However, the presence of La atoms at the B-site in ABX_(3) structures has not yet been observed. Under high pressure, perovskites exhibit unexpected phase transitions. In this study, we report the discovery of SbLaO_(3) under ambient pressure, with a space group of R3m. Mechanical property calculations indicate that it is a brittle material, and it possesses a band gap of 4.0266 e V, classifying it as an insulator.We also investigate the phase at 300 GPa, where the space group shifts to P2_(1/m). Additionally, the P2_(1/m) phase of LaInO_(3) under 300 GPa is explored. Ab initio molecular dynamics calculations reveal that the melting point of SbLaO_(3) is exceptionally high. The inclusion of Sb alters the electronic structure compared with LaInO_(3), and the Vickers hardness(H_(v)) is estimated to reach 20.97 GPa. This research provides insights into the phase transitions of perovskites under high pressure.展开更多

This research focuses on analysis of the neutronic properties of a silicon carbide(SiC) cladding fuel assembly, which provides a greater safety margin as a type of accident-tolerant fuel for pressurized water reactors. The general physical performance of SiC cladding is explored to ascertain its neutronic performance. The neutron spectrum, accumulation of ^(239)Pu, physical characteristics,temperature reactivity coefficient, and power distribution are analyzed. Furthermore, the influences of a burnable poison rod and enrichment are explored. SiC cladding assemblies show a softer neutron spectrum and flatter power distribution than conventional Zr alloy cladding fuel assemblies. Lower enrichment fuel is required when SiC cladding is adopted. However, the positive reactivity coefficient associated with the SiC material remains to be offset. The results reveal that SiC cladding assemblies show broad agreement with the neutronic performance of conventional Zr alloy cladding fuel. In the meantime, its unique physical characteristics can lead to improved safety and economy.展开更多

The effects of reaction conditions were investigated in detail. The results showed that, with increasing reaction temperature, the gas-phase reaction was enhanced and a significant amount of methane was converted into COx; with the CH4/O2 molar ratio of 5, the highest C2 (ethylene and ethane) yield of 25% was achieved; the presence of steam (as diluent) had a positive effect on the C2 selectivity and yield. Under lower methane gaseous hourly space velocity (GHSV), higher selectivity and yield of C2 were obtained as the result of the decrease of released heat energy. In 100 h reaction time, the C2 selectivity of 66%-61% and C2 yield of 24.2%-25.4% were achieved by a single pass without any significant loss in catalytic performance.展开更多

In Fischer-Tropsch (FT) section, biomass-derived syngas, mainly composed of a mixture of carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrogen (H2), is converted into various forms of hydrocarbon products over a catalyst at specified temperature and pressure. Fixed-bed reactors are typically used for these processes as conventional FT reactors. The fixed-bed or packed-bed type reactor has its drawbacks, which are heat transfer limitation, i.e. a hot spot problem involved highly exothermic characteristics of FT reaction, and mass transfer limitation due to the condensation of liquid hydrocarbon products occurred on catalyst surface. This work is initiated to develop a new chemical reactor design in which a better distribution of gaseous reactants and hydrocarbon products could be achieved, and led to higher throughput and conversion. The main goal of the research is the enhancement of a fixed-bed reactor, focusing on the application of KenicsTM static mixer insertion in the tubular packed-bed reactor. Two FTS experiments were carried out using two reactors i.e., with and without static mixer insertion within catalytic beds. The modeled syngas used was a mixed gas composed of H2/CO in 2 : 1 molar ratio that was fed at the rate of 30 mL(STP)·min^- 1 (GHSV ≈ 136 mL·gcat^-1 ·h^-1) into the fixed Ru supported aluminum catalyst bed of weight 13.3 g. The reaction was carried out at 180 ℃ and atmospheric pressure continuously for 36 h for both experiments. Both transient and steady-state conversions (in terms of time on stream) were reported. The results revealed that the steady-state CO conversion for the case using the static mixer was approximately 3.5 times higher than that of the case without static mixer. In both cases, the values of chain growth probability of hydrocarbon products (α) for Fischer-Tropsch synthesis were 0.92 and 0.89 for the case with and without static mixer, respectively.展开更多

