Th...The feasibility of using different generations of recycled fine aggregate（RFA） in structural concrete in a chloride environment was evaluated by studying the performance of the RFA and the corresponding concrete. The different generations of RFA were recycled by following the cycle of ‘concrete-waste concrete-fine aggregate-concrete＇. The properties of three generations of repeatedly recycled fine aggregate（RRFA） were systematically investigated, and we focused on the compressive strength and splitting tensile strength and chloride ion permeability of the related structural concretes with 25%, 75%, and 100% replacement of natural fine aggregates with RFA. The results indicated that the quality of RRFA presents a trend of slow deterioration, but the overall performance of all RRFA still fulfils the quality requirements of recycled fine aggregate for structural concrete. All RRFA concretes achieved the target compressive strength of 40 MPa after 28 days except for the second generation of the recycled aggregate concrete and the third generation of the recycled aggregate concrete with 100% replacement, and all the concrete mixes achieved the target compressive strength after 90 days. The insights obtained in this study demonstrate the feasibility of using at least three generations of RRFA for the production of normal structural concrete with a design service life of 100 years in a chloride environment.展开更多

The effects of deformation temperature on the microstructure and microhardness of RUEed AQ80 Mg alloy were studied. The results showed that Mg alloy is subjected to sufficient corner shear deformation, upsetting deformation, and extrusion deformation, resulting in a large and uniformly distributed effective strain after RUE deformation. The microstructure is refined to an average grain size of 2.1 μm by the continuous dynamic recrystallization (CDRX) mechanism at 250 °C. As the temperature increases to 300 °C, the discontinuous dynamic recrystallization (DDRX) mechanism is activated and the average grain size is refined to 1.6 µm by the combined effect of CDRX and DDRX. In comparison to their parent grains, the orientations of the CDRXed grains show a clearly preferred orientation, but those of the DDRXed grains are completely different. At 350 °C, {10-12} extension twins appear in the microstructure, and the twinning-induced recrystallization (TDRX) mechanism plays an important role in grain refinement. With the two strengthening mechanisms of fine-grained strengthening and dislocation strengthening, the microhardness of the 250 °C sample is greatly improved, with an increase of about 35.1% compared to the initial sample.展开更多

This study assayed the population structure, genetic diversity and origin of Northeast Asia weedy rice by using 48 simple sequence repeat markers. The results showed that weedy rice in Northeast Asia had a high genetic diversity, with Shannon＇s diversity index （I） of 0.748 and the heterozygosity （He） of 0.434. In each regional population, I value varied widely. The widest range of I （0.228-0.489） was observed in the weedy rice of Eastern China, which was larger than that of Northeast China and Korea （0.168-0.270）. The F-statistics of regional populations （Fis, Fit and Fst） also showed higher values in the weedy rice of Eastern China than those of Northeast China and Korea All weedy rice accessions were grouped into two clusters in the unweighted pair group method with arithmetic mean cluster analysis dendrogram, namely Eastern China branch and Northeastern China plus Korea branch. There was significant differentiation in genetic characteristics in weedy rice of northeastern and eastern Asia, especially in Eastern China.展开更多

In this study, we developed and characterized 20 polymorphic microsatelUte markers from the genomic sequence of an isolate of Chinese Pst race C^32. Polymorphism at each simple sequence repeat （SSR） locus was determined using 32 Pst isolates from 7 countries. The number of alleles varied from 2 to 7 across isolates, and the observed and expected heterozygosities ranged from 0.33 to 0.97 （mean 0.62） and 0.23 to 0.73 （mean 0.51 ）, respectively. As expected the genomic SSR markers were more polymorphic than the expressed sequence tag （EST）-SSR markers developed previously. These markers will be more useful for population genetics and molecular genetics studies in Pst.展开更多

