This study evaluates the feasibility of producing high-strength low-alloy (HSLA) steel using advanced wire-fed laser additive manufacturing (LAM-W) and wire arc additive manufacturing (WAAM) technologies. Optimized parameters were independently developed for each heat source, utilizing a self-designed HSLA steel wire as the feedstock. Microstructural features and mechanical properties of the fabricated steels were characterized and compared, taking into account differences in heat input and cooling rates. LAM-W samples exhibited a finer columnar grain microstructure, while both LAM-W- and WAAM-produced steels predominantly showed lower bainite and granular bainite microstructures. LAM-W demonstrated higher strength and hardness, lower ductility, and comparable low-temperature toughness compared to WAAM. Both processes demonstrated an excellent balance between strength and ductility, with absorbed energy exceeding 100 J at −40 °C. The study confirms the feasibility of producing high-strength and tough HSLA steel parts using LAM-W and WAAM technologies, and compares the advantages and disadvantages of each method. These findings assist in selecting the most suitable wire-fed AM process for HSLA steel fabrication at high deposition rates. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Establishing lucerne field is an efficient way to protect natural steppes, alleviate conflicts between meadows and livestock, and promote the development of animal husbandry. However, problems such as extensive field management, valuing yield over quality, and low resource utilization are endemic in production. Exploring reasonable cultivation patterns can contribute to improving the current situation of artificial grassland production and promoting the high-quality development of husbandry and prataculture. Lucerne the field experiment was carried out in Jingtai, Gansu Province, China in 2021–2022; this study compared and analyzed the effects of three cultivation patterns—ridge tillage with plastic film mulching (PM), ridge tillage with biodegradable film mulching (BM), and traditional flat planting (FP)—on soil water, heat, and fertilizer, as well as lucerne growth, yield, quality, and water and nitrogen use efficiency. The results show that: (1) during the growth period of lucerne, PM and BM treatments augment the average moisture content of the soil layer of 0–120 cm by 31.19% and 24.03% compared to the FP treatment, respectively. In the soil layer of 0–40 cm, PM and BM treatments abate the soil moisture content of the ridges by an average of 19.29% and 7.89% compared to that in the ditches, respectively. In the soil layer of 40–120 cm, PM and BM treatments elevate the soil moisture content of the ridges by 4.40% and 4.65% on average compared to that in the ditches, respectively. The average soil temperature in a soil layer of 5–25 cm shows PM > BM > FP. In contrast with the FP treatment, PM and BM treatments increase the soil temperature of the ridges by an average of 1.87 °C and 0.96 °C and decrease that of the ditches by an average of 0.47 °C and 0.46 °C, respectively. After two years of planting, the three cultivation patterns all promote the soil nutrient content. Compared to the FP treatment, PM and BM treatments increase the organic matter content by 9.94% and 19.94%, respectively. (2) Ridge tillage with film mulching can evidently stimulate the growth of lucerne and enhance yield and quality. Compared to the FP treatment, PM and BM treatments enhance plant height by an average of 15.37% and 4.04%, stem diameter by an average of 34.14% and 14.58%, yield by an average of 21.20% and 14.77%, crude protein content by an average of 13.47% and 7.68%, and relative feed value by an average of 8.71% and 4.41%, respectively. (3) During the two-year growing period, the irrigation amount of lucerne was 508.60–615.30 mm, and the evapotranspiration was 563.70–761.80 mm. Compared to the FP treatment, PM and BM treatments hoist water use efficiency by an average of 43.50% and 17.56%, nitrogen partial factor productivity by an average of 21.20% and 15.22%, and net income by an average of 14.78% and 11.05%, respectively. In summary, in ridge tillage, both ordinary film mulching and biodegradable film mulching can create a favorable soil environment for lucerne growth and heighten production effect. The former has a better effect on advancing the lucerne production effect, and the latter exhibits superior performance in improving soil fertility. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Wolfberry (Lycium barbarum L.) production in arid and semi-arid areas is drastically affected by the low utilization rate of soil and water resources and the irrational application of water and nitrogen fertilizers. Thus, this study explored a high-yielding, high-quality, and efficient irrigation and nitrogen regulation model to promote the production efficiency of wolfberry and rational utilization of water and land resources in arid and semi-arid areas. We compared and analyzed the effects of different soil water treatments (the upper and lower limits of soil water were estimated as the percentage of soil water content to field water capacity (θ
