文摘Cloud computing is a dynamic and rapidly evolving field,where the demand for resources fluctuates continuously.This paper delves into the imperative need for adaptability in the allocation of resources to applications and services within cloud computing environments.The motivation stems from the pressing issue of accommodating fluctuating levels of user demand efficiently.By adhering to the proposed resource allocation method,we aim to achieve a substantial reduction in energy consumption.This reduction hinges on the precise and efficient allocation of resources to the tasks that require those most,aligning with the broader goal of sustainable and eco-friendly cloud computing systems.To enhance the resource allocation process,we introduce a novel knowledge-based optimization algorithm.In this study,we rigorously evaluate its efficacy by comparing it to existing algorithms,including the Flower Pollination Algorithm(FPA),Spark Lion Whale Optimization(SLWO),and Firefly Algo-rithm.Our findings reveal that our proposed algorithm,Knowledge Based Flower Pollination Algorithm(KB-FPA),consistently outperforms these conventional methods in both resource allocation efficiency and energy consumption reduction.This paper underscores the profound significance of resource allocation in the realm of cloud computing.By addressing the critical issue of adaptability and energy efficiency,it lays the groundwork for a more sustainable future in cloud computing systems.Our contribution to the field lies in the introduction of a new resource allocation strategy,offering the potential for significantly improved efficiency and sustainability within cloud computing infrastructures.

文摘Cancer stem cells(CSCs)are a major challenge in cancer therapy.Stem cell-like cells form a unique subpopulation within many tumors,which govern the degree of malignancy by promoting metastasis,recurrence,heterogeneity,and resistance to drug and radiation.Furthermore,these cells can persist in patients even after undergoing multiple cycles of conventional cancer therapy via dormancy,where they no longer dividing but remain active.These may cause cancer recurrence at any time,even years after a supposed cure,and remain invisible to the immune system.Targeting specific surface markers,signaling pathways and tumor microenvironment,which all have a significant effect on CSC function and maintenance,could help to eradicate CSCs and improve patient survival.Combinations of traditional therapies with nano-based drug delivery systems can efficiently target CSCs.Considering the biology and properties of CSCs,we classify recent approaches involving nanoparticle engineering,extracellular matrix modulation,cocktail strategies,multi-stage therapy,CSC defanging,Trojan horse systems,targeted therapy and organelle targeting.We highlight the most recent advances in nanocarrier design and drug delivery technologies to target CSCs,combined with conventional treatment in preclinical and clinical trials.The prospects of these approaches for CSCs elimination and recurrent cancer treatment are discussed.
文摘Carbon capture and storage(CCS)is an advanced environmental technology for mitigating CO_(2) emissions and addressing climate change.Among the various approaches,adsorption has emerged as a promising method for CO_(2) capture due to its effiectiveness and practicality.This review explores the potential of clay minerals as adsorbents for CO_(2) capture,providing an in-depth analysis of their inherent properties and the mechanisms involved in adsorption process.The review begins with an introduction to CCS and the concept of adsorption,followed by a detailed examination of various clay minerals,including sepiolite,montmorillonite,bentonite,kaolinite,saponite,halloysite,and illite.Each mineral’s suitability for CO_(2) adsorption is assessed,highlighting the specific properties that contribute to their performance.The mechanisms of CO_(2) adsorption including physisorption,chemisorption,ion exchange,pore diffusion,intraparticle diffusion,surface complexation,and competitive adsorption are thoroughly discussed.The review also covers the modification of clay minerals through physical and chemical treatments,amine functionalization,and composite formation to enhance their CO_(2) adsorption capacity.Additionally,regeneration methods such as temperature-swing adsorption(TSA),pressure-swing adsorption(PSA),and purging are discussed,along with CO_(2) recovery and storage techniques for improving energy efficiency.The review concludes with an overview of characterization methods for clay-based adsorbents and potential applications,while addressing the challenges and future trends in thefield.This work emphasizes the promising role of clay-based adsorbents in advancing CCS technology.

文摘Greenhouse gas(GHG)emssions from fossil fuel consumption are driving global climate change.This study applied the fully modified ordinary least squares(FMOLS)model and pairwise panel Granger causality test to explore the relationships of GHG emissions with gross domestic product(GDP),population,urbanization,natural resource rents,foreign direct investment(FDI),and renewable energy consumption in 12 Middle East and North Africa(MENA)countries(Algeria,Bahrain,Comoros,Djibouti,Egypt,Qatar,Somalia,Saudi Arabia,Syria,the United Arab Emirates,Tunisia,and Yemen)from 1990 to 2023.Due to the limited data on renewable energy after 2020,the coverage of renewable energy consumption is from 1990 to 2021.Findings showed that Saudi Arabia,Egypt,Algeria,the United Arab Emirates,and Qatar are the top 5 GHG emitters in the MENA region,with the GHG emissions of the energy sector rising fastest among all sectors.Results also indicated that a 1.00%increase in GDP,population,urbanization,natural resource rents,and FDI raises GHG emissions by 0.48%,0.61%,0.86%,0.29%,and 0.11%,respectively.Conversely,a 1.00%increase in renewable energy consumption reduces GHG emissions by 0.13%.Effective policies promoting renewable energy investment and the adoption of renewable energy could significantly reduce electricity costs and GHG emissions,contributing to achieving climate goals,such as net-zero emissions and environmental sustainability.Additionally,the increase of renewable energy consumption and technology development would improve energy efficiency,create jobs,and stimulate economic growth in the MENA region.This study recommends tailored policy instruments to support the transition to low-emission technologies and strategies.

