Based on this assumption, to perform the maintenance and repair of aircraft composite structures, the damage of composite structures in a certain type of aircraft were investigated. The time-varying damage distribution model was established and verified based on the damage of a 16-aircraft fleet. The results show that the quantitative proportions of structural damage are 74% for skin delamination, 22% for stringer delamination and 3% for stringer-skin interface debonding. The amount of structural damages increases linearly with service time while the proportion of different damages does not change. As the service time increases, the geometric parameter distribution of damage for the same type of aircraft gradually converges, which can be approximated using the same function. There are certain differences in the proportion and geometric parameter distribution of damages among different components and locations, and the differences do not change over time.展开更多

However, the scaling process of elastic rings introduces complexities in multi-parameter geometric distortions, leading to a diminution in the predictive accuracy of the distorted similitude. To address this challenge, this study formulates a novel set of scaling laws, tailored to account for the intricate geometric distortions associated with elastic rings. The proposed scaling laws are formulated based on the intrinsic deformation characteristics of elastic rings, rather than the traditional systemic governing equations. Numerical and experimental cases are conducted to assess the efficacy and precision of the proposed scaling laws, and the obtained results are compared with those achieved by traditional methods. The outcomes demonstrate that the scaling laws put forth by this study significantly enhance the predictive capabilities for deformations of elastic rings.展开更多

文摘Deployable Composite Thin-Walled Structures(DCTWS)are widely used in space applications due to their ability to compactly fold and self-deploy in orbit,enabled by cutouts.Cutout design is crucial for balancing structural rigidity and flexibility,ensuring material integrity during large deformations,and providing adequate load-bearing capacity and stability once deployed.Most research has focused on optimizing cutout size and shape,while topology optimization offers a broader design space.However,the anisotropic properties of woven composite laminates,complex failure criteria,and multi-performance optimization needs have limited the exploration of topology optimization in this field.This work derives the sensitivities of bending stiffness,critical buckling load,and the failure index of woven composite materials with respect to element density,and formulates both single-objective and multi-objective topology optimization models using a linear weighted aggregation approach.The developed method was integrated with the commercial finite element software ABAQUS via a Python script,allowing efficient application to cutout design in various DCTWS configurations to maximize bending stiffness and critical buckling load under material failure constraints.Optimization of a classical tubular hinge resulted in improvements of 107.7%in bending stiffness and 420.5%in critical buckling load compared to level-set topology optimization results reported in the literature,validating the effectiveness of the approach.To facilitate future research and encourage the broader adoption of topology optimization techniques in DCTWS design,the source code for this work is made publicly available via a Git Hub link:https://github.com/jinhao-ok1/Topo-for-DCTWS.git.

文摘Oxidative magnetization has attracted great attention as an efficient strategy for modulating physiochemical properties of magnetic biochar.In this paper,a K_(2)FeO_(4)-involving hydrothermal oxidative magnetization was explored to regulate multiple micro-structures for manufacture magnetic hydrochar(MHC)for Fenton-like degradation of tetracycline in aqueous solution.Diverse shapes of Fe_(3)O_(4) and nano zero-valent iron(nZVI)were doped with abundant oxygen containing groups and persistent free radicals(PFRs).Multiple catalysis sites including iron species,PFRs,oxygen containing groups,and graphite defects contributed to accelerate the Fenton-like degradation with synergistic effect.Notably,MHC achieved a tetracycline removal rate of 99% within 60 min at 50 mg/L,with a total organic carbon(TOC)removal rate of 35%.Furthermore,after four cycles of reuse,the degradation efficiency slightly decreased to 93%.This study highlights the potential of magnetic hydrochar with multiple catalytic sites in the effective and sustainable degradation of pollutants.

文摘In the present work,the porous Ti particle reinforced Mg-based bulk metallic glass matrix composites(BMGCs)have been successfully fabricated via a novel in-situ dealloying method in metallic melt.A dual reinforcing structure,including large-scale between porous particles and fine-scale inside one particle,was induced to further overcome the strength-plasticity tradeoff.The microstructure and mechanical properties of such dual-scale structure-reinforced BMGCs with various volume fractions and diameters of porous Ti particles were investigated in detail.It is found that with more and finer porous Ti particles,the BMGC showed both high fracture strength(1131.9±39.1 MPa)and good plastic deformability(1.48±0.38%).The characteristic of the reinforcing structure(0.48μm)inside the porous particles was close to the plastic processing zone size of the matrix(0.1~0.2μm),which generated a locally ideal reinforcing structure.Such dual-scale reinforcing structures with more interfaces can effectively promote the multiplication of shear bands at the interfaces.Due to the size effect,the refined submicron matrix between the Ti ligaments inside the porous particles should exhibit homogeneous shearing events.Such delocalization behavior from the dual-scale reinforcing structures should help to enhance the role of the interactions between shear bands,thus improving the yield strength of the composites.Based on the in-situ dealloying method,the dual-scale structure design provides a novel approach to fabricate various BMGCs with both high strength and good plasticity.