文摘As an independent thermodynamic parameter,pressure significantly influences interatomic distances,leading to an increase in material density.In this work,we employ the CALYPSO structure search and density functional theory calculations to explore the structural phase transitions and electronic properties of calcium-sulfur compounds(Ca_(x)S_(1-x),where x=1/4,1/3,1/2,2/3,3/4,4/5)under 0-1200 GPa.The calculated formation enthalpies suggest that Ca_(x)S_(1-x)compounds undergo multiple phase transitions and eventually decompose into elemental Ca and S,challenging the traditional view that pressure stabilizes and densifies compounds.The analysis of formation enthalpy indicates that an increase in pressure leads to a rise in internal energy and the PV term,resulting in thermodynamic instability.Bader charge analysis reveals that this phenomenon is attributed to a decrease in charge transfer under high pressure.The activation of Ca-3d orbitals is significantly enhanced under pressure,leading to competition with Ca-4s orbitals and S-3p orbitals.This may cause the formation enthalpy minimum on the convex hull to shift sequentially from CaS to CaS3,then to Ca_(3)S and Ca_(2)S,and finally back to CaS.These findings provide critical insights into the behavior of alkaline-earth metal sulfides under high pressure,with implications for the synthesis and application of novel materials under extreme conditions and for understanding element distribution in planetary interiors.
文摘The pressure and temperature increase resulting from the impact of different threats onto target materials is analyzed with a unified laboratory-scale setup.This allows deriving qualitative information on the occurring phenomenology as well as quantitative statements about the relative effects sizes as a function of target material and threat.The considered target materials are steel,aluminum,and magnesium.As threats,kinetic energy penetrator,explosively formed projectile,and shaped charge jet are used.For the investigated combinations,the measured overpressures vary by a factor of up to 5 for a variation of the material,by a factor of up to 7 for a variation of the threat,and by a factor larger than 15for a simultaneous variation of both.The obtained results as well as the experimental approach are relevant for the basic understanding of impact effects and risks due to material reactivity.The paper combines two main aims.Firstly,to provide a summary of own prior work in a coherent journal article and,secondly,to review and discuss these earlier results with a new perspective.

文摘Two-dimensional van der Waals ferromagnet Fe3GeTe2(FGT)holds a great potential for applications in spintronic devices due to its high Curie temperature,easy tunability,and excellent structural stability in air.Theoretical studies have shown that pressure,as an external parameter,significantly affects its ferromagnetic properties.In this study,we have performed comprehensive high-pressure neutron powder diffraction(NPD)experiments on FGT up to 5 GPa to investigate the evolution of its structural and magnetic properties with hydrostatic pressure.The NPD data clearly reveal the robustness of the ferromagnetism in FGT,despite of an apparent suppression by hydrostatic pressure.As the pressure increases from 0 to 5 GPa,the Curie temperature is found to decrease monotonically from 225(5)K to 175(5)K,together with a dramatically suppressed ordered moment of Fe,which is well supported by the first-principles calculations.Although no pressure-driven structural phase transition is observed up to 5 GPa,quantitative analysis on the changes of bond lengths and bond angles indicates a significant modification of the exchange interactions,which accounts for the pressure-induced suppression of the ferromagnetism in FGT.

文摘In this paper,a type of reinforcing structure for composite shell with single and through hole is presented.The experimental tests for the composite shells without hole,with single hole and reinforced structure,with through hole and reinforced structure subjected to hydrostatic pressure were carried out by the designed experimental test system.The mechanical responses of the composite shells under hydrostatic pressure are obtained by the high-speed camera and strain measurement.The results show that the entire deformation process of the shell can be divided into three:uniform compression,"buckling mode formation"and buckling.The"buckling mode formation"process is captured and reported for the first time.For the composite shell with single hole,the proposed reinforcing structure has a significant reinforcement effect on the shell and the buckling capacity of the shell is not weaker than the complete composite shell.For the composite shell with through hole,sealing effect can be achieved by the proposed reinforcing structure,but the buckling capacity of the shell after reinforcement can only reach 77%of the original buckling capacity.

文摘The underwater anechoic coating technology,which considers pressure resistance and low-frequency broadband sound absorption,has become a research hotspot in underwater acoustics and has received wide attention to address the increasingly advanced low-frequency sonar detection technology and adapt to the working environment of underwater vehicles in deep submergence.One the one hand,controlling low-frequency sound waves in water is more challenging than in air.On the other hand,in addition to initiating structural deformation,hydrostatic pressure also changes material parameters,both of which have a major effect on the sound absorption performance of the anechoic coating.Therefore,resolving the pressure resistance and acoustic performance of underwater acoustic coatings is difficult.Particularly,a bottleneck problem that must be addressed in this field is the acoustic structure design with low-frequency broadband sound absorption under high hydrostatic pressure.Based on the influence of hydrostatic pressure on underwater anechoic coatings,the research status of underwater acoustic structures under hydrostatic pressure from the aspects of sound absorption mechanisms,analysis methods,and structural designs is reviewed in this paper.Finally,the challenges and research trends encountered by underwater anechoic coating technology under hydrostatic pressure are summarized,providing a reference for the design and research of low-frequency broadband anechoic coating.

