Huabing Li,Jiandong Zuo,Biqin Dong,Feng Xing 한국콘크리트학회 2020 International Journal of Concrete Structures and M Vol.14 No.3

Lamellar inorganic fillers have been used to improve the performance of polymer composites. In this paper, five kinds of lamellar inorganic fillers, including montmorillonite (MMT), mica, talc, glass flake (GF) and lamellar double hydroxide (LDH), were selected to modify epoxy emulsion cement mortar (EECM). The research evaluated the effects of the structure characteristics of lamellar fillers on the mechanical properties, water absorption and chloride ion permeability resistance of EECM, with comparison to granular ground calcium carbonate (GCC). Results indicated that lamellar fillers had no obvious superiority than GCC in the mechanical strength of EECM, even MMT caused the decline of the mechanical strength. However, lamellar fillers had improved the chloride ion permeability resistance of EECM compared with GCC, and they had the similar effect on reducing of water absorption except MMT. Although the low aspect ratio (AR) of the lamellar fillers benefited the increase of the strength and water resistance of EECM, the lamellar fillers with higher AR could improve the chloride ion permeability resistance of EECM more efficiently.

Hongwei Li,Huabing Wu,Biyu Jiang,Anan Zhang,Wei Fang 대한전기학회 2016 Journal of Electrical Engineering & Technology Vol.11 No.1

Aiming at analyzing the power flow of the distribution systems with distribution transformer (DT) branches and PV nodes, a hybrid three-phase power flow methodology is presented in this paper. The incidence formulas among node voltages, loop currents and node current injections have been developed based on node-branch incidence matrix of the distribution network. The method can solve the power flow directly and has higher efficiency. Moreover, the paper provides a modified method to model DT branches by considering winding connections, phase shifting and off-nominal tap ratio, and then DT branches could be seen like one transmission line with the proposed power flow method. To deal with the PV nodes, an improved approach to calculate reactive power increment at each PV node was deduced based on the assumption that the positive-sequence voltage magnitude of PV node is fixed at a given value. Then during calculating the power flow at each iteration, it only needs to update current injection at each PV node with the proposed algorithm. The process is very simple and clear. The results of IEEE 4 nodes and the modified IEEE 34 nodes test feeders verified the correctness and efficiency of the proposed hybrid power flow algorithm.

Research on constitutive models of hydrogenated nitrile butadiene rubber for packer at different temperatures

Yun Huang,Yunxiu Li,Hua Zhao,Huabing Wen 대한기계학회 2020 JOURNAL OF MECHANICAL SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY Vol.34 No.1

In order to solve the problem of packer rubber failure at variable temperature and explore the effect of temperature on constitutive model of hydrogenated nitrile butadiene rubber (HNBR) for packer,this paper concludes that the Yeoh model is the most suitable for HNBR by comparing the experimental data at room temperature with the several common classical hyperelastic models. And it also concludes with a modified Yeoh model for different temperatures by modifing the material parameters as the temperature functions. And the stress-strain relationship of HNBR at different temperature is obtained,which can be used to prove the correctness of the model. Finally, the conclusion that the contact stress between packer rubber and casing increases with the increase of temperature is obtained through the case analysis of HNBR cylinder. The HNBR constitutive model obtained in this paper can provide theoretical basis for the engineering application of HNBR materials. It also extends the field that temperature affects on the HNBR constitutive model.

Influence of the evolution of heat-resistant phases on elevated-temperature strengthening mechanism and deformation behavior in Al–Si multicomponent alloys

Evolution of the heat-resistant phases and deformation behavior of α-Al matrix of four alloys have been characterized by SEM and EBSD. The strengthening mechanisms influenced by morphology and distribution of the heat-resistant phases were described. And the strain contouring of the α-Al matrix after deformation was rendered. The heat-resistant phases with block-like as reticular or semi-reticular network distribution exist in grain boundary can effectively provide elevated-temperature strength for alloys, while the strain contouring of α-Al matrix is mainly concentrated in the area with fewer intermetallic phases. It is shown that intermetallic phase evolution corresponds to extrusion treatment and the formation of eutectic Si and primary Si, highly interconnected networks of intermetallic phases exist in the alloy in which the primary Si and the eutectic Si are simultaneously present or disappeared. And only the disappearance of the primary Si and the extrusion treatment will destroy the network structure of the intermetallic phases. A reticular or semi-reticular microstructure is more capable of matching strength and plasticity and facilitating uniform deformation of the α-Al matrix. And the destruction of this microstructure is allowed to accommodate more plastic strain before failure.

Polyploidy breeding of cassava has been used to improve cassava traits over the past years. We previously reported in vitro induction of tetraploids in the cassava variety “Xinxuan 048” using colchicine. Significant differences in morphology and anatomy were found between the diploid and tetraploid plants. However, very little is known about the transcriptome difference between them. In this study, morphological and physiological characteristics including leaf thickness, plant height, internode length, chlorophyll content, and photosynthetic capacity were measured. Further, we investigated and validated the difference in gene expression patterns between cassava “Xinxuan 048” tetraploid genotype and its diploid plants using RNA sequencing (RNAseq) and quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Significant differences in morphology and physiology were observed during tetraploidization. A comparison revealed that tetraploidy induced very limited changes in the leaf transcriptomes of cassava “Xinxuan 048” diploid and autotetraploid plants. However, the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between 2× and 4× plants, especially those upregulated in 4× plants, were strongly associated with hormonal and stress responses. Large changes in morphology and physiology between the diploid cassava “Xinxuan 048” and its autotetraploid were not associated with large changes in their leaf transcriptomes. Moreover, the differently expressed genes related to the regulation of gibberellin and brassinosteroids potentially explained why the plant height and internode length of 4× plants became shorter. Collectively, our results suggest that 4× cassava is potentially valuable for breeding strains with improved stress resistance.

Many bacteria metabolize aromatic compounds via catechol as a catabolic intermediate, and possess multiple genes or clusters encoding catechol-cleavage enzymes. The presence of multiple isozyme-encoding genes is a widespread phenomenon that seems to give the carrying strains a selective advantage in the natural environment over those with only a single copy. In the naphthalene-degrading strain Pseudomonas putida ND6, catechol can be converted into intermediates of the tricarboxylic acid cycle via either the ortho- or meta-cleavage pathways. In this study, we demonstrated that the catechol ortho-cleavage pathway genes (catB_IC_IA_I and catB_IIC_IIA_II) on the chromosome play an important role. The cat_I and cat_II operons are co-transcribed, whereas catA_I and catA_II are under independent transcriptional regulation. We examined the binding of regulatory proteins to promoters. In the presence of cis-cis-muconate, a well-studied inducer of the cat gene cluster, CatR_I and CatR_II occupy an additional downstream site, designated as the activation binding site. Notably, CatR_I binds to both the cat_I and cat_II promoters with high affinity, while CatR_II binds weakly. This is likely caused by a T to G mutation in the G/T-N11-A motif. Specifically, we found that CatR_I and CatR_II regulate catB_IC_IA_I and catB_IIC_IIA_II in a cooperative manner, which provides new insights into naphthalene degradation.
