This problem is studied using theoretical analysis, numerical simulation, and experimental study. In the train-bridge dynamic interaction system proposed in this paper, the train vehicle model is established by the rigid-body dynamics method, the bridge model is established by the finite element method, and the wheelail vertical and lateral interaction are simulated by the corresponding assumption and the Kalker linear creep theory, respectively. Track irregularity, structure deformation, wind load, collision load, structural damage, foundation scouring, and earthquake action are regarded as the excitation for the system. The train-bridge dynamic interaction system is solved by inter-history iteration. A case study of the dynamic response of a CRH380BL high-speed train running through a standard-design bridge in China is discussed. The dynamic responses of the vehicle and of the bridge subsystems are obtained for speeds ranging from 200 km-b-1 to 400 km.h-1, and the vibration mechanism are analyzed.展开更多

In this paper, this model was validated by comparing the simulation results with the experiment results ( both the spring force and the deformed profile of the motional cable harness). In the experiment, a special optical measuring instrument based on binocular vision was developed and the motion and deformation of cable harness were measured. A simpli- fied stabilized platform system was constructed, and the absolute value of spring disturbance force during the motion of this simplified frame was obtained by using a force gauge (0. 02 N precision). The physical parameters of experimental specimen were also measured. The experimental and simulated results showed good agreement. These results should be useful for better motional cable harness layout design and reliable evaluation of the spring disturbance torque.展开更多

摘要Influenza is an acute viral respiratory infection that has caused high morbidity and mortality worldwide.Influenza A virus(IAV)has been found to activate multiple programmed cell death pathways,including ferroptosis.Ferroptosis is a novel form of programmed cell death in which the accumulation of intracellular iron promotes lipid peroxidation,leading to cell death.However,little is known about how influenza viruses induce ferroptosis in the host cells.In this study,based on network pharmacology,we predicted the mechanism of action of Maxing Shigan decoction(MXSGD)in IAV-induced ferroptosis,and found that this process was related to biological processes,cellular components,molecular function and multiple signaling pathways,where the hypoxia inducible factor-1(HIF-1)signaling pathway plays a significant role.Subsequently,we constructed the mouse lung epithelial(MLE-12)cell model by IAV-infected in vitro cell experiments,and revealed that IAV infection induced cellular ferroptosis that was characterized by mitochondrial damage,increased reactive oxygen species(ROS)release,increased total iron and iron ion contents,decreased expression of ferroptosis marker gene recombinant glutathione peroxidase 4(GPX4),increased expression of acyl-CoA synthetase long chain family member 4(ACSL4),and enhanced activation of hypoxia inducible factor-1α(HIF-1α),induced nitric oxide synthase(iNOS)and vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)in the HIF-1 signaling pathway.Treatment with MXSGD effectively reduced intracellular viral load,while reducing ROS,total iron and ferrous ion contents,repairing mitochondrial results and inhibiting the expression of cellular ferroptosis and the HIF-1 signaling pathway.Finally,based on animal experiments,it was found that MXSGD effectively alleviated pulmonary congestion,edema and inflammation in IAV-infected mice,and inhibited the expression of ferroptosis-related protein and the HIF-1 signaling pathway in lung tissues.

摘要The train-bridge dynamic interaction problem began with the development of railway technology, and requires an evaluation method for bridge design in order to ensure the safety and stability of the bridge and the running train. This problem is studied using theoretical analysis, numerical simulation, and experimental study. In the train-bridge dynamic interaction system proposed in this paper, the train vehicle model is established by the rigid-body dynamics method, the bridge model is established by the finite element method, and the wheelail vertical and lateral interaction are simulated by the corresponding assumption and the Kalker linear creep theory, respectively. Track irregularity, structure deformation, wind load, collision load, structural damage, foundation scouring, and earthquake action are regarded as the excitation for the system. The train-bridge dynamic interaction system is solved by inter-history iteration. A case study of the dynamic response of a CRH380BL high-speed train running through a standard-design bridge in China is discussed. The dynamic responses of the vehicle and of the bridge subsystems are obtained for speeds ranging from 200 km-b-1 to 400 km.h-1, and the vibration mechanism are analyzed.

