文摘As a means of quantitative interpretation,forward calculations of the global lithospheric magnetic field in the Spherical Harmonic(SH)domain have been widely used to reveal geophysical,lithological,and geothermal variations in the lithosphere.Traditional approaches either do not consider the non-axial dipolar terms of the inducing field and its radial variation or do so by means of complicated formulae.Moreover,existing methods treat the magnetic lithosphere either as an infinitesimally thin layer or as a radially uniform spherical shell of constant thickness.Here,we present alternative forward formulae that account for an arbitrarily high maximum degree of the inducing field and for a magnetic lithosphere of variable thickness.Our simulations based on these formulae suggest that the satellite magnetic anomaly field is sensitive to the non-axial dipolar terms of the inducing field but not to its radial variation.Therefore,in forward and inverse calculations of satellite magnetic anomaly data,the non-axial dipolar terms of the inducing field should not be ignored.Furthermore,our results show that the satellite magnetic anomaly field is sensitive to variability in the lateral thickness of the magnetized shell.In particular,we show that for a given vertically integrated susceptibility distribution,underestimating the thickness of the magnetic layer overestimates the induced magnetic field.This discovery bridges the greatest part of the alleged gap between the susceptibility values measured from rock samples and the susceptibility values required to match the observed magnetic field signal.We expect the formulae and conclusions of this study to be a valuable tool for the quantitative interpretation of the Earth's global lithospheric magnetic field,through an inverse or forward modelling approach.

文摘The equivalent source(ES)method in the spherical coordinate system has been widely applied to processing,reduction,field modeling,and geophysical and geological interpretation of satellite magnetic anomaly data.However,the inversion for the ES model suffers from nonuniqueness and instability,which remain unresolved.To mitigate these issues,we introduce both the minimum and flattest models into the model objective function as an alternative regularization approach in the spherical ES method.We first present the methods,then analyze the accuracy of forward calculation and test the proposed ES method in this study by using synthetic data.The experimental results from simulation data indicate that our proposed regularization effectively suppresses the Backus effect and mitigates inversion instability in the low-latitude region.Finally,we apply the proposed method to magnetic anomaly data from China Seismo-Electromagnetic Satellite-1(CSES-1)and Macao Science Satellite-1(MSS-1)magnetic measurements over Africa by constructing an ES model of the large-scale lithospheric magnetic field.Compared with existing global lithospheric magnetic field models,our ES model demonstrates good consistency at high altitudes and predicts more stable fields at low altitudes.Furthermore,we derive the reduction to the pole(RTP)magnetic anomaly fields and the apparent susceptibility contrast distribution based on the ES model.The latter correlates well with the regional tectonic framework in Africa and surroundings.

