摘要Driven by efforts toward carbon-neutral steelmaking,increased scrap usage elevates Sn content in steels.While the general effects of Sn on steel have been studied,its specific influence on resistance spot welding(RSW)remains unclear.This study investigates Sn’s impact on the mechanical properties of RSW joint of 460 MPa HSLA steel.Cross-tension tests reveal that both the RSW joint without Sn and the RSW joint·containing 0.09wt%Sn exhibit pull-out failure.The RSW joint containing 0.09wt%Sn showing higher peak load and energy absorption attributed to Sn’s solid–solution strengthening.Conversely,the RSW joint containing 0.52wt%Sn exhibited the partial interface failure mode,significantly reducing the peak load and energy absorption.The primary reason is the segregation of Sn in the interdendritic regions of the fusion zone,which weakens atomic cohesion and reduces fracture toughness.Such severe segregation arises from RSW’s high cooling rates,which shift the primary solidification phase from δ-ferrite to austenite.Fortunately,double-pulse RSW mitigates Sn segregation,restoring failure mode and mechanical performance.This study assesses the impact of Sn on RSW joint properties,and these findings highlight the broader significance of understanding scrap-related residual element effects in sustainable steel production.

摘要The service stability of flexible solar arrays relies on high-quality joints between braided Cu conductors and ultrathin interconnectors,which can be efficiently achieved through MicroResistance Spot Welding(MRSW)process.However,this unconventional MRSW joint,due to the discrete and multi-body nature of braided conductor,possesses a morphology that significantly differs from traditional Resistance Spot Welding(RSW)joints,resulting in a lack of effective standards for evaluating its mechanical performance,thereby hindering its widespread application in large-scale manufacturing.We introduce a double-sided MRSW process for joining Ag-plated Cu conductors and Cu interconnectors and,for the first time,propose a quantitative evaluation method to elucidate the failure process and fracture mechanisms of these discrete,complex joints.The approach entails the analysis of the macro-and micro-structures of the joints under different heat inputs to clarify the bonding mechanism evolution:from single solid-state bonding interfaces to composite interfaces of brazing and solid-state bonding,and eventually to the composite of fusion zone and brazing interfaces.The corresponding failure modes transitioned from interfacial fracture to irregular plug fracture and ultimately to plug fracture.In light of these findings,a critical quality indicator dominated by fusion and brazing connections was identified,and a quantitative mechanical performance evaluation model based on the valid connection length of the joint was established.Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed model accurately predicted bonding strength based on the joint quality indicator,achieving a Root Mean Square Error(RMSE)of 2.736 N for peak shear strength prediction.This study paves the way for developing quality assessment criteria for MRSW joints between braided Ag-plated Cu conductors and Cu interconnectors.

摘要Small-scale auroral spots(SsAS)are frequently observed,particularly on the nightside,yet their formation mechanisms remain unclear.Utilizing all-sky imager data from the Chinese Arctic Yellow River Station and radar measurements from the European Incoherent Scatter Scientific Association(EISCAT),we identified 65 SsAS events occurring near magnetic local noon from 2003 to 2009.We found that they are observed only in the 557.7 nm emission band.They can be classified into two types based on their morphology:sporadic SsAS and fence-like SsAS.The occurrence of these events shows clear dependence on the southward interplanetary magnetic field(IMF)Bz,with the fence-like SsAS exhibiting an even more pronounced dependence.Their occurrence also depends on the westward IMF By.Additionally,we found that most events(88%)are located on the poleward side of the auroral oval,and the drift motion of these SsAS is consistent with the motion direction of adjacent auroral structures,whose motion is strictly governed by the IMF By polarity.These observations indicate that generation of these dayside SsAS may be directly linked to the solar wind energy input through magnetopause reconnection.The EISCAT observations further show that SsAS are accompanied by pronounced electron density gradients.On the basis of these characteristics,we propose that the generation of SsAS may be related to phase mixing of Alfvén waves arising from the density gradients.This study helps elucidate the coupling chain by which solar wind energy is injected into the polar region and subsequently drives ionospheric responses.

