Over time, the performanceof PV modules gradually declines due to internal degradation and external environmental factors.This cumulativedegradation impacts the overall reliability of photovoltaic power generation. This study addresses the complexdegradation process of PV modules by developing a two-stage Wiener process model. This approach accountsfor the distinct phases of degradation resulting from module aging and environmental influences. A powerdegradation model based on the two-stage Wiener process is constructed to describe individual differences inmodule degradation processes. To estimate the model parameters, a combination of the Expectation-Maximization(EM) algorithm and the Bayesian method is employed. Furthermore, the Schwarz Information Criterion (SIC) isutilized to identify critical change points in PV module degradation trajectories. To validate the universality andeffectiveness of the proposed method, a comparative analysis is conducted against other established life predictiontechniques for PV modules.展开更多

To improve their performance, reduce their size, and increase production efficiency, this paper proposes a multiple staked direct bonded copper(DBC) unit based power module packaging method to parallel more chips. This method utilizes mutual inductance cancellation effect to reduce parasitic inductance. Because the conduction area in the new package is doubled, the overall area of power module can be reduced. Entire power module is divided into smaller units to enhance manufacture yield, and improve design freedom. This paper provides a detailed design, analysis and fabrication procedure for the proposed package structure. Additionally, this paper offers several feasible solutions for the connection between power terminals and DBC untis. With the structure, 18dies were paralleled for each phase-leg in a econodual size power module. Both simulation and double pulse test results demonstrate that, compared to conventional layouts, the proposed package method has 74.8% smaller parasitic inductance and 34.9% lower footprint.展开更多

AMC based on deep learning has recently attracted much attention due to its superior performances in classification accuracy and robustness. In this paper, we propose a novel, high resolution and multi-scale feature fusion convolutional neural network model with a squeeze-excitation block, referred to as HRSENet,to classify different kinds of modulation signals.The proposed model establishes a parallel computing mechanism of multi-resolution feature maps through the multi-layer convolution operation, which effectively reduces the information loss caused by downsampling convolution. Moreover, through dense skipconnecting at the same resolution and up-sampling or down-sampling connection at different resolutions, the low resolution representation of the deep feature maps and the high resolution representation of the shallow feature maps are simultaneously extracted and fully integrated, which is benificial to mine signal multilevel features. Finally, the feature squeeze and excitation module embedded in the decoder is used to adjust the response weights between channels, further improving classification accuracy of proposed model.The proposed HRSENet significantly outperforms existing methods in terms of classification accuracy on the public dataset “Over the Air” in signal-to-noise(SNR) ranging from-2dB to 20dB. The classification accuracy in the proposed model achieves 85.36% and97.30% at 4dB and 10dB, respectively, with the improvement by 9.71% and 5.82% compared to LWNet.Furthermore, the model also has a moderate computation complexity compared with several state-of-the-art methods.展开更多

文摘Most carbon-based catalysts utilized in Fenton-like systems face challenges such as structural instability,susceptibility to deactivation,and a tendency to disperse during operation.Wood-derived catalysts have garnered considerable attention due to their well-defined structures,extensive pipeline networks,superior mechanical strength,and adaptability for device customization.However,there remains a paucity of research that systematically summarizes Fenton-like systems based on wood-derived catalysts.In this review,we first summarize the structural designs of wood-derived catalysts based on nano-metal sites and single-atom sites,while also outlining their advantages and limitations applied in Fenton-like systems.Furthermore,we evaluate catalytic modules of wood-derived catalysts for scale-up and continuous Fenton-like systems.Additionally,wood-inspired catalytic materials utilizing commercial textures and their applications in Fenton-like processes are also discussed.This paper aims to comprehensively explore the fundamental mechanisms(e.g.,characteristics of catalytic sites,catalytic performance,and mechanisms)of wood-based catalysts in Fenton-like chemistry,as well as their equipment designs and application scenarios,as well as providing the insights into future developments.

