Large cavities in carbonate formations pose serious threat to drilling operations. Logging-whiledrilling （LWD） is currently used to accurately identify and evaluate cavities in reservoirs during drilling. In this study, we use the self-adaptive hp-FEM algorithm simulate and calculate the LWD resistivity responses of fracture-cavity reservoir cavities. Compared with the traditional h-FEM method, the self-adaptive hp-FEM algorithm has the characteristics of the self-adaptive mesh refinement and the calculations exponentially converge to highly accurate solutions. Using numerical simulations, we investigated the effect of the cavity size, distance between cavity and borehole, and transmitted frequency on the LWD resistivity response. Based on the results, a method for recognizing cavities is proposed. This research can provide the theoretical basis for the accurate identification and quantitative evaluation of various carbonate reservoirs with cavities encountered in practice.展开更多

The fuzzy logic controller is able to perform effectively even in situations where the information about the plant is inaccurate and the operating conditions are uncertain. Based on the proportional navigation, the fuzzy logic and the genetic algorithm are combined to develop an evolutionary fuzzy navigation law with self-adapt region for the air-to-air missile guidance. The line of sight (LOS) rate and the closing speed between the missile and the target are inputs of the fuzzy controller. The output of the fuzzy controller is the commanded acceleration. Then a nonlinear function based on the conventional fuzzy logic control is imported to change the region. This nonlinear function can be changed with the input variables. So the dynamic change of the fuzzy variable region is achieved. The guidance law is optimized by the genetic algorithm. Simulation results of air-to-air missile attack using MATLAB show that the method needs less acceleration and shorter flying time, and its realization is simple.[KH*3/4D]展开更多

Some symbols which relevant to the CJWTA are defined firstly. Then, a formulation of jamming fitness is presented. Final y, a model of the CJWTA problem is constructed. In order to solve the CJWTA problem efficiently, a self-adaptive learning based discrete differential evolution （SLDDE） algorithm is proposed by introduc-ing a self-adaptive learning mechanism into the traditional discrete differential evolution algorithm. The SLDDE algorithm steers four candidate solution generation strategies simultaneously in the framework of the self-adaptive learning mechanism. Computa-tional simulations are conducted on ten test instances of CJWTA problem. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed SLDDE algorithm not only can generate better results than only one strategy based discrete differential algorithms, but also outper-forms two algorithms which are proposed recently for the weapon-target assignment problems.展开更多

文摘The intrinsic volume changes(about 300%)of Si anode during the lithiation/delithiation leads to the serious degradation of battery performance despite of theoretical capacity of 3579 mAh g^(-1) of Si.Herein,a three-dimensional(3D)conductive polymer binder with adjustable crosslinking density has been designed by employing citric acid(CA)as a crosslinker between the carboxymethyl cellulose(CMC)and the poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)poly-(styrene-4-sulfonate)(PEDOT:PSS)to stabilize Si anode.By adjusting the crosslinking density,the binder can achieve a balance between rigidity and flexibility to adapt the volume expansion upon lithiation and reversible volume recovery after delithiation of Si.Therefore,Si/CMC-CA-PEDOT:PSS(Si/CCP)electrode demonstrates an excellent performance with high capacities of 2792.3 mAh g^(-1) at 0.5 A g^(-1) and a high area capacity above 2.6 mAh cm^(-2) under Si loading of 1.38 mg cm^(-2).The full cell Si/CCP paired with Li(Ni_(0.8)Co_(0.1)Mn_(0.1))O_(2) cathode discharges a capacity of 199.0 mAh g^(-1) with 84.3%ICE at 0.1 C and the capacity retention of 95.6%after 100 cycles.This work validates the effectiveness of 3D polymer binder and provides new insights to boost the performance of Si anode.

文摘Stochastic optical reconstruction microscopy(STORM),as a typical technique of single-molecule localization microscopy(SMLM),has overcome the diffraction limit by randomly switching fluorophores between fluorescent and dark states,allowing for the precise localization of isolated emission patterns and the super-resolution reconstruction from millions of localized positions of single fluorophores.A critical factor influencing localization precision is the photo-switching behavior of fluorophores,which is affected by the imaging buffer.The imaging buffer typically comprises oxygen scavengers,photo-switching reagents,and refractive index regulators.Oxygen scavengers help prevent photobleaching,photo-switching reagents assist in facilitating the conversion of fluorophores,and refractive index regulators are used to adjust the refractive index of the solution.The synergistic interaction of these components promotes stable blinking of fluorophores,reduces irreversible photobleaching,and thereby ensures high-quality super-resolution imaging.This review provides a comprehensive overview of the essential compositions and functionalities of imaging buffers used in STORM,serving as a valuable resource for researchers seeking to select appropriate imaging buffers for their experiments.

