Ji-Peng Dong,Jing-Guang Sun,Yong Guo,Shen-Min Song 제어·로봇·시스템학회 2018 International Journal of Control, Automation, and Vol.16 No.4

In order to meet the needs of high-precision guidance for missile-guided maneuvering targets in the presence of towed bait interference, this paper proposes a new guidance strategy based on heading angle method and parallel approaching method. Its main idea: a suitable angle is determined by heading angle method which of the missile trajectory is above that of the towing bait. Meanwhile, the accurate interception of missiles to targets is guaranteed by parallel approaching method. Firstly, system models of missile and target with towed decoy are established. Then, considering unknown bounded system disturbances, a controller is given based on sliding mode, back-stepping method. Furthermore, to solve the input saturation problem, an anti-saturation controller is given using adaptive and back-stepping sliding mode methods. Finally, strict proofs of the two controllers are given using Lyapunov stability theory, and simulations are carried out to verify the effectiveness of the two controllers.

Peng, Wang,Kim, Il-kyu,Cho, Hyun-young,Seo, Ji-Hoon,Lee, Dong-Hwan,Jang, Jun-Min,Park, Seung-Hoon Korean Association of Maxillofacial Plastic and Re 2016 Maxillofacial Plastic Reconstructive Surgery Vol.38 No.-

Background: The association of biomaterial combined with repair factor-like platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has prospective values. Bovine-derived xenograft has been identified as an osteoconductive and biocompatible grafting material that provides osseointegration ability. PRP has become a valuable adjunctive agent to promote healing in a lot of dental and oral surgery procedures. However, there are controversies with respect to the regenerative capacity of PRP and the real benefits of its use in bone grafts. The purpose of this study was to assess the influence of PRP combined with xenograft for the repair of peri-implant bone defects. Methods: Twelve rabbits were used in this study, and the experimental surgery with implant installation was performed simultaneously. Autologous PRP was prepared before the surgical procedure. An intrabony defect (7.0 mm in diameter and 3.0 mm deep) was created in the tibia of each rabbit; then, 24 titanium dental implants (3.0 mm in diameter and 8.5 mm long) were inserted into these osteotomy sites. Thus, a standardized gap (4.0 mm) was established between the surrounding bony walls and the implant surface. The gaps were treated with either xenograft alone (control group) or xenograft combined with PRP (experimental group). After healing for 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 weeks, the rabbits were sacrificed with an overdose of KCl solution. Two rabbits were killed at each time, and the samples including dental implants and surrounding bone were collected and processed for histological analysis. Results: More newly formed bone and a better bone healing process were observed in control group. The histomorphometric analysis revealed that the mean percentage of bone-to-implant contact in the control group was significantly higher than that of the experimental group (25.23 vs. 8.16 %; P < 0.05, independent-simple t test, analysis of variance [ANOVA]). Conclusions: The results indicate that in the addition of PRP to bovine-derived xenograft in the repair of bone defects around the implant, PRP may delay peri-implant bone healing.

Ji, Dong,Lu, Zhong-Tang,Li, Yao-Qing,Liang, Zhe-Yong,Zhang, Peng-Fei,Li, Chao,Zhang, Jun-Li,Zheng, Xin,Yao, Ying-Min Asian Pacific Journal of Cancer Prevention 2014 Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention Vol.15 No.2

Objective: To validate the relationship between MACC1 and 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose 2, 6 bisphosphatase (PFKFB2) expression as well as its clinicopathological features and prognostic significance in hepatocellular carcinoma. Methods: By using immunohistochemistry, we investigated the MACC1 and PFKFB2 protein expression in 60 pairs of hepatocellular carcinoma and corresponding non-tumor tissues. Using the Mann-Whitney U test, the Chi-square test, Kaplan-Meier survival analysis, Cox proportional hazard regression analysis and Spearman analysis, we studied the relationship between MACC1 and PFKFB2 protein expression and postoperative overall survival (OS) of the HCC patients. Results: MACC1 and PFKFB2 positive staining rates were significantly higher in hepatocellular carcinoma than in the corresponding nontumor tissues (P=0.012 and 0.04, respectively). The clinicopathological features evaluation revealed that positive expression of MACC1 was associated with a high Edmondson classification (P=0.007) and advanced TNM stage (P=0.027). Similar findings were evident for PFKFB2 expression (P=0.002 and P=0.027). MACC1 and PFKFB2 positive expression was associated with a lower OS rate (P=0.004 and 0.03, respectively). Kaplan-Meier survival and Cox proportional hazard regression analyses revealed MACC1 positive expression to be a prognostic factor for postoperative OS, but PFKFB was not. Conclusion: Highly expressed MACC1 and PFKFB2 protein were associated with TNM stage, Edmondson-Steier classification and overall survival. MACC1 may affect tumor metabolism partly through expression and phophorylation of PFKFB2.

