Diagnosing ratio of electron density to collision frequency of plasma surrounding scaled model in a shock tube using low-frequency alternating magnetic field phase shift

A non-contact low-frequency(LF)method of diagnosing the plasma surrounding a scaled model in a shock tube is proposed.This method utilizes the phase shift occurring after the transmission of an LF alternating magnetic field through the plasma to directly measure the ratio of the plasma loop average electron density to collision frequency.An equivalent circuit model is used to analyze the relationship of the phase shift of the magnetic field component of LF electromagnetic waves with the plasma electron density and collision frequency.The applicable range of the LF method on a given plasma scale is analyzed.The upper diagnostic limit for the ratio of the electron density(unit:m^(-3))to collision frequency(unit:Hz)exceeds 1×10^(11),enabling an electron density to exceed 1×10^(20)m^(-3)and a collision frequency to be less than 1 GHz.In this work,the feasibility of using the LF phase shift to implement the plasma diagnosis is also assessed.Diagnosis experiments on shock tube equipment are conducted by using both the electrostatic probe method and LF method.By comparing the diagnostic results of the two methods,the inversion results are relatively consistent with each other,thereby preliminarily verifying the feasibility of the LF method.The ratio of the electron density to the collision frequency has a relatively uniform distribution during the plasma stabilization.The LF diagnostic path is a loop around the model,which is suitable for diagnosing the plasma that surrounds the model.Finally,the causes of diagnostic discrepancy between the two methods are analyzed.The proposed method provides a new avenue for diagnosing high-density enveloping plasma.

Reinforced interface endows the lithium anode with stable cycle at high-temperature of 80℃

Embracing ultrahigh theoretical capacity of 3860 mA h g^(-1)and the lowest reduction potential of-3.04 V(versus standard hydrogen electrode),lithium(Li) is considered as the "holy grail" material for pursuing higher energy density,of which application has been challenged due to the unstable interface caused by the non-uniform electrodeposition as well as high chemical activity.Operating at higher temperature can be recommended to uniform electrodeposition of Li metal.Nevertheless,the intrinsic side-reaction between Li metal anode and electrolyte is inevitably aggravated and thus fosters the failure of Li metal anode rapidly with uneven electrodeposition.Here,a kind of temperature-tolerated ionic liquid(1-methyl-3-ethylimidazole bis(fluorosulfo nyl)imide/lithium bis(trifluoromethylsulfo nyl)imide,EF/LT)based electrolyte that matrixed with poly(vinylidene fluoride-hexafluoropropylene) was designed to maintain the interfacial stabilization of Li metal due to the weak interfacial reaction and uniform electrodeposition at high temperature of 80℃.It is the matter that the 660-h cycle with lower polarization is achieved with EF/LT-based electrolyte at temperature of 80 ℃ and the full cell embraces outstanding cyclic performance,without capacity fading within 100 cycles.Delighting,a door for practical application of Li metal anode for higher energy density as the carbon neutrality progresses in the blooming human society has been opened gradually.

Electro-chemo-mechanical design of polymer matrix in composited LiNi_(0.8)Co_(0.1)Mn_(0.1)O_(2) cathode endows solid-state batteries with superior performance

Nickel-rich LiNi_(0.8)Co_(0.1)Mn_(0.1)O_(2)(NCM811) cathode material has been widely concerned due to its high voltage,high specific capacity and excellent rate performance,which is considered as one of the most promising cathode materials for the next generation of high-energy-density solid-state lithium batteries.However,serious electro-chemo-mechanical degradation of Nickel-rich cathode during cycling,especially at a high voltage(over 4.5 V),constrains their large-scale application.Here,using the multiphysical simulation,highly-conductive polymer matrix with spontaneous stress-buffering effect was uncovered theoretically for reinforcing the electrochemical performance of composited NCM81 1 cathode through the visualization of uniform concentration distribution of Li-ion coupled with improved stress field inside NCM811 cathode.Thereupon,polyacrylonitrile(PAN) and soft polyvinylidene fluoride(PVDF) were selected as the polymer matrix to fabricate the composited NCM811 cathode(PVDFPAN@NCM811) for improving the electrochemical performance of the solid-state NMC811|Li full cells,which can maintain high capacity over 146.2 mA h g^(-1)after 200 cycles at a high voltage of 4.5 V.Suggestively,designing a multifunctional polymer matrix with high ionic conductivity and mechanical property can buffer the stress and maintain the integrity of the structure,which can be regarded as the door-opening avenue to realize the high electrochemical performance of Ni-rich cathode for solidstate batteries.

