This paper mainly focuses on evaluating the sediment separation efficiency of HWSSS in debris flow prevention and determining the grid opening width D, a crucial structure parameter for HWSSS design. Theoretical analysis on the total sediment separation rate Pt reveals that the efficiency of sediment separation is much related with sediment grain size distribution(GSD) and grid opening width. The lower limit of Pt is deduced from the perspective of safety consideration by transforming debris flow into sediment-laden flow. Hydraulic model tests were carried out. Based on the regression analysis of the experimental data, the quantitative relationships between Pt and D and GSD characteristic values were finally established. A procedure for determining optimal grid opening width is proposed based on these analyses. These results are of significance in evaluating sediment separation effect by HWSSS in debris flow prevention and contribute to a more explicit methodology for design of HWSSS.展开更多

The geometric nonlinearity is introduced into the dynamic equilibrium equations of structures. The disturbances on the structural surface caused by the air flow are simulated by a vortex layer with infinite thickness in the structures.

The vortex density is then obtained with the vortex lattice method considering the coupling boundary condition. From the analytical expressions of the unstable critical wind velocities, numerical results and some useful conclusions are obtained.

Treatment of Y（N（Si Me3）2）3 with one equivalent of H3bptd（H3bptd = 1,9-bis（2-pyrrolyl）-2,5,8-triazanona-1,8-diene） in THF gave a complex of composition [Y（bptd）（THF）]2（1）. Reaction of Y（N（Si Me3）2）3 with one equivalent of H3tpa（H3tpa = tris（pyrrolyl-α-methyl）amine） in THF generated [Y（tpa）（THF）3]（2） in good yield. Complexes 1and 2 have been characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, elemental analyses and NMR spectroscopy. Complex 1 is dinuclear. The two metal centers are doubly bridged by two amine nitrogen atoms to form a Y–N–Y–N four-membered rhombus ring. The geometries of Y^3＋ ions in 1and 2 are well described as pentagonal bipyramid and capped octahedron, respectively. The ring-opening polymerization reactions of ε-caprolactone initiated by 1 and 2, respectively, were investigated. They both exhibited good catalytic activity for the polymerization of ε-caprolactone. All of the obtained polymers have high molecular weights and relatively narrower PDIs. The polymers generated by 2 possessed polydispersity close to 1.1. The good catalytic activities of 1 and 2 reveal their potential applications in polymer industry.展开更多

Here, we report such an example and following up by modifying the solvothermal reaction conditions (temperature and time) it is possible to isolate the high mass species in crystalline form. [Zn_(4)L_(4)Cl_(4)] (Zn_(4)L_(4), L = N-methylbenzimidazole-2-methanolate) has a boat-like Zn_(4)O_(4) core but electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) of the solution of its crystals shows higher mass peaks of Zn_(5)L_(5), Zn_(5)L_(6) and Zn_(6)L_(6) species. Thus, both disassembly and reassembly are highly probable processes. Consequently, [Zn(HL)_(2)Cl_(2)] (Zn1, L = N-methylbenzimidazole-2-methanolate), [Zn_(4)L_(6)Cl_(2)] (Zn_(4)L_(6), L = N-methylbenzimidazole-2-methanolate) and [Zn_(6)L_(6)Cl_(4)(CH_(3)O)_(2)] (Zn_(6)L_(6), L = N-methylbenzimidazole-2-methanolate) were prepared. The results of multistage ESI-MS of their dissolved crystals led to a proposed mechanism of their formation in the gas phase as follows: [Zn_(3)L_(4)] through [ZnL] → [ZnL(HL)] → [Zn(HL)_(2)] → [Zn_(2)L] → [Zn_(2)L_(2)] → [Zn_(2)L_(3)]. The mechanism was derived in conjunction with Gibbs free energies calculated using DFT of the fragments observed in the ESI-MS of Zn_(4)L_(4), Zn_(4)L_(6) and Zn_(6)L_(6). This work reveals the complex of chemical reactions, involving fragmentation and unexpected combination, under mass spectrometry condition which allows one to synthesize the observed transients, leading to mechanism of formation by correlation of solid-state/solution structural information.展开更多

The effects of the width of the opening and the angle of incidence on the hydrodynamic characteristics of a rectangular structure with an opening near a vertical wall are mainly studied. The comparisons of the calculation results with wall-present and with wall-absent are also made. The results indicate that the variation trends of the heave added mass and excitation force with wall-present are almost the same as those with wall-absent, and that the peak values in the former case are obviously larger than those in the latter due to the reflection of the vertical wall.展开更多

