An FEM model was established, which can simulate the process of air releasing from the blast cavity. The effects of the charge density, the interval of the charge strip, the distance of the charges from the structure, and the mass of backfill soil on the overpressures applied on the tested structures were analyzed by the FEM model. The quantitative relationships between the peak value and the duration of the overpressure and the above-mentioned affecting parameters were established. Agreement between numerical results and the test data was obtained.展开更多

Upon cell division, the proteins in the mother cell are inherited by the daughters. However, what factors and by how much they affect this epigenetic inheritance of protein abundance remains unclear. Using both computational and experimental approaches, we systematically investigated this problem. We derived an analytical expression for the dependence of protein inheritance on various factors and showed that it agreed with numerical simulations of protein production and experimental results. Our work provides a framework for quantitative studies of protein inheritance and for the potential application of protein memory manipulation.展开更多

Three main aspects are involved in the current study. Firstly, vibration tests for dual specific piezoelectric fans actuating at the first-mode resonant frequency are conducted to illustrate the influence roles of vibrating phase difference and fan-to-fan pitch on the piezoelectric fan vibration amplitude. Secondly, heat transfer measurements are made to compare the heat transfer among single fan, dual fans in-phase and dual fans out-of-phase. Thirdly, three-dimensional numerical simulations are conducted to reveal the influence mechanism of dual piezoelectric fans on heat transfer. The results show that, the vibrating phase difference of dual fans has nearly no influence on the displacement velocity and amplitude of piezoelectric fan related to single fan once the dimensionless pitch(P/W) is beyond 1.2. The dual piezoelectric fans produce nearly the same peak heat transfer coefficient as that of single fan case.Of particular is that the dual fans operating in-phase produce more favorable heat transfer than the dual fans operating out-of-phase,especially in the gap zone between dual fans. Due to the interaction between dual fans, the streaming flow induced by one vibrating fan suffers the action of sweeping flow of another vibrating fan when they operate out-of-phase. While for the dual fans operating in-phase, the streaming flows induced by vibrating fans merge together to form stronger wall jet flow in the region between two fans.展开更多