文摘Currently,perovskite solar cells have achieved commendable progresses in power conversion efficiency(PCE)and operational stability.However,some conventional laboratory-scale fabrication methods become challenging when scaling up material syntheses or device production.Particularly,the prolonged high-temperature annealing process for the crystallization of perovskites requires a substantial amount of energy consumption and impact the modules’throughput.Here,we report a modified near-infrared annealing(NIRA)process,which involves the excess PbI_(2)engineered crystallization,efficiently reduces the preparation time for perovskite active layer to within 20 s compared to dozens of min in conventional hot plate annealing(HPA)process.The study showed that the incorporated PbI_(2)promoted the consistent nucleation of the perovskite film,leading to the subsequent rapid and homogeneous crystallization at the NIRA stage.Thus,highly crystalized perovskite film was realized with even better crystallization performance than conventional HPA-based film.Ultimately,efficient perovskite solar modules of 36 and 100 cm^(2)were readily fabricated with the optimal PCEs of 22.03%and 20.18%,respectively.This study demonstrates,for the first time,the successful achievement of homogeneous and high-quality crystallization in large-area perovskite films through rapid NIRA processing.This approach not only significantly reduces energy consumption during production,but also substantially shortens the manufacturing cycle,paving a new path toward the commercial-scale application of perovskite solar modules.
文摘Modules enable students to engage with content at their own pace,fostering autonomy and deeper understanding.The modular approach ensures clarity in presenting objectives,instructions,and concepts,while having illustrations,activities,and assessments could enhance comprehension and retention.This paper was a developmental study on STS module for college students using the ADDIE Model(Analysis,Design,Development,Implementation,and Evaluation).Sampled 673 first-year students from Northwest Samar State University participated in the study,with 299 participating in a test try-out and 374 in the students’performance evaluation.Three expert evaluators with backgrounds in science,English,and psychology,each with over four years of experience,assessed the modules to ensure alignment with the study’s constructivist learning goals and instructional integrity.The findings revealed that both students and experts had rated the instructional module positively,indicating its effectiveness in facilitating learning and completing lessons.Key aspects such as the style of illustrations and written expressions,the usefulness of learning activities,and the guidance provided by illustrations and captions were especially well-received.The module was praised for its clear objectives,understandable instructions,and engaging tasks like trivia and puzzles.Expert evaluations highlighted relevance,simplicity,and balanced emphasis on topics in the module content.Furthermore,students in test group demonstrated significant improvement in performance,with post-test scores notably higher than pre-test scores,confirming the module’s effectiveness in enhancing learning outcomes.Consequently,this paper provides an opportunity to integrate science learning with initiatives aimed at promoting environmental preservation and driving social change.

文摘Transcription factors(TFs)play key roles in the regulatory network of leaf senescence.However,many nodes in this network remain unclear.To elucidate the mechanism of leaf senescence mediated by a rice TF,WRKY10,the expression of multiple senescence-related genes and physiological phenotypes were monitored in WRKY10-and VQ MOTIF-CONTAINING PROTEIN8(VQ8)-overexpressing plants and the wrky10 and vq8 mutants.Our results showed that WRKY10 positively regulates abscisic acid(ABA)-and dark-induced senescence(DIS)by directly regulating the expression of multiple senescence-related genes.The VQ8 protein,a repressor of WRKY10,negatively regulates WRKY10-mediated DIS.The WRKY10-VQ8 module fine-tunes the progression of DIS.ABA,methyl jasmonate,and H_(2)O_(2) accelerate WRKY10-mediated DIS,whereas ammonium nitrate and dithiothreitol delay WRKY10-mediated DIS.Further analysis revealed that WRKY10 and VQ8 interact with ABA RESPONSIVE ELEMENT BINDING FACTOR1(ABF1)or ABF2.VQ8 represses the transcriptional activity of ABF1 and ABF2.Overexpression of ABF1 or ABF2 accelerates ABA-and dark-induced senescence and H_(2)O_(2) accumulation in N.benthamiana leaves,and WRKY10 and VQ8 can inhibit either ABF1-or ABF2-induced cell necrosis.Taken together,WRKY10 integrates multiple senescence signals to establish an orderly progression of leaf senescence.The VQ8 protein acts as a brake on WRKY10-induced senescence and ABF1/2-induced cell death,preventing uncontrolled cell death.