文摘Designing materials with both structural load-bearing capacity and broadband electromagnetic(EM)wave absorption properties remains a significant challenge.In this work,SiOC/SiC/SiO_(2)composite with gyroid structures were prepared through digital light processing(DLP)3D printing,polymer-derived ceramics(PDCs),chemical vapor infiltration(CVI),and oxidation technologies.The incorporation of the CVISiC phase effectively increases the dissipation capability,while the synergistic interaction between the gyroid structure and SiO_(2)phase significantly improves impedance matching performance.The SiOC/SiC/SiO_(2)composite achieved a minimum reflection loss(RL min)of-62.2 d B at 4.3 mm,and the effective absorption bandwidth(EAB)covered the X-band,with a thickness range of 4.1 mm-4.65 mm.The CST simulation results explain the broadband and low-frequency absorption characteristics,with an EAB of 8.4 GHz(9.6-18 GHz)and an RL min of-21.5 dB at 5 GHz.The excellent EM wave attenuation performance is associated primarily with polarization loss,conduction loss,the gyroid structure's enhancement of multiple reflections and scattering of EM waves,and the resonance effect between the structural units.The SiOC/SiC/SiO_(2)composite also demonstrated strong mechanical properties,with a maximum compressive failure strength of 31.6 MPa in the height direction.This work opens novel prospects for the development of multifunctional structural wave-absorbing materials suitable for broadband microwave absorption and load-bearing properties.
文摘Six new lanthanide complexes:[Ln(3,4-DEOBA)3(4,4'-DM-2,2'-bipy)]2·2C_(2)H_(5)OH,[Ln=Dy(1),Eu(2),Tb(3),Sm(4),Ho(5),Gd(6);3,4-DEOBA-=3,4-diethoxybenzoate,4,4'-DM-2,2'-bipy=4,4'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine]were successfully synthesized by the volatilization of the solution at room temperature.The crystal structures of six complexes were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction technology.The results showed that the complexes all have a binuclear structure,and the structures contain free ethanol molecules.Moreover,the coordination number of the central metal of each structural unit is eight.Adjacent structural units interact with each other through hydrogen bonds and further expand to form 1D chain-like and 2D planar structures.After conducting a systematic study on the luminescence properties of complexes 1-4,their emission and excitation spectra were obtained.Experimental results indicated that the fluorescence lifetimes of complexes 2 and 3 were 0.807 and 0.845 ms,respectively.The emission spectral data of complexes 1-4 were imported into the CIE chromaticity coordinate system,and their corre sponding luminescent regions cover the yellow light,red light,green light,and orange-red light bands,respectively.Within the temperature range of 299.15-1300 K,the thermal decomposition processes of the six complexes were comprehensively analyzed by using TG-DSC/FTIR/MS technology.The hypothesis of the gradual loss of ligand groups during the decomposition process was verified by detecting the escaped gas,3D infrared spectroscopy,and ion fragment information detected by mass spectrometry.The specific decomposition path is as follows:firstly,free ethanol molecules and neutral ligands are removed,and finally,acidic ligands are released;the final product is the corresponding metal oxide.CCDC:2430420,1;2430422,2;2430419,3;2430424,4;2430421,5;2430423,6.

