文摘Potassium(K)is known to enhance the catalytic performance of Fe-based catalysts in the reverse water-gas shift(rWGS)reaction,which is highly relevant during Fischer-Tropsch(FT)synthesis of CO_(2)-H_(2) mixtures.To elucidate the mechanistic role of K promoter,we employed density functional theory(DFT)calculations in conjunction with microkinetic modelling for two representative surface terminations of Hägg carbide(χ-Fe_(5)C_(2)),i.e.,(010)and(510).K_(2)O results in stronger adsorption of CO_(2)and H_(2) on Hägg carbide and promotes C–O bond dissociation of adsorbed CO_(2)by increasing the electron density on Fe atoms close to the promoter oxide.The increased electron density of the surface Fe atoms results in an increased electron-electron repulsion with bonding orbitals of adsorbed CO_(2).Microkinetics simulations predict that K_(2)O increases the CO_(2)conversion during CO_(2)-FT synthesis.K_(2)O also enhances CO adsorption and dissociation,facilitating the formation of methane,used here as a proxy for hydrocarbons formation during CO_(2)-FT synthesis.CO dissociation and O removal via H_(2)O compete as the rate-controlling steps in CO_(2)-FT.
文摘Dear Editor,Posterior reverse encephalopathy syndrome(PRES),manifests as a confusional state/delirium,convulsion,or acute blindness which illustrates in magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)typical bilateral white matter lesions.These clinical and radiological changes are reversible in two to three weeks,usually generated by acute hypertension,preeclampsia,eclampsia,immunosuppression,septicemia,and end-stage renal disease.PRES is commonly diagnosed in patients in their thirties.
文摘The Moroccan automotive industry is experiencing steady growth,positioning itself as the largest manufacturer of passenger cars in Africa.This expansion is leading to a significant increase in waste generation,particularly from end-of-life vehicles(ELVs),which require proper dismantling and disposal to minimize environmental harm.Millions of tonnes of automotive waste are generated annually,necessitating efficient waste management strategies to mitigate environmental and health risks.ELVs contain hazardous substances such as heavy metals,oils,and plastics,which,if not properly managed,can contaminate soil and water resources.To address this challenge,reverse logistics networks play a crucial role in optimizing the recovery of used components,enhancing recycling efficiency,and ensuring the safe disposal of hazardous and non-recyclable waste.This paper introduces a mathematical programming model designed to minimize the total costs associated with ELVs collection,treatment,and transportation while also accounting for revenues from the resale of repaired,directly reusable,or recycled components.The proposed model determines the optimal locations for processing facilities and establishes efficient material flows within the reverse logistics network.By integrating economic and environmental considerations,this model supports the development of a sustainable and cost-effective automotive waste management system,ultimately contributing to a circular economy approach in the industry.

文摘Avian metapneumovirus(aMPV),a paramyxovirus,causes acute respiratory diseases in turkeys and swollen head syndrome in chickens.This study established a reverse genetics system for aMPV subtype B LN16-A strain based on T7 RNA polymerase.Full-length cDNA of the LN16-A strain was constructed by assembling 5 cDNA fragments between the T7 promoter and hepatitis delta virus ribozyme.Transfection of this plasmid,along with the supporting plasmids encoding the N,P,M2-1,and L proteins of LN16-A into BSR-T7/5 cells,resulted in the recovery of aMPV subtype B.To identify an effective insertion site,the enhanced green fluorescent protein(EGFP)gene was inserted into different sites of the LN16-A genome to generate recombinant LN16-As.The results showed that the expression levels of EGFP at the site between the G and L genes of LN16-A were significantly higher than those at the other two sites(between the leader and N genes or replacing the SH gene).To verify the availability of the site between G and L for foreign gene expression,the VP2 gene of very virulent infectious bursal disease virus(vvIBDV)was inserted into this site,and recombinant LN16-A(rLN16A-vvVP2)was successfully rescued.Single immunization of specificpathogen-free chickens with rLN16A-vvVP2 induced high levels of neutralizing antibodies and provided 100%protection against the virulent aMPV subtype B and vvIBDV.Establishing a reverse genetics system here provides an important foundation for understanding aMPV pathogenesis and developing novel vector vaccines.

