Therefore, detecting n-butanol safely and efficiently at low concentrations becomes critical for both environmental monitoring and human health. In this study, a novel Eu/Ce-codoped MOF-ZnO gas sensor was developed for the sensitive detection of n-butanol gas under ultraviolet activation at ambient temperature. A series of Eu/Ce-ZnO nanomaterials were synthesized via a simple co-precipitation route, by carefully designing the varied mass ratios of Eu and Ce incorporated into pristine ZnO derived from MOF precursors. The gas testing results revealed that introducing an appropriate amount of Eu and Ce would enlarge the specific surface area and enrich the oxygen vacancy content compared to pristine MOF-ZnO. Upon UV irradiation, the 0.03 wt% Eu 0.04 wt% Ce-ZnO sensor achieved a superior response of 611 for100 ppm n-butanol at room temperature, 15.28 times higher than that of pristine MOF-ZnO(40). Furthermore, the sensor presented rapid response/recovery times(15 s/28 s) and excellent selectivity. The above contributions pave the way for the promising development of highly sensitive, ultraviolet-enhanced gas sensors for ambient temperature detection of VOCs.展开更多

文摘The Propellant Feed System(PFS)is a crucial component of Electric Propulsion System(EPS)which is widely used in satellites for its high reliability and specific impulse.The Switching and Proportional Hybrid-controlled Xenon Feed System(SPHXFS)is a novel type of PFS with high flow regulation precision.This study develops a system-level simulation model with 75 components for the SPHXFS.The accuracy of the model is validated through the comparison with test data,showing an error of less than 3%during the startup phase and less than 0.1%after stabilization.The study analyzes the startup process and finds that the two-stage pressure reduction system avoids two-phase flow interference downstream,achieving a regulation accuracy of±0.1%.A long-term operation simulation of the system is conducted,revealing that pressure fluctuations occur upstream at 4767 s due to Bang-Bang control.However,with proportional control adjustments,these fluctuations do not affect the flow supply.Further research examines the impact of synchronous and asynchronous control modes of the Bang-Bang Valve(TPBBV)under the tank pressures of 6-10 MPa on the system's dynamic characteristics.It is found that the asynchronous control scheme results in a flow supply settling time that is 7.2-10s longer than the synchronous control scheme,with an overshoot increase of 4.1%-4.9%.These insights provide valuable reference and guidance for system optimization design and the formulation of operational strategies.

文摘The buffer zone of a World Natural Heritage Site constitutes a critical element of the heritage site protection system.It not only functions as an ecological security barrier,but also significantly influences the visual integrity and aesthetic value of the core area’s landscape.Given the rapid development of transportation infrastructure,particularly the growing number of high-speed railways traversing ecologically sensitive regions,the scientific assessment of their impact on the landscape environment of heritage sites has emerged as a pivotal concern in heritage conservation and regional development.This study focused on the section of the Guiyang-Nanning High-Speed Railway that traverses the buffer zone of the Libo World Natural Heritage Site in Guizhou Province.Beginning with five primary indicators,including natural landscape and aesthetic value,geological geomorphology and Earth history value,biodiversity value,integrity and protection management,and impact on ecological environment,a visual landscape impact assessment system for high-speed railways was developed based on the analytic hierarchy process(AHP)and the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method(FCE).Through expert scoring,hierarchical weight calculation,and fuzzy membership degree analysis,a comprehensive assessment was conducted on the landscape ecological quality,visual coordination,and aesthetic perception within the buffer zone following the construction of high-speed railways.The findings indicate that the construction of the Guiyang-Nanning High-Speed Railway generally harmonizes well with the landscape environment of the heritage site.The level of visual disturbance remains within an acceptable range and has not significantly damaged the overall aesthetic value or authenticity of the heritage site.Although the integrity of the landscape in certain local areas has experienced a slight decline due to the exposure of bridge and slope structures,the adverse effects have been effectively mitigated through engineering interventions such as vegetation restoration and color coordination.This study innovatively integrates the AHP with fuzzy mathematics methods to achieve a comprehensive evaluation that combines both qualitative and quantitative approaches.This integration provides a scientifically grounded analytical path and a practical technical framework for assessing the visual impact of linear infrastructure projects,such as high-speed railways,within the buffer zones of World Heritage Sites.The findings offer valuable insights for the protection of landscapes and the sustainable development of infrastructure in heritage sites.