Accelerated fracture healing by osteogenic Ti45Nb implants through the PI3K–Akt signaling pathway

The key to managing fracture is to achieve stable internal fixation,and currently,biologically and mechanically appropriate internal fixation devices are urgently needed.With excellent biocompatibility and corrosion resistance,titanium–niobium alloys have the potential to become a new generation of internal fixation materials for fractures.However,the role and mechanism of titanium–niobium alloys on promoting fracture healing are still undefined.Therefore,in this study,we systematically evaluated the bone-enabling properties of Ti45Nb via in vivo and in vitro experiments.In vitro,we found that Ti45Nb has an excellent ability to promote MC3T3-E1 cell adhesion and proliferation without obvious cytotoxicity.Alkaline phosphatase(ALP)activity and alizarin red staining and semiquantitative analysis showed that Ti45Nb enhanced the osteogenic differentiation of MC3T3-E1 cells compared to the Ti6Al4V control.In the polymerase chain reaction experiment,the expression of osteogenic genes in the Ti45Nb group,such as ALP,osteopontin(OPN),osteocalcin(OCN),type 1 collagen(Col-1)and runt-related transcription factor-2(Runx2),was significantly higher than that in the control group.Meanwhile,in the western blot experiment,the expression of osteogenic-related proteins in the Ti45Nb group was significantly increased,and the expression of PI3K–Akt-related proteins was also higher,which indicated that Ti45Nb might promote fracture healing by activating the PI3K–Akt signaling pathway.In vivo,we found that Ti45Nb implants accelerated fracture healing compared to Ti6Al4V,and the biosafety of Ti45Nb was confirmed by histological evaluation.Furthermore,immunohistochemical staining confirmed that Ti45Nb may promote osteogenesis by upregulating the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway.Our study demonstrated that Ti45Nb exerts an excellent ability to promote fracture healing as well as enhance osteoblast differentiation by activating the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway,and its good biosafety has been confirmed,which indicates its clinical translation potential.

Numerical and experimental studies on the effectiveness of time-varying electromagnetic fields in reducing electron density

When an aircraft or a hypersonic vehicle re-enters the atmosphere,the plasma sheath generated can severely attenuate electromagnetic wave signals,causing the problem of communication blackout.A new method based on time-varying E×B fields is proposed to improve on the existing static E×B fields and mitigate the radio blackout problem.The use of the existing method is limited by the invalid electron density reduction resulting from current density j=0 A m^(-2)in plasma beyond the Debye radius.The most remarkable feature is the introduction of a time-varying electric field to increase the current density in the plasma to overcome the Debye shielding effect on static electric field.Meanwhile,a magnetic field with the same frequency and phase as the electric field is applied to ensure that the electromagnetic force is always acting on the plasma in one direction.In order to investigate the effect of time-varying E×B fields on the plasma electron density distribution,two directions of voltage application are considered in numerical simulation.The simulation results indicate that different voltage application methods generate electromagnetic forces in different directions in the plasma,resulting in repulsion and vortex effects in the plasma.A comparison of the vortex effect and repulsion effect reveals that the vortex effect is better at reducing the electron density.The local plasma electron density can be reduced by more than 80%through the vortex effect,and the dimensions of the area of reduced electron density reach approximately 6 cm×4 cm,meeting the requirements of electromagnetic wave propagation.Besides,the vortex effect of reducing the electron density in RAM-C(radio attenuation measurements for the study of communication blackout)reentry at an altitude of 40 km is analyzed.On the basis of the simulation results,an experiment based on a rectangular-window discharge device is proposed to demonstrate the effectiveness of the vortex effect.Experimental results show that time-varying E×B fields can reduce the electron density in plasma of 3 cm thickness by 80%at B=0.07 T and U_(0)=1000 V.The investigations confirm the effectiveness of the proposed method in terms of reducing the required strength of the magnetic field and overcoming the Debye shielding effect.Additionally,the method is expected to provide a new way to apply a magnetic window in engineering applications.

