A management information system for mine railway transportation equipment

Good equipment management is essential for the day to day management of an enterprise. Targeted at production opera-tion of the railway transportation department of a mining group and aimed at mine railway equipment management, we have estab-lished a management information system for the equipment in the entire process of the life cycle of equipment. The project deals with basic data about equipment, initial management, maintenance, operation and even disposal, based on a C/S and B/S structure. We adopted an object-oriented approach, dealing with software engineering, information engineering, economic and organizational measures. Thus, effective monitoring and control of the operation of railway equipment and its status in the entire process has been achieved.

Gastric electrical stimulation for gastroparesis:A goal greatly pursued,but not yet attained

The lack of an effective medical treatment for gastroparesis has pushed the research of new techniques of gastric electrical stimulation (GES) for nearly half a century of experimentation with a large variety of electrical stimuli delivered to the gastric wall of animals and patients with gastroparesis. Three principal methods are currently available: gastric low-frequency/high-energy GES with long pulse stimulation, high-frequency/low-energy GES with short pulse stimulation and neural sequential GES. The first method aims to reset a regular slow wave rhythm, but has variable effects on contractions and requires devices with large and heavy batteries unsuitable for implantation. High-frequency/low-energy GES, although inadequate to restore a normal gastric electro-mechanical activity, improves dyspeptic symptoms, such as nausea and vomiting, giving patients a better quality of life together with a more satisfactory nutritional status and is suitable for implantation. Unfortunately, the numerous clinical studies using this type of GES, with the exception of two, were not controlled and there is a need for definitive verification of the effectiveness of this technique to justify the cost and the risks of this procedure. The last method, which is neural sequential GES, consists of a microprocessor-controlled sequential activation of a series of annular electrodes along the distal two thirds of the stomach and is able to induce propagated contractions causing forceful emptying of the gastric content. The latter method is the most promising, but has been used only in animals and needs to be tested in patients with gastroparesis before it is regarded as a solution for this disease.

The theoretical research on localization using improved particle filter for mine rescue robot in unknown underground space

The localization for mine rescue robot in unknown space of coal mine emer- gency was researched,basing on the requirement of mine rescue robot localization which enters the scene of the coal mine accident,unknown circumstance,the unstructured, non-Gaussian and nonlinear work-space for robot works.The localization using particle filter was proposed to which is applied in mine rescue robot in unknown under-ground space.Meanwhile,focusing on severe particle sample degeneracy in the primary particle filter,an improved particle filter was proposed to reinforce the stability of particle filter.Be- ing compared with localization using extended Kalman filter through simulation experiment the localization using particle filter is proved to have more locating accuracy in unknown underground space and better computational real-time ability,which solves the pre-local- ization problem of robot underground.

Application of Air Separation Unit in SINOPEC's Coal Chemical Business

With the rapid growth of coal chemical industry in China, the selection and application of Air Separation Unit(ASU) became very important. As the core unit in coal chemical industry, ASU will greatly impact the engineering construction and operation/production of coal chemical business. In this paper, major suppliers of ASU at home and abroad were reviewed, and the major supplying status of ASU in China was introduced. The ASUs in operation of SINOPEC were listed and discussed. On this basis, some suggestions of ASU selection strategies were provided on localization, standardization and operation methods.

Studies on Conversion of K in Potash Feldspar into Water-soluble Form

The studies for raising potash feldspar utilization ratio by physical, biological and chemical methods are carried out in laboratory and the results are presented. It is shown that calcinatory and biological methods have positive effects on conversion of K in potash feldspar into water-soluble form, but the conversion is low; chemical method can change most of insoluble potassium into available form, and might be significant in industry to some extent.

Operational program for proper capacity of electric bus charging station in Expo 2010

In the paper,an operational program of electric bus charging station is proposed,which is special for "The Construction Project for Expo 2010 Temporary Electric Bus Charging Station".Based on the quick-change mode,a vehicle operating schedule model has been established to meet the capacity of transport.Then,according to the quantity of passengers and utilization of batteries,a calculative method of parameters,such as the number of spare batteries and bus departure rules,has been provided.Furthermore,optimal simulation software designed for operating process of the charging station has been identified incorporating actual running data from electric buses and monitoring system of the charging station,and the rationality of the design is verified in the preliminary commissioning and the official operation.

唐代太子陪葬墓述略

唐代的陪陵制度始于唐太宗之时。贞观十一年(637),唐太宗下诏:'自今已后,功臣密戚及德业佐时者,如有薨亡,宜赐茔地一所,及以秘器,使窀穸之时,丧事无阙。所司依此营备,称朕意焉。'[1]贞观二十年,又'许陪葬者子孙从葬'[2]。此后唐太宗进一步规定了父祖陪陵、子孙从葬制度。从此陪陵遂成定制,成为最高统治者给予'功臣密戚及德业佐时者'的一种特殊待遇和荣誉,同时也是笼络人心。

Proteomic study provides new clues for complications of hemodialysis caused by dialysis membrane

The complications of hemodialysis accompanied the hemodialysis and threaten the patients’life.Besides the loss of nutrient substance,such as amino acid and vitamin,we found new clues that the adsorbed proteins on common-used polysulfone-based dialysis membrane might be the reason according to the qualitative proteomic study by ionic liquid assisted sample preparation method.Our results indicated that the adsorbed proteins on the membrane were related with complement activation,blood coagulation,and leukocyte-related biological process.The quantitative proteome further demonstrated some significant changes of signal proteins in the post-dialysis plasma after the hemodialysis,such as beta-2-microglobulin and platelet factor-4,which would further verify these new clues.
