The current velocity is assumed to be uniform over depth and of the same magnitude as the shallow water wave celerity. The wave velocity field is expressed in terms of the horizontal and vertical wave velocity components at an arbitrary water depth level. Linear operators are introduced to improve the accuracy of the kinematic condition at the sea bottom. The dynamic and kinematic conditions at the free surface are expressed in terms of wave velocity variables defined directly on the free surface. The new equations provide high accuracy of linear properties as well as nonlinear properties from shallow to deep water, and extend the applicable range of relative water depth in the case of opposing currents.展开更多

AF is associated with atrial conduction disturbances caused by electrical and / or structural remodeling. But the role of connexin （Cx） 43 in the regulation of L type calcium channel （LCC） remains unclear. We hypothesized that Cx 43 might co-localize and regulate the L type calcium channel current （ICa, D. Methods Real-time PCR and whole-cell patch clamp were used to detect the expression of LCC lc subunit and the cur rent density of Ica, L, before and after Cx 43 knocking down respectively. The co-localization of Cx 43 with LCC was investigated by co-immunoprecipitation and confocal microscopy. Results Knocking down of Cx43 significantly inhibited the current density of ICa, L through decreasing the gene expression of LCC alc in cul tured atrium-derived myocytes （HL-1 cells）. Cx43 co-localized with LCC eric subunit in atrial myocytes. Conclusions Cx 43 regulates the ICa, L in atrial myoctyes through LCC, representing a potential pathogenic mechanism in atrial arrhythmias.展开更多

By theoretically analyzing transmission characteristics of multi type current transformers and their influence factors, we study the dynamic model testing method of multi type current transformers for the bus, and design 3 kinds of testing schemes by making the equivalent model based on the field of P-level current transformer, TPY-level current transformer and electronic current transformer, and build the hybrid operation testing platform of multi type current transformers. Finally, we compare and analyze the transmission characteristics difference of multi type current transformers on the same branch and the characteristics difference of hybrid operation in two successive external faults, analyze the cause behind the differences, and put forward the corresponding improvement measures.展开更多

The aim of this study was to explore the effect of exogenous phosphocreatine with different concentration on L-type calcium（I Cc-L） current in ischemic ventricular myocytes of guinea pig and to investigate its underlying electrophysiological mechanism for the treatment of ischemic HF. Methods Single ventricular myocytes were isolated enzymatically from left ventricle of guinea pig. Peak I Ca-L current were recorded using patch clamp techniques in the whole-cell configuration when myocytes had been superfused with normal Tyrode solution, simple ischemic solution, ischemic solution containing phosphocreatine with different concentration for 10 minutes respectively. Results Peak I Ca-L current density of myocytes superfused with simple simulated ischemic solution was remarkably inhibited by 80.6 ± 5.2% compared with myocytes superfused with normal Tyrode solution（P〈0.05）. Ischemic solution containing phosphocreatine of 5, 10, 20, 30mmol/L inhibited Peak I Ca-L current density by （53.8±6.7）%, （41.8 ± 8.2）%, （38.1±7.4）%, （36.6±9.7）% respectively. There was no statistical significance among phosphocreation of 10, 20, 30 mmol / L. Conclusions Extrogenous phosphocreatine could reverse the inhibition of I Ca-L current under ischemic condition, which could be the ionic basis for the treatment of ischemic heart failure. 0-10 mmol/L phosphocreatine exerted significant dose-effect relationship which no longer existed as concentration more than 10 mmol/L. It is supposed that phosphocreatine increased I Ca-L current by many pathways rather than simple substrate for ATP synthesis.展开更多

The crowbar circuit consists of a computer control circuit, a trigger voltage pulse generator, a main discharging switch, and a crowbar pseudospark switch. The active trigger technology was studied in the crowbar impulse current circuit. The circuit monitors the main discharging current and generates a trigger signal at a proper time for the crowbar pseudospark switch operation. The trigger characteristics of the main discharge switch and the crowbar pseu- dospark switch were investigated. By monitoring the preset applied capacitor voltage, the gap distance of the main discharging switch could be adjusted to ensure a discharging delay time less than 2 μs. Equipped with a surface ttashover trigger device made of high relative perimittivity dielectric material BaTiO3 （εr = 3460）, the discharge delay time of the crowbar pseudospark switch is less than 85 ns, and the minimum operating voltage is less than 1% of its self-breakdown voltage. With a storage capacitor of 9 μF , an inductor of 18 μH and a crowbar pseudospark switch, a load of 30 mΩ and an applied capacitor voltage of 40 kV, an impulse current waveform of maximum 25 kA was generated with a rise time and time to half peak value of 17.2 μs and 336μs respectively.展开更多

Most gold deposits are small or occur as ore spots; very large deposits are rare with relatively poor quality, mainly medium to low grade. Only 35% of the total gold reserves is identified, while a large amount of reserves is yet to be identified. In recent years, China Geological Survey has organized or conducted mineral resources survey and evaluation project, replacement resources prospecting for deposits in crisis, old mines prospecting and commercial prospecting funded or encouraged by the Central Government. These efforts have been fruitful. According to the temporal and spatial allocation of gold resources, and experiences from recent prospecting efforts, western China and the deep layers and peripheries of the-sits in eastern China have relatively high prospecting potential. The government should give even more support to the gold industry and strengthen technological innovation to help address difficulties in gold exploitation and processing. The government should also formulate consistent plans, consolidate mining rights, and promote integrated exploration, so as to achieve new major breakthroughs in gold prospecting. Gold is both a form of material wealth and a way of storing wealth. It is a rare resource with dual functions of commodity and currency. As an important global strategic asset and a cornerstone of financial reserves, gold plays an irreplaceable role in securing national economic development, maintaining financial security, strengthening national comprehensive power and promoting RMB internationalization. Based on latest research and prospecting results, the thesis proposes preliminary conclusions on types, temporal and spatial allocation, and exploration and development of gold deposits in China; predicts China＇s gold resource potential; reviews recent gold prospecting and exploration efforts; and, in the hope of offering some reference for the new round of gold prospecting, exploration and planning, offers some suggestions.展开更多

Method: The Dean’s Method is applied to investigate on the fluorotic teeth of locally-born children aged between 8 to 12;investigate how modified cooking stoves are utilized by households and how food maize and hot pepper are being dried;and test the urinary fluorine content and pepper fluorine content. Result: The investigations show that, in the 661 villages with illness history from the 100 townships of 13 districts in Chongqing City, 11.28% (7464/ 66,162) of the children aged between 8 and 12 suffer from dental fluorosis;the stoves modified rate, qualified rate of modified stoves, and correct utilization rate of qualified modified stoves are respectively 100%, 98.82%, and 99.45%;and food maize and hot pepper’s drying rates are respectively 99.88% and 99.75%. Conclusion: The result shows that the coal-burning type fluorosis prevalence in the endemic area of Chongqing City has decreased dramatically, the preventive measure is effectively implemented, and a long-term preventive mechanism has preliminarily been established.展开更多
