The petrophysical properties of gas hydrate-bearing sediments(GHBS) are crucial for understanding the characteristics of gas hydrate reservoirs, the spatial distribution of natural gas hydrates, and their exploitation potential. Geophysical exploration remains the primary approach for investigating the petrophysical properties of GHBS. However, limitations in resolution make it challenging to accurately characterize complex sediment structures, leading to difficulties in precisely interpreting petrophysical properties. Laboratory-based petrophysical experiments provide highly accurate results for petrophysical properties. Despite their accuracy, these experiments are costly, and difficulties in controlling variables may introduce uncertainties into geophysical exploration models.Advances in imaging and simulation techniques have established digital rock technology as an indispensable tool for enhancing petrophysical experimentation. This technology offers a novel microscopic perspective for elucidating the three-dimensional(3D) spatial distribution and multi-physical responses of GHBS. This paper presents an in-depth discussion of digital rock technology as applied to GHBS, with an emphasis on digital rock reconstruction and simulation of petrophysical properties. First, we summarize two common methods for constructing digital rocks of GHBS: petrophysical experimental methods and numerical reconstruction methods, followed by analyses of their respective advantages and limitations. Next, we delve into numerical simulation methods for evaluating GHBS petrophysical properties, including electrical, elastic, and fluid flow characteristics. Finally, we conduct a comprehensive analysis of the current trends in digital rock reconstruction and petrophysical simulation techniques for GHBS, emphasizing the necessity of multi-scale, multi-component, high-resolution 3D digital rock models to facilitate the precise characterization of complex gas hydrate reservoirs. Future applications of microscopic digital rock technology should be integrated with macroscopic geophysical exploration to enable more comprehensive and precise analyses of GHBS petrophysical properties.展开更多

文摘Photovoltaic(PV)power generation is undergoing significant growth and serves as a key driver of the global energy transition.However,its intermittent nature,which fluctuates with weather conditions,has raised concerns about grid stability.Accurate PV power prediction has been demonstrated as crucial for power system operation and scheduling,enabling power slope control,fluctuation mitigation,grid stability enhancement,and reliable data support for secure grid operation.However,existing prediction models primarily target centralized PV plants,largely neglecting the spatiotemporal coupling dynamics and output uncertainties inherent to distributed PV systems.This study proposes a novel Spatio-Temporal Graph Neural Network(STGNN)architecture for distributed PV power generation prediction,designed to enhance distributed photovoltaic(PV)power generation forecasting accuracy and support regional grid scheduling.This approach models each PV power plant as a node in an undirected graph,with edges representing correlations between plants to capture spatial dependencies.The model comprises multiple Sparse Attention-based Adaptive Spatio-Temporal(SAAST)blocks.The SAAST blocks include sparse temporal attention,sparse spatial attention,an adaptive Graph Convolutional Network(GCN),and a temporal convolution network(TCN).These components eliminate weak temporal and spatial correlations,better represent dynamic spatial dependencies,and further enhance prediction accuracy.Finally,multi-dimensional comparative experiments between the STGNN and other models on the DKASC PV dataset demonstrate its superior performance in terms of accuracy and goodness-of-fit for distributed PV power generation prediction.

文摘The tensile strength of rocks under real-time high-temperatures is essential for enhanced geothermal system development.However,the complex occurrence and deep burial of hot dry rocks limit the quantity and quality of standard samples for mechanical testing.This paper compared the tensile strengths obtained from Brazilian splitting tests on standard samples(with a diameter of 50 mm and a thickness of 25 mm)and micro-tensile samples(with a diameter of 50 mm and a thickness of 25 mm)of two types of granites.A power-law size effect model was established between the two sets of data,validating the reliability of the testing method.Then,miniature Brazilian splitting under real-time high-temperature,combined with X-ray diffraction(XRD)revealed temperature-dependent strength variations and microstructural damage mechanisms.The results show that:(1)The comparison error between the tensile strength obtained by the fitting model and that of the measured standard samples was less than 6%.(2)In real-time high-temperature conditions,tensile strength of granite exhibited non-monotonic behavior,increasing below 300°C before decreasing,with sharp declines at 400–500°C and 600–700°C.(3)Thermal damage stems from the differences in the high-temperature behavior of minerals,including dehydration,phase transformation,and differential expansion.

