A new adsorbent based on sterically hindered amine for efficient CO2 capture was prepared. Mesoporoussilicon MCM-41 was modified by sterically hindered amine AMPD (2-amino-2-methyl-1,3-propanediol) in differentAMPD loadings by a facile solid-state self-assembly approach. The physicochemical properties of the MCM-41@AMPDcomposites were analyzed using XRD, BET, FT-IR and SEM, and the composites were investigated for the CO2 captureperformance, including CO2 capture capacity, adsorption selectivity and cycling stability. Characterization analysesshowed that the AMPD active components were successfully incorporated and well dispersed into the mesoporous siliconMCM-41 surfaces. Adsorption results suggest that the modification by the active ingredient AMPD can significantlyimprove the CO2 capture performance. The MCM-41@AMPD material with an AMPD loading of 7mmol∙g1MCM-41 support exhibits a good CO2 adsorption capacity and CO2 adsorption selectivity, and shows excellent cyclingstability. Furthermore, the isosteric heat of CO2 adsorption on the MCM-41@AMPD-7 material was evaluated by theClausius-Clapeyron equation, and the value was 34-78 kJ∙mol1.

The Shulu Sag which is a rifted sag with NNE trend is located in the south of Jizhong Depression, Bohai Bay Basin, northern China. The gentle slope and three troughs are situated in the west and east of the sag, respectively. Both of the lower part of Shasan Member (Es3x) and the lower part of Shayi Member (Es1x) act as source rocks in this sag. Researches on the type, quantity, quality and thermal maturity of the respective organic matter have been conducted using Rock-Eval pyrolysis data. Type II is the dominant kerogen in Es1x of all troughs. However, Type II1 and III is the dominant kerogen in Es3x of Middle-Southern and Northern trough, respectively. TOC (total organic carbon) and pyrolysis S2 (hydrocarbon) values suggest that the Es1x source rocks in Middle-Southern and Northern trough are fair to good and poor to fair generative potential of hydrocarbon, separately. The Es3x source rocks in Middle-Southern and Northern trough possess fair to excellent and poor to fair generative potential of hydrocarbon, individually. Tmax (pyrolysis temperature at maximum S2) values indicate that most of Es3x samples are thermally mature, but all Es1x samples are thermally immature. Under large scale condition, the hydrocarbon secondary migration in the upper part of Shasan Member (Es3s), Shaer Member (Es2) and the upper part of Shayi Member (Es1s) have been simulated using fluid potential model with Arcgis 9.3 software. The simulation results reveal the direction of hydrocarbon secondary migration and the distribution of hydrocarbon migration-accumulation units (HMAUS), and also suggest that the hydrocarbon migration direction is obviously controlled by nose-like structure belts where most of hydrocarbons accumulate. That shows high reliability because they are consistent with the hydrocarbon exploration result in this area. On the basis of integrated analyses of source rocks and hydrocarbon migration direction, the following five areas in the gentle slope are identified to be the preferred hydrocarbon accumulation area: Taijiazhuang area, northern and southern Xicaogu area, as well as northern and southern Leijiazhuang area. It is considerably helpful to reduce the risk in hydrocarbon exploration of Shulu Sag.

Classical monocytes are commonly involved in the innate inflammatory response and are the progenitors of osteoclasts. Excess endogenous glucocorticoids (GCs) can increase the levels of classical monocytes in blood and bone marrow. The role of this cell population in high-dose exogenous GC-induced osteoporosis (GIOP) remains to be elucidated. In this study, GIOP was established in rats and mice by daily methylprednisolone injection, and monocyte subsets were analyzed by flow cytometry. We demonstrated that classical monocytes accumulate in bone marrow during GIOP. Similarly, the monocyte proportion among bone marrow nucleated cells was also increased in patients with steroid treatment history. We sorted classical monocytes and analyzed their transcriptional profile in response to GCs by RNA sequencing. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analysis showed that classical monocytes isolated from GC-treated rats exhibited osteoclast differentiation potential. Deletion of classical monocytes by clodronate liposome treatment prevented GIOP via inhibition of osteoclastogenesis and restoration of CD31HiendomucinHi vessels. Regarding the molecular mechanism, classical monocytes express high levels of glucocorticoid receptors. In vitro treatment with GCs increased both the percentage and absolute number of monocytes and promoted their proliferation. In summary, classical monocytes mediated GC-induced bone loss and are a potential target for therapeutic intervention in GIOP treatment.

Dynamics, Stability, and Cooperative Formation Control of Magnetic Sail-Based Planetary Displaced Orbits

Lei Zhao,Changqing Yuan,Ling Gao,Chengxi Zhang 한국항공우주학회 2023 International Journal of Aeronautical and Space Sc Vol.24 No.2

The aim of this paper is to analyze dynamic characteristics and stability of magnetic sail-based planetary displaced orbits, and the feasibility of using a magnetic sail as an advanced propellantless control technology for formation flying around elliptic planetary displaced orbits (EPDOs). The thrust can be obtained from the momentum exchange between solar wind and an artificial magnetic field. First, the requirements of a magnetic sail for generating and maintaining a planetary circular displaced orbit is discussed including the value of attitude angles and characteristic acceleration. Based on different orbital periods, the circular displaced orbits are divided into three types and their linear stability is analyzed. For elliptical orbits, the conditions required to maintain an EPDO are investigated and the dynamical models of magnetic sail formation system are established. A finite time coordinated control algorithms relying on the protocols formulated on an undirected communication graph is proposed to achieve synchronized formation tracking rapidly while enhancing the robustness of formation system due to information interaction between spacecraft. Several numerical simulations are conducted to demonstrate that spacecraft formation can be effectively controlled by the proposed propellantless propulsion system.

Correlation Based Analysis of Parameter Change Propagation in Variant Product Design

Junzhi Shang,Bo Yang,Ning Ma,Changqing Gao 한국정밀공학회 2021 International Journal of Precision Engineering and Vol.22 No.4

Analysis of parameter change propagation is essential to ensure the consistency of the product’s integrated content as well as to capture the contextual impacts of a change proposal in variant product design. In this regard, a correlation-based approach is presented in this paper. The propagation of parameter change from one component to another in a product as well as from one key structure to another inside a component are studied. Firstly, a data fl ow model for change propagation as well as the basic units in parameter change propagation is proposed to illustrate the hierarchy and logical correlations between parameters. Then, change propagation network from the perspective of assembly is constructed by introducing “and” operation into the process. Change propagation coefficient is used to describe the change cost, based on which the optimal propagation path between components is selected. Thirdly, matrices are used to describe the correlation between parameters in different components. By introducing inner product into those matrices, change propagation path between parameters in different components can be obtained. Fourthly, the changed components are taken as the studied objects. Parametric correlation graph as well as quantitative expressing method is used to illustrate the parameter linkage inside the components. A searching method for parameter change propagation path inside components based on component modeling process is developed. Finally, the effectiveness of this method is verified by an example of an injection molding machine. The result confirms that our method can provide accurate estimation for the transfer process of the initial parametric change from macro-parameter changes in product to micro-parameter changes in components.
