reliability of the transcriptome data was validated by real time q PCR,which showed the same trend as the RNA-seq results.Proteome analysis found365 differential proteins,with 180 proteins up-regulated and 185 proteins down-regulated.Bioinformatics analysis identified three immune-related proteins,Myll,Gapdh,and Actn3b.These findings indicated that C.irritans disrupted the structure of gill tissue,impeded gas exchange and led to asphyxiation and death in affected fish.Transcriptome and proteome analyses showed that the expression of immune-related genes and proteins in yellowfin seabream,involved not only inflammatory responses and the activation and migration of immune cells but also potentially participated in tissue repair and defense regulation.These findings highlighted the complex immune regulatory network in response to C.irritans infection,offering references for prevention and control of white spot disease in yellowfin seabream.

文摘This study investigates the effects of honey concentration on the crystallinity,morphology,and thermal behavior of zein-based polymer systems,aiming to assess honey’s role as a natural plasticizer.Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FTIR)analysis confirmed the presence of strong intermolecular interactions and hydrogen bonding between zein and honey,indicating good miscibility.X-ray diffraction(XRD)patterns revealed a significant reduction in crystallinity with increasing honey concentration up to 25 wt.%,with the ZH5(75 wt.%zein-25 wt.%honey)sample exhibiting the smallest crystallite size(4.23 nm),suggesting enhanced amorphous character suitable for ionic mobility.Field emission scanning electron micrograph(FESEM)images of ZH5 displayed a homogeneous porousfiber-like morphology,while excess honey beyond 25 wt.%led to agglomeration and phase separation.Thermal analysis demonstrated improved thermal stability for ZH5,with a higher decomposition temperature and greater residual mass.Differential scanning calorimetry(DSC)results showed a single glass transition temperature(Tg)for ZH5 at 88.4℃,indicating good miscibility between honey and zein materials.These findings identify 25 wt.%honey as the optimal concentration for plasticization,modifying zein’s structure and enhancing its amorphous nature and thermal resilience.The results highlight the potential of honey as a sustainable and multifunctional plasticizer for the development of biodegradable and eco-friendly polymer electrolyte systems.
文摘The East China Sea(ECS)off the Coast of Zhoushan Archipelago,Zhejiang(ECS-CZA)is home to abundant fishery resources and an important spawning,feeding,and nursing ground for a variety of fish species.Due to long-term overfishing,the ichthyoplankton structure has been dramatically altered.Understanding the species composition and distribution of fish eggs and larvae is one of the most essential tasks to accurately regulate fishery resources and formulate effective management policies;however,little is known about the ichthyoplankton in this region.In this study,an integrated strategy of morphology identification(MI)and mitochondrial COI DNA barcoding was used to identify species of fish eggs and larvae collected from the ECSCZA.MI revealed 15 fish egg species belonging to 12 families and 12 fish larva species belonging to 12 families;in contrast,DNA barcoding altogether identified 30 species,including 18 fish egg species and 13 fish larva species.One species was shared between the egg and larva samples.Our study offers useful tools and critical scientific information for further understanding the diversity,distribution,and conservation management of various ichthyoplankton species in the marine environment.

文摘Morphology,the study of shapes or forms,when applied to tourism,emphasizes the multifarious spatial practices between morphological elements and tourism activities.However,existing literature on morphology in the context of tourism usually only focuses on a single or a limited number of study areas,overlooking common or even universal patterns across various tourism destinations.To address this gap,we utilize geospatial big data and present a case study on the morphology of 406“AAAAA”-rated scenic areas in China.A framework based on“points”,“lines”,“planes”,and“solids”was designed to systematically organize and analyze morphological elements across scenic areas.The findings provide valuable insights for tourism planning and development,such as the co-occurrence of dense road networks and fragmented landscapes within scenic areas,as well as the resourcecontext-influenced(cultural or natural)associations between morphological features and tourism indicators.This research provides valuable strategic guidance for more effective and informed tourism development while acknowledging the trade-offs between generalizability and local specificity.

文摘The operation of cascade reservoirs in a watershed profoundly exerts river watersediment dynamics and topography evolution,and the terminal reservoir is the focus area for river and waterway management.This paper reveals the process and underlying factors of topography evolution and water level adjustment in the lower Hanjiang River under the action of cascade reservoirs.This study focused on the 263 km river channel downstream of the Xinglong Hydropower Conservancy Project on the Hanjiang River.Using measured flow,sediment,and topography data from 1977 to 2023,we analyzed the changing characteristics of riverbed scouring and deposition intensity,thalweg,and cross-sections.Additionally,we evaluated the response relationship between riverbed scouring and deposition intensity and factors such as sediment transport,runoff,and human activities.From 1977 to 2023,the low-water channel in the Xinglong-Estuary reaches showed a scouring and cutting tendency,and the riverbed slop initially decreased and then increased.The main cause of the riverbed scouring along the Xinglong-Estuary reaches was the reduced sediment load in the watershed,with waterway engineering having a slightly larger influence than runoff in the Xinglong-Xiantao reaches;by contrast,runoff exerted a more significant effect than both waterway engineering and the Yangtze River water level decline in the Xiantao-Estuary reaches.During the autumn flood season from 1983 to 2023,the water level differences between the Hanjiang and Yangtze Rivers at the same flow rate showed an increasing trend,leading to an increase in water surface slope,which intensified scouring forces and riverbed scouring.This study improves our understanding of the impacts of dam construction on river topographical evolution,water level changes,and deep‐water waterway resources.

