It is found that the universe may be opaque between the redshift regions 0.35 0.44, 0.44 0.57 and 0.6-0.73 since the best fit values of cosmic opacity in these regions are positive, while a transparent universe is favored in the redshift region 0.57-0.63. However, in general, a transparent universe is still consistent with observations at the lo confidence level.展开更多

In this case, evaluation and control of blast-induced effects are essential to the safety of nearby buildings and integrity of bedrock in blasting field. In Fangchenggang nuclear power station of China, the drill-and- blast method was employed for bedrock excavation. In order to reduce the blast-induced damage zone, the wave propagation and associated damage to rock mass should be carefully investigated. In this paper, the wave propagation regressively obtained from field monitoring data was presented based on empirical formula (e.g. Sadovsloj formula). The relationship between the peak particle velocity (PPV) at a distance of 30 m away from the charge hole and charge per delay in blast design was derived. Meanwhile, the acoustic tests before and after blasting were conducted to determine the damage depth of rock mass. The charge per delay in blast design was then calibrated based on the blast-induced wave propagation regularity. The results showed that a satisfactory effect was achieved on blast-induced damage control of rock mass. This could be helpful to rock damage control in similar blasting projects.展开更多

An algorithm based on signal phase-matching array processing that rejects direct blast interference in bistatic acoustic testing has been studied, through which the object scattering signal is accurately extracted. Characteristics of bistatic acoustic testing and signal phase matching processing principle are fully integrated in this algorithm. Firstly, the direct blast interference is calculated from the receiving signal based on three subarrays signal phase matching processing. Secondly, the direct blast is rejected by subtraction from the receiving signal. In this way the limitations of the high signal to noise ratio that signal phase matching processing required for direct calculating the object scattering signal can be avoided. Simulation and sea trial results show that, when the ratio of signal to interference is greater than -20 dB, this algorithm of direct blast interference rejection based phase matching signal processing can accurately extract the object scattering signal.展开更多

The correlation between the tympanogram type and the results of allergic skin was analyzed. This study suggests that there is no positive relationship between SOM and allergy.展开更多

Further, the latter can even be dominant instead the former in some circumstances. This fact is shown in the paper by using the experimental results and the theoretical analysis of the acoustic-induced vibration of a boundary clamped rectangular thin plate. In analysing the systems of acoustic fatigue test, an approach of electro-mechano-acoustical analogous circuit is used. The application of the approach can give an estimation of the effects on the low frequency vibration modes of various parameters in a system quantitatively. This supplies a theoretical basis and a means for the rational layout of acoustic fatigue tests.展开更多

The microstructure, grain size and phase compositions of Ti_3AlC_2 substrate didn't change after oxidation, hence the oxide removed Ti_3AlC_2 substrate maintained its initial flexural strength and hardness. However, the flexural strength of oxide retained Ti_3AlC_2 decreased by about 5%. Acoustic emission monitoring indicated that during the process of three-point bending test, the formed Al_2O_3 scale on Ti_3AlC_2 surface fractured firstly in a cleavage manner, then the substrate/oxide interface cracked,and finally the Ti_3AlC_2 substrate fractured. The mechanical degradation was caused by the preferential formation of cracks in brittle Al_2O_3 scale as well as at defective and lacunose grain boundaries of the substrate where stress concentration generated. The mechanical degradation was insensitive to oxidation temperature and time in the present conditions. In addition, the surface hardness increased significantly after oxidation due to the formed hard Al_2O_3 scale on the surface of Ti_3AlC_2 substrate.展开更多