文摘The generation of high-quality,realistic face generation has emerged as a key field of research in computer vision.This paper proposes a robust approach that combines a Super-Resolution Generative Adversarial Network(SRGAN)with a Pyramid Attention Module(PAM)to enhance the quality of deep face generation.The SRGAN framework is designed to improve the resolution of generated images,addressing common challenges such as blurriness and a lack of intricate details.The Pyramid Attention Module further complements the process by focusing on multi-scale feature extraction,enabling the network to capture finer details and complex facial features more effectively.The proposed method was trained and evaluated over 100 epochs on the CelebA dataset,demonstrating consistent improvements in image quality and a marked decrease in generator and discriminator losses,reflecting the model’s capacity to learn and synthesize high-quality images effectively,given adequate computational resources.Experimental outcome demonstrates that the SRGAN model with PAM module has outperformed,yielding an aggregate discriminator loss of 0.055 for real,0.043 for fake,and a generator loss of 10.58 after training for 100 epochs.The model has yielded an structural similarity index measure of 0.923,that has outperformed the other models that are considered in the current study for analysis.

文摘Physical layer authentication(PLA)in the context of the Internet of Things(IoT)has gained significant attention.Compared with traditional encryption and blockchain technologies,PLA provides a more computationally efficient alternative to exploiting the properties of the wireless medium itself.Some existing PLA solutions rely on static mechanisms,which are insufficient to address the authentication challenges in fifth generation(5G)and beyond wireless networks.Additionally,with the massive increase in mobile device access,the communication security of the IoT is vulnerable to spoofing attacks.To overcome the above challenges,this paper proposes a lightweight deep convolutional neural network(CNN)equipped with squeeze and excitation module(SE module)in dynamic wireless environments,namely SE-ConvNet.To be more specific,a convolution factorization is developed to reduce the complexity of PLA models based on deep learning.Moreover,an SE module is designed in the deep CNN to enhance useful features andmaximize authentication accuracy.Compared with the existing solutions,the proposed SE-ConvNet enabled PLA scheme performs excellently in mobile and time-varying wireless environments while maintaining lower computational complexity.

文摘The intelligent vehicle corner module system,which integrates four-wheel independent drive,independent steering,independent braking and active suspension,can accurately and efficiently perform vehicle driving tasks and is the best carrier of intelligent vehicles.Nevertheless,too many angle/torque control inputs make control difficult and non-real-time.In this paper,a hierarchical real-time motion control framework for corner module configuration intelligent electric vehicles is proposed.In the trajectory planning module,an improved driving risk field is designed to describe the surrounding environment’s driving risk.Combined with the kinematic vehicle-road model,model predictive control(MPC)method,spline curve method,the local reference trajectory of safety,comfort and smoothness is planned in real time.The optimal steering angle is determined using MPC method in path tracking module.In the motion control module,a feedforward-feedback controller assigns the optimal steering angle to the front/rear axles,and an angle allocation controller distributes the target angles of the front/rear axles to four steered wheels.Finally,the PreScan-Simulink-CarSim joint simulation environment is established for conducting the human-in-the-loop emergency obstacle avoidance experiment.It took only 0.005 s for the hierarchical motion control system to determine its average solution time.This proves the effectiveness of the hierarchical motion control system.

文摘The secondary cell wall(SCW)is essential for plant growth and development in vascular plants,and its biosynthesis is mainly controlled by a complex hierarchical regulatory network involving multiple transcription factors(TFs)at the transcription level.However,TFs that specifically regulate secondary xylem have not been widely reported.In this study,we described a poplar KNOTTED1-like homeobox(KNOX)TF PtoKNAT3a1,which was mainly expressed in the expanding xylem cells of stems.PtoKNAT3a1 overexpression caused fiber SCW thickening and increased all measured SCW compositions by upregulating the expression of SCW-biosynthetic genes and-associated TFs,but had no effect on the vessels of SCW.The opposite phenotype was observed in the PtoKNAT3a1-knockout lines.Hence,we further demonstrated that Pto-KNAT3a1 could physically interact with the NAC master switches PtoWND2A/3A to enhance the expression of downstream MYB TFs and SCW biosynthetic genes(including PtoMYB20,PtoMYB21,PtoMYB90,PtoCoMT2,PtoGT43B and PtoCesA8).Meanwhile,the studies also demonstrate that the KNAT3 has functional differentiation in xylem development.Taken together,these data suggest that the KNAT3a1-WND2A/3A module positively regulates fiber development of the secondary xylem in poplar via the WND2A/3A-mediated hierarchical regulatory network,and supplies useful information for fiber SCW formation.The research not only deepens the understanding of the hierarchical regulatory network affecting SCW formation but also supplies genetic resources and molecular targets for plant fiber utilization.