文摘In this study,a novel polysaccharide GPA-G 2-H was derived from ginseng.Furthermore,the coherent study of its structural characteristics,fermented characteristics in vitro,as well as antioxidant mechanism of fermented product FGPA-G 2-H on Aβ25-35-induced PC 12 cells were explored.The structure of GPA-G 2-H was determined by means of zeta potential analysis,FTIR,HPLC,XRD,GC-MS and NMR.The backbone of GPA-G 2-H was mainly composed of→4)-α-D-Glcp-(1→with branches substituted at O-3.Notably,GPA-G 2-H was degraded by intestinal microbiota in vitro with total sugar content and pH value decreasing,and short-chain fatty acids(SCFAs)increasing.Moreover,GPA-G 2-H significantly promoted the proliferation of Lactobacillus,Muribaculaceae and Weissella,thereby making positive alterations in intestinal microbiota composition.Additionally,FGPA-G 2-H activated the Nrf 2/HO-1 signaling pathway,enhanced HO-1,NQO 1,SOD and GSH-Px,while inhabited Keap 1,MDA and LDH,which alleviated Aβ-induced oxidative stress in PC 12 cells.These provide a solid theoretical basis for the further development of ginseng polysaccharides as functional food and antioxidant drugs.

文摘Conformal truss-like lattice structures face significant manufacturability challenges in additive manufac-turing due to overhang angle limitations.To address this problem,we propose a novel angle-constrained optimization method grounded in the global adjustment of nodal coordinates.First,a build direction is selected to minimize the number of violating struts.Then,an angular-constraint matrix is assembled from strut direction vectors,and analytical sensitivities with respect to nodal coordinates are derived to enable efficient constrained optimization under nonlinear angular inequality constraints.Numerical studies on two complex curved-surface lattices demonstrate that all overhang violations are eliminated while only minor changes are induced in global stiffness and strength.In particular,the maximum displacement of an ergonomic insole varies by only 2.87%after optimization.The results confirm the method’s versatility and engineering robustness,providing a practical approach for additive manufacturing-oriented lattice structure design.

文摘With vigorous developments in nanotechnology,the elaborate regulation of microstructure shows attractive potential in the design of electromagnetic wave absorbers.Herein,a hierarchical porous structure and composite heterogeneous interface are constructed successfully to optimize the electromagnetic loss capacity.The macro–micro-synergistic graphene aerogel formed by the ice template‑assisted 3D printing strategy is cut by silicon carbide nanowires(SiC_(nws))grown in situ,while boron nitride(BN)interfacial structure is introduced on graphene nanoplates.The unique composite structure forces multiple scattering of incident EMWs,ensuring the combined effects of interfacial polarization,conduction networks,and magnetic-dielectric synergy.Therefore,the as-prepared composites present a minimum reflection loss value of−37.8 dB and a wide effective absorption bandwidth(EAB)of 9.2 GHz(from 8.8 to 18.0 GHz)at 2.5 mm.Besides,relying on the intrinsic high-temperature resistance of SiC_(nws) and BN,the EAB also remains above 5.0 GHz after annealing in air environment at 600℃ for 10 h.

文摘Sandwich structures are widely favored for their lightweight,high strength and superior impact mitigation capabilities in blast mitigation and transportation safety applications.Their application in large-scale,high-energy rockfall protection remains limited due to their relatively low volumetric energy absorption efficiency and the complex fabrication processes of key energy-absorbing components.To address these limitations,this study proposes a novel sandwich structure incorporating mild steel tubes as core energy absorbers to efficiently mitigate highenergy rockfall impacts.A finite element model was developed in LS-DYNA to systematically investigate the deformation and energy absorption behaviors.Comprehensive parametric analyses were conducted to quantify the effects of key design variables,including tube wall thickness,tube spacing(number of tubes),and infill materials.The results demonstrate that increasing tube wall thickness significantly enhances ultimate energy absorption,with 12-mm-thick tubes absorbing 2.2 times more energy than 6-mm-thick tubes.Lateral constraints induced by adjacent tubes improve specific energy absorption per unit displacement by approximately 30%-45%.Furthermore,incorporating infill materials considerably enhances energy absorption,with aluminum foam infills achieving an 81%increase compared to empty tubes.Nevertheless,higher energy absorption capacity typically leads to greater peak impact forces,increasing the number of tubes offers a better balance between energy absorption and impact force,optimizing the structural performance.These findings provide valuable theoretical insights and practical guidelines for designing sandwich structures in civil and infrastructure engineering applications for effective rockfall protection.