文摘Silicon carbide(SiC)ceramics are extensively utilized in aerospace,national defense,and petrochemical industries due to their superior physical and chemical properties.The processing of bulk SiC ceramics necessitates precise and efficient grinding techniques to produce components with satisfactory functionality.However,the inherent high hardness and brittleness of SiC ceramics present significant challenges during grinding,leading to severe brittle fracture and tool wear that compromise both surface integrity and production efficiency.Although ductile-regime grinding of SiC ceramics can be achieved by enhancing machine tool accuracy and stiffness while optimizing wheel performance alongside appropriate selection of process parameters,a comprehensive summary of the mechanisms underlying damage evolution during grinding is lacking,and a mature grinding process for SiC ceramics has yet to be developed.To bridge this gap,the sintering technologies,mechanical properties,and microstructures of SiC ceramics were briefly covered.The grinding-induced damage mechanism and low-damage grinding technologies of SiC ceramics were summarized.The fundamental science underlying the ductile deformation and removal mechanisms of brittle solids was emphasized.Additionally,attention was directed towards the critical role of hybrid energy field grinding in minimizing brittle damages and promoting removal efficiency.This review not only elucidates the intrinsic interactions between the work material and abrasives,but also offers valuable insights for optimizing the grinding processes of brittle solids.

文摘Natural gas hydrates are crystalline solid complexes with different morphologies found in marine sediments and permafrost zones. The petrophysical properties of gas hydrate-bearing sediments(GHBS) are crucial for understanding the characteristics of gas hydrate reservoirs, the spatial distribution of natural gas hydrates, and their exploitation potential. Geophysical exploration remains the primary approach for investigating the petrophysical properties of GHBS. However, limitations in resolution make it challenging to accurately characterize complex sediment structures, leading to difficulties in precisely interpreting petrophysical properties. Laboratory-based petrophysical experiments provide highly accurate results for petrophysical properties. Despite their accuracy, these experiments are costly, and difficulties in controlling variables may introduce uncertainties into geophysical exploration models.Advances in imaging and simulation techniques have established digital rock technology as an indispensable tool for enhancing petrophysical experimentation. This technology offers a novel microscopic perspective for elucidating the three-dimensional(3D) spatial distribution and multi-physical responses of GHBS. This paper presents an in-depth discussion of digital rock technology as applied to GHBS, with an emphasis on digital rock reconstruction and simulation of petrophysical properties. First, we summarize two common methods for constructing digital rocks of GHBS: petrophysical experimental methods and numerical reconstruction methods, followed by analyses of their respective advantages and limitations. Next, we delve into numerical simulation methods for evaluating GHBS petrophysical properties, including electrical, elastic, and fluid flow characteristics. Finally, we conduct a comprehensive analysis of the current trends in digital rock reconstruction and petrophysical simulation techniques for GHBS, emphasizing the necessity of multi-scale, multi-component, high-resolution 3D digital rock models to facilitate the precise characterization of complex gas hydrate reservoirs. Future applications of microscopic digital rock technology should be integrated with macroscopic geophysical exploration to enable more comprehensive and precise analyses of GHBS petrophysical properties.

