METHODS One hundred and twenty-seven patients clinically suspected of having pulmonary embolism underwent spiral CTPA, out of whom fifty-seven received 75 mL and the remaining seventy a lower dose of 60 mL of contrast agent. Both doses were administered in a multiphasic injection. A minimum opacification threshold of 250 Hounsfield units(HU) in the main pulmonary artery is used for assessing the technical adequacy of the scans. RESULTS Mean opacification was found to be positively correlated to patient age(Pearson's correlation 0.4255, P < 0.0001) and independent of gender(male:female, 425.6 vs 450.4,P = 0.34). When age is accounted for, the study and control groups did not differ significantly in their mean opacification in the main(436.8 vs 437.9, P = 0.48),left(416.6 vs 419.8, P = 0.45) or the right pulmonary arteries(417.3 vs 423.5, P = 0.40). The number of sub-optimally opacified scans(the mean opacification in the main pulmonary artery < 250 HU) did not differ significantly between the study and control groups(7 vs 10).CONCLUSION A lower dose of iodine contrast at 60 mL can be feasibly used in CTPA without resulting in a higher number of sub-optimally opacified scans.展开更多

They can lead to irreversible joint damage and increase the risk of progression to osteoarthritis. Current treatments for osteochondral injuries are not curative and only target symptoms, highlighting the need for a tissue engineering solution. Scaffold-based approaches can be used to assist osteochondral tissue regeneration, where biomaterials tailored to the properties of cartilage and bone are used to restore the defect and minimise the risk of further joint degeneration. This review captures original research studies published since 2015, on multiphasic scaffolds used to treat osteochondral defects in animal models. These studies used an extensive range of biomaterials for scaffold fabrication, consisting mainly of natural and synthetic polymers. Different methods were used to create multiphasic scaffold designs, including by integrating or fabricating multiple layers, creating gradients, or through the addition of factors such as minerals, growth factors, and cells. The studies used a variety of animals to model osteochondral defects, where rabbits were the most commonly chosen and the vast majority of studies reported small rather than large animal models. The few available clinical studies reporting cell-free scaffolds have shown promising early-stage results in osteochondral repair, but long-term follow-up is necessary to demonstrate consistency in defect restoration. Overall, preclinical studies of multiphasic scaffolds show favourable results in simultaneously regenerating cartilage and bone in animal models of osteochondral defects, suggesting that biomaterials-based tissue engineering strategies may be a promising solution.展开更多

Herein, this work reports the transformation of two-dimensional (2D) layered fiber mats into three-dimensional (3D) multiphasic scaffolds using a ‘solids-of-revolution’ inspired gas-foaming expansion technology. These scaffolds feature precise control over fiber alignment, pore size, and regional structure. Manipulating nanofiber mat layers and Pluronic F127 concentrations allows further customization of pore size and fiber alignment within different scaffold regions. The cellular response to multiphasic scaffolds demonstrates that the number of cells migrated and proliferated onto the scaffolds is mainly dependent on the pore size rather than fiber alignment. In vivo subcutaneous implantation of multiphasic scaffolds to rats reveals substantial cell infiltration, neo tissue formation, collagen deposition, and new vessel formation within scaffolds, greatly surpassing the capabilities of traditional nanofiber mats. Histological examination indicates the importance of optimizing pore size and fiber alignment for the promotion of cell infiltration and tissue regeneration. Overall, these scaffolds have potential applications in tissue modeling, studying tissue-tissue interactions, interface tissue engineering, and highthroughput screening for optimized tissue regeneration.展开更多

How...Molybdenum ditelluride (MoTe2), which is an important transition-metal dichalcogenide, has attracted considerable interest owing to its unique properties, such as its small bandgap and large Seebeck coefficient. However, the batch production of monolayer MoTe2 has been rarely reported. In this study, we demonstrate the synthesis of large-domain (edge length exceeding 30 μm), monolayer MoTe2 from chemical vapor deposition-grown monolayer MoS2 using a chalcogen atom-exchange synthesis route. An in-depth investigation of the tellurization process reveals that the substitution of S atoms by Te is prevalently initiated at the edges and grain boundaries of the monolayer MoS2, which differs from the homogeneous selenization of MoS2 flakes with the formation of alloyed Mo-S-Se hybrids. Moreover, we detect a large compressive strain (approximately -10%) in the transformed MoTe2 lattice, which possibly drives the phase transition from 2H to 1T' at the reaction temperature of 500 ℃. This phase change is substantiated by experimental facts and first-principles calculations. This work introduces a novel route for the templated synthesis of two-dimensional layered materials through atom substitutional chemistry and provides a new pathway for engineering the strain and thus the intriguing physics and chemistry.展开更多