METHODS: Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA)-based adhesion assays were performed to measure the adhesion of different H pylori strains (HP26695 and HPTx30a) to gastric carcinoma cell lines (GP202 and MKN45) and GP202 clones expressing recombinant MUC1 with different VNTR lengths. RESULTS: Evaluation of adhesion results shows that H pylori pathogenic strain HP26695 has a significantly higher (P < 0.05) adhesion to all the cell lines and clones tested, when compared to the non-pathogenic strain HPTx30a. Bacteria showed a significantly higher (P < 0.05) adhesion to the GP202 cell line, when compared to the MKN45 cell line. Furthermore, both strains showed a significantly higher (P < 0.05) adhesion to GP202 clones with larger MUC1 VNTR domains. CONCLUSION: This work shows that MUC1 mucin variability conditions H pylori binding to gastric cells. The extent of bacterial adhesion depends on the size of theMUC1 VNTR domain. The adhesion is further dependent on bacterial pathogenicity and the gastric cell line. MUC1 mucin variability may contribute to determine H pylori colonization of the gastric mucosa.展开更多

Much work has been done to investigate single-strike waveforms of VFTO. However, little study has been carried out investigating the repeated strike process, which would influence VFTO significantly. In this paper, we carried out 450 effective experiments in an ultra-high voltage test circuit, and conducted calculations through the Monte Carlo simulation method, to investigate the repeated strike process. Firstly, the mechanism of the repeated strike process is proposed, based on the ex- perimentai results. Afterwards, statistical breakdown characteristics of disconnectors are obtained and analyzed. Finally, simulations of the repeated strike process are conducted, which indicate that the dielectric strength recovery speed and polarity effect factor have a joint effect on VFTO. This study enhances the understanding of the nature of VFTO, and may help to optimize the disconnector designed to minimize VFTO.展开更多

文摘The feasibility of using different generations of recycled fine aggregate（RFA） in structural concrete in a chloride environment was evaluated by studying the performance of the RFA and the corresponding concrete. The different generations of RFA were recycled by following the cycle of ‘concrete-waste concrete-fine aggregate-concrete＇. The properties of three generations of repeatedly recycled fine aggregate（RRFA） were systematically investigated, and we focused on the compressive strength and splitting tensile strength and chloride ion permeability of the related structural concretes with 25%, 75%, and 100% replacement of natural fine aggregates with RFA. The results indicated that the quality of RRFA presents a trend of slow deterioration, but the overall performance of all RRFA still fulfils the quality requirements of recycled fine aggregate for structural concrete. All RRFA concretes achieved the target compressive strength of 40 MPa after 28 days except for the second generation of the recycled aggregate concrete and the third generation of the recycled aggregate concrete with 100% replacement, and all the concrete mixes achieved the target compressive strength after 90 days.

文摘Repeatedly unidirectional bending(RUB) was applied to the magnesium alloy sheet to improve the basal texture.The effect of RUB temperature on resulting structure and room temperature properties was investigated.The texture components of the sheet undergoing RUB at recovery temperature were similar to those of the sheet undergoing RUB at room temperature(RT).As the RUB temperature increased to above recrystallization temperature,the texture components became more disperse and the pyramidal components increased.With the increase of RUB temperature,the grain size near the surface of the sheets undergoing RUB tended to grow up.When the sheets were processed by RUB at medium-high temperature followed by annealing at 533 K,the yield strength and fracture elongation were lower than those of the cold rolled sheet;however,the Erichsen value was slightly higher than that of the cold rolled sheet.The sheet undergoing RUB at RT followed by annealing at 533 K represented the best mechanical properties.

文摘A new repeated upsetting-extrusion (RUE) process was proposed to improve the microstructure and the mechanical properties of Mg alloys. The effects of deformation temperature on the microstructure and microhardness of RUEed AQ80 Mg alloy were studied. The results showed that Mg alloy is subjected to sufficient corner shear deformation, upsetting deformation, and extrusion deformation, resulting in a large and uniformly distributed effective strain after RUE deformation. The microstructure is refined to an average grain size of 2.1 μm by the continuous dynamic recrystallization (CDRX) mechanism at 250 °C. As the temperature increases to 300 °C, the discontinuous dynamic recrystallization (DDRX) mechanism is activated and the average grain size is refined to 1.6 µm by the combined effect of CDRX and DDRX. In comparison to their parent grains, the orientations of the CDRXed grains show a clearly preferred orientation, but those of the DDRXed grains are completely different. At 350 °C, {10-12} extension twins appear in the microstructure, and the twinning-induced recrystallization (TDRX) mechanism plays an important role in grain refinement. With the two strengthening mechanisms of fine-grained strengthening and dislocation strengthening, the microhardness of the 250 °C sample is greatly improved, with an increase of about 35.1% compared to the initial sample.