摘要Deep foundations are currently used in engineering practice to solve problems caused by weak geotechnical characteristics of the ground.Impact pile driving is an interesting and viable solution from economic and technical points of view.However,it is necessary to ensure that the environmental drawbacks,namely ground-borne vibration,are adequately met.For this purpose,the authors propose an axisymmetric finite element method-perfectly matched layer(FEM-PML)approach,where the nonlinear behavior of the soil is addressed through an equivalent linear methodology.Given the complexity of the problem,an experimental test site was developed and fully characterized.The experimental work comprised in-situ and laboratory soil characterization,as well as the measurement of vibrations induced during pile driving.The comparison between experimental and numerical results demonstrated a very good agreement,from which it can be concluded that the proposed numerical approach is suitable for the prediction of vibrations induced by impact pile driving.The experimental database is available as supplemental data and may be used by other researchers in the validation of their prediction models.

摘要This paper aims to present the configuration design approach and the energy management strategy (EMS) of a series-parallel hybrid electric transit bus (SPHEB) jointly developed by Shanghai Automotive Industry Co. Ltd. (SAIC) and Shanghai Jiao Tong University (SJTU), China. A major feature of this SPHEB is that a novel manual transmission is designed to switch the powertrain configuration between series and parallel types. To reduce the fuel consumption as well as sustain the battery state of charge, an EMS including seven energy flow modes is designed and applied to this SPHEB. Governed by this EMS, the engine is maintained to operate in high efficiency regions. The experimental test carded on the transit bus city driving cycle is described and analyzed. The experimental results demonstrate the technical feasibility and fuel economy of this approach.

摘要To analyze the spring disturbance torque caused by motionai cable harness in a stabilized platform, the Kirchhoff theory based cable harness model has been previously developed to dynamically simulate the motional cable harness. In this paper, this model was validated by comparing the simulation results with the experiment results ( both the spring force and the deformed profile of the motional cable harness). In the experiment, a special optical measuring instrument based on binocular vision was developed and the motion and deformation of cable harness were measured. A simpli- fied stabilized platform system was constructed, and the absolute value of spring disturbance force during the motion of this simplified frame was obtained by using a force gauge (0. 02 N precision). The physical parameters of experimental specimen were also measured. The experimental and simulated results showed good agreement. These results should be useful for better motional cable harness layout design and reliable evaluation of the spring disturbance torque.

摘要A tracking stability control problem for the vertical electric stabilization system of moving tank based on adaptive robust servo control is addressed.This paper mainly focuses on two types of possibly fast timevarying but bounded uncertainty within the vertical electric stabilization system:model parameter uncertainty and uncertain nonlinearity.First,the vertical electric stabilization system is constructed as an uncertain nonlinear dynamic system that can reflect the practical mechanics transfer process of the system.Second,the dynamical equation in the form of state space is established by designing the angular tracking error.Third,the comprehensive parameter of system uncertainty is designed to estimate the most conservative effects of uncertainty.Finally,an adaptive robust servo control which can effectively handle the combined effects of complex nonlinearity and uncertainty is proposed.The feasibility of the proposed control strategy under the practical physical condition is validated through the tests on the experimental platform.This paper pioneers the introduction of the internal nonlinearity and uncertainty of the vertical electric stabilization system into the settlement of the tracking stability control problem,and validates the advanced servo control strategy through experiment for the first time.
摘要To accelerate the practicality of electromagnetic railguns,it is necessary to use a combination of threedimensional numerical simulation and experiments to study the mechanism of bore damage.In this paper,a three-dimensional numerical model of the augmented railgun with four parallel unconventional rails is introduced to simulate the internal ballistic process and realize the multi-physics field coupling calculation of the rail gun,and a test experiment of a medium-caliber electromagnetic launcher powered by pulse formation network(PFN)is carried out.Various test methods such as spectrometer,fiber grating and high-speed camera are used to test several parameters such as muzzle initial velocity,transient magnetic field strength and stress-strain of rail.Combining the simulation results and experimental data,the damage condition of the contact surface is analyzed.

