Wen-Bin Wang,김윤희,Haeng-Soon Lee,Xi-Ping Deng,Sang-Soo Kwak 한국식물생명공학회 2009 Plant biotechnology reports Vol.3 No.4

To understand the adaptability of alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) to chilling stress, we analyzed the antioxidative mechanism during seed germination. The germination rates of six alfalfa cultivars were studied comparatively at 10C. Xinmu No. 1 and Northstar were selected as chilling stress-tolerant and stress-sensitive cultivars for further characterization. After chilling treatment, Xinmu No. 1 showed higher seedling growth than Northstar. Xinmu No. 1 exhibited low levels of hydrogen peroxide and lipid peroxidation compared with Northstar. In addition, shoots in Xinmu No. 1 treated with chilling showed higher activities of the superoxide dismutase, ascorbate peroxidase (APX), and catalase than those of Northstar, whereas Xinmu No. 1 showed higher APX activity in roots that Northstar. These results indicated that high antioxidation activity in Xinmu No. 1 under chilling stress is well associated with tolerance to chilling condition during germination.

Yu-wen Wang,Qing-zhu Yi,Yi Ding,Guang-xin Wu,Jing-bin Zhang,Ni Wang 한국섬유공학회 2021 Fibers and polymers Vol.22 No.4

To improve the accuracy of color reproduction for camouflage printing, a new color matching method, namedmonitor-paper-fabric, was proposed by importing color management into textiles, which matched the printing pastesaccording to the color of the paper card printed by the ink-jet printer after color management. Not like the traditional colormatching method, it matched the printing pastes according to the color from computer monitor after color correction. Twocolor matching methods were analyzed by comparing the color difference. It was found that the “monitor-paper-fabric” colormatching method could be considered as a convenient and feasible color matching method. Most color differences betweenthe monitor and the fabric in the camouflage pattern were reduced to lower than 4, except for color blocks 5 and 6. Inaddition, the color differences of six color blocks between the paper and the fabric were all less than 3.5, and were lower thanthose between the monitor and the fabric. The color consistency between the paper and the fabric was better than thatbetween the monitor and the fabric.

Role of Grain Refinement Mechanism on Microstructure and Performance in AZ31B Alloy During Interactive Alternating Forward Extrusion (AFE) Process

Yu Wang,Feng Li,Ye Wang,Qiang Chen,Xue Wen Li,Wen Bin Fang 대한금속·재료학회 2022 METALS AND MATERIALS International Vol.28 No.4

In this study, interactive alternate forward extrusion (AFE) experiments with varying number of extrusion passes of AZ31magnesium alloy were carried out. The evolution of microstructure, and texture and their effects on the mechanical propertieswere studied. The results show that with the increase of loading passes, the grains are significantly refined, and thedynamic recrystallisation (DRX) structure is uniformly distributed in the product, which is the main reason for the increasein microhardness, compressive strength and failure strain. Further, slip and twinning induced DRX behaviour are consideredto be the main deformation methods in the early stage of deformation. Whereas continuous DRX is considered to be the maindeformation methods for the change in grain morphology in the later stage. During the extrusion process, the deflection angleof the base pole decreases. Finally, the fibre texture is formed; the texture strength is significantly reduced because of theeffect of recrystallisation. The AZ31 magnesium alloy interactive AFE process is discussed with respect to the technologicalexperiment and the microstructure deformation, thus providing a vital scientific basis for further application.

Yin Bin Chen,Yu Fang Wang,Wei Hou,Ying-Ping Wang,Sheng-Yuan Xiao,Yang Yang Fu,Jia Wang,Si Wen Zheng,Pei-He Zheng 고려인삼학회 2017 Journal of Ginseng Research Vol.41 No.2

Background: Both ginsenoside Re and B-complex vitamins are widely used as nutritional supplements. They are often taken together so as to fully utilize their antifatigue and refreshing effects, respectively. Whether actually a drugenutrient interaction exists between ginsenoside Re and B-complex vitamins is still unknown. The objective of this study was to simultaneously investigate the effect of B-complex vitamins on the antifatigue activity and bioavailability of ginsenoside Re after their oral administration. The study results will provide valuable theoretical guidance for the combined utilization of ginseng and B-complex vitamins. Methods: Ginsenoside Re with or without B-complex vitamins was orally administered to mice to evaluate its antifatigue effects and to rats to evaluate its bioavailability. The antifatigue activity was evaluated by the weight-loaded swimming test and biochemical parameters, including hepatic glycogen, plasma urea nitrogen, and blood lactic acid. The concentration of ginsenoside Re in plasma was determined by liquid chromatographyetandem mass spectrometry. Results: No antifatigue effect of ginsenoside Re was noted when ginsenoside Re in combination with Bcomplex vitamins was orally administered to mice. B-complex vitamins caused to a reduction in the bioavailability of ginsenoside Re with the area under the concentrationetime curve from zero to infinity markedly decreasing from 11,830.85 2,366.47 h$ng/mL to 890.55 372.94 h$ng/mL. Conclusion: The results suggested that there were pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic drugenutrient interactions between ginsenoside Re and B-complex vitamins. B-complex vitamins can significantly weaken the antifatigue effect and decrease the bioavailability of ginsenoside Re when simultaneously administered orally.