文摘Low-velocity impact tests are carried out to explore the energy absorption characteristics of bio-inspired lattices,mimicking the architecture of the marine sponge organism Euplectella aspergillum.These sea sponge-inspired lattice structures feature a square-grid 2D lattice with double diagonal bracings and are additively manufactured via digital light processing(DLP).The collapse strength and energy absorption capacity of sea sponge lattice structures are evaluated under various impact conditions and are compared to those of their constituent square-grid and double diagonal lattices.This study demonstrates that sea sponge lattices can achieve an 11-fold increase in energy absorption compared to the square-grid lattice,due to the stabilizing effect of the double diagonal bracings prompting the structure to collapse layer-bylayer under impact.By adjusting the thickness ratio in the sea sponge lattice,up to 76.7%increment in energy absorption is attained.It is also shown that sea-sponge lattices outperform well-established energy-absorbing materials of equal weight,such as hexagonal honeycombs,confirming their significant potential for impact mitigation.Additionally,this research highlights the enhancements in energy absorption achieved by adding a small amount(0.015 phr)of Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotubes(MWCNTs)to the photocurable resin,thus unlocking new possibilities for the design of innovative lightweight structures with multifunctional attributes.

文摘To elucidate the effect of calcite-regulated activated carbon(AC)structure on low-temperature denitrification performance of SCR catalysts,this work prepared a series of Mn-Ce/De-AC-xCaCO_(3)(x is the calcite content in coal)catalysts were prepared by the incipient wetness impregnation method,followed by acid washing to remove calcium-containing minerals.Comprehensive characterization and low-temperature denitrification tests revealed that calcite-induced structural modulation of coal-derived AC significantly enhances catalytic activity.Specifically,NO conversion increased from 88.3%of Mn-Ce/De-AC to 91.7%of Mn-Ce/De-AC-1CaCO_(3)(210℃).The improved SCR denitrification activity results from the enhancement of physicochemical properties including higher Mn^(4+)content and Ce^(4+)/Ce^(3+)ratio,an abundance of chemisorbed oxygen and acidic sites,which could strengthen the SCR reaction pathways(richer NH_(3)activated species and bidentate nitrate active species).Therefore,NO removal is enhanced.
文摘Anchovies are key forage species in coastal and pelagic food webs,playing crucial ecological and commercial roles in marine ecosystems.Encrasicholina punctifer is a commercially and ecologically important species,yet little is known about its osteological development characteristics.Understanding these ontogenetic patterns is essential for explaining phylogenetic relationships within Clupeiformes,informing larval identification in ichthyoplankton surveys,and enhancing aquaculture practices.This study describes the ontogenetic characteristics of the appendicular and median skeletons and fin supports in E.punctifer larvae and juveniles,providing quantitative ontogenetic timelines to address gaps in engraulid developmental biology and contribute to teleost ontogeny research.Larval and juvenile specimens of E.punctifer;size range:3.00-34.56 mm standard length(SL)and notochord length(NL)collected from the Philippine Sea were processed using the standard Alizarin red and Alcian blue clearing-and-staining technique to differentiate ossified and cartilaginous elements.Specimens were examined under a stereo microscope and imaged with an HTC1600ISP digital camera for detailed morphological analysis of skeletal structures.Caudal complex development was evident by 5.55 mm NL,with the initial appearance of cartilaginous hypurals 1–2 and parhypural,followed by Hy3–5 at 6.08 mm NL.Cartilaginous Hy6 was visible by 9.58 mm SL in postflexion larvae.Six hypural bones were present from the postflexion to juvenile stage.Principal fin rays formed via intramembranous ossification at 6.32 mm NL,and segmentation was evident by 10.24 mm SL.Neural arch 1 appeared at 7.38 mm NL,preceding full haemal arch development.Uroneurals 1–2 and ural centra ossified by 9.58 mm SL,with Hy5 detached from U1 at 10.24 mm SL.Preural centra ossified before the arches.Epurals 1 and 2 were evident by 10.24 mm SL.Dorsal fin proximal radials developed anteriorly and distal radials posteriorly.Pectoral fin development initiated with an ossified cleithrum and the coracoscapular cartilage at 5.25 mm NL.By 10.24 mm SL,cartilaginous neural and haemal arches and spines were distinct.Uroneural 1 initially develops as cartilage.The formation of a pleurostyle aligns with clupeoid fish skeletal ontogeny.Dorsal and anal fin development follows a distinctive pattern,with variability in fin support development.Our results reveal accelerated caudal complex formation in E.punctifer and contribute new knowledge on the osteological characteristics of the genus Encrasicholina,and aid in understanding larval and juvenile ontogeny of marine teleosts.

