The main objectives are to find separation region and observe the influence of inlet swirling flow on the velocity fluctuation using ultrasound technique. The experiments were carried out in the pipe at Reynolds number Re = 1 × 104. In case of inlet swirling flow condition, a rotary swirler was used as swirling generator, and the swirl number was setup S = 1. The ultrasonic measurements were taken at four downstream locations of the second bend pipe. Phased Array Ultrasonic Velocity Profiler (Phased Array UVP) technique was applied to obtain the two-dimensional velocity of the fluid and the axial and tangential velocity fluctuation. It was found that the secondary reverse flow became smaller at the downstream from the bend when the inlet condition on the first bend was swirling flow. In addition, inlet swirling condition influenced mainly on the tangential velocity fluctuation, and its maximum turbulence intensity was 40%.展开更多

文摘Flexoelectricity refers to the link between electrical polarization and strain gradient fields in piezoelectric materials,particularly at the nano-scale.The present investigation aims to comprehensively focus on the static bending analysis of a piezoelectric sandwich functionally graded porous(FGP)double-curved shallow nanoshell based on the flexoelectric effect and nonlocal strain gradient theory.Two coefficients that reduce or increase the stiffness of the nanoshell,including nonlocal and length-scale parameters,are considered to change along the nanoshell thickness direction,and three different porosity rules are novel points in this study.The nanoshell structure is placed on a Pasternak elastic foundation and is made up of three separate layers of material.The outermost layers consist of piezoelectric smart material with flexoelectric effects,while the core layer is composed of FGP material.Hamilton’s principle was used in conjunction with a unique refined higher-order shear deformation theory to derive general equilibrium equations that provide more precise outcomes.The Navier and Galerkin-Vlasov methodology is used to get the static bending characteristics of nanoshells that have various boundary conditions.The program’s correctness is assessed by comparison with published dependable findings in specific instances of the model described in the article.In addition,the influence of parameters such as flexoelectric effect,nonlocal and length scale parameters,elastic foundation stiffness coefficient,porosity coefficient,and boundary conditions on the static bending response of the nanoshell is detected and comprehensively studied.The findings of this study have practical implications for the efficient design and control of comparable systems,such as micro-electromechanical and nano-electromechanical devices.
文摘A functional interlayer based on two-dimensional(2D)porous modified vermiculite nanosheets(PVS)was obtained by acid-etching vermiculite nanosheets.The as-obtained 2D porous nanosheets exhibited a high specific surface area of 427 m^(2)·g^(-1)and rich surface active sites,which help restrain polysulfides(LiPSs)through good physi-cal and chemical adsorption,while simultaneously accelerating the nucleation and dissolution kinetics of Li_(2)S,effec-tively suppressing the shuttle effect.The assembled lithium-sulfur batteries(LSBs)employing the PVS-based inter-layer delivered a high initial discharge capacity of 1386 mAh·g^(-1)at 0.1C(167.5 mAh·g^(-1)),long-term cycling stabil-ity,and good rate property.

文摘This paper investigates ruin,capital injection,and dividends for a two-dimensional risk model.The model posits that surplus levels of insurance companies are governed by a perturbed composite Poisson risk model.This model introduces a dependence between the two surplus levels,present in both the associated perturbations and the claims resulting from common shocks.Critical levels of capital injection and dividends are established for each of the two risks.The surplus levels are observed discretely at fixed intervals,guiding decisions on capital injection,dividends,and ruin at these junctures.This study employs a two-dimensional Fourier cosine series expansion method to approximate the finite time expected discounted operating cost until ruin.The ensuing approximation error is also quantified.The validity and accuracy of the method are corroborated through numerical examples.Furthermore,the research delves into the optimal capital allocation problem.
文摘An experimental investigation was performed to investigate two-dimensional axial velocity field at downstream of the 90°double bend pipe with and without inlet swirling condition. The main objectives are to find separation region and observe the influence of inlet swirling flow on the velocity fluctuation using ultrasound technique. The experiments were carried out in the pipe at Reynolds number Re = 1 × 104. In case of inlet swirling flow condition, a rotary swirler was used as swirling generator, and the swirl number was setup S = 1. The ultrasonic measurements were taken at four downstream locations of the second bend pipe. Phased Array Ultrasonic Velocity Profiler (Phased Array UVP) technique was applied to obtain the two-dimensional velocity of the fluid and the axial and tangential velocity fluctuation. It was found that the secondary reverse flow became smaller at the downstream from the bend when the inlet condition on the first bend was swirling flow. In addition, inlet swirling condition influenced mainly on the tangential velocity fluctuation, and its maximum turbulence intensity was 40%.