摘要Proteins play a critical role in biology and biopharma due to their specificity and minimal side effects.Predicting the effects of mutations on protein stability is vital but experimentally challenging.Deep learning offers an efficient solution to this problem.In the present work,we introduced ProstaNet,a deep learning framework that predicts stability changes resulting from single-and multiple-point mutations using geometric vector perceptrons-graph neural network for 3-dimensional feature processing.For training ProstaNet,we meticulously crafted ProstaDB,a comprehensive and pristine thermodynamics repository,including 3,784 single-point mutations and 1,642 multiple-point mutations.We also created thermodynamic looping for enlarging the limited data size of multiple-point mutation and applied an innovative clustering method to generate a standard testing set of multiple-point mutation.Besides,we identified residue scoring as the most important encoding method in protein properties prediction.With these innovations,ProstaNet accurately predicts thermostability changes for both single-point and multiple-point mutations without showing any bias.ProstaNet achieves an accuracy of 0.75,outperforming existing methods for single-point mutation prediction,including ThermoMPNN(0.63),PoPMuSiCsym(0.66),MUPRO(0.52),and FoldX(0.71).ProstaNet also achieves a 1.3-fold increase in accuracy compared to FoldX for multiple-point mutation predictions.Validated by experiment,4 out of 5 single-point mutation predictions(80%)and all multiple-point mutation predictions(100%)for HuJ3 mutants were accurate,demonstrating the potential benefits of ProstaNet for protein engineering and drug development.

摘要Photocatalytic CO2 reduction in gas–solid systems is a complex process that requires the integrated consideration of illumination,photocatalytic performance,and gas diffusion on the catalyst surface.Oversimplification of these factors in existing computational fluid dynamics models severely compromises their predictive capability under realistic reaction conditions.To address this limitation,this study develops a multi-mechanism kinetic model that integrates photoexcitation,Arrhenius thermal activation,Langmuir adsorption saturation,and Thiele diffusion resistance within a unified kinetic expression.Model parameters were constrained and validated using a combination of first-principles calculations and multiscale optical,spectroscopic,adsorption,and transport measurements in a tree-shaped uniform-flow reactor.Photocatalytic experiments of four distinct catalysts are then used to validate the multi-mechanism kinetic model,with R2 above 0.98.Under model-derived conditions,the operation of the tree-shaped reactor achieve an optimal conversion rate of 116.7μmol g-1h-1.The model reliably predicts the experimental rates across a wide range of operating conditions.It also accurately captures the optimal space velocity range and the promotional effect of increasing temperature.This work offers a generalizable framework for the theoretical understanding,modelling,and scale-up of photocatalytic CO2 conversion systems.

摘要In underground mining with backfill,it is essential to evaluate the minimum required strength of side-exposed backfill.An analytical solution proposed by Mitchell and coworkers in 1982 is largely used.Since 2012,Li and coworkers have published several improved solutions,accounting for several limitations in the Mitchell 1982 model.However,the improved solutions have not fully been validated by experimental results.Experimental work is necessary.As such,box instability tests were performed using an uncemented paste backfill under undrained conditions with a high aspect ratio stope.The unconfined compressive strength of the backfill was measured.Comparisons between experimental results and analytical results were made.A part of the experimental results was used to obtain the missing parameters through calibration.The other part of experimental results was then used to test the predictive capability of the calibrated analytical solutions.The results show that the improved analytical solutions provide a better agreement with the experimental results than the original Mitchell solution,at least for short-term stability of side-exposed backfill submitted to quasi-unconsolidated and undrained conditions.More experimental works are necessary to test the validity of the improved solutions under wider conditions.

摘要Accurately analyzing and predicting the dynamic characteristics of heat transfer systems is significant for improving the operating efficiency and stability of industrial and energy systems.This paper develops a novel dynamic model for heat exchangers(HXs)by defining the new concept of virtual dynamic Number of Transfer Unit(NTU)using the Fourier frequency-domain transformation.On this basis,we derive an analytical linear relationship between the inlet and outlet temperatures of the HX to directly characterize its dynamic heat transfer behavior.Moreover,the dynamic heat current models and inlet-outlet temperature relationships of series,parallel,and multi-loop HX networks are derived and provided to describe the dynamic performance.We conduct dual validation of the dynamic model's accuracy through both simulations and experiments,achieving the maximum dynamic response errors for individual HX of less than 0.6%and 0.2%,respectively.By developing a parameter identification algorithm for the heat transfer system and integrating it with a complex heat exchange network experimental system,we further verify that the maximum error in dynamic performance analysis of the heat transfer system using this dynamic model does not exceed 0.4%,thereby demonstrating its accuracy and feasibility for analyzing the dynamic characteristics of heat transfer systems.The proposed model and method can serve as a powerful tool for the accurate analysis and prediction of the dynamic characteristics of heat transfer systems.