The calculation models using the penetration of negative pressure method have been developed. The first calculation model is is for the construction stage involving three zones, namely, passive, transitional, and active established for the soil pressure in cabins. The other calculation model is based on the use stage, with the two （passive and active） zones for the soil pressure in cabins. The height of zones and the theoretical analytical solutions of inner soil pressure are derived. The analytical formulas of the models are proved using the finite element method and experimental data, and the formulas are analyzed in the inner soil pressure in the same condition. The calculation models can be used for other multi-position structural design or construction.展开更多

It facilitates the interpretation of detailed landforms on the Earth＇s surface. Compared with the layer stacking of ETM＋ with less three-dimensionality and visualizability and with indefinite details of linear images in the deep cutting or deep covered region, the Openness is used for accurate interpretation of tectonic geomorphic units and linear structures. In this paper, the ETM＋ images（741 RGB） and RRIM based on Openness combined with the field geological investigation are used to trace the escaping structure in SE Asia. The east boundary is Ailaoshan shear zone and the west boundary is Uttaradit-Dien Bien Phu fault, which together form the southwards extruding wedge block. The arc boundary surface of the southern Khorat Plateau is jutted to the north. The NW and NE sides of Khorat Plateau are traversed by Uttaradit-Dien Bien Phu fault and Thakhek-Da Nang fault, respectively, resulting in a blocked escaping structure. The SE margins of Truong Son structure belt and Song Ma structure belt are both arcs jutting to SE. These arc structures clamped by faults or related to the fault on one side indicating the material flow direction obviously, are the most specific manifestation of escaping structures. Moreover, these push units are extruded from south to north successively.展开更多

Consequently, [Zn(HL)_(2)Cl_(2)] (Zn1, L = N-methylbenzimidazole-2-methanolate), [Zn_(4)L_(6)Cl_(2)] (Zn_(4)L_(6), L = N-methylbenzimidazole-2-methanolate) and [Zn_(6)L_(6)Cl_(4)(CH_(3)O)_(2)] (Zn_(6)L_(6), L = N-methylbenzimidazole-2-methanolate) were prepared. The results of multistage ESI-MS of their dissolved crystals led to a proposed mechanism of their formation in the gas phase as follows: [Zn_(3)L_(4)] through [ZnL] → [ZnL(HL)] → [Zn(HL)_(2)] → [Zn_(2)L] → [Zn_(2)L_(2)] → [Zn_(2)L_(3)]. The mechanism was derived in conjunction with Gibbs free energies calculated using DFT of the fragments observed in the ESI-MS of Zn_(4)L_(4), Zn_(4)L_(6) and Zn_(6)L_(6). This work reveals the complex of chemical reactions, involving fragmentation and unexpected combination, under mass spectrometry condition which allows one to synthesize the observed transients, leading to mechanism of formation by correlation of solid-state/solution structural information.
文摘Visible light photocatalytic redox catalysis has become a powerful tool for organic synthesis, and has opened up new avenues for the formation of challenging structural skeletons and chemical bonds. In this respect, diverse photocatalysts, including ruthenium(II), iridium(Ⅲ), and organic dyes, have been most commonly applied.
文摘Confucian teachings can be divided into open,closed,and intermediate structures.Analyses of such structures make the extensive and profound ideas of Confucius more understandable.The dosed structure is dominant and actual,while the open structure is recessive and latent.The inertness,stagnation,and conservativeness of Confucian teachings have been widely acknowledged,whereas its dynamic,restless,and even revolutionary spirit have often been ignored.Against such stereotypical views,this paper furthers the exploration of Confucian teachings,contending that Confucius understands nature,socio-politics,and human life from a changeable and developmental perspective.It emphasizes eight open structures--balanced relationships,society,selection of talents,practice,knowledge,reason,truth,and justice--and the role such structures can play in the development of modern society.

文摘With the method of separation of variables and the eigenfunction expansion employed, an analytical solution is presented for the radiation and diffraction of a rectangular structure with an opening near a vertical wall in oblique seas, in which the unknown coefficients are determined by the boundary conditions and matching requirement on the interface. The effects of the width of the opening and the angle of incidence on the hydrodynamic characteristics of a rectangular structure with an opening near a vertical wall are mainly studied. The comparisons of the calculation results with wall-present and with wall-absent are also made. The results indicate that the variation trends of the heave added mass and excitation force with wall-present are almost the same as those with wall-absent, and that the peak values in the former case are obviously larger than those in the latter due to the reflection of the vertical wall.

