Jian‑bo Xie,Tian Fan,Han Sun,Zhi‑qi Zeng,Jian‑xun Fu 대한금속·재료학회 2021 METALS AND MATERIALS International Vol.27 No.6

To enhance the machinability and mechanical properties of 0Cr18Ni9 steel, free-machining element Te was introduced inthis work. By adding various quantities of Te to steel, several machining and tensile tests were carried out. Results show thatwith Te addition of 530 ppm, the number of inclusion sizes below 1 μm disappeared. With raising Te from 360 to 530 ppm,more MnTe–MnS inclusions of 10–40 μm were in spherical shape; above 50 μm2, the ratio of inclusion area at 530 ppmwas greatest among all, and the large-sized inclusions occupied a larger share. Te addition contributed to the surfaces ofmachining steels more smooth. The ultimate tensile strength of steel increased from 399 to 435 MPa. Te resulted in growthof sulfides and improved the machinability of steel.

Experimental study on cold-formed lipped channel stub columns reinforced by steel bars or steel strips

Jian-Feng Chen,Ming-Qi Chen,Yong-Kang Shen,Jian-Hua Shao,Xin-Xin Yang 국제구조공학회 2021 Steel and Composite Structures, An International J Vol.40 No.3

In this paper, the axial compressive properties of cold-formed steel lipped channel stub columns strengthened by rebars or steel strips are experimentally studied. The experiment included two sections. A kind of columns with local buckling is reinforced longitudinally by steel strips at the web. The other is the columns with distorted buckling, which is reinforced longitudinally by steel bars at the curling edge. The failure mode, deformation characteristics, ultimate bearing capacity and load displacement curve of the specimen are obtained through the experiment. On the basis of the experiment, the calculation results of theoretical axial bearing capacity of cold-formed steel lipped channel stub columns in Chinese, North American and Australian code are compared and analyzed. Research indicates: First, the cold-formed steel lipped channel stub columns strengthened by steel bars or steel strips can effectively improve the compressive bearing capacity of the specimen. Secondly, when the initial stress ratio of specimen is less than 0.3, the reinforcement effect is ideal. Thirdly, the three standards don’t stipulate the calculation of theoretical bearing capacity of the specimen strengthened after loading, so there is a large deviation between the theoretical calculation value and the test value.

Single-phased silicate-hosted phosphor with 660 nm-featured band emission for biological light-emitting diodes

Qi-fei Lu,Jian Li,Da-jian Wang 한국물리학회 2013 Current Applied Physics Vol.13 No.7

A single-phased (Ba,Sr)3MgSi2O8:Eu2þ, Mn2þ phosphor with 660 nm-featured dual band-emission is investigated upon optimizing composition to simulate the artificial photosynthetic action spectrum (PAS)for near-ultraviolet (NUV) biological light-emitting diodes (bio-LEDs). A specific composition range in Ba eSr binary solid solution of (Ba,Sr)3MgSi2O8 is found to be capable of obtaining single-phased host in the absence of an easily formed orthosilicate impurity, leading to a 660 nm-featured red band emission of Mn2+ induced by an efficient energy transfer from a co-doped blue-emitting Eu2+ sensitizer. This dual broad band emission phosphor has a 72 nm full width at half maximum (FWHM) for red band that covers fairly well to the absorption spectrum of chlorophyll and PAS for most plants, enabling a flexible option in the application of bio-illumination for artificial photosynthesis.

Qi Fei-Yan,Zhu Zhou-Hai,Li Meng,Guan Ying,Peng Qi-Yuan,Lu She-Ming,Liu Zhi-Hua,Wang Ming-Feng,Miao Ming-Ming,Chen Zhang-Yu,Li Xue-Mei,Bai Jie,Yao Jian-Hua 한국유전학회 2022 Genes & Genomics Vol.44 No.11

Background: Smoking behavior is influenced by multiple genes, including the bitter taste gene TAS2R38. It has been reported that the correlation between TAS2R38 and smoking behavior has ethnicity-based differences. However, the TAS2R38 status in Chinese smokers is still unclear. Objective: This study aims to investigate the possible relationship between genetic variations in TAS2R38 (A49P, V262A and I296V) and smoking behaviors in the Han Chinese population. Methods: The haplotype analyses were performed and smoking behavior questionnaire was completed by 1271 individuals. Genetic association analyses for smoking behavior were analyzed using chi-square test. Further, for investigating the molecular mechanism of TAS2R38 variants effect on smoking behavior, we conducted TAS2R38-PAV and TAS2R38-AVI expression plasmids and tested the cellular calcium assay by cigarette smoke compounds stimulus in HEK293. Results: Significant associations of genetic variants within TAS2R38 were identified with smoking behavior. We found a higher PAV/PAV frequency than AVI/AVI in moderate and high nicotine dependence (FTND ≥ 4; X2 = 4.611, 1 df, p = 0.032) and strong cigarette smoke flavor intensity preference (X2 = 4.5383, 1 df, p = 0.033) in participants. Furthermore, in the in vitro cellular calcium assay, total particle matter (TPM), N-formylnornicotine and cotinine, existing in cigarette smoke, activated TAS2R38-PAV but not TAS2R38-AVI-transfected cells. Conclusion: Our data highlights that genetic variations in TAS2R38 are related to smoking behavior, especially nicotine dependence and cigarette smoke flavor intensity preference. Our findings may encourage further consideration of the taste process to identify individuals susceptible to nicotine dependence, particularly Han Chinese smokers.

