It is a high-pressure polymorph of the aluminosilicates of the ne-sosilicate group, which includes kyanite, sillimanite,and andalusite. These three aluminous or alumina-rich minerals are chemically identical with the compo-sition, Al;SiO;, but have different crystal structuresand physical properties. It is, however, their alumina展开更多

In the method, a power series that constants can be obtained from response moments (skewness, kurtosis, etc.) is used firstly to map a non-Gaussian structural response into a standard Gaussian process, then mean up-crossing rates, mean clump size and the initial passage probability of a critical barrier level by the original structural response are estimated, and finally, the formula for calculating first failure times is established on the assur^ption that corrected up-crossing rates are independent. An analysis of a nonlinear single-degree-of-freedom dynamical system excited by a Gaussian model of load not only demonstrates the usage of the proposed method but also shows the accuracy and efficiency of the proposed method by comparisons between the present method and other methods such as Monte Carlo simulation and the traditional Gaussian model.展开更多

The GNG top layer was fabricated on coarse grains(CG) AISI 304 by ultrasonic impact treatment. The results showed that the CG substrate could effectively suppress the strain localization of NC in GNG layer, and an approximate linear relationship existed between the thickness of substrate(h) and uniform true strain before necking(ε_(unif)). Grain growth of NC was observed at the stress state with high Stress triaxiality T, which led to better ductility of GNG/CG 304 in SPT, as well as similar true strain after the onset of necking(ε_(neck)) compared with coarse 304 in tensile test. Ei-values of GNG/CG 304 with different structures were nearly the same at different punch speeds, and good formability of GNG/CG 304 was demonstrated. However, punch speed and microstructure needed to be optimized to avoid much lost of membrane strain region in biaxial stress state.展开更多

It Was found that the aggregation behavior was strongly dependent on the concentration of polymer solution and the hydrophobe contents. With varying concentration from 2.0, 6.0, 8.0 to 12.0 g/L, there were different aggregate morphologies distributed in aqueous solutions, such as monopolymer chain, micelle-like aggregate, multi-micelle aggregate and cross-linked network. According to the model of aggregation, it can give a reasonable explanation on the large magnitude enhancement of viscosity with the increasing of polymer concentration. Additional data of 2D NOESY and fluorescence show that the copolymer with higher hydrophobe content(molar fraction≥ 1%) is likely to form intra-molecular association.展开更多

On the basis of the anal ysis of the experimental data,this model simplifies the number of cycles-total cyclic strain curve of concrete as three straight line segments,and it is assumed that the stress-strain curves of different cycles in each segment are the same, thus the elastoplastic analysis is only needed for the first cycle of each segment, and the stress or strain corresponding to any number of cycles can be obtained by superposition of stress or strain obtained by the above e lastoplastic analysis based on the cyclic numbers in each segment.This model spends less computer time,and can obtain the stress and strain states of the structures after any number of cycles.The endochronic-damage and ideal offshore concrete platform subject to cyclic loading are experimented and analyzed by the finite element method based on the model proposed in this paper. The results between the experiment and the finite element analysis are in good agreement,which demonstrates the validity and accuracy of the proposed model.展开更多

The local density of states (LOOS) of alloying elements in the steel displays the relationship between solid solubility and the shape of the LDOS. The bond order integral (BOI) between atoms in the steel shows that the directional bonding of the p orbital of Si or C leads to the brittleness of the steel. At last, ΣBOI between atoms demonstrate that C, Co, Mn, Cr, Mo, Si strengthen the alloyed steel through solid-solution effects.展开更多

It is found that the devices show different memory behaviors with the diverse geometry and thickness of Al. When the thickness of the Al electrode is relatively thick, the device of the cross-point Al electrode shows a three-level memory effect, and the counterpart device of the cross-bar Al electrode exhibits a volatile static random access memory effect. When the thickness of the AI electrode is thinner, the above devices demonstrate a flash memory effect. The different memory behaviors of ITO/GO/AI diodes are ascribed to the mode and degree of reduction and oxidation of GO.展开更多

Engineering change requirements can be extracted at any stage of the product redesign process, and it makes the management of engineering change become a challenging mission. The motivation for this study is to find the shortest path of behavioral change propagation (BCP), minimize the BCP, access to the special behavioral elements in order to better managing the BCP and classifying the behavioral attribute of the elements in terms of their relationship to change by betweenness centrality coefficient (BNCC), clustering coefficient (CLC), reachability coefficient (RC) and change propagation index (CPI). In this article, the procedure of managerial decision-making is proposed by combining system restrictions in behavioral clustering design structure matrix (BCDSM) with optimization algorithms. The practicality of suggested method is verified in redesign procedure of a phantom drone camera stabilizer as a case study. The results, indicate that the absorption of change by behavioral elements is dominant in the mechanical (63.9%), electrical (61.1%) and thermal (38.9%) behaviors of the drone camera stabilizer system in redesign process. These elements are best candidates for reducing the cost and time of behavioral changes in the system redesign and are desirable for the designer.展开更多

The resulting eopolymers containing a multiblock structure exhibited a high tendency for hydrophobic association and a high thickening capacity. Solution properties and aggregation structures were investigated by viscometry and fluorescence technique. The high viscosity enhancement was found as the polymer concentration beyond a critical value c* and strongly depended on the copolymer microstructures. The number and length of hydrophobic microblocks within the copolymer backbones could be controlled by changing the AEBA concentration in copolymerization system. Addition of salt induced more hydrophobic association and viscosity enhancement. The synthesis method used was simple and environmentally friendly without any external surfactant contamination in comparison with the conventional micellar copolymerization.展开更多