Manipulating nanofiber mat layers and Pluronic F127 concentrations allows further customization of pore size and fiber alignment within different scaffold regions. The cellular response to multiphasic scaffolds demonstrates that the number of cells migrated and proliferated onto the scaffolds is mainly dependent on the pore size rather than fiber alignment. In vivo subcutaneous implantation of multiphasic scaffolds to rats reveals substantial cell infiltration, neo tissue formation, collagen deposition, and new vessel formation within scaffolds, greatly surpassing the capabilities of traditional nanofiber mats. Histological examination indicates the importance of optimizing pore size and fiber alignment for the promotion of cell infiltration and tissue regeneration. Overall, these scaffolds have potential applications in tissue modeling, studying tissue-tissue interactions, interface tissue engineering, and highthroughput screening for optimized tissue regeneration.

文摘Molybdenum ditelluride (MoTe2), which is an important transition-metal dichalcogenide, has attracted considerable interest owing to its unique properties, such as its small bandgap and large Seebeck coefficient. However, the batch production of monolayer MoTe2 has been rarely reported. In this study, we demonstrate the synthesis of large-domain (edge length exceeding 30 μm), monolayer MoTe2 from chemical vapor deposition-grown monolayer MoS2 using a chalcogen atom-exchange synthesis route. An in-depth investigation of the tellurization process reveals that the substitution of S atoms by Te is prevalently initiated at the edges and grain boundaries of the monolayer MoS2, which differs from the homogeneous selenization of MoS2 flakes with the formation of alloyed Mo-S-Se hybrids. Moreover, we detect a large compressive strain (approximately -10%) in the transformed MoTe2 lattice, which possibly drives the phase transition from 2H to 1T' at the reaction temperature of 500 ℃. This phase change is substantiated by experimental facts and first-principles calculations. This work introduces a novel route for the templated synthesis of two-dimensional layered materials through atom substitutional chemistry and provides a new pathway for engineering the strain and thus the intriguing physics and chemistry.

文摘Magnesium hydride(MgH_(2))has garnered significant attention as a promising material for high-capacity hydrogen storage.However,its commercial application remains challenging due to the high operating temperature and slow reaction kinetics.In this study,melt-spun Ti_(45)Cr_(40)Nb_(15)(with a BCC phase)hydride(designated as TiCrNbH_(x-)MS)was synthesized and used to form a nano-multiphase composite to improve the de-/rehydrogenation properties of MgH_(2) through ball milling.The incorporation of TiCrNbH_(x-)MS was shown to significantly enhance the hydrogen de-/rehydrogenation properties of MgH_(2).The MgH_(2)+20 wt%TiCrNbH_(x-)MS composite exhibits an appealing initial dehydrogenation temperature of 163℃ and can absorb hydrogen at room temperature.Notably,it releases 5.8 wt% hydrogen in 700 s at 230℃ and recharges 4.3 wt%hydrogen in just 2 mins at 150℃.Even after 100 cycles,it retains a reversible hydrogen capacity of 4.98 wt%.Kinetic analysis revealed that the dehydrogenation rate follows the Chou surface penetration model.Microstructural analysis showed that the FCC phase of the melt-spun TiCrNbH_(x-)MS hydride reversibly transformed into the BCC phase during the de-/rehydrogenation process in the composite.Numerous phase interfaces were generated and uniformly dispersed on the MgH_(2) surface,providing additional hydrogen diffusion pathways and heterogeneous nucleation sites for Mg/MgH_(2),thereby further improving the hydrogen de-/rehydrogenation kinetics of the system.This study offers valuable insights into the use of multiphase composites to enhance MgH_(2) performance.

文摘Multiphase flow in porous rock is of great importance in the application of many industrial processes,including reservoir delineation,enhanced oil recovery,and CO_(2) sequestration.However,previous research typically investigated the dispersive behaviors when rock saturated with single or two-phase fluids and conducted limited studies on three-phase immiscible fluids.This study investigated the seismic dispersion,attenuation,and reflection features of seismic waves in three-phase immiscible fluidsaturated porous rocks.First,we proposed the calculation formulas of effective fluid modulus and effective fluid viscosity of multiphase immiscible fluids by taking into account the capillary pressure,reservoir wettability,and relative permeability simultaneously.Then,we analysed the frequencydependent behaviors of three-phase immiscible fluid-saturated porous rock under different fluid proportion cases using the Chapman multi-scale model.Next,the seismic responses are analysed using a four-layer model.The results indicate that the relative permeability,capillary pressure parameter,and fluid proportions are all significantly affect dispersion and attenuation.Comparative analyses demonstrate that dispersion and attenuation can be observed within the frequency range of seismic exploration for a lower capillary parameter a3 and higher oil content.Seismic responses reveal that the reflection features,such as travel time,seismic amplitude,and waveform of the bottom reflections of saturated rock and their underlying reflections are significantly dependent on fluid proportions and capillary parameters.For validation,the numerical results are further verified using the log data and real seismic data.This numerical analysis helps to further understand the wave propagation characteristics for a porous rock saturated with multiphase immiscible fluids.

