负气门叠开方式下天然气的均质压燃(HCCI)

天然气的自燃温度较高,要达到其自燃必须采用高压缩比和进气加热,另外一种方法是利用负气门叠开在缸内驻留废气,以减少所需要的进气加热量。本文采用特殊阀的策略,通过与汽油进行对比,发现在相同的发动机负荷下,天然气HCCI需要使用较迟后的气门定时,这导致缸内将截获较少量的废气,因而减小了稀释的效果,使得NOx的排放增加。     

Validation of the thermomechanical microstructural model for closed-die forging

The objective of the paper is the assessment of the predictive ability of the thermomechanical-microstructural model for the closed-die forging process. The model combines the rigid-plastic flow formulation with the finite element solution of the Fourier equation with the closed-form equations describing processes of recrystallization and grain growth. Experimental validation of the mechanical and thermal components of the model is presented in earlier publications; present work focuses on the microstructural part. Experiment includes closed-die forging of the carbon-manganese steel samples and the measurements of the grain size on the cross-sections of the forgings after the deformation. Spherical samples, which involve significant inhomogeneity of the strain and the temperature fields, have been chosen for a presentation of the results.     

Clustering of designers based on building information modeling event logs

A network‐enabled event log mining approach is proposed for a deep understanding of the Building Information Modeling (BIM)‐based collaborative design work. It proposes a novel algorithm termed node2vec‐GMM combining a graph embedding algorithm named node2vec and a clustering method named Gaussian mixture model (GMM) to cluster designers within a network into several subgroups, and then makes cluster analysis. Its superiority lies in the efficient feature learning ability to preserve network structure and the powerful clustering ability to tackle uncertainty and visualize results, which can directly return the cluster embedding. As a case study, a directional network with 68 nodes (designers) and 436 ties (design task transmissions) is constructed based on retrieved data from 4GB real BIM event logs. The node2vec learns and projects the network feature representation into a 128‐dimensional vector, which is learned by GMM to discover three possible clusters owning 15, 26, and 27 closely linked designers. Analysis of each cluster is performed from node importance measurement and link prediction to identify information spreading and designers’ roles within clusters. Our new algorithm node2vec‐GMM is proven to better improve clustering quality than other state‐of‐the‐art methods by at least 6.0% Adjusted Rand Index and 13.4% Adjusted Mutual Information. Overall, the designer clustering process provides managers with data‐driven support in both monitoring the whole course of the BIM‐based design and making reliable decisions to increase collaboration opportunities.     

Bioinspired Design of SrAl2O4:Eu2+ Phosphor

A phosphor based on Sr_0.97Al₂O₄:Eu_0.03 with a biomorphous morphology is manufactured via vacuum assisted infiltration of wood tissue (Pinus sylvestris) with a precursor nitrate solution. The nitrate solution penetrates homogeneously into the uniform arrangement of rectangular shaped tracheidal cells of the wood tissue. According to scanning electron microscopy, the original wood cell walls are completely transformed retaining the original wood structure. The major crystalline phase is monoclinic SrAl₂O₄, detected by X‐ray diffraction and confirmed by Rietveld refinement. Energy‐dispersive X‐ray analysis proves the homogeneous conversion of the original wood cell wall into Sr_0.97Al₂O₄:Eu_0.03 struts. The optical properties of the resulting phosphor material are determined by photoluminescence and cathode‐luminescence spectroscopy in scanning electron microscopy. The biotemplated Sr_0.97Al₂O₄:Eu_0.03 shows a characteristic green emission at 530 nm (2.34 eV). Shaping biomorphous SrAl₂O₄:Eu²⁺ phosphor with a microstructure pseudomorphous to the bioorganic template anatomy offers a novel approach for designing micropatterned phosphor materials.     

