We then discuss the application directions of bio-inspired soft robots and the latest developments in each direction. Finally, after an in-depth review of various soft bio-inspired robot driving technologies in recent years, we summarize the issues and challenges encountered in the advancement of soft robot actuation technology.展开更多

文摘With the rapid growth of the global population and the increasing demand for healthier diets,improving the nutrient utilization efficiency of staple food crops has become a critical scientific and industrial chal-lenge,prompting innovation in food processing technologies.This review introduces first the common nutritional challenges in the processing of staple food crops,followed by the comprehensive examination of research aiming to enhance the nutritional quality of staple food crop-based foods through innovative processing technologies,including microwave(MW),pulsed electric field(PEF),ultrasound,modern fer-mentation technology,and enzyme technology.Additionally,soybean processing is used as an example to underscore the importance of integrating innovative processing technologies for optimizing nutrient utilization in staple food crops.Although these innovative processing technologies have demonstrated a significant potential to improve nutrient utilization efficiency and enhance the overall nutritional pro-file of staple food crop-based food products,their current limitations must be acknowledged and addressed in future research.Fortunately,advancements in science and technology will facilitate pro-gress in food processing,enabling both the improvement of existing techniques as well as the develop-ment of entirely novel methodologies.This work aims to enhance the understanding of food practitioners on the way processing technologies may optimize nutrient utilization,thereby fostering innovation in food processing research and synergistic multi-technological strategies,ultimately providing valuable references to address global food security challenges.

文摘With the depletion of shallow mineral resources,mining operations are extending to greater depths and larger scales,increasing the risk of water inrush disasters,particularly from confined aquifers intersected by faults.This paper reviews the current state of research on fault-induced water inrushes in mining faces,examining the damage characteristics and permeability of fractured floor rock,the mechanical behavior of faults under mining stress,and the mechanisms driving water inrush.Advances in prevention technologies,risk assessment,and prediction methods are also summarized.Research shows that damage evolution in fractured floor rock,coupled with fluid-solid interactions,provides the primary pathways for water inrush.Stress-seepage coupling in porous media plays a decisive role in determining inrush potential.Mining-induced stress redistribution can activate faults,with parameters such as dip angle and internal friction angle controlling stress evolution and slip.Critical triggers include the hydraulic connectivity among faults,aquifers,and mining-induced fracture networks,followed by hydraulic erosion.A multi-pronged prevention framework has been developed,integrating precise fault detection,targeted grouting for water sealing,drainage to reduce water pressure,optimized waterproof coal pillar design,and dynamic risk assessment and prediction.However,gaps remain in understanding multi-physical field coupling under deep mining conditions,establishing quantitative criteria for fault activation-induced water inrush,and refining control technologies.Future work should focus on multi-scale numerical simulations,advanced active control measures,and intelligent,integrated prevention systems to clarify the mechanisms of fault-induced water inrush and enhance theoretical and technical support for mine safety.

文摘This article provides a comprehensive exploration of the current research landscape in the field of soft actuation technology applied to bio-inspired soft robots. In sharp contrast to their conventional rigid counterparts, bio-inspired soft robots are primarily constructed from flexible materials, conferring upon them remarkable adaptability and flexibility to execute a multitude of tasks in complex environments. However, the classification of their driving technology poses a significant challenge owing to the diverse array of employed driving mechanisms and materials. Here, we classify several common soft actuation methods from the perspectives of the sources of motion in bio-inspired soft robots and their bio-inspired objects, effectively filling the classification system of soft robots, especially bio-inspired soft robots. Then, we summarize the driving principles and structures of various common driving methods from the perspective of bionics, and discuss the latest developments in the field of soft robot actuation from the perspective of driving modalities and methodologies. We then discuss the application directions of bio-inspired soft robots and the latest developments in each direction. Finally, after an in-depth review of various soft bio-inspired robot driving technologies in recent years, we summarize the issues and challenges encountered in the advancement of soft robot actuation technology.

文摘Measuring the lifecycle of low-carbon energy technologies is critical to better understanding the innovation pattern.However,previous studies on lifecycle either focus on technical details or just provide a general overview,due to the lack of connection with innovation theories.This article attempts to fill this gap by analyzing the lifecycle from a combinatorial innovation perspective,based on patent data of ten low-carbon energy technologies in China from 1999 to 2018.The problem of estimating lifecycle stages can be transformed into analyzing the rise and fall of knowledge combinations.By building the international patent classification(IPC)co-occurrence matrix,this paper demonstrates the lifecycle evolution of technologies and develops an efficient quantitative index to define lifecycle stages.The mathematical measurement can effectively reflect the evolutionary pattern of technologies.Additionally,this article relates the macro evolution of lifecycle to the micro dynamic mechanism of technology paradigms.The sign of technology maturity is that new inventions tend to follow the patterns established by prior ones.Following this logic,this paper identifies different trends of paradigms in each technology field and analyze their transition.Furthermore,catching-up literature shows that drastic transformation of technology paradigms may open“windows of opportunity”for laggard regions.From the results of this paper,it is clear to see that latecomers can catch up with pioneers especially when there is a radical change in paradigms.Therefore,it is important for policy makers to capture such opportunities during the technology lifecycle and coordinate regional innovation resources.