f ), with the following irrigation regimen: adequate irrigation (W0, 75–85% θf ), mild water deficit (W1, 65–75% θf ), moderate water deficit (W2, 55–65% θf ), and severe water deficit (W3, 45–55% θf )) and nitrogen levels (no nitrogen (N0, 0 kg·ha−1 ), low nitrogen (N1, 150 kg·ha−1 ), moderate nitrogen (N2, 300 kg·ha−1 ), and high nitrogen (N3, 450 kg·ha−1 )) on the growth, physiology, and production of wolfberry. The results showed that water regulation, nitrogen application level, and their interaction significantly affected plant height and stem diameter growth amount (p < 0.05). Additionally, the relative chlorophyll content of wolfberry leaves first increased and then decreased with increasing nitrogen levels and water deficit. The average net photosynthetic rate (Pn ), stomatal conductance (gs ), intercellular carbon dioxide concentration, and transpiration rate (Tr ) reached the highest values in plants exposed to W0N2 (19.86 μmmol·m−2 ·s−1 ), W1N1 (182.65 mmol·m−2 ·s−1 ), W2N2 (218.86 μmol·mol−1 ), and W0N2 (6.44 mmol·m−2 ·s−1 ) treatments, respectively. Pn , gs , and Tr were highly correlated with photosynthetically active radiation and water vapor pressure difference (goodness-of-fit: 0.366–0.828). Furthermore, water regulation and nitrogen levels exhibited significant effects on the yield and water- (WUE), and nitrogen-use efficiency (NUE) (p < 0.01), and their interactions exhibited significant effects on the yield, WUE, and nitrogen partial productivity of wolfberry plants (p < 0.05). Moreover, the contents of total sugar, polysaccharides, fats, amino acids, and proteins were the highest in W1N2, W1N2, W1N2, W2N3, and W0N2 treatments, respectively, which were increased by 3.32–16.93%, 7.49–54.72%, 6.5–45.89%, 11.12–86.16%, and 7.15–71.67%, respectively. Under different water regulations (except for the W3 condition) and nitrogen level treatments, the net income and input–output ratio of wolfberry were in the order W1 > W0 > W2 > W3 and N2 > N3 > N1 > N0. The TOPSIS method also revealed that the yield, quality, WUE, NUE, and economic benefits of wolfberry improved under the W1N2 treatment, suggesting that WIN2 might be the most suitable irrigation and nitrogen regulation model for wolfberry production in regions with scarce land and water resources such as the Gansu Province and areas with similar climate.

Scientific selection of appropriate herbage planting management mode is an important guarantee to promote artificial grassland development and grassland productivity. In this study, three-year-old alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) and bromus inermis were applied to analyze the effects of planting patterns (bromus inermis and alfalfa mixed-sowing D1, bromus inermis mono-sowing D2), nitrogen application (pure nitrogen) level (N1: 60 kg·ha
−1 , N2: 120 kg·ha−1 ), and water regulation (upper and lower limits of irrigation are calculated as a percentage of field capacity θf , W1: slight water deficit 65~85% θf , W2: moderate water deficit 55~85% θf , W3: serious water deficit 45~85% θf ) on herbage growth and water-nitrogen use efficiency. This research applied the principal component analysis, the TOPSIS model, and the combination evaluation to evaluate each treatment. Results demonstrated that (1) the plant height, leaf area index, and yield of mixed-sowing herbage were 81.63%, 119.52%, and 111.51%, higher than the mono-sowing herbage. Increasing the amount of irrigation and nitrogen application could enhance herbage yield. The herbage yield with the W1N2 treatment was the highest. In this treatment, the mixed-sowing herbage yield was 26,050.73 kg·ha−1 , and the mono-sowing herbage yield was 12,186.10 kg·ha−1 . (2) The crude protein content of mixed-sowing herbage increased by 41.44%, higher than mono-sowing herbage, and the relative feeding value decreased by 16.34%. Increasing irrigation and nitrogen application could improve the quality of herbage. Meanwhile, the quality of herbage treated with W1N2 was the best. (3) The water use efficiency (WUE), irrigation water use efficiency (IWUE), partial factor productivity of nitrogen (PFPN ), and crude protein water use efficiency (CPWUE ) of mixed-sowing herbage were significantly higher than mono-sowing herbage. The PFPN and the CPWUE of herbage improved with increasing irrigation amount. Meanwhile, the WUE, the IWUE, and the CPWUE of herbage also improved with increasing nitrogen application amount. The results showed that mixed-sowing of alfalfa and bromus inermis with slight water deficit (upper and lower limit of irrigation was 65~85% θf ) and nitrogen application (120 kg·ha−1 ) could have the best comprehensive production effect. At the same time, it was a planting and management mode of high yield, high quality, and high efficiency of artificial herbage in the oasis-desert interlacing area of Hexi, Gansu Province, China, and areas with similar climates.

