Dynamic network analytics for recommending scientific collaborators

Collaboration is one of the most important contributors to scientific advancement and a crucial aspect of an academic’s career. However, the explosion in academic publications has, for some time, been making it more challenging to find suitable research partners. Recommendation approaches to help academics find potential collaborators are not new. However, the existing methods operate on static data, which can render many suggestions less useful or out of date. The approach presented in this paper simulates a dynamic network from static data to gain further insights into the changing research interests, activities and co-authorships of scholars in a field–all insights that can improve the quality of the recommendations produced. Following a detailed explanation of the entire framework, from data collection through to recommendation modelling, we provide a case study on the field of information science to demonstrate the reliability of the proposed method, and the results provide empirical insights to support decision-making in related stakeholders—e.g., scientific funding agencies, research institutions and individual researchers in the field.

     

Adsorption of polyvinyl alcohol from wastewater by sintered porous red mud

Several types of red mud-based porous materials (RMPM) and other raw minerals via different processes were prepared and characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD) analyses and scanning electron microscope (SEM) observations. Using the polymer sponge method, a 72% apparent porosity could be reached compared with 64% by adding a pore-forming agent. These materials were tested for their adsorption of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) from simulated textile wastewater. The best mass ratio of RMPM to PVA solution was 50:100 with a removal maximum of 25.8% after they were in contact for 50 min. The adsorption rate and kinetics could be better described by Lagergren's pseudo-second-order model in comparison with the pseudo-first-order model.

基于RPRG+ICCD与RANSAC的多分量多项式相位信号参数估计

多分量多项式相位信号的检测和参数估计是多项式相位信号处理的一大难点。时频分析方法能够通过时频分布表征多项式相位信号的瞬时频率,通过对提取的瞬时频率进行多项式拟合得到其系数,经过简单的变换即可获得多项式相位信号的参数。文中利用RPRG+ICCD分离多分量多项式相位信号得到各个分量的瞬时频率,再使用RANSAC进行多项式拟合,最终实现了多项式相位信号的参数估计。实验结果表明,文中提出的方法能够实现在时频域部分重叠的多分量多项式相位信号的分离和参数估计。

电磁散射与辐射问题中的混合基函数矩量法

三维散射与辐射问题通常采用电场积分方程(EFIE)结合矩量法(MoM)求解，而基函数是决定矩量法精度和效率的重要因素。本文针对采用三角形网格剖分会引起未知元过多而采用四边形网格剖分会因为网格质量变差而影响计算精度的问题，提出一种基于三角形与四边形混合网格的混合基函数，应用于散射体RCS和天线阻抗特性计算。结果表明，相比于三角形剖分，混合基函数能够在减少未知元个数的同时获得较高的精度；另外也解决了基于单纯四边形网格的基函数在网格质量较差的情况下不能准确模拟表面电荷的问题。     

Coupling Piezocatalysis and Photocatalysis in Bi4NbO8X (X = Cl,Br) Polar Single Crystals

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) as green oxidants are of great importance for environmental and biological applications. Photocatalysis is one of the major routes for ROS evolution, which is seriously restricted by rapid charge recombination. Herein, piezocatalysis and photocatalysis (i.e., piezo–photocatalysis) are coupled to efficiently produce superoxide radicals (?O₂^?), hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂), and hydroxyl radicals (?OH) via oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), by using Bi₄NbO₈X (X = Cl, Br) single crystalline nanoplates. Significantly, the piezo‐photocatalytic process leads to the highest ORR performance of the Bi₄NbO₈Br nanoplates, exhibiting ?O₂^?, H₂O₂, and ?OH evolution rates of 98.7, 792, and 33.2 µmol g^?1 h^?1, respectively. The formation of a polarized electric field and band bending allows directional separation of charge carriers, promoting the catalytic activity. Furthermore, the reductive active sites are found enriched on all the facets in the piezo–photocatalytic process, also contributing to the ORR. By piezo–photodeposition of Pt to artificially plant reductive reactive sites, the Bi₄NbO₈Br plates demonstrate largely enhanced photocatalytic H₂ production activity with a rate of 203.7 µmol g^?1 h^?1. The present work advances piezo–photocatalysis as a new route for ROS generation, but also discloses the potential of piezo–photocatalytic active sites enriching for H₂ evolution.