文摘The anchoring capacity of the anchor cable is closely related to the bonding length and radial pressure conditions.Through field pull-out tests,theoretical analysis,numerical simulation,and industrial tests,this study clarifies the relationship between radial pressure and bonding length for the ultimate pullout force and reveals the microscopic failure process of the resin-rock interface in the anchoring system.The results show that the ultimate load increases with the increase of bonding length in three different stages:rapid,slow,and uniform growth.The new mechanical model developed considering radial pressure describes the inverse relationship between radial pressure and the plastic zone on the bonding section,and quantifies the reinforcing effect of confining pressure on the anchoring force.During the pull-out process of the anchor cable,the generation of failure cracks is in the order of orifice,bottom,and middle of the hole.Radial pressure can effectively enhance the ultimate pull-out force,alleviate the oscillation increase of pull-out force,and inhibit resin cracking,but will produce an external crushing zone.It also reveals the synergistic effect between bonding length and radial pressure,and successfully carries out industrial tests of anchor cable support,which ensures the stability of the stope roof and provides an important reference for the design of anchor cable support in deep high-stress mines.

文摘Using natural gas(NG)as the primary fuel helps alleviate the fossil fuel crisis while reducing engine soot and nitrogen oxide(NO_(X))emissions.In this paper,the influences of a novel split injection concept on an NG high pressure direct injection(HPDI)engine are examined.Four typical split injection strategies,namely split pre-injection of pilot diesel(PD)and NG,split post-injection of PD and NG,split pre-injection of NG,and split post-injection of PD,were developed to investigate the influences on combustion and emissions.Results revealed that split pre injection of NG enhanced the atomization of PD,whereas the split post-injection of NG lowered the temperature in the core region of the PD spray,resulting in the deterioration of combustion.The effect of the split injection strategy on indicated thermal efficiency exceeded 7.5%.Split pre-injection was favorable to enhancing thermal efficiency,whereas split post-injection was not.Ignition delay,combustion duration,and premixed combustion time proportion were affected by injection strategies by 3.8%,50%,and 19.7%,respectively.Split pre-injection increased CH_(4) emission in the exhaust.Split post-injection,especially split post-injection of PD and NG,reduced the unburned CH_(4) emission by approximately 30%.When the split post-injection ratio was less than 30%,the trade-off between NO_(X) and soot was interrupted.The distribution range of hydroxyl radicals was expanded by pre-injection,and NO_(X) was generated in the region where the NG jet hit the wall.This paper provides valuable insights into the optimization of HPDI injection parameters.

文摘The rising flexible and intelligent electronics greatly facilitate the noninvasive and timely tracking of physiological information in telemedicine healthcare.Meticulously building bionic-sensitive moieties is vital for designing efficient electronic skin with advanced cognitive functionalities to pluralistically capture external stimuli.However,realistic mimesis,both in the skin’s three-dimensional interlocked hierarchical structures and synchronous encoding multistimuli information capacities,remains a challenging yet vital need for simplifying the design of flexible logic circuits.Herein,we construct an artificial epidermal device by in situ growing Cu_(3)(HHTP)_(2) particles onto the hollow spherical Ti_(3)C_(2)T_(x) surface,aiming to concurrently emulate the spinous and granular layers of the skin’s epidermis.The bionic Ti_(3)C_(2)T_(x)@Cu_(3)(HHTP)_(2) exhibits independent NO_(2) and pressure response,as well as novel functionalities such as acoustic signature perception and Morse code-encrypted message communication.Ultimately,a wearable alarming system with a mobile application terminal is self-developed by integrating the bimodular senor into flexible printed circuits.This system can assess risk factors related with asthmatic,such as stimulation of external NO_(2) gas,abnormal expiratory behavior and exertion degrees of fingers,achieving a recognition accuracy of 97.6%as assisted by a machine learning algorithm.Our work provides a feasible routine to develop intelligent multifunctional healthcare equipment for burgeoning transformative telemedicine diagnosis.