Blue organic light-emitting diodes with 2-methyl-9,10- bis(naphthalen-2-yl)anthracene as hole transport and emitting layer and the impedance spectroscopy analysis

Xiao-Wen Zhang,Bing-Jie Mo,Li-Ming Liu,Hong-Hang Wang,Dan-Teng Chang,Ji-Wen Xu,Hua Wang,Bin Wei 한국물리학회 2014 Current Applied Physics Vol.14 No.11

2-methyl-9,10-bis(naphthalen-2-yl)anthracene (MADN) based fluorescent blue organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) are demonstrated. With MADN as emitting layer, experiments indicate that thick MADN (40e60 nm) is preferable for constructing efficient blue OLED. With MADN as hole-transport and emitting layer and tris(8-hydroxy-quinolinato)aluminium (Alq3) as electron-transport layer, the OLED electroluminescent characteristics show a mixture emission of MADN and Alq3 with Commission Internationale d'Eclairage (CIE) color coordinates of (0.25, 0.34), indicating feasible hole transporting in MADN. Using 4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline (BPhen) replacing Alq3 as electron-transport layer, the OLED shows deep blue emission with a maximum luminous efficiency of 4.8 cd/A and CIE color coordinates of (0.16, 0.09). The hole transport characteristics of MADN are further clarified by constructing hole-only device and performing impedance spectroscopy analysis. The results indicate that MADN shows superior hole-transport ability which is almost comparable to typical hole-transport material of N,N0-bis(naphthalen-1-yl)-N,N0-bis(phenyl)-benzidine (NPB), suggesting a promising application for constructing efficient blue OLED with integrated hole-transport layer and emitting layer.

Estimation of the load-deformation responses of flanged reinforced concrete shear walls

Bin Wang,Qingxuan Shi,Wen-Zhe Cai,YI-Gong Peng 국제구조공학회 2020 Structural Engineering and Mechanics, An Int'l Jou Vol.73 No.5

As limited well-documented experimental data are available for assessing the attributes of different deformation components of flanged walls, few appropriate models have been established for predicting the inelastic responses of flanged walls, especially those of asymmetrical flanged walls. This study presents the experimental results for three large-scale T-shaped reinforced concrete walls and examines the variations in the flexural, shear, and sliding components of deformation with the total deformation over the entire loading process. Based on the observed deformation behavior, a simple model based on moment-curvature analysis is established to estimate flexural deformations, in which the changes in plastic hinge length are considered and the deformations due to strain penetration are modeled individually. Based on the similar gross shapes of the curvature and shear strain distributions over the wall height, a proportional relationship is established between shear displacement and flexural rotation. By integrating the deformations due to flexure, shear, and strain penetration, a new load-deformation analytical model is proposed for flexure-dominant flanged walls. The proposed model provides engineers with a simple, accurate modeling tool appropriate for routine design work that can be applied to flexural walls with arbitrary sections and is capable of determining displacements at any position over the wall height. By further simplifying the analytical model, a simple procedure for estimating the ultimate displacement capacity of flanged walls is proposed, which will be valuable for performance-based seismic designs and seismic capacity evaluations.

Wen-Hua Teng,Wen-Jing Sun,Bin Yu,Fengjie Cui,Jing-Ya Qian,Jingze Liu,Liang Wang,Xiang-Hui Qi,Hua Wei 한국생물공학회 2013 Biotechnology and Bioprocess Engineering Vol.18 No.4

A continuous conversion process of rice starch hydrolysate to 2-keto-D-gluconic acid (2KGA) by Arthrobacter globiformis C224 was developed. Its feasibility for industrial application was also evaluated. Results showed that the initial cell concentration exceeding 1.25 g/L met the continuous 2KGA production at a stable dilution rate and media composition, while the dilution rate and feeding glucose concentration had a significant effect on 2KGA production performance. The optimal operating parameters were obtained as: 0.090/h of dilution rate and 171.0 g/L of feeding glucose concentration. Under these conditions, the steady state had a produced 2KGA concentration of 124.74 g/L, average volumetric productivity of 11.23 g/L/h,and yield of 0.97 g/g. In conclusion, continuous 2KGA production by the A. globiformis C224 strain would be a superior industrial process for the production of 2KGA in terms of its high 2KGA productivity and yield.

Product Model Integrated with Carbon Footprint for Lowcarbon Design

Bin He,Wen Tang,Jun Wang 한국정밀공학회 2015 International Journal of Precision Engineering and Vol. No.

Greenhouse gas emission has become a recent global concern for green manufacturing. As the production is one of the main greenhouse gas emission sources, more and more researches have recently begun to pay attention to product low-carbon design. However, the traditional product modeling is easy to produce an obstacle for low-carbon design and lack of an effective integrated modeling approach to support knowledge reuse in product low-carbon design. This paper is devoted to presenting product model integrated with carbon footprint. After the carbon footprint meta-model is proposed, the product model integrated with carbon footprint for low-carbon design is proposed. And the corresponding modeling principles for product model are also discussed in detail. The product model of a magneto-rheological fluid absorber integrated with carbon footprint is used to demonstrate the proposed methodology.
