Homochiral expression of proteins:a discussion on the natural chirality related to the origin of life

Homochirality in life has always been a driving force in scientific research and natural exploration. It has not been satisfactorily explained, and systematic investigations are necessary. This paper reported a homochiral expression of proteins dependent on the stirring direction of growing media. By controlling the stirring direction clockwise (CW) and anticlockwise (ACW) of the culture medium, proteins with distinct secondary structures were obtained, and D-amino acid may be included in the protein cultur...     

Using factor analysis scales of generalized amino acid information for prediction and characteristic analysis of β-turns in proteins based on a support vector machine model

This paper offers a new combined approach to predict and characterize β-turns in proteins.The approach includes two key steps,i.e.,how to represent the features of β-turns and how to develop a predictor.The first step is to use factor analysis scales of generalized amino acid information(FASGAI),involving hydrophobicity,alpha and turn propensities,bulky properties,compositional characteristics,local flexibility and electronic properties,to represent the features of β-turns in proteins.The second step is to ...

Amplified spontaneous emission and power amplification in high-power DF laser systems

Amplified spontaneous emission （ASE） always occurs in high-power DF laser systems with master oscillator-power amplifier （MOPA） configuration. ASE not only reduces the energy extraction efficiency of the laser system, but also negatively influences its heat management. The interaction between the ASE flux and the coherent laser flux, as well as the effect of ASE on cuboid DF amplifiers, is studied using a finite difference method and an iterative arithmetic. In addition, the influence of ASE on coherent laser amplification is discussed in detail.     

Configuration of an optical waveguide interconnect mesh network based on EOPCB

<正>An optical waveguide interconnect mesh network scheme for parallel multiprocessor systems based on an electro-optical printed circuit board(EOPCB) with multimode polymer waveguide is proposed.The system consists of 2×2 processor element chips interconnected in a mesh network configuration.An additional layer with optical waveguide structure is embedded in a conventional printed circuit board to construct the EOPCB.Vertical cavity surface emitting laser(VCSEL)/positive intrinsic-negative(PIN) arrays are applied as the optical transmitters/receivers.Three 1×12 VCSEL/PIN parallel optical transmitting/receiving modules are used to provide 32 input/output optical channels required by the 2×2 chip-to-chip optical mesh interconnect system.The data rate in each optical channel is 3.125 Gbps and thus 10 Gbps parallel optical interconnect link for each direction of a chip is obtained.The optical signals from a processor element chip can be transmitted to another chip through optical waveguide interconnect embedded in the board.Thus the optical interconnect mesh network for parallel multiprocessor system can be implemented.

Research on the mechanics of underwater supersonic gas jets

An experimental research was carried out to study the fluid mechanics of underwater supersonic gas jets. High pressure air was injected into a water tank through converging-diverging nozzles (Laval nozzles). The jets were operated at different conditions of over-, full- and under-expansions. The jet sequences were visualized using a CCD camera. It was found that the injection of supersonic air jets into water is always accompanied by strong flow oscillation, which is related to the phenomenon of shock waves feedback in the gas phase. The shock wave feedback is different from the acoustic feedback when a supersonic gas jet discharges into open air, which causes screech tone. It is a process that the shock waves enclosed in the gas pocket induce a periodic pressure with large amplitude variation in the gas jet. Consequently, the periodic pressure causes the jet oscillation including the large amplitude expansion. Detailed pressure measurements were also conducted to verify the shock wave feedback phenomenon. Three kinds of measuring methods were used, i.e., pressure probe submerged in water, pressure measurements from the side and front walls of the nozzle devices respectively. The results measured by these methods are in a good agreement. They show that every oscillation of the jets causes a sudden increase of pressure and the average frequency of the shock wave feedback is about 5–10 Hz.