文摘As an extreme physical condition,high pressure serves as a potent means to substantially modify the interatomic distances and bonding patterns within condensed matter,thereby enabling the macroscopic manipulation of material properties.We employed the CALYPSO method to predict the stable structures of RbB_(2)C_(4)across the pressure range from 0 GPa to 100 GPa and investigated its physical properties through first-principles calculations.Specially,we found four novel structures,namely,P6_(3)/mcm-,Amm2-,P1-,and I4/mmm-RbB_(2)C_(4).Under pressure conditions,electronic structure calculations reveal that all of them exhibit metallic characteristics.The calculation results of formation enthalpy show that the P6_(3)/mcm structure can be synthesized within the pressure range of 0–40 GPa.Specially,the Amm2,P1,and I4/mmm structures can be synthesized above 4 GPa,6 GPa,10 GPa,respectively.Moreover,the estimated Vickers hardness value of I4/mmm-RbB_(2)C_(4)compound is 47 GPa,suggesting that it is a superhard material.Interestingly,this study uncovers the continuous transformation of the crystal structure of RbB_(2)C_(4)from a layered configuration to folded and tubular forms,ultimately attaining a stabilized cage-like structure under the pressure span of 0–100 GPa.The application of pressure offers a formidable impetus for the advancement and innovation in condensed matter physics,facilitating the exploration of novel states and functions of matter.

文摘Wearable pressure sensors capable of adhering comfortably to the skin hold great promise in sound detection.However,current intelligent speech assistants based on pressure sensors can only recognize standard languages,which hampers effective communication for non-standard language people.Here,we prepare an ultralight Ti_(3)C_(2)T_(x)MXene/chitosan/polyvinylidene difluoride composite aerogel with a detection range of 6.25 Pa-1200 k Pa,rapid response/recovery time,and low hysteresis(13.69%).The wearable aerogel pressure sensor can detect speech information through the throat muscle vibrations without any interference,allowing for accurate recognition of six dialects(96.2%accuracy)and seven different words(96.6%accuracy)with the assistance of convolutional neural networks.This work represents a significant step forward in silent speech recognition for human–machine interaction and physiological signal monitoring.

文摘In resonance with the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant accident lesson, a novel fuel design to enhance safety regarding severe accident scenarios has become increasingly appreciated in the nuclear power industry. This research focuses on analysis of the neutronic properties of a silicon carbide(SiC) cladding fuel assembly, which provides a greater safety margin as a type of accident-tolerant fuel for pressurized water reactors. The general physical performance of SiC cladding is explored to ascertain its neutronic performance. The neutron spectrum, accumulation of ^(239)Pu, physical characteristics,temperature reactivity coefficient, and power distribution are analyzed. Furthermore, the influences of a burnable poison rod and enrichment are explored. SiC cladding assemblies show a softer neutron spectrum and flatter power distribution than conventional Zr alloy cladding fuel assemblies. Lower enrichment fuel is required when SiC cladding is adopted. However, the positive reactivity coefficient associated with the SiC material remains to be offset. The results reveal that SiC cladding assemblies show broad agreement with the neutronic performance of conventional Zr alloy cladding fuel. In the meantime, its unique physical characteristics can lead to improved safety and economy.
文摘The study of scale up for the oxidative coupling of methane (OCM) has been carried out in a 200 ml stainless steel fixed-bed reactor over a 5wt% Na2WO4-1.9wt% Mn/SiO2 (W-Mn/SiO2) catalyst. The effects of reaction conditions were investigated in detail. The results showed that, with increasing reaction temperature, the gas-phase reaction was enhanced and a significant amount of methane was converted into COx; with the CH4/O2 molar ratio of 5, the highest C2 (ethylene and ethane) yield of 25% was achieved; the presence of steam (as diluent) had a positive effect on the C2 selectivity and yield. Under lower methane gaseous hourly space velocity (GHSV), higher selectivity and yield of C2 were obtained as the result of the decrease of released heat energy. In 100 h reaction time, the C2 selectivity of 66%-61% and C2 yield of 24.2%-25.4% were achieved by a single pass without any significant loss in catalytic performance.

