Meteorological extreme events or phenomena include tornadoes and tropical cyclones. The new high energy state of matter expanding outwards by spin jets from the two poles of an astronomical black hole, the new high energy state of matter in a funnel-shaped vortex showed a meteorological tornado expanding downwards from a rotated disk of cumulonimbus clouds, the new high energy state of matter in a tropical cyclone and the new high energy state of a nebulae system converging celestial materials are phenomena across disciplines and multiple time-space scales that have not yet been physically explained. In this paper, the theory of orthogonal collision in the rotational contraction continuum is used to unify the understanding of diverse extreme events or phenomena through a single dynamical mechanism, offering insights into natural processes across disciplines. In the field of astronomy, the orthogonal collision of two-beam rotating and contracting particles or stars associated with centripetal forces forms a new high-energy state of matter at the collision point and the new high-energy particles have expanding forces outward to both sides of the collision plane. In the field of meteorology, the orthogonal collision of multiple horizontally rotating and contracting airflows associated with centripetal forces forms a new high energy state of matter at the collision point as well as an updraft force and a downdraft force vertically. The updraft force and downdraft force formed by the collision of anomalous wet airflows in the lower atmosphere can well indicate tornado, thunderstorm and extreme precipitation. The orthogonal collision theory can be applied to explain new states of matter in disciplines from the astronomical scale to the meteorological scale and the Planck scale.展开更多

VSMCs actively remodel the arterial walls and dedifferentiate from the contractile to the synthetic phenotype under pathological conditions. The mechanism underlying phenotypic transition of VSMCs is important for understanding its role in the pathophysiology of disease. Although numerous studies have reported various biochemical pathways that stimulate the phenotypic transition of VSMCs, very little is known about relation between their phenotypic transition and cellular traction force, which affects many cellular functions. In this study, we induced the differentiation of cultured VSMCs from the synthetic to the contractile phenotype by a low-serum cultivation and investigated changes in the cell traction forces using traction force microscopy technique. The expression of α-SMA, a contractile phenotype marker protein, was significantly upregulated with maturation of actin stress fibers in the low-serum culture, indicating VSMC differentiation was promoted in our experiments. The cells changed their morphology to an elongated bipolar shape, and the direction of the cell traction forces tended to align in the direction of the cell’s major axis. Despite the promotion of contractile differentiation in VSMCs, the overall cell traction forces were significantly reduced, indicating that excessive cell mechanical tension, which might induce cell proliferation and migration, was suppressed during contractile differentiation. These results suggest that suppression of cell traction force and enhanced force polarity might be key factors in VSMC differentiation induced by low serum culture.展开更多

Methods: A finite element model was constructed after extracting the mandibular first premolar, and a long-arm bracket with a traction height of 6 mm was placed on the labial side of the mandibular canine. Three working conditions of 50 g, 100 g, and 150 g were simulated, and the magnitude and distribution of von Mises stress in the periodontal ligament were compared for each condition. Results: The maximum von Mises stress in the periodontal ligament was 0.013281 MPa in the 50 g condition, 0.02536 MPa in the 100 g condition, and 0.035549 MPa in the 150 g condition. As the orthodontic force increased, the stress distribution area in the periodontal ligament also expanded. Conclusion: A 100 g orthodontic force is the most suitable when using long-arm brackets, providing a relatively uniform stress distribution in the periodontal ligament and keeping the stress within a reasonable range.展开更多

