The patterns qualitatively corresponded well with experiments. Several properties such as concave single slit pattern and large influence of slight displacement of the emission position were different from the experimental results. In this study we tried other slit conditions and obtained consistent patterns with experiments. We do not claim that the adaptive dynamics is the principle of quantum mechanics, but the present results support the probability of adaptive dynamics as the candidate of the basis of quantum mechanics. We discuss the advantages of the adaptive dynamical view for foundations of quantum mechanics.展开更多

Ammonia borane(NH3BH3, AB) is a promising material of hydrogen storage, and it has attracted much attention in reductive organic transformations owing to its high activity, good atom economy, nontoxicity, sustainability, and ease of transport and storage.

A parametric study was conducted to evaluate the influence of different structural characteristics on the behavior of the double deck bridge under transverse seismic motions, and to detect the effect of bi- directional loading on the seismic response of this type of bridge. The results showed that some characteristics, such as the variable lateral stiffness, the foundation modelling, and the longitudinal reinforcement ratio of the upper and lower columns of the bridge pier bents have a major impact on the double deck bridge response and its failure mechanism under transverse seismic motions. It was found that the soft story failure mechanism :is not unique to the double deck bridge and its occurrence is related to some conditions and structural characteristics of the bridge structure. The analysis also showed that the seismic vulnerability of the double deck bridge under bi-directional loading: was severely increased compared to the bridge response under unidirectional transverse loading, and out-of-phase movements were triggered between adjacent girders.展开更多

The research of forming mechanism and three-dimensional modeling method for the double pitch worm gear set is not enough. So there are some difficulties in mathematical model deducing and geometry modeling of double pitch ZN-type worm gear set based on generation mechanism. In order to establish the mathematical model and the precise geometric model of double pitch ZN-type worm gear set, the structural characteristics and generation mechanism of the double pitch ZN-type worm gear set are investigated. Mathematical model of the ZN-type worm gear set is derived based on its generation mechanism and the theory of gearing. According to the mathematical model of the worm gear set which has been developed, a geometry modeling method of the double pitch ZN-type worm and worm gear is presented. Furthermore, a geometrical precision calculate method is proposed to evaluate the geometrical quality of the double pitch worm gear set. As a result, the maximum error is less than 6′10–4 mm in magnitude, thus the model of the double pitch ZN-type worm gear set is available to meet the requirements of finite element analysis and engineering application. The derived mathematical model and the proposed geometrical modeling method are helpful to guiding the design, manufacture and contact analysis of the worm gear set.展开更多

Double-Electrode GMAW (DE-GMAW) is such a modified arc welding process which is formed by adding a bypass torch (gas tungsten arc welding torch) to a conventional GMAW system. The mechanism of metal transfer in DE-GMAW was proposed and verified in this paper. Experiments show that the critical current is decreased so that spray transfer can be obtained at a lower current level in DE-GMAW. Analysis of this significant change in metal transfer phenomena is conducted, and explanation is given out. It is found that the bypass arc in DE-GMAW lifts the anode point on the droplets such that the electromagnetic force becomes larger and squeezes the droplets so that spray transfer can take place under welding current lower than that in conventional GMAW.展开更多

Disrupting either of the reactions will fulfill the purpose of inhibiting the replication of HIV-1. In this paper, pharmacophore modeling and molecular docking are employed to investigate the inhibition mechanism of the HIV-1 IN strand transfer inhibitors (INSTIs). Based on the results, we suggest that the inhibition mechanism of INSTIs involves the inhibitor chelating the cofactors Mg2+ and its forming hydrogen bonds with some crucial residues adjacent to the DDE active center.展开更多

The evolutions of { 100}, { 111} and Goss face texture during double rolling were investigated by comparing the orientation distribution function (ODF) of the double rolled sample with that of the single rolled one. The double cold rolling texture is characterized by a higher γ-texture and a lower α-texture, and the { 111}〈112〉 component is improved remarkably. Based on the TEM observation and mechanical properties test, it is found that the reduction ratio assignment significantly affects the texture variation, as-annealing microstructures, and properties of the double cold rolled samples. These results may provide a theoretical guide for the industrial production of double cold rolled IF steel.展开更多

