Bao-Chun Li,Yuan-Yuan Fu,Fu-Hu Liu,Li-Li Wang 한국물리학회 2012 THE JOURNAL OF THE KOREAN PHYSICAL SOCIETY Vol.60 No.7

We investigate the dependence of the elliptic flow v2 on the transverse momentum PT for charged and strange hadrons produced in Cu-Cu collisions at high energy by using a multi-source ideal gas model. A detailed comparison with the experimental results from Cu-Cu collisions at p sNN = 62.4 GeV and 200 GeV, measured by the STAR collaboration, is discussed. Over wider range of PT , the experimental results v2(PT ) are well described by this model.

K9 glass is a material with promising properties that make it attractive for optical devices. Ion implantation is a powerful technique to form waveguides with controllable depth and refractive index profile. In this work, optical planar waveguide structures were fabricated in K9 glasses by using 6.0-MeV C3+-ion implantation with a fluence of 1.0 × 1015 ions/cm2. The effective refractive indices of the guided modes were measured by using a prism-coupling system. The refractive index change in the ion-irradiated region was simulated by using the intensity calculation method. The modal intensity profile of the waveguide was calculated and measured by using the finite difference beam propagation method and the end-face coupling technique, respectively. The transmission spectra before and after the implantation showed that the main absorption band was not influenced by the low fluence dopants. The optical properties of the carbon-implanted K9 glass waveguides show promise for use as integrated photonic devices.

A new method of predicting hotspot stresses for longitudinal attachments with reduced element sensitivities

Li Chun Bao,정준모 대한조선학회 2021 International Journal of Naval Architecture and Oc Vol.13 No.1

For the complicated structural details in ships and offshore structures, the traditional hotspot stress approaches are known to be sensitive to the element variables of element topologies, sizes, and integration schemes. This motivated to develop a new approach for predicting reasonable hotspot stresses, which is less sensitive to the element variables and easy to be implemented the real marine structures. The three-point bending tests were conducted for the longitudinal attachments with the round and rectangular weld toes. The tests were reproduced in the numerical simulations using the solid and shell element models, and the simulation technique was validated by comparing the experimental stresses with the simulated ones. This paper considered three hotspot stress approaches: the ESM method based on surface stress extrapolation, the Dong's method based on nodal forces along a weld toe, and the proposed method based on nodal forces perpendicular to an imaginary vertical plane at a weld toe. In order to study the element sensitivities of each method, 16 solid element models and 8 shell element models were generated under the bending and tension loads, respectively. The element sensitivity was analyzed in terms of Stress Concentration Factors (SCFs) in viewpoints of two statistical quantities of mean and bias with respect to the reference SCFs. The average SCFs predicted by the proposed method were remarkably in good agreement with the reference SCFs based on the experiments and the ship rules. Negligibly small Coefficients of Variation (CVs) of the SCFs, which is measure of statistical bias, were drawn by the proposed method.

Xu, Wen-Zheng,Li, Chun Bao,Choung, Joonmo,Lee, Jae-Myung Elsevier Applied Science 2017 Advances in engineering software Vol.112 No.-

<P><B>Abstract</B></P> <P>Corrosion defects occur very often on the internal and external surfaces of pipelines, which may result in a serious threat to the integrity of the pipelines. Numerous studies investigated failure behavior of corroded pipelines with single corrosion defects. However, few studies focus on interacting corrosion defects. Interacting defects are defined as defects with certain proximity that interact to reduce the overall strength of a pipeline. In the present study, the failure behavior of pipelines with interacting corrosion defects was studied using a finite element method, and then a solution was proposed to predict burst pressure using an artificial neural network. The solution was validated by experimental results in previous studies and compared with other existing assessment solutions to prove its applicability and efficiency.</P> <P><B>Highlights</B></P> <P> <UL> <LI> The failure behavior of pipelines with interacting corrosion defects was studied using FE method. </LI> <LI> A series of models were created for the sensitive study of the various parameters. </LI> <LI> A solution was proposed to predict burst pressure using an artificial neural network (ANN). </LI> <LI> The solution was validated by comparing with experimental results and existing codes. </LI> </UL> </P>

Li, Wen-Jing,Wang, Yong,Gong, Yu,Tu, Chao,Feng, Tong-Bao,Qi, Chun-Jian Asian Pacific Journal of Cancer Prevention 2015 Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention Vol.16 No.17

