Al-Si alloys are widely used in automotive casting components while microporosity has always been a detrimental defect that leads to property *** this study,a coupled three-dimensional cellular automata(CA)model has been used to predict the hydrogen porosity as functions of cooling rate and initial hydrogen *** quantifying the pore characteristics,it has been found that the average equivalent pore diameter decreases from 40.43 to 23.98μm and the pore number density increases from 10.3 to 26.6 mm^(−3)as the cooling rate changes from 2.6 to 19.4℃/s at the initial hydrogen concentration of 0.25 mL/100 *** is also notable that the pore size increases as the initial hydrogen concentration changes from 0.15 to 0.25 mL/100 g while the pore number remains *** addition,the linear regression between secondary dendrite arm spacing and the equivalent pore diameter has been studied for the first time,matching well with *** work exhibits the application of CA model in future process optimization and robust condition design for advanced automotive parts made of Al-Si alloys.

Recent research on the fundamentals of statistical mechanics has led to an interesting discovery. With locally nonchaotic barriers, as Boltzmann's H theorem is inapplicable, there exist nontrivial nonthermodynamic systems that can produce useful work by absorbing heat from a single thermal reservoir without any other effect, thereby breaking the boundaries of the second law of thermodynamics. The previous analyses used classical mechanical models. In the current investigation, the study is extended to quantum mechanics. First, we reiterate that the Fermi-Dirac distribution and the Bose-Einstein distribution are compatible with the generalized Maxwell's relations, which demonstrates the general robustness of the framework of quantum statistical mechanics. Next, we analyze a set of simple-step scattering problems. When the system is in contact with a thermal reservoir, a bound state inherently follows the second law of thermodynamics, while a scattering state may not. The root cause is associated with the nonlocal nature of the wave function. It implies that the nonthermodynamic phenomena favor unquantized energy and localized wave packets, exhibiting a tendency to occur in “semiclassical” setups.

Phosphorus-based anode is a promising anode for sodium-ion batteries(SIBs)due to its high specific capacity,however,suffers from poor electronic conductivity and unfavorable electrochemical *** metals such as copper(Cu)into phosphorus has been demonstrated to not only improve the electronic conductivity but also accommodate the volume change during cycling,yet the underline sodiation mechanism is not ***,take a copper phosphide and reduced graphene oxide(CuP_(2)/C)composite as an example,which delivers a high reversible capacity of>900 mAh/***,it is revealed that the native oxidation PO_(x)components of the CuP_(2)/C composite show higher electrochemical reversibility than the bulk Cu P_(2),based on a quantitative analysis of high-resolution solid-state^(31)P NMR,ex-situ XPS and synchrotron X-ray diffraction characterization *** sodiation products Na_(3)PO_(4) and Na_(4)P_(2)O_(7) derived from PO_(x) could react with Na-P alloys and regenerate to PO_(x) during charge process,which probably accounts for the high reversible capacity of the Cu P_(2)/C *** findings also illustrate that the phosphorus transforms into nanocrystalline Na_(3)P and Na_(x)P alloys,which laterally shows crystallization-amorphization evolution process during cycling.

Affected by the interface dipole effect and van der Waals strain effect, Fermi level matching and interface coupling strength have become key challenges in studying the application of 2D/2D van der Waals heterojunctions in the field of photocatalytic hydrogen evolution (PHE). To address this issue, a novel two-dimensional material, interstitial carbon-doped van der Waals heterojunction (Ci-MS/CN), was developed in this work for the first time. By optimizing the comprehensive performance of the interaction between materials at the interface, the structure significantly improved the electron transfer path of the heterojunction. Under the condition of platinum-free catalyst, Ci-MS/CN showed excellent PHE performance, and the product formation rate reached 3237.6 μmol g−1 h−1 (visible light condition), which was 48 times that of the traditional system. This performance improvement was attributed to the introduction of atomic-level interstitial carbon on the MoS2 subsurface, which precisely controlled the band gap matching and interface charge distribution of the heterojunction, thereby significantly enhancing the photoresponse behavior and surface catalytic activity. This work offers new insights and guidance for the in-depth understanding and design of efficient two-dimensional heterojunctions, and lays a solid foundation for the development of platinum-free photocatalytic hydrogen production technology.

AISI 52100 steel machining has drawn a greater interest in industrial and manufacturing applications due to its high strength, sublime hardness, and impressive wear resistance. Conventional cutting fluid-assisted machining is an objectionable option owing to its threat to the environment and operators. Dry machining or near dry machining is the primary choice to promote sustainable manufacturing. Multi-objective optimization is becoming an indispensable phase in choosing cutting conditions for desirable machinability characteristics. In the present work, a multi-objective optimization approach is utilized to model and optimize the surface roughness and tool flank wear during the dry cutting of AISI 52100 steel. To examine and quantify the relationship between process input and output parameters, a full factorial design, a response surface methodology (RSM), and a desirability function approach is adopted. The obtained optimum levels of the control factors are cutting speed at 119.734 m/min, feed rate at 0.1 mm/rev, and depth of cut at 0.4 mm; and the corresponding predicted surface roughness and tool wear are 2.967 µm and 0.052 mm, respectively. Model fitness and efficacy were judged through confirmation tests. A correlation coefficient (R 2 ) of 0.9921 for surface roughness and 0.9876 for tool wear indicates a significant agreement between model predictions and experimental results. Thus, the RSM model used in the work can minimize the expensive experimental trials of machining processes.