The effect of frequency detuning as well as the intensity of the transfer beam is systematically investigated, which makes the transverse cooling adequate before the atoms leak out of the vapour-cell MOT to reduce divergence of the cold atomic beam. The typical cold atomic flux got from vapour-cell MOT is - 2 × 10^7 atoms/s. About 5 × 10^6 caesium atoms are recaptured in the UHV MOT.展开更多

文摘We applied adaptive dynamics to double slit interference phenomenon using particle model and obtained partial successful results in our previous report. The patterns qualitatively corresponded well with experiments. Several properties such as concave single slit pattern and large influence of slight displacement of the emission position were different from the experimental results. In this study we tried other slit conditions and obtained consistent patterns with experiments. We do not claim that the adaptive dynamics is the principle of quantum mechanics, but the present results support the probability of adaptive dynamics as the candidate of the basis of quantum mechanics. We discuss the advantages of the adaptive dynamical view for foundations of quantum mechanics.

Complex 1 crystallizes in the C2/c space group of monoclinic system: a = 14.4797(7), b = 12.4768(2), c = 13.3471(5) ?, β = 118.690(4)°, V = 2115.26(13) ?~3, C_(12)H_(16)HoN_5O_(17), Mr = 667.23, Z = 4, Dc = 2.095 g/cm^3, μ(Mo Kα) = 3.838 mm^(–1) and F(000) = 1304. The crystal structure of 1 is characterized by an isolated structure. Solid-state photoluminescence experiment uncovers that it shows yellow light emission. The emission bands are originated from the characteristic emission of the 4 f electrons intrashell transition of the ~5S_2 → ~5I_8 and ~5F_5 → ~5I_8 of the Ho^(3+) ions. Energy transfer mechanism is explained by the energy level diagram of the Ho3+ ion and the isonicotinic acid ligand. It has remarkable CIE chromaticity coordinates of(0.4929, 0.4632), so it may be a promising color converter for lighting and displays.

文摘Modification of conventional gas metal arc welding (GMAW) process is of great potential to achieve high productivity with low cost and strong usability. Double-Electrode GMAW (DE-GMAW) is such a modified arc welding process which is formed by adding a bypass torch (gas tungsten arc welding torch) to a conventional GMAW system. The mechanism of metal transfer in DE-GMAW was proposed and verified in this paper. Experiments show that the critical current is decreased so that spray transfer can be obtained at a lower current level in DE-GMAW. Analysis of this significant change in metal transfer phenomena is conducted, and explanation is given out. It is found that the bypass arc in DE-GMAW lifts the anode point on the droplets such that the electromagnetic force becomes larger and squeezes the droplets so that spray transfer can take place under welding current lower than that in conventional GMAW.

文摘Double network(DN)hydrogels as one kind of tough gels have attracted extensive at-tention for their potential applications in biomedical and load-bearing fields.Herein,we import more functions like shape memory into the conventional tough DN hydro-gel system.We synthesize the PEG-PDAC/P(AAm-co-AAc)DN hydrogels,of which the first network is a well-defined PEG(polyethylene glycol)network loaded with PDAC(poly(acryloyloxyethyltrimethyl ammonium chloride))strands,while the second network is formed by copolymerizing AAm(acrylamide)with AAc(acrylic acid)and cross-linker MBAA(N;N′-methylenebisacrylamide).The PEG-PDAC/P(AAm-co-AAc)DN gels exhibits high mechanical strength.The fracture stress and toughness of the DN gels reach up to 0.9 MPa and 3.8 MJ/m^3,respectively.Compared with the conventional double network hydrogels with neutral polymers as the soft and ductile second network,the PEG-PDAC/P(AAm-co-AAc)DN hydrogels use P(AAm-co-AAc),a weak polyelectrolyte,as the second network.The AAc units serve as the coordination points with Fe^3+ions and physically crosslink the second network,which realizes the shape memory property activated by the reducing ability of ascorbic acid.Our results indicate that the high mechanical strength and shape memory properties,probably the two most important characters related to the potential application of the hydrogels,can be introduced simultaneously into the DN hydrogels if the functional monomer has been integrated into the network of DN hydrogels smartly.