文摘The CUG_CLMFM3D series comprises high-resolution three-dimensional lithospheric magnetic field models for China and its surroundings.The first version,CUG_CLMFM3Dv1,is a spherical cap harmonic model integrating the WDMAMv2(World Digital Magnetic Anomaly Map version 2)global magnetic anomaly grid and nearly a decade of CHAMP(Challenging Minisatellite Payload for Geophysical Research and Application)satellite vector data.It achieves a~5.7 km resolution but has limitations:the WDMAMv2 grid lacks high-resolution data in the southern Xinjiang and Tibet regions,which leads to missing small-to medium-scale anomalies,and unfiltered CHAMP data introduce low-frequency conflicts with global spherical harmonic models.Above the altitude of 150 km,correlations with global models drop below 0.9.The second version,CUG_CLMFM3Dv2,addresses these issues by incorporating 5-km-resolution aeromagnetic data and rigorously processed satellite data from CHAMP,Swarm,CSES-1(China Seismo-Electromagnetic Satellite 1),and MSS-1(Macao Science Satellite 1).The comparison analysis shows that the CUG_CLMFM3Dv2 captures finer high-frequency details and more stable long-wavelength signals,offering improved magnetic anomaly maps for further geological and geophysical studies.
文摘With the acceleration of life pace and the increase of environmental stress,skin aging has become a major concern.Traditional anti-aging methods,such as laser therapy and injections,are effective but have limitations including side effects,complex procedures,high costs,and long recovery periods.In contrast,a topical cellular reenergizing technology using a combination system of 1%Spherical PDRN(Polydeoxyribonucleotide,a registered product name with the following composition:55%mannitol,30%trehalose,10%sodium DNA,and 5%sodium hyaluronate)and 1%Spherical Collagen(a registered product name with the following composition:55%mannitol,30%trehalose,10%collagen,and 5%sodium hyaluronate)stands out with its natural,convenient,non-invasive,and long-lasting advantages.It fundamentally addresses skin aging and provides consumers with a safer,more comfortable,and comprehensive anti-aging experience.This study prepared a combination system of Spherical PDRN and Collagen via a matrix incorporation method.It investigated mitochondrial function and morphology changes in H_(2)O_(2)-stimulated fibroblasts by measuring mitochondrial membrane potential(a key function indicator),ATP content(reflecting energy production),and mitochondrial morphology(related to cell state and stress response).These analyses provided insights into fibroblast energy metabolism and cellular mechanisms.Additionally,a precise method assessed UVA-induced NAD^(+) concentration changes in fibroblasts,reflecting metabolic and antioxidant states under stress.In H_(2)O_(2)-stimulated fibroblasts,the combination system of Spherical PDRN and Spherical Collagen at a concentration of 2.5%significantly increased the average value of mitochondrial membrane potential(polymer/monomer ratio)by 448.28%,and the content of ATP by 108.06%.The mitochondrial morphology in cells appeared as elongated rods,with normal fusion and fission occurring.In UVA-irradiated fibroblasts,the combination system of Spherical PDRN and Spherical Collagen at a concentration of 2.5%significantly increased the concentration of NAD^(+) per unit protein by 35.93%.This study investigated how the combination system of Spherical PDRN and Collagen affects mitochondrial function in fibroblasts.It was found that this system significantly boosts mitochondrial membrane potential,implying a marked rise in mitochondrial activity and energy conversion efficiency.This suggests optimized respiratory chain function and energy metabolism,which are vital for normal cellular functions and stress responses.Moreover,the system significantly raises intracellular ATP levels,directly reflecting enhanced mitochondrial energy production.This not only promotes cellular energy metabolism but also boosts cell vitality and stress resistance.Additionally,the system improves mitochondrial morphology,which is crucial for maintaining mitochondrial dynamics and function.

文摘Spherical harmonic analysis(SHA)and synthesis(SHS)are widely used by researchers in various fields.Both numerical integration and least-squares methods can be employed for analysis and synthesis.However,these approaches,when calculated via summation,are computationally intensive.Although the Fast Fourier Transform(FFT)algorithm is efficient,it is traditionally limited to processing global grid points starting from zero longitude.In this paper,we derive an improved FFT algorithm for spherical harmonic analysis and synthesis.The proposed algorithm eliminates the need for grid points to start at zero longitude,thereby expanding the applicability of FFT-based methods.Numerical experiments demonstrate that the new algorithm retains the computational efficiency of conventional FFT while achieving accuracy comparable to the summation method.Consequently,it enables direct harmonic coefficient calculation from global grid data without requiring interpolation to align with zero longitude.Additionally,the algrithm can generate grid points with equi-angular spacing using the improved FFT algorithm,starting from non-zero longitudes.To address the loss of orthogonality in latitude due to discrete spherical grids,a quadrature weight factor-dependent on grid type(e.g.,regular or Gauss grid)-is incorporated,as summarized in this study.