文摘Gibberella stalk rot(GSR)caused by Fusarium graminearum is one of the most devastating diseases of maize,seriously impacting maize yield and quality,as well as the ability to use technology of mechanical harvesting.Environmental conditions including photoperiod affect crop disease resistance.However,the mechanism underlying photoperiod-regulated maize GSR resistance remains unexplored.We found in this study that GSR resistance is regulated by the ZmPIF4.1(Phytochrome-Interacting Factor4)-ZmPTI1c(Pto-Interacting 1)-ZmMYB31 module coupled with photoperiod.The functional analysis of zmpti1c mutant indicated that ZmPTI1c negatively regulates maize GSR resistance.Short day promoted the disease progression in both zmpti1c and wild-type plants.ZmPTI1c promoter contains multiple predicted cis-acting elements for light responses.Yeast one-hybrid assay(Y1H),Electrophoretic mobility shift analysis(EMSA),and Dual-luciferase(LUC)reporter assays demonstrated that ZmPIF4.1 binds to the G-box in ZmPTI1c promoter and activates its expression.Moreover,expression levels of ZmPIF4 and ZmPTI1c were significantly higher under short day than under long day.ZmPTI1c interacted with and phosphorylated ZmMYB31.GSR resistance in zmmyb31 mutant was significantly increased than in wild type,indicating that ZmMYB31 also negatively regulated GSR resistance.Furthermore,ZmMYB31 suppressed the transcriptional activation of ZmPTI1c by ZmPIF4.1.Overall,ZmPIF4.1-ZmPTI1c-ZmMYB31negatively regulates maize immunity to GSR,which is likely modulated by photoperiod.

文摘With the continuous development of artificial intelligence and machine learning techniques,there have been effective methods supporting the work of dermatologist in the field of skin cancer detection.However,object significant challenges have been presented in accurately segmenting melanomas in dermoscopic images due to the objects that could interfere human observations,such as bubbles and scales.To address these challenges,we propose a dual U-Net network framework for skin melanoma segmentation.In our proposed architecture,we introduce several innovative components that aim to enhance the performance and capabilities of the traditional U-Net.First,we establish a novel framework that links two simplified U-Nets,enabling more comprehensive information exchange and feature integration throughout the network.Second,after cascading the second U-Net,we introduce a skip connection between the decoder and encoder networks,and incorporate a modified receptive field block(MRFB),which is designed to capture multi-scale spatial information.Third,to further enhance the feature representation capabilities,we add a multi-path convolution block attention module(MCBAM)to the first two layers of the first U-Net encoding,and integrate a new squeeze-and-excitation(SE)mechanism with residual connections in the second U-Net.To illustrate the performance of our proposed model,we conducted comprehensive experiments on widely recognized skin datasets.On the ISIC-2017 dataset,the IoU value of our proposed model increased from 0.6406 to 0.6819 and the Dice coefficient increased from 0.7625 to 0.8023.On the ISIC-2018 dataset,the IoU value of proposed model also improved from 0.7138 to 0.7709,while the Dice coefficient increased from 0.8285 to 0.8665.Furthermore,the generalization experiments conducted on the jaw cyst dataset from Quzhou People’s Hospital further verified the outstanding segmentation performance of the proposed model.These findings collectively affirm the potential of our approach as a valuable tool in supporting clinical decision-making in the field of skin cancer detection,as well as advancing research in medical image analysis.
文摘Current research focuses on the performance degradation of photovoltaic(PV)modules,examining both crystalline silicon(p-Si and m-Si)and thin-film technologies,including a-Si/μc-Si,HIT,CdTe and CIGS.These modules were operated outdoors in two distinct climatic zones in the United States(US)over a period of three years.The degradation analysis includes the study of various quantities,such as the decrease in peak power,the reduction in current and voltage,and the variation in the fill factor.The annual degradation rate(DR)of PV modules is obtained by a linear fit of the effective maximum power evolution over time.The results indicate that m-Si and p-Si modules experienced a slight decrease in performance,with DRs of−0.83%and−1.07%,respectively.Subsequently,the HIT module exhibited a DR of−1.75%,while CdTe and CIGS modules demonstrated DRs of−2.03%and−2.45%,respectively.The a-Si/μc-Si module showed the highest DR at−3.26%.Using the Single Diode Model(SDM),we monitored the temporal evolution of physical parameters as well as changes in the shape of the I-V and P-V curves over time.We found that the key points of the I-V curve degrade over time,as do the I-V and P-V characteristics between two days approximately 30 months apart.

