Research on the Impact of New and Renewable Energy Replacing Fossil Energy Resource under Constraint of Carbon Emissions

For studying new and renewable energy as a substitute for fossil energy in primary energy consumption and its impact on carbon emissions to cope with economic uncertainties, a multi-sector DSGE model was employed to simulate the dynamic impact on carbon emissions and macroeconomic development. The structural adjustment of energy consumption and the carbon emissions mitigation policy were considered in the model. The simulation results showed that using new and renewable energy instead of fossil energy is an optimal choice for the firms to comply with the regulations of carbon emission mitigation policy. Structural adjustment of energy consumption is the best route to achieve the dual goal of economic development and carbon emission reduction. Unexpected sharp fall in free carbon quota has a negative impact on the economy.

THE LINEAR CORRELATIONS BETWEEN ELECTRONIC TRANSITION ENERGY AND HAMMETT CONSTANTS FOR THE SUBSTITUTED PORPHYRIN-LIKE MACROCYCLE

The properties of absorption spectra are presented and the linear correlations of Hammett constants with the 0-0 transition energy(E_(o,o))of S_←S_o, and the ratios of oscillator strength(f/f)are used to probe the interactions betwee π-electron of aromatic maerocycles or metal ion of complexes with the sub- stituents on β-position of benzene ring for porphyrin-like maerocyclic compounds.

First-principles study of multiple-site substitutions of alloying elements in Ni-based single crystal superalloys

The development of Ni-based single crystal superalloys relies heavily on the composition design with the addition of critical alloying elements,e.g.,Re and Ru.Understanding the role of alloying effects require to know the configurations of the alloying element distribution betweenγ-Ni andγ′-Ni3Al phases and among various non-equivalent sites.This work employed firstprinciples density functional theory calculations to study the preference of phase and site occupancy of 11 alloying elements including Al and transition metal elements:3d (Ti,Cr,Co,Ni),4d (Mo,Ru),and 5d (Hf,Ta,W,Re) in Ni and Ni3Al.We calculated the substitution energies of 1298 triple-site doping configurations including 286 Ni Ni Ni site doping of Ni,726 Al Ni Ni site doping,and 286 Ni Ni Ni site doping of Ni3Al with alloying elements Ni,Co,Ru,Cr,Re,Mo,W,Al,Ti,Ta,and Hf.In the dual-site and triple-site doping of Ni and Ni3Al,all studied alloying elements preferred to occupy Ni phase rather than Ni3Al phase.We found that the most stable defect complexes often contained the favorable substitutions of Al,Ti,Ta,and Hf for the Ni sites that stabilized the alloying elements doping at the other one or two nearest neighbor sites.The co-substitutions of various alloying elements at multiple sites are critical to understanding the strengthening mechanism of alloying elements in Ni-based single crystal superalloys.