QPSO-based algorithm of CSO joint infrared super-resolution and trajectory estimation

The midcourse ballistic closely spaced objects（CSO） create blur pixel-cluster on the space-based infrared focal plane,making the super-resolution of CSO quite necessary.A novel algorithm of CSO joint super-resolution and trajectory estimation is presented.The algorithm combines the focal plane CSO dynamics and radiation models,proposes a novel least square objective function from the space and time information,where CSO radiant intensity is excluded and initial dynamics（position and velocity） are chosen as the model parameters.Subsequently,the quantum-behaved particle swarm optimization（QPSO） is adopted to optimize the objective function to estimate model parameters,and then CSO focal plane trajectories and radiant intensities are computed.Meanwhile,the estimated CSO focal plane trajectories from multiple space-based infrared focal planes are associated and filtered to estimate the CSO stereo ballistic trajectories.Finally,the performance（CSO estimation precision of the focal plane coordinates,radiant intensities,and stereo ballistic trajectories,together with the computation load） of the algorithm is tested,and the results show that the algorithm is effective and feasible.

Spontaneous rupture of hepatic epithelioid hemangioendothelioma: A case report

Hepatic epithelioid hemangioendothelioma(HEH) is a rare tumor of vascular endothelial origin. Spontaneous rupture of HEH is a life-threatening complication and is extremely rare. HEH has variable malignant potential, and the clinical diagnosis remains challenging. Here we report a case of HEH with spontaneous rupture. A 44-year-old man presented with constant cutting pains over the right upper abdomen after eating. He had hemoptysis 11 d previously. Diagnostic abdominal puncture demonstrated active bleeding. Chest and abdominal computer tomography scan showed multiple ground-glass nodules over the lungs, multiple low-density intrahepatic nodules and massive hemorrhage. Transcatheter arterial embolization and exploratory laparotomy were performed and subsequent immunohistochemical examination confirmed a diagnosis of HEH.

Tracking Galloping Profile of Transmission Lines Using Wireless Inertial Measurement Units

Galloping of power transmission lines might bring about huge damage such as massive power outage and collapse of the transmission towers. To realize forecast of the galloping and provide data for study on the galloping mechanism, this paper proposes an online monitoring system for tracking galloping profile of power transmission lines based on wireless inertial measurement units (WIMUs). The system is composed of three modules: wireless inertial measurement nodes, monitoring base station, and remote monitoring station. After detailing the hardware system, the corresponding software which positions and displays galloping profile of the transmission line in real-time is outlined. The feasibility of the proposed on-line monitoring system is demonstrated through a series of experiments at the State Grid Key Laboratory of Power Overhead Transmission Line Galloping (Zhengzhou, China) by taking into account different vibration patterns.

Mitigation of blackout problem for reentry vehicle in traveling magnetic field with induced current

In this paper, a novel solution mitigating the radio blackout problem is proposed, which improves existing traveling magnetic field(TMF)-based methods. The most significant advance lies in replacing the external injection with self-induced current, which does not require electrodes. The improved analytical model is derived to evaluate the electron density reduction taking into consideration the self-induced current for various TMF velocities. The plasma reduction performance is analyzed for several conditions including the total absence of injected current. The results show that the velocity may be used to trade off the injected current and, when sufficiently large, eliminates the need for an injected current while mitigating radio blackout. The effectiveness of this solution to the blackout problem is demonstrated in commonly used aerospace communication bands. With a field strength of less than 0.15 T, increasing the velocity from40 m s^-1 to 3100 m s^-1 is all that is required to obviate the need for an injected current. Moreover,typical reduction ratios for electronic density tolerance(2, 1.9, 1.75 and 3 times for the L-, S-, Cand X-bands, respectively, at an altitude of 40 km) remain unchanged. Increasing the velocity of the TMF is much easier than injecting current via a metal electrode into a high-temperature flow field. The TMF method appears practical in regard to possible future applications.