摘要This study for the first time used synergistically double-sided probeless friction stir spot welding(SDP-FSSW)to repair the hole defects in a die-cast aluminum alloy ADC12 joints.Compared with conventional FSW repair methods,SDP-FSSW enables symmetric material flow from both sides without a probe,thereby promoting efficient defect closure while avoiding residual keyhole defects.Experiments showed that complete filling of holes could be achieved for joints(repaired zone)welded at a rotation speed of 1500 rpm,dwell time of 4 s,and plunge depth of 0.3 mm.When the rotation speed or dwell time increased,the flash height increased as well,while joint thickness decreased,and the grains refined in the joint.At low heat-input parameters,repair relies on fine-grain filling,while at high heat-input parameters,it depends mainly on material flow.The hardness distribution of the joint shifts from“W”to“U”shape as the heat input increases.The increase in rotation speed or dwell time produced lower joint hardness.

摘要The construction of spot electricity markets plays a pivotal role in power system reforms,where market clearing systems profoundly influence market efficiency and security.Current clearing systems predominantly adopt a single-system architecture,with research focusing primarily on accelerating solution algorithms through techniques such as high-efficiency parallel solvers and staggered decomposition of mixed-integer programming models.Notably absent are systematic studies evaluating the adaptability of primary-backup clearing systems incontingency scenarios—a critical gap given redundant systems’expanding applications in operational environments.This paper proposes a comprehensive evaluation framework for analyzing dual-system adaptability,demonstrated through an in-depth case study of the Inner Mongolia power market.First,we establish the innovative“Dual-Active Heterogeneous”architecture that enables independent parallelized operation and fault-isolated redundancy.Subsequently,key performance indices are quantitatively evaluated across four critical dimensions:unit commitment decisions,generator output constraints,transmission section congestion patterns,and clearing price formation mechanisms.An integrated fuzzy evaluation methodology incorporating grey relational analysis is employed for objective indicator weighting,enabling systematic quantification of system superiority under specific grid operating states.Empirical results based on actual operational data from 200 generation units demonstrate the framework’s efficacy in guiding optimal system selection,with particularly strong performance observed during peak load periods.The proposed approach shows high generalization potential for other regional markets employing redundant clearing mechanisms—particularly those with increasing renewable penetration and associated uncertainty.
摘要In daily life,keyword spotting plays an important role in human-computer interaction.However,noise often interferes with the extraction of time-frequency information,and achieving both computational efficiency and recognition accuracy on resource-constrained devices such as mobile terminals remains a major challenge.To address this,we propose a novel time-frequency dual-branch parallel residual network,which integrates a Dual-Branch Broadcast Residual module and a Time-Frequency Coordinate Attention module.The time-domain and frequency-domain branches are designed in parallel to independently extract temporal and spectral features,effectively avoiding the potential information loss caused by serial stacking,while enhancing information flow and multi-scale feature fusion.In terms of training strategy,a curriculum learning approach is introduced to progressively improve model robustness fromeasy to difficult tasks.Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method consistently outperforms existing lightweight models under various signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)conditions,achieving superior far-field recognition performance on the Google Speech Commands V2 dataset.Notably,the model maintains stable performance even in low-SNR environments such as–10 dB,and generalizes well to unseen SNR conditions during training,validating its robustness to novel noise scenarios.Furthermore,the proposed model exhibits significantly fewer parameters,making it highly suitable for deployment on resource-limited devices.Overall,the model achieves a favorable balance between performance and parameter efficiency,demonstrating strong potential for practical applications.