文摘In this paper,we use the Riemann-Hilbert(RH)method to investigate the Cauchy problem of the reverse space-time nonlocal Hirota equation with step-like initial data:q(z,0)=o(1)as z→-∞and q(z,0)=δ+o(1)as z→∞,whereδis an arbitrary positive constant.We show that the solution of the Cauchy problem can be determined by the solution of the corresponding matrix RH problem established on the plane of complex spectral parameterλ.As an example,we construct an exact solution of the reverse space-time nonlocal Hirota equation in a special case via this RH problem.
文摘Waste management strategies employed by emerging economies worldwide are often insufficient to address the new-age sustainability challenges.Especially in chemicalintensive manufacturing industries,increasing levels of waste production are a significant environmental threat.Adopting a circular supply chain(CSC)can be a viable solution to this problem since it incorporates the components of the circular economy into an organization's supply chain,bringing an engaging viewpoint to the supply chain sustainability field.Nevertheless,the adoption of CSC in chemical-intensive manufacturing industries faces various intricate challenges in emerging economies.This study,therefore,aims to explore and evaluate the challenges associated with adopting CSC in the chemical-intensive manufacturing industries,using the empirical case of an emerging economy,Bangladesh.After a thorough literature review and expert validation,26 challenges were analyzed using a probabilistic group decision-making approach,i.e.,the Bayesian best-worst method(BWM).The result showed that the most significant challenge is the chemical composition-related complexity(global weight=0.0801),followed by strong emphasis on the take-make-dispose policy(0.0705),and insufficient investment and financial resources(0.0697).On the contrary,the least important challenge is the resistance toward the transition from conventional supply chain to CSC(0.0078).The outcomes of this study are expected to enrich existing knowledge and comprehension of the challenges linked to implementing CSC practices in Bangladesh and contribute to achieving Sustainable Development Goals(SDGs),such as SDG 3(good health and wellbeing),SDG 11(sustainable cities and communities),SDG 12(responsible consumption and production),SDG 13(climate action),and so on.
文摘Heat treatments play a crucial role in enhancing the mechanical properties of AZ91 Mg alloy by dissolving coarse phases during solution treatment and promoting precipitation during aging.However,non-uniform microstructures and coarse secondary phases in conventional casting methods hinder the effectiveness of these treatments,leading to reduced ductility,inconsistent properties,and prolonged durations.To overcome these challenges,this study introduces the Strain Integrated Gas-Infusion(SIGI)casting process that integrates strain and gas infusion in the semi-solid state.The impact of the SIGI process on the solution treatment and aging kinetics of AZ91 Mg alloy is explored.The SIGI process refinesα-Mg andβ-Mg_(17)Al_(12)phases,significantly enhancing mechanical properties.Experimental and quantitative analyses reveal that the SIGI process accelerates solute atom dissolution,reducing solution treatment times by half,and promotes faster nucleation and growth of precipitates during aging,shortening aging times by one-third.These improvements result in substantial gains in ultimate tensile strength(~40-50%)and ductility(~20-30%)after age hardening compared to conventional casting.The mechanisms driving these changes,including enhanced nucleation rates,reduced diffusion distances,and microstructural refinement,are discussed.These findings demonstrate the potential of the SIGI casting process to advance magnesium alloy performance for engineering applications.

文摘During cold rolling in magnesium(Mg)alloys,there will always be serious ductility deterioration,which greatly restricts the application of this processing method.In this work,ductility-strength synergy occurred after cold rolling was carried out on a<0001>fiber textured Mg-17.5Gd-Zr alloy(wt.%).The ductility-strength synergy can be mainly attributed to texture randomization,microstructure refinement,and easier basal slip transfer condition in the twinned grains.Firstly,the activation of multiple twinning behaviors,i.e.,{10-12},{10-11},and{11-21}twinning,and related twin-twin interaction restrict the formation of strong basal texture and facilitate the texture randomization.Secondly,profuse high-angle grain boundaries form through dislocation-twin interaction,twin-twin interaction,and dislocation interaction,which promote microstructure refinement.Thirdly,the basal slip transfer becomes easier in the twinned grains owing to the activation of multiple twinning behaviors and their impingements.Activation of{11-21}twinning and<c+a>dislocations and the<0001>fiber texture which is favorable for multiple twinning activating during cold rolling are considered to be the key roles for microstructure and texture optimization.