Association Between Knee Alignment,Disease Severity and Subchondral Trabecular Bone Microarchitecture in Patients with Knee Osteoarthritis

Objective Most patients with knee osteoarthritis(OA)have alignment deformity with the change of Hip-knee-ankle(HKA)angle.The knee alignment influences load distribution at the tibial plateau.Meanwhile,change of subchondral trabecular bone microstructure is related to load bearing and OA progression.However,the relationship between knee alignment on the changes of subchondral trabecular bone microstructure and OA severity have been poorly investigated.The main goal of this work was to investigate variation in tibial plateaus subchondral trabecular bone microstructure in knee OA patients and their association with the severity of OA with the change of knee alignment.Methods Seventy-one knee OA patients planning to undergo total knee arthroplasty were enrolled in this study.The HKA angle and OA disease severity(OARSI score,compartment-specific Kellgren-Lawrence(K-L)grade and OARSI Atlas grade)based on full-leg standing posteroanterior radiographs were evaluated preoperatively in all patients.The tibial plateau collected during surgery was first used for micro-computed tomography(μCT)to analyze the subchondral trabecular bone microstructures,and then used for pathological sections to analyze cartilage degeneration(OARSI score).Pearson and spearman correlations were used to examine linear relationships between knee alignment,OA disease severity and subchondral trabecular bone microstructure.Patients were then divided into group I(HKA angle exceeds 0°in the valgus direction),group II(varus angle<10°)and group III(varus angle≥10°).The differences in subchondral trabecular bone microstructural parameters between the three groups were analyzed by the one-way ANOVA with a post hoc Tukey test.Results HKA angle was significantly correlated with all tibial plateau subchondral trabecular bone microstructure parameters.Regardless of the medial or lateral tibia,HKA angle was most strongly correlated with bone volume fraction(BV/TV),M:(r=0. 613,P<0.01);L:(r=-0.490,P<0.01).In addition,for the media-to-lateral ratios(M:L)of the subchondral trabecular bone microstructure parameters,the HKA angle is positively correlated with M:L BV/TV(r=0.658,P<0.01),M:L trabecular number(Tb.N)(r=0.525,,P<0.01),M:L trabecular thickness(Tb.Th)(r=0.636,P<0.01),and negatively correlated with M:L trabecular separation(Tb.Sp)(r=-0.636,P<0.01)and M:L Specific Bone Surface(BS/BV)(r=-0.792,P<0.01).The BV/TV,Tb.N,and Tb.Th of the medial tibia were sequentially incremented in the order of groupⅠ,Ⅱ,Ⅲof knee alignment,while the Tb.Sp and BS/BV were decreased in this order.The lateral tibia is the opposite.In addition,most of the severity indices of OA are associated with subchondral trabecular bone microstructures,of which OARSI score and BV/TV in medial tibia are the most relevant(r=0.787,P<0.01).HKA angle is significantly correlated with all OA severity grades in medial compartment,but only with OARSI score and Bone sclerosis grade in lateral compartment.Conclusions Tibial plateau subchondral trabecular bone microarchitecture is associated with the HKA angle and OA severity.With the increase of varus angle and the severity of OA,the subchondral trabecular bone in medial tibia has more obvious sclerosis changes and vice versa,suggesting that knee malalignment may promote abnormal subchondral trabecular bone remodeling by altering joint load distribution,thereby affecting the progression of OA.

