The catalysts were characterized by means of the powder X-ray diffraction and N2 adsorption-desorption, the inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry, the temperature programmed reduction, diffuse reflectance UV-Vis spectra, and the X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. It was found that after doping little amount of Ce in copper manganese oxide, CeO2 phase was highly dispersed and could prevent sintering and aggregating of the catalyst, the size of the catalytic material was decreased, the reducibility was enhanced, the specific surface area was increased and the formation of the active sites for the oxidation of CO was improved significantly. Therefore, the activity of the rare earth promoted catalyst was enhanced remarkably.展开更多

We call it “negative resonance phenomenon” temporarily. With the phenomenon above and Support Vector Machines (SVMs), we can detect the existence of hidden messages, and also identify the tools used to hide them. As shown by the experi- mental results, the proposed method can be very effectively used to detect hidden messages embedded by Hide4PGP, Stegowav and S-Tools4.展开更多

The corresponding computational program was developed using FORTRAN language. A comparison between the obtained solutions and the model test results was made to show the validity of the obtained solutions. The calculation results indicate that both the maximum lateral displacement and bending moment increase with the increase of the vertical and lateral loads and the pile length above ground, while decrease as the pile stiffness, the coefficient of subgrade reaction and the yielding displacement of soil increase. It is also shown that the pile head condition controls the pile responses and the vertical load may cause the instability problem to the pile. In general, the proposed method can be employed to calculate the pile responses independent of the magnitude of the pile deflection.展开更多

The anaJytical solutions to the elastic field and the electric field, the interracial stress fields of inhomogeneity and matrix under longitudinal shear and the image force acting on the dislocation are derived by means of complex method. The effect of material properties and geometric configurations of the rigid core on interracial stresses generated by a remote uniform load, rigid core and material electroelastic properties on the image force is discussed.展开更多

The orthogonal design method is adopted for experimental design. The experimental results show that alcohol can trigger the shrinking and Ba2t can induce the swelling of the P(NIPAM-co-BCAm) copolymer. According to the phase transition tempera- ture (LCST) change results of the copolymer, the influence of variables on the LCST changes weakens in the following order: alcohol concentration 〉 alcohol species 〉 metal ion species 〉 BCAm concentration 〉 ion concentration. The larger the alcohol concentration and the larger the molecular size of alcohols, the lower the LCST value; on the contrary, the more the BCAm content in the copolymer or the larger the BCAm/ion complex stability constant (IgK) or the larger the ion concentration is, the higher the LCST value. For a P(NIPAM-co-BCAm ) copolymer with a fixed BCAm content, a binary function of ion concentration and IgK of BCAm/ion is developed to precisely predict the LCST values of the copolymer in different metal ion solutions. The results provide valuable information for fabricating artificial biomimetic G-protein-gated inwardly rectifying potassium (GIRK) channels that are activated by alcohol and inhibited by Ba2+.展开更多

This paper presents a review of the literature and our recent results on the self-assembly of one-, two- and three-dimensional anisotropic nanostructures using conjugated polymers as building blocks, including the formation of one-dimensional (1D) nanofibers and nanotubes, two-dimensional (2D) nanoribbons and nanosheets, and three-dimensional (3D) superstructures. The mechanisms guiding the formation of various nanostructures are analyzed by a cooperative effect of - stacking interaction and other noncovalent interactions.展开更多
