DMF体系中Cu2O球晶的制备及形貌分析

以N,N-二甲基甲酰胺(DMF)为溶剂,通过改变铜源和表面活性剂,调控反应参数,溶剂热条件下制备了三维十字形、空心及实心的Cu₂O球晶。利用XRD、SEM等表征手段,分析探讨了工艺条件变化对Cu₂O球晶形貌的影响。研究表明,随着DMF浓度的增大,体系的还原能力增强,Cu⁺增多,溶液的过饱和度增大,Cu₂O晶体集合体形态由晶体结构控制的各向异性与对称性的球晶逐渐向各向同性球晶演变。十二烷基硫酸钠(SDS)、十六烷基三甲基溴化铵(CTAB)、聚乙烯吡咯烷酮(PVP)等表面活性剂有助于降低溶液的过饱和度,增加结晶质的表面扩散能力,有利于规则形态Cu₂O晶粒的形成。反应体系中,Cu(Ac)₂·H₂O水解生成的羧基与DMF中的甲酰基在高温下发生脱羧反应产生CO₂气体以及SDS发泡作用产生的气体是形成空心Cu₂O球晶的重要原因。

Development and assessment of an intrusive polynomial chaos expansion-based continuous adjoint method for shape optimization under uncertainties

This article contributes to the development of methods for shape optimization under uncertainties, associated with the flow conditions, based on intrusive Polynomial Chaos Expansion (iPCE) and continuous adjoint. The iPCE to the Navier–Stokes equations for laminar flows of incompressible fluids is developed to compute statistical moments of the Quantity of Interest which are, then, compared with those obtained through the Monte Carlo method. The optimization is carried out using a continuous adjoint-enabled, gradient-based loop. Two different formulations for the continuous adjoint to the iPCE PDEs are derived, programmed, and verified. Intrusive PCE methods for the computation of the statistical moments require mathematical development, derivation of a new system of governing equations and their numerical solution. The development is presented for a chaos order of two and two uncertain variables and can be used as a guide to those willing to extend this development to a different set of uncertain variables or chaos order. The developed method and software, programmed in OpenFOAM, is applied to two optimization problems pertaining to the flow around isolated airfoils with uncertain farfield conditions.     

Existence and uniqueness of maximal strong solution of a 1D blood flow in a network of vessels

We study the well-posedness of a system of one-dimensional partial differential equations modeling blood flows in a network of vessels with viscoelastic walls. We prove the existence and uniqueness of maximal strong solution for this type of hyperbolic/parabolic model. We also prove a stability estimate under suitable nonlinear Robin boundary conditions.     

Identification of the precursor cluster in thermolysin crystallization solution by molecular dynamics methods

An analysis of the crystal structure of thermolysin revealed four possible precursor clusters (hexamers) of its crystal. Using the method of molecular dynamics and plots of root mean square fluctuation, root mean square deviation and radius of gyration, the most stable hexamer, which is a precursor cluster,was determined. The importance of the established structure of the thermolysin precursor cluster for determining the mechanism of crystal formation is shown.