文摘Due to batteries inconsistencies and potential faults in battery management systems,slight overcharging remains a common yet insufficiently understood safety risk,lacking effective warning methods.To illuminate the degradation behavior and failure mechanism of various overcharged states(100%SOC,105%SOC,110%SOC,and 115%SOC),multiple advanced in-situ characterization techniques(accelerating rate calorimeter,electrochemical impedance spectroscopy,ultrasonic scanning,and expansion instrument)were utilized.Additionally,re-overcharge-induced thermal runaway(TR)tests were conducted,with a specific emphasis on the evolution of the expansion force signal.Results indicated significant degradation at 110%SOC including conductivity loss,loss of lithium inventory,and loss of active material accompanied by internal gas generation.These failure behaviors slow down the expansion force rate during reovercharging,reducing the efficacy of active warnings that depend on rate thresholds of expansion force.Specifically,the warning time for 115%SOC battery is only 144 s,which is 740 s shorter than that for fresh battery,and the time to TR is advanced by 9 min.Moreover,the initial self-heating temperature(T1)is reduced by 62.4℃compared to that of fresh battery,reaching only 70.8℃.To address the low safety of overcharged batteries,a passive overcharge warning method utilizing relaxation expansion force was proposed,based on the continued gas generation after stopping charging,leading to a sustained increase in force.Compared to active methods that rely on thresholds of expansion force rate,the passive method can issue warnings 115 s earlier.By combining the passive and active warning methods,guaranteed effective overcharge warning can be issued 863-884 s before TR.This study introduces a novel perspective for enhancing the safety of batteries.
文摘Astronomical extreme events or phenomena include black holes as well as nebulae systems that resemble the Milky Way. Meteorological extreme events or phenomena include tornadoes and tropical cyclones. The new high energy state of matter expanding outwards by spin jets from the two poles of an astronomical black hole, the new high energy state of matter in a funnel-shaped vortex showed a meteorological tornado expanding downwards from a rotated disk of cumulonimbus clouds, the new high energy state of matter in a tropical cyclone and the new high energy state of a nebulae system converging celestial materials are phenomena across disciplines and multiple time-space scales that have not yet been physically explained. In this paper, the theory of orthogonal collision in the rotational contraction continuum is used to unify the understanding of diverse extreme events or phenomena through a single dynamical mechanism, offering insights into natural processes across disciplines. In the field of astronomy, the orthogonal collision of two-beam rotating and contracting particles or stars associated with centripetal forces forms a new high-energy state of matter at the collision point and the new high-energy particles have expanding forces outward to both sides of the collision plane. In the field of meteorology, the orthogonal collision of multiple horizontally rotating and contracting airflows associated with centripetal forces forms a new high energy state of matter at the collision point as well as an updraft force and a downdraft force vertically. The updraft force and downdraft force formed by the collision of anomalous wet airflows in the lower atmosphere can well indicate tornado, thunderstorm and extreme precipitation. The orthogonal collision theory can be applied to explain new states of matter in disciplines from the astronomical scale to the meteorological scale and the Planck scale.

文摘The undeformed chip thickness and grinding force are key parameters for revealing the material removal mechanism in the grinding process.However,they are difficult to be well expressed due to the ununiformed protrusion height and random position distribution of abrasive grains on the abrasive wheel surface.This study investigated the distribution of undeformed chip thickness and grinding force considering the non-uniform characteristics of abrasive wheel in the grinding of K4002 nickel-based superalloy.First,a novel grinding force model was established through a kinematic-geometric analysis and a grain-workpiece contact analysis.Then,a series of grinding experiments were conducted for verifying the model.The results indicate that the distribution of undeformed chip thickness is highly consistent with the Gaussian distribution formula.The increase in the grinding depth mainly leads to an increase in the average value of Gaussian distribution.On the contrary,the increase in the workpiece infeed speed or the decrease in the grinding speed mainly increases the standard deviation of Gaussian distribution.The average and maximum errors of the grinding force model are 4.9%and 14.6%respectively,indicating that the model is of high predication accuracy.
文摘Written feedback in English writing classes serves as the primary mode of feedback.By comparing direct corrective feedback and indirect corrective feedback in addressing content and form,this paper argues that indirect corrective feedback better aligns with the needs of English majors.Multiple factors influence the choice of written feedback methods,and teachers should carefully select the most appropriate approach based on student characteristics to maximize the effectiveness of feedback.
文摘Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) in the arterial walls play important roles in regulating vascular contraction and dilation. VSMCs actively remodel the arterial walls and dedifferentiate from the contractile to the synthetic phenotype under pathological conditions. The mechanism underlying phenotypic transition of VSMCs is important for understanding its role in the pathophysiology of disease. Although numerous studies have reported various biochemical pathways that stimulate the phenotypic transition of VSMCs, very little is known about relation between their phenotypic transition and cellular traction force, which affects many cellular functions. In this study, we induced the differentiation of cultured VSMCs from the synthetic to the contractile phenotype by a low-serum cultivation and investigated changes in the cell traction forces using traction force microscopy technique. The expression of α-SMA, a contractile phenotype marker protein, was significantly upregulated with maturation of actin stress fibers in the low-serum culture, indicating VSMC differentiation was promoted in our experiments. The cells changed their morphology to an elongated bipolar shape, and the direction of the cell traction forces tended to align in the direction of the cell’s major axis. Despite the promotion of contractile differentiation in VSMCs, the overall cell traction forces were significantly reduced, indicating that excessive cell mechanical tension, which might induce cell proliferation and migration, was suppressed during contractile differentiation. These results suggest that suppression of cell traction force and enhanced force polarity might be key factors in VSMC differentiation induced by low serum culture.