文摘Typical p-n junctions have emerged as a promising strategy for contending with charge carrier recombination in solar conversion.However,the photo-corrosion and unsuitable energy band positions still hinder their practical application for hydrogen production from water in photoelectrochemical systems.Here,an in-situ photo-oxidation method is proposed for achieving self-adapting activation of BiVO_(4)-based photoanodes with surface-encapsulated CuGaS_(2)particles by the ZnO layer.The self-adapting activation demotes the energy band positions of CuGaS_(2),establishing an S-scheme structure with BiVO_(4),resulting in an efficient p-n junction photoanode.The optimal sample exhibits enhanced photocurrent and an onset potential cathodically shifted by~300 mV compared with BiVO_(4),which is attributed to significantly enhanced charge transport and transfer efficiencies.As expected,it attains the highest photocurrent value of 5.87 mA·cm^(-2),aided by a hole scavenger at 1.23 V versus a reversible hydrogen electrode,which significantly surpasses that of BiVO_(4)(4.32 mA·cm^(-2)).

文摘Man-made superheavy elements(SHE)are produced as energetic recoils in complete-fusion reactions and need to be thermalized in a gas-filled chamber for chemical studies.The ever-shorter half-lives and decreasing production rates of the elements beyond Fl(atomic number Z=114)-the heaviest element chemically studied today-require the development of novel techniques for quantitative thermalization and fast extraction efficiency.The Universal high-density gas stopping Cell(UniCell),currently under construction,was proposed to achieve this.Within this work,we propose an Ion Transfer by Gas Flow(ITGF)device,which serves as a UniCell ejector to interface with a gas chromatography detector array for chemical studies.Detailed parameter optimizations,using gas dynamics and Monte Carlo ion-trajectory simulations,promise fast(within a few ms)and highly efficient(up to 100%)ion extraction across a wide mass range.These ions can then be transmitted quantitatively through the ITGF into the high-pressure environment needed for further chemical studies.

文摘The squeezing deformation of surrounding rock is an important factor restricting the safe construction and long-term operation of tunnels when a tunnel passes through soft strata with high ground stress.Under such soft rock geological conditions,the large deformation of the surrounding rock can easily lead to the failure of supporting structures,including shotcrete cracks,spalling,and steel arch distortion.To improve the lining support performance during the large deformation of squeezed surrounding rock,this work selects aluminum foam with densities of 0.25 g/cm3,0.42 g/cm3 and 0.61 g/cm3 as the buffer layer material and carries out uniaxial confined compression tests.Through the evaluation and analysis of energy absorption and the comparison of the yield pressure of aluminum foam with those of other cushioning materials and yield pressure support systems,the strength,deformation and energy absorption of aluminum foam with a density of 0.25 g/cm3 meet the yield pressure performance requirements.The numerical model of the buffer layer yielding support system is then established via the finite element analysis software ABAQUS,and the influence of the buffer layer setting on the lining support is analyzed.Compared with the conventional support scheme,the addition of an aluminum foam buffer layer can reduce the stress and deformation of the primary support and secondary lining.The maximum and minimum principal stresses of the primary support are reduced by 13%and 15%,respectively.The maximum and minimum principal stresses of the secondary lining are reduced by 15%and 12%,respectively,and the displacement deformation of the secondary lining position is reduced by 15%.In summary,the application of aluminum foam buffer layer can reduce the stress and deformation of the primary support and secondary lining,improve the stress safety of the support and reduce the deformation of the support.

文摘The shop scheduling problem with limited buffers has broad applications in real-world production scenarios,so this research direction is of great practical significance.However,there is currently little research on the hybrid flow shop scheduling problem with limited buffers(LBHFSP).This paper deeply investigates the LBHFSP to optimize the goal of the total completion time.To better solve the LBHFSP,a multi-level subpopulation-based particle swarm optimization algorithm(MLPSO)is proposed,which is founded on the attributes of the LBHFSP and the shortcomings of the basic PSO(particle swarm optimization)algorithm.In MLPSO,firstly,considering the impact of the limited buffers on the process of subsequent operations,a specific circular decoding strategy is developed to accommodate the characteristics of limited buffers.Secondly,an initialization strategy based on blocking time is designed to enhance the quality and diversity of the initial population.Afterward,a multi-level subpopulation collaborative search is developed to prevent being trapped in a local optimum and improve the global exploration capability.Additionally,a local search strategy based on the first blocked job is designed to enhance the MLPSO algorithm’s exploitation capability.Lastly,numerous experiments are carried out to test the performance of the proposed MLPSO by comparing it with classical intelligent optimization and popular algorithms in recent years.The results confirm that the proposed MLPSO has an outstanding performance when compared to other algorithms when solving LBHFSP.

