Methods Three-centered random control method was used, and 300 qualified cases were randomly divided into treatment group （146 cases according to the design） and control group （140 cases）, which were respectively treated with electro-acupuncture and drugs （Compound Aminopyrine Phenacetin Tablets, Ergotamine Caffeine Tablets, Diazepam Tablets）, and observed the overall effect and scores of headache, accompanying symptoms, psychological and social adaptability scores, life quality scores, TCM symptoms scores and follow-up results before and after the treatment. Results In treatment group, the successful rate of attack control was 47.3 %, the improvement rate was 73.3 %, and the total effectiveness was 90.4 %, the clinical control rate and improvement were much superior to control group （the clinical control rate 35.7 %, improvement 61.4 %, the total effectiveness 85. 7 % ）, P〈0. 01, the difference in effect was mainly reflected in patients with moderate severity; the total scores of TCM syndrome after the treatment was obviously significant or very obviously significant（ P〈0. 05, P〈0. 01 ）, but the headache scores between two groups was not obviously significant（P〉0.05）, the difference in accompanying symptoms was significant（ P〈0. 01 ） ;the long term attack control action in two groups was not satisfactory, the recurrence was similar （P〉0. 05） ,the severity of headache in recurrence cases of treatment group was alleviated and superior to control group（ P 〈 0. 01 ）, the occurrence of headache after the treatment is much less than that before the treatment and the situation after 2 months was superior to control group （P〈0. 01 ）. Sleepiness and redness of face in some patients which were seen in control group weren＇t seen in treatment group. Conclusion Electro-acupuncture on Tàiyáng （太阳 EX-HN5） can control the attack of migraine due to hyperactivity of liver yang, and it has advantages in improving the accompanying symptoms and reducing the toxic and side effects of western drugs.展开更多

The results show that the ratcheting strain of this alloy can get into shakedown after tens （or hundreds） of thousand cycles. After the ratcheting strain is saturated under the condition that stress amplitude is half of peak stress, it will bring about subsequent fatigue failure, and relationship between fatigue life and one of peak stress and saturated ratcheting （SR） strain meets power law. As the alloy is under stress jiggling with stress amplitude that is 1%-2.5% of peak stress, the ratcheting strain still become remarkable and goes into shakedown after several hundreds of thousand cycles but there exists little accessional strain caused by creep effect. It is notable that, when the peak stress is 85%-100% of yield stress, the long-cyclic stressing will lead SR strain to be from 1.4% to 2.5% even if the initial ratio of ratcheting strain is zero. Based on ratcheting threshold property of peak stress and monotonicity of relationship between the peak stress and SR strain, a saturated ratcheting model （SRM） is developed to predict SR strain and to estimate saturated creep strain also. In addition, the classes of ratcheting evolutions of metals are discussed.展开更多
