MnOx–CuOx/TiO2 and MnOx–CuOx/Al2O3 catalysts were prepared by sol–gel method and used for low temperature selective catalytic reduction of NO with NH3. The results showed that MnOx–CuOx/TiO2 had better catalytic activity and SO2 resistance than MnOx–CuOx/Al2O3 in the temperature range of 100–250 ℃. The properties of the catalysts were characterized by using XRD, N2 adsorption, temperature programmed reduction (H2-TPR) and temperature programmed desorption (NH3-TPD). It was found that the support has a great impact on the acidity of catalyst; TiO2 and Al2O3 can promote the formation of Lewis acid sites and Bro¨ nsted acid sites respectively.

CeO2/Al2O3 catalysts prepared by three methods were investigated for selective reduction of NO with NH3. It was found that the catalyst prepared by the single step sol–gel method had the best SCR activity and SO2 resistance performance. From the results of BET, XRD, TPD and TPR, it can be concluded that large surface area, strong interaction, highly dispersed nano-crystalline ceria, high NH3 adsorption capacity and good redox ability might be the main reasons for the excellent performance of CeO2/Al2O3catalyst prepared by the single step sol–gel method.

Rui-Tang Guo,Wen-long Zhen,Wei-Guo Pan,Yue Zhou,Jie-nan Hong,Hong-jian Xu,Qiang Jin,Cheng-gang Ding,Shi-yi Guo 한국공업화학회 2014 Journal of Industrial and Engineering Chemistry Vol.20 No.4

CeO2–CuO catalyst prepared by citric acid method was investigated for selective catalytic reduction of NO with NH3. The activity of the CeO2 catalyst was enhanced about 8–27% in the temperature range of 125–225 ℃ at a space velocity of 28,000 h 1 by the addition of Cu. It was found that the state of Cu species had great impact on the SCR performance of CeO2–CuO catalyst. Cu2+ can enhance the low temperature activity of SCR reaction, while CuO would promote NH3 oxidation before SCR reaction at high temperature, which would cause the decrease of its high temperature SCR activity.

Guo, Zhen,Kim, Yong-Seok,Hong, Suk-Woo,Li, Hao-Chuang,Koo, Jae-Mean,Seok, Chang-Sung,Lee, Ki-Won,Kwon, Sam-Young Korean Society for Precision Engineering 2014 International Journal of Precision Engineering and Vol.15 No.11

To evaluate the bending fatigue characteristics of contact wire, a stroke-based bending fatigue tester on contact wire has been developed by Kang et al. But this tester is too cumbersome and complicated. This paper is investigated with a new fatigue life estimation method based on Juvinall's method for estimation of S-N curve, which is widely used in steel structure, in order to estimate the bending S-N curve of cold drawn contact wire. First, the ultimate tensile strength and the axial tension fatigue test was performed with standard specimens, and the bending fatigue life for the cold drawn contact wire structure was predicted by using an improved S-N curve prediction method. Finally, the tested bending fatigue life of the structure was compared with the fatigue life estimated by the new method. As the result, the predicted bending S-N curve of the contact wire agreed fairly well with the experimental bending fatigue lives using the S-N curve and ultimate tensile strength of cold drawn material.

Genomic aberrations of rectal carcinoma, especially DNA copy number changes associated with metastasis were largely unclear. We aim to identify the metastasis associated biomarkers in stage II rectal cancer. Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded primary tumor tissues of stage II rectal carcinoma were analyzed by array-based comparative genomic hybridization, and genomic aberrations were identified by Genomic Workbench and SAM software. Copy number changes and mRNA expressions were validated by Real-time PCR in an independent rectal cancer samples. The results showed that the most frequent gains in stage II rectal cancer were at 1q21.2-q23.1, 3p21.31, 11q12.2-q23.3, 12q24.11-q24.31, 12q13.11-q14.1 and losses in 18q11.2-q23, 17q21.33-q22, 13q31.1-q31.3, 21q21.1-q21.3, 8p23.3-p23.1 and 4q22.1-q23. Twenty-two amplifications and five homozygous deletions were also identified. We further found that S100A1 (1q21.3-q23.1), MCM7 (7q22.1) and JUND (19p13.11) were amplified and overexpressed in stage II rectal cancer. Interestingly, the genomic aberrations affected 14 signaling pathways including VEGF signaling pathway and fatty acid metabolism. Most importantly, loss of 13q31.1-q34 and gain of 1q44 were associated with distant metastasis. Our results indicated that these metastasis associated genomic changes may be useful to reveal the pathogenesis of rectal cancer metastasis and identify candidate biomarkers.

Robust Secure UAV Relay-Assisted Cognitive Communications with Resource Allocation and Cooperative Jamming

Zhen Wang,Jichang Guo,Zhiqiong Chen,Zhiqiong Chen,Lisu Yu,Yuhao Wang,Hong Rao 한국통신학회 2022 Journal of communications and networks Vol.24 No.2

This paper considers a novel scenario, where a physicallayer security issue is studied in unmanned aerial vehicles(UAVs)-assisted cognitive relay system. A secondary unmannedaerial vehicle (SUAV) relay delivers information from multiplesecondary Internet of things (IoT) devices to a secondary user(SU) under the spectrum sharing with primary users (PUs). Inthe processing of the information transmission of the SUAV relay,a secondary eavesdropper (SE) wiretaps the information transmittedby the UAV relay with imperfect location information. Inorder to confuse the SE, a friendly SUAV jammer is employedto transmit jamming signals to the SE. To prevent the SEwiretapping information as much as possible, we aim to maximizeaverage worst-case secrecy rate of the secondary relay networkby jointly optimizing robust trajectories and power of the SUAVrelay and jammer under the power, trajectories, informationcausality and multiple interference temperature (IT) thresholdconstraints. Thus, we formulate the original problem whichis a challenging non-convex problem. We propose an effectivealgorithm to solve the original problem and attain locally optimalsolution based on the successive convex approximation (SCA)technology and the alternate optimization method. Simulationsare offered to demonstrate that our proposed resource allocationscheme can effectively improve the security performance ofthe SUAV relay network in comparison with other benchmarkschemes.

