By using biochemical technique, three proteins such as bovine serum albumin, bovine hemoglobin and pepsin were employed and their quarternary,tertiary and secondary protein structures were perturbed by the denaturing agent sodium do-decyl sulfate (SDS) solution, while their primary structures of protein were not changed. This means that only the structural features were altered and the chemical composition maintained unchanged. B/A has been measured by using improved thermodynamic method. The experi-mental results show that when the concentration of SDS solution increases, the alterations of the protein structure increase, and the contribution of protein to the B/A value decreases. Re-sults indicate that the B/A values can display the destruction of molecular structure of protein.Some explanation of these phenomena has also been made in this paper.展开更多

Experimental results show that under a uniform inflow condition without inlet flow distortion, a modal-type stall inception dominates in this low-speed compressor. When an inlet screen introducing hub distortion is used to increase the hub loading, a compressor stall is initiated by a modal wave, but large disturbances are present in the hub region before the compressor stall, which become stronger as the hub loading increases. Under high hub loading and large B parameter（implemented by adding hub distortion through an inlet screen and enlarging the outlet plenum volume, respectively）, a compressor stall is triggered by an axisymmetric hub-initiated disturbance, which is much different from the modal-like disturbances. The beginning of this axisymmetric disturbance may be captured over 800 rotor revolutions prior to the onset of stall, and the amplitude grows with time. The disturbance is hub-initiated because the disturbance signal at the hub is detected much earlier than that at the tip; meanwhile, the frequency of this axisymmetric disturbance changes with the length of the inlet duct. The characteristics of instability evolution in the low-speed compressor are also compared with those in a transonic compressor.展开更多

Based on this basis, we define the Bézier curves with shape parameter. The Bézier basis curves with shape parameter have most properties of Bernstein basis and the Bézier curves. Moreover the shape parameter can adjust the curves’ shape with the same control polygon. As the increase of the shape parameter, the Bézier curves with shape parameter approximate to the control polygon. In the last, the Bézier surface with shape parameter is also constructed and it has most properties of Bézier surface.展开更多

The nonlinear ultrasonic parameters, including pressure coefficient, temperature coefficients of ultrasonic velocity, and nonlinear acoustic parameter B/A in both organic liquid and binary organic liquid mixtures, are evaluated for comparison with the measured results and data from other sources. The equations show that the coefficient of ultrasonic velocity and nonlinear acoustic parameter B/A are closely related to molecular interactions. These nonlinear ultrasonic parameters reflect some information of internal structure and outside status of the medium or mixtures. From the exponent of repulsive forces of the molecules, several thermodynamic parameters, pressure and temperature of the medium, the nonlinear ultrasonic parameters and ultrasonic nature of the medium can be evaluated. When evaluating and studying nonlinear acoustic parameter B/A of binary organic liquid mixtures, there is no need to know the nonlinear acoustic parameter B/A of the components. Obviously, the equation reveals the connection between the nonlinear ultrasonic nature and internal structure and outside status of the mixtures more directly and distinctly than traditional mixture law for B/A, e.g. Apfel＇s and Sehgal＇s laws for liquid binary mixtures.展开更多

From the study of [1] and the relation between local magnitude and seismic signal duration, was performed a data analysis obtained in the same region, on the period between October/2007 and June/2008, in which we can estimate the equation MD = 2.153 (±0.072) LogD – 1.925 (±0.132) to calculate the magnitude of local duration. We can also estimate one value for the b parameter using the equation LogN = a – bMD from a frequency-magnitude study. It was found the value of b = 0.826 (±0.020) for the general activity of Itacarambi, MG, that is within the universal range proposed by [2].展开更多
