Their microstructure and damping capacities were investigated by optical microscopy, X-ray diffractometry, and dynamic mechanical analysis. The results show that the addition of Li changes the crystal structure of the alloys and causes new damping mechanisms to emerge. And the appearance of BCC structure makes the damping performance improved remarkably. The lower the elastic modulus is, the smaller the strain is and even the slower the acceleration is. The dual-phase alloy shows a better damping capacity while the temperature changes. Furthermore, all three alloys have two significant peaks:P1 caused by the movement of dislocations on the basal planes and P2 caused by the sliding of grain boundaries.展开更多

The nodes of the plate elements are treated as master-nodes, and the corresponding nodes of the beam elements are considered as slave-nodes. The stiffness and mass matrices of the elements are developed. Based on the analysis of the dynamic properties of the structures, modal loss factors are predicted by the modal strain energy method. Finally, an example is given to compare the results obtained from the proposed method with the results of the ANSYS software. The results show that the method in this paper is computationally efficient, simple and feasible with high precision and engineering practicability.展开更多

Quantitative analysis was performed on 11 sweet potato genotypes to provide a reference for the development and utilization of sweet potato, especial y on the aboveground part. [Method] Caffeoylquinic acid compounds were extracted from sweet potato leaves by ultrasonic treatment for 20 min with 200 volumes of methanol. The mobile phase of HPLC was acetonitrile -0.2% aqueous phosphoric acid. Chlorogenic acid, 4, 5-O-coffeocylquinic acid, 3, 5-O-coffeeacylquinic acid and 3, 4-O-coffeeacylquinic acid were separated wel by gradient elution, with recovery rate of 94.74%, 102.63%, 100.01% and 101.05%, respectively. [Result] The contents of caffeoylquinic acids were significantly different between sweet potato genotypes and tissue parts. Among these compounds, the content of bi-caffeoylquinic acids was the highest in the aboveground part, and the content of chlorogenic acid was the highest in the root tubers. The content of caffeoylquinic acid in different parts of the plant was: 9.77-40.86 mg/g in stem apex, 2.68-13.97 mg/g in mature leaves, 0.56-7.90 mg/g in stems and 0.69-4.33 mg/g in root tubers, respectively. [Conclusion] Sweet potato stems and leaves can be used for the extraction of chlorogenic acid in development and utilization, in which the purple sweet potato series is superior to the non-purple sweet potato series. The performance of the two purple sweet potato materials of 11ZY series is particularly prominent.展开更多

The damping properties of BaTiO3 ceramic, Al matrix and BaTiO3/Al composites were examined by dynamic mechanical analysis in the temperature range from 273 K to 573 K. The results show that although BaTiO3 exhibits high damping (tan δ=0.12) below 400 K, the damping capacity of 10%BaTiO3/Al (mass fraction) composites below 400 K is not increased as compared to the Al matrix. On the other hand, the damping capacity above 450 K is greatly enhanced due to the motion of dislocations at the interfaces between ceramic particles and Al matrix. The failure of exerting the intrinsic damping of BaTiO3 particles in the composites is attributed to the poor interface bonding between the particles and the matrix. The tensile strength of the composite is 42% higher than that of the Al matrix, which indicates the possibility of obtaining high strength and high damping composites via interface improvement and the addition of high volume fraction of large grain BaTiO3 particles.展开更多

One material was extruded to profile aluminum directly and the other was extruded to bar and then rolled to sheet. The damping capacity over a temperature range of 25-300 ℃was studied with damping mechanical thermal analyzer (DMTA) and the microstructures were investigated by optical microscopy (OM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The experimental results show that the damping capacity increases with the test temperature elevating. Internal friction value of rolled sheet aluminum is up to 11.5×10^-2 and that of profile aluminum is as high as 6.0×10^-2 and 7.5×10^-2 at 300 ℃, respectively. Microstructure analysis shows the shape of precipitation phase of rolled alloy is more regular and the distribution is more homogeneous than that of profile alloy. Meanwhile, the interface between particulate and matrix of rolled sheet alloy is looser than that of profile alloy. Maybe the differences at interface can explain why damping capacity of rolled sheet alloy is higher than that of profile alloys at high temperature (above 120 ℃).展开更多