文摘To analyze the differences in the transport and distribution of different types of proppants and to address issues such as the short effective support of proppant and poor placement in hydraulically intersecting fractures,this study considered the combined impact of geological-engineering factors on conductivity.Using reservoir production parameters and the discrete elementmethod,multispherical proppants were constructed.Additionally,a 3D fracture model,based on the specified conditions of the L block,employed coupled(Computational Fluid Dynamics)CFD-DEM(Discrete ElementMethod)for joint simulations to quantitatively analyze the transport and placement patterns of multispherical proppants in intersecting fractures.Results indicate that turbulent kinetic energy is an intrinsic factor affecting proppant transport.Moreover,the efficiency of placement and migration distance of low-sphericity quartz sand constructed by the DEM in the main fracture are significantly reduced compared to spherical ceramic proppants,with a 27.7%decrease in the volume fraction of the fracture surface,subsequently affecting the placement concentration and damaging fracture conductivity.Compared to small-angle fractures,controlling artificial and natural fractures to expand at angles of 45°to 60°increases the effective support length by approximately 20.6%.During hydraulic fracturing of gas wells,ensuring the fracture support area and post-closure conductivity can be achieved by controlling the sphericity of proppants and adjusting the perforation direction to control the direction of artificial fractures.
文摘Porous spherical MnCo_(2)S_(4) was synthesized by a simple solvothermal method.Thanks to the well-designedbimetallic composition and the unique porous spherical structure,the MnCo_(2)S_(4) electrode exhibited an exceptionalspecific capacitance of 190.8 mAh·g^(-1)at 1 A·g^(-1),greatly higher than the corresponding monometallic sulfides MnS(31.7 mAh·g^(-1))and Co_(3)S_(4)(86.7 mAh·g^(-1)).Impressively,the as-assembled MnCo_(2)S_(4)||porous carbon(PC)hybridsupercapacitor(HSC),showed an outstanding energy density of 76.88 Wh·kg^(-1)at a power density of 374.5 W·kg^(-1),remarkable cyclic performance with a capacity retention of 86.8% after 10000 charge-discharge cycles at 5 A·g^(-1),and excellent Coulombic efficiency of 99.7%.
文摘In popular Baba-Engle-Kraft-Kroner(BEKK)and dynamic conditional correlation(DCC)multivariate generalized autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity models,the large number of parameters and the requirement of positive definiteness of the covariance and correlation matrices pose some difficulties during the estimation process.To avoid these issues,we propose two modifications to the BEKK and DCC models that employ two spherical parameterizations applied to the Cholesky decompositions of the covariance and correlation matrices.In their full specifications,the introduced Cholesky-BEKK and Cholesky-DCC models allow for a reduction in the number of parameters compared with their traditional counterparts.Moreover,the application of spherical transformation does not require the imposition of inequality constraints on the parameters during the estimation.An application to two crude oils,WTI and Brent,and the main exchange rate prices demonstrates that the Cholesky-BEKK and Cholesky-DCC models can capture the dynamics of covariances and correlations.In addition,the Kupiec test on different portfolio compositions confirms the satisfactory performance of the proposed models.

文摘EHL-2 is an ENN second-generation device aimed at studying proton-boron(p-11B)fusion reactions in a spherical torus.The design parameters are Ti0~30 keV,Ti/Te>2,n_(e0)~1×10^(20)m^(-3),I_(p)~3 MA,B_(t)~3 T,andτ_(E)~0.5 s.High ion temperature is one of the standard operation scenarios of EHL-2,aiming to reduce bremsstrahlung radiation while enhancing plasma parameters by elevating the ion to electron temperature ratio.In order to achieve high ion temperature,neutral beam injection is considered the primary heating method during the flat-top phase.The neutral beam system for EHL-2 comprises 3-5 beams with energy/power ranging from 60 keV/4 MW,80-100 keV/10 MW,to 200 keV/3 MW.This work conducts predictive analysis on core transport during the flat-top phase of EHL-2’s high-ion-temperature scenario utilizing ASTRA.The study delineates the potential operating range of core temperature and other parameters given the designed heating capacity.Specifically,the study presents predictive simulations based on CDBM,GLF23,Bohm-gyro-Bohm,and IFSPPPL transport models,evaluating the steady-state power balance,energy confinement time,and impact of various parameters such as plasma density and NBI power on core ion temperature.The simulations demonstrate that the design parameters of the EHL-2 high-Ti scenario,although sensitive to varying transport models,are hopefully attainable as long as adequate ion heating and controlled ion transport levels are ensured.
文摘Significant progress has been made in magnetic and inertial confinement fusion(MCF and ICF)energy development since the achievement of world record parameters on the T3 tokamak in 1968.In MCF,the triple product nτT has been elevated from 5×10^(17)m^(-3)·s·keV to 1×10^(21)m^(-3)·s·keV.At the same time,Q=Pfusion/Pheating,has increased from 1×10^(-9)to 0.67,with expectations to exceed 10 in the ITER experiment.In ICF,a Q value of approximately 2.4 was attained with a fusion energy output of around 5.2 MJ.
文摘Global security threats have motivated organizations to adopt robust and reliable security systems to ensure the safety of individuals and assets.Biometric authentication systems offer a strong solution.However,choosing the best security system requires a structured decision-making framework,especially in complex scenarios involving multiple criteria.To address this problem,we develop a novel quantum spherical fuzzy technique for order preference by similarity to ideal solution(QSF-TOPSIS)methodology,integrating quantum mechanics principles and fuzzy theory.The proposed approach enhances decision-making accuracy,handles uncertainty,and incorporates criteria relationships.Criteria weights are determined using spherical fuzzy sets,and alternatives are ranked through the QSFTOPSIS framework.This comprehensive multi-criteria decision-making(MCDM)approach is applied to identify the optimal gate security system for an organization,considering critical factors such as accuracy,cost,and reliability.Additionally,the study compares the proposed approach with other established MCDM methods.The results confirm the alignment of rankings across these methods,demonstrating the robustness and reliability of the QSF-TOPSIS framework.The study identifies the infrared recognition and identification system(IRIS)as the most effective,with a score value of 0.5280 and optimal security system among the evaluated alternatives.This research contributes to the growing literature on quantum-enhanced decision-making models and offers a practical framework for solving complex,real-world problems involving uncertainty and ambiguity.
文摘Activated carbon(AC)is considered to be an excellent adsorbent due to its high specific surface area and various functional groups.AC powders are available in sizes ranging from 44 to 150 μm.Its particle size prevent its separation from the soil.Therefore,when AC powder is applied to Cd-contaminated soil,it only reduces the bioavailability of Cd and Cd is not necessarily removed but semi-immobilized.Recovery of adsorbent materials from the soil is therefore a preferred soil remediation method.In order to achieve the separation of Cd from soil and the recovery and reuse of AC,a batch of phenolic resin(PR)-carboxymethyl cellulose(CMC)-activated carbon(AC)composite(PCC-800)with uniform particle diameter(diameter 0.8 mm)and high compressive strength was prepared.PCC-800 composites were made of PR/CMC/AC calcined at 800℃ in a certain ratio.The Barrett-Joyner-Halender results showed that the PCC-800 spheres own a mesoporous structure.The compressive strength of PCC-800 pellets was 20.6 N.After first adsorption cycle,total Cd in the soil decreased by 52.18%while bioavailable Cd decreased to 25.68%of the original soil.After three cycles,the recovery rates of PCC-800 were 90.37%and the adsorption regeneration was 72.73%.The PCC-800 immobilized Cd by adsorption,precipitation and complexation reaction.This study demonstrates the potential for developing adsorbents that are both easily separable from soil and highly effective in adsorption.

