We have measured the electrical resistivity and the magnetoresistance of detwinned BaFe2As2single crystals in fields up to 16 Tesla. The temperature dependence of the resistivity shows acounterintuitive anisotropic behavior in the ab-plane, likely arising from the effect of the nematicsusceptibility. Little magnetoresistance is observed at temperatures above the structural/magnetictransition, below which a huge in-plane magnetoresistance with an anisotropy is detected.

Lin, Xia-Lu,Chen, Yan,Gong, Wei-Wei,Wu, Zhao-Fan,Zou, Bao-Bo,Zhao, Jin-Shun,Gu, Hua,Jiang, Jian-Min Asian Pacific Journal of Cancer Prevention 2014 Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention Vol.15 No.13

Background: To explore etiology for providing scientific clues for the prevention of lung cancer. Materials and Methods: Data for lung cancer incidence and meteorological geographic factors from 25 counties in Zhejiang province of China during 2011 were studied. Stepwise multiple regression and correlation analysis were performed to analyze the geographic distribution and epidemiology of lung cancer. Results: 8,291 new cases (5,998 in males and 2,293 females) of lung cancer during 2011 in Zhejiang province were reported in the 25 studied counties. Reported and standardized incidence rates for lung cancer were 58.0 and 47.0 per 100,000 population, respectively. The incidence of lung cancer increased with age. Geographic distribution analysis shows that the standardized incidence rates of lung cancer in northeastern Zhejiang province were higher than in the southwestern part, such as in Nanhu, Fuyang, Wuxing and Yuyao counties, where the rates were more than 50 per 100,000 population. In the southwestern Zhejiang province, for instance, in Yueqing, Xianju and Jiande counties, the standardized incidence rates of lung cancer were lower than 37 per 100,000 population. Spearman correlation tests showed that forest coverage rate, air quality index (AQI), and annual precipitation level are associated with the incidence of lung cancer. Conclusions: Lung cancer in Zhejiang province shows obvious regional differences. High incidence appears associated with low forest coverage rate, poor air quality and low annual precipitation. Therefore, increasing the forest coverage rate and controlling air pollution may play an important role in lung cancer prevention.

Xia Lin,Yuping Lu,Yao Li,Guibin Zou 보안공학연구지원센터 2016 International Journal of Grid and Distributed Comp Vol.9 No.8

More and more DG is connected with the grid through the low voltage distribution network, how to choose a protection scheme without depending on the nature of DG, and with reliable operation mode is a big issue encountered by the engineers. The rationally allocating the protection scheme of grid connection coupling point, which not only can judge the system fault in time, and judge it in DG island, and can still remain the protection features in the dynamic process of the island formation and in the operation mode of dividing island, can always have enough selectivity of the island fault is the problem to solve in this study. Through the selection of the grounding methods of DG grid connection transformer, the relationship between zero sequence current and zero sequence voltage is analyzed; the optimization of the protection scheme can inhibit DG interconnection and zero sequence over-voltage in network running-off, and quantity of zero sequence can be used as a stable criterion when the fault occurs, so as to work out a set of protection optimization schemes for DG interconnection transformer grounding system. Finally, through the COBASE system, a protection scheme of the wind power plant low-voltage grid is generated in this study, which verifies its excellent protection features in the DG connected to the grid system.

Xia Fang,Juan Shen,Jie Wang,Zhi-li Chen,Pei-bin lin,Zhi-yu Chen,Lin-yan Liu,Huan-xiong Zeng,Xiao-bao Jin 한국미생물학회 2018 The journal of microbiology Vol.56 No.7

