Preparation of gradient wettability surface by anodization depositing copper hydroxide on copper surface

A facile route for preparation of gradient wettability surface on copper substrate with contact angle changing from 90.3°to4.2°was developed.The Cu（OH）2 nanoribbon arrays were electrochemically deposited on copper foil via a modified anodization technology,and the growth degree and density of the Cu（OH）2 arrays may be controlled varying with position along the substrate by slowly adding aqueous solution of KOH into the two-electrode cell of an anodization system to form the gradient surface.The prepared surface was water resistant and thermal stable,which could keep its gradient wetting property after being immersed in water bath at 100℃ for 10 h.The results of scanning electron microscopy（SEM）,X-ray diffraction（XRD） and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy（XPS） demonstrate that the distribution of Cu（OH）2 nanoribbon arrays on copper surface are responsible for the gradient wettability.

Reproduction of the Sedimentary Disturbance Phenomenon of the Diexi Ancient Landslide-Dammed Lake under Earthquake

Valuable geological and environmental information can be obtained from the 200 m thick lacustrine sediments in the Diexi lake(an ancient landslide-dammed lake) of the Minjiang River. The shaking table test method was employed to study the disturbance phenomena which occurred in the Diexi lake sediments. The results show that the disturbance phenomena were caused by liquefaction-induced flows in the unconsolidated lacustrine sediments, due to triggering by earthquakes. The deformations only occurred in unconsolidated sediment layers and not in consolidated layers. This means that a consolidated layer cannot be liquefied and disturbed again by an earthquake for a second time. The disturbance on one layer corresponds to only one earthquake. The temporal occurrence of earthquakes could be determined by disturbance layers generated at different ages. In total, 10 disturbed layers were found in the lacustrine sediments of the Diexi lake. The experiments showed that there were more than 10 earthquakes between 30 ka B.P. and 15 ka B.P. in the Diexi lake area based on the dating of the disturbed sediment layers.

Discrete element method for adhesion properties evaluation of deep-sea sediment from macro and micro perspectives

The adhesion between the mining machine and the deep-sea sediments will significantly affect the driving performance of the mining machine in the deep-sea environment.When the mining machine and the deep-sea sediment interaction simulation was carried out,the accuracy of the particle interaction parameters will directly affect the simulation results.This study proposed a method to systematically calibrate the interaction parameters between deep-sea sediment and grouser through the combination of experiment and simulation.The uniaxial compression test and macro adhesion test and corresponding discrete element numerical simulation were carried out,modifying the contact parameters until the simulation results are close to the experimental results.Then the micro-parameters of the JKR adhesion contact model were back calibrated with the test results,and the contact parameters between soil particle-soil particle and soil particle-metal are calibrated.Besides,the adhesion test shows that the adhesion forces were ranked in the order of 5052<STi80<TA2<TC4 under the same surface roughness,which indicates the aluminum alloy 5052 has the best anti-adhesion performance.The relationship between surface adhesion force and microscopic contact parameters was studied by discrete element numerical simulation,and the result shows that the coefficient of static friction and the coefficient of rolling friction has little effect on adhesion force.While it is mainly affected by the coefficient of restitution and surface energy,the surface adhesion force tends to decrease with the increase of the coefficient of restitution and increase with the growth of surface energy.The obtained parameters of soil particle to soil particle and soil particle to metal affecting the adhesion can contribute to the design optimization for the grouser of mining machines to decrease surface adhesion and enhance its movability and mining efficiency.

In-situ preparation of TiO_(2)/N-doped graphene hollow sphere photocatalyst with enhanced photocatalytic CO_(2) reduction performance

Photocatalytic CO_(2)conversion efficiency is hampered by the rapid recombination of photogenerated charge carriers.It is effective to suppress the recombination by constructing cocatalysts on photocatalysts with high-quality interfacial contact.Herein,we develop a novel strategy to in-situ grow ultrathin/V-doped graphene(NG)layer on TiO_(2) hollow spheres(HS) with large area and intimate interfacial contact via a chemical vapor deposition(CVD).The optimized TiO^(2)/NG HS nanocomposite achieves total CO_(2)conversion rates(the sum yield of CO,CH_(3)OH and CH_(4))of 18.11μmol·g^(-1)h^(-1),which is about 4.6 times higher than blank T1O_(2)HS.Experimental results demonstrate that intimate interfacial contact and abundant pyridinic N sites can effectively facilitate photogenerated charge carrier separation and transport,realizing enhanced photocatalytic CO_(2)reduction performance.In addition,this work provides an effective strategy for in-situ construction of graphene-based photocatalysts for highly efficient photocatalytic CO_(2)conversion.

Cosmogenic nuclide burial age of the Sanying Formation and its implications

The Pliocene fluvial/lacustrine sediments of the Sanying Formation lie along the Red River fault and its northwest extension;their majority outcrops appear around Eryuan.The Sanying Formation is characterized by multiple intercalated coal layers and its unconformities contact with the underlying Triassic limestone and the overlying Quaternary coarse sediments.Cosmogenic nuclide burial dating confirms the Pliocene age of the Sanying Formation.The burial ages of the overlying Quaternary sediments provide the lower age limit of the Sanying Formation:2 Ma.Detrital zircon U-Pb age distribution suggests provenance of the Sanying Formation traced to the Songpan-Ganzi flysch belt.From the spatial distribution as well as sedimentary and fault ages,we found a strong connection of the Sanying Formation with the Red River and the Jianchuan faults.We therefore propose that activation of the Red River and the Jianchuan faults during the Late Miocene resulted in subsidence of basins in the extensional areas around Eryuan and in the middle to south segments of the Red River fault.The basins were filled with water carried by the Jinsha River and overflow-lakes formed within the basins where the Sanying Formation was deposited.Most of the lakes were dried and sedimentation of the Sanying Formation ceased due to the uplift of the Yunling Mountains,which forced rerouting of the Jinsha River at the beginning of Quaternary.
