[Method] Dugesia japonica was respectively treated with different concentrations of copper solution for 4 and 6 d, and the blank control group was set. The mobility measurement and a regeneration assay of copper ions were determined by mIC50 and rIC50 . [Result] The mobility IC 50 for adult D. japonica at 24, 48, 72 and 96 h were 86, 3.73, 3.47 and 2.61 mg Cu2+ /L, respectively. The mobility IC50s for newborns was 2.22, 1.64, 0.87 and 0.93 mg Cu2+ /L, respectively. Although there was no significant difference between 24 and 48 h, and between 72 and 96 h of copper exposure, Cu2+ decreased newborns locomotor behavior in a concentration-dependent manner at sub-toxic concentrations. The regeneration IC50 of eyespots and auricles for adult D. japonica at 6 d were calculated as 0.76, 0.78 mg Cu2+ /L, respectively. The number of eyespots and auricles regeneration in planarian D. japonica showed a concentration-dependent manner. Results showed that newborns mobility and adult regeneration assay for D. japonica in a concentration-dependent manner. [Conclusion] The results of the present study suggest that planarians can be regarded as a useful bioindicator species for toxicological studies in the future.展开更多

Three dimensional numerical simulation was carried out to study the performance of this furnace. The Eddy Dissipation Concept(EDC) model coupled with the reaction mechanism DRM-19 was used. The prediction showed a good agreement with the measurement. The effect of air nozzle circle(D), air nozzle diameter(d), air nozzle number(N), and air preheating temperature(Tair) on the flow, temperature and species fields, and the CO and NO emissions was investigated. The results indicate that there are four zones in the furnace, viz.: a central jet zone, an ignition zone, a combustion reaction zone, and a flue gas zone, according to the distribution profiles of H_2 CO and OH. The central jet entrains more flue gas in the furnace upstream with an increasing D while the effect of D is negligible in the downstream. The air jet momentum increases with a decreasing d or an increasing Tair, and entrains more flue gas. The effect of N is mainly identified near the burner exit. More heat is absorbed in the radiant section and less heat is discharged to the atmosphere with a decreasing d and an increasing N as evidenced by the flue gas temperature. The CO and NO emissions are less than 50 μL/L and 10 μL/L, respectively, in most of conditions.展开更多

For particle velocity distribution, the particle collision process is performed in physical domain, and the particle streaming process is carried out in the corresponding computational domain, which is transferred from the physical domain using interpolation method. For the interpolation calculation, a second-order upwind interpolation method is adopted on internal lattice nodes in flow fields while a second-order central interpolation algorithm is employed at neighbor-boundary lattice nodes. Then the above-mentioned model and algorithms are used to numerically simulate the 3D flows in the lid-driven cavity at Reynolds numbers of 100, 400 and 1000 on non-uniform meshes. Various vortices on the x-y, y-z and x-z symmetrical planes are successfully predicted, and their changes in position with the Reynolds number increasing are obtained. The velocity profiles of u component along the vertical centerline and w component along the horizontal centerline are both in good agreement with the data in literature and the calculated results on uniform meshes. Besides, the velocity vector distributions on various cross sections in lid-driven cavity predicted on non-uniform meshes are compared with those simulated on uniform meshes and those in the literature. All the comparisons and validations show that the 3D lattice Boltzmann model and all the numerical algorithms on non-uniform meshes are accurate and reliable to predict effectively flow fields.展开更多

In our findings, when the system is with only repulsive twobody interactions or only three-body interactions, the tunneling will be suppressed; while in the case of the coupling between two- and three-body interactions, the tunneling can be either suppressed or enhanced. Particularly, when attractive three-body interactions are twice large as repulsive two-body interactions, CDT occurs at isolated points of driving force, which is similar to the linear case. Considering different interaction, the system can experience different transformation from coherent tunneling to coherent destruction of tunneling (CDT). The quasi-energy of the system as the function of the periodicaJ1y driving force shows a triangular structure, which provides a deep insight into the tunneling dynamics of the system.展开更多