Vortex-induced vibration of a long flexible cylinder in uniform cross-flow

Ji, Chunning,Peng, Ziteng,Alam, Md. Mahbub,Chen, Weilin,Xu, Dong Techno-Press 2018 Wind and Structures, An International Journal (WAS Vol.26 No.5

Numerical simulations are performed of a long flexible cylinder undergoing vortex-induced vibration at a Reynolds number of 500. The cylinder is pinned at both ends, having an aspect ratio of 100 (cylinder length to cylinder diameter) and a mass ratio of 4.2 (structural mass to displaced fluid mass). Temporal and spatial information on the cross-flow (CF) and in-line (IL) vibrations is extracted. High modal vibrations up to the $6^{th}$ in the CF direction and the $11^{th}$ in the IL direction are observed. Both the CF and IL vibrations feature a multi-mode mixed pattern. Mode competition is observed. The $2^{nd}$ mode with a low frequency dominates the IL vibration and its existence is attributed to a wave group propagating back and forth along the span. Distributions of fluid force coefficients are correlated to those of the CF and IL vibrations along the span. Histograms of the x'-y motion phase difference are evaluated from the total simulation time and a complete vibration cycle representing the standing or travelling wave pattern. Correlations between the phase difference and the vibrations are discussed. Vortex structures behind the cylinder show an interwoven near-wake pattern when the standing wave pattern dominates, but an oblique near-wake pattern when the travelling wave pattern prevails.

The biodegradation of straw by cellulosedegrading strains plays an important role in the disposal of agricultural waste. In this study, a Penicillium sp. strain JiTF01 that could degrade cellulose was isolated at the low temperature (10oC), and its fermentation conditions were optimized by response surface method. Strain JiTF01 was applied to degrade rice straw at 10oC. It was found that the straw degradation ratio could reach to 46.53% on the 25th day of culture with the enzyme activity of 44.30 U/mL under optimized fermentation conditions. In addition, given that strain JiTF01 showed excellent acid resistance and the cellulase produced by strain JiTF01 exhibited higher enzymatic activity and stability under acidic conditions, the uninterrupted integration process of acid pretreatment and acid fermentation of straw was then performed. The results showed that the degradation ratio of 53.61% was observed after 25 days of the fermentation at pH 3, which increased by 7.08% than that under optimized conditions. Besides, the effect of straw fermentation broth on the growth of rice seed was also investigated, and the 10-5 and 10-6 diluted fermentation broth was found that could significantly promote the growth of rice seedlings and enhance the germination rate of rice seeds under the salt stress of 100 and 200 mmol/L. The conclusions found in this article might have important implications for straw recycling in cold regions.

The degradation of TBP has become a stumbling block to the industrial continuous production of lithiumchloride extraction from brines with high Mg/Li ratio by solvent extraction. To develop a more stable andmore efficient extraction system, a novel amide system, containing newly synthesized extractant N,N-bis(2-ethylhexyl)-2-methoxyacetamide (NBEHMOA), FeCl3 6H2O and sulfonated kerosene, was proposed inthis work. Compared with TBP and N523, NBEHMOA extracted Li+ and H+ in the sequence of TBP ˃NBEHMOA ˃ N523 and N523 ˃ TBP ˃ NBEHMOA respectively. The solution containing 5.5 mol/L LiCland 0.5 mol/L HCl was used as the eluent in the scrubbing process. A Li+ extraction efficiency of 96.7%and 22.31 g/L Li+ in the stripping solution were achieved by the whole process with counter-currenttwelve stages. The extraction mechanism investigated via FT-IR spectroscopy illustrated that the metalions Fe3+ and Li+ were mainly coordinated by the carbonyl C = O in NBEHMOA. This novel amide systemcan successfully achieve the cascade extraction effect for lithium, Li/Mg separation and avoid the generationof phase interface objects through counter-current extraction of lithium from brine at a lower acidity. This work provided a novel extraction system to recover lithium from the higher magnesium/lithiumratio brines.

Preparation of layered double hydroxides intercalated by tartaric acid anion and its application in boron adsorption

Lianmin Ji,Liang Cai,Yuze zhang,Xiaowu Peng,Dong Shi,Lijuan Li 한국공업화학회 2023 Journal of Industrial and Engineering Chemistry Vol.123 No.-

Based on the exchangeability of anions between the layers of magnesium-based LDHs, LDHs intercalatedby tartaric acid anion (TA-LDH) was prepared by co-precipitation method to adsorb boron, and confirmedby XRD and FT-IR that TA had successfully entered the interlayer of LDH. The adsorption kinetics showedthat the adsorption efficiency of B was mainly controlled by the chemisorption mechanism. The thermodynamicsrevealed that the relationship between the equilibrium concentration of B in solution and theadsorption capacity of TA-LDH for B was consistent with the Freundlich model. Cl or Li+ in solution hadlittle effect on the adsorption of B by TA-LDH, while SO4 2 had a great effect on that compared with NO3-LDH. Boron adsorption was accomplished through the interaction between the hydroxyl of TA anion inthe interlayer and that of B(OH)3 and B(OH)4. The elution efficiency of TA-LDH was greater than 70% withammonium chloride used as the eluent. While TA-LDH still maintained a good adsorption capacity after 5cycles, and the solubility loss efficiencies of Mg2+ in a single adsorption and elution were 1.5% and 5.4%,respectively. Our study can provide a new idea and method for the development and utilization of magnesiumresources.

Xu Liu,Ji Zhou Wu,Rui Zhan,Wei Guang Wang,Xue Du,Yan Li,Peng Zhang,Jian Xin Pu,Han Dong Sun 대한약학회 2012 Archives of Pharmacal Research Vol.35 No.12

Three rare and new 11,20-epoxy-ent-kaurane diterpenoids, named jianshirubesins D-F (1-3), along with one known analogue (4), were isolated from the aerial parts of Isodon rubescens. Their structures were established by analysis of spectroscopic data. Found in the MTT assay to evaluate the cytotoxicity of compounds 1, 2, and 4, only 1 could selectively inhibit certain cell lines from proliferating. In addition, a simple structure-activity relationship discussion might suggest a new bioactive moiety, different from the α,β-unsaturated ketone group.
