Trial production was then conducted under the conditions obtained by Gleeble tests. Based on the results of microstructure analysis and mechanical property evaluation, the relationship between microstructural features and mechanical properties was elucidated. The result shows that the volume fraction of constituted phases can be controlled through adjusting the cooling rate and finish cooling temperature in order to get different strength levels. As cooling rate increases, the volume fraction of upper bainite increases, which leads to the increase of strength. The upper shelf energy (USE) increases with increasing volume fraction of acicular ferrite in bainite base because of the small effective acicular ferrite grain size. Ductile-brittle transition temperature (DBTT) decreases with increasing acicular ferrite volume fraction. High reduction in the rough stage has great influence on grain refinement.展开更多

However, there is limited information on the metabolism relationship between OH-pentaB DEs and MeO-pentaB DEs that were frequently detected with relatively high concentrations in the environment. In this study, the biotransformation between OH-BDE-99 and MeO-BDE-99 was investigated in rice, wheat, and soybean plants. All the three plants can metabolize OH-BDE-99 to corresponding homologous methoxylated metabolites, while the transformation from MeO-BDE-99 to OH-BDE-99 could only be found in soybean. The conversion of parent compounds was the highest in soybean, followed by wheat and rice. Transformation products were found mainly in the roots, with few metabolites being translocated to the shoots and solution after exposure. The results of this study provide valuable information for a better understanding of the accumulation and transformation of OH-PBDEs and MeO-PBDEs in different plants.展开更多

There...Due to the spatial heterogeneity and the spatial scale mismatch between in situ and satellite-based measurements,optimal ground sampling should be made to increase the representativeness of in situ observations. Therefore,many ground sampling strategies have been proposed,but their performance within the coarse pixel has not been evaluated. Hence,this study evaluated four typical methods regarding their ability to obtain pixel scale ground ‘truth’. Random combination (RC) performs best,with the always fewest samples to satisfy representativeness errors (REs) of 3% in the case of a small number of samples. When the goal of sampling is to obtain in situ measurements with REs close to 0 at the expense of increasing the number of samples,cumulative representativeness sampling (CRS) is more effective than RC in less heterogeneous areas. Geo-statistical model-based sampling (GSS) does not work well because the number of samples within the coarse pixel scale cannot support a robust semi-variogram model. Stratified sampling (SS) is highly dependent on spatial heterogeneity and does not work well in the case of small sample sizes. This study gives important guidance for ground sample deployment within the coarse pixel for validation of coarse-resolution satellite albedo products over a heterogeneous surface.展开更多
