BEM for simulation of a 2D elastic body with randomly distributed circular inclusions

Based on our 2D BEM software THBEM2 which can be applied to the simulation of an elastic body with randomly distributed identical circular holes, a scheme of BEM for the simulation of elastic bodies with randomly distributed circular inclusions is proposed. The numerical examples given show that the boundary element method is more accurate and more effective than the finite element method for such a problem. The scheme presented can also be successfully used to estimate the effective elastic properties of composite materials.

Multi-scale Fractured Coal Gas–Solid Coupling Model and Its Applications in Engineering Projects

With coal mining entering the geological environment of “high stress, rich gas, strong adsorption and low permeability,” the difficulty of joint coal and gas extraction clearly augments, the risk of solid–gas coupling dynamic disasters greatly increases, and the underlying mechanisms become more complex. In this paper, based on the characteristics of coal’s multi-scale structure and spatiotemporal variation, the multi-scale fractured coal gas–solid coupling model (MSFM) was built. In this model, the interaction between coal matrix and its fractures and the mechanical characteristics of gas-bearing coal were considered, as well as their coupling relationship. By MATLAB software, the stress–damage–seepage numerical computation programs were developed, which were applied into Comsol Multiphysics to simulate gas flow caused by coal mining. The simulation results showed the spatial variability of coal elastic modulus and cross-flow behaviors of coal seam gas, which were superior to the results of traditional gas–solid coupling model. And the numerical results obtained from MSFM were closer to the measured results in field, while the computation results of traditional model were slightly higher than the measured results. Furthermore, the MSFM in a large scale was verified by field engineering project.     

Experimental and Numerical Investigation on Strain Rate-Dependent Tensile Behavior of ZrB2–SiC Ceramic Composite

In this study,the strain rate-dependent dynamic tensile behavior of ZrB2-20%SiC ceramic composite was investigated using experimental and numerical approaches.The split Hopkinson pressure bar apparatus was used to measure the dynamic splitting tensile response at strain rates of 17-67 s^?1.The experiment results demonstrate a significant strain rate dependence of the dynamic tensile behavior of the ZrB2-SiC ceramic composite.The dynamic tensile strength increased linearly with the strain rate,from 288 MPa at 17 s^?1to 654 MPa at 67 s^?1.Moreover,a strain rate-dependent tensile strength was introduced into a modified JH-2 model to describe the dynamic tensile behavior and fracture process of ZrB2-SiC ceramics.The numerical results of dynamic tensile strength agree well with the experimental result.Moreover,the fracture process of ZrB2-SiC ceramics under dynamic tension was further studied by combining high-speed images and numerical results.The effect of strain rate on the fracture process and failure patterns of the ZrB2-SiC ceramic composite could be verified by the modified JH-2 model.     

Anthraquinones from the Aerial Parts of Rubia cordifolia with Their NO Inhibitory and Antibacterial Activities

The present study aimed to identify the composition of the aerial parts of Rubia cordifolia L. A chemical investigation on the EtOAc extracts from the aerial parts of Rubia cordifolia resulted in the isolation of four new anthraquinones, namely Cordifoquinone A–D (1–4), along with 16 known anthraquinones. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of NMR and HR-ESIMS data. All isolates were assessed for their inhibitory effects on NO production in LPS-stimulated RAW 264.7 macrophage cells. Compounds 1, 3 and 10 exhibited significant inhibitory activities with IC₅₀ values of 14.05, 23.48 and 29.23 μmol·L⁻¹, respectively. Their antibacterial activities of four bacteria, Escherichia coli (ATCC 25922), Staphylococcus aureus subsp. aureus (ATCC 29213), Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica (ATCC 14028) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (ATCC 27853), were also evaluated. Our results indicated that the antibacterial activity of these compounds is inactive.

太赫兹互补金属氧化物半导体场效应管探测器理论模型中扩散效应研究

针对基于经典动力学理论传统模型中忽略扩散效应的问题,通过对基于玻尔兹曼理论的场效应管传输线模型的理论分析,建立了包含扩散效应的太赫兹互补金属氧化物半导体(CMOS)场效应管探测器理论模型,研究扩散效应对场效应管电导及响应度的影响.同时,将此模型与忽略了扩散效应的传统模型进行了对比仿真模拟,给出了两种模型下的电流响应度随温度及频率变化的差别.依据仿真结果,并结合3σ原则明确了场效应管传输线模型中扩散部分省略的依据和条件.研究结果表明:扩散部分引起的响应度差异大小主要由场效应管的工作温度及工作频率决定.其中工作频率起主要作用,温度变化对差异大小影响较为微弱;而对于工作频率而言,当场效应管工作频率小于1 THz时,模型中的扩散部分可以忽略不计;而当工作频率大于1 THz时,扩散部分不可省略,此时场效应管模型需同时包含漂移、散射及扩散三个物理过程.本文的研究结果为太赫兹CMOS场效应管理论模型的精确建立及模拟提供了理论支持.     

A comprehensive spectroscopic study of synthetic Fe2+, Fe3+, Mg2+ and Al3+ copiapite by Raman,XRD, LIBS,MIR and vis–NIR

The identification of iron sulfates on Mars by the Mars Exploration Rovers (MERs) and the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter emphasized the importance of studying iron sulfates in laboratory simulation experiments. The copiapite group of minerals was suggested as one of the potential iron sulfates occurring on the surface and subsurface on Mars, so it is meaningful to study their spectroscopic features, especially the spectral changes caused by cation substitutions. Four copiapite samples with cation substitutions (Fe³⁺, Al³⁺, Fe²⁺, Mg²⁺) were synthesized in our laboratory. Their identities were confirmed by powder X‐ray diffraction (XRD). Spectroscopic characterizations by Raman, mid‐IR, vis‐NIR and laser‐induced‐breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) were conducted on those synthetic copiapite samples, as these technologies are being (and will be) used in current (and future) missions to Mars. We have found a systematic ν₁peak shift in the Raman spectra of the copiapite samples with cation substitutions, a consistent atomic ratio detection by LIBS, a set of systematic XRD line shifts representing structural change caused by the cation substitutions and a weakening of selection rules in mid‐IR spectra caused by the low site symmetry of (SO₄)²⁻ in the copiapite structures. The near‐infrared (NIR) spectra of the trivalent copiapite species show two strong diagnostic water features near 1.4 and 1.9 µm, with two additional bands near 2.0 µm. In the vis‐NIR spectra, the position of an electronic band shifts from 0.85 µm for ferricopiapite to 0.866 µm for copiapite, and this shift suggests the appearance of a Fe²⁺ electronic transition band near 0.9 µm.

Superexchange interaction enhancement of the quantum transport in a DNA-type molecule

We use the transfer matrix method and the Green function technique to theoretically study the quantum tunnelling through a DNA-type molecule. Ferromagnetic electrodes are used to produce the spin-polarized transmission probability and therefore the spin current. The distance-dependent crossover comes from the topological variation from the one-dimensional to the two-dimensional model transform as we switch on the interstrand coupling; a new base pair will present N-1 extrachannels for the charge and spin as N being the total base pairs. This will restrain the decay of the transmission and improve the stability of the quantum transport. The spin and charge transfer through the DNA-type molecule is consistent with the quantum tunneling barrier.