文摘Aqueous zinc-ion batteries(AZIBs)have developed rapidly in recent years but still face several challenges,including zinc dendrites growth,hydrogen evolution reaction,passivation and corrosion.The pH of the electrolyte plays a crucial role in these processes,significantly impacting the stability and reversibility of Zn^(2+)deposition.Therefore,pH-buffer tris(hydroxymethyl)amino methane(tris)is chosen as a versatile electrolyte additive to address these issues.Tris can buffer electrolyte pH at Zn/electrolyte interface by protonated/deprotonated nature of amino group,optimize the coordination environment of zinc solvate ions by its strong interaction with zinc ions,and simultaneously create an in-situ stable solid electrolyte interface membrane on the zinc anode surface.These synergistic effects effectively restrain dendrite formation and side reactions,resulting in a highly stable and reversible Zn anode,thereby enhancing the electrochemical performance of AZIBs.The Zn||Zn battery with 0.15 wt%tris additives maintains stable cycling for 1500 h at 4 mA·cm^(−2) and 1120 h at 10 mA·cm^(−2).Furthermore,the Coulombic efficiency reaches~99.2%at 4 mA·cm^(−2)@1 mAh·cm^(−2).The Zn||NVO full batteries also demonstrated a stable specific capacity and exceptional capacity retention.
文摘Photocatalytic hydrogen peroxide(H_(2)O_(2))production offers a sustainable route to convert water and oxygen into H_(2)O_(2)using solar energy.However,achieving long-term stability in photocatalysts remains a critical challenge due to mismatched kinetics between oxygen reduction(ORR)and water oxidation(WOR),which leads to hole accumulation and oxidative degradation.Here,we report a redox-mediated strategy to address this bottleneck by designing a hydroquinone-embedded covalent organic framework(Tz-QH-COF)that enables reversible hole buffering and kinetic balance.The hydroquinone(QH)units act as dynamic hole reservoirs,capturing excess holes during ORR and converting to benzoquinone(Q),which is regenerated to QH via WOR,thereby preventing oxidative decomposition.This reversible QH/Q cycle,directly visualized through in situ attenuated total reflection surface-enhanced infrared absorption spectroscopy,ensures unmatched stability,achieving continuous H_(2)O_(2) production for 528 h(22 d)with an accumulated yield of 18.6 mmol L^(–1)—the highest reported duration for organic photocatalysts.Density functional theory calculations reveal that the QH units exhibit a strong oxygen adsorption energy and favorable two-electron ORR/WOR pathways with low energy barriers.The synergy between experimental and theoretical insights elucidates a redox-mediated charge-balance mechanism,advancing the design of robust photocatalysts for solar-driven H_(2)O_(2) synthesis.

文摘Optimizing the orientation of β-Ga_(2)O_(3) has emerged as an effective strategy to design high-performance β-Ga_(2)O_(3) device,but the orientation growth mechanism and approach have not been revealed yet.Herein,by employing AlN buffer layer,the highly preferred orientation of β-Ga_(2)O_(3)(100)film rather than(-201)film is realized on 4H-SiC substrate at low sputtering power and temperature.Because β-Ga_(2)O_(3)(100)film exhibits a slower growth speed than(-201)film,the former possesses the higher dangling bond density and the lower nucleation energy,and a large conversion barrier exists between these two ori-entations.Moreover,the AlN buffer layer can suppress the surface oxidation of the 4H-SiC substrate and eliminate the strain of β-Ga_(2)O_(3)(100)film,which further reduces the nucleation energy and en-larges the conversion barrier.Meanwhile,the AlN buffer layer can increase the oxygen vacancy formation energy and decrease the oxygen vacancy concentration of β-Ga_(2)O_(3)(100)film.Consequently,the solar-blind photodetector based on the oriented film exhibits the outstanding detectivity of 1.22×10^(12) Jones and photo-to-dark current ratio of 1.11×10^(5),which are the highest among the reported β-Ga_(2)O_(3) solar-blind photodetector on the SiC substrate.Our results offer in-depth insights into the preferred orientation growth mechanism,and provide an effective way to design high-quality β-Ga_(2)O_(3)(100)orientation film and high-performance solar-blind photodetector.