This study was about the water-nitrogen regulation model and its soil nutrient environment effect for increasing the yield and efficiency of Bromus inermis in the Hexi Corridor, Gansu Province, China. Bromus inermis was used as the research object in this study and four irrigation management types and four nitrogen application levels were set. The four irrigation management types (controlled by the percentage of field capacity (θ
f ) at the jointing stage) were 75–85% (W0), 65–85% (W1), 55–85% (W2) and 45–85% (W3). The four nitrogen application levels were pure nitrogen 0 kg·ha−1 (N0), 60 kg·ha−1 (N1), 120 kg·ha−1 (N2) and 180 kg·ha−1 (N3). The effects of water-nitrogen regulation on the spatial and temporal distribution of soil moisture and nitrate nitrogen (NO3 − –N), plant height, chlorophyll content, yield and water-nitrogen use efficiency of Bromus inermis were studied. Results demonstrated that (1) soil water content (SWC) was mainly affected by irrigation and W1 treatment helped maintain shallow soil (0–40 cm) water's stability and avoided water redundancy or deficit in the 60–80 cm soil layer. The distribution of soil NO3 − –N was mainly affected by nitrogen application. The N2 treatment could effectively increase the NO3 − –N content in shallow soil (0–40 cm) and prevent nitrate-nitrogen leaching in the 60–100 cm soil layer. (2) Irrigation and nitrogen application could significantly increase the plant height and chlorophyll content of each cut of Bromus inermis. The average plant height and chlorophyll content of the N2W1 treatment were 66.99% and 30.30% higher than N0W3. (3) At the same time, irrigation and nitrogen application could significantly increase the yield of each cut of Bromus inermis, and the interaction between the two had a significant effect on the total yield. The total yield of the N2W1 treatment was the highest (12,259.54 kg·ha−1 ), 157.95% higher than N0W3. Irrigation and nitrogen application could significantly improve the water-nitrogen use efficiency of Bromus inermis, and their interaction only significantly impacted the partial-factor productivity of the applied nitrogen (PFPN ). Meanwhile, the N2W2 treatment had the highest water use efficiency (WUE) (23.12 kg·m−3 ), and the N1W1 treatment had the highest PFPN (170.87 kg·kg−1 ). In summary, the moderate nitrogen application rate (120 kg·ha−1 ) combined with mild water deficit (65–85% θf at the jointing stage) could not only promote the high yield of Bromus inermis, but also avoid the leaching of water and nitrogen in deep soil. It is a suitable water and nitrogen management mode for Bromus inermis in the Hexi Corridor of Gansu Province, China. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]- Published

Appropriate planting and nitrogen application patterns to support high-quality production of cultivated forage in light of issues of water scarcity, extensive field husbandry, and low productivity in cultivated grassland planting areas were investigated in this study. Using Medicago sativa L. (alfalfa) as the research object, this study analyzed the effects of planting patterns (conventional flat planting (FP) and ridge culture with film mulching (RM)) and nitrogen level (N0: 0 kg·ha