文摘Bubbles within an elastic shell,which undergo ultrasound-driven oscillation to treat tumors and soft tissues,are frequently treated as viscoelastic media.Therefore,studying the dynamic behavior of bubbles wrapped in a viscoelastic medium while considering an elastic shell can provide theoretical support for ultrasound biotherapy.Bubbles are always in the form of clusters.Therefore,a model of spherical bubble clusters in a liquid cavity wrapped by an elastic shell was constructed,the coupled oscillation equations of bubbles were obtained by taking into account the dynamic effects of the elastic shell and the viscoelastic media outside the cavity,and the oscillation behaviors of the bubbles were analyzed.Acoustic waves at 1.5 MHz could cause bubbles with a radius of 1μm to resonate.Increasing the number of bubbles increased the suppressing effect of bubble oscillation caused by bubble interaction.The bubble cluster oscillation caused the elastic shell to oscillate and be stressed,and the stress trend was the inverse of the bubble oscillation trend with maximal tensile and compressive stresses.Bubbles with an equilibrium radius of 2μm exhibited the lowest inertial cavitation threshold,making inertial cavitation more likely under high-frequency acoustic excitation.The inertial cavitation threshold of bubbles was heavily influenced by the acoustic wave frequency,bubble number density,and bubble cluster radius.The nonspherical oscillation stability of bubbles was primarily affected by the driving acoustic pressure amplitude and frequency,bubble initial radius,bubble number density,and bubble cluster radius.The acoustic frequency and amplitude exhibited a synergistic effect,with a minimum unstable driving acoustic pressure threshold of approximately 0.13 MPa.The initial radius within the elastic shell affected the minimum unstable driving acoustic pressure threshold.