Effect of rotating liquid samples on dynamic propagation and aqueous activation of a helium plasma jet

This paper aims to explore the effects of a rotating plasma-activated liquid on the dynamic propagation and biomedical application of a helium plasma jet.The spatial distribution of reactive species and the associated physico-chemical reactions are altered by the rotating liquid,which shows a significant weakening in the axial propagation of the plasma bullet and a strengthening in its radial expansion at the liquid surface.The phenomenon is prompted by the nonzero rotational velocity of the liquid and is regulated by airflow,target distance and liquid permittivity.The concentrations of aqueous reactive species,especially OH and O~-,and the inactivation effectiveness on cancer cells are weakened,indicating that a rotating liquid is not conducive to water treatment of the plasma jet although the treatment area of the plasma jet increases dynamically.This finding is of significance for the plasma–liquid interaction and the biomedical-related applications of plasma jets.

Experiment on low-frequency electromagnetic waves propagating in shock-tube-generated magnetized cylindrical enveloping plasma

We propose a method of applying a static magnetic field to reduce the attenuation of the magnetic field component(SH) of low-frequency electromagnetic(LF EM) waves in dense plasma. The principle of this method is to apply a static magnetic field to limit electron movement, thereby increasing the equivalent resistance and thus reducing the induced current and SH. We consider the static magnetic field acting on the plasma of the entire induced current loop rather than on the local plasma, where the induced current is excited by the magnetic field component of LF EM waves. Analytical expressions of SH suitable for magnetized cylindrical enveloping plasma are derived by adopting an equivalent circuit approach, by which SHis calculated with respect to various plasma parameter settings. The results show that SH can be reduced under a static magnetic field and the maximum magnetic field strength that mitigates blackout is less than 0.1 T. Experiments in which LF EM waves propagate in a shock-tubegenerated magnetized cylindrical enveloping plasma are also conducted. SH measured under the magnetic field(the magnetic field strength B0 acting on the magnetic field probe was about0.06 T) reduces at f=10 MHz and f=30 MHz when ne≈1.9×1013 cm-3, which is consistent with theoretical results. The verification of the theory thus suggests that applying a static magnetic field with a weak magnetic field has the potential to improve the transmission capacity of LF EM waves in dense plasma.

Synthesis of LiCopo₄Powders as a High-Voltage Cathode Material via Solvothermal Method

Lithium cobalt phosphate (LiCoPO4, LCP), having a high operating potential (4.8 V vs. Li/Li+), a flat voltage profile and a good theoretical capacity (167 mAh/g), is considered a promising cathode material for improving the energy density of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) [1] [2]. Here we report a category of method for synthesizing LCP, the solvothermal (ST) method with a binary solvent (deionized water: ethyl alcohol = 1:1), controlling the concentration of cobalt ion in 0.05 mol/L (ST-0.05) and 0.25mol/L (ST-0.25). The material phase was apparently identified via X-ray diffraction (XRD). Observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), the grain size of LCP powders synthesizing by solvothermal method with two kinds of the concentration of cobalt ion were 400 × 400 × 1000 nm cuboids (ST-0.05) and 150 × 150 × 250 nm hexagonal prisms containing nanoparticles (ST-0.25), respectively. Discharge capacities of LCP were 76.0 mAh/g (ST-0.05) and 94.5 mAh/g (ST-0.25), in the first cycle at 0.1 C, respectively.

Advances of biodegradable magnesium-based implants for orthopaedics

Stainless steel,titanium alloys,cobalt-chromium alloys and other metal materials are the most widely used orthopaedic implants.However,there are still some problems in clinical application,including a mechanical mismatch between metal and bone,inflammation and secondary operation.As a new generation of medical metal materials,magnesium(Mg)and its alloys have attracted much attention due to their excellent biodegradability.Biodegradable Mg-based metals have good mechanical and osteogenic properties,and are expected to become implant materials to treat challenging orthopaedic diseases.However,the rapid corrosion rate is still one of the main challenges restricting its clinical application.Alloy and surface modification are effective methods to control the corrosion rate of Mg alloys.This paper reviews the mechanical and biological properties of biodegradable Mg alloys and the problems when they are applied clinically,emphasizing the latest progress of Mg-based metals in alloying and surface modification.The status of the application of Mg-based implants in orthopaedics are also described.

