生计流动:一种宋代女性行旅活动的历史考察

宋代女性为求生计而奔波行旅的活动是一种较为突出的社会现象,主要有:女性因自然灾害背井离乡,因外患内乱而流离行旅,因家庭变故而迁转流徙,因日常生活所需奔波行旅,因侍奉主人而随主行旅等方面。宋代女性的生计流动,体现出多样性、被动性、阶层广泛性、社会流动性、时代性等基本特征。它不仅关系女性自身生活,也是一个涉及宋人家庭、社会乃至国家的较复杂的历史现象,呈现出与"家内"或"闺闱"之内的生活迥然有别的面貌,反映出儒家理想与实际生活、性别规范与社会实践之间的差别,对于宋代女性与宋代社会而言都有不可忽视的意义。

农地转出户的生计资本流动及其影响因素分析

基于可持续生计分析框架和有序Logit模型,利用2016年湖北新洲区和襄州区225个农地转出户的调查数据,考察农地转出户的生计资本流动及其影响因素。研究发现:土地流转前,各类农地转出户生计资本的位序差异已经存在,土地流转使自然资本和金融资本的位序差异发生改变,其他资本的位序差异保持不变;土地流转后,农地转出户的生计总资本流动性表现出明显的组间差异,低生计资本组的生计总资本倾向于向上流动,而高生计资本组的生计总资本倾向于向下流动;带动生计总资本向上流动的因素包括打工型生计策略、兼业型生计策略及位于省会近郊的有利位置;非劳动型和务农型农地转出户受到土地流转初期的生计资本禀赋约束,无法选择更有利于生计总资本流动的生计策略。基于上述发现,提出了创造非农就业环境、培育新型主体等加强农户生计资本促进生计转型的建议。

Phase-field simulations of forced flow effect on dendritic growth perpendicular to flow

The effect of supercooled melt forced laminar flow at low Reynolds Number on dendritic growth perpendicular to melt flow direction was investigated with the phase-field method by incorporating melt convection and thermal noise under non-isothermal condition. By taking the dendritic growth of high pure succinonitrile （SCN） supercooled melt as an example, side-branching shape difference of melts with flow and without flow was analyzed. Relationships among supercooled melt inflow velocity, deflexion angle of dendritic arm and dendritic tip growth velocity were studied. Results show that the melt inflow velocity has few effects on the dendritic tip growth velocity. A formula of relationship between the velocity of the melt in front of primary dendritic tip and the dendritic growth time was deduced, and the calculated result was in quantitative agreement with the simulation result.

Phase-field simulation of forced flow effect on random preferred growth direction of multiple grains

The random distribution problem of dendrite preferred growth direction was settled by random grid method.This method was used to study the influence of forced laminar flow effect on multiple grains during solidification.Taking high pure succinonitrile （SCN） undercooled melt as an example,the forced laminar flow effect on multiple grains was studied by phase-field model of single grain which coupled with flow equations at non-isothermal condition.The simulation results show that the random grid method can reasonably settle the problem of random distribution and is more effective.When the solid fraction is relatively low,melt particles flow around the downstream side of dendrite,and the flow velocity between two dendrite arms becomes high.At the stage of solidification time less than 1800Δt,every dendrite grows freely;the upstream dendrites are stronger than the downstream ones.The higher the melt flow rate,the higher the solid fraction.However,when the solid fraction is relatively high,the dendrite arm intertwins and only a little residual melt which is not encapsulated can flow;the solid fraction will gradually tend to equal to solid fraction of melt without flow.

Inducible nitric oxide synthase expression is related to angiogenesis,bcl—2 and cell proliferation in hepatocellular carcinoma