文摘This study innovatively employs functional near-infrared spectroscopy(fNIRS)technology to investigate passengers’brain responses to various external stimuli during high-speed train operations,assessing their impact on passenger comfort.Three stimuli are examined:passing through tunnels,sonic booms at tunnel exits,and two trains meeting within the tunnel.The analysis of environmental variables,including cabin noise,cabin-to-external pressure,and cabin-to-body acceleration,reveals that changes in auditory and pressure levels during the tunnel experience led to an 87%increase in oxygenated hemoglobin(HbO)levels in the temporal lobe(TL).This reflects a brief discomfort that subsides as passengers adapt,with HbO levels nearly returning to pre-tunnel levels upon exit.Among the stimuli,the sonic boom triggered the most significant neural response,with HbO fluctuations increased by 175%.In contrast,the impact of train meetings was minor,yielding an average HbO increase of only 14.21%.Connectivity analysis further shows significant enhancements in brain functional connectivity during tunnel entrance and sonic boom scenarios,with increases of 52%and 80%,respectively.Our findings contribute to passenger comfort assessment by establishing objective neurophysiological measures that quantify previously subjective experiences.The application of fNIRS in this dynamic environment creates new possibilities for evidence-based comfort optimization in railway design.

文摘Objective:Hyper-progression recurrence(HPR)after hepatectomy is a specific recurrence pattern associated with extremely poor prognosis in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC).This study was aimed at investigating the probable risk factors and establishing comprehensive models for formulating clinical strategies.Methods:Overall,16,158 patients with HCC from 8 hospitals were screened,among whom 3,125 patients who underwent R0 resection were included,and divided into development(n=2,113)and validation(n=1,012)cohorts.A comprehensive study of HPR predictive models and biological features was conducted.Results:Among the 3,125 enrolled patients,506(16.19%)developed HPR.The influence of HPR on extremely poor prognosis was reflected by recurrence features,adverse effects on systemic and liver function,and limited therapeutic options.Nine variables closely associated with HPR were identified,and incorporated into nomogram and conditional inference tree models,which successfully achieved pre-and post-operative HPR risk stratification and facilitated clinical decision-making.Multi-dimensional verification also confirmed the predictive accuracy of model combinations and their reliability in clinical applications.Furthermore,biological analyses revealed that HCCs with HPR exhibited hyperactive biological processes,inactive metabolism,and immune exhaustion features,together with high MYCN/HMGA2 co-expression,thereby enhancing understanding of the molecular events leading to HPR and providing valuable knowledge for HPR management.Conclusions:HPR after hepatectomy is associated with extremely poor prognosis and requires substantial attention.We constructed comprehensive predictive models and propose a clinical strategy for guiding HPR prevention and management.

文摘The cure rate for chronic neurodegenerative diseases remains low,creating an urgent need for improved intervention methods.Recent studies have shown that enhancing mitochondrial function can mitigate the effects of these diseases.This paper comprehensively reviews the relationship between mitochondrial dysfunction and chronic neurodegenerative diseases,aiming to uncover the potential use of targeted mitochondrial interventions as viable therapeutic options.We detail five targeted mitochondrial intervention strategies for chronic neurodegenerative diseases that act by promoting mitophagy,inhibiting mitochondrial fission,enhancing mitochondrial biogenesis,applying mitochondria-targeting antioxidants,and transplanting mitochondria.Each method has unique advantages and potential limitations,making them suitable for various therapeutic situations.Therapies that promote mitophagy or inhibit mitochondrial fission could be particularly effective in slowing disease progression,especially in the early stages.In contrast,those that enhance mitochondrial biogenesis and apply mitochondria-targeting antioxidants may offer great benefits during the middle stages of the disease by improving cellular antioxidant capacity and energy metabolism.Mitochondrial transplantation,while still experimental,holds great promise for restoring the function of damaged cells.Future research should focus on exploring the mechanisms and effects of these intervention strategies,particularly regarding their safety and efficacy in clinical settings.Additionally,the development of innovative mitochondria-targeting approaches,such as gene editing and nanotechnology,may provide new solutions for treating chronic neurodegenerative diseases.Implementing combined therapeutic strategies that integrate multiple intervention methods could also enhance treatment outcomes.

