The Rafa Tuohy needle<sup>R</sup> (Vygon, Paris, France, Rafa) is a non-stimulating Tuohy needle with sand-blasted steel at the tip of the bevel. We examined the degree to which the Rafa enhanced the visibility of ultrasonic images compared with the non-coated Tuohy needle. Methods: We punctured the Blue Phantom. The dimensions of both the Rafa and the non-coated Tuohy needles were 18 G × 80 mm. The puncture angle is 30 degrees and 45 degrees from the Blue Phantom. We measured the intensity of the tip of the bevel at a depth of 0.5, 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0 cm for the puncture angle of 30 degrees, and 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5 and 3.0 cm for the puncture angle of 45 degrees. Six anesthesiologists with more than seven years of experience performed three punctures using each needle. Results: As an outcome, we concluded that at a puncture angle of both 30 degrees and 45 degrees, the intensity of the non-coated Tuohy needle decreased with the depth. On the other hand, at an angle of 30 degrees, the intensity of the Rafa needle did not decrease, and at an angle of 45 degrees the intensity only decreased very slightly as the depth increased. Conclusions: The Tuohy needle with sand-blasted steel at the tip of the bevel provided greater visualization than the non-coated Tuohy needle on the ultrasound images.展开更多

The influences of synthesis temperature and holding time on the phase composition and microstructure during the microwave CRN were studied by XRD, SEM and EDS. The comparison between two heating techniques, conventional and microwave heating, on the synthesized powder was presented as well. The experimental results revealed that the phase compositions and microstructures of the synthesized products were greatly affected by the synthesis temperature and holding time. With an increase in the synthesis temperature or holding time, the relative amount of α′-Sialon increased and α′-Sialon became the main crystalline phase at 1400 °C for 6 h. The synthesized products also contained AlN, BN and a small amount of β-SiC. Elongated α′-Sialon grains, short rod AlN grains, aggregate nanoscale BN grains were observed in the synthesized powders. The reaction temperature of microwave heating method was reduced by 80 °C, the reaction time was shortened by 2 h, and more elongated α′-Sialon grains with large aspect ratio were observed.展开更多

In this paper, the vertical and the horizontal speeds of sand particles located at 1.0 mm above a sand-bed in a wind-blown sand flux are observed with the aid of Phase Doppler Anemometry (PDA) in a wind tunnel. Based on the experimental data, the probability distributions of not only the vertical lift-off speed but also the lift-off velocity as well as its horizontal component and the incident velocity as well as its vertical and horizontal components can be obtained by the equal distance histogram method. It is found, according to the results of the X^2-test for these probability distributions, that the probability density functions (pdf's) of the sand particles' lift-off and incident velocities as well as their vertical com- ponents are described by the Gamma density function with different peak values and shapes and the downwind incident and lift-off horizontal speeds, respectively, can be described by the lognormal and the Gamma density functions, These pdf's depend on not only the sand particle diameter but also the wind speed.展开更多

[ Method] At the fourth leaf stage of Luliangyou 996, 15 μg/mL Ag-antibiotic 702 was sprayed, while Validamycin and distilled wa- ter were sprayed as positive control and negative control, respectively. All treatments were inoculated with spore fluid of Magnaporthe grisea at 48 h post spraying, and the rice inoculated with only distilled water was used as blank control. The enzymes activities (endochitinase, exochitinase and β-1,3-glucanase) and total pro- tein content in rice leaves were determined every 24 h within 168 h post spraying. [ Result] Compared with the blank control, the rice inoculated with spore fluid of M. grisea could significantly increase the total protein content and the activities of β-1,3-glucanase and chitinase. The induction effect of Ag-antibiotics 702 exceeded that of Validamycin treatment. And the changes in activities of β-1,3-glucanase and chitinase had obvious synchronicity. [ Conclusion] Ag-antibiotic 702 can significantly improve the total protein content and the activities of β-1,3-glucanase and chitinase, thus enhancing the resistance to rice blast.展开更多

Different mechanical and chemical methods have been proposed to control sand production. In this paper, we propose a chemical method based on using polyacrylamide/chromium triacetate hydrogel to investigate sand production in a synthetic sandpack system. To this end, a series of bulk experiments including the bottle test and rheological analysis along with compression tests were conducted. Experimental results indicated that the compressive strength of the sandpack was increased as much as 30 times by injecting 0.5 pore volume of hydrogel. Also, it was found that the increases in cross-linker and polymer concentrations exhibited a positive impact on the compressive strength of the sandpack, mostly by cross-linker concentration(48 psi). Hydrogel with a higher value of cross-linker could retain its viscoelastic properties against the strain which was a maximum of 122% for 0.5 weight ratio of cross-linker/polymer. The presence of salts, in particular divalent cations, has a detrimental effect on the hydrogel stability. The maximum strain value applied on hydrogel in the presence of CaCl_2 was only about 201% as compared to 1010% in the presence of distilled water. Finally, thermogravimetric analysis and its derivative showed that the hydrogel could retain its structure up to 300 °C. The results of this study revealed the potential application of the hydrogel to control sand production.展开更多