The corrosion performance of Mg-Zn-Y alloys was studied by combining gas-collecting test, immersion test and electrochemical measurements in order to determine the corrosion rate and mechanism of the alloys. The results showed that the volume fraction of Mg(12)YZn phase increased and the shape of the Mg(12)YZn phase changed from discontinuous to continuous net-like with increasing Zn and Y content. The corrosion rate of the alloys greatly depended on the distribution and volume fraction of the Mg(12)YZn phase. Corrosion products appeared at the junction of Mg phase and Mg(12)YZn phase, indicating that the Mg(12)YZn phase accelerated galvanic corrosion of Mg matrix. Mg(97)Zn1Y2 alloy shows the lowest corrosion rate due to the continuous distribution of Mg(12)YZn phase.展开更多

Glass particles of mean diameter 107μm and superficial gas velocities UE covering the turbulent and the beginning of the fast fluidization regime were investigated. Three static bed heights were tested. Ascending and descending particles were found co-existing under all oper ating conditions tested, and at all measurement locations. Superficial gas velocity proved/happened to have a larger effect on descending particles at the wall and on ascending particles in the central region. Transversal particle velocities in both directions (toward the center and toward the wall) behaved rela- tively equivalently, with only slight difference observed at the wall. However, observation of the number of particles moving in either transversal direction showed a change in bed structure when increasing Ug. Furthermore, a balance was constantly observed between the core zone and the annulus zone where the mutual mass transfer between these two zones occurred continuously. Transition from a slow to a fast particle motion was accompanied by a transition to high levels of velocity fluctuations, and was found corresponding to the appearance of significant solid particle flow rate.展开更多

Certain regions such as the hypothalamus, amygdala, and hippocampus are known to contain either AVP neurons or terminals and may play an important role in regulating complex social behaviors.The present study was designed to investigate the concomitant changes in autistic behaviors, circulating AVP levels, and the structure and functional connectivity(FC) of speci?c brain regions in autistic children compared with typically developing children(TDC) aged from 3 to5 years. The results showed:(1) children with ASD had a signi?cantly increased volume in the left amygdala and left hippocampus, and a signi?cantly decreased volume in the bilateral hypothalamus compared to TDC, and these were positively correlated with plasma AVP level.(2) Autistic children had a negative FC between the left amygdala and the bilateral supramarginal gyri compared to TDC. The degree of the negative FC between amygdala and supramarginal gyrus was associated with a higher score on the clinical autism behavior checklist.(3) The degree of negative FC between left amygdala and left supramarginal gyrus was associated with a lowering of the circulating AVP concentration in boys with ASD.(4) Autistic children showed a higher FC between left hippocampus and right subcortical area compared to TDC.(5) The circulating AVP was negatively correlated with the visual and listening response score of the childhood autism rating scale.These results strongly suggest that changes in structure and FC in brain regions containing AVP may be involved in the etiology of autism.展开更多

However, observation of the number of particles moving in either transversal direction showed a change in bed structure when increasing Ug. Furthermore, a balance was constantly observed between the core zone and the annulus zone where the mutual mass transfer between these two zones occurred continuously. Transition from a slow to a fast particle motion was accompanied by a transition to high levels of velocity fluctuations, and was found corresponding to the appearance of significant solid particle flow rate.

文摘The electronic structure of tungsten carbide was investigated by EHMO semiempirical me- thod.The most stable structure of the carbide was predicted on the basis of binding energy calcula- tions.The W-C bonding is covalent in nature with some charge transfer from the W to the C atoms. The increase in the occupancy of the d shell of the W atoms and the position of the Fermi level may account for the platinum-like catalytic behavior of tungsten carbide.

文摘Dysfunction of brain-derived arginine-vasopressin(AVP) systems may be involved in the etiology of autism spectrum disorder(ASD). Certain regions such as the hypothalamus, amygdala, and hippocampus are known to contain either AVP neurons or terminals and may play an important role in regulating complex social behaviors.The present study was designed to investigate the concomitant changes in autistic behaviors, circulating AVP levels, and the structure and functional connectivity(FC) of speci?c brain regions in autistic children compared with typically developing children(TDC) aged from 3 to5 years. The results showed:(1) children with ASD had a signi?cantly increased volume in the left amygdala and left hippocampus, and a signi?cantly decreased volume in the bilateral hypothalamus compared to TDC, and these were positively correlated with plasma AVP level.(2) Autistic children had a negative FC between the left amygdala and the bilateral supramarginal gyri compared to TDC. The degree of the negative FC between amygdala and supramarginal gyrus was associated with a higher score on the clinical autism behavior checklist.(3) The degree of negative FC between left amygdala and left supramarginal gyrus was associated with a lowering of the circulating AVP concentration in boys with ASD.(4) Autistic children showed a higher FC between left hippocampus and right subcortical area compared to TDC.(5) The circulating AVP was negatively correlated with the visual and listening response score of the childhood autism rating scale.These results strongly suggest that changes in structure and FC in brain regions containing AVP may be involved in the etiology of autism.