文摘Based on the energy dissipation caused by consolidation deformation of the porous media under external force and migration of the internal suspended substances,a coupled multiphase-substance flow(CMF)model was established.This model introduced the new concepts,such as particle temperature and particle entropy,to describe energy dissipation at meso-level.This model used a potential energy density function and migration coefficients to establish the corresponding connection between the dissipative force and dissipative flow.This viewpoint unifies the deformation,seepage,and suspended substance migration of geotechnical materials under the framework of granular thermodynamics.It can reflect the evolution of effective stress in the solid matrix of multi-components in a particle-reorganized state,and considers the temperature driving effect.The proposed CMF model is validated using the experimental results under coupled migration of heavy metal ions(HMs)and suspended particles(SPs).The calculation results demonstrated that the CMF model can describe the flow process under the conditions of arbitrary changes in different suspended substance types,injection concentrations,and injection velocities.

文摘Matter conductivities are crucial physical properties that directly determine the engineering application value of materials.In reality,the majority of materials are multiphase composites.However,there is currently a lack of theoretical models to accurately predict the conductivities of composite materials.In this study,we develop a unified mixed conductivity(UMC)model,achieving unity in three aspects:(1)a unified description and prediction for different conductivities,including elastic modulus,thermal conductivity,electrical conductivity,magnetic permeability,liquid permeability coefficient,and gas diffusion coefficient;(2)a unified-form governing equation for mixed conductivities of various composite structures,conforming to the Riccati equation;(3)a unified-form composite structure,i.e.,a three-dimensional multiphase interpenetrating cuboid structure,encompassing over a dozen of typical composite structures as its specific cases.The UMC model is applicable for predicting the conductivity across six different types of physical fields and over a dozen different composite structures,providing a broad range of applications.Therefore,the current study deepens our understanding of the conduction phenomena and offers a powerful theoretical tool for predicting the conductivities of composite materials and optimizing their structures,which holds significant scientific and engineering implications.

文摘Icing of water droplets is a ubiquitous phenomenon with significant implications across natural systems and industrial applications.Despite extensive research,the intricate interplay among heat transfer,mass transport,and phase change during droplet freezing remains incompletely understood,particularly in the context of multiscale dynamics and environmental dependencies.This review critically examines recent advances in uncovering the fundamental mechanisms of droplet icing through experimental,theoretical,and computational approaches.We begin by revisiting the classical tip singularity problem in the freezing of pure water droplets,analyzing its mathematical formulation and physical significance.Subsequent sections explore how environmental boundary conditions and multicomponent effects influence freezing kinetics,solute redistribution,and ice morphology.Furthermore,we evaluate emerging hybrid numerical frameworks that resolve coupled multiphase physics during solidification processes.Finally,we identify key challenges and open questions that require further investigation in this field.

文摘Increasing the sintering rate of powder compact is a critical challenge of powder metallurgical materials,and adjusting component distribution in particles aggregate present significant effect on the microstructure of sintered product,especially for multi-phase compact with local heterogeneity.Here,a case study of W–Ni–Co powder compact was adopted to illustrate the novel strategy to enhance the sintering of multi-phase compact with desired microstructure by adjusting the particle configurations.The plasma synthesis route was developed for the first time to independently adjust the configurations of W–Ni–Co nanopowders with core-shell and homogeneous structures,which facilitates to ascertain the sintering response induced exclusively by particle configurations.Comparison on sintering response further indicates that core-shell powder presents greatly promoted sintering than homogeneous one,and full-dense and uniform compact with grain size of 1.37μm was obtained by solid sintering,which is several to dozens of times smaller than that obtained by conventional liquid sintering.Theoretical and experimental Investigation on elemental immigration visualized the distinct mass diffusion behavior of powder compacts,and clarified the mass transport path promoted densification mechanism determined by powder configurations.Importantly,full-coherent phase interface induced superior strength and plasticity in alloy sintered using core-shell powder,which highlights the importance of microstructural regulation on improving the mechanical property that superior than most of previously reported tungsten heavy alloys.In summary,this work paves a new way for fast sintering of multi-phase compacts,and provides intrinsic understandings on densification mechanism of powder compact.