文摘Twins play an important role in the texture transition during annealing.In a cold rolled high rare earth content magnesium(Mg)alloys with{10–12}extension twins,{11–21}extension twins,{10–11}compression twins and{10–11}-{10–12}double twins and frequent twin-twin interactions,quasi-in-situ electron backscatter diffraction method was used to observe the twin induced static recrystallization(SRX)and related effect on texture during annealing.The results show that basal component was consumed owing to the SRX occurred in basal oriented{10–12}twins and SRXed grains with several specific orientations show preferential grain growth.SRX widely operated in the{10–12}extension and{11–21}extension twins,but absent in most{10–11}compression and{10–11}-{10–12}double twins,which is different to traditional twin induced SRX.Most compression/double twins detwinned while only partial tension twins detwinned.Operation of{11–21}twins and resultant twin-twin interaction facilitate the formation of serrated twin boundaries,which can serve as nucleation sites.Activation of<c+a>dislocation and related dislocation interaction in high dislocation density areas promote the formation of new grain boundaries and related SRX.Profuse<c+a>dislocations in basal oriented twins release the strain accumulation in compression/double twins and thus result in the absence of SRX.The twin size difference,storage energy and dislocation-twin interaction commonly functioned to the detwinning during annealing.The near-coincide site lattice boundaries that show high mobility were considered to be the important contributor to the preferential grain growth of SRXed grains.

文摘We propose a method of full-color,scan-free,and natural-light motion-picture holography for full-color 4D(3D+time)imaging and develop a portable natural-light motion-picture holographic camera that can be set on a movable table without any antivibration structure.Full-color motion-picture holograms of objects illuminated by natural light are obtained at the frame rate of an image sensor.We perform the single-shot natural-light full-color 3D imaging of objects illuminated by sunlight and the full-color 4D imaging of a moving object.This holographic camera is capable of full-color 4D imaging of objects ranging in size from the centimeter order to the 10-m order.This opens up a new stage in holographic imaging,overcoming the limitations of conventional holographic imaging despite the portability of this camera.

文摘This paper analyzes the nonlinear dynamic characteristics and stability of Aero-Engine Dual-Rotor(AEDR)systems under high-frequency excitation,based on the Adaptive Harmonic Balance with the Asymptotic Harmonic Selection(AHB-AHS)method.A finite element dynamic equation for the AEDR system is introduced,considering complex nonlinearities of the intershaft bearing,unbalanced excitations,and high-frequency excitation.A solving strategy combining the AHB-AHS method and improved arclength continuation method is proposed to solve highdimensional dynamic equations containing complex nonlinearities and to track periodic solutions with parameter variations.The Floquet theory is used to analyze the types of bifurcation points in the system and the stability of periodic motions.The results indicate that high-frequency excitation can couple high-order and low-order modes,especially when the system undergoes superharmonic resonance.High-frequency excitation leads to more combination frequency harmonics,among which N_(f)ω_(1)-2ω_(2)dominates.Furthermore,changing the parameters(amplitude and frequency)of high-frequency excitation widens or shifts the unstable regions of the system.These findings contribute to understanding the mechanism of high-frequency excitation on aero-engines and demonstrate that the proposed AHB-AHS method is a powerful tool for analyzing highdimensional complex nonlinear dynamic systems under multi-frequency excitation.
文摘To achieve carbon dioxide(CO_(2))storage through enhanced oil recovery,accurate forecasting of CO_(2) subsurface storage and cumulative oil production is essential.This study develops hybrid predictive models for the determination of CO_(2) storage mass and cumulative oil production in unconventional reservoirs.It does so with two multi-layer perceptron neural networks(MLPNN)and a least-squares support vector machine(LSSVM),hybridized with grey wolf optimization(GWO)and/or particle swarm optimization(PSO).Large,simulated datasets were divided into training(70%)and testing(30%)groups,with normalization applied to both groups.Mahalanobis distance identifies/eliminates outliers in the training subset only.A non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm(NSGA-II)combined with LSSVM selected seven influential features from the nine available input parameters:reservoir depth,porosity,permeability,thickness,bottom-hole pressure,area,CO_(2) injection rate,residual oil saturation to gas flooding,and residual oil saturation to water flooding.Predictive models were developed and tested,with performance evaluated with an overfitting index(OFI),scoring analysis,and partial dependence plots(PDP),during training and independent testing to enhance model focus and effectiveness.The LSSVM-GWO model generated the lowest root mean square error(RMSE)values(0.4052 MMT for CO_(2) storage and 9.7392 MMbbl for cumulative oil production)in the training group.That trained model also exhibited excellent generalization and minimal overfitting when applied to the testing group(RMSE of 0.6224 MMT for CO_(2) storage and 12.5143 MMbbl for cumulative oil production).PDP analysis revealed that the input features“area”and“porosity”had the most influence on the LSSVM-GWO model's pre-diction performance.This paper presents a new hybrid modeling approach that achieves accurate forecasting of CO_(2) subsurface storage and cumulative oil production.It also establishes a new standard for such forecasting,which can lead to the development of more effective and sustainable solutions for oil recovery.