文摘Current treatments for chronic hepatitis B(CHB)are lifelong,often accompanied by side effects and the risk of drug resistance,highlighting the urgent need for alternative therapies such as therapeutic vaccines.However,challenges such as selecting appropriate antigens and addressing multiple hepatitis B virus(HBV)genotypes hinder the development of these vaccines.One approach to overcoming these challenges is reverse vaccinology(RV)combined with immunoinformatics.RV uses computational methods to identify antigens from pathogen genetic information,including genomic and proteomic data.These methods have helped researchers identify conserved epitopes across bacterial strains or viral species,including multiple HBV genotypes.Computational tools,such as epitope mapping algorithms,molecular docking analysis,molecular dynamics simulations,and immune response simulations,enable key epitope identification,predict vaccine candidates'binding potential to immune cell receptors,and forecast the immune response.Together,these approaches streamline therapeutic vaccine design for CHB,making it faster,more cost-effective,and accurate.This review aims to explore the potential role of RV and immunoinformatics in advancing therapeutic vaccine design for CHB.

文摘Erosion in slurry pumps presents a persistent challenge in industrial applications.This study examines the erosion of the static components of a 150ZJ-C42 centrifugal slurry pump,currently in operation at a beneficiation plant,under varying particle conditions.Utilizing high-precision three-dimensional reverse engineering,the pump’s flow passage geometry was reconstructed to facilitate detailed erosion analysis.Focusing on the front and rear baffles of the pump chamber,as well as the volute,erosion patterns were analyzed for different particle volume concentrations and sizes.The results reveal that the highest erosion damage consistently occurs near the volute tongue,with wear being most severe in regions adjacent to the partition plate near the rear cover.Erosion damage intensity in this area correlates positively with particle diameter.Notably,the average erosion rate in the volute surpasses that of the front and rear chamber liners,reaching a value as high as 6.03×10^(-7)kg·m^(-2)·s^(-1)at a particle concentration of 9%and diameter of 0.1 mm,adversely impacting pump stability.For the pump chamber baffles,increased erosion is observed at a particle diameter of 0.05 mm under constant volume concentration conditions,while higher particle concentrations exacerbate localized erosion.

文摘Reasonable field acquisition geometry can not only guide seismic exploration to obtain sufficient geological information of target body,but also reduce acquisition cost to the maximum.In this study,building on conventional ray-based geometry design methods,we incorporate imaging results as a constraint to optimize the geometry design and evaluate its effectiveness.Firstly,the geological model of the target layer is established based on the geological data of the study area and surface seismic data combined with exploration tasks.Then,the ray-tracing method is employed to simulate and assess the proposed geometry design,verifying whether its parameters meet the exploration requirements.Finally,the imaging effect of the designed geometry on the target layer is tested by the cross-well seismic reverse time migration method.This methodology was applied to design the cross-well seismic acquisition geometry for offshore deviated wells in the X Oilfield.The simulation results demonstrate that the imaging-driven geometry design approach effectively guides field operations,enhances the imaging quality of the target layer,and reduces acquisition costs.