文摘Recently, Fischer-Tropsch synthesis (FTS) has become an interesting technology because of its potential role in producing biofuels via Biomass- to-Liquids (BTL) processes. In Fischer-Tropsch (FT) section, biomass-derived syngas, mainly composed of a mixture of carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrogen (H2), is converted into various forms of hydrocarbon products over a catalyst at specified temperature and pressure. Fixed-bed reactors are typically used for these processes as conventional FT reactors. The fixed-bed or packed-bed type reactor has its drawbacks, which are heat transfer limitation, i.e. a hot spot problem involved highly exothermic characteristics of FT reaction, and mass transfer limitation due to the condensation of liquid hydrocarbon products occurred on catalyst surface. This work is initiated to develop a new chemical reactor design in which a better distribution of gaseous reactants and hydrocarbon products could be achieved, and led to higher throughput and conversion. The main goal of the research is the enhancement of a fixed-bed reactor, focusing on the application of KenicsTM static mixer insertion in the tubular packed-bed reactor. Two FTS experiments were carried out using two reactors i.e., with and without static mixer insertion within catalytic beds. The modeled syngas used was a mixed gas composed of H2/CO in 2 : 1 molar ratio that was fed at the rate of 30 mL(STP)·min^- 1 (GHSV ≈ 136 mL·gcat^-1 ·h^-1) into the fixed Ru supported aluminum catalyst bed of weight 13.3 g. The reaction was carried out at 180 ℃ and atmospheric pressure continuously for 36 h for both experiments. Both transient and steady-state conversions (in terms of time on stream) were reported. The results revealed that the steady-state CO conversion for the case using the static mixer was approximately 3.5 times higher than that of the case without static mixer. In both cases, the values of chain growth probability of hydrocarbon products (α) for Fischer-Tropsch synthesis were 0.92 and 0.89 for the case with and without static mixer, respectively.

文摘A study of reaction mechanisms and chemical kinetics of pressurized pyrolysis of Chinese Liushuhe oil shale in the presence of water were conducted using an autoclave for simulating and modeling in-situ underground thermal degradation.It was found that the oil shale was first pyrolyzed to form pyrobitumen,shale oil,shale gas and residue,then the pyrobitumen was further pyrolyzed to form more shale oil,shale gas,and residue.It means that there are two consecutive and parallel reactions.With increasing temperature,the pyrobitumen yield,as intermediate,first reached a maximum,then decreased to approximately zero.The kinetics results show that both these reactions are first order.The activation energy of pyrobitumen formation from oil shale is lower than that of shale oil formation from pyrobitumen.

文摘The kagome metals AV_(3)Sb_(5)(A=K,Rb,Cs)under ambient pressure exhibit an unusual charge order,from which superconductivity emerges.In this work,by applying hydrostatic pressure using a liquid pressure medium and carrying out electrical resistance measurements for RbV_(3)Sb_(5),we find that the charge order becomes suppressed under a modest pressure pc(1.4 GPa<pc<1.6 GPa),while the superconducting transition temperature Tc is maximized.Tc is then gradually weakened with further increase of pressure and reaches a minimum around 14.3 GPa,before exhibiting another{maximum}around 22.8 GPa,signifying the presence of a second superconducting dome.Distinct normal state resistance anomalies are found to be associated with the second superconducting dome,similar to KV_(3)Sb_(5).Our findings point to qualitatively similar temperature-pressure phase diagrams in KV_(3)Sb_(5) and RbV_(3)Sb_(5),{and suggest a close link}between the second superconducting dome and the high-pressure resistance anomalies.

文摘Deep coalbed methane(DCBM),an unconventional gas reservoir,has undergone significant advancements in recent years,sparking a growing interest in assessing pore pressure dynamics within these reservoirs.While some production data analysis techniques have been adapted from conventional oil and gas wells,there remains a gap in the understanding of pore pressure generation and evolution,particularly in wells subjected to large-scale hydraulic fracturing.To address this gap,a novel technique called excess pore pressure analysis(EPPA)has been introduced to the coal seam gas industry for the first time to our knowledge,which employs dual-phase flow principles based on consolidation theory.This technique focuses on the generation and dissipation for excess pore-water pressure(EPWP)and excess pore-gas pressure(EPGP)in stimulated deep coal reservoirs.Equations have been developed respectively and numerical solutions have been provided using the finite element method(FEM).Application of this model to a representative field example reveals that excess pore pressure arises from rapid loading,with overburden weight transferred under undrained condition due to intense hydraulic fracturing,which significantly redistributes the weight-bearing role from the solid coal structure to the injected fluid and liberated gas within artificial pores over a brief timespan.Furthermore,field application indicates that the dissipation of EPWP and EPGP can be actually considered as the process of well production,where methane and water are extracted from deep coalbed methane wells,leading to consolidation for the artificial reservoirs.Moreover,history matching results demonstrate that the excess-pressure model established in this study provides a better explanation for the declining trends observed in both gas and water production curves,compared to conventional practices in coalbed methane reservoir engineering and petroleum engineering.This research not only enhances the understanding of DCBM reservoir behavior but also offers insights applicable to production analysis in other unconventional resources reliant on hydraulic fracturing.