文摘The replication of HIV-1 requires the integration of its cyclic DNA into host DNA by HIV-1 integrase (IN), which includes two important reactions, 3'-processing and strand transfer, both catalyzed by HIV-1 IN. Disrupting either of the reactions will fulfill the purpose of inhibiting the replication of HIV-1. In this paper, pharmacophore modeling and molecular docking are employed to investigate the inhibition mechanism of the HIV-1 IN strand transfer inhibitors (INSTIs). Based on the results, we suggest that the inhibition mechanism of INSTIs involves the inhibitor chelating the cofactors Mg2+ and its forming hydrogen bonds with some crucial residues adjacent to the DDE active center.

文摘A novel terbium-mercury complex [Tb(IA)3(H3 O)2]2 n(2 n HgCl4)(n Hg2 Cl5)·n H3 O· 3 n H2 O(1, HIA = isonicotinic acid) has been synthesized through hydrothermal reactions and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Complex 1 crystallizes in the C2/c space group of monoclinic system with a = 24.2347(5), b = 20.8342(6), c = 15.3206(3) ?, β = 128.257(2)°, V = 6074.3(2) ?3, C36H41Cl13Hg4N6O20Tb2, Mr = 2458.80, Z = 4, Dc = 2.689 g/cm3, μ(Mo Kα) = 13.014 mm–1 and F(000) = 4520. The crystal structure of 1 is characterized by a one-dimensional(1-D) chain-like structure. Solid-state UV/Vis diffuse reflectance spectrum reveals the existence of a wide optical band gap of 3.36 eV. Solid-state photoluminescence experiment uncovers that it shows reddish brown upconversion emission. The emission bands are originated from the characteristic emission of the 4 f electrons intrashell transition of the 5D4 → 7 FJ(J = 6, 5, 4) of the Tb3+ ions. Energy transfer mechanism is explained by the energy level diagram of the Tb3+ ion and the isonicotinic acid ligand. It shows a remarkable CIE chromaticity coordinates(0.4158, 0.4005).
文摘Single cold rolling and double cold rolling were applied to hot rolled strips with different reduction ratios. The evolutions of { 100}, { 111} and Goss face texture during double rolling were investigated by comparing the orientation distribution function (ODF) of the double rolled sample with that of the single rolled one. The double cold rolling texture is characterized by a higher γ-texture and a lower α-texture, and the { 111}〈112〉 component is improved remarkably. Based on the TEM observation and mechanical properties test, it is found that the reduction ratio assignment significantly affects the texture variation, as-annealing microstructures, and properties of the double cold rolled samples. These results may provide a theoretical guide for the industrial production of double cold rolled IF steel.

文摘We have established a caesium double magneto-optical trap (MOT) system for cavity-QED experiment, and demonstrated the continuous transfer of cold caesium atoms from the vapour-cell MOT with a pressure of - 1 × 10^-6 Pa to the ultra-high-vacuum (UHV) MOT with a pressure of - 8 × 10^-8 Pa via a focused continuous-wave transfer laser beam. The effect of frequency detuning as well as the intensity of the transfer beam is systematically investigated, which makes the transverse cooling adequate before the atoms leak out of the vapour-cell MOT to reduce divergence of the cold atomic beam. The typical cold atomic flux got from vapour-cell MOT is - 2 × 10^7 atoms/s. About 5 × 10^6 caesium atoms are recaptured in the UHV MOT.