文摘An investigation is made on the soil pressure in a nine cabin opened bottom elliptical barrel structure. The calculation models using the penetration of negative pressure method have been developed. The first calculation model is is for the construction stage involving three zones, namely, passive, transitional, and active established for the soil pressure in cabins. The other calculation model is based on the use stage, with the two （passive and active） zones for the soil pressure in cabins. The height of zones and the theoretical analytical solutions of inner soil pressure are derived. The analytical formulas of the models are proved using the finite element method and experimental data, and the formulas are analyzed in the inner soil pressure in the same condition. The calculation models can be used for other multi-position structural design or construction.
文摘It is regretted that the author corrections requested at the proof stage were not made accurately. There are some incorrect typings in two equations which will lead to inaccurate results if readers perform calculations directly
文摘This article uses data from censuses since 1982 to reveal changes in the family structure of rural China since the launch of reform and opening up and against the backdrop of institutional relocation,social transformation and an aging population.Since the advent of reform and opening up,rural family structure and its changes can be divided into two phases.Before the 1990 s,the household contract responsibility system was implemented,labor in rural villages was still mainly engaged in farming,and the number of nuclear families remained stable with a steady rise.After the 1990 s,as reform progress deepened,substantial numbers of young and middle-aged laborers in rural villages began to relocate into non-farming sectors and aging in rural villages rose.As those born in the early days of the family planning policy gradually matured,family structure was directly affected and changed in new ways and forms not seen before.Vocational divisions of labor among the parents of young families and married offspring emerged and the significance of cooperation for family economy and daily life between parents and offspring rose in importance.Also,the prevalence of immediate families with three generations climbed while the standard nuclear families declined,the ratio of middle-aged couples with young children that worked outside the home increased,the function of middle-aged and senior parents in the upbringing of infants and children enhanced,and the commonness of incomplete family types such as only grandparents with grandchildren increased.During this phase,the number of seniors living alone surged to the point of becoming a matter worthy of attention.

文摘The Openness based on DEM emphasizes the terrain convexity and concavity. It facilitates the interpretation of detailed landforms on the Earth＇s surface. Compared with the layer stacking of ETM＋ with less three-dimensionality and visualizability and with indefinite details of linear images in the deep cutting or deep covered region, the Openness is used for accurate interpretation of tectonic geomorphic units and linear structures. In this paper, the ETM＋ images（741 RGB） and RRIM based on Openness combined with the field geological investigation are used to trace the escaping structure in SE Asia. The east boundary is Ailaoshan shear zone and the west boundary is Uttaradit-Dien Bien Phu fault, which together form the southwards extruding wedge block. The arc boundary surface of the southern Khorat Plateau is jutted to the north. The NW and NE sides of Khorat Plateau are traversed by Uttaradit-Dien Bien Phu fault and Thakhek-Da Nang fault, respectively, resulting in a blocked escaping structure. The SE margins of Truong Son structure belt and Song Ma structure belt are both arcs jutting to SE. These arc structures clamped by faults or related to the fault on one side indicating the material flow direction obviously, are the most specific manifestation of escaping structures. Moreover, these push units are extruded from south to north successively.

文摘A novel synthesis of hierarchical porous carbons （HPCs）with 3D open-cell structure based on nanosilica- embedded emulsion-templated polymerization was reported. An oil-in-water emulsion containing SiO2 colloids was fabricated using liquid paraffin as an oil phase, resorcinol/formaldehyde and silica sol as an aqueous phase, and Span 80/Tween 80 as emulsifiers. HPCs with macropore cores, open meso/ macropore windows, and abundant micropores were synthesized by the polymerization and carbonization of the emulsion, followed by scaffold removal and further KOH activation. A typical HPCs sample as supercapacitor electrode shows the charge/discharge capability under large loading current density （30 A/g） coupling with a reasonable electrochemical capacitance in KOH electrolyte solution.
文摘Reaction of (MeC 5H 4) 3Ln with HOCH 2CH 2NMe 2 in tetrahydrofuran(THF) gives the new complexes [(MeC 5H 4) 2Ln(μ OCH 2CH 2NMe 2)] 2 (Ln=Sm, Y, Nd) with nitrogen functionalized μ alkoxide ligand. The complexes were characterized by elemental analysis and IR, and [(MeC 5H 4) 2Sm(μ OCH 2CH 2NMe 2)] 2 was structurally characterized by the X ray diffraction to be a dimer formed by two unsymmetric oxygen bridges. The complex has a tricyclic skeleton with the additional two Sm-N bonds via intramolecular coordination of OCH 2CH 2NMe 2. The coordination number of the central metal Sm is nine. The title complexes show good catalytic activity for ring opening polymerization of ε caprolactone.
