It is...The phase composition, phase transition and phase structure transformation of the wire-cut section of functionally graded WC-Co cemented carbide with dual phase structure were investigated by XRD phase analysis. It is shown that the composition of η phase in the core zone is Co_3W_3C (M_6 C type). The structure of cobalt based solid solution binder phase is fcc type. At the cooling stage of the sintering process, the phase transition of η phase, i.e. M_6C→M_12C and the martensitic phase transition of the cobalt based solid solution binder phase, i.e. fcc→hcp are suppressed, which facilitates the strengthening of the alloy. Because the instantaneous temperature of the discharge channel is as high as 10 000 ℃ during the wire cutting process, the processed surface is oxidized. Nevertheless, the oxide layer thickness is in micro grade. In the oxide film, η phase is decomposed into W_2C and CoO, and cobalt based solid solution binder is selectively oxidized, while WC remains stable due to the existence of carbon containing liquid organic cutting medium.展开更多

The thermal shock experiment of FG-TBCs specimens was carried out by means of the automatic thermal cycle device, in which the samples were heated to 1200℃ by oxygen-acetylene flame jet then water-quenched to ambient temperature. The temperature—time curves of specimens and photographs can be watched on-line and recorded by a computer during the test. The results show that the totally 1mm-thick FG-TBCs have excellent thermal shock resistance due to the fact that the coatings have no any peeling-off after 200 thermal cycles. The microstructures and morphologies of FG-TBCs were characterized and analyzed by SEM.展开更多

Vanillin was selected to be the start material to produce new monomer called vanillin acrylate and abbreviated by (VA). It has been successfully investigated by 1H, 13C NMR, IR and UV and all results were in logic state. The next step was to synthetize three different thermo-responsive functional copolymers by incorporation of three different molar ratios of vanillin acrylate (10, 20, 30 mol%) with N-Isopropylacrylamide via free radical polymerization by AIBN as initiator in solution. All copolymers were deduced by 1NMR and IR and all showed the presence of aldehyde group. The copolymer was used for grafting of tryptophan and β-alanine through the chemical link between amino group and the active aldehyde group by click reactions to form Schiff’s base imine compounds. Moreover, polymers were also elucidated by 1HNMR, IR and UV, Size Exclusion Chromatography (SEC) was used for the molecular weight determination, differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) for glass temperature of solid polymers, XRD for crystallinity. UV-vis Spectroscopy was used for the determination of phase separation or the lower critical solution temperature (Tc) of polymers solution not only in deionized water but in pH5 and pH11. The mount of conversation and linked amino acid was determined by UV-vis Spectroscopy.展开更多

Methods: a total of 48 stroke patients who were hospitalized in Beijing Rehabilitation Hospital of Capital Medical University from October 2020 to April 2021 and met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were randomly divided into intervention group (n=24) and control group (n=24). The control group received routine rehabilitation training. The intervention group received cognitive-motor dual task training on the basis of routine rehabilitation training, and the training time and frequency were the same for the two groups. The intervention training lasted for 8 weeks. Changes in patients' balance function and ADL were assessed before and after 8 weeks of intervention, including Berg Balance Scale, Fugl-Meyer Balance Scale and ADL score. Changes in scores of each test were recorded for statistical analysis. Results: after the end of the experiment, intervention group 2 and control group all completed the study 8 weeks after intervention, intervention group and control group showed significant improvement in the three tests compared with before intervention. When standing up while sitting and standing without support, the Berg balance scale score of intervention group was significantly higher than that of control group. Fugl-Meyer and ADL scores of the intervention group under the dual task were significantly higher than those of the control group. After three tests, statistical analysis showed that the differences were statistically significant (P <0.05). Conclusion: the cognitive-motor dual task training can improve the balance function and ADL of stroke patients, and the dual task training combined with the routine rehabilitation training is more conducive to the recovery of balance function of patients, so as to improve the ADL.展开更多

Voxel counts and blood oxygenation level-dependent signal intensities in the right primary sensorimotor cortex regions were estimated and compared between the two transcranial direct current stimulation conditions.Our results showed that dual-hemispheric transcranial direct current stimulation induced greater cortical activities than single-hemispheric transcranial direct current stimulation.These findings suggest that dual-hemispheric transcranial direct current stimulation may provide more effective cortical stimulation than single-hemispheric transcranial direct current stimulation.展开更多

This paper proposed a method to detect the trace amounts of BPA in water samples by fully utilizing the enrichment and resonance amplification functions of a new dual-functional membrane. In this work, gold nanoparticles （AuNPs） modified by 3-amino-5-mercapto-1,2,4-triazole （AMT） were embedded in nylon66 membrane to produce a dual-functional membrane which could carry out sample enrichment by capturing BPA molecules from water and achieve resonance amplification by connecting BPA to the surfaces of AuNPs. By designing an automatic sampler for large-volume enrichment, the SERS enhancement factor （EF） of the method was further improved to 1.2 × 105. The present method had been successfully applied to detect BPA in drinking water and environmental water by SERS with the detection limit of 0.012 μg/L. It had the potential for on-site detecting of BPA in various water samples.展开更多