A REVIEW OF STUDIES ON OCEAN TIDES AND MEAN SEA LEVEL IN CHINA

Guo Hong Fang,Wen Zhen Zheng 한국해안해양공학회 1999 학술강연회 발표논문초록집 Vol.1 No.1

The observation, analysis, prediction and dynamical studies on ocean tides and tidal currents in China in the recent 50 years are reviewed in the present paper. The major achievements and problems are reported. During recent 50 years, many tidal stations have been established and many short-period current observations have been carried out. The confusion in gauge zero existing in historical tidal data is considered as a most serious problem, and long-period current observations are still limited. Methods for analyzing and predicting tides and tidal currents have been developed. Tide and tidal current tables and charts published are sufficient for practical applications. Progresses in theoretical studies have also been achieved, in particular, on the effects of the friction on tides and tidal currents. Numerical modeling has become a popular measure in tidal prediction. Many studies on relative sea level rise have been carried out. Most of investigations indicate that the rising rates are around zero for the northern China coast and in the range of 1-2 ㎜/a for the southern China coast. However, acquisition of more reliable long-term sea level data is still required.

Association Between GSTM1 Polymorphism and Nasopharyngeal Cancer Susceptibility: a Meta-analysis

Sun, Zhen-Feng,Zhang, Jia,Xu, Hong-Ming,Wang, Guo-Liang,Dong, Pin Asian Pacific Journal of Cancer Prevention 2012 Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention Vol.13 No.11

Background/Aims: Glutathione S-transferase M1 (GSTM1) is a multifunctional enzyme that plays a critical role in the detoxification of varieties of carcinogenic metabolites. Many studies have been conducted to investigate the association between GSTM1 polymorphism and nasopharyngeal cancer (NPC) risk, but the findings among those studies are inconsistent. To assess this relationship more precisely, we performed a meta-analysis of all available studies on the subject. Methods: Case-control studies were identified by searching Pubmed, Embase, ISI Web of Science, and Wanfang databases through September 6, 2012. We used the pooled odds ratio (OR) with its corresponding 95% confidence interval (95%CI) to evaluate the association of GSTM1 polymorphism with NPC susceptibility. Subgroup analyses by pathological types, sex and smoking status were performed to further identify the association. Results: Overall, 11 published studies with 1,513 cases and 2,802 controls were finally included into this meta-analysis according to the inclusion criteria. Meta-analysis of total studies showed that the null genotype of GSTM1 was significantly associated with increased risk of NPC, when comparing with the non-null genotype (OR=1.51, 95%CI=1.33-1.72, POR<0.001). The association was still statistically significant in subgroup analysis of patients with nasopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OR=1.73, 95%CI=1.24-2.42, POR=0.001). Males with the null genotype of GSTM1 were more likely to subject to NPC than females. In addition, the association between the null genotype of GSTM1 and NPC risk was strongest in individuals with exposure to smoking. Sensitivity analysis by sequential omission of any individual studies one at a time further demonstrated the significant association. Conclusions: The findings suggest that the null genotype of GSTM1 is a risk factor for NPC, and there is a gene-smoking interaction in this association.

Huang Zhen-guo,Wang Cun-li,Sun Hong-liang,Li Chuan-dong,Gao Bao-xiang,Chen He,Yang Min-xing 대한영상의학회 2021 Korean Journal of Radiology Vol.22 No.7

Objective: To evaluate the feasibility, safety, and effectiveness of CT-guided microcoil localization of solitary pulmonary nodules (SPNs) for guiding video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS). Materials and Methods: Between June 2016 and October 2019, 454 consecutive patients with 501 SPNs who received CTguided microcoil localization before VATS in our institution were enrolled. The diameter of the nodules was 0.93 ± 0.49 cm, and the shortest distance from the nodules to the pleura was 1.41 ± 0.95 cm. The distal end of the microcoil was placed less than 1 cm away from the nodule, and the proximal end was placed outside the visceral pleura. VATS was performed under the guidance of implanted microcoils without the aid of intraoperative fluoroscopy. Results: All 501 nodules were marked with microcoils. The time required for microcoil localization was 12.8 ± 5.2 minutes. Microcoil localization-related complications occurred in 179 cases (39.4%). None of the complications required treatment. A total of 463 nodules were successfully resected under the guidance of implanted microcoils. VATS revealed 38 patients with dislocated microcoils, of which 28 underwent wedge resection (21 cases under the guidance of the bleeding points of pleural puncture, 7 cases through palpation), 5 underwent direct lobectomy, and the remaining 5 underwent a conversion to thoracotomy. In 4 cases, a portion of the microcoil remained in the lung parenchyma. Conclusion: CT-guided microcoil localization of SPNs is safe and reliable. Marking the nodule and pleura simultaneously with microcoils can effectively guide the resection of SPNs using VATS without the aid of intraoperative fluoroscopy.