文摘Due to errors in vehicle dynamics modeling,uncertainty in model parameters,and disturbances from curvature,the performance of the path tracking controller is poor or even unstable under high-speed and large-curvature conditions.Therefore,a path tracking robust control strategy based on force-driven H_(∞)and MPC is proposed.To fully exploit the nonlinear dynamics characteristics of tires,a force-driven state space model of a path tracking system based on a linear time-varying tire model is established;the H_(∞)and MPC methods are used to design a robust controller.Considering disturbance and system state constraints,the robust control constraint model based on LMI is established.Finally,the proposed controller is validated through joint simulations using CarSim and MATLAB.The results show that the maximum lateral deviation is reduced by 17.07%,and the maximum course angle deviation is reduced by 13.04%under large curvature disturbance conditions.The maximum lateral deviation is reduced by 27.85%,and the maximum course angle deviation is reduced by 31.17%under conditions of uncertain road adhesion coefficients.Based on the controller’s performance,the proposed controller effectively mitigates modeling errors,parameter uncertainties,and curvature disturbances.

文摘To enhance energy interaction among low-voltage stations(LVSs)and reduce the line loss of the distribution network,a novel operation mode of the micro-pumped storage system(mPSS)has been proposed based on the common reservoir.First,some operation modes of mPSS are analyzed,which include the separated reservoir mode(SRM)and common reservoir mode(CRM).Then,based on the SRM,and CRM,an energy mutual assistance control model between LVSs has been built to optimize energy loss.Finally,in the simulation,compared to the model without pumped storage in the LVS,the SRMand CLRMcan decrease the total energy loss by 294.377 and 432.578 kWh,respectively.The configuration of mPSS can improve the utilization rate of the new energy source generation system,and relieve the pressure of transformer capacity in the LVS.Compared with the SRM,the proposed CRM has reduced the total energy loss by 138.201 kWh,increased the new energy consumption by 161.642 kWh,and decreased the line loss by 7.271 kWh.With the efficiency of the mPSS improving,the total energy loss reduction of CRM will be 3.5 times that of SRM.Further,the CRMcan significantly reduce the reservoir capacity construction of mPSS and ismore suitable for scenarios where the capacity configuration of mPSS is limited.

文摘With the growing adoption of artificial intelligence algorithms and neural networks,online learning and adaptive methods for updating the bandwidth have become increasingly prevalent.However,the conditions required to ensure closed-loop stability when employing a time-varying bandwidth,as well as the supporting mathematical foundations,remain insufficiently studied.This paper investigates the stability condition for active disturbance rejection control(ADRC)with a time-varying bandwidth extended state observer(ESO).A new stability condition is derived,which means that the upper bound of rate of change for ESO bandwidth should be restricted.Moreover,under the proposed condition,the closed-loop stability of ADRC with a time-varying bandwidth observer is rigorously proved for nonlinear uncertainties.In simulations,the necessity of the proposed condition is illustrated,demonstrating that the rate of change of ESO bandwidth is crucial for closed-loop stability.