文摘Lithium-sulfur(Li-S)batteries with high energy density and capacity have garnered significant research attention among various energy storage devices.However,the shuttle effect of polysulfides(LiPSs)remains a major challenge for their practical application.The design of battery separators has become a key aspect in addressing the challenge.MXenes,a promising two-dimensional(2D)material,offer exceptional conductivity,large surface area,high mechanical strength,and active sites for surface reactions.When assembled into layered films,MXenes form highly tunable two-dimensional channels ranging from a few angstroms to over 1 nm.These nanoconfined channels are instrumental in facilitating lithium-ion transport while effectively impeding the shuttle effect of LiPSs,which are essential for improving the specific capacity and cyclic stability of Li-S batteries.Substantial progress has been made in developing MXenes-based separators for Li-S batteries,yet there remains a research gap in summarizing advancements from the perspective of interlayer engineering.This entails maintaining the 2D nanochannels of layered MXenes-based separators while modulating the physicochemical environment within the MXenes interlayers through targeted modifications.This review highlights advancements in in situ modification of MXenes and their integration with 0D,1D,and 2D materials to construct laminated nanocomposite separators for Li-S batteries.The future development directions of MXenes-based materials in Li-S energy storage devices are also outlined,to drive further advancements in MXenes for Li-S battery separators.

文摘The bending collapse and energy absorption of 7003 aluminum alloy bumper beams under four aging conditions(pre-aging,under-aging,peak-aging,and over-aging)were investigated through three-point bending tests.Microstructural characterization was performed using scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy.Based on the Swift−Hockett−Sherby constitutive model combined with the Gurson−Tvergaard−Needleman damage model,the plastic response and fracture behavior of the 7003 aluminum alloy under uniaxial tension and three-point bending were accurately predicted.The results showed that the peak bending force of the beams was proportional to the strength under different aging states,while stress triaxiality governed the cracking failure.Pre-aged and under-aged beams resisted cracking until reaching 250 mm displacement due to stress transition from tensile to compression on the bottom surface.The under-aged beam exhibited optimal energy absorption(7.86 kJ)and a higher peak force(38.75 kN).

文摘This study investigates the influence of initial crystallographic texture on the deformation mechanisms during three-point bending of AZ31 Mg alloy sheets.Three distinct orientations are examined by using the following bending specimens:(i)the normal direction(ND)sample,where the c-axes are predominantly aligned along the specimen thickness,(ii)the rolling direction(RD)sample,where the c-axes are mostly aligned along the longitudinal direction,and(iii)the 45 sample,where the c-axes are tilted at approximately 45°from both the thickness and longitudinal directions.The bending properties vary significantly depending on the initial texture,thereby affecting the strain accommodation and dominant deformation modes.The ND sample exhibits the lowest bendability due to its unfavorable orientation for{10–12}extension twinning and basal slip,which results in poor strain accommodation and early crack initiation in the outer tensile side.By comparison,the RD sample demonstrates an approximately 22.1%improvement,with extensive{10–12}extension twinning in the outer tensile zone.Meanwhile,the 45 sample exhibits the highest bendability(approximately 75.7%greater than that of the ND sample)due to sustained activation of both basal slip and{10–12}extension twinning,promoting uniform strain distribution and delaying fracture.Detailed electron backscatter diffraction analysis reveals that the 45 sample retains favorable crystallographic orientations for basal slip throughout bending,minimizing strain localization and enhancing the bendability.These findings highlight the importance of tailoring the initial texture in order to optimize the bending properties of Mg alloy sheets,and provide valuable insights for improving the manufacturability of Mg-based structural components.
文摘This research utilizes analytical solutions to investigate the issue of nonlinear static bending in nanobeams affected by the flexomagnetic effect.The nanobeams are exposed to mechanical loads and put in a temperature environment.The equilibrium equation of the beam is formulated based on the newly developed higher-order shear deformation theory.The flexomagnetic effect is explained by the presence of the strain gradient component,which also takes into consideration the impact of small-size effects.This study has used a flexible transformation to derive the equilibrium equation for a single variable,which significantly simplifies the process of determining the precise solution to the bending issue.This highlights the originality and significance of the present study,which is based on a newly developed shear deformation theory to clarify the distinctions between the nonlinear and linear problems.This study also presents the findings of numerical simulations that investigate the impact of various geometric,material,and temperature parameters on the nonlinear behavior of nanobeams.These discoveries are significant for designers to develop nanobeams that can function efficiently in many physical conditions,including mechanical,thermal,and magnetic mediums.

文摘Fiber Bragg grating(FBG)sensors are extensively used in various sensing applications due to their high sensitivity.However,they are inherently sensitive to both strain and temperature,with a cross-sensitivity problem,making it impossible to simultaneously monitor these two parameters using the Bragg wavelength shifts of a single uniform FBG.In this study,we bend the FBG pigtail to cause bending loss.The peak power of the FBG is used as the second characterization quantity.Our experimental results show that the Bragg wavelength sensitivities to strain(K_(ε))and temperature(K_(T))are 0.17 pm/ue and 16.5 pm/℃,respectively.Additionally,the peak power sensitivities to strain(P_(ε))and temperature(P_(T))are-0.00202 dBm/μεand-0.06 dBm/℃,respectively.The linear correlation coefficients for these measurements are all above 0.996.In this way,it is possible to simultaneously measure both strain and temperature using a single uniform FBG.