文摘Attempts to remove environmentally harmful materials in mass production industries are always a major issue and draw attention if the substitution guarantees a chance to lower fabrication cost and to improve device performance,as in a wide bandgap Zn_(1-x)Mg_(x)O(ZMO)to replace the CdS buffer in Cu(In_(1-x),Ga_(x))Se_(2)(CIGSe)thin-film solar cell structure.ZMO is one of the candidates for the buffer material in CIGSe thin-film solar cells with a wide and controllable bandgap depending on the Mg content,which can be helpful in attaining a suitable conduction band offset.Hence,compared to the fixed and limited bandgap of a CdS buffer,a ZMO buffer may provide advantages in V_(oc) and J_(sc) based on its controllable and wide bandgap,even with a relatively wider bandgap CIGSe thin-film solar cell.In addition,to solve problems with the defect sites at the ZMO/CIGSe junction interface,a few-nanometer ZnS layer is employed for heterojunction interface passivation,forming a ZMO/ZnS buffer structure by atomic layer deposition(ALD).Finally,a Cd-free all-dry-processed CIGSe solar cell with a wider bandgap(1.25 eV)and ALD-grown buffer structure exhibited the best power conversion efficiency of 19.1%,which exhibited a higher performance than the CdS counterpart.

文摘Most of the carbonate formation are highly heterogeneous with cavities of different sizes, which makes the prediction of cavity-filled reservoir in carbonate rocks difficult. Large cavities in carbonate formations pose serious threat to drilling operations. Logging-whiledrilling （LWD） is currently used to accurately identify and evaluate cavities in reservoirs during drilling. In this study, we use the self-adaptive hp-FEM algorithm simulate and calculate the LWD resistivity responses of fracture-cavity reservoir cavities. Compared with the traditional h-FEM method, the self-adaptive hp-FEM algorithm has the characteristics of the self-adaptive mesh refinement and the calculations exponentially converge to highly accurate solutions. Using numerical simulations, we investigated the effect of the cavity size, distance between cavity and borehole, and transmitted frequency on the LWD resistivity response. Based on the results, a method for recognizing cavities is proposed. This research can provide the theoretical basis for the accurate identification and quantitative evaluation of various carbonate reservoirs with cavities encountered in practice.
文摘Effective guidance is one of the most important tasks to the performance of air-to-air missile. The fuzzy logic controller is able to perform effectively even in situations where the information about the plant is inaccurate and the operating conditions are uncertain. Based on the proportional navigation, the fuzzy logic and the genetic algorithm are combined to develop an evolutionary fuzzy navigation law with self-adapt region for the air-to-air missile guidance. The line of sight (LOS) rate and the closing speed between the missile and the target are inputs of the fuzzy controller. The output of the fuzzy controller is the commanded acceleration. Then a nonlinear function based on the conventional fuzzy logic control is imported to change the region. This nonlinear function can be changed with the input variables. So the dynamic change of the fuzzy variable region is achieved. The guidance law is optimized by the genetic algorithm. Simulation results of air-to-air missile attack using MATLAB show that the method needs less acceleration and shorter flying time, and its realization is simple.[KH*3/4D]

文摘Future manufacturing systems need to cope with frequent changes and disturbances, therefore their control architectures require constant adaptability, agility, stability, self-organization, intelligence, and robustness. Bio-inspired manufacturing system can well satisfy these requirements. For this purpose, by referencing the biological organization structure and the mechanism, a bio-inspired manufacturing cell is presented from a novel view, and then a bio-inspired self-adaptive manufacturing model is established based on the ultra-short feedback mechanism of the neuro-endocrine system. A hio-inspired self-adaptive manufacturing system coordinated model is also established based on the neuro-endocrine-immunity system （NEIS）. Finally, an example based on pheromone communication mechanism indicates that the robustness of the whole manufacturing system is improved by bio-inspired technologies.

文摘Cooperative jamming weapon-target assignment （CJWTA） problem is a key issue in electronic countermeasures （ECM）. Some symbols which relevant to the CJWTA are defined firstly. Then, a formulation of jamming fitness is presented. Final y, a model of the CJWTA problem is constructed. In order to solve the CJWTA problem efficiently, a self-adaptive learning based discrete differential evolution （SLDDE） algorithm is proposed by introduc-ing a self-adaptive learning mechanism into the traditional discrete differential evolution algorithm. The SLDDE algorithm steers four candidate solution generation strategies simultaneously in the framework of the self-adaptive learning mechanism. Computa-tional simulations are conducted on ten test instances of CJWTA problem. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed SLDDE algorithm not only can generate better results than only one strategy based discrete differential algorithms, but also outper-forms two algorithms which are proposed recently for the weapon-target assignment problems.