摘要Isolated Ventricular Non-Compaction(IVNC)is characterized by prominent trabeculations and deep intertrabecular recesses in the ventricular myocardium,[1]believed to result from arrested myocardial compaction during embryogenesis.[2,3]While most literature focuses on left ventricular non-compaction(LVNC),[4,5]isolated involvement of the right ventricle(IRVNC)[6-9]is underreported.
摘要Sialidosis type 1 is a rare autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disorder.It is caused by mutations in the NEU1 gene,which lead to a deficiency of alpha-N-acetyl neuraminidase.This disease usually shows up in childhood or adolescence with neurological and ophthalmic symptoms.The most wellknown eye symptom is macular cherry-red spots,but there is little detailed information about eyerelated characteristics.A patient came in with reduced visual acuity,night blindness,abnormal color vision,and neurological problems.An examination of the fundus showed bilateral macular cherry-red spots,temporal optic disc pallor,and hyperautofluorescent rings around the fovea.Optical coherence tomography showed increased macular reflectivity and unclear boundaries between the ganglion cell layer and the nerve fiber layer.Fundus autofluorescence confirmed pericentral hyperautofluorescence.Microperimetry showed reduced retinal sensitivity,and visual evoked potential showed prolonged P100 latency and decreased amplitude.Genetic testing found compound heterozygous pathogenic NEU1 mutations,confirming sialidosis type 1.We also reviewed published cases.Among 85 patients,23.0%first went to ophthalmology clinics.Besides cherry-red spots,lens opacities(62.1%),nystagmus(38.2%),and optic atrophy(32.0%)were common.The c.544A>G variant was the most common one,and it was associated with higher rates of lens opacities(71.4%)and visual evoked potential abnormalities(96.4%).We report the first case of sialidosis type 1 with a comprehensive multimodal ophthalmic and genetic evaluation,as well as the first systematic review of its eye manifestations.Early and complete eye examinations,including multimodal imaging and functional assessment,are very important for timely diagnosis and management of sialidosis type 1.Clinicians should be aware that there are many eye problems associated with this disease besides cherry-red spots,such as cataract,nystagmus,and optic atrophy.

摘要Tomato spotted wilt virus(TSWV)poses a significant threat as a devastating pathogen to the global production and quality of tomato(Solanum lycopersicum).Mining novel resistance genes within the tomato germplasm is an effective and environmentally friendly approach to combat TSWV.In this study,we investigated the mechanisms underlying high TSWV resistance in a specific tomato line after experimental inoculation,despite not possessing any known TSWV resistance genes.The candidate causal genes of disease resistance traits were finely mapped by constructing different genetic populations and performing bulk segregant analysis sequencing.This approach identified SlDnaJ(Solyc10g081220)as a key locus potentially regulating TSWV resistance.We determined a structural variant of SlDnaJ(designated Sldnaj)containing a 61-bp promoter sequence deletion that was specifically present in the germplasm of the susceptible M82 tomato plant lines.Sldnaj-knockout transgenic plants were significantly more resistant to TSWV than wild-type plants.Up-regulated expression of Sldnaj affected the salicylic acid/jasmonic acid signaling pathway,which induced and promoted the systemic infection of TSWV in M82 susceptible plants.In summary,this study identified a new candidate TSWV susceptibility gene with a natural deletion variation in tomato.These findings provide insights into the molecular mechanism underlying pathogen resistance while offering a target for breeding strategies of tomato with TSWV resistance.

摘要Experimental validation of laser intensity is particularly important for the study of fundamental physics at extremely high intensities.However,reliable diagnosis of the focal spot and peak intensity faces huge challenges.In this work,we demonstrate for the firs time that the coherent radiation farfiel patterns from laser–foil interactions can serve as an in situ,real-time,and easy-to-implement diagnostic for an ultraintense laser focus.The laser-driven electron sheets,curved by the spatially varying laser fiel and leaving the targets at nearly the speed of light,produce doughnut-shaped patterns depending on the shapes of the focal spot and the absolute laser intensities.Assisted by particle-in-cell simulations,we can achieve measurements of the intensity and the focal spot,and provide immediate feedback to optimize the focal spots for extremely high intensity.