文摘This research investigates the bending response of folded multi-celled tubes(FMTs)fabricated by folded metal sheets.A three-point bending test for FMTs with circular and square sections is designed and introduced.The base numerical models are correlated with physical experiments and a static crashworthiness analysis of six FMT configurations to assess their energy absorption characteristics.The influences of thickness,sectional shape,and load direction on the bending response are studied.Results indicate that increasing the thickness of the tube and radian of the inner tube enhances the crashworthiness performance of FMT,yielding a 20.50%increase in mean crushing force,a 55.53%increase in specific energy absorption,and an 18.05%decrease in peak crushing force compared to traditional multi-celled tubes(TMTs).A theoretical analysis of the specific energy absorption indicates that FMTs outperform TMTs,particularly when the peak crushing force is prominent.This study highlights the innovative and practical potential of FMTs to improve the crashworthiness of thin-walled structures.

文摘Titanium dioxide(TiO_(2))has been an important protective ingredient in mineral-based sunscreens since the 1990s.However,traditional TiO_(2)nanoparticle formulations have seen little improvement over the past decades and continue to face persistent challenges related to light transmission,biosafety,and visual appearance.Here,we report the discovery of two-dimensional(2D)TiO_(2),characterized by a micro-sized lateral dimension(~1.6μm)and atomic-scale thickness,which fundamentally resolves these long-standing issues.The 2D structure enables exceptional light management,achieving 80%visible light transparency—rendering it nearly invisible on the skin—while maintaining UV-blocking performance comparable to unmodified rutile TiO_(2)nanoparticles.Its larger lateral size results in a two-orders-of-magnitude reduction in skin penetration(0.96 w/w%),significantly enhancing biosafety.Moreover,the unique layered architecture inherently suppresses the generation of reactive oxygen species(ROS)under sunlight exposure,reducing the ROS generation rate by 50-fold compared to traditional TiO_(2)nanoparticles.Through precise metal element modulation,we further developed the first customizable sunscreen material capable of tuning UV protection ranges and automatically matching diverse skin tones.The 2D TiO_(2)offers a potentially transformative approach to modern sunscreen formulation,combining superior UV protection,enhanced safety and a natural appearance.

文摘In clinical work,many soft medical pipelines are located deep within the body,resulting in a lack of feedback regarding bending or folding conditions,which presents significant challenges for medical staff.To solve the problem,this study innovatively designs a flexible bending sensor,which can be attached to the medical pipelines and monitor the bending conditions.Based on a flexible substrate with secondary microstructures copied from champagne rose petals,the interdigital electrodes are designed to enhance the sensitivity of the sensor due to the amplifying effect.A high sensitivity of 2.209%?1in a bending strain range of 8.9%,and a stable repeatability for over 6000 cycles under 1.8%bending strain are achieved by the sensor.By integrating the bending sensor,here,the nasogastric tube,femoral vein catheter,and tracheal intubation are used to demonstrate the sensing performance.Additionally,during the measurement,the sensing signals are processed and transformed to the bending angles simultaneously,enabling the direct visualization of the bending conditions of the pipelines.This work proposes innovative applications for bending sensors in medical technology and establishes a foundation for further research on flexible bending sensors.

文摘Owing to their rolling friction,two-dimensional piston pumps are highly suitable as power components for electro-hydrostatic actuators(EHAs).These pumps are particularly advantageous for applications requiring high efficiency and reliability.However,the ambiguity surrounding the output flow characteristics of individual two-dimensional pumps poses a significant challenge in achieving precise closed-loop control of the EHA positions.To address this issue,this study established a comprehensive numerical model that included gap leakage to analyze the impact of leakage on the output flow characteristics of a two-dimensional piston pump.The validity of the numerical analysis was indirectly confirmed through meticulous measurements of the leakage and volumetric efficiency,ensuring robust results.The research findings indicated that,at lower pump speeds,leakage significantly affected the output flow rate,leading to potential inefficiencies in the system.Conversely,at higher rotational speeds,the impact of leakage was less pronounced,implying that the influence of leakage on the pump outlet flow must be carefully considered and managed for EHAs to perform position servo control.Additionally,the research demonstrates that two-dimensional motion does not have a unique or additional effect on pump leakage,thus simplifying the design considerations.Finally,the study concluded that maintaining an oil-filled leakage environment is beneficial because it helps reduce the impact of leakage and enhances the overall volumetric efficiency of the pump system.