Several studies reported there was a polymorphism (rs531564 C > G) in miR-124 gene. To investigate the MiR-124 rs531564 polymorphism and cancer risk. We conducted a literature search of the Medline, Embase and Wangfang Medicine databases to identify all relevant studies for this meta-analysis. We determined that the miR-124 rs531564 polymorphism was significantly associated with decreased risks of cancers in the allelic model (G vs C, OR=0.71, 95% CI=0.53-0.94, P=0.02), homozygote model (GG vs CC, OR=0.42, 95% CI=0.26-0.66, P=0.0002), dominant model (GG/GC vs CC, OR=0.71, 95% CI=0.51-0.98, P=0.04) and recessive model (GG vs GC/CC, OR=0.43, 95% CI=0.27-0.69, P=0.0004). In an analysis stratified by cervical cancer group, significant associations were observed in the allelic model (G vs C, OR=0.46, 95% CI=0.32-0.66, P<0.0001), and dominant model (GG/GC vs CC, OR=0.45, 95% CI=0.3-0.66, P<0.0001). Subgroup analysis also revealed a decreased risk for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma in the homozygote model (GG vs CC, OR=0.45, 95% CI=0.27-0.75, P=0.002) and recessive model (GG vs GC/CC, OR=0.46, 95% CI=0.28-0.75, P=0.002). This meta-analysis suggests that the miR-124 rs531564 C > G polymorphism is an important risk factor for cancers among the Chinese population.

Bao-Lin Li,Lin-Ling Jiang,Hui-Chun Wang,Zhan-Jun Yang,Xi-Quan Zhang,Hong-Mei Gu,Xian-Hua Tian 대한화학회 2009 Bulletin of the Korean Chemical Society Vol.30 No.7

Two new flavone glycosides, giraldiin A and B, together with three known compounds, annulatin, myricetin 3-O-α-L-rhamnopyranoside and gallic acid, were isolated from the ethanol extract of the root of Pteroxygonum giraldii Damm. et Diels. The structures of giraldiin A and B are designated as 3'-(α-L-arabinopyranosyloxy)-4',5,5',7-tetrahydroxy-3-methoxyflavone and 4'-(β-D-glucopyranosyloxy)-5,5',7-trihydroxy-2',3-dimethoxyflavone, respectively,on the basis of detailed spectroscopic analyses. The free radical scavenging activity of giraldiin A was evaluated by decolouring spectrophotometry of pentamethine cyanine dye (Cy5) with Fe2+-H2O2 Fenton radical generating system. The results indicated the hydroxyl free radical scavenging activity of giraldiin A (ED50 = 23.7 nmol/mL) is higher than that of some known antioxidants such as rutin, puerarin, daidzein and 2,6-di-tertbutyl-4-methylphenol.

Coupling Model of Moisture-heat-stress Fields of Subgrade in Seasonal Frozen Soil Regions to Freeze-thaw Cycles

( Xiaoning Li ),( Si-xiang Ling ),( Chun-wei Sun ),( Bao-long Zhu ),( Ming-uuan Sun ) 대한지질공학회 2019 대한지질공학회 학술발표회논문집 Vol.2019 No.2

This work addresses the freeze-thaw cycles of subgrade in seasonal permafrost region western Sichuan plateau. The mechanism of freeze-thaw cycle effect of seasonal frozen subgrade under freeze-thaw cycle is explained. The analysis results show that the variation tendency of the simulated results are in good agreement with that of the field measured results. The freezing depth of the slope foot is smaller than that of the natural ground and is larger than that of the roadbed, which is affected by the freeze-thaw cycle effect, the freezing depth of the roadbed is more easily and the freezing depth is further increased. During the freezing period, a freezing front quickly forms at the natural ground surface with the water below migrates to it. The variation of the saturation at the maximum freezing depth is affected not only by the ambient temperature of the surface boundary during the melting period, but also by the continuous downward flow of cold energy, which makes the ambient temperature down to the freezing temperature, resulting in a short period of freezing, and in consequence, the saturation decreases briefly. Under the same circumstances, the closer the freezing front is to the underground water level, the smaller the frost heave and thawing settlement rate are. The water-thermal coupling effect has a further affect on the frost heaving rate.

Mesoporous Carbon as a Metal-Free Catalyst for the Reduction of Nitroaromatics with Hydrazine Hydrate

Hui-Chun Wang,Bao-Lin Li,Yan-Jun Zheng,Wen-Ying Wang 대한화학회 2012 Bulletin of the Korean Chemical Society Vol.33 No.9

Mesoporous carbons with tailored pore size were prepared by using sucrose as the carbon source and silicas as the templates. The silica templates were obtained from a hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin-silica hybrids using ammonium perchlorate oxidation at different temperatures to remove the organic matter. The structures and surface chemistry properties of these carbon materials were characterized by N2 adsorption, TEM, SEM and FTIR measurements. The catalytic performances of these carbon materials were investigated through the reduction of nitroaromatic using hydrazine hydrate as the reducing agent. Compared with other carbon materials, such as active carbon, and carbon materials from the silica templates obtained by using calcination to remove the organic matter, these carbon materials exhibited much higher catalytic activity, no obvious deactivation was observed after recycling the catalyst four times. Higher surface area and pore volume, and the presence of abundant surface oxygen-containing functional groups, which originate from the special preparation process of carbon material, are likely responsible for the high catalytic property of these mesoporous carbon materials.