文摘Poly(3-hexylthiophene)(P3HT)is one of the most promising hole-transporting materials in the pursuit of efficient and stable perovskite solar cells due to its outstanding stability and low cost.However,the intrinsic low carrier density of P3 HT and poor contact between the P3HT/perovskite interface always lead to a low performance of the solar cell,while conventional chemical doping always makes the films unstable and limits the scalability.In this work,for the first time,we simultaneously enhanced the hole transporting properties of P3HT film and the interface of perovskite by doping it with a judiciously designed oxidized small molecule organic semiconductor.The organic salt not only can promote the lamellar crystallinity of P3HT to obtain better charge transport properties,but also reduce the defects of perovskite.As a result,we achieved champion efficiencies of 23.0%for small-area solar cells and 18.8%for larger-area modules(48.0 cm^(2)).This efficiency is the highest value for P3HT-based perovskite modules.Moreover,the solar cells show excellent operational stability,retaining over 95%of their initial efficiencies after1200 h of continuous operation.

文摘Silicon carbide(SiC) power modules play an essential role in the electric vehicle drive system. To improve their performance, reduce their size, and increase production efficiency, this paper proposes a multiple staked direct bonded copper(DBC) unit based power module packaging method to parallel more chips. This method utilizes mutual inductance cancellation effect to reduce parasitic inductance. Because the conduction area in the new package is doubled, the overall area of power module can be reduced. Entire power module is divided into smaller units to enhance manufacture yield, and improve design freedom. This paper provides a detailed design, analysis and fabrication procedure for the proposed package structure. Additionally, this paper offers several feasible solutions for the connection between power terminals and DBC untis. With the structure, 18dies were paralleled for each phase-leg in a econodual size power module. Both simulation and double pulse test results demonstrate that, compared to conventional layouts, the proposed package method has 74.8% smaller parasitic inductance and 34.9% lower footprint.

文摘Automatic modulation classification(AMC) technology is one of the cutting-edge technologies in cognitive radio communications. AMC based on deep learning has recently attracted much attention due to its superior performances in classification accuracy and robustness. In this paper, we propose a novel, high resolution and multi-scale feature fusion convolutional neural network model with a squeeze-excitation block, referred to as HRSENet,to classify different kinds of modulation signals.The proposed model establishes a parallel computing mechanism of multi-resolution feature maps through the multi-layer convolution operation, which effectively reduces the information loss caused by downsampling convolution. Moreover, through dense skipconnecting at the same resolution and up-sampling or down-sampling connection at different resolutions, the low resolution representation of the deep feature maps and the high resolution representation of the shallow feature maps are simultaneously extracted and fully integrated, which is benificial to mine signal multilevel features. Finally, the feature squeeze and excitation module embedded in the decoder is used to adjust the response weights between channels, further improving classification accuracy of proposed model.The proposed HRSENet significantly outperforms existing methods in terms of classification accuracy on the public dataset “Over the Air” in signal-to-noise(SNR) ranging from-2dB to 20dB. The classification accuracy in the proposed model achieves 85.36% and97.30% at 4dB and 10dB, respectively, with the improvement by 9.71% and 5.82% compared to LWNet.Furthermore, the model also has a moderate computation complexity compared with several state-of-the-art methods.
