Hence, our analysis and description are shifted from casual and indeterminate strings and markers on case basis to determined rules and circumspect dynamic systems, from lexical precepts to knowledge precepts, from the state of memory to rational deduction and rhetorical devices. Further studies indicate that selectional restrictions are intertwined structures, a feature that makes it possible to be one of the bases for lexical selectional restrictions to come into existence. Its related theories are the grarantee for scientific observations of selectional restriction structures.展开更多

Simulation results reveal that during the dual-track SLM process, increasing laser power results in greater thermal accumulation, leading to a molten pool of larger volume and coarser grains. Reducing scanning speed enhances remelting and promotes cellular growth at the top of molten pool, whereas faster scanning speed leads to rougher melt tracks and finer grains. Notably, hatch spacing significantly influences the molten pool dimensions and microstructures, and smaller hatch spacing promotes remelting. Furthermore, the orientations of grains in the second track during zigzag scanning differ markedly from those in the first track. More importantly, compared with those after the first track, both the temperature gradient and cooling rate at the boundaries of remelting molten pool are reduced after the second track scanning, resulting in slower interface velocity and significant change in solidification microstructure. This research provides a theoretical foundation for controlling non-equilibrium microstructure and offering novel insights into the optimization of SLM process parameters of titanium alloys.展开更多

文摘Nanoporous polymers are extensively coated on various substrates to deliver optical,permselective,or other functions.However,it remains desired to fast produce uniform nanoporous polymer coatings on substrates with complex surfaces.Herein,by manipulating the interactions between block copolymers and selective solvents,we prepare repairable nanoporous polymers on arbitrary substrates.This is realized by an extremely simple sequential coating process:sequential coating of block copolymers and their swelling agents on substrate surfaces.The swelling agents are comprised of two solvents that swell the constituent blocks of the copolymers to different degrees,rapidly producing polymer coatings with uniform,interconnected,sub-50 nm pores.This sequential coating process is able to conformally build nanoporous polymers on nonplanar substrates with large lateral sizes and complex surface features,and also to in situ repair defects arising during usages.We further demonstrate that the nanoporous coatings show excellent antireflective and membrane separation performances.This sequential coating process is dictated by polymer–solvent interactions,and is expected to find applications in diverse fields for its simplicity,adaptability,and the capability to produce well-defined nanoporosities.

文摘Selective depression of pyrite remains a major bottleneck in copper flotation,particularly when high-pyrite ores are processed and saline water is used.In such environments,conventional approaches using lime and inert grinding media often fail to discriminate ef-fectively between pyrite and valuable copper minerals due to strong copper activation on pyrite surfaces.This study introduced a novel approach using inorganic radicals generated from peroxymonosulfate(PMS)to selectively oxidize and depress pyrite.Flotation tests with synthetic high-pyrite ore blends showed that PMS significantly reduced pyrite recovery while maintaining or improving chalcopyrite flot-ation.Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid(EDTA)extraction confirmed selective oxidation of pyrite,and electron paramagnetic resonance(EPR)spectroscopy identified hydroxyl(·OH)and sulfate(SO_(4)^(·-))radicals as the dominant reactive species.Iron ions from grinding me-dia and mineral surfaces were identified as key activators of PMS.A major insight was pyrite’s dual role,acting both as a radical scav-enger and an activator,which made it highly reactive and susceptible to radical-induced oxidation.This process converted surface copper-sulfur species into copper hydroxides,effectively suppressing pyrite flotation.While previous studies have applied EPR to detect radicals in simplified activator/precursor systems,this study provides the first direct mechanistic evidence of radical-driven selectivity in flotation by detecting inorganic radicals in a complex flotation slurry,thereby demonstrating their persistence under industrially relevant conditions and establishing a foundation for more effective and targeted flotation strategies.

文摘Coordinate transformation models often fail to account for nonlinear and spatially dependent distortions,leading to significant residual errors in geospatial applications.Here,we propose a residual-based neural correction(RBNC)strategy,in which a neural network learns to model only the systematic distortions left by an initial geometric transformation.By focusing solely on residual patterns,RBNC reduces model complexity and improves performance,particularly in scenarios with sparse or structured control point configurations.We evaluate the method using both simulated datasets(with varying distortion intensities and sampling strategies)and real-world image georeferencing tasks.Compared with direct neural network coordinate converters and classical transformation models,RBNC delivers more accurate and stable results under challenging conditions,while maintaining comparable performance in ideal cases.These findings demonstrate the effectiveness of residual modelling as a light-weight and robust alternative for improving coordinate transformation accuracy.