In this study, we examined the expression of inducible nitric oxide s ynthase (iNOS) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) by immunohistoc hemi cal staining in 76 tissue sections collected from hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients undergoing hepatectomy. Microvascular density (MVD) was determined by counting endothelial cells immunostained using anti-CD34 antibody. We performe d DNA-flow cytometric analyses to elucidate the impact of iNOS and VEGF expressi o n on the cell cycle of HCC. Most of the HCC cells that invaded stroma were mark edly immunostained by iNOS antibody. The iNOS stain intensity of the liver tissu e close to the tumor edge was stronger than that of HCC tissue, and the stronges t was the hepatocytes closer to the tumor tissue. However, iNOS expression in 10 normal hepatic samples was undetectable. VEGF positive expression ratio was 84. 8% in iNOS positive expression cases, and the ratio was 35.3% in negative cases. There was significant correlation (P=0.000) between iNOS and VEGF expressi on. Moreover, iNOS expression was significantly associated with bcl-2 and MVD, but w ithout p53 expression. DNA-flow cytometric analyses showed that combined expres s ion of iNOS and VEGF had significant impact on the cell cycle in HCC. PI (Proli ferating Index) and SPF (S-phase fraction) in the combined positive expression o f iNOS and VEGF group was significantly higher than that in the combined negativ e group. The present findings suggested that iNOS expression was significantly a ssociated with angiogenesis, bcl-2 and cell proliferation of HCC.

The Contribution of Opal-Associated Phosphorus to Bioavailable Phosphorus in Surface and Core Sediments in the East China Sea

To improve the burial flux calculations of bioavailable phosphorus （P） and study opal-associated P （Opal-P） in the East China Sea （ECS）, surface and core sediments were collected in the Changjiang Estuary （CE） and the south of the Cheju Island. In this study, sedimentary P was operationally divided into seven different forms using modified sedimentary extraction （SEDEX） technique： LSor-P （exchangeable or loosely sorbed P）, Fe-P （easily reducible or reactive ferric Fe-bound P）, CFA-P （authigenic carbonate fluorapatite and biogenic apatite and CaCO3-bound P）, Detr-P （detrital apatite）, Org-P （organic P）, Opal-P and Ref-P （refractory P）. The data revealed that the concentrations of the seven different P forms rank as Detr-P 〉 CFA-P 〉 Org-P 〉 Ref-P 〉 Opal-P 〉 Fe-P 〉 LSor-P in surface sediments and CFA-P 〉 Detr-P 〉 Org-P 〉 Ref-P 〉 Fe-P 〉 Opal-P 〉 LSor-P in core sediments. The distributions of the total phosphorus （TP）, TIP, CFA-P, Detr-P are similar and decrease from the CE to the south of the Cheju Island. Meanwhile, Org-P and Opal-P exhibit different distribution trends; this may be affected by the grain size and TOM. The concentrations of potentially bioavailable P are 9.6-13.0 μmol g^-1 and 10.0-13.6 μmol g^-1, representing 61%-70% and 41%？64% of the TP in surface and core sediments, respectively. The concentrations of Opal-P are 0.6-2.3 μmol g^-1 and 0.6-1.4 μmol g^-1 in surface and core sediments, ac-counting for 5.3%？19.8% and 4.2%？10.6% of bioavailable P, respectively. The total burial fluxes of Opal-P and bioavailable P are 1.4×10^9 mol y^-1 and 1.1×10^10 mol yr^-1 in the ECS, respectively. Opal-P represents about 12.7% of potentially bioavailable P, which should be recognized when studying P cycling in marine ecosystems.

Heat Transfer Validation and Comparative Evaluation of Biochar Yield from Pyrolysis Cook Stove

The developing world still largely depends on biomass, such as wood, animal dung and agricultural waste for domestic fuel sources that are typically burned in traditional stoves. Ethiopia has different biomass resource for biochar production, through pyrolysis cook stove co-producing biochar. Coffee husks are the major solid residues from the handling and processing of coffee in the study area. This study was to evaluate the biochar co-producing pyrolysis cook stove with respect to heat transfer through the bed and biochar yield. From allothermal type of pyrolysis cook stove, the stove design was selected for both the computational fluid dynamic （CFD） simulation and experimental measurements. ANSYS 14.5 was used for CFD simulation of the wood combustion. The production of biochar from coffee husk, corncob and sawdust at different heating times, bed and stove surface temperature were undertaken. Bulk density, pH and surface area of the biochar were measured. While good agreement between simulation and experimental result was obtained in the conduction phase during pyrolysis, deviation between the two on account of the effect of volatile gas in changing the temperature trend within the biomass bed was noticed. Within the biomass type, the maximum mean biochar yield （38.91%） was seen from coffee husk. In the case of different stove designs, the minimum mean biochar yield （27.11%） was found from normal Anila stove. The pH of biochar is found to be significantly affected by the type of biomass （9.83 mean for corncob and coffee husk, 6.43 mean for sawdust）, heating time （9.19 mean for 90 min and 8.01 mean for 30 min） and stove type （9.52 mean for normal Anila and 8.01 mean for flangeless Anila continuous feeding type）. In fact, the type of biomass is observed to significantly affect the bulk density and surface area ofbiochar.