−1 , N1: 80 kg·ha−1 , N2: 160 kg·ha−1 , N3: 240 kg·ha−1 ) on the growth, yield, quality (crude protein content (CP), acid detergent fiber content (ADF), neutral detergent fiber content (NDF), and relative feeding value (RFV)), the water–nitrogen use efficiency, and economic benefits (EB) of alfalfa in the year of establishment. Results demonstrated that (1) RM might greatly increase the growth of alfalfa when compared to FP. The plant height, stem diameter, and leaf:stem ratio of alfalfa all increased under the same planting patterns before decreasing as the nitrogen application rate (NAR) increased. (2) Appropriate NAR combined with RM could improve the yield and quality of alfalfa. Compared with other treatments, the yield, CP, and RFV under RMN2 treatment increased by 5.9~84.9%, 4.9~28.6%, and 19.6~49.3%, respectively, and the ADF and NDF decreased by 14.0~27.6% and 13.0~26.1%, respectively. (3) Under the same nitrogen level, RM showed better performance than FP in terms of water use efficiency (WUE), irrigation water use efficiency (IWUE), precipitation use efficiency (PUE), partial factor productivity of nitrogen (PFPN), agronomic nitrogen use efficiency (ANUE), and EB of alfalfa. Under the same planting pattern, PFPN decreased as the NAR increased, while WUE, IWUE, PUE, ANUE, and EB first increased and then decreased as the NAR increased and reached a maximum value under the N2 condition. In conclusion, the RM planting pattern combined with a nitrogen level of 160 kg·ha−1 can significantly promote alfalfa growth as well as the yield, quality, water–nitrogen use efficiency, and EB of alfalfa, making it a suitable planting management mode for alfalfa production in the Yellow River irrigation region in Gansu Province, China and areas with similar climate.

The hydrogen embrittlement (HE) susceptibility and hydrogen permeation behavior of reeling-pipeline welded joint with/without cyclic plastic deformation (CPD) were studied using the electrochemical hydrogen charging technique. Results indicated that the surface of welded joint emerged hydrogen-induced damage containing cracks and blisters. The degree of hydrogen-induced damage increased with the increase of hydrogen charging time and current density. When the hydrogen charging current density and time was 50 mA/cm2 and 4 h, respectively, the area ratio of hydrogen-induced damage of overall welded joint with CPD process was reduced from 6.61% to 2.28%, and the damage ratio of different sub-zones in welded joint was also decreased. The oxidized inclusions enriching Al–Mg–Ca elements acted as the initiation sites for hydrogen-induced damages. The effective diffusion coefficient of as-welded joint was 2.63 × 10−6 cm2/s, while that of welded joint with CPD showed a smaller value of 1.36 × 10−6 cm2/s. The welded joint with CPD process presented better resistance to HE, which was attributed to the increased density of hydrogen traps and the formation of dislocation cells to disperse hydrogen uniformly and reduce the possibility of local accumulation and recombination of diffusible hydrogen. Sub-zones in welded joint without CPD process were considerably more sensitive to hydrogen-induced damage, which indicated the important role of microstructure and dislocation density in HE mechanisms. The order of HE susceptibility from low to high was weld metal, base metal and heat affected zone. • Cyclic plastic deformation (CPD) reduced the hydrogen embrittlement susceptibility. • CPD reduced the diffusion coefficient of hydrogen in welded joint and its sub-zones. • The cellular dislocation configuration restricted the diffusibility of hydrogen. • The order of increasing susceptibility to hydrogen embrittlement was WM, BM and HAZ.

