塔里木盆地塔西南坳陷柯东构造带甫沙4井原油来源及充注过程

甫沙4井位于塔里木盆地塔西南坳陷昆仑山前冲断带的柯东构造带上，北部和东部分别发育有柯克亚和柯东1井油气田。为研究甫沙4井原油来源与充注过程，对原油样品和连续抽提后的含油砂样各组分（游离态、束缚态、包裹体）进行GC、GC?MS和 GC?IRMS分析，与柯克亚凝析油气田油样进行油—油对比。结果表明：甫沙4井晚期充注原油组分具有C_29?32重排藿烷、重排甾烷和Ts相对含量高，C_27?29甾烷ααα 20R分布呈反“L”型，以及正构烷烃单体碳同位素值较低等特征，与柯克亚凝析油气田来源于二叠系普司格组（P_2?3p）烃源岩的主体原油（I类）地球化学特征一致。而早期充注的原油组分具有重排藿烷、重排甾烷和Ts相对含量较低，C_27?29甾烷ααα 20R分布呈“V”型，以及正构烷烃单体碳同位素值较高等特征，与柯克亚凝析油气田来源于中—下侏罗统湖相泥岩的II类原油地球化学特征一致。甫沙4井经历3个阶段成藏过程：①在上新世，二叠系烃源岩于生油晚期阶段生成的I类原油运移至柯克亚构造带或柯东构造带深部形成油藏；②在更新世早期，侏罗系烃源岩于生油早—中期生成的II类原油运移至甫沙4井白垩系储层；③在第四纪，强烈的构造作用使深部I类原油沿断裂调整进入甫沙4井白垩系储层。最终造成甫沙4井白垩系储层II类原油先充注，I类原油后充注的特殊现象。     

A 6-DOF humanoid wall-climbing robot with flexible adsorption feet based on negative pressure suction

A wide range of dangerous and special tasks have witnessed the applications of wall-climbing robots, but they still cannot adapt well torough or sloping walls. This paper proposes a 6-DOF (degree of freedom) humanoid wall-climbing robot (HWCR) based on the principle of negative pressure suction. HWCR has the advantages of flexible adsorption feet, strong adaptability, strong anti-subversion performance, and high friction to the wall. We deduce mechanics formulas and carry out a parametric design of the foot structure so that it can meet the requirement of robot wall climbing. We use Fluent to analyze the flow field of the adsorption foot and determine the motor speed that can provide a reliable adsorption force. Using the D-H matrix to plan gait, we also design a compound cycloid-based foot trajectory to reduce the impact between the HWCR and the wall. Experiments on the uneven wall and sloping wall show that the vehicle can walk with an ideal gait, and the resistance value of the servo on each joint is much lower than the critical value, which ensures the smooth movement of the HWCR.     

Compound surfactant-based emulsion method for the preparation of high-porosity alumina microspheres

Porous alumina microspheres have attracted significant attention owing to their high mechanical strength and excellent chemical and thermal stability. The emulsion method is considered as a simple and controllable method for the preparation of inorganic microspheres. However, preparing alumina microspheres with the emulsion method is challenging because the emulsification of the precursor is inhibited by the rapid hydrolysis of aluminum alkoxide. Herein, we report a new emulsion method for the preparation of high-porosity alumina microspheres using a combination of ionic and non-ionic surfactants; in this method, the compound surfactants act as a template agent to guide aluminum alkoxide to form a lamellar structure through self-assembly. The decomposition of the templating agent and transformation of the alumina crystal at a high temperature result in structural collapse and formation of lamellar pores. Compound surfactants increased the spheroidization rate of the emulsion from 47% to 63% after hydrolysis, whereas the particle size was decreased by almost half. Additionally, the morphology and porosity of the alumina microspheres were changed. With increasing anionic surfactant content, the porosity increased initially and then decreased. The porosity of the alumina microspheres reached a maximum value of 76% at the 1:1 mass ratio of the non-ionic to anionic surfactants. Heat treatment was found to change the size of lamellar pores, with the pore diameter reaching maximum value at 1300 °C. The compound surfactants also increased the compressive stress and specific surface area of the porous alumina microspheres.     

Casting methods for the production of rotationally symmetric copper bimetals

ABSTRACT

Multiple-material products are characterised by a complex property profile which is achieved by combining the particular advantages of at least two different materials. Bimetal casting is an energy- and material-efficient technology for the production of multi-metallic objects. This paper describes the development of a semi-continuous casting process for the formation of a rotationally symmetric bimetal with a cohesive bonding character at the interface of a copper–tin alloy (CuSn6) and pure copper (Cu99.5). Initial experiments are conducted by static casting to evaluate the thermal process window. Based on the results of the initial experiments, a vertical semi-continuous compound casting process is developed. A stable cohesive bond between the joining partners is accomplished by forming a solid solution at the interface.

Case history on failure of a 67 M tall reinforced soil slope

Construction of this 67 m high RSS was completed in December 2006. After seven years in-service, a tension crack was observed at the top of the slope. In March 2015 this RSS structure catastrophically collapsed. This RSS structure collapsed in a compound failure mode; as the failure plane passed beneath, partially behind, and partially through the reinforced soil mass. The failure plane beneath the RSS was along a shale-claystone interface. The failure surface partially behind the RSS was along sandstone bedrock with water-seeping bedding planes dipping out of the rock mass. The failure surface through the upper portion of the RSS is where the geogrid reinforcement was overwhelmed by stresses originating from underlying deformation. The RSS collapse occurred after 8.3 years in-service as the shear strength along the shale-claystone interface decreased and approached the fully softened strength. The primary causative factors of this failure are: (i) an insufficient subsurface investigation program and interpretation of data for design and detailing; (ii) insufficient specifications and construction plan details for both foundation preparation and rock backcut benching; (iii) insufficient foundation preparation and rock backcut benching during construction; and (iv) adaptations to the design made during construction.     

Two-State Reactivity: Personal Recounting of its Conception and Future Prospects

This essay tells the story of the conception of the Two-State Reactivity (TSR) notion. Since scientific career is part of life's flow, the story blends sub-stories of scientific colleagues and events. This is also a story of a beguiling paradigm, which has started from a puzzling reactivity of the diatomic oxidant FeO⁺, has continued to larger oxidants, like the active species of Cytochrome P450 and of nonheme enzymes, and its extension to reductive processes. Finally, the essay discusses prospects of experimental probing of the reactive spin-state, and of the transition state constitution for these reactions by means of tunneling-augmented kinetic isotope effects.