An atypical approach identifies TYR234 as the key base catalyst in chondroitin AC lyase

Chondroitin AC lyase from Flavobacterium heparinum catalyses the degradation of chondroitin by an anionic E1cb elimination mechanism that involves proton abstraction from C5 of glucuronic acid. The lyase also carries out efficient proton transfer to a sugar nitronate anion, which was designed originally as an inhibitor of the enzyme, with a second-order rate constant of kcat/Km=2.7x10(6) M(-1) s(-); this is very similar to that of the natural chondroitin substrate (kcat/Km=1.3x10(6) M(-1) s(-1)). Studies with this nitronate should therefore provide insight into the proton-transfer step (general base catalysis) within this mechanism. Indeed, the Tyr234Phe mutant of the enzyme was essentially inactive with the natural substrate and correspondingly did not catalyse proton transfer to the nitronate, thereby implicating this residue as the general base catalyst. Parallel studies designed to identify the acid catalyst were carried out by using a substrate with a 2,4-dinitrophenol leaving group that needs no acid assistance for departure. These results are consistent with Tyr234 also playing the role of acid catalyst. Not only do these studies confirm the suspected role of Tyr234, but also they validate a new methodology for identification of acid/base catalysts in lyases and epimerases of this type. In addition a structural and mechanistic rationale is provided for different active-site acid/base configurations in syn and anti lyases.

Vaporization of LaCrO3: Partial and Integral Thermodynamic Properties

The vaporization of LaCrO₃(s) and samples of the composition LaCrO₃+ La₂O₃ was investigated in the temperature range of 1887-2333 K by Knudsen effusion mass spectrometry using Knudsen cells made of tungsten lined completely with iridium. The species Cr(g), CrO(g ), CrO₂(g), and LaO(g) were identified in the vapor. Their partial pressures were determined by calibration with pure platinum solid. The thermodynamic activity of Cr₂O₃, a _cr2o₃ in LaCrO₃ for the Cr₂0₃-poor phase boundary of this phase was In a_Cr2o₃⁼ -(17953/T) - 0.485 (temperature T given in K) for the temperature range of the measurements with a probable overall error of ± 13%. The following values and temperature dependence of ΔG°_f,T resulted for the formation of LaCrO₃(s) according to the reaction 0.5Cr₂O₃(s) + 0.5La₂O₃(s) → LaCrO₃(s): ΔG°_f,2100= -78.9 ± 1.1 kj/mol, Δ H°_f,298= -76.8 ± 5.2 kj/mol, and ΔG°_r(kJ/mol) = -74.7 - 0.00202 T . Computations for the vaporization of LaCrO₃ were conducted to show the volatility of this material in different atmospheres at high temperatures.     

Mechanochemical synthesis,crystal structure and ion conduction in the Gd<Subscript>2</Subscript>Hf<Subscript>2−<Emphasis Type="Italic">x</Emphasis></Subscript>Ti<Subscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">x</Emphasis></Subscript>O<Subscript>7</Subscript> system

This work describes the mechanochemical synthesis, structural characterization and electrical properties of an interesting group of novel ionic conductors, with general formula Gd₂(Hf_2?x Ti _x )₂O₇. Different compositions in this system (x = 0, 0.4, 0.8, 1.2, 1.6 and 2) were obtained at room temperature, via a mechanochemical reaction between the corresponding elemental oxides, and characterized by using XRD, Raman spectroscopy and SEM. The XRD structural analysis by the Rietveld method revealed that all the Hf-containing compositions show a disordered fluorite-like structure instead of the expected pyrochlore-like atomic ordering, and the cation size mismatch criteria for pyrochlore stability. Increasing Ti content promotes a phase transformation to the pyrochlore structure with post-milling thermal treatments, which takes place in all samples on annealing at 1200 °C, except for Gd₂Hf₂O₇. These results were confirmed by Raman spectroscopy, which also suggests that the x = 0.4 sample has the highest degree of oxygen disorder in the system and that this disorder decreases with increasing Ti⁴⁺ content. Finally, all samples show the pyrochlore structure on firing at 1500 °C. Activation energies E _dc for oxygen migration were determined by using impedance spectroscopy and found to be within the ~0.9–1.2 eV range, whereas conductivity σ _dc values at 700 °C vary from 1.12 × 10^?6 to 2.75 × 10^?4 S cm^?1, with decreasing conductivity as Ti⁴⁺ content increases.