文摘Amplitude dissipation and phase dispersion occur when seismic waves propagate in attenuated anisotropic media,affecting the quality of migration imaging.To compensate and correct for these effects,the fractional Laplacian pure viscoacoustic wave equation capable of producing stable and noise-free wavefields has been proposed and implemented in the Q-compensated reverse time migration(RTM).In addition,the second-order Taylor series expansion is usually adopted in the hybrid finite-difference/pseudo-spectral(HFDPS)strategy to solve spatially variable fractional Laplacian.However,during forward modeling and Q-compensated RTM,this HFDPS strategy requires 11 and 17 fast Fourier transforms(FFTs)per time step,respectively,leading to computational inefficiency.To improve computational efficiency,we introduce two high-efficiency HFDPS numerical modeling strategies based on asymptotic approximation and algebraic methods.Through the two strategies,the number of FFTs decreased from 11 to 6 and 5 per time step during forward modeling,respectively.Numerical examples demonstrate that wavefields simulated using the new numerical modeling strategies are accurate and highly efficient.Finally,these strategies are employed for implementing high-efficiency and stable Q-compensated RTM techniques in tilted transversely isotropic media,reducing the number of FFTs from 17 to 9 and 8 per time step,respectively,significantly improving computational efficiency.Synthetic data examples illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed Q-compensated RTM scheme in compensating amplitude dissipation and correcting phase distortion.
文摘Existing reverse-engineering methods struggle to directly generate editable,parametric CAD models from scanned data.To address this limitation,this paper proposes a reverse-modeling approach that reconstructs parametric CAD models from multi-view RGB-D point clouds.Multi-frame point-cloud registration and fusion are first employed to obtain a complete 3-D point cloud of the target object.A region-growing algorithm that jointly exploits color and geometric information segments the cloud,while RANSAC robustly detects and fits basic geometric primitives.These primitives serve as nodes in a graph whose edge features are inferred by a graph neural network to capture spatial constraints.From the detected primitives and their constraints,a high-accuracy,fully editable parametric CAD model is finally exported.Experiments show an average parameter error of 0.3 mm for key dimensions and an overall geometric reconstruction accuracy of 0.35 mm.The work offers an effective technical route toward automated,intelligent 3-D reverse modeling.

文摘Hydraulic fracturing(HF)has achieved significant commercial success in unconventional oil and gas development.However,it has the potential to induce fault slip.This study investigates the physical mechanisms underlying potential fault slip triggered by HF operations under varying geological and operational constraints.First,we elucidate the relationship between the critical stress state and the elastic modulus of the fault,and refine a formula for the maximum crustal stress difference on critically stressed faults,including stress concentration,friction,and dip.Second,we compare the role of injected fluid in permeable faults with that in impermeable faults,and demonstrate that fault slips can be triggered by a combination of friction decrease and pore pressure increase,even after ceasing injection.Specifically,we reveal that friction decline dominates induced fault slip on high permeable and hydraulically connected fault.Third,based on experimental results and theoretical analysis,we quantify the influence region of stress transfer under different conditions of well location and injection pressure.The results reveal that the elastic modulus of the fault controls the stress concentration on the fault plane.The dip of the fault and the stress concentration jointly determine the maximum crustal stress difference required for failure in critically stressed reverse faults.Thus,our study is more accurate in estimating the proximity of the in-situ stress to the critical state,compared with traditional methods.For critical reverse faults,the risk of induced slip is positively correlated with both injection pressure and friction of fault plane.When the injection pressure(PI)is 100 MPa and the friction(μ)is 0.8,the safe distance from injection point to critically stressed faults along the direction of maximum principal stress and maximum principal stress(dH and dv)should exceed 25 and 18 times as the hydraulic fracture halflength.When PI is 100 MPa andμis 0.6,dH and dv are 23 and 17 times as the hydraulic fracture halflength,respectively.When PI is 60 MPa andμis 0.6,dH and dv are 18 and 13 times as the hydraulic fracture half-length,respectively.The works enhance our understanding of HF-induced fault slip and potentially guide designs of the shale gas well location and trajectory for safer production.

文摘A widely employed energy technology,known as reverse electrodialysis(RED),holds the promise of delivering clean and renewable electricity from water.This technology involves the interaction of two or more bodies of water with varying concentrations of salt ions.The movement of these ions across a membrane generates electricity.However,the efficiency of these systems faces a challenge due to membrane performance degradation over time,often caused by channel blockages.One potential solution to enhance system efficiency is the use of nanofluidic membranes.These specialized membranes offer high ion exchange capacity,abundant ion sources,and customizable channels with varying sizes and properties.Graphene oxide(GO)-based membranes have emerged as particularly promising candidates in this regard,garnering significant attention in recent literature.This work provides a comprehensive overview of the literature surrounding GO membranes and their applications in RED systems.It also highlights recent advancements in the utilization of GO membranes within these systems.Finally,it explores the potential of these membranes to play a pivotal role in electricity generation within RED systems.