文摘The TiB+TiC dual-reinforced B_(4)C/TC4 composite was in-situ fabricated via incorporating 0.5wt%B_(4)C reinforcement during the laser melting deposition process.Different heat treatments of annealing and solid solution were used to regulate the microstructure,mechanical properties,and corrosion properties of B_(4)C/TC4 composite.Results show that with the increase in temperature from 500℃to 800°C,partial lamellarα-Ti in the as-deposited sample is gradually transformed into equiaxedα-Ti,accompanied by the disappearance of basketweave microstructure.At 1100°C,a small portion of TiC phase suffers fusion.This composite exhibits the optimal combination of strength and plasticity after annealing at 500℃for 4 h followed by furnace cooling,which is attributed to the stress release effect and the refined basketweave microstructure.However,this composite shows a decline in corrosion resistance after various heat treatments due to grain coarsening and micro-galvanic corrosion.

文摘Laser powder bed fusion(LPBF)is highly suitable for forming 18Ni300 mold steel,thanks to its excellent capability in manufacturing complex shapes and outstanding capacity for regulating microstructures.It is widely used in fields such as injection molding,die casting,and stamping dies.Adding reinforcing particles into steel is an effective means to improve its performance.Nb/18Ni300 composites were fabricated by LPBF using two kinds of Nb powders with different particle sizes,and their microstructures and properties were studied.The results show that the unmelted Nb particles are uniformly distributed in the 18Ni300 matrix and the grains are refined,which is particularly pronounced with fine Nb particles.In addition,element diffusion occurs between the particles and the matrix.The main phases of the base alloy are α-Fe and a small amount of γ-Fe.With the addition of Nb,part of the α-Fe is transformed into γ-Fe,and unmelted Nb phases appear.The addition of Nb also enhances the hardness and wear resistance of the composites but slightly reduces their tensile properties.After aging treatment,the molten pools and grain boundaries become blurred,grains are further refined,and the interfaces around the particles are thinned.The aging treatment also promotes the formation of reverted austenite.The hardness,ultimate tensile strength,and volumetric wear rate of the base alloy reach 51.9 HRC,1704 MPa,and 17.8×10^(-6) mm^(3)/(N·m),respectively.In contrast,the sample added with fine Nb particles has the highest hardness(56.1 HRC),ultimate tensile strength(1892 MPa)and yield strength(1842 MPa),and the volume wear rate of the sample added with coarse Nb particles is reduced by 90%to 1.7×10^(-6) mm^(3)/(N·m).
文摘[Objectives]To provide a reference for the efficient use of wild Paeonia suffruticosa germplasm resources and the scientific selection of parents.[Methods]This study systematically evaluated cross-compatibility by conducting interspecific crosses among the major wild species subsect.Delavayanae(Paeonia delavayi,Paeonia lutea,Paeonia potaninii,and Paeonia ludlowii)as well as reciprocal crosses between these species and cultivated varieties from the subsect.Vaginatae.[Results]Crosses among P.delavayi,P.lutea,and P.potaninii generally exhibited good seed set,with the resulting seeds showing a high emergence rate.In contrast,crosses involving P.ludlowii as a parent produced only a limited number of seeds,none of which germinated.In crosses with cultivated varieties where the wild species served as the maternal parent,the average seed set ranked as follows:P.lutea>P.delavayi>P.ludlowii>P.potaninii.When wild species were used as paternal parent,the average seed set ranked as follows:P.potaninii>P.lutea>P.delavayi>P.ludlowii.On the whole,most crosses between wild species of subsect.Delavayanae and cultivated varieties achieved normal seed set,demonstrating a certain degree of cross-compatibility.However,when the wild species served as the maternal parent,both the seed set and seedling emergence rate were superior to those in the reciprocal crosses(with wild species as the paternal parent).[Conclusions]Significant differences in cross-compatibility were observed among species within Paeonia subsect.Delavayanae.In addition,a significant maternal effect was identified in crosses between wild species of this subsection and cultivated varieties.These findings suggest that by selecting highly compatible combinations,there remains considerable potential for utilizing these wild species in peony breeding.
