Properties,combustion behavior,and kinetic triplets of coke produced by low-temperature oxidation and pyrolysis:Implications for heavy oil in-situ combustion

This work aimed at investigating the crucial factor in building and maintaining the combustion front during in-situ combustion(ISC),oxidized coke and pyrolyzed coke.The surface morphologies,elemental contents,and non-isothermal mass losses of the oxidized and pyrolyzed cokes were thoroughly examined.The results indicated that the oxidized coke could be combusted at a lower temperature compared to the pyrolyzed coke due primarily to their differences in the molecular polarity and microstructure.Kinetic triplets of coke combustion were determined using iso-conversional models and one advanced integral master plots method.The activation energy values of the oxidized and pyrolyzed cokes varied in the range of 130-153 k J/mol and 95-120 kJ/mol,respectively.The most appropriate reaction model of combustion of the oxidized and pyrolyzed cokes followed three-dimensional diffusion model(D_(3)) and random nucleation and subsequent growth model(F_(1)),respectively.These observations assisted in building the numerical model of these two types of cokes to simulate the ISC process.

Optical solitons supported by finite waveguide lattices with diffusive nonlocal nonlinearity

We investigate the properties of fundamental,multi-peak,and multi-peaked twisted solitons in three types of finite waveguide lattices imprinted in photorefractive media with asymmetrical diffusion nonlinearity.Two opposite soliton selfbending signals are considered for different families of solitons.Power thresholdless fundamental and multi-peaked solitons are stable in the low power region.The existence domain of two-peaked twisted solitons can be changed by the soliton self-bending signals.When solitons tend to self-bend toward the waveguide lattice,stable two-peaked twisted solitons can be found in a larger region in the middle of their existence region.Three-peaked twisted solitons are stable in the lower(upper)cutoff region for a shallow(deep)lattice depth.Our results provide an effective guidance for revealing the soliton characteristics supported by a finite waveguide lattice with diffusive nonlocal nonlinearity.

Brillouin Klein space and half-turn space in three-dimensional acoustic crystals

The Bloch band theory and Brillouin zone(BZ)that characterize wave-like behaviors in periodic mediums are two cornerstones of contemporary physics,ranging from condensed matter to topological physics.Recent theoretical breakthrough revealed that,under the projective symmetry algebra enforced by artificial gauge fields,the usual two-dimensional(2D)BZ(orientable Brillouin two-torus)can be fundamentally modified to a non-orientable Brillouin Klein bottle with radically distinct manifold topology.However,the physical consequence of artificial gauge fields on the more general three-dimensional(3D)BZ(orientable Brillouin three-torus)was so far missing.Here,we theoretically discovered and experimentally observed that the fundamental domain and topology of the usual 3D BZ can be reduced to a non-orientable Brillouin Klein space or an orientable Brillouin half-turn space in a 3D acoustic crystal with artificial gauge fields.We experimentally identify peculiar 3D momentum-space non-symmorphic screw rotation and glide reflection symmetries in the measured band structures.Moreover,we experimentally demonstrate a novel stacked weak Klein bottle insulator featuring a nonzero Z2 topological invariant and self-collimated topological surface states at two opposite surfaces related by a nonlocal twist,radically distinct from all previous 3D topological insulators.Our discovery not only fundamentally modifies the fundamental domain and topology of 3D BZ,but also opens the door towards a wealth of previously overlooked momentum-space multidimensional manifold topologies and novel gaugesymmetry-enriched topological physics and robust acoustic wave manipulations beyond the existing paradigms.

Review of heterogeneous material objects modeling in additive manufacturing

This review investigates the recent developments of heterogeneous objects modeling in additive manufacturing(AM),as well as general problems and widespread solutions to the modeling methods of heterogeneous objects.Prevalent heterogeneous object representations are generally categorized based on the different expression or data structure employed therein,and the state-of-the-art of process planning procedures for AM is reviewed via different vigorous solutions for part orientation,slicing methods,and path planning strategies.Finally,some evident problems and possible future directions of investigation are discussed.

A review of the design methods of complex topology structures for 3D printing

As a matter of fact,most natural structures are complex topology structures with intricate holes or irregular surface morphology.These structures can be used as lightweight infill,porous scaffold,energy absorber or micro-reactor.With the rapid advancement of 3D printing,the complex topology structures can now be efficiently and accurately fabricated by stacking layered materials.The novel manufacturing technology and application background put forward new demands and challenges to the current design methodologies of complex topology structures.In this paper,a brief review on the development of recent complex topology structure design methods was provided;meanwhile,the limitations of existing methods and future work are also discussed in the end.

Posture control of a 3-RPS pneumatic parallel platform with parameter initialization and an adaptive robust method

A control algorithm for a 3-RPS parallel platform driven by pneumatic cylinders is discussed. All cylinders are controlled by proportional directional valves while the kinematic and dynamic properties of the system are modeled. The method of adaptive robust control is applied to the controller using a back-stepping approach and online parameter estimation. To compensate for the uncertainty and the influence caused by estimations, a fast dynamic compensator is integrated in the controller design. To prevent any influence caused by the load applied to the moving platform changing in a practical working situation, the identification of parameters is taken as the initialization of unknown parameters in the controller, which can improve the adaptability of the algorithm. Using these methods, the response rate of the parameter estimation and control performance were improved significantly.The adverse effects of load and restriction forces were eliminated by the initialization and online estimation.Experiments under different situations illustrated the effectiveness of the adaptive robust controller with parameter initialization, approaching average tracking errors of less than 1%.
