Double linear strain distribution assumption of RC beam strengthened with external-bonded or near-surface mounted fiber reinforced plastic

Rehabilitation of existing structures with fiber reinforced plastic(FRP)has been growing in popularity because they offer superior performance in terms of resistance to corrosion and high specific stiffness.The strain coordination results of 34 reinforced concrete beams(four groups)strengthened with different methods were presented including external-bonded or near-surface mounted glass or carbon FRP or helical rib bar in order to study the strain coordination of the strengthening materials and steel rebar of RC beam.Because there is relative slipping between concrete and strengthening materials(SM),the strain of SM and steel rebar of RC beam satisfies the double linear strain distribution assumption,that is,the strain of longitudinal fiber parallel to the neutral axis of plated beam within the scope of effective height(h0)of the cross section is in direct proportion to the distance from the fiber to the neutral axis.The strain of SM and steel rebar satisfies the equation εGCH=βεsteel,where the value of β is equal to 1.1-1.3 according to the test results.

BINDING ENERGY OF THE SHALLOW DONOR IN （CdTe）_m／（ZnTe）_n STRAINED DOUBLE QUANTUM WELL

In this paper the binding energy of the shallow.donor in CdTe/ZnTe strained double quantum well was calculated.The effect of the finite well potential and strain,resulting from the lattice mismatch,on the binding energy of the impurity is included in a variational framework.The binding energy is obtained as a function of the well width,barrier width,and impurity position in the barrier by using a variational method.The result of the present calculation shows that the variational law of the binding energy is similar to that of unstrained materials.

Study on the Effect and Mechanism of Green Plum Citron Double Strain Fermentation Filtrate on Skin Barrier

To study the effect of Green plum citron double strain fermentation filtrate(DSF)on the proliferation rate of HaCaT keratinocytes by CCK8 assay.The effect of DSF on the mRNA transcription levels of filagolin(FLG),loricrin(LOR),and occludin 1(CLD1)in HaCaT cells in sodium dodecyl sulfate(SLS)model was investigated by qPCR.The effect of DSF on the content of TNF-αin the supernatant of HaCaT cells in the model was investigated by Elisa.The results showed that DSF had no toxicity to HaCaT cells,but it could increase the mRNA transcription levels of FLG,LOR and CLD1 in HaCaT cells in the model,and reduce the content of TNF-αin the supernatant of HaCaT cells in the model.DSF had a certain effect on skin care of strengthening skin barrier.

Strain effects on performance of electroabsorption optical modulators

This paper reports a detailed theoretical investigation of strain effects on the performance of electroabsorption optical modulators based on the asym- metric intra-step-barrier coupled double strained quantum wells （AICD-SQWs） active layer. For this purpose, the electroabsorption coefficient was calculated over a range of AICD-SQWs strain from compressive to tensile strain. Then, the extinction ratio （ER） and insertion loss parameters were evaluated from calculated electroabsorp- tion coefficient for transverse electric （TE） input light polarization. The results of the simulation suggest that the tensile strain from 0.05% to 0.2% strain in the wide quantum well has a significant impact on the ER and insertion loss as compared with compressive strain, whereas the compressive strain of the narrow quantum well from -0.5% to -0.7% strain has a more pronounced impact on the improvement of the ER and insertion loss as compared with tensile strain.