文摘This study introduces an enhanced adaptive fractional-order nonsingular terminal sliding mode controller(AFONTSMC)tailored for stabilizing a fully submerged hydrofoil craft(FSHC)under external disturbances,model uncertainties,and actuator saturation.A novel nonlinear disturbance observer modified by fractional-order calculus is proposed for flexible and less conservative estimation of lumped disturbances.An enhanced adaptive fractional-order nonsingular sliding mode scheme augmented by disturbance estimation is also introduced to improve disturbance rejection.This controller design only necessitates surpassing the estimation error rather than adhering strictly to the disturbance upper bound.Additionally,an adaptive fast-reaching law with a hyperbolic tangent function is incorporated to enhance the responsiveness and convergence rates of the controller,thereby reducing chattering.Furthermore,an auxiliary actuator compensator is developed to address saturation effects.The resultant closed system of the FSHC with the designed controller is globally asymptotically stable.
文摘CO_(2) hydrogenation to CH3OH is of great significance for achieving carbon neutrality.Here,we show a urea-assisted grinding strategy for synthesizing Cu-Zn-Ce ternary catalysts(CZC-G)with optimized interfacial synergy,achieving superior performance in CO_(2) hydrogenation to methanol.The CZC-G catalyst demonstrated exceptional methanol selectivity(96.8%)and a space-time yield of 73.6 gMeOH·kgcat^(–1)·h^(–1) under optimized conditions.Long-term stability tests confirmed no obvious deactivation over 100 h of continuous operation.Structural and mechanistic analyses revealed that the urea-assisted grinding method promotes the formation of Cu/Zn-O_(v)-Ce ternary interfaces and inhibits the reduction of ZnO,enabling synergistic interactions for efficient CO_(2) activation and selective stabilization of formate intermediates(HCOO^(*)),which are critical for methanol synthesis.In-situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectra and X-ray absorption spectroscopy studies elucidated the reaction pathway dominated by the formate mechanism,while suppressing the reverse water-gas shift reaction.This work underscores the critical role of synthetic methodologies in engineering interfacial structures,offering a strategy for designing high-performance catalysts for sustainable CO_(2) resource utilization.
文摘In recent years,the demand for synchronous acquisition of three-dimensional(3D)shape and col-or texture has surged in fields such as cultural heritage preservation and healthcare.Addressing this need,this paper proposes a novel method for simultaneous 3D shape and color texture capture.First,a linear model correlating camera exposure time with grayscale values is established.Through exposure time calibration,the projected red,green and blue(RGB)light and white-light grayscale values captured by a monochrome cam-era are aligned.Then,three sets of color fringes are projected onto the object to identify optimal pixels for 3D reconstruction.And,three pure-color patterns are projected to synthesize the color texture.Experimental res-ults show that this method effectively achieves synchronous 3D shape and color texture acquisition,offering high speed and precision,and avoids color crosstalk interference common in 3D reconstruction of colored ob-jects using a monochrome camera.

文摘Prolonged exposure to n-butanol, a common hazardous volatile organic compound(VOC) in the environment, can lead to a broad range of adverse health effects. Therefore, detecting n-butanol safely and efficiently at low concentrations becomes critical for both environmental monitoring and human health. In this study, a novel Eu/Ce-codoped MOF-ZnO gas sensor was developed for the sensitive detection of n-butanol gas under ultraviolet activation at ambient temperature. A series of Eu/Ce-ZnO nanomaterials were synthesized via a simple co-precipitation route, by carefully designing the varied mass ratios of Eu and Ce incorporated into pristine ZnO derived from MOF precursors. The gas testing results revealed that introducing an appropriate amount of Eu and Ce would enlarge the specific surface area and enrich the oxygen vacancy content compared to pristine MOF-ZnO. Upon UV irradiation, the 0.03 wt% Eu 0.04 wt% Ce-ZnO sensor achieved a superior response of 611 for100 ppm n-butanol at room temperature, 15.28 times higher than that of pristine MOF-ZnO(40). Furthermore, the sensor presented rapid response/recovery times(15 s/28 s) and excellent selectivity. The above contributions pave the way for the promising development of highly sensitive, ultraviolet-enhanced gas sensors for ambient temperature detection of VOCs.
文摘With the popularization of new technologies,telephone fraud has become the main means of stealing money and personal identity information.Taking inspiration from the website authentication mechanism,we propose an end-to-end datamodem scheme that transmits the caller’s digital certificates through a voice channel for the recipient to verify the caller’s identity.Encoding useful information through voice channels is very difficult without the assistance of telecommunications providers.For example,speech activity detection may quickly classify encoded signals as nonspeech signals and reject input waveforms.To address this issue,we propose a novel modulation method based on linear frequency modulation that encodes 3 bits per symbol by varying its frequency,shape,and phase,alongside a lightweightMobileNetV3-Small-based demodulator for efficient and accurate signal decoding on resource-constrained devices.This method leverages the unique characteristics of linear frequency modulation signals,making them more easily transmitted and decoded in speech channels.To ensure reliable data delivery over unstable voice links,we further introduce a robust framing scheme with delimiter-based synchronization,a sample-level position remedying algorithm,and a feedback-driven retransmission mechanism.We have validated the feasibility and performance of our system through expanded real-world evaluations,demonstrating that it outperforms existing advanced methods in terms of robustness and data transfer rate.This technology establishes the foundational infrastructure for reliable certificate delivery over voice channels,which is crucial for achieving strong caller authentication and preventing telephone fraud at its root cause.