A Torsion-Bending Antagonistic Bistable Actuator Enables Untethered Crawling and Swimming of Miniature Robots

Miniature robots show great potential in exploring narrow and confined spaces to perform various tasks,but many applications are limited by the dependence of these robots on electrical or pneumatic tethers to power supplies outboard.Developing an onboard actuator that is small in size and powerful enough to carry all the components onboard is a major challenge to eliminate the need for a tether.Bistability can trigger a dramatic energy release during switching between the 2 stable states,thus providing a promising way to overcome the intrinsic limitation of insufficient power of small actuators.In this work,the antagonistic action between torsional deflection and bending deflection in a lamina emergent torsional joint is utilized to achieve bistability,yielding a buckling-free bistable design.The unique configuration of this bistable design enables integrating of a single bending electroactive artificial muscle in the structure to form a compact,self-switching bistable actuator.A low-voltage ionic polymer-metal composites artificial muscle is employed,yielding a bistable actuator capable of generating an instantaneous angular velocity exceeding 300°/s by a 3.75-V voltage.Two untethered robotic demonstrations using the bistable actuator are presented,including a crawling robot(gross weight of 2.7 g,including actuator,battery,and on-board circuit)that can generate a maximum instantaneous velocity of 40 mm/s and a swimming robot equipped with a pair of origami-inspired paddles that swims breaststroke.The low-voltage bistable actuator shows potential for achieving autonomous motion of various fully untethered miniature robots.

Additively manufactured biodegradable porous magnesium implants for elimination of implant-related infections:An in vitro and in vivo study

Magnesium(Mg)alloys that have both antibacterial and osteogenic properties are suitable candidates for orthopedic implants.However,the fabrication of ideal Mg implants suitable for bone repair remains challenging because it requires implants with interconnected pore structures and personalized geometric shapes.In this study,we fabricated a porous 3D-printed Mg-Nd-Zn-Zr(denoted as JDBM)implant with suitable mechanical properties using selective laser melting technology.The 3D-printed JDBM implant exhibited cytocompatibility in MC3T3-E1 and RAW267.4 cells and excellent osteoinductivity in vitro.Furthermore,the implant demonstrated excellent antibacterial ratios of 90.0% and 92.1% for methicillin-resistant S.aureus(MRSA)and Escherichia coli,respectively.The 3D-printed JDBM implant prevented MRSA-induced implant-related infection in a rabbit model and showed good in vivo biocompatibility based on the results of histological evaluation,blood tests,and Mg2+deposition detection.In addition,enhanced inflammatory response and TNF-α secretion were observed at the bone-implant interface of the 3D-printed JDBM implants during the early implantation stage.The high Mg^(2+)environment produced by the degradation of 3D-printed JDBM implants could promote M1 phenotype of macrophages(Tnf,iNOS,Ccl3,Ccl4,Ccl5,Cxcl10,and Cxcl2),and enhance the phagocytic ability of macrophages.The enhanced immunoregulatory effect generated by relatively fast Mg^(2+)release and implant degradation during the early implantation stage is a potential antibacterial mechanism of Mg-based implant.Our findings indicate that 3D-printed porous JDBM implants,having both antibacterial property and osteoinductivity,hold potential for future orthopedic applications.

Catalytic Co9S8 decorated carbon nanoboxes as efficient cathode host for long-life lithium-sulfur batteries

Lithium sulfur(Li-S)batteries with high specific capacity and energy density can bring enormous opportunities for the nextgeneration energy storage systems.However,the severe dissolution and shuttle effect of lithium polysulfides(LiPSs)is still the key issue that seriously impedes the development of practical Li-S batteries.Here,polar Co9S8 inlaid carbon nanoboxes(Co9S8@C NBs)have been investigated as cathode host for high-performance Li-S batteries.In this integrated structure,Co9S8 nanocrystals not only provide strong chemisorptive capability for polar LiPSs,but also act as a catalyst to accelerate polysulfide redox reactions;while carbon nanobox with large inner space can offer enough space to relieve the volume expansion and physically confine LiPSs’dissolution.As a result,the S/Co9S8@C NBs cathode exhibits high specific capacity at 1C and the capacity retention was^83%after 400 cycles,corresponding to an average decay rate of only^0.043%per cycle.
