Magnetic-graphene nanosheets have been synthesized via a simple effective chemical precipitation method followed by heat treatment. The composite nanosheets are super paramagnetic at room temperature and can be separated by an external magnetic field. The prepared magnetic-graphene nanosheets were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Raman spectroscopy, and BET surface area analysis. The results demonstrated the successful attachment of iron oxide nanoparticles to graphene nanosheets. It was found that the attached nanoparticles were mainly $Fe_3O_4$. The magnetic-graphene nanosheets showed near complete methyl orange removal within 10 mintues and would be practically usable for methyl orange separation from water.

Blind Signal Separation Method Based Machining Error Decomposition

Fa-Ping Zhang,Di Wu,Yan Yan,Shahid Ikramullah Butt 한국정밀공학회 2018 International Journal of Precision Engineering and Vol.19 No.2

In view of the current error separation method cannot successfully separate the dissimilar systematic error components from the whole surface machining data, a method for machining errors decomposition based on blind signal separation is proposed which can distinguish those dissimilar systematic error components. Firstly, the error transfer model to describe the errors synthesizing from the single error component caused by corresponding individual error source to the synthesis machining surface error is conducted. To determine the number of the systematic error components, the principal component analysis (PCA) method is used. Then according to the theory of blind source separation, negative entropy based fixed point algorithm is proposed to fulfill the machining error components separation, which can realize the separation of the systematic error components even in close frequency scale. Finally, a shaft surface finish turning data and a flat surface milling data are used as examples to verify the proposed method. The result shows that the proposed error separation method can effectively realize the machining error separation in close frequency scale.

제품의 포용적 디자인을 위한 Exclusion Calculation 평가 방법의 효용성 연구: 전기다리미 평가를 사례 연구로

장지파(Ji-Fa Zhang),고정욱(Jung-Wook Go) 한국콘텐츠학회 2020 한국콘텐츠학회논문지 Vol.20 No.4

제품 디자인개발 과정에서 사용성과 포용성을 확보하는 것은 매우 중요하다. 이를 위한 제품의 사용성과 포용성 평가방법으로 케임브리지 대학 엔지니어링 디자인 센터의 교수인 Simon Keates와 P. John Clarkson에 의해 Exclusion Calculation이 개발된 바 있다. 그러나 실제 제품의 평가에서 Exclusion Calculation의 효용성에 대한 연구가 부족하다. 이에 본 연구는 Exclusion Calculation을 사용하여 전기다리미을 평가하는 실험을 사례 연구로 진행하여 결과의 유용성, 정확성 및 평가항목의 직관성 3가지 측면에서 장단점을 평가하여 Exclusion Calculation의 효용성을 고찰하였다. 실험 연구에서, 11명의 디자이너가 Exclusion Calculation으로 제품을 평가한 후 Exclusion Calculation중 14개 평가항목의 직관성을 평가했다. 제품 평가 결과에 따라 Exclusion Calculation 평가 결과의 유용성을 판단하고, 표준편차를 이용하여 Exclusion Calculation 평가 결과의 정확성을 분석했다. 본 연구결과 첫째, Exclusion Calculation의 평가결과는 디자이너가 제품의 물리적 특징과 관련된 사용성 문제 및 문제의 보편성을 발견하도록 도울 수 있지만, 제품 사용 논리성 측면의 문제를 발견할 수는 없다. 둘째, Exclusion Calculation 평가 척도 기준이 모호하기 때문에 평가 결과의 정확성이 낮다. 평가항목은 전체적으로 평가 판단의 난이도가 낮지만, 인지능력과 관련된 평가항목은 직관성이 약하다는 것을 알 수 있었다. It is very important to ensure usability and inclusion in product design and development. Exclusion Calculation, developed by Simon Keates and P. John Clarkson at Cambridge Universitys Engineering Design Center, assesses the usability and inclusiveness of the product. In context of inadequate research on effectiveness of Exclusion Calculation, this study carried out the experimental evaluation of electric iron and discussed the effectiveness of the Exclusion Calculation from usefulness, accuracy of its evaluation results and the intuitiveness of the evaluation items. 11 designers used Exclusion Calculation in product evaluation and estimated the intuitiveness of 14 evaluation items in Exclusion Calculation by questionnaire. Then usefulness of the evaluation results was discussed and the accuracy of the evaluation results was analyzed by standard deviation. From the evaluation results, the research found that Exclusion Calculation could help designers identify the usability problems and the generality of usability problems related to the physical characteristics of the products, but it can not find the problems from logical aspect of using. In addition, the ambiguity of the evaluation scale in Exclusion Calculation leads to lower accuracy of the evaluation results. Most of evaluation items in Exclusion Calculation were easy to be identified and judged, while evaluation items related to cognitive abilities are less intuitive.

