Optimization of ammonium nitrate concentration in single-stage continuous cultures of Aspergillus niger with biomass retention

The effect of ammonium nitrate concentration in the citric acid biosynthesis by Aspergillus niger NC-12 in single-stage continuous cultures with biomass retention was investigated. Experiments were carried out in a BIOMER laboratory fermenter with 5 dm³ working volume. At the initial stage of each cultivation, the substrate in the bioreactor contained 1.5 g NH₄NO₃ dm⁻³. After 120 h onwards, the bioreactor was fed continuously at a constant dilution rate of 0.009 h⁻¹. NH₄NO₃ concentration in the feed was varied from one culture to another, ranging between 0.5 g dm⁻³ and 2.5 g dm⁻³. Promising results were obtained when NH₄NO₃ concentration of 1.5 g dm⁻³ was used. The observed concentration of citric acid (c _P) and yield of citric acid with respect to the introduced sucrose (Y _P/S) were 117.88 g dm⁻³ and 78.59 %, respectively. The efficiency coefficient of citric acid biosynthesis (K _ef) was very high, amounting to 83.38.

Copper-Photocatalyzed Hydrosilylation of Alkynes and Alkenes under Continuous Flow

Herein, the photocatalytic hydrosilylation of alkynes and alkenes under continuous flow conditions is described. By using 0.2 mol % of the developed [Cu(dmp)(XantphosTEPD)]PF₆ under blue LEDs irradiation, a large panel of alkenes and alkynes was hydrosilylated in good to excellent yields with a large functional group tolerance. The mechanism of the reaction was studied, and a plausible scenario was suggested.     

A numerical analysis of a class of generalized Boussinesq‐type equations using continuous/discontinuous FEM

An improved class of Boussinesq systems of an arbitrary order using a wave surface elevation and velocity potential formulation is derived. Dissipative effects and wave generation due to a time‐dependent varying seabed are included. Thus, high‐order source functions are considered. For the reduction of the system order and maintenance of some dispersive characteristics of the higher‐order models, an extra O(μ²ⁿ⁺²) term (n ∈ ?) is included in the velocity potential expansion. We introduce a nonlocal continuous/discontinuous Galerkin FEM with inner penalty terms to calculate the numerical solutions of the improved fourth‐order models. The discretization of the spatial variables is made using continuous P₂ Lagrange elements. A predictor‐corrector scheme with an initialization given by an explicit Runge–Kutta method is also used for the time‐variable integration. Moreover, a CFL‐type condition is deduced for the linear problem with a constant bathymetry. To demonstrate the applicability of the model, we considered several test cases. Improved stability is achieved. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

On the Existence Of Consistent Price Systems

We formulate a sufficient condition for the existence of a consistent price system (CPS), which is weaker than the conditional full support condition (CFS). We use the new condition to show the existence of CPSs for certain processes that fail to have the CFS property. In particular this condition gives sufficient conditions, under which a continuous function of a process with CFS admits a CPS, while the CFS property might be lost.     

薄壁件加工系统动态响应分析

薄壁件在铣削加工中容易产生共振或变形，直接影响加工稳定性及加工精度。采用主轴-刀具-工件整体铣削系统连续梁模型，系统研究在动态铣削力作用下，刀具端部与工件端部的动态响应之间的相互影响关系以及对整体系统动态响应影响较大的薄壁件尺寸。结果表明，工件横截面高度对系统共振的影响较为明显，当高度尺寸较小时，工件的低频共振会通过动态铣削力直接反映到刀具端部的振动频响上。工件横截面底边宽度尺寸的增大虽然对共振频率的改变不太明显，但会导致激发出来的刀具共振幅度出现明显降低。研究成果可以为薄壁件铣削加工系统的稳定性控制提供理论基础。

以液体粘滞阻尼器为振动控制外部装置，主桥采用欧拉伯努利梁，通过中国和谐号动车组CRH380AL、日本新干线Shinkansen700和欧洲高速列车HSLMA8三种不同类型的高速列车对比，模拟分析了高速列车作用下桥梁结构共振响应的影响因素，以及粘滞阻尼器的阻尼系数与安装位置对桥梁结构振动响应的减振效果。研究结果表明，（1）合理有效地布置列车荷载轴距，可使桥梁结构发生基频共振的列车时速在运营时速之外，避免了桥梁结构发生较大振动峰值响应，即桥梁结构的基频共振；（2）随着粘滞阻尼器阻尼系数的增大，桥梁的加速度峰值在列车不同时速下均在减少，对桥梁振动有着不同程度的减振效果；（3）通过合理安置液体粘滞阻尼器，可有效降低高速列车作用下桥梁结构的共振响应；（4）随着粘滞阻尼器与主梁的连接点位置逐渐远离支座，粘滞阻尼器的减振效果逐渐明显；（5）随着粘滞阻尼器与桥台的连接点位置逐渐靠近支座，粘滞阻尼器的减振效果略有提升，但不明显。

Copper-Photocatalyzed Borylation of Organic Halides under Batch and Continuous-Flow Conditions

The copper-photocatalyzed borylation of aryl, heteroaryl, vinyl and alkyl halides (I and Br) was reported. The reaction proceeded using a new heteroleptic Cu complex under irradiation with blue LEDs, giving the corresponding boronic-acid esters in good to excellent yields. The reaction was extended to continuous-flow conditions to allow an easy scale-up. The mechanism of the reaction was studied and a mechanism based on a reductive quenching (Cu^I/Cu^I*/Cu⁰) was suggested.