文摘Weedy rice exerts a severe impact on rice production by competing for sunlight, water and nutrients. This study assayed the population structure, genetic diversity and origin of Northeast Asia weedy rice by using 48 simple sequence repeat markers. The results showed that weedy rice in Northeast Asia had a high genetic diversity, with Shannon＇s diversity index （I） of 0.748 and the heterozygosity （He） of 0.434. In each regional population, I value varied widely. The widest range of I （0.228-0.489） was observed in the weedy rice of Eastern China, which was larger than that of Northeast China and Korea （0.168-0.270）. The F-statistics of regional populations （Fis, Fit and Fst） also showed higher values in the weedy rice of Eastern China than those of Northeast China and Korea All weedy rice accessions were grouped into two clusters in the unweighted pair group method with arithmetic mean cluster analysis dendrogram, namely Eastern China branch and Northeastern China plus Korea branch. There was significant differentiation in genetic characteristics in weedy rice of northeastern and eastern Asia, especially in Eastern China.

文摘Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici （Pst） is the obligate biotrophic fungus responsible for stripe rust wheat. In this study, we developed and characterized 20 polymorphic microsatelUte markers from the genomic sequence of an isolate of Chinese Pst race C^32. Polymorphism at each simple sequence repeat （SSR） locus was determined using 32 Pst isolates from 7 countries. The number of alleles varied from 2 to 7 across isolates, and the observed and expected heterozygosities ranged from 0.33 to 0.97 （mean 0.62） and 0.23 to 0.73 （mean 0.51 ）, respectively. As expected the genomic SSR markers were more polymorphic than the expressed sequence tag （EST）-SSR markers developed previously. These markers will be more useful for population genetics and molecular genetics studies in Pst.

文摘AIM:To evaluate the influence of MUC1 mucin variable number of tandem repeats (VNTR) variability on H pylori adhesion to gastric cells. METHODS: Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA)-based adhesion assays were performed to measure the adhesion of different H pylori strains (HP26695 and HPTx30a) to gastric carcinoma cell lines (GP202 and MKN45) and GP202 clones expressing recombinant MUC1 with different VNTR lengths. RESULTS: Evaluation of adhesion results shows that H pylori pathogenic strain HP26695 has a significantly higher (P < 0.05) adhesion to all the cell lines and clones tested, when compared to the non-pathogenic strain HPTx30a. Bacteria showed a significantly higher (P < 0.05) adhesion to the GP202 cell line, when compared to the MKN45 cell line. Furthermore, both strains showed a significantly higher (P < 0.05) adhesion to GP202 clones with larger MUC1 VNTR domains. CONCLUSION: This work shows that MUC1 mucin variability conditions H pylori binding to gastric cells. The extent of bacterial adhesion depends on the size of theMUC1 VNTR domain. The adhesion is further dependent on bacterial pathogenicity and the gastric cell line. MUC1 mucin variability may contribute to determine H pylori colonization of the gastric mucosa.

文摘Very fast transient over-voltage （VFTO）, induced by disconnector operations in gas- insulated switchgears, has become the limiting dielectric stress at ultra-high voltage levels. Much work has been done to investigate single-strike waveforms of VFTO. However, little study has been carried out investigating the repeated strike process, which would influence VFTO significantly. In this paper, we carried out 450 effective experiments in an ultra-high voltage test circuit, and conducted calculations through the Monte Carlo simulation method, to investigate the repeated strike process. Firstly, the mechanism of the repeated strike process is proposed, based on the ex- perimentai results. Afterwards, statistical breakdown characteristics of disconnectors are obtained and analyzed. Finally, simulations of the repeated strike process are conducted, which indicate that the dielectric strength recovery speed and polarity effect factor have a joint effect on VFTO. This study enhances the understanding of the nature of VFTO, and may help to optimize the disconnector designed to minimize VFTO.