( Zhu Jian-qi ),( Fu Feng ),( Chong-kwon Kim ),( Yin Ke-xin ),( Liu Yan-heng ) 한국인터넷정보학회 2012 KSII Transactions on Internet and Information Syst Vol.6 No.5

Based on the theory of local-world network, the composition self-similarity (CSS) of network traffic is presented for the first time in this paper for the study of DoS detection. We propose the concept of composition distribution graph and design the relative operations. The (R/S)d algorithm is designed for calculating the Hurst parameter. Based on composition distribution graph and Kullback Leibler (KL) divergence, we propose the composition self-similarity anomaly detection (CSSD) method for the detection of DoS attacks. We evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed method. Compared to other entropy based anomaly detection methods, our method is more accurate and with higher sensitivity in the detection of DoS attacks.

Chun-Jian Qi,Yong-Ling Ning,Yu-Lan Zhu,Hai-Yan Min,Heng Ye,Ke-Qing Qian 대한약학회 2009 Archives of Pharmacal Research Vol.32 No.12

Chemotherapy for breast cancer is given on the basis of empirical information from clinical trials, an approach which falls to take into account the known heterogeneity of chemosensitivity between patients. This study aimed to demonstrate the degree of heterogeneity of chemosensitivity in breast cancers. In this study, we examined the heterogeneity of chemosensitivity in breast cancer specimens (n = 50) using an ex vivo ATP-tumor chemosensitivity assay (ATP-TCA). Assay evaluability was 92% in surgical biopsies or pleural aspirates. A variety of chemosensitivity agents were tested. We found that the most active single agent tested was paclitaxel, to which 65.9% of samples were sensitive. Combinations of agents also showed more strong sensitivity cases. The Adriamycin+5-FU demonstrated a strong sensitivity in 23 of 43 (52.3%) of samples. Adriamycin+paclitaxel was more effective, with strong sensitivity in 37 of 43 cases tested (86.0%). There was a marked heterogeneity of chemosensitivity in breast cancer. Chemosensitivity testing may provide a practical method of testing new regimens before clinical trials in breast cancer patients.

Chen Jian-Bin,Chen Qi-Zhong,Chen Zhao-Ping,Jiang Zhou-Hua,Huang Zong-Ze,Pan Jia-Qi 대한금속·재료학회 2012 METALS AND MATERIALS International Vol.18 No.1

Nitrogen absorption in molten metal for stainless steel AISI316 has been investigated by immersion nitrogen blowing through an immersed alumina nozzle with an internal diameter of 3 mm. Based on these experimental data, some kinetic parameters of nitrogen absorption, such as reaction order, rate constant and apparent activation energy of nitrogen absorption reaction, have been obtained. Effect of stirring by immersion nitrogen blowing through an immersed alumina nozzle on nitrogen absorption reaction has been observed. Results show the following: (1) Nitrogen absorption reaction is the −1.5th order reaction. The rate constant N is of the order of 10−5wt%2.5·min −1. Nitrogen absorption reaction for AISI 316 has negative apparent activation energy of −92.40 kJ·mol −1. This indicates that the nitrogen absorption reaction has a complex and multistep reaction mechanism. (2) The rate of nitrogen absorption reaction in molten stainless steel is mixture control by the adsorption of monatomic nitrogen on the surface of molten stainless steel and mass transfer in molten metal. (3) A rate equation of nitrogen absorption reaction has been derived based on a mixed control mechanism by both the -1st order nitrogen absorption reaction and mass transfer in molten metal.

Yu-Qi He,Xin Wang,Lang Yang,Jian Zhang,Qian Kang,Shan Tang,Peng Jin,Jian-Qiu Sheng,Ai-Qin Li 대한소화기내시경학회 2015 Clinical Endoscopy Vol.48 No.5

Background/Aims: Early colorectal (CR) neoplasm can be cured by endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD), but clinical experience and factors associated with complications from ESD for CR neoplasms in China have not been reported . Methods: Seventy-eight cases of early CR neoplasm treated with endoscopic resection performed between December 2012 and December 2013 at Beijing Military General Hospital were included. Factors associated with ESD complications and procedure times were evaluated. Results: The en bloc resection rate was 88.5% (69/78), tumor size was 32.1±10.7 mm, and procedure time was 71.8±49.5 minutes. The major complication was perforation, which occurred in 8.97% of the ESD procedures. Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that only tumor size (p=0.022) was associated with ESD perforation. Tumor size (p<0.001) and the non-lifting sign (p=0.017) were independent factors for procedure time, and procedure time (p=0.016) was a key factor for en bloc resection. After a median 10 months (range, 4 to 16) of follow-up, no patients had local recurrence. Conclusions: This study indicated that ESD is an applicable method for large early CR neoplasm in the colon and rectum. Tumor size and the non-lifting sign might be considerable factors for increased complication rate and procedural time of ESD.