Synthesis of Chiral Bisacylphosphine Oxides and Their Application as Initiators in Helix-Sense-Selective Photopolymerization

Jia-An Zhang,Nian-Fa Yang,Li-Wen Yang,Shi Wu,Ye-Hui Chen,Jin Zhang 한국고분자학회 2013 Macromolecular Research Vol.21 No.6

Three new chiral bisacylphosphine oxides, (-)-bis(menthylformyl)phenylphosphine oxide (1a), (+)-bis(2,4,6-trimethylbenzoyl)menthylphosphine oxide (2a), and (-)-bis(menthylformyl)menthylphosphine oxide (3a),were synthesized using menthol as a chiral source. The synthesized new chiral bisacylphosphine oxides were used as photoinitiators for the polymerization of 1-phenyldibenzosuberyl methacrylate (PDBSMA). The polymerization initiated by chiral bisacylphosphine oxides under UV light irradiation is helix-sense-selective. Among the three prepared chiral bisacylphosphine oxides, the helix-sense-selectivity of bis(menthylformyl)menthylphosphine oxide is highest. The highest specific rotation of poly(1-phenyldibenzosuberyl methacrylate) at 365 nm is +416. The feed molar ratio of monomer to chiral bisacylphosphine oxide and the polymerization temperature have an influence on the helix-sense-selectivity. The lower the feed molar ratio of monomer to chiral bisacylphosphine oxide, the better the helix-sense-selectivity is. The increase of polymerization temperature is propitious to increase the helix-senseselectivity of the photopolymerization.

Chong Zhi Zhang,Hai Zhou Sun,Sheng Li Li,Dan Sang,Chun Hua Zhang,Lu Jin,Marco Antonini,Cun Fa Zhao 아세아·태평양축산학회 2019 Animal Bioscience Vol.32 No.4

Objective: This study investigated the effects of photoperiod on nutrient digestibility, hair follicle (HF) activity and cashmere quality in Inner Mongolia white cashmere goats. Methods: Twenty-four female (non-pregnant) Inner Mongolia white cashmere goats aged 1 to 1.5 years old with similar live weights (mean, 20.36±2.63 kg) were randomly allocated into two groups: a natural daily photoperiod group (NDPP group:10 to 16 h light, n = 12) and a short daily photoperiod group (SDPP group: 7 h light:17 h dark, n = 12). All the goats were housed in individual pens and fed the same diets from May 15 to October 15, 2015. The digestibility of crude protein (CP), dry matter (DM), and neutral detergent fiber (NDF) were measured in different months, along with secondary hair follicle (SHF) activity, concentration of melatonin (MEL), and cashmere quality. Results: Although there was no significant difference in the live weights of goats between the SDPP and NDPP groups (p>0.05), the CP digestibility of goats in the SDPP group was significantly increased compared to the NDPP group in July, September, and October (p<0.05). For the DM and NDF digestibility of goats, a significant increase (p<0.05) was found during in September in the SDPP group. Furthermore, compared to the NDPP group, the SHF activity in July, the MEL concentration in July, and the cashmere fiber length and fiber weight in October were significantly increased in the SDPP group (p<0.05). Conclusion: The cashmere production of Inner Mongolia white cashmere goats was increased without obvious deleterious effects on the cashmere fibers in the SDPP group (metabolizable energy, 8.34 MJ/kg; CP, 11.16%; short daily photoperiod, 7 h light:17 h dark).

Fast Thresholding Based on Improved Minimum Cross Entropy

Yong-Liang Zhang,Wen Zhang,Gang Xiao,Jia-Fa Mao,Shan-Shan Huang,Xiao-Wei Zheng 제어로봇시스템학회 2012 제어로봇시스템학회 국제학술대회 논문집 Vol.2012 No.10

Image segmentation is an important and classic problem in image processing and computer vision. Thresholding is applied to many fields, because of its less computation and stable performance. The key of thresholding method is to determine the adaptive threshold. In order to segment biological image effectively, a new adaptive thresholding method is proposed. First, two dimension minimum entropy is computed based on gray-gradient co-occurrence matrix; and then the genetic algorithm is applied to encode the two-dimension threshold vector; Finally, the optimum threshold is calculated based on fitness function and uniformity measurement(UM). Experimental results show that this method has three advantages: 1) improve computational efficiency so that it can run in real time; 2) retain more object and edge information so that it can meet the practical requirement; 3) robust to the uneven distribution of light.

Influence of stiffeners on the performance of blind-bolt end-plate connections to CFST columns

Fa-xing Ding,Zhi-cheng Pan,Peng Liu,Shi-jian Huang,Liang Luo,Tao Zhang 국제구조공학회 2020 Steel and Composite Structures, An International J Vol.36 No.4

The paper aims to investigate the mechanical mechanism and seismic effect of stiffeners in blind bolt endplate connection to CFST column. A precise 3D finite element model with considering the cyclic properties of concrete and steel materials was established, and the efficiency was validated through monotonic and cyclic test data. The deforming pattern and the seismic performance of the unstiffened and stiffened blind bolt endplate connections were investigated. Then a parametric analysis was conducted to analyze the contribution of stiffeners and the joint working behaviors with endplate under cyclic load. The joint stiffness classifications were compared and a supplement stiffness classification method was proposed, and the energy dissipation ability of different class connections were compared and discussed. Results indicated that the main deformation pattern of unstiffened blind bolt endplate connections was the local bending of end plate. The vertical stiffeners can effectively alleviate the local bending deformation of end plate. And influence of stiffeners in thin endplate and thick endplate was different. Based on the stiffness of external diaphragm welded connection, a more detailed rigidity classification was proposed which included the pin, semi-rigid, quasi-rigid and rigid connection. Beam was the main energy dissipation source for rigid connection. For the semi-rigid and quasi-rigid connection, the extended endplate, stiffeners and steel beam would all participate in the energy dissipation.
