First, a decentralized nonlinear robust control approach based on the feedback linearization and H∞ theory is introduced to eliminate the nonlinearities and interconnections of the studied system, and to attenuate the exogenous disturbances that enter die system. Then, a system model is built up, which has considered all the generators’ and TCSC’s dynamics, and the effects of uncertainties such as disturbances. Next, a decentralized nonlinear robust coordinated control law is developed based on this model. Simulation results on a six-machine power system show that the transient stability of the power system is obviously improved and die power transfer capacity of long distance transmission lines is enhanced regardless of fault locations and system operation points. In addition, the control law has engineering practicality since all the variables in the expression of he control strategy can be measured locally.展开更多

For a multi-machine system which has a set of identical parallel turbine-generators or non-identical turbine-generators having torsional modes of the same frequency, generators may suffer from the same mode of torsional interaction corresponding to a certain series compensation degrees. Generators in such system may have different oscillation behaviors when they are unequally loaded or have different shaft and electrical parameters. Serving as the grid-side equipment, the reactive power output of a STATCOM could have an impact on all generators electrical distance nearby. Thus a single STATCOM could be used to damp torsional interactions of multi-generators when additional proper control strategy is supplemented. In this paper, control strategy of using STATCOM to damp SSR in a multi-machine system is designed and its effectiveness is validated based on a modified IEEE second benchmark model.展开更多

The purification procedure included ammonium sulfate precipitation, ion exchange chromatography, and gel chromatography. The molecular weight and isoelectric point (pI) of VP-Peco60-7 were determined to be approxi-mately 40 kDa and 4.1, respectively. By N-terminal sequence determination and peptide mapping analysis, VP-Peco60-7 was found to be similar to the versatile peroxidase isoenzyme VPL1, which was previously isolated from liquid cultures of the same species. However, the molecular weight and pI of VP-Peco60-7 were different from those of versatile peroxidases of liquid cultures, implying that the VP-Peco60-7 in this study is of a novel type. With 2,2′-azino-bis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) (ABTS) as a substrate, the maximal enzyme activity was obtained at 50 °C and pH 3.0. The catalysis of ABTS by VP-Peco60-7 was expressed by the Michaelis-Menten equa-tion. At 50 °C and pH 3.0, the maximum velocity (V max ) was 188.68 U·mg-1 and the michaelis constant (K m ) was 203.09 μmol·L-1 .展开更多

Methods： A cloning and expression vector, pEGFP-NI-lac, was constructed by inserting the prokaryotic lac promoter of pUC 19 into the eukaryotic expression vector, pEGFP-N1, between the eukaryotic PCMV promoter and enhanced green fluorescent protein （EGFP） open reading frames. To assess the function of pEGFP-NI-lac, the nucleotide sequence encoding the hepatitis C virus （HCV） core protein was cloned into the multiple cloning sites. Western blotting analysis was used to detect the expression of the HCV core protein in Escherichia coli DH5a and HepG2 cells. Results： Restriction enzyme digestion and sequence analysis indicated that pEGFP-NI-lac was successfully constructed and the HCV core gene was cloned into this vector. The Western blotting results showed that pEGFP-NI-lac promoted expression of HCV core gene in prokaryotic E. coli DH5a and eukaryotic HepG2 cells. Conclusion： The pEGFP-NI-lac vector has been successfully constructed and functions in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. The EGFP reporter can be used as an insert-inactivation marker for clone selection or as an expression tag. This vector can be used for cloning and expression of genes in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, making gene cloning, expression and functional studies convenient as well as time- and labor-efficient展开更多

文摘An advanced nonlinear robust control scheme is proposed for multi-machine power systems equipped with thyristor-controlled series compensation (TCSC). First, a decentralized nonlinear robust control approach based on the feedback linearization and H∞ theory is introduced to eliminate the nonlinearities and interconnections of the studied system, and to attenuate the exogenous disturbances that enter die system. Then, a system model is built up, which has considered all the generators’ and TCSC’s dynamics, and the effects of uncertainties such as disturbances. Next, a decentralized nonlinear robust coordinated control law is developed based on this model. Simulation results on a six-machine power system show that the transient stability of the power system is obviously improved and die power transfer capacity of long distance transmission lines is enhanced regardless of fault locations and system operation points. In addition, the control law has engineering practicality since all the variables in the expression of he control strategy can be measured locally.

文摘In this study,a versatile fluorine-bearing gel membrane with multi-scale nanofibers was rationally designed and synthesized via facile one-step blend electrospinning of nano-titanium dioxide(TiO_(2))particles and fluorinated poly-m-phenyleneisophthalamide(PMIA)polymer solution.The prepared multiscale TiO_(2)-assisted gel separator presented relatively high porosity,small aperture,giving rise to superior affinity to electrolyte and sufficient active sites to accelerate lithium ions migration.Meanwhile,the asfabricated multifunctional GPE also rendered outstanding heat-resistance and well-distributed lithiumions flux,and the mutual overlaps between the coarse fibers and the fine fibers within the multi-scale nanofiber membrane provided a strong skeleton support,which in turn laid a solid footing stone for high-security and dendrite-proof batteries.Particularly,the nano-TiO_(2) particles within PMIA membrane acted as"gatekeepers",which can not only resist the growth of lithium dendrites,but also intercept the dissolved polysulfide on cathode side.Based on these merits,the gel PMIA-based lithium cobalt(LCO)/lithium battery obtained the remarkably improved rate capability and cycle performances on account of superior ionic conductivity,steady anodic stability window and weakened polarization behavior.Meanwhile,the resultant lithium-sulfur cell also delivered the outstanding cycling stability with the aid of the greatly prevented"shuttle effect"of dissolved lithium polysulfides based on the physical trapping and chemical binding of the prepared GPE to polysulfides species.This work proved that the addition of functional inorganic nanoparticles similar with TiO_(2) in multi-scale gel PMIA membrane can enhance the lithium ions transport capability,resist the growth of lithium dendrites as well as inhibit the shuttle effect of polysulfides,which would prompt a great development for dendrite-blocking and polysulfideinhibiting lithium-metal cells.