- Abstract
Resource-based water shortages, uncoordinated irrigation, and fertilization are prevalent challenges in agricultural production. The scientific selection of appropriate water and fertilizer management methods is important for improving the utilization efficiency of agricultural resources and alleviating agricultural non-point source pollution. This study focused on wolfberry and compared the effects of four irrigation levels [full irrigation (W0, 75%-85% θ
f ), slight water deficit (W1, 65%-75% θf ), moderate water deficit (W2, 55%-65% θf ), and severe water deficit (W3, 45%-55% θf )] and four nitrogen application levels [no nitrogen application (N0, 0 kg·ha-1 ), low nitrogen application (N1, 150 kg·ha-1 ), medium nitrogen application (N2, 300 kg·ha-1 ), and high nitrogen application (N3, 450 kg·ha-1 )] on soil nitrate nitrogen (NO3 - -N) transport, plant nitrogen allocation, and soil nitrous oxide (N2 O) emissions during the harvest period of wolfberry. And this study used CRITIC-entropy weights-TOPSIS model to evaluate 16 water and nitrogen regulation models comprehensively. The results revealed the following: (1) The NO3 - -N content of the soil decreased with increasing horizontal distance from the wolfberry. It initially decreased, then increased, and finally decreased with an increase in soil depth. The average NO3 - -N content in the 0-100 cm soil layer ranged from 3.95-13.29 mg·kg-1 , indicating that W0 > W1, W2, W3, and N3 > N2 > N1 > N0. (2) The soil NO3 - -N accumulation ranged from 64.45-215.27 kg·ha-1 under varying water and nitrogen levels, demonstrating a decreasing trend with increasing horizontal distance. The NO3 - -N accumulation at each horizontal distance increased with increasing irrigation and nitrogen application. The NO3 - -N accumulation of W0N3 treatment increased by 5.55%-57.60% compared with the other treatments. (3) The total nitrogen content and nitrogen uptake in all wolfberry organs were W1 > W0 > W2 > W3, and N2 > N3 > N1 > N0. The maximum total nitrogen content and nitrogen uptake in W1N2 treatment were 3.25% and 27.82 kg·ha-1 in the roots, 3.30% and 57.19 kg·ha-1 in the stems, 3.91% and 11.88 kg·ha-1 in the leaves, and 2.42% and 63.56 kg·ha-1 in the fruits, respectively. (4) The emission flux and total emission of N2 O increased with increasing irrigation and nitrogen application. The emission flux exhibited a transient peak (116.39-177.91 ug·m-2 ·h-1 ) after irrigation. The intensity of N2 O emissions initially decreased and then increased with an increase in the irrigation amount. It also initially increased with increasing nitrogen application amount, then decreased, and finally increased again. The maximum emission intensity was observed under the W3N3 treatment (0.23 kg·kg-1 ). The N2 O emission coefficients ranged from 0.17%-0.39%, in the order of W0 > W1 > W2 > W3 (except for N1) and N1 > N2 > N3. (5) Under varying water and nitrogen concentrations, N2 O emission flux showed a positive linear correlation with soil pore water content and NO3 - -N content and a negative linear correlation with soil temperature. The comprehensive evaluation revealed that a slight water deficit (65%-75% θf ) combined with medium nitrogen application (300 kg·ha-1 ) decreased soil NO3 - -N leaching, increased nitrogen uptake, and reduced N2 O emission. These findings can serve as a reference for improving the efficiency and reducing emissions of wolfberry in the Yellow River irrigation region of Gansu Province and in similar climate zones., Competing Interests: The authors declare that the research was conducted in the absence of any commercial or financial relationships that could be construed as a potential conflict of interest., (Copyright © 2024 Tian, Wang, Yin, Ma, Jia, Kang, Qi, Gao, Jiang, Li and Xiao.)- Published

- Abstract
Stroke often results in hemiparesis, impairing the patient's motor abilities and leading to upper extremity motor deficits that require long-term training and assessment. However, existing methods for assessing patients' motor function rely on clinical scales that require experienced physicians to guide patients through target tasks during the assessment process. This process is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but the complex assessment process is also uncomfortable for patients and has significant limitations. For this reason, we propose a serious game that automatically assesses the degree of upper limb motor impairment in stroke patients. Specifically, we divide this serious game into a preparation stage and a competition stage. In each stage, we construct motor features based on clinical a priori knowledge to reflect the ability indicators of the patient's upper limbs. These features all correlated significantly with the Fugl-Meyer Assessment for Upper Extremity (FMA-UE), which assesses motor impairment in stroke patients. In addition, we design membership functions and fuzzy rules for motor features in combination with the opinions of rehabilitation therapists to construct a hierarchical fuzzy inference system to assess the motor function of upper limbs in stroke patients. In this study, we recruited a total of 24 patients with varying degrees of stroke and 8 healthy controls to participate in the Serious Game System test. The results show that our Serious Game System was able to effectively differentiate between controls, severe, moderate, and mild hemiparesis with an average accuracy of 93.5%.