摘要This work aims to identify ways to achieve dynamic performances of a novel double-layer vibration isolation system(DL-VIS)capable of achieving multi-directional isolation and extreme environmental adaptability.A forward modeling approach applicable to complex systems has been developed and analyses of nonlinear dynamic characteristics under different working conditions are performed.First,by integrating with constitutive models in terms of individual elastic elements and the connective relationships within the structure,multidirectional constitutive models for isolation devices are established.Further,the decomposition of linear and nonlinear stiffness components in different directions is performed using the Taylor expansion method.Subsequently,the dynamic response under sinusoidal sweep frequency loading is obtained using the related stiffnesses in the dynamic model and adopting the extended harmonic balance method.The effects of stiffness,damping,and a nonlinear stiffness gradient on the DL-VIS response are thoroughly evaluated.Finally,the vibration isolation performance and nonlinear dynamics under different working conditions are examined,and the proposed dynamic model is experimentally validated.The results indicate that the response of DL-VIS varies significantly under different working conditions,particularly under overload conditions.The nonlinear characteristics lead to wide-band instability near the natural frequency and excellent vibration attenuation performance in multiple directions.The theoretical model agrees well with the experimental results in the nonresonant region and near the first resonant peak,which proves the prediction accuracy in the low-frequency range.These findings provide robust theoretical and technical support for the design and performance optimization of isolation systems.

摘要Objective This study aimed to identify SPRR2A as a hub gene in endometrial cancer(EC)and explore its potential as a diagnostic and prognostic biomarker.Methods Bioinformatics analysis was performed on highthroughput sequencing datasets of EC cases from The Cancer Genome Atlas.Reverse-transcription-quantitative PCR validated the differential expression of SPRR2A in EC cell lines and tissues.Results Compared with normal cells and adjacent tissues,EC cells and tissues showed significantly upregulated SPRR2A expression(p<0.05).High SPRR2A expression was associated with poor prognosis in EC patients(HR=1.52,95%CI 1.00 to 2.30,p=0.048).Furthermore,the expression levels of SPRR2A varied across histological grades,being significantly lower in G1 tumours than in G2 and G3 tumours.However,no significant differences in SPRR2A expression regarding age,clinical stage,tumour invasion or histological type were found.Conclusion SPRR2A is overexpressed in EC and serves as an independent predictor of poor prognosis.It may be a potential biomarker for EC diagnosis and prognosis.Further research is needed to explore its molecular mechanisms and clinical applications.

摘要The detrimental Fe element in Al-Si cast alloy can be effectively removed by Fecontaining intermetallics separation.However,the formation temperature of Fecontaining intermetallics can be further improved to increase the removal efficiency of Fe element.The effects of the Cr/Mn atomic ratio on the stability,theoretical melting point,elastic modulus,and thermal properties were calculated with the aim of improving the stability of theα-Al(FeMnCr)Si phase.An increased Cr/Mn atomic ratio effectively increased the stability,theoretical melting point,elastic modulus,isobaric heat capacity,and reduced the volumetric thermal expansion coefficient ofα-Al(FeMnCr)Si phase,which can be explained by the strengthened Al-Cr and Si-Cr chemical bonds.The experimental study results revealed that the formation temperature and Young's modulus of theα-Al(FeMnCr)Si phase increase from 673.0°C and 228.5 GPa to 732.0°C and 272.1 GPa with the Cr/Mn atomic ratio increasing from 0.11 to 0.8,which better validates the thermodynamic stability,theoretical melting point and elastic modulus calculation results.These results provide a new strategy for designing Fecontaining intermetallics with the desired properties,which contributes to guiding the development of high-performance recycled Al-Si alloys.