文摘This study aims to develop a high-precision and cost-efficient method for the threedimensional reconstruction of large particles in natural gravel and blasted rock fragments,utilizing Structure from Motion(SfM)and Multi-View Stereo(MVS)techniques.The proposed approach was applied to characterize the three-dimensional morphology of rockfill dam materials at a real construction site.Particle shape was quantitatively analyzed using shape indices of sphericity,convexity,and angularity.The predominant morphology of natural gravel is characterized as slightly elongated and slightly flat,while rock fragments are slightly elongated and not flat.Probability density distributions of shape indices follow a skewed normal distribution:sphericity and convexity show leftward skewness,whereas angularity is right-skewed.Skewness parameters of sphericity and angularity are consistent between natural gravel and blasted rock fragments,indicating comparable shape asymmetry.Convexity skewness is significantly higher in natural gravel compared to rock fragments,by approximately an order of magnitude.The relationship between size and particle shape shows that form ratios and associated shape descriptors change linearly with the logarithm of size;larger particles approach spherical or cubic forms.The innovative measurements contribute to the particle shape data set of rockfill dam materials,providing valuable insights into the three-dimensional and statistical morphological characteristics of relatively large particles in natural gravel and blasted rock fragments.This approach enhances understanding of particle morphology's impact on the mechanical behavior of granular materials.

文摘Accurately acquiring catalyst size and morphology is essential for supporting catalytic reaction process design and optimal control. We report an intelligent catalyst sizing and morphological classification method based on the Mask-RCNN framework. A dataset of 9880 high-resolution images was captured by using a self-made fiber-optic endoscopic system for 13 kinds of silicoaluminophosphate-34 (SAPO-34) catalyst samples with different coke. Then there were approximately 877881 individual particles extracted from this dataset by our AI-based particle recognition algorithm. To clearly describe the morphology of irregular particles, we proposed a hybrid classification criterion that combines five different parameters, which are deformity, circularity, roundness, aspect ratio, and compactness. Therefore, catalyst morphology can be classified into two categories with four types. The first category includes regular types, such as the spherical, ellipsoidal, and rod-shaped types. And all the irregular types fall into the second category. The experimental results showed that a catalyst particle tends to be larger when its coke deposition increased. Whereas particle morphology remained primarily spherical and ellipsoidal, the ratio of each type varied slightly according to its coke. Our findings illustrate that this is a promising approach to be developing intelligent instruments for catalyst particle sizing and classification.

文摘To achieve high production of arachidonic acid(ARA)through industrial fermentation of Mortierella alpina,the correlation between metal ions,mycelium pellet morphology and ARA production was investigated.By adding different metal ions to the culture medium,observing the morphological differences of mycelium pellet,total oil production and ARA content and established a correlation between them.The results showed that adding sodium ions increase the density of mycelium pellet,while reducing the diameter of mycelium pellet,resulting in a 41.59%increase in ARA production.Potassium ions,magnesium ions,calcium ions and iron ions slightly reduce the diameter of fungal hyphae and increase ARA production by 7.47%,17.81%,36.05%and 9.37%,respectively.At the same time,calcium ions promoted the branching growth of mycelium,which solve the problem of excessive free mycelium in fermentation broth within a certain concentration range.Zinc ions had a negative impact on bacterial growth,leading to the formation of mycelium clumps in the fermentation broth.Manganese ions and ferrous ions could transform the morphology of fungal mycelium into a smooth spherical surface,which was not conducive to the growth of M.alpina and the accumulation of oil.The comprehensive results showed that the optimal fermentation mycelium form for M.alpina was a dense central and loosely packed mycelium pellet.The yield of ARA was directly proportional to the density of mycelium pellet and inversely proportional to the diameter of mycelium pellet.

文摘Multimaterial digital light processing(DLP)three-dimensional(3D)printing technology provides unique advantages in the field of multi material additive manufacturing(MM AM)with its high resolution and rapid shaping capabilities based on photopolymerization.However,owing to differences in the curing behavior and physical properties of different materials,multimaterial DLP 3D printing faces challenges such as insufficient interfacial bonding strength and unstable mechanical properties.In this study,two resins were integrated by multimaterial DLP 3D printing technology,and the effects of different layer thicknesses and exposure times on the interfacial bonding strength and morphology of the multimaterials were systematically investigated.The interfacial bonding mechanisms of the two resins was analyzed.It was found that increasing the exposure time can improve the interfacial bonding strength between materials,but certain limitations exist.A mathematical model relating the interfacial bonding strength to the exposure time and layer thickness was developed,and optimal process parameters were determined using optimization algorithms.A variable-parameter printing strategy for the interface was proposed to further improve the performance of printed parts.The maximum tensile strength of the multimaterial samples(44.43 MPa)using this strategy reached that of single-material parts(45 MPa),validating the feasibility of this strategy.This provides guidance for multimaterial DLP 3D printing processes and offers valuable insights for the future additive manufacturing of high-performance multimaterial components.