文摘Submarine landslides frequently occur on continental margins and slopes,thereby causing serious damage to offshore structures.Therefore,analyzing their motion behavior and predicting their impact forces are crucial.In this work,the smooth particle hydrodynamics(SPH)algorithm is used in the development of a multiphase flow model for submarine landslides.The underwater landslide and the ambient water are simulated using the non-Newtonian and Newtonian fluid models,respectively.An artificial diffusion term of density is incorporated in the governing equation,and the equation of state is modified to improve the stability and accuracy of the SPH model.Three benchmark problems are simulated using the SPH model.The effect of SPH particle size on the simulated results is also explored.The effects of the rheological parameters on the landslide motion behavior are investigated by conducting a sensitivity analysis.Numerical results fit the experimental data well,indicating the good stability of the SPH model and its accuracy in simulating the motion and impact behavior of submarine landslides.

文摘Zirconium-based metal-organic cages(Zr-MOCs)typically exhibit high stability,but their structural and application reports are scarce due to stringent crystallization conditions.We have successfully fluorinated the classical Zr-MOCs(ZrT-3)for the first time,obtaining the fluorinated MOCs(ZrT-3-F).Notably,ZrT-3-F not only inherits the high stability of its parent structure,but also acts as a catalyst for the effective oxidation of benzyl thioether for the first time.The reaction can reach a conversion rate of 99%in 6 h,and the selectivity reaches 95%,which far exceeds the non-fluorinated ZrT-3.This work proves that the specific functionalization of the classical Zr-MOCs can further expand their application potential,such as catalysis.

文摘Powder-Fueled Water Ramjet Engine(PFWRE)is of great attraction for high-speed and long-voyage underwater propulsion,as well as air–water trans-media navigation applications due to its high energy density and thrust adjustability.However,the complex multiphase combustion process in the combustor significantly affects engine performance.In this study,a detailed model for aluminum particle combustion in water vapor is developed and validated via literature data as well as the ground direct-connected test we conducted.Thereafter,the numerical study on the multiphase combustion process inside the aluminum-based PFWRE combustor is carried out within the Euler–Lagrange framework using the developed model.Results show that a reverse rotating vortex pair before the primary water injection causes particles to flow back towards the combustor head and leads to product deposition.Aluminum particles external to the powder jet have shorter preheating time than internal particles and burn out in advance.The analysis of the particle combustion process indicates that the flame structure inside the combustor consists of the particle preheating zone,the surface combustion heat release zone,the gas-phase combustion heat release zone,and the post-flame zone.In the present configuration,as the particle size increases from 10μm to 20μm,the preheating zone length increases from 35 mm to 85 mm.Meanwhile,heat release from gas-phase combustion decreases,and the average temperature of the combustor head first increases and then decreases.This study not only provides insight into the multiphase combustion characteristics of the aluminum-based PFWRE combustor but also offers guidance for the design of the combustion organization schemes and engine structure optimization.

文摘The rational construction of heterogeneous interfacial engineering presents a critical strategy for advancing efficient electrochemical water-splitting development.Here,a bimetallic sulfide-coupled MoNi alloy heterostructure catalyst(VMoS/MoNi)is synthesized via hydrothermal and sulfidation methods for high-performance alkaline water electrolysis.Benefiting from interfacial coupling within the VMoS/MoNi catalyst,the active sites are enriched,and electron transfer is promoted,leading to enhanced synergy and collaboration in electrocatalytic reactions.As a result,at 10 mA·cm^(-2),the VMoS/MoNi catalyst demonstrates excellent HER(26 mV)and OER(223 mV)performance.VMoS/MoNi catalysts used as double electrode in an alkaline electrolytic assembly are noteworthy for achieving a cell voltage of 1.56 V at 10 mA·cm^(-2),a significant improvement above most previously reported bifunctional electrocatalysts.This result provides further momentum for the design of heterostructure electrocatalysts,advancing the study of renewable energy conversion and storage.
文摘This study calculates the combustion characteristics of various gas-generating and micro gas pyrotechnic charges,including aluminium/potassium perchlorate,boron/potassium nitrate,carbon black/potassium nitrate,and silicon-based delay compositions,using thermodynamic software.A multiphase flowthermal-solid coupling model was established,and the combustion process of the pyrotechnic charges within a closed bomb was simulated.The pyrotechnic shock generated by combustion was predicted.The combustion pressures and pyrotechnic shocks were measured.The simulation results demonstrated good agreement with experimental results.Additionally,the mechanism of shock generation by the combustion of pyrotechnic charges in the closed bomb was analyzed.The effects of the combustion characteristics of the pyrotechnic charges on the resulting pyrotechnic shocks were systematically investigated.Notably,the shock response spectrum of the gas-generating pyrotechnic charges is greater than that of the micro gas compositions at most frequencies,particularly in the mid-field pyrotechnic shocks(3-10 kHz).Furthermore,the pyrotechnic shocks increase approximately linearly with the impulse of the gas-generating pyrotechnic charges.
