Respect for Differences,Practice Social Responsibility

Development is founded on responsibility, and trend is led by standard. The standardization of social responsibility has a great impact on the promotion of social responsibility. However, considering the differences in society, environment, law, culture and economic conditions between developing and developed countries, good practices of social responsibility standards should be done without imposing one single solution or single-model approach.

Response Difference and Related Discussion of Digital Fluid Records of the Beijing Wuliying Well before Strong Earthquakes

In this paper, the precursor response characteristics of digital fluid caused by the Wenchuan M8.0 and Yushu M7.1 earthquakes are studied, and the response difference of the observations of Wuliying well to the two strong earthquakes is compared. The result shows that the abnormal fluid response has a certain relationship with earthquake size and epicenter distance. The greater the earthquake, and the closer it is to the epicenter from the observatory, the more sensitive the response will be to fluid anomalies. Abnormal Helium release was first observed before both strong earthquakes in the fluid precursor observation. The release intensity is related to earthquake magnitude; the larger the magnitude, the stronger the abnormal changes. The large change in He release in a short period after the Wenchuan earthquake may be related to the continuous activity of strong aftershocks and the structural adjustment after the earthquake. Helium release increased significantly after both earthquakes, as contributed by the abnormal deep-sited Helium release. However, this process may be connected to the annual change from July to September or the hot-reservoir type gas release in the Wuliying well. In the earthquake preparation process, a large number of deep-derived Helium is released into the geothermal system and the entire composition is changed. Temporally, this gas release appears later than fault-type gas release, and the disappearance time of this anomaly is also much later. The response difference of the fluid precursor to the two strong earthquakes may be related to differences of deep structural setting and dynamic mechanism. It also shows there is a stronger correlation between Wenchuan M8.0 earthquake in the North-South Seismic Belt and North China region than the Yushu M7.1 earthquake in the internal Qinghai-Tibetan plateau. Helium gas can be a sensitive indicator for monitoring abnormal deep-gas activity of the region where the observation station is located. Hence, observation and research should be strengthened in the future.

Total Ionizing Dose Response of Different Length Devices in 0.13μm Partially Depleted Silicon-on-Insulator Technology

An anomalous total dose effect that the long length device is more susceptible to total ionizing dose than the short one is observed with the 0.13？μm partially depleted silicon-on-insulator technology. The measured results and 3D technology computer aided design simulations demonstrate that the devices with different channel lengths may exhibit an enhanced reverse short channel effect after radiation. It is ascribed to that the halo or pocket implants introduced in processes results in non-uniform channel doping profiles along the device length and trapped charges in the shallow trench isolation regions.

C57BL/6 and DBA/1 Mice Differ in Their Response to Supplementation with 1,25D and Paricalcitol

Active vitamin D (1,25D) is a fat-soluble vitamin that is mainly produced in the skin by the conversion of 7-dehydrocholesterol under ultraviolet light stimulation.Its role in calcium homeostasis,bone growth, and prevention of rickets and osteomalacia has been known for over two hundred years.Its