文摘A fluorescent active organic–inorganic hybrid material Py N-SBA-15 was synthesized by implementing pyrene derivatives into mesoporous SBA-15 silica.Py N-SBA-15 had detection and removal functionalities toward Al^(3+),Cu^(2+),and Hg^(2+).On the one hand,Py N-SBA-15 was used as a fluorescence sensor and displayed high sensitivity toward Al^(3+),Cu^(2+),and Hg^(2+)cations (limit of detection:8.0×10^(-7),1.1×10^(-7),and 2.9×10^(-6)mol·L^(–1),respectively) among various analytes with“turn-off”response.On the other hand,the adsorption studies for these toxic analytes (Cu^(2+),Hg^(2+),and Al^(3+)) showed that the ion removal capacity could reach up to 45,581,and 85 mg·g^(-1),respectively.Moreover,the Langmuir isotherm models were better fitted with the adsorption data,indicating that the adsorption was mono-layer adsorption.Kinetic analysis revealed that the adsorption process was well described by the pseudo-second-order kinetic model for Cu^(2+)and Hg^(2+)and pseudo-first-order kinetic model for Al^(3+).The prepared silica material could be reused in four recycles without significantly decreasing its adsorption capacity.Therefore,the Py N-SBA-15 material can serve as a promising candidate for the simultaneous rapid detection and efficient adsorption of metal ions.
文摘A family of Said-Bézier type generalized Ball （SBGB） bases and surfaces with a parameter H over triangular domain is introduced,which unifies Bézier surface and Said-Ball surface and includes several intermediate surfaces. To convert different bases and surfaces,the dual functionals of bases are presented. As an application of dual functionals,the subdivision formulas for surfaces are established.
文摘In this paper,we proved that the infinitesimal generator of a strongly continuous cosine operator function is preserved under the time-dependent perturbation in the sun-reflexive case,where the perturbed operator is a bounded linear operator from X into a bigger space Xθ(not X),then the corresponding 2-order abstract Cauchy problem is uniformly well-posed.
文摘This article reports on the synthesis of acrylate monomer from renewable material. Vanillin was selected to be the start material to produce new monomer called vanillin acrylate and abbreviated by (VA). It has been successfully investigated by 1H, 13C NMR, IR and UV and all results were in logic state. The next step was to synthetize three different thermo-responsive functional copolymers by incorporation of three different molar ratios of vanillin acrylate (10, 20, 30 mol%) with N-Isopropylacrylamide via free radical polymerization by AIBN as initiator in solution. All copolymers were deduced by 1NMR and IR and all showed the presence of aldehyde group. The copolymer was used for grafting of tryptophan and β-alanine through the chemical link between amino group and the active aldehyde group by click reactions to form Schiff’s base imine compounds. Moreover, polymers were also elucidated by 1HNMR, IR and UV, Size Exclusion Chromatography (SEC) was used for the molecular weight determination, differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) for glass temperature of solid polymers, XRD for crystallinity. UV-vis Spectroscopy was used for the determination of phase separation or the lower critical solution temperature (Tc) of polymers solution not only in deionized water but in pH5 and pH11. The mount of conversation and linked amino acid was determined by UV-vis Spectroscopy.