文摘Rail weld irregularities are one of the primary excitation sources for vehicle-track interaction dynamics in modern high-speed railways.They can cause significant wheel-rail dynamic interactions,leading to wheel-rail noise,component damage,and deterioration.Few researchers have employed the vehicle-track interaction dynamic model to study the dynamic interactions between wheel and rail induced by rail weld geometry irregularities.However,the cosine wave model used to simulate rail weld irregularities mainly focuses on the maximum value and neglects the geometric shape.In this study,novel theoretical models were developed for three categories of rail weld irregularities,based on measurements of the high-speed railway from Beijing to Shanghai.The vertical dynamic forces in the time and frequency domains were compared under different running speeds.These forces generated by the rail weld irregularities that were measured and modeled,respectively,were compared to validate the accuracy of the proposed model.Finally,based on the numerical study,the impact force due to rail weld irrregularity is modeled using an Artificial Neural Network(ANN),and the optimum combination of parameters for this model is found.The results showed that the proposed model provided a more accurate wheel/rail dynamic evaluation caused by rail weld irregularities than that established in the literature.The ANN model used in this paper can effectively predict the impact force due to rail weld irrregularity while reducing the computation time.
文摘Although substantial research shows the effectiveness of written corrective feedback(WCF)in treating simple grammar structures,more research is still needed to refute Truscott’s claim that WCF may not work on complex grammar structures.Similarly,a previous body of research has shown that the degree of explicitness of feedback moderates the efficacy of WCF.However,most WCF studies have systematically manipulated only direct corrective feedback.The current study was therefore conducted to fill these gaps in the literature.To this end,five intact classes of Functional English were recruited and later randomly assigned to four treatment groups:DCF,DCF+ME,ICF,and ICF+ME,and one control group that received no feedback.All the groups took part in three WCF treatment sessions,during which they wrote two different pieces:a news report and a picture description.Later,only the treatment groups received the WCF.The WCF’s effectiveness was measured by writing tests and grammaticality judgment tasks(GJT).The results demonstrated that WCF helped L2 learners improve their grammatical accuracy of passive voice tenses.The study further showed that the group that received the most explicit type of WCF fared better than the ones that received the least explicit type of WCF.Important pedagogical implications for ESL/EFL teachers are discussed.
文摘Objective: To compare the stress distribution in the periodontal ligament under different orthodontic forces during canine distalization using long-arm brackets, and to determine the optimal force value for this device in orthodontic treatment. Methods: A finite element model was constructed after extracting the mandibular first premolar, and a long-arm bracket with a traction height of 6 mm was placed on the labial side of the mandibular canine. Three working conditions of 50 g, 100 g, and 150 g were simulated, and the magnitude and distribution of von Mises stress in the periodontal ligament were compared for each condition. Results: The maximum von Mises stress in the periodontal ligament was 0.013281 MPa in the 50 g condition, 0.02536 MPa in the 100 g condition, and 0.035549 MPa in the 150 g condition. As the orthodontic force increased, the stress distribution area in the periodontal ligament also expanded. Conclusion: A 100 g orthodontic force is the most suitable when using long-arm brackets, providing a relatively uniform stress distribution in the periodontal ligament and keeping the stress within a reasonable range.
