The mode II SIFs at crack tips can be obtained by simply calculating an integral of the product of mode II weight function and the shear stress on the prospective crack faces of uncracked disk loaded by a diametral compression. A semi-analytical formula for the calculation of normalized mode II SIF, f _Ⅱ, is derived for different crack lengths (from 0.1 to 0.7) and inclination angles (from 10° to 75°) with respect to loading direction. Comparison between the obtained results and finite element method solutions shows that the weight function method is of high precision. Combined with the authors previous work on mode I fracture analysis, the new specimen geometry can be used to study fracture through any combination of mode I and mode II loading by a simple alignment of the crack relative to the diameter of compression loading, and to obtain pure mode II crack extension. Another advantage of this specimen geometry is that it is available directly from rock core and is also easy to fabricate.展开更多
Densities and viscosities were measured as a function of composition for binary liquid mixture of diethylerie glycol monoethyl ether [CH3CH2O(CH2)2O(CH2)2OH] + water from 293.15 to 333.15 K at atmospheric pressur...Densities and viscosities were measured as a function of composition for binary liquid mixture of diethylerie glycol monoethyl ether [CH3CH2O(CH2)2O(CH2)2OH] + water from 293.15 to 333.15 K at atmospheric pressure, with a capillary pycnometer and Ubbelohde capillary viscometer respectively. From the experimental data, the excess molar volume V^E, viscosity deviation △η, and the excess energy of activation for viscous flow △G^*E were calculated. These data were correlated by the Redlich-Kister type equations to obtain the coefficients and standard deviations. The results showed a strong molecular interaction between diethylene glycol monoethyl ether and water.展开更多

The RadFrac module of Aspen Plus was adopted in the steady-state simulation. Sensitive analysis was applied to find the stable intial value and provide a basis for the improved control structure design. The Aspen Dynamics software was adopted to study the process dynamic behaviors, and two novel control structures provided with feed ratio controllers and sensitive tray temperature controllers were proposed. The reflux ratio controllers were applied in the improved novel control structures. Both control structures abandoned the composition controllers that were replaced by simpler controllers with which the product purity could meet the specification requiring under a ± 20% disturbance to the total feed flowrate / MeAc composition.展开更多

It was found that,following a weaker-than-normal ASM, the East Asian summer monsoon and western North Pacific subtropical high tend to be stronger, yielding anomalous northward moisture to be transported from the western Pacific to central China. Besides, anomalous upwelling motion emerges over 30–37.5°N, along 110°E. Consequently,significant positive summer precipitation anomalies are located over central China. Further analysis indicated that the boreal winter sea surface temperature(SST) in the Indian Ocean and South China Sea shows positive anomalies in association with a weaker-than-normal ASM. The Indian Ocean warming in boreal winter could persist into the following summer because of its own long memory, emanating a baroclinic Kelvin wave into the Pacific that triggers suppressed convection and an anomalous anticyclone. Besides, the abnormal SST signal in the South China Sea develops eastward with time because of local air-sea interaction, causing summer SST warming in the western Pacific. The SST warming can further affect East Asian atmospheric circulation and precipitation through its impact on convection.展开更多

Methods: After being anesthetized with chloralhydrate, forty-eight healthy SD rats were randomly divided into 6 groups (8 in each): sham operation group (S group); I/R group: left lung hilum was clamped for 40 minutes followed by 105 minutes of reperfusion; IPO group: left lung hilum was clamped for40 minutes and postconditioned by 3 cycles of 30 seconds of reperfusion and 30 seconds of reocclusion; Heroin (HM)+ I/R group: heroin, an inducer of HO-1 was injected intraperitoneally at 40 μmol·kg^-1·day^-1 for two consecutive days prior to 40 minutes clamping of left lung hilum; ZnPPIX+IPO group: zinc protoporphyrin IX, an inhibitor of HO-1 was injected intraperitoneally at 20 mg·kg^-1 24 hours prior to 40 minutes clamping of left lung hilum; and HM+S group: HM was administered as in the HM+I/R group without inducing lung I/R. Arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2) and malondialdehyde (MDA) content in serum were assessed. The left lung was removed for determination of wet/dry lung weight ratio and expression of HO-1 protein by immuno-histochemical technique and for light microscopic examination. Results: The PaO2 was significantly lower in all the experimental groups compared with sham group (90 roan Hg ±11 mmHg). However, the values of PaO2in IPO (81 mm Hg±7 mm Hg) and HM+I/R (80 mm Hg±9 mm Hg) were higher than that in I/R (63 mm Hg±9 mm Hg) and ZnPPIX+IPO (65 mm Hg±8 mm Hg) groups (P〈0.01). The protein expression of HO- 1 in lung tissue was significantly increased in I/R group compared with S group (P〈0.01). While the HO-1 protein expression was higher in IPO and HM+I/R groups as compared with I/R group (P〈0.05, P〈0.01 ). The lung wet/ dry (W/D) weight ratio and MDA content in serum were significantly increased in I/R group as compared with S or HM+S groups (P〈0.01), accompanied by severe lung tissue histological damage, which was attenuated either by IPO or by HM pretreatment (P〈0.01, IPO or HM+I/R vs. I/R). The protective effect of IPO was abolished by ZnPPIX. Conclusion: Ischemic postconditioning can attenuate the lung ischemia-reperfusion injury through upregulating the protein expression of HO-I that leads to reduced postischemic oxidative damage.展开更多

Hereby for such equations, via the Hirota method and syrnbolic computation, analytic soliton solutions in the bright-dark and dark-dark forms are obtained. Based on the choice of photorefrac- rive polymer parameter and incident-optical-beam parameter, the bright-dark and dark-dark solitons as well as their interaction can occur in the polymer when the total intensity is much lower than the background illumination, and our analysis indicates that the incident light with different polarization directions influence little on the soliton propagation. ~, representing the soliton intensity far away from the soliton center, determines the appearance of bright or dark soliton under the background illumination. Through the graphic and asymptotic analysis on the two-soliton solutions along with the different ~, we find that there exist the elastic and inelastic interactions between the bright-dark solitons, while the interactions between the dark-dark solitons are always elastic.展开更多