文摘Integrated CO_(2)capture and utilization(ICCU)technology requires dual functional materials(DFMs)to carry out the process in a single reaction system.The influence of the calcination atmosphere on efficiency of 4%Ru-8%Na_(2)CO_(3)-8%CaO/γ-Al_(2)O_(3)DFM is studied.The adsorbent precursors are first co-impregnated onto alumina and calcined in air.Then,Ru precursor is impregnated and four aliquotes are subjected to different calcination protocols:static air in muffle or under different mixtures(10%H_(2)/N_(2),50%H_(2)/N_(2)and N_(2))streams.Samples are characterized by XRD,N_(2)adsorption-desorption,H_(2)chemisorption,TEM,XPS,H_(2)-TPD,H_(2)-TPR,CO_(2)-TPD and TPSR.The catalytic behavior is evaluated,in cycles of CO_(2)adsorption and hydrogenation to CH_(4),and temporal evolution of reactants and products concentrations is analyzed.The calcination atmosphere influences the physicochemical properties and,ultimately,activity of DFMs.Characterization data and catalytic performance discover the acccomodation of Ru nanoparticles disposition and basic sites is mostly influencing the catalytic activity.DFM calcined under N_(2)flow(RuNaCa-N_(2))shows the highest CH_(4)production(449μmol/g at 370℃),because a well-controlled decomposition of precursors which favors the better accomodation of adsorbent and Ru phases,maximizing the specific surface area,the Ru-basic sites interface and the participation of different basic sites in the CO_(2)methanation reaction.Thus,the calcination in a N_(2)flow is revealed as the optimal calcination protocol to achieve highly efficient DFM for integrated CO_(2)adsorption and hydrogenation applications.
文摘Starting from the hydroxylamine (dimethyl amino ethanol, triethanolamine) and 1,3-propane sultone, a series of hydroxyl and sulfonyl dual-functionalized zwitterionic salts and corresponding acidic room temperature ionic liquids have been synthesized. The hydroxyl groups of the synthesized substances were confirmed by the 1H NMR measurement. These zwitterionic salts and ionic liquids may be used for synthesizing other functionalized ionic liquids or ionic liquid-polymer (polyelectrolyte).
文摘Objective: to investigate the effects of cognitive-motor dual task training on balance function and Activities of daily living (ADL) in stroke patients, so as to improve the quality of life and adaptability of stroke patients after returning to community life. Methods: a total of 48 stroke patients who were hospitalized in Beijing Rehabilitation Hospital of Capital Medical University from October 2020 to April 2021 and met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were randomly divided into intervention group (n=24) and control group (n=24). The control group received routine rehabilitation training. The intervention group received cognitive-motor dual task training on the basis of routine rehabilitation training, and the training time and frequency were the same for the two groups. The intervention training lasted for 8 weeks. Changes in patients' balance function and ADL were assessed before and after 8 weeks of intervention, including Berg Balance Scale, Fugl-Meyer Balance Scale and ADL score. Changes in scores of each test were recorded for statistical analysis. Results: after the end of the experiment, intervention group 2 and control group all completed the study 8 weeks after intervention, intervention group and control group showed significant improvement in the three tests compared with before intervention. When standing up while sitting and standing without support, the Berg balance scale score of intervention group was significantly higher than that of control group. Fugl-Meyer and ADL scores of the intervention group under the dual task were significantly higher than those of the control group. After three tests, statistical analysis showed that the differences were statistically significant (P <0.05). Conclusion: the cognitive-motor dual task training can improve the balance function and ADL of stroke patients, and the dual task training combined with the routine rehabilitation training is more conducive to the recovery of balance function of patients, so as to improve the ADL.
文摘The present work is devoted to define a generalized Green’s function solution for the dual-phase-lag model in homogeneous materials in a unified manner .The high-order mixed derivative with respect to space and time which reflect the lagging behavior is treated in special manner in the dual-phase-lag heat equation in order to construct a general solution applicable to wide range of dual-phase-lag heat transfer problems of general initial-boundary conditions using Green’s function solution method. Also, the Green’s function for a finite medium subjected to arbitrary heat source and arbitrary initial and boundary conditions is constructed. Finally, four examples of different physical situations are analyzed in order to illustrate the accuracy and potentialities of the proposed unified method. The obtained results show good agreement with works of [1-4].

文摘We performed functional MRI examinations in six right-handed healthy subjects.During functional MRI scanning,transcranial direct current stimulation was delivered with the anode over the right primary sensorimotor cortex and the cathode over the left primary sensorimotor cortex using dual-hemispheric transcranial direct current stimulation.This was compared to a cathode over the left supraorbital area using conventional single-hemispheric transcranial direct current stimulation. Voxel counts and blood oxygenation level-dependent signal intensities in the right primary sensorimotor cortex regions were estimated and compared between the two transcranial direct current stimulation conditions.Our results showed that dual-hemispheric transcranial direct current stimulation induced greater cortical activities than single-hemispheric transcranial direct current stimulation.These findings suggest that dual-hemispheric transcranial direct current stimulation may provide more effective cortical stimulation than single-hemispheric transcranial direct current stimulation.

文摘Bisphenol A （BPA） was one of the environmental hormones that would cause endocrine and metabolic disorders in human or wildlife. This paper proposed a method to detect the trace amounts of BPA in water samples by fully utilizing the enrichment and resonance amplification functions of a new dual-functional membrane. In this work, gold nanoparticles （AuNPs） modified by 3-amino-5-mercapto-1,2,4-triazole （AMT） were embedded in nylon66 membrane to produce a dual-functional membrane which could carry out sample enrichment by capturing BPA molecules from water and achieve resonance amplification by connecting BPA to the surfaces of AuNPs. By designing an automatic sampler for large-volume enrichment, the SERS enhancement factor （EF） of the method was further improved to 1.2 × 105. The present method had been successfully applied to detect BPA in drinking water and environmental water by SERS with the detection limit of 0.012 μg/L. It had the potential for on-site detecting of BPA in various water samples.