文摘The EHL-2 spherical torus is designed to demonstrate proton-boron(p-11B)fusion within a compact spherical tokamak.Its planned heating system includes a negative ion-based neutral beam injection(N-NBI),two positive ion-based NBI systems(P-NBI),electron cyclotron resonance heating(ECRH),ion cyclotron resonance heating(ICRH),and high harmonic fast wave(HHFW),with a total power output of 31 MW.According to scaling law estimates,the device is capable of achieving H-mode operation.The plasma density,,n_(e,min)at the minimum L-H power threshold,P_(lh),is estimated to be 4.4×10^(19)m^(-3).The pedestal parameters were calculated using the REPED model.Assuming B as the primary impurity ion,the predicted pedestal width and height are lower compared to the typical case with carbon impurities.The pedestal collisionality for EHL-2 is estimated to range between 0.06 and 0.17,indicating the potential for significant energy loss due to edge localized modes(ELMs).The heat flux on the divertor plate has been calculated using the JOREK code.The peak heat fluxes during ELM bursts are approximately 31.0 MW/m^(2)at the lower inboard target and 39.5 MW/m^(2)at the lower outboard target.A preliminary design of the resonant magnetic perturbation(RMP)coils has been completed to both control type-I ELMs and correct error fields.The system comprises 16 coils arranged into 24 pairs.In ELM control mode,a 14/2 component is generated at 1.7 G/kAt,with a current of 4.9 kA required to achieveσChirikow=1 at the resonant surface,where the normalized poloidal magnetic flux is 0.85.In error field(EF)modulation mode,2/1 and 3/1 components are generated at 3.5 G/kAt and 2.8 G/kAt,respectively.

文摘ENN He Long-2(EHL-2)is the next-generation large mega-Ampere(MA)spherical torus(ST)proposed and funded by the ENN company.The design parameters are:Ti0>30 keV,n_(e0)~1×10^(20)m^(-3),Ip~3 MA,Bt~3 T.One of the biggest challenges of EHL-2 is how to achieve several MA current flat-tops with limited voltage-seconds(Vs)of the center solenoid(CS)coils.In order to minimize the consumption of Vs,a fully non-inductive start-up by electron cyclotron resonance heating(ECRH)will be applied in EHL-2.The ramp-up phase will be accomplished with the synergetic mode between the CS and non-inductive methods.The strategy of non-inductive start-up and ramp-up with synergetic mode has been verified on EXL-50U’s experiments.Based on this strategy,numerical simulations indicate the feasibility of EHL-2 achieving 3 MA plasma current.A high-performance steady-state scenario with Ip~1.5 MA is also designed.In this scenario,the bootstrap current fraction fBS>70%,the safety factor q at the magnetic axis q0>2,the minimum safety factor qmin>1,the poloidal betaβp>3 and normalized betaβN>2.3.Each design iteration integrates the validation of physical models with the constraints of engineering implementation,gradually optimizing the performance of the heating and current drive(H&CD)systems.Numerical simulation results for general auxiliary H&CD systems such as neutral beam injection(NBI),electron cyclotron(EC)wave,ion cyclotron wave(ICW),and lower hybrid wave(LHW)are presented.These simulation results ensure that the 31 MW H&CD systems comprehensively cover all scenarios while maintaining engineering feasibility.

文摘A dimensionless load-displacement model based on the energy-density equivalence principle is proposed to obtain the stress-strain relationships of metallic materials under monotonic indentations with various diameters of spherical indenters.Finite element simulations are carried out to verify the constitutive relations from the new model,involving indentations made with various spherical indenters.For each indenter,some quasi-static spherical indentation tests are conducted on the materials with 40 preset constitutive relationships.The results indicate that the stress-strain curves predicted by the model align with the preset curves under 200 loading conditions.Moreover,the goodness-of-fit between the predicted stress-strain curves and the preset curves exceeds0.96 for all indenters and materials.In the end,the indentation tests are conducted by the spherical indenters with the diameters of 1.587 mm for fifteen metallic materials and1 mm for eight metallic materials.The results show that the stress-strain curves obtained by the spherical indentation based on the new model closely match those obtained from the uniaxial tensile tests.The relative errors for both the proof strength at 0.2%plastic extension and the tensile strength are below 5%.

文摘This study proposes a numerically efficient technique for computing the far-field scattered by a spherical target placed near the seabed.The bottom is supposed to be a homogeneous liquid attenuating half-space.The transmitter and receiver are situated at different points of a homogeneous water half-space.The distances between the transmitter,receiver,and object of interest are assumed to be much larger than the acoustic wavelength in water.The scattered far-field is ascertained using Hackman and Sammelmann’s general approach.The arising scattering coefficients of a sphere are assessed using the steepest descent approach.The branch cut contribution is also considered.The obtained formulas for the form-function can be used for acoustically rigid or soft scatterers,as well as elastic targets or spherical elastic shells.Numerical simulations are conducted for an acoustically rigid sphere.Asymptotic expressions for the scattering coefficients allow a decrease in the number of summands in the formula for the target strength and a significant reduction in computational time.