文摘Atmospheric simulation chambers,are unique tools for investigating atmospheric processes in the gas and heterogeneous phases.They can provide a controlled yet realistic environment that simulates atmospheric conditions.In the current study,a Teflon atmospheric simulation chamber of 600 L,named THALAMOS(thermally regulated atmospheric simulation chamber) has been developed and cross-validated.THALAMOS can be operated over the temperature range 233 to 373 K under both static and flow conditions.It is equipped with state of the art instrumentation(selective ion flow tube mass spectrometry(SIFT-MS),long path Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FTIR),gas chromatography-mass spectrometry(GC-MS),various analyzers) for the in-line monitoring of both reactants and products.THALAMOS was validated by measuring the rate coefficients of well documented reactions,i.e.the reaction of ethanol with OH radicals and the reaction of dichloromethane with Cl atoms,in a wide temperature range.Two different detection techniques were used in parallel,FTIR and SIFT-MS,to internally cross-validate the obtained results.The measured rate coefficients are in excellent agreement,both between each other and with the literature recommended values.Furthermore,the gas phase oxidation of toluene by Cl atoms(kinetics and product yields) was studied in the temperature range of 253 to 333 K.To the best of our knowledge,THALAMOS is a unique facility on national level and among a few smog chambers internationally that can be operated in such a wide temperature range providing the scientific community with a versatile tool to simulate both outdoor and indoor physicochemical processes.

文摘A new Chien search method for shortened Reed-Solomon （RS） code is proposed, based on this, a versatile RS decoder for correcting both errors and erasures is designed. Compared with the traditional RS decoder, the weighted coefficient of the Chien search method is calculated sequentially through the three pipelined stages of the decoder. And therefore, the computation of the errata locator polynomial and errata evaluator polynomial needs to be modified. The versatile RS decoder with minimum distance 21 has been synthesized in the Xilinx Virtex-Ⅱ series field programmable gate array （FPGA） xe2v1000-5 and is used by coneatenated coding system for satellite communication. Results show that the maximum data processing rate can be up to 1.3 Gbit/s.

文摘A quantum teleportation network involving multiple users is essential for future quantum internet.So far,controlled quantum teleportation has been demonstrated in a three-user network.However,versatile and controlled quantum teleportation network involving more users is in demand,which satisfies different combinations of users for practical requirements.Here we propose a highly versatile and controlled teleportation network that can switch among various combinations of different users.We use a single continuous-variable six-partite Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger(GHZ)state to realize such a task by choosing the different measurement and feedback operations.The controlled teleportation network,which includes one sub-network,two sub-networks and three sub-networks,can be realized for different application of user combinations.Furthermore,the coherent feedback control(CFC)can manipulate and improve the teleportation performance.Our approach is flexible and scalable,and would provide a versatile platform for demonstrations of complex quantum communication and quantum computing protocols.

文摘Diversity-oriented synthesis is a powerful and interesting synthetic tool for the rapid construction of structurally complex and privileged scaffolds from readily accessible starting materials.To date,diversity-oriented synthesis mostly relies on the employment of versatile reagents.Versatile reagents can be regulated as controllable and flexible building blocks for multipurpose utilizations.Over the past decade,a variety of multifunctional reagents have been developed.However,most versatile reagents usually need multi-step synthesis,thus restricting their wide application to a large extent.In terms of the practicalities and universalities,we prefer to pay more attention to the utilization of simple and practical versatile reagents with multiple reactivities,mainly including atropaldehyde acetals,aryl methyl ketones,vinylene carbonate,vinyl azides,aryldiazonium salts,rongalite,halodifluoromethyl compounds.Most importantly,these versatile reagents can also play different roles simultaneously in the same reaction,in which their different reactivities are converged into the final target products.Such strategy can not only offer more possibilities for the synthesis of several active pharmaceutical ingredients,but also minimize the occurrence of some side reactions by lessening the varieties of materials.Also,a perspective is given at the end of this review.

文摘Objective： To facilitate manipulation of gene expression in different host cells, we used pEGFP-N1 as backbone to construct a versatile vector that can drive foreign gene expression in prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. Methods： A cloning and expression vector, pEGFP-NI-lac, was constructed by inserting the prokaryotic lac promoter of pUC 19 into the eukaryotic expression vector, pEGFP-N1, between the eukaryotic PCMV promoter and enhanced green fluorescent protein （EGFP） open reading frames. To assess the function of pEGFP-NI-lac, the nucleotide sequence encoding the hepatitis C virus （HCV） core protein was cloned into the multiple cloning sites. Western blotting analysis was used to detect the expression of the HCV core protein in Escherichia coli DH5a and HepG2 cells. Results： Restriction enzyme digestion and sequence analysis indicated that pEGFP-NI-lac was successfully constructed and the HCV core gene was cloned into this vector. The Western blotting results showed that pEGFP-NI-lac promoted expression of HCV core gene in prokaryotic E. coli DH5a and eukaryotic HepG2 cells. Conclusion： The pEGFP-NI-lac vector has been successfully constructed and functions in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. The EGFP reporter can be used as an insert-inactivation marker for clone selection or as an expression tag. This vector can be used for cloning and expression of genes in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, making gene cloning, expression and functional studies convenient as well as time- and labor-efficient
