Temperature dynamics and mechanical properties analysis of carbon fiber epoxy composites radiated by nuclear explosion simulated light source.

The impact of light radiation, a predominant energy release mechanism in nuclear explosions, on material properties is of critical importance.

A light source simulating nuclear explosion's light radiation was built to irradiate the CFEC, then measure the reflection spectrum and temperature of samples.

Study on the modulation mechanism of the optoelectronic properties based on common electrode metal atom adsorption on graphene/MoTe.

Context: The two-dimensional graphene/MoTe heterostructure holds extensive potential applications in optoelectronic devices, sensors, and catalysts.

Immobilization of snailase and β-glucosidase on L-aspartic acid-modified magnetic amorphous ZIF for efficiently and sustainably producing ginsenoside compound K.

Improving the catalytic efficiency and recyclability of immobilized enzyme remained a serious challenge in industrial applications. Enzyme immobilization in the amorphous zeolite imidazolate framework (aZIF) preserved high enzyme activity, but still faced separation difficulties and a low catalytic efficiency in practice. In this study, a one-pot co-precipitation method was used to form the enzyme-aZIF/magnetic nanoparticle (MNP) biocomposite by rapidly precipitating snailase (Sna) and β-glucosidase (β-G) with metal/ligand on MNP and modifying with L-aspartic acid (Asp).

Hydrated Magnesium Ion-Uracil and Magnesium Chloride-Uracil Clusters Revealed by Ab Initio Study.

The study focuses on the interaction between canonical uracil and its rare tautomers with Mg and MgCl in the microcosmic water environment and aims to elucidate how ions interact with nucleobase and the cation-anion correlation effect involved using density functional theory calculations. The structures of the Ura-Mg(HO) and Ura-MgCl(HO) clusters are characterized and show that the water molecules preferentially interact with Mg/MgCl, and Mg adopts a hexacoordination pattern in both Ura-Mg(HO) and Ura-MgCl(HO) clusters. When uracil interacts with Mg in (HO) environments, it tends to favor the formation of keto-enol structures.

Research on transformer fault diagnosis models with feature extraction.

To address the challenge of low accuracy in traditional transformer fault diagnosis algorithms, this paper introduces a novel approach that utilizes the Artificial Hummingbird Algorithm (AHA) to optimize both Kernel Principal Component Analysis (KPCA) and Extreme Learning Machine (ELM). We propose the use of various gas concentration ratio features and apply the AHA algorithm to fine-tune the kernel function parameters of KPCA, thus establishing an AHA-KPCA feature extraction model. This model takes the expanded gas concentration ratio features as input and selects the top N principal components with a cumulative contribution rate above 95% to form the feature vectors for fault classification.