文摘Abuse of chloramphenicol(CAP)could cause serious side effects to human health.Therefore,it is necessary to detect CAP residues in animal sourced food effectively.Here,the superiority(better stability,higher Apt-CAP loading efficiency,and higher CAP binding associated conformational change,etc.)of tetrahedral structure to double-chained structure for developing aptasensor was evaluated.Then,a self-assembled DNA tetrahedral structure-based electrochemical aptasensor targeting CAP was developed.Under the optimized conditions,the aptasensor exhibited high sensitivity toward CAP with a limit of detection(LOD)of 0.0676 ng/m L(linear range 0.19-387.76 ng/m L),and high selectivity against the structural analogs of CAP.Moreover,the recovery rate of CAP from spiked milk samples ranged from 100.57%to 101.69%,and only USD 1.34 is needed for detecting CAP in 1 sample.These results suggested the application potential of this aptasesor for detecting CAP in animal sourced foods.
文摘Four distinct coordination polymers(CPs)were successfully synthesized by altering solvent types and adjusting ligand concentrations,and their crystal structures were investigated.[Co(L)(FDCA)(H_(2)O)_(2)]·0.5H_(2)O(1)was synthesized as a 2D structure using Coas the metal source,methanol‑water(4∶6,V/V)as the solvent,and specific concentrations of 2,5‑furandicarboxylic acid(H_(2)FDCA)and 1,3,5‑triimidazole benzene(L).Adjusting to pure water and lowering the concentration of L yielded the 1D chain structure of[Co(HL)2(H_(2)O)_(2)](FDCA)_(2)·6H_(2)O(2).Using Cu(Ⅱ)as the metal source,methanol/water(9∶1,V/V)as the solvent,and specific concentrations of L and H2FDCA,the 1D chain structure of[Cu(L)(FDCA)(H_(2)O)]·2H_(2)O(3)was synthesized.Upon increasing the concentrations of L and H2FDCA,and switching the solvent to pure water,the 1D chain structure of[Cu(HL)_(2)(H_(2)O)_(2)](FDCA)_(2)·6H_(2)O(4)was obtained.This shows that changing the solvent and ligand concentrations can affect the structural changes of CPs.In addition,the solid‑state photoluminescence of CPs 1‑4 at room temperature was studied,and their morphological changes were observed via scanning electron microscopy.Density functional theory calculations revealed that the negative charge concentrates on the O and N atoms of the ligand,facilitating ligand‑metal ion coordination.CCDC:2403934,1;2403935,2;2403936,3;2403938,4.

文摘The oxygen evolution reaction(OER)suffers from sluggish kinetics,necessitating efficient electrocatalysts to reduce overpotentials in water splitting.Currently recognized OER mechanisms primarily include the adsorbate evolution mechanism(AEM),lattice oxygen mechanism(LOM),and oxide path mechanism(OPM).Compared to AEM,limited by scaling relationships,and LOM,constrained by stability issues,the OPM offers a promising alternative by enabling direct O-O bond formation via dual active sites,thus bypassing^(*)OOH intermediates and lattice O involvement and achieving a balance between activity and durability.However,activating the OPM process requires precise control over the spatial and electronic structure of active sites,making the design of OPM-based catalysts challenging.While previous reviews have focused on homo/heteronuclear diatomic perspectives of OPM-based catalysts,it is urgent to systematically summarize design strategies to provide a rational reference for their development.Herein,a review of design strategies for OPM-based OER catalysts across three scales is comprehensively presented,including in-situ engineering,doping-enabled sites reconstruction,and introducing new sites for nanoparticles,direct synthesis or post-treatments for molecular catalysts,and doping or template strategies for atom pairs or arrays.The unique advantage of atom arrays is also highlighted,and their future research directions and possible strategies are discussed.This review provides a systematic summary and forward-looking perspectives for rationally designing high-performance OPM-based OER catalysts.
文摘The damage distribution of the same type of aircraft in similar service environments should be similar. Based on this assumption, to perform the maintenance and repair of aircraft composite structures, the damage of composite structures in a certain type of aircraft were investigated. The time-varying damage distribution model was established and verified based on the damage of a 16-aircraft fleet. The results show that the quantitative proportions of structural damage are 74% for skin delamination, 22% for stringer delamination and 3% for stringer-skin interface debonding. The amount of structural damages increases linearly with service time while the proportion of different damages does not change. As the service time increases, the geometric parameter distribution of damage for the same type of aircraft gradually converges, which can be approximated using the same function. There are certain differences in the proportion and geometric parameter distribution of damages among different components and locations, and the differences do not change over time.

