And compression fields in the isolator are investigated using wall static and pitot pressure measurements. Three incoming Mach numbers are considered as 1.5, 1.8 and 2. Results show that the increase of the asymmetry of the flow at the isolator entrance leads to the increase of the shock train length in the isolator for a given pressure ratio. Based on the analysis of the flow asymmetry effect at the isolator entrance on the shock train length, a modified correlation is proposed to calculate the length of the shock train. Predicted results of the proposed correlation are in good agreement with the experimental data.展开更多

The flow field distribution law was studied and eight types of flow regions were proposed. They are high pressure with air stagnant region, pressure decreasing with air accelerating region, low pressure with high air flow velocity region I, turbulent region, steady flow region, low pressure with high air flow velocity region II,pressure increasing with air decelerating region and wake region. The analysis of the vortex structure around the train shows that the vortex is mainly induced by structures with complex mutation and large curvature change. The head and rear of train, the underbody structure, the carriage connection section and the wake region are the main vortex generating sources while the train body with even cross-section has rare vortexes. The wake structure development law studied lays foundation for the train drag reduction.展开更多

In light of the existing cellular automaton models, in this paper, we develop a model to analyze the mixed running processes of trains with maximal speeds of 500 km/h and 350 km/h respectively in the moving block system. In the proposed model, we establish some sound rules to control the running processes of a train, where the rules include the departure rules in the intermediate stations, the overtaking rules, and the conditions of speed limitation for a train stopping at a station or passing through a station. With the consideration of the mixed ratio and the distance between two adjacent stations, the properties of the train traffic flow (including capacity and average speed) are simulated. The numerical results show that the interactions among different trains will affect the capacity, and a proper increase of the spatial distance between two adjacent stations can enhance the capacity and the average speed under the moving block.展开更多

The Reynolds number of the flow, based on the inflow velocity and the height of the vehicle, is 1.9×10~6. The computations are conducted under three cases, train on the windward track on the bridge(WWC), train on the leeward track on the bridge(LWC) and train on the flat ground(FGC). Commercial software FLUENT is used and the mesh sensitivity research is carried out by three different grids: coarse, medium and fine. Results show that compared with FGC case, the side force coefficients of the head cars for the WWC and LWC cases increases by 14% and 29%, respectively; the coefficients of middle cars for the WWC and LWC increase by 32% and 10%, respectively; and that of the tail car increases by 45% for the WWC whereas decreases by 2% for the LWC case. The most notable thing is that the side force and the rolling moment of the head car are greater for the LWC, while the side force and the rolling moment of the middle car and the tail car are greater for the WWC. Comparing the velocity profiles at different locations, the flow is significantly influenced by the bridge-train system when the air is close to it. For the three cases(WWC, LWC and FGC), the pressure on the windward side of train is mostly positive while that of the leeward side is negative. The discrepancy of train's aerodynamic force is due to the different surface area of positive pressure and negative pressure zone. Many vortices are born on the leeward edge of the roofs. Theses vortices develop downstream, detach and dissipate into the wake region. The eddies develop irregularly, leading to a noticeably turbulent flow at leeward side of train.展开更多

However, technical limitations have limited studies in this area. The few studies conducted have concerned active exercise effects on microcirculation of the peripheral nerve. Using an animal experiment, this study evaluated the effect of swimming training on microcirculation of injured peripheral nerve by laser Doppler flowmetry. The results showed that the blood vessel at the distal end of the peripheral nerve was the main blood supply for the nerve, and the internal blood supply for the nerve had strong compensatory ability. Swimming training promoted the functional recovery of rats with sciatic nerve injury and the regeneration of myelin sheath and blood vessels, but had no impact on neural blood flow.展开更多

文摘Purpose We aimed to determine:(a)the chronic effects of interval training(IT)combined with blood flow restriction(BFR)on physiological adaptations(aerobic/anaerobic capacity and muscle responses)and performance enhancement(endurance and sprints),and(b)the influence of participant characteristics and intervention protocols on these effects.Methods Searches were conducted in PubMed,Web of Science(Core Collection),Cochrane Library(Embase,ClinicalTrials.gov,and International Clinical Trials Registry Platform),and Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure on April 2,with updates on October 17,2024.Pooled effects for each outcome were summarized using Hedge's g(g)through meta-analysis-based random effects models,and subgroup and regression analyses were used to explore moderators.Results A total of 24 studies with 621 participants were included.IT combined with BFR(IT+BFR)significantly improved maximal oxygen uptake(VO2_(max))(g=0.63,I^(2)=63%),mean power during the Wingate 30-s test(g=0.70,I^(2)=47%),muscle strength(g=0.88,I^(2)=64%),muscle endurance(g=0.43,I^(2)=0%),time to fatigue(g=1.26,I^(2)=86%),and maximal aerobic speed(g=0.74,I^(2)=0%)compared to IT alone.Subgroup analysis indicated that participant characteristics including training status,IT intensity,and IT modes significantly moderated VO2_(max)(subgroup differences:p<0.05).Specifically,IT+BFR showed significantly superior improvements in VO2_(max)compared to IT alone in trained individuals(g=0.76)at supra-maximal intensity(g=1.29)and moderate intensity(g=1.08)as well as in walking(g=1.64)and running(g=0.63)modes.Meta-regression analysis showed cuff width(β=0.14)was significantly associated with VO2_(max)change,identifying 8.23 cm as the minimum threshold required for significant improvement.Subgroup analyses regarding muscle strength did not reveal any significant moderators.Conclusion IT+BFR enhances physiological adaptations and optimizes aspects of endurance performance,with moderators including training status,IT protocol(intensity,mode,and type),and cuff width.This intervention addresses various IT-related challenges and provides tailored protocols and benefits for diverse populations.
