Engineering construction in mountainous areas is a key factor inducing slope failure, whichposes severe threats to life and property safety during construction and operation. Thus, clearunderstanding of slope structure and potential failure mechanisms is of great importance forslope reinforcement. The Shangge landslide, located in a mountainous area of WesternHenan, China, was triggered by excavation along a toll station. The slope was still unstableafter a row of anti-sliding piles were constructed. To clarify the deformation characteristics andfailure mechanism of this landslide and provide reinforcement guidance for slopes with similargeological conditions, a combined method of field investigation, displacement monitoring,and numerical simulation was employed. The results indicate that the natural slope comprisesa dual structure of soil and rock, and that the soil, with poor permeability and high watermoisture, was prone to form a potential sliding surface. Secondly, slope excavation was thedirect triggering factor. Lastly, but most importantly, the preliminary investigation work failed toaccurately expose the potential position of the sliding surface, and the existing anti-slide pilesfailed to cross the potential sliding surface, which made them unable to effectively improveslope stability. The numerical simulation verified that the recommended piles installed on theplatform of level 2 could significantly improve slope stability. Therefore, when carrying outengineering slope design in similar geological environments, the slope structure and materialcomposition should be fully identified, and the influence of groundwater on the slope stabilitystate should be emphasized. These results can provide a reference for similar slopereinforcement designs.

Failure Mechanism of Face for Slurry Shield-Driven Tunnel in Sand

Handong Liu,Yafeng Zhang,Haining Liu 대한토목학회 2020 KSCE JOURNAL OF CIVIL ENGINEERING Vol.24 No.10

To achieve the failure mechanism of face for slurry shield tunnel in sand stratum, a model test device for shield excavation with ideal slurry film was developed. The active failure processes of tunnel excavation face in dry sand stratum for different densities and cover depths were achieved through model test and two-dimensional particle flow code (PFC2D). Furthermore, soil deformation, failure mode and soil arching effect of tunnel excavation face were revealed. The results show that the face deformation can be divided into three stages in relation to the support pressure and the excavation face has been failed in third stage. The density of sand has a great influence on the failure mode of excavation face. The failure mode in dense condition is a combination of a wedge with slip arc and a prism chimney, while in loose condition it is a relatively dispersed “trumpet” shape failure zone. However, the cover depth has a negligible effect on the failure mode. In dense sand stratum, a loose failure zone was formed in front of the excavation face and a soil arch was formed above it. The soil arch developed continuously above the tunnel crown to the ground surface. The limit support pressure calculated by PFC2D (two-dimensional particle flow code) increases with the cover depth, which is consistent with the observations in model tests.

Wu Hao,Liu Hongchun,Liu Haining,Chen Yanjie,Liu Taotao,Shen Xizhong,Liu Lili 한국유전학회 2022 Genes & Genomics Vol.44 No.5

Background: Differential diagnosis of Crohn's disease (CD) and intestinal tuberculosis (ITB) is still difficult in clinical pratice. DNA methylation has been considered as a favorable area for biomarker exploration and identification. Objective: The purpose of the current study was to evaluate DNA methylation changes between CD and ITB. Methods: We performed a genome-wide association study to identify differentially methylated positions (DMPs), including 8 CD patients (before the initial of biologics or immunomodulators), 6 ITB patients, and 8 healthy controls (HCs), in whole blood DNA using the Infinium HumanMethylation850 BeadChip. Results: Patients in the CD group and ITB group were all observed with hypo-methylated changes compared with HCs. However, the CD group overlaps with the ITB group in DNA methylation, suggesting a stable epigenetic profile between the two diseases. The pathway enrichment analysis showed the alternation in inflammation-related pathway, immune system, and signal transduction. Focused on the DMPs located in the promoter region, further analysis indicated hypermethylation of cg03122532 (5'UTR of KCNJ15) could be a potential CD-specific biomarker. Conclusions: We identified specific differential methylation loci related to CD and ITB in blood DNA. DNA metylation as a important epigenetic modification could contribute to the pathogenesis study and biomarker exploration of the diseases.

Haining Chen,Liqun Zhu,Weiping Li,Huicong Liu 한국물리학회 2012 Current Applied Physics Vol.12 No.1

In this paper, we reported an investigation on a new photoelectrode of quantum dots-sensitized solar cell (QDSC) combining indiumetineoxide (ITO) mesoporous film and CdS quantum dots (QDs). The ITO mesoporous film was prepared by doctor-blade technique and CdS QDs attached on ITO mesoporous film were synthesized by successive ionic layer adsorption and reaction method. X-ray diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscope, X-ray spectroscopy and UV evis spectroscopy were used to characterize the samples. The results indicated that the ITO mesoporous film was uniform, crack-free and highly porous. And absorbance in visible region was enhanced after the deposition of CdS QDs on ITO mesoporous film. The photoelectrochemical property of the CdS QDssensitized ITO mesoporous film photoelectrode was investigated by forming a photoelectrochemical cell. Photocurrentevoltage measurement showed that the photoelectrode was efficient in the cell as working electrode.

