文摘The F_(1)-ATPase and V_(1)-ATPase are rotary biomotors.Alignment of their amino acid sequences,which originate from bovine heart mitochondria(1BMF)and Enterococcus hirae(3VR6),respectively,demonstrates that the segment forming the ATP catalytic pocket is highly conserved.Single-molecule experiments,however,have revealed subtle differences in efficiency between the F_(1) and V_(1) motors.Here,we perform both atomistic and coarse-grained molecular dynamics simulations to investigate the mechanochemical coupling and coordination in F_(1) and V_(1) ATPase.Our results show that the correlation between conformational changes in F_(1) is stronger than that in V_(1),indicating that the mechanochemical coupling in F_(1) is tighter than in V_(1).Moreover,the unidirectional rotation of F_(1) is more processive than that of V_(1),which accounts for the higher efficiency observed in F_(1) and explains the occasional backward steps detected in single-molecule experiments on V_(1).

文摘Evaluating Unmanned Aerial Vehicle(UAV)systems within a System-of-Systems(SoS)environment helps clarify their contribution to the overall combat capability and supports effectiveness-oriented system optimization.When assessing decision systems in such an environment,cross-level modeling and simulation are required,which often face a trade-off between low modeling cost and high simulation accuracy,while the credibility of results remains challenging to ensure.To address these issues,this study proposes a hybrid-granularity Hardware-In-the-Loop(HIL)SoS environment construction method based on Graphical Evaluation and Review Technique(GERT).The method employs GERT to analyze the relationships between simulation systems,the System Under Test(SUT),and mission outcomes,thereby determining the required model precision for different systems.A dynamic resource allocation algorithm is applied to adjust model granularity on demand,ensuring high-fidelity simulation under constrained total cost.Additionally,GERT estimates the computational frequency and communication bandwidth requirements of the SUT,guiding hardware selection to enhance simulation credibility.A UAV maritime combat case study was conducted for validation.The results demonstrate that,compared to the flat modeling approach,the hybrid-granularity scenario based on GERT analysis achieves higher simulation accuracy with lower overall model complexity.The coefficient of variation in evaluation results significantly decreases in HIL simulations compared to virtual simulations,confirming improved credibility.Under the hybrid-granularity HIL scenario,the decision system was evaluated from an effectiveness perspective,identifying the most sensitive performance parameter.Subsequent targeted optimization led to an 11.90%improvement in effectiveness,validating the method's practical utility.
文摘In federated learning,backdoor attacks have become an important research topic with their wide application in processing sensitive datasets.Since federated learning detects or modifies local models through defense mechanisms during aggregation,it is difficult to conduct effective backdoor attacks.In addition,existing backdoor attack methods are faced with challenges,such as low backdoor accuracy,poor ability to evade anomaly detection,and unstable model training.To address these challenges,a method called adaptive simulation backdoor attack(ASBA)is proposed.Specifically,ASBA improves the stability of model training by manipulating the local training process and using an adaptive mechanism,the ability of the malicious model to evade anomaly detection by combing large simulation training and clipping,and the backdoor accuracy by introducing a stimulus model to amplify the impact of the backdoor in the global model.Extensive comparative experiments under five advanced defense scenarios show that ASBA can effectively evade anomaly detection and achieve high backdoor accuracy in the global model.Furthermore,it exhibits excellent stability and effectiveness after multiple rounds of attacks,outperforming state-of-the-art backdoor attack methods.
文摘Because of the developed surface of the Triply PeriodicMinimumSurface(TPMS)structures,polylactide(PLA)products with a TPMS structure are thought to be promising bio soluble implants with the potential for targeted drug delivery.For implants,mechanical properties are key performance characteristics,so understanding the deformation and failure mechanisms is essential for selecting the appropriate implant structure.The deformation and fracture processes in PLA samples with different interior architectures have been studied through computer simulation and experimental research.Two TPMS topologies,the Schwarz Diamond and Gyroid architectures,were used for the sample construction by 3D printing.ANSYS software was utilized to simulate compressive deformation.It was found that under the same load,the vonMises stresses in the Gyroid structure are higher than those in the Schwartz Diamond structure,which was associated with the different orientations of the cells in the studied structures in relation to the direction of the loading axis.The deformation process occurs in the local regions of the studied TPMS structures.Maximum von Mises stresses were observed in the vertical parts of the structures oriented along the load direction.It was found that,unlike the Gyroid,the Schwartz Diamond structure contains a frame that forms unique stiffening ribs,which ensures the redistribution of the load under the vertical loading direction.An analysis of the mechanical characteristics of PLA samples with the Schwartz Diamond and Gyroid structures produced by the Fused Deposition Modeling(FDM)method was correlated with computer simulation.The Schwarz Diamond-type structure was shown to have a higher absorption energy than the Gyroid one.A study of the fracture in PLA samples with various cell sizes revealed a particular feature related to the samples’periodic surface topology and the 3D printing process.Scanning electron microscopic(SEM)studies of the samples deformed by compression showed thatwith an increase in the density of the samples,the failure mechanism changes from ductile to quasi-brittle due to the complex participation of both cell deformation and fiber deformation.