Actinomycetes are well-known for producing numerous bioactive secondary metabolites. In this study, primary screening by antifungal activity assay found one actinomycete strain WA23-4-4 isolated from the intestinal tract of Periplaneta americana that exhibited broad spectrum antifungal activity. 16S rDNA gene analysis of strain WA23-4-4 revealed close similarity to Streptomyces nogalater (AB045886) with 86.6% sequence similarity. Strain WA23-4-4 was considered as a novel Streptomyces and the 16s rDNA sequence has been submitted to GenBank (accession no. KX291006). The maximum antifungal activity of WA23-4-4 was achieved when culture conditions were optimized to pH 8.0, with 12% inoculum concentration and 210 ml ISP2 medium, which remained stable between the 5th and the 9th day. 3-Acetyl benzoyl amide was isolated by ethyl acetate extraction of WA23- 4-4 fermentation broth, and its molecular formula was determined as C9H9NO2 based on MS, IR, 1H, and 13C NMR analyses. The compound showed significant antifungal activity against Candida albicans ATCC 10231 (MIC: 31.25 μg/ml) and Aspergillus niger ATCC 16404 (MIC: 31.25 μg/ml). However, the compound had higher MIC values against Trichophyton rubrum ATCC 60836 (MIC: 500 μg/ml) and Aspergillus fumigatus ATCC 96918 (MIC: 1,000 μg/ml). SEM analysis showed damage to the cell membrane of Candida albicans ATCC 10231 and to the mycelium of Aspergillus niger ATCC 16404 after being treatment with 3-acetyl benzoyl amide. In conclusion, this is the first time that 3-acetyl benzoyl amide has been identified from an actinomycete and this compound exhibited antifungal activity against Candida albicans ATCC 10231 and Aspergillus niger ATCC 16404.

Dynamic analysis of coupled train - ladder track - elevated bridge system

Xia, He,Deng, Yushu,Xia, Chaoyi,De Roeck, G.,Qi, Lin,Sun, Lu Techno-Press 2013 Structural Engineering and Mechanics, An Int'l Jou Vol.47 No.5

As a new type of vibration reduction, the ladder track system has been successfully used in engineering. In this paper, a numerical model of the train-track-viaduct system is established to study the dynamic responses of an elevated bridge with ladder track. The system is composed of a vehicle submodel, a track submodel and a bridge submodel, with the measured track irregularities as the system self-excitation. The whole time histories of a train running through an elevated bridge with $3{\times}27m$ continuous PC box girders are simulated. The dynamic responses of the bridge such as deflections, lateral and vertical accelerations, and the vehicle responses such as derailment factors, offload factors and car-body accelerations are calculated. The calculated results are partly validated through the comparison with the experimental data. Compared to the common slab track, adapting the ladder sleeper can effectively reduce the accelerations of the bridge girder, and also reduce the car-body accelerations and offload factors of the train vehicle.

Objective The current study aims to explore precipitating and social risk factors for internet addiction (IA) in university undergraduate students, and to provide evidence for interventions and the early prevention of IA in different genders. Methods Four thousand eight hundred and fifty-eight college sophomores completed an online survey on their internet use-related behaviours and social risk factors. Results We found that more male (8.3%) than female students (5.4%) had moderate and severe IA. The main online activity in the moderate and severe IA groups was online gaming in males and online streaming in females. Roommates engaging in similar internetbased entertainment was a risk factor of IA only for males, while not being in a romantic relationship was a risk factor of IA for females only. Infatuation with the internet before college and adjustment problems for college life were shared risk factors for both genders in the mild and moderate IA groups. Conclusion IA was a common phenomenon in college students with shared and unique precipitating and social risk factors in males and females. The gender-sensitive risk factors for IA warranted earlier and individualized intervention and prevention strategies for IA in this population.

Post-fire Bond Behaviors Between Grout and Steel Rebar

Liang-Lin Liu,Chun-Yong Luo,Lu-Xia Ouyang,Zhen-Hua Xia,Wei-Hua Li 한국콘크리트학회 2022 International Journal of Concrete Structures and M Vol.16 No.5

