纳米Ag包覆Bi_2O_3颗粒的制备及其可见光催化性能评价

本文采用两步合成工艺,通过化学共沉淀工艺制备β-Bi_2O_3纳米颗粒;经室温原位还原硝酸银,制备不同包覆量纳米Ag负载的Bi_2O_3(Ag/β-Bi_2O_3)光催化剂颗粒。对该光催化剂进行结构表征,并以甲基橙溶液模拟废水在可见光下评价其光催化性能。透射电子显微镜(TEM)测试表明纳米Ag均匀包覆于β-Bi_2O_3颗粒表面,其中β-Bi_2O_3聚集体的颗粒尺寸约30nm,而分散的纳米Ag晶体约为20nm。紫外可见光谱(UV-vis)谱图表明Ag/β-Bi_2O_3复合材料的带隙能比纯相Bi_2O_3要小,对可见光利用率相应增加,光催化性能随之增强。其中以2.0%(质量比)Ag包覆β-Bi_2O_3颗粒的光催化性能最佳。     

Sound Absorption Performance and Mechanism of Aluminum Foams with Double Main Pore-Porous Cell Wall Structure

To enhance the sound absorption performance of open-cell aluminum foam, the double main pores-porous cell walls (DMP-PCW) aluminum foams via infiltration casting of preforms mixed with two sizes of NaCl particles are prepared. The pore structure, sound absorption performance, and mechanism of DMP-PCW aluminum foam are investigated. The pore structure consists of double-sized main pores similar to the NaCl particles and the cell wall pores formed by the connections between NaCl particles. It is found that the static flow resistivity of DMP-PCW aluminum foam reaches an optimum value of 28105 Pa.s m⁻² when the volume proportion of small main pores increases, the size of cell wall pores decreases, and the number of cell wall pores per unit main pore surface area (NPPA) increases. At 800–6300 Hz, the average absorption coefficient is 0.89. In addition, the Wilson model predicts the sound absorption properties of DMP-PCW aluminum foam. The predicted values agree well with the measured values. The finite-element acoustic simulations and dynamic viscous-thermal permeability calculations reveal that the improved sound absorption performance of DMP-PCW aluminum foam is correlated to the enhanced sound transmission caused by increased NPPA and increased viscous-thermal loss due to the double main pore structure.     

Controlling electroosmotic flow by polymer coating: a dissipative particle dynamics study

We have performed dissipative particle dynamics (DPDs) simulations of electroosmotic flow (EOF) through a polymer-grafted nanopore. In this model, charged particles including salt ions and counterions are not included explicitly, and EOF is created using an effective boundary condition. The screening effect of polymer layer on EOF is investigated in detail under different solvent qualities and boundary electroosmotic velocities. Results show that the solvent quality has a significant effect on the conformational properties of polymer chains and the flow characteristics of the solvent. The polymer layer undergoes a collapsed transition when decreasing the solvent quality from good to poor. Under different solvent qualities, enhancing the EOF leads to a different variation tendency of the layer thickness. The solvent-induced permeability change is inconsistent with the steady velocity away from the surface. The minimum value of the solvent permeability occurs at an intermediate solvent quality. However, the layer thickness drops gradually to a smallest value (corresponding to the largest effective pore radius) in the poor solvent condition. It is also found that the polymer inclination and stretching length exhibit a complex behavior under the combined effect of solvent quality and electroosmosis-induced shear.     

Fast structural optimization with frequency constraints by genetic algorithm using adaptive eigenvalue reanalysis methods

Structural optimization with frequency constraints is highly nonlinear dynamic optimization problems. Genetic algorithm (GA) has greater advantage in global optimization for nonlinear problem than optimality criteria and mathematical programming methods, but it needs more computational time and numerous eigenvalue reanalysis. To speed up the design process, an adaptive eigenvalue reanalysis method for GA-based structural optimization is presented. This reanalysis technique is derived primarily on the Kirsch’s combined approximations method, which is also highly accurate for case of repeated eigenvalues problem. The required number of basis vectors at every generation is adaptively determined and the rules for selecting initial number of basis vectors are given. Numerical examples of truss design are presented to validate the reanalysis-based frequency optimization. The results demonstrate that the adaptive eigenvalue reanalysis affects very slightly the accuracy of the optimal solutions and significantly reduces the computational time involved in the design process of large-scale structures.