文摘In recent years,three-dimensional reconstruction technologies that employ multiple cameras have continued to evolve significantly,enabling remote collaboration among users in extended Reality(XR)environments.In addition,methods for deploying multiple cameras for motion capture of users(e.g.,performers)are widely used in computer graphics.As the need to minimize and optimize the number of cameras grows to reduce costs,various technologies and research approaches focused on Optimal Camera Placement(OCP)are continually being proposed.However,as most existing studies assume homogeneous camera setups,there is a growing demand for studies on heterogeneous camera setups.For instance,technical demands keep emerging in scenarios with minimal camera configurations,especially regarding cost factors,the physical placement of cameras given the spatial structure,and image capture strategies for heterogeneous cameras,such as high-resolution RGB cameras and depth cameras.In this study,we propose a pre-visualization and simulation method for the optimal placement of heterogeneous cameras in XR environments,accounting for both the specifications of heterogeneous cameras(e.g.,field of view)and the physical configuration(e.g.,wall configuration)in real-world spaces.The proposed method performs a visibility analysis of cameras by considering each camera’s field-of-view volume,resolution,and unique characteristics,along with physicalspace constraints.This approach enables the optimal position and rotation of each camera to be recommended,along with the minimum number of cameras required.In the results of our study conducted in heterogeneous camera combinations,the proposed method achieved 81.7%~82.7%coverage of the target visual information using only 2~3 cameras.In contrast,single(or homogeneous)-typed cameras were required to use 11 cameras for 81.6%coverage.Accordingly,we found that camera deployment resources can be reduced with the proposed approaches.

文摘The effect of real-time high temperature and thermal treatment on the mechanical characteristics and crack evolution of granite with different grain sizes(i.e.,0.5 mm,0.7 mm and 1.0 mm)is investigated by numerical simulation employing a grain-based model,and the impact of initial cracks on thermal-induced strengthening is also examined by integrating random cracks within the model before tests.The results revealed that thermal stress,induced by the mismatch in thermal expansion coefficient between various minerals,is the primary distinction between rock specimens in real-time high temperature and thermal treatment.With increasing temperature,the thermal stress gradually accumulates in quartz minerals under real-time high temperature but releases after thermal treatment.The high local contact force significantly affects the peak stress and crack evolution.Uniaxial compression simulation results demonstrate that progressive accumulation of thermal stress induces degradation in macroscopic peak strength and increase of microcrack density.The grain size controls the ratio of intergranular contacts to intragranular contacts,and leads to an increase in strong contact number in the intragrain and a decrease in strong contact number in the intergrain.The strengthening of uniaxial compression strength in the experiment can be well simulated by controlling the number of pre-existing initial cracks in the numerical model.Our conclusions are beneficial to a better understanding of the underlying mechanisms of thermal damage and thermal strengthening of granite for deep geological engineering.

文摘Centrifugal casting of ductile iron pipe is a high-temperature,semi-continuous production process.However,conducting laboratory research on the solidification process of centrifugal casting of ductile iron pipe presents significant challenges.In this study,a novel research method was introduced for investigating the solidification process of ductile iron pipe,namely thermal simulation of ductile iron pipe.Comparative research was conducted on the microstructure and properties of the thermal simulation sample and the ductile iron pipe.The findings indicate that the thermal simulation sample and ductile iron pipe exhibit good heat transfer similarity and microstructure similarity.The difference of cooling rate between thermal simulation sample and ductile pipe is less than 0.24℃·s^(-1),and the difference of microstructure content of free cementite,ferrite,and pearlite is less than 5%.The tensile strength of annealed ductile iron pipe is 466 MPa,with an elongation of 16.1%and a Brinell hardness of 156.5 HBW.In comparison,the tensile strength of annealed thermal simulation sample is 482.0 MPa,with an elongation of 15.5%and a Brinell hardness of 159.0 HBW.These results suggest that the thermal simulation experimental research method is both scientific and feasible,offering an objective,reliable,and cost-effective approach to laboratory research on ductile iron pipe.
文摘Ice crystal icing is an important cause of accidents in aircraft engines.Ice formation in aircraft engines can cause internal blades to freeze,affecting the quality of the air flow field and blocking the flow path.On the other hand,the entry of ice crystal particles into the combustion chamber can cause a decrease in temperature or even flameout,leading to engine surge or shutdown.Therefore,it is necessary to conduct multiphase flow tests on ice crystals for aircraft components such as aircraft engines.Conducting ice crystal multiphase flow tests on aircraft is an effective research method,but it requires the construction of an ice crystal multiphase flow test platform that meets relevant technical requirements.The paper focuses on the relevant experimental requirements and combines wind tunnel test structures to conduct multiphase flow numerical simulations on various forms of jet pipelines,obtaining particle motion distribution results.After comparison,the optimal form of jet structure is obtained,providing the best selection scheme for the design of relevant wind tunnel structures.

文摘This study proposes a new post-tensioned precast bridge column(PT-PBC)with a socket connection.Compared to conventional PBCs connected by PT tendons,the combination of the PT tendons with the socket connection can avoid tensioning the PT tendons on site,which further accelerates construction speed while improving construction quality and safety.In addition,compared to conventional PBCs with a socket connection,a rocking interface can avoid the formation of a plastic hinge in a column,which greatly alleviates seismic damage to that area.One specimen for quasi-static testing is used to validate the feasibility of this connection type.Subsequently,finite element models(FEM)are established to systematically predict the responses of the proposed columns under lateral cyclic loading.The accuracy of the FEM is verified through quasistatic testing.Next,the influences of the key design parameters of the PT-PBC,including the area ratio and prestress level of the PT tendons,the area ratio of energy dissipation(ED)steel rebars,and the total axial compression ratio on the seismic performances of PT-PBC are systematically investigated.The use of shape memory alloy(SMA)rods as energy dissipation devices and their performances also are investigated.The results show that increasing the area ratio and prestress level of PT tendons has an overall positive impact on the self-centering capacity of the column.The prestress level of PT tendons should be kept between 35%and 55%,depending on different conditions.The total compression axial ratio of the columns should be maintained between 0.3 and 0.4.Both ED steel rebars and SMA rods can boost the column’s energy dissipation capacity,while SMA rods can reduce residual deformation due to their inherent mechanical properties.