Firstly, according to the theoretical analysis, the force mechanism and failure modes were assured for the bond behavior between grout and steel rebar. Then, a pull-out experiment was exerted to probe the bond behavior developments of specimens after exposed to 500 °C. It is found that the mixed measures of pre-drying and slow elevating rate, i.e., 5 °C/min, inhibits the explosive spalling in grout with compressive strength of 76.7 MPa. In addition, there are two failure modes including the steel rebar fracture and the bond slip failure in the test. Based on the elevated temperature, compressive strength of post-fire grout, diameter of steel rebar and its embedment length, a new expression has been built to calculate the bond strength between grout and steel rebar of post-fire specimens. Furthermore, the finite element simulation is employed to investigate the bond behaviors of pull-out specimens after exposed to elevated temperatures up to 500 °C. The steel rebar fracture is captured firstly in the pull-out test simulation. Moreover, it is found that the peak slips increase and peak loads decrease along with the temperature elevating. Finally, it is proposed that the crucial elevated temperatures of the failure mode change should be 300, 300 and 400 °C for the specimens with embedment lengths of 6, 7 and 8 times diameter of steel rebar with diameter of 16 mm, respectively, which is beneficial for evaluating the fire safety of the existing structure elements.

Bayesian case influence analysis for GARCH models based on Kullback–Leibler divergence

Hong-Xia Hao,Jinguan Lin,Hong-Xia Wang,Xing-Fang Huang 한국통계학회 2016 Journal of the Korean Statistical Society Vol.45 No.4

Influence analysis has become an important tool for statistical analysis. This paper is concerned with Bayesian case influence analysis for generalized autoregressive conditional heteroscedasticity (GARCH) model. Case influence analysis is developed for both the joint and marginal posterior distributions based on the Kullback–Leibler divergence (K–L divergence). A simplified expression is presented for computing the K–L divergence between the full data posterior distribution and the case-deleted posterior distributions. The related computations can be done numerically by Markov Chain Monte Carlo samples from posterior distribution with full data. Some simulation studies are carried out to examine the performance of the proposed methods and show the relations between case-deletion model (CDM) and mean-shift outlier model (MSOM) for the GARCH models. Meanwhile, the methods are also illustrated by a real data.

Ischemic postconditioning protects cardiomyocytes against ischemia/reperfusion injury by inducing MIP2

Hong-Lin Zhu,Kang-Kai Wang,Xing Wei,Shun-Lin Qu,Chi Zhang,Xiao-Xia Zuo,Yan-Sheng Feng,Qi Luo,Guang-Wen Chen,Mei-Dong Liu,Lei Jiang,Xian-Zhong Xiao 생화학분자생물학회 2011 Experimental and molecular medicine Vol.43 No.8

Cardiomyocytes can resist ischemia/reperfusion (I/R)injury through ischemic postconditioning (IPoC)which is repetitive ischemia induced during the onset of reperfusion. Myocardial ischemic preconditioning up-regulated protein 2 (MIP2) is a member of the WD-40family proteins, we previously showed that MIP2 was up-regulated during ischemic preconditioning (IPC). As IPC and IPoC engaged similar molecular mechanisms in cardioprotection, this study aimed to elucidate whether MIP2 was up-regulated during IPoC and contributed to IPoC-mediated protection against I/R injury. The experiment was conducted on two models,an in vivo open chest rat coronary artery occlusion model and an in vitro model with H9c2 myogenic cells. In both models, 3 groups were constituted and randomly designated as the sham, I/R and IPoC/hypoxia postconditioning (HPoC) groups. In the IPoC group, after 45 min of ischemia, hearts were allowed three cycles of reperfusion/ischemia phases (each of 30 s duration)followed by reperfusion. In the HPoC group, after 6 h of hypoxia, H9c2 cells were subjected to three cycles of 10 minute reoxygenation and 10 minute hypoxia followed by reoxygenation. IPoC significantly reduced the infarct size, plasma level of Lactate dehydrogenase and creatine kinase MB in rats. 12 h after the reperfusion,MIP2 mRNA levels in the IPoC group were 10 folds that of the sham group and 1.4 folds that of the I/R group. Increased expression of MIP2 mRNA and attenuation of apoptosis were similarly observed in the HPoC group in the in vitro model. These effects were blunted by transfection with MIP2 siRNA in the H9c2cells. This study demonstrated that IPoC induced protection was associated with increased expression of MIP2. Both MIP2 overexpression and MIP2 suppression can influence the IPoC induced protection.
