Some results on fractionaln-factor-critical graphs

A simple graphG is said to be fractionaln-factor-critical if after deleting anyn vertices the remaining subgraph still has a fractional perfect matching. For fractionaln-factor-criticality, in this paper, one necessary and sufficient condition, and three sufficient conditions related to maximum matching, complete closure are given.     

Oscillation of certain partial difference equations

In this paper we consider a class of nonlinear delay partial difference equations and a class of linear delay partial difference equations with variable coefficients, which may change sign. We obtain oscillation criteria for these equations. There are no results for the oscillation of these equations up to now.     

Plutonium concentration and <Superscript>240</Superscript>Pu/<Superscript>239</Superscript>Pu isotopic ratio in the surface soils from the Jiuquan region in northwestern China

Surface soil samples collected in the Jiuquan region in the downwind area of the Chinese nuclear test site (CNTs) were analyzed for Pu isotopes. The ^239+240Pu activities ranged from 0.025 ± 0.009 to 0.89 ± 0.16 mBq g^?1, varying significantly with different sampling sites. The Dunhuang city that is located in the southwestern part of the Jiuquan region received the heaviest Pu deposition (^239+240Pu activities, 0.23–0.89 mBq g^?1). Most of the ²⁴⁰Pu/²³⁹Pu isotopic ratios were similar with that of the global fallout. However, the low values (0.080–0.147) observed in three sampling sites further supported the finding of Pu originated from CNTs in that region.     

改进的Faster-RCNN算法在聚乙烯管接头内部缺陷检测中的应用

超声相控阵技术是目前聚乙烯管道热熔接头内部缺陷检测的一种主流方法。提出了基于注意力机制的改进Faster-RCNN目标检测网络用于超声相控阵D扫图聚乙烯管接头内部缺陷检测。针对聚乙烯管道热熔接头内部超声相控阵D扫图小缺陷较多、特征信息容易丢失的问题,将残差网络(ResNet50)与特征金字塔网络(FPN)相结合作为骨干网络,并引入卷积注意力模块(CBAM)自适应细化特征。将SSD网络框架和Faster-RCNN网络框架用于模型训练和测试,使用VGG16、ResNet50、ResNet50+FPN、ACBM+ResNet50+FPN作为骨干网络依次对超声相控阵聚乙烯管道热熔对接接头内部缺陷样本进行训练对比。结果表明,改进的Faster-RCNN网络模型在聚乙烯管接头内部缺陷检测和分类方面有明显改进,对小缺陷的检测性能有了显著的提高。     

Monosaccharide compositional analysis of marine polysaccharides by hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry

A simple and sensitive method was developed using hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry for determination of monosaccharides liberated from marine polysaccharides by acidic hydrolysis. Optimal separation of diastereomeric monosaccharides including hexoses, pentoses, and deoxyhexoses was achieved using an aminopropyl bonded column with mobile phase containing ternary solvents (acetonitrile/methanol/water) in conjunction with MS/MS in SRM mode. Mechanisms for fragmentation of deprotonated monosaccharides with regard to cross-ring cleavage were proposed. Matrix effects from coeluting interferences were observed and isotopic-labeled internal standard was used to compensate for the signal suppression. The method demonstrated excellent instrumental limits of detection (LOD), ranging from 0.7 to 4.2 pg. Method LODs range from 0.9 to 5.1 nM. The proposed method was applied to the analysis of polysaccharides in seawater collected from the open leads of the central Arctic Ocean in the summer of 2008.     

Phase transition in polyamide‐66/montmorillonite nanocomposites on annealing

The crystalline‐phase transition in polyamide‐66/montmorillonite nanocomposites before melting was investigated by in situ X‐ray diffraction and is reported for the first time in this work. The phase‐transition temperature in the nanocomposites was 170 °C, 20 °C lower than that in polyamide‐66. The lower phase‐transition temperature of the nanocomposites could be attributed to the γ‐phase‐favorable environment caused by silicate layers. Meanwhile, the addition of silicate layers changed the crystal structure of the polyamide‐66 matrix and influenced the phase‐transition behavior. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

小分子优先结晶构筑聚合物/非富勒烯共混体系互穿网络结构

非富勒烯小分子受体(SMAs)有序聚集决定聚合物/非富勒烯共混体系光伏电池的双分子复合几率。 然而,由于非对称相分离聚合物趋于优先形成网络,抑制小分子受体分子结晶。 在聚[(2,6-(4,8-二(5-(2-乙基己基噻吩-2-基)苯并[1,2-b:4,5-b']二噻吩))-alt-(5,5-(1',3'-二-2-噻吩基-5',7'-二(2-乙基己基)苯并[1',2'-c:4',5'-c']二噻吩-4,8-二酮))](PBDB-T)/9-二(2-亚甲基(3-(1,1-二氰基亚甲基)-6,7-二氟-茚酮))-5,5,11,11-四(4-己基苯基)-二噻吩并[2,3-d:2',3'-d']-s-引达省[1,2-b:5,6-b']二噻吩(IT-4F)共混体系,四氢呋喃蒸汽处理可提高IT-4F结晶性,150 ℃热退火可提高PBDB-T的结晶性。 因此,依次利用蒸汽退火和热退火处理薄膜,诱导小分子先结晶、聚合物后结晶,从而降低PBDB-T对小分子扩散的限制,构建高结晶互穿网络结构。 形貌优化后降低了双分子复合,器件光电转换效率从5.95%提高至7.18%。     

Chiral transformation of cyanine dye aggregates induced by small peptides

Three small peptides (K4, K5, and K6) with different length were designed to induce the transformation of the assembled state and the chirality of cyanine dye supramolecule. The absorption and circular dichroism (CD) results indicated that, the peptides tend to induce cyanine dye to H-aggregation, competed with Na(+) in PBS, which would induce dye to J-aggregation. Meanwhile, all three peptides could influence the chirality of both J-aggregates induced by Na(+) and H-aggregates, among which K6 could induce chiral reversion of J-aggregates. Furthermore, molecular modeling and energy calculation results have shown that the peptides with different chain length have different conformations. This might be the reason for cyanine dye to form the different chiral assembly induced by these oligo-peptide templates.
