The Experimental Research on a New Multiple Curved Surfaces Compound Focus Solar Trough Collector

A new trough imaging solar collector with multiple compounding curved surfaces has been designed. Its working principle and design parameters have been introduced. The experimental curve of temperature rising of the system with time under the real weather has been given. The system efficiency and the relation between efficiency and temperature have been calculated. The test result shows that the system has the advantages of high collecting temperature and not obvious variety of the collecting efficiency with the operating temperature. Therefore, this collector is a quite ideal medium temperature solar collector.

S-box:six-dimensional compound hyperchaotic map and artificial bee colony algorithm

Being as unique nonlinear components of block ciphers,substitution boxes（S-boxes） directly affect the security of the cryptographic systems.It is important and difficult to design cryptographically strong S-boxes that simultaneously meet with multiple cryptographic criteria such as bijection,non-linearity,strict avalanche criterion（SAC）,bits independence criterion（BIC）,differential probability（DP） and linear probability（LP）.To deal with this problem,a chaotic S-box based on the artificial bee colony algorithm（CSABC） is designed.It uses the S-boxes generated by the six-dimensional compound hyperchaotic map as the initial individuals and employs ABC to improve their performance.In addition,it considers the nonlinearity and differential uniformity as the fitness functions.A series of experiments have been conducted to compare multiple cryptographic criteria of this algorithm with other algorithms.Simulation results show that the new algorithm has cryptographically strong S-box while meeting multiple cryptographic criteria.

Molecular Dynamic Simulation on the Absorbing Process of Isolating and Coating of α-olefin Drag Reducing Polymer

The absorbing process in isolating and coating process of α-olefin drag reducing polymer was studied by molecular dynamic simulation method, on basis of coating theory of α-olefin drag reducing polymer particles with polyurethane as coating material. The distributions of sodium laurate, sodium dodeeyl sulfate, and sodium dodeeyl benzene sulfonate on the surface of α-olefin drag reducing polymer particles were almost the same, but the bending degrees of them were obviously different. The bending degree of SLA molecules was greater than those of the other two surfactant molecules. Simulation results of absorbing and accumulating structure showed that, though hydrophobie properties of surfactant molecules were almost the same, water density around long chain sulfonate sodium was bigger than that around alkyl sulfate sodium. This property goes against useful absorbing and accumulating on the surface of α-olefin drag reducing polymer particles; simulation results of interactions of different surfactant and multiple hydroxyl compounds on surface of particles showed that, interactions of different surfaetant and one kind of multiple hydroxyl compound were similar to those of one kind of surfaetant and different multiple hydroxyl compounds. These two contrast types of interactions also exhibited the differences of absorbing distribution and closing degrees to surface of particles. The sequence of closing degrees was derived from simulation; control step of addition polymerization interaction in coating process was absorbing mass transfer process, so the more closed to surface of particle the multiple hydroxyl compounds were, the easier interactions With isoeyanate were. Simulation results represented the compatibility relationship between surfactant and multiple hydroxyl compounds. The isolating and coating processes of α-olefin drag reducing polymer were further understood on molecule and atom level through above simulation research, and based on the simulation, a referenced theoretical basis was provided for practical optimal selection and experimental preparation of α-olefin drag reducing polymer particles suspension isolation agent.

Pharmacological characteristics of Kampo medicine as a mixture of constituents and ingredients

Herbal medicine in Japan is termed as Kampo medicine, which is derived from traditional Chinese medicine. Shakuyakukanzoto （Shao-Yao-Gan-Cao-Tang） as a kind of Kampo formulations is composed of just two components; Paeoniae Radix and Glycyrrhizae Radix, which produced marked relaxation of intestinal tract. Mokuboito （Mu-Fang-Ji-Tang） inhibited cardiac ionic channel currents, and as a mixture also produced great vasodilatation. Sinomenine （a main ingredient of Mokuboito） as a single compound also caused the vasodilatation, but decreased it along with ageing. Gypsum containing in Mokuboito and Chotosan （Diao-Teng-San） caused more marked effects, as compared with those without Gypsum. On the other hand, Rokumigan （Liu-Wei-Wan）, Hachimijiogan （Ba-Wei-Di-Huang-Wan） and Goshajinkigan （Niu- Che-Shen-Qi-Wan） increase in order the number of contained ingredients. The formulations with more herbs （ingredients） produced much more effective actions on rat aorta, presumably due to compensation of the decline of pharmacological sensitivity with ageing. Thus, there are some important differences between single chemical drugs and mixture drugs with many ingredients. The effects of Kampo medicine （mixture） are never just a sum of each effect induced by a lot of in qredients. For elder persons, furthermore, Kampo medicine exerts more effective actions.

Design,synthesis,and biological evaluation of multiple targeting antimalarials

Malaria still threatens global health seriously today.While the current discoveries of antimalarials are almost totally focused on single mode-of-action inhibitors,multi-targeting inhibitors are highly desired to overcome the increasingly serious drug resistance.Here,we performed a structure-based drug design on mitochondrial respiratory chain of Plasmodium falciparum and identified an extremely potent molecule,RYL-581,which binds to multiple protein binding sites of P.falciparum simultaneously(allosteric site of type Ⅱ NADH dehydrogenase,Q_(o) and Q_(i) sites of cytochrome bc_(1)).Antimalarials with such multiple targeting mechanism of action have never been reported before.RYL-581 kills various drug-resistant strains in vitro and shows good solubility as well as in vivo activity.This structurebased strategy for designing RYL-581 from starting compound may be helpful for other medicinal chemistry projects in the future,especially for drug discovery on membrane-associated targets.