METHODS: IBS was diagnosed using the Rome Ⅱ diagnostic criteria. The entry of each patient was confirmed following detailed explanations of the questions. Four hundred and eighteen patients were studied. Subjects satisfying the Rome Ⅱ criteria for IBS were physically examined and stool microscopy was done to identify the presence of “alarm factors”. Depression was diagnosed using the symptom-check list adapted from the Research Diagnostic Criteria (DSM-Ⅳ) of the American Psychiatric Association. RESULTS: Seventy-five (56.8%) of the 132 IBS patients were depressed whereas only 54 (20.1%) of the 268 non-IBS patients were depressed. There was a significant relationship between IBS and depression (χ2 = 54.29, Odds ratio = 5.21, 56.8 ± 8.4 vs 20.1 ± 5.2, P = 0.001). Even though constipation predominant IBS patients were more likely to be depressed, no significant relationship was found between the subtype of IBS and depression (χ2 = 0.02, OR = 0.95, P = 0.68). CONCLUSION: IBS is significantly associated with major depression but not gender and bowel subtypes of the patients. Patients with IBS need to be evaluated for depression due to the highly significant relationship between the two conditions.展开更多

Hamiltonian is diagonalized by the method of unitary transformation. The energy spectra of this circuit are given. The quantum fluctuations of the charge and current of each loop are investigated by the method of thermo- field dynamics (TFD) in thermal excitation state,thermal squeezed vacuum state, thermal vacuum state and vacuum state. It is shown that the quantum fluctuations of the charge and current are related to not only circuit inherent parameter and coupled magnitude, but also quantum number of excitation, squeezed coefficients, squeezed angle and environmental temperature. And the quantum fluctuations increase with the increase of temperature and decay with time.展开更多

The effects of heterosis, combining ability and interaction on the growth of shell length were estimated. The results showed that the growth of hybrid larvae was intermediate between parents on days 6 and 9. Heterosis on shell length was observed, which varied at juvenile stage. The cross of ♂A×♀B (Hp varied between 10.41% and 68.27%) displayed larger heterosis than ♂A×♀B (Hp varied between 1.89% and 32.33%) did, suggesting that ♂A×♀B was an ideal hatchery method of improving the growth performance of Manila clam. The variances of general combining ability (GCA), special combining ability (SCA) and interaction (I) were significant in shell length (P〈 0.05), indicating that both additive and non-additive genetic factors were important contributors to the growth of larvae and juveniles. The GCA for shell length of ♂A×♀B was higher than that of ♂A×♀B at both larval and juvenile stages. This con- firmed that the cross between ♂A and ♀B showed great growth in shell length. In summary, the growth of Manila clam seeds could be improved by hybridizing selected parents from large numbers of full-sib families.展开更多

文摘To develop new type of high damping metal matrix composites, large grain size barium titanate (BaTiO3) ceramic was sintered and added into Al powder to fabricate BaTiO3/Al composites through the powder metallurgy method and hot extrusion. The damping properties of BaTiO3 ceramic, Al matrix and BaTiO3/Al composites were examined by dynamic mechanical analysis in the temperature range from 273 K to 573 K. The results show that although BaTiO3 exhibits high damping (tan δ=0.12) below 400 K, the damping capacity of 10%BaTiO3/Al (mass fraction) composites below 400 K is not increased as compared to the Al matrix. On the other hand, the damping capacity above 450 K is greatly enhanced due to the motion of dislocations at the interfaces between ceramic particles and Al matrix. The failure of exerting the intrinsic damping of BaTiO3 particles in the composites is attributed to the poor interface bonding between the particles and the matrix. The tensile strength of the composite is 42% higher than that of the Al matrix, which indicates the possibility of obtaining high strength and high damping composites via interface improvement and the addition of high volume fraction of large grain BaTiO3 particles.