文摘With the rapid growth of technologies requiring high-power energy storage,achieving long-term cyclic stability under ultra-high current density is a key challenge.Aqueous zinc-ion batteries(AZIBs)are promising candidates due to their intrinsic safety and low cost,but they suffer from severe interfacial instability at rates exceeding 10 mA cm^(-2),which drastically shortens their cycle life.Inspired by theoretical calculations,triglyme(TGDE)additive with strong electron-donating groups into Zn(OTf)_(2) electrolytes effectively disrupts the hydrogen-bond network among free water molecules,while the weak coordination of TGDE with Zn^(2+)promotes the entry of OTf-into the primary Zn^(2+)solvated sheath,thus decreasing the coordination number of water with Zn^(2+).As such,the hydrogen-bond network and the bulk solvated structure are reconstructed with better stability.Moreover,the strong adsorption of TGDE lying on the Zn(002)surface would induce Zn depositions along(002)together with the reduced exposed surface,further effectively inhibiting side reactions.Likewise,TGDE electrolyte induces the formation of such ZnF_(2)-ZnS dual-layer solid electrolyte interface(SEI)with superior chemical stability and ionic conductivity,thereby regulating Zn^(2+)flux with dendrite-free depositions.Based on this electrolyte,Zn‖Zn cells can be stably cycled for 1300 h at a limit of 10 mA cm^(-2) and 10 mAh cm^(-2).The assembled Zn‖V_(2)O_(5) full cells still maintain 99.9%capacity retention after 1000 cycles at 10 A g^(-1).This work provides a feasible approach for designing aqueous electrolytes to reconstruct the hydrogen-bond network and solvated structure,which can be extended to the applications of high-rate and high-temperature scenarios.
文摘Background:Chronic inflammation is closely associated with the most common and socially significant prostate conditions,including benign prostatic hyperplasia(BPH),prostate cancer(PCa),and prostatitis syndromes.NIHcategory IV prostatitis(histologic prostatitis,HP)is defined as asymptomatic chronic inflammation of the prostate.The presence of lymphoid follicles,referred to as tertiary lymphoid structures(TLSs),along with benign lympho-epithelial lesions(BLELs),is among the key histological indicators of immune inflammation and can be assessed relatively easily.This study aimed to quantitatively assess TLSs and BLELs,as well as their relationship with the severity of HP.Methods:We investigated TLSs and BLELs in 110 prostatic specimens,including inflammatory and normal tissues,within the context of common prostate pathologies such as BPH and PCa.HP was graded as low-grade(LG)or high-grade(HG)based on the severity of inflammation.Results:TLSs were observed in 51 out of 110 cases(46.4%),while BLELs were identified in 78 cases(70.44%).Both TLSs and BLELs co-occurred in 45 cases(40.9%).Statistical analysis revealed a significant correlation between the presence of TLSs,BLELs(individually or combined),and HG-HP(p<0.001).Conclusions:This study is the first to quantitatively evaluate the immunopathologic patterns in the inflamed human prostate by analyzing the presence and cooccurrence of TLSs and BLELs.Their formation,likely triggered by antigenic stimuli and external factors,indicates a chronic inflammatory microenvironment.The strong association between TLSs,BLELs,and HG-HP underscores their potential role in HP aggressiveness.These findings suggest that TLSs and BLELs may be crucial contributors to the pathophysiology and morphogenesis of NIH-category IV prostatitis.Furthermore,TLS/BLEL formation may represent a hallmark of tissue autoimmunity,reflecting the immune or autoimmune phase of this prostatitis subtype.

文摘The testing of large structures is limited by high costs and long cycles, making scaling methods an attractive solution. However, the scaling process of elastic rings introduces complexities in multi-parameter geometric distortions, leading to a diminution in the predictive accuracy of the distorted similitude. To address this challenge, this study formulates a novel set of scaling laws, tailored to account for the intricate geometric distortions associated with elastic rings. The proposed scaling laws are formulated based on the intrinsic deformation characteristics of elastic rings, rather than the traditional systemic governing equations. Numerical and experimental cases are conducted to assess the efficacy and precision of the proposed scaling laws, and the obtained results are compared with those achieved by traditional methods. The outcomes demonstrate that the scaling laws put forth by this study significantly enhance the predictive capabilities for deformations of elastic rings.