Experimental study on vortex-induced motions of a semi-submersible with square columns and pontoons at different draft conditions and current incidences

Liu, Mingyue,Xiao, Longfei,Lu, Haining,Xiao, Xiaolong The Society of Naval Architects of Korea 2017 International Journal of Naval Architecture and Oc Vol.9 No.3

The Vortex-induced Motions (VIM) phenomenon of semi-submersibles is relevant for the fatigue life of moorings and risers. Model tests regarding the VIM behavior of a semi-submersible with four square columns were conducted in order to investigate the effects of the current incidence and the aspect ratio of the immerged column. The experimental results show that the largest transverse amplitudes are around 70% of the column width at $30^{\circ}$ and $45^{\circ}$ incidences in a range of reduced velocities from 5 to 8 when the aspect ratio of the immerged column is 1.90. The largest yaw motion occurs at $0^{\circ}$ incidence with the peak value around $4.5^{\circ}$. Similar characteristics of the VIM response are observed for the semi-submersible with aspect ratios of 1.90 and 1.73. When the aspect ratio decreases 50% to 0.87, 30% decrease in the peak transverse amplitudes can be seen.

Hongjin Liu,Haining Wu,Jun Lv,Guangqing Xu,Xing Chen,Xinyi Zhang,Yucheng Wu 성균관대학교(자연과학캠퍼스) 성균나노과학기술원 2019 NANO Vol.14 No.11

Organic pollutants in water have been threatening public and environmental health. Developing efficient and sustainable photocatalysts working for degradation of organic pollutants under visible light becomes a big challenge. In this paper, high-efficiency visible light driven catalyst ordered mesoporous graphite nitride carbon (mpg-C3N4) was prepared by using SBA-15 as template and dicyandiamide (C2H4N4) as precursor. The specific surface area of mpg-C3N4 can be increased remarkably as compared to that of the bulk graphite nitrite carbon (g-C3N4) by adjusting the ratio of SBA-15 to dicyandiamide. Photocatalytic performance of mpg-C3N4 were evaluated systematically by degradation of Rhodamine B (RhB), malachite green (MG) and tetracycline hydrochloride (TC) under visible light irradiation. The results showed that the mpg-C3N4 (1 : 0.5) has the highest photocatalytic activity and stability and the degradation rate is for RhB, MG and TC are all more than seven times that of bulk g-C3N4. After five recycling runs, the mpg-C3N4 (1 : 0.5) remains high photocatalytic activities for the degradation of MG (94%) and TC (81%), respectively. Additionally, radical trapping experiments certified that the main active species are ·O2 - and h+, while the role of ·OH is irrelevant in the reaction processes. This work provides a promising pathway to prepare metal-free photocatalyst for degradation of organic pollutants under visible light irradiation.

The purpose of this study was to investigate dietary habits, health lifestyle, preference and intake of beverages of Chinese students in Gyeonggi area. Therefore, we try to identify the factors that affect beverage consumption. According to the analysis of the demographic characteristics of male and female Chinese students, there were 155 male students (49.7%) and 157 female students (50.3%). There were statistically significant differences between the residence period and the time of coming to Korea according to sex (p<0.05), but there was no statistically significant difference between the education level, residence type and Korean ability (p>0.05). Analysis of the differences in health-related lifestyle among Chinese students of both sexes showed statistically significant difference in alcohol drinking, smoking, and exercise according to sex (p<0.05), but no statistically significant difference in computer use time (p>0.05). According to the analysis of the dietary habits of the Chinese students, there was a statistically significant difference in the number of meals per day, breakfast, lunch, dinner, snack frequency and number of midnight snacks, but no statistically significant difference in eating out frequency. As a result of the preference test for general beverages, 4.11 points of water, 3.81 points of milk, 3.64 points of fruit and vegetable juice, 3.58 points of tea, 3.25 points of coffee, 3.22 points of carbonated drinks, 2.92 points of functional drinks, respectively. Male students were more likely to prefer water, tea, and health functional drinks while female students had higher preference for fruit, vegetable juice and vinegar drinks (p<0.05). In general, consumption of regular drinks was 4.95 in water, 3.58 in milk, 3.03 in coffee, 2.92 in carbonated drink, 2.91 in fruit and vegetable juice, 2.63 in tea, 2.07 in functional drink, and 1.44 in vinegar appear. Male students had higher intake of water, tea, carbonated drinks, and health functional drinks while female students had higher intake of fruit and vegetable juice (p<0.05). The results of correlation analysis of factors affecting the general drinking of Chinese students are as follows. The intake of tea was related to the period of residence and dietary habits, the intake of milk for breakfast, the number of snacks and midnight snacks for carbonated drinks, and the fruit vegetable juice were related to dietary habits (p<0.01, p<0.05).