Peculiarities of Rent Flows Formation in the Area of Renewable Natural Resources and the Necessity of Their Accounting for Regional Development

Natural landscapes provide ability to live of local people. Because of the lack of information about the rent streams which are created in non-wood resources usage sphere, the priority of the state policy is given to the wood crude product. The purpose of this article is to explain why the ecology-economic accounting of wildlife resources is needed. Methodological approaches of the environment resources by the United Nations allow to define the rent streams created in sector of private households. Based on full economic value of non-wood resources the measurement of rent flows will allow to carry out updating of a state policy and to develop the mechanism of natural landscapes preservation and to increase socially-ecological efficiency of it＇s using.

A computational analysis of the impact of mass transport and shear on three-dimensional stem cell cultures in perfused micro-bioreactors

In this study, Computational Fluid Dynamics(CFD) is used to investigate and compare the impact of bioreactor parameters(such as its geometry, medium flow-rate, scaffold configuration) on the local transport phenomena and, hence, their impact on human mesenchymal stem cell(hM SC) expansion. The geometric characteristics of the TissueFlex174;(Zyoxel Limited, Oxford, UK) microbioreactor were considered to set up a virtual bioreactor containing alginate(in both slab and bead configuration) scaffolds. The bioreactor and scaffolds were seeded with cells that were modelled as glucose consuming entities. The widely used glucose medium, Dulbecco's Modified Eagle Medium(DMEM), supplied at two inlet flow rates of 25 and 100 μl·h^(-1), was modelled as the fluid phase inside the bioreactors. The investigation, based on applying dimensional analysis to this problem, as well as on detailed three-dimensional transient CFD results, revealed that the default bioreactor design and boundary conditions led to internal and external glucose transport, as well as shear stresses, that are conducive to h MSC growth and expansion. Furthermore, results indicated that the ‘top-inout' design(as opposed to its symmetric counterpart) led to higher shear stress for the same media inlet rate(25 μl·h^(-1)), a feature that can be easily exploited to induce shear-dependent differentiation. These findings further confirm the suitability of CFD as a robust design tool.

Shape optimization of the caudal fin of the three-dimensional self-propelled swimming fish

Shape optimization of the caudal fin of the three-dimensional self-propelled swimming fish,to increase the swimming efficiency and the swimming speed and control the motion direction more easily,is investigated by combining optimization algorithms,unsteady computational fluid dynamics and dynamic control in this study.The 3D computational fluid dynamics package contains the immersed boundary method,volume of fluid method,the adaptive multi-grid finite volume method and the control strategy of fish swimming.Through shape optimizations of various swimming speeds,the results show that the optimal caudal fins of different swimming modes are not exactly the same shape.However,the optimal fish of high swimming speed,whose caudal fin shape is similar to the crescent,also have higher efficiency and better maneuverability than the other optimal bionic fish at low and moderate swimming speeds.Finally,the mechanisms of vorticity creation of different optimal bionic fish are studied by using boundary vorticity-flux theory,and three-dimensional wake structures of self-propelled swimming of these fish are comparatively analyzed.The study of vortex dynamics reveals the nature of efficient swimming of the 3D bionic fish with the lunate caudal fin.

A perspective on high-order methods in computational fluid dynamics

There has been an intensive international effort to develop high-order Computational Fluid Dynamics(CFD) methods into design tools in aerospace engineering during the last one and half decades. These methods offer the potential to significantly improve solution accuracy and efficiency for vortex dominated turbulent flows. Enough progresses have been made in algorithm development, mesh generation and parallel computing that these methods are on the verge of being applied in a production design environment. Since many review papers have been written on the subject, I decide to offer a personal perspective on the state-of-the-art in high-order CFD methods and the challenges that must be overcome.
