PVDF压电纤维仿生柔性传感器水下传感特性研究

感知器官对于许多动物必不可少,尤其是生活在水下的生物。该文以聚偏二氟乙烯(PVDF)为材料,模仿水生动物海豹的触须设计制备了一种表面四电极PVDF压电纤维仿生柔性传感器。利用激振源测试所制备的传感器性能,包括输出不同的波形测试对不同激励的感知,对水动力的感知及对水下运动物体方向的感知。实验结果表明,该传感器对不同激励的感知性能很好,速度检测极限可达0.15 mm/s,且有良好的方向性检测能力,对水下情况感知的应用前景广。     

基于改进灰狼优化算法的服务功能链映射算法

随着工业互联网、车联网、元宇宙等新型互联网应用的兴起，网络的低时延、可靠性、安全性、确定性等方面的需求正面临严峻挑战。采用网络功能虚拟化技术在虚拟网络部署过程中，存在服务功能链映射效率低与部署资源开销大等问题，联合考虑节点激活成本、实例化开销，以最小化平均部署网络成本为优化目标建立了整数线性规划模型，提出基于改进灰狼优化算法的服务功能链映射（improved grey wolf optimization based service function chain mapping，IMGWO-SFCM）算法。该算法在标准灰狼优化算法基础上添加了基于无环K最短路径（K shortest path，KSP）问题算法的映射方案搜索、映射方案编码以及基于反向学习与非线性收敛改进三大策略，较好地平衡了其全局搜索及局部搜索能力，实现服务功能链映射方案的快速确定。仿真结果显示，该算法在保证更高的服务功能链请求接受率下，相较于对比算法降低了11.86%的平均部署网络成本。     

Simultaneous fractionation of multiple classes of polyphenols from honeybush tea using solid-phase extraction

The structural diversity of polyphenols and the inherent limitations of current extraction techniques pose a challenge to extract polyphenols using a simple and green method. Hence, in this study, a method was developed to simultaneously fractionate multiple classes of polyphenols by only varying ethanol-water solutions. Honeybush tea, which is rich in polyphenols, was selected as a model for this study. Solvent extraction followed by solid-phase extraction (SPE) was developed to obtain a polyphenol-rich fraction from six honeybush samples. Based on a gradient elution programme (10%, 30%, 50%, 70% and 90% (v/v) ethanol-water solution) of SPE, the Strata X cartridge showed a better recovery of most targeted polyphenols under 0.9 mL of the drying volume and 1 mL min⁻¹ of the dispensing speed. The elution programme for fractionating most polyphenols was as follows: single elution with 50% ethanol, followed by twice elution with 70% ethanol. The antioxidant capacity was used to analyse the differences among the polyphenol-rich fractions from six honeybush samples. Principal component analysis (PCA) revealed that unfermented C. genistoides (GG) has the greatest antioxidant capacity among the honeybush species studied. Additionally, mangiferin, isomangiferin and vicenin-2 were the main contributors to the antioxidant capacity in six honeybush fractions according to the correlation study.     

ZnCo2O4纳米管的合成及其电化学性能研究

采用静电纺丝法制备ZnCo₂O₄一维纳米纤维前驱体，通过不同的煅烧温度得到纤维结构完整的ZnCo₂O₄纳米管。通过XRD、SEM和电化学测试等方法对ZnCo₂O₄材料进行结构和性能表征。研究结果表明，制备的纳米纤维直径在0.13～0.22μm之间，且纤维结构完整，表面粗糙，有利于电解液的渗透和储存。在100 mA/g的条件下，ZnCo₂O₄的首次可逆比容量达到972.9 mAh/g，循环200次后，比容量仍能保持431.2 mAh/g以上。