文摘The effective and environmentally friendly management of oily wastewater,alongside the beneficial conversion of waste biomass,holds paramount importance for environmental conservation,public health,and sustainable societal progress.In this research,an innovative biomass core-shell bioreactor(CGC@SiO_(2) aerogel) with selective adsorption and degradation properties was developed.The reactor's core is composed of coffee cellulose aerogel,offering a porous framework conducive to microbial colonization while safeguarding microorganisms from adverse external factors.The shell integrates hydrophobic silica enriched with polydimethylsiloxane,which alters the material's hydrophilic properties,enabling it to remain afloat on water for up to 100 days.This superhydrophobic layer maintained a contact angle of 150° even after ten consecutive rubbings.Experimental results indicate that the material performs exceptionally well in oil-water separation,as demonstrated by its success in 9 consecutive oil-water separations.It achieved 99 % selective adsorption,91 % removal,and 46.2 % degradation of a 3 wt.% diesel solution under conditions of 37℃,120 r/min,and pH=7.Additionally,tests assessing environmental tolerance revealed the material's robust adaptability and stability across varying pH levels and temperatures.Compared to traditional hydrophobic and lipophilic materials or free-floating microorganisms,CGC@SiO2 aerogel not only efficiently captures oil pollutants but also degrades them into non-hazardous substances.Combining biodegradation with selective adsorption has shown to be an effective approach for treating oily wastewater,offering significant practical application potential.The low-carbon production of CGC@SiO2aerogel aligns with circular economy principles,underscoring its role in sustainable development.

文摘The intractable trade-off between proton conductivity and vanadium ion selectivity,known as the‘transmission paradox’is a critical bottleneck hindering the commercialization of vanadium flow batteries(VFBs).Inspired by the multi-stage,synergistic filtration mechanism of the mammalian glomerular filtration barrier,a novel,biomimetic hierarchical composite membrane has been fabricated via a precise layer-by-layer strategy on a polyethylene(PE)substrate.This membrane integrates a polydopamine(PDA)adhesion layer,a sulfonated Zr-MOF ion-sieving layer,and a synergistic polybenzimidazole(PBI)matrix.Spectroscopic analysis confirmed the formation of a critical bifunctional acid-base interface(-SO_(3)^(−)…H^(+)N-)between the MOF and PBI,which densifies the structure and optimizes ion pathways.The resulting composite membrane exhibits excellent mechanical robustness,superior chemical stability,and exceptional dimensional stability.Most significantly,this architecture successfully decouples the performance trade-off,demonstrating both high proton conductivity(11.11 mS·cm^(-1))and remarkably suppressed vanadium ion permeability(2.4×10^(−8) cm^(2)·min^(-1)).This combination yields an outstanding ion selectivity of 46.29×10^(4) S·min·cm^(-3).When tested in a VFB single cell,the membrane enabled a high energy efficiency of 81.6%at 200 mA·cm^(-2),an ultra-long self-discharge time of 2700 min,and excellent long-term cycling stability.This biomimetic design strategy effectively resolves the core‘transmission paradox’offering a promising pathway for next-generation high-performance flow batteries.

文摘Recovery of palladium from spent catalysts is of great practical significance for the construction of ecological civilization and resource recycling.However,for environmentally friendly adsorption methods,designing specialized capture vacancies with high capacity and precise selectivity for Pd(Ⅱ) ions remains a challenge.Herein,a salicylic acid-modified nanofiber(SANF),exhibiting specific spatial configuration and constructing a capture vacancy by "O-O" of hard bases,was designed and employed for recovering and separating palladium.The adsorption results indicated that the SANF exhibited a fast capture rate(reaching adsorption equilibrium within60 min) and a large capture capacity(about 170 mg/g) for Pd(Ⅱ) ions,and the capture process was exothermic and spontaneous.Additionally,the Lewis basicity of the capture vacancy after tuning better matches the Lewis acidity of Pd(Ⅱ) ions,which achieves a high-selectivity separation of Pd(Ⅱ) ions(selectivity coefficient for K(Ⅰ),Na(Ⅰ) Ca(Ⅱ),Mg(Ⅱ) and Al(Ⅲ) ions are 1505.2,10,536.7,1128.9,2634.2 and 2873.6,respectively).Practical applications showed that SANF was enabled to recover Pd(Ⅱ) ions from spent catalyst leachate and achieved four time adsorption-desorption cycles,possessing some industrial promise.Furthermore,the matching mechanism between the Lewis basicity of the capture vacancy and the Lewis acidity of the Pd(Ⅱ) ions was revealed through series characterization and theoretical calculations.Finally,it is proposed a Lewis basicity tuning strategy founded on a specific spatial structure,provides a new insight for the design and construction of a capture vacancy for Pd(Ⅱ) ions in the future.

文摘This paper aims to develop a unified Bayesian approach for clustered data analysis when observations are subject to missingness at random.The authors consider a general framework in which the parameters of interest are defined through estimating equations,and the probability of missingness follows a general parametric form.The generalized method of moments framework is employed to derive an optimal combination of inverse-probability-weighted estimating equations for the parameters of interest and score equations for propensity score.Using this framework,the authors develop a quasi-Bayesian analysis for clustered samples with missing values.A unified model selection approach is also proposed to compare models characterized by different moment conditions.The authors systematically evaluate the large-sample properties of the proposed quasi-posterior density with both fixed and shrinking priors and establish the selection consistency of the proposed model selection criterion.The proposed results are valid under very mild conditions and offer significant advantages for parameters defined through non-smooth estimating functions.Extensive numerical studies demonstrate that the proposed method performs exceptionally well in finite samples.
