Effect of the Reaction Temperature on the Removal of Diesel Particulate Matter by Ozone Injection

This study seeks to investigate the removal efficiency of particulate matter (PM) from the actual diesel exhaust at various reaction temperatures by using non-thermal plasma (NTP). The effect of the reaction temperature on removal efficiency was reflected by the change in the concentration of particles in different modes and the weight fraction of volatile organics in PM. The Arrhenius equation was used to determine the apparent activation energies E_a of the soot in PM. In addition, the difference in the oxidation reaction at various reaction temperatures and the effect of NTP on the properties of PM were discussed. After considering the decreasing ranges of the total concentration and the weight of the PM, it was determined that 120 °C is the optimal temperature choice for PM removal. The decreasing range of the total concentration reached 57.13% and 66.79% of PM was removed when the PM is measured by weight. NTP has better effect on the removal of smaller particles. The weight fraction of the volatile fraction markedly decreases after the reaction and the apparent activation energy of soot noticeably decreased. The oxidizability of the excited species in NTP was enhanced with the increase of the reaction temperature. However, the excited species concentration declined concurrently, resulting in the occurrence of the optimized range of reaction temperature. The particles were removed by the oxidation that occurred on the surface of the primary particle and the disintegration of the structure of the particles.

基于复杂网络的能源互联网信息物理融合系统跨空间风险传递研究

能源互联网呈现物理信息深度融合的趋势,为电力系统管理研究定义了新的研究框架。作为一个先进的复杂系统,能源互联网信息物理系统(Energy Internet Cyber-Physical System,ECPS)在其发展过程中面临着一些新的挑战,其中一个就是耦合结构下的风险管理。本文结合复杂网络理论和风险传递理论,着重在拓扑层面分析了ECPS跨空间交互机理,并在此基础上定义了交互路径和交互系数;接着建立了ECPS跨空间风险传递模型,量化描述了风险的传递和演化过程,并进行了风险影响评估;最后,通过仿真实验分析了三种不同交互系数节点故障的风险传递过程和不同攻击模式下系统的崩溃过程。对仿真结果的讨论阐述了能源互联网风险跨空间传递的特点,为更深入地研究ECPS的风险管理提供了参考。     

刀锋伪影校正技术在精神疾病患者海马MRI检查中的应用

为探讨磁共振刀锋伪影校正（BLADE）技术提升精神疾病患者海马磁共振图像质量的效果，本文分别使用结合了BLADE技术的BLADE T₂WI TSE、BLADE T₂WI FLAIR及传统T₂WI TSE、T₂WI FLAIR四种序列，对47例精神疾病患者和美国放射学院（ACR）标准模体在3.0 T磁共振成像（MRI）设备上分别进行常规海马斜冠状位扫描和ACR标准检测.患者的磁共振图像由2名放射科医师采用5分法对运动伪影、搏动伪影、颗粒度、海马磁共振图像质量进行评价，并应用Wilcoxon符号秩检验进行数据分析.模体图像通过识别图像的钻孔阵列和轮辐的数目，半定量评价各序列的高对比空间分辨力（HCSR）和低对比物体探测能力（LCD）.结果表明相比传统序列，结合BLADE技术的序列能够明显改善海马磁共振图像的运动伪影、搏动伪影（p<0.001），提高图像质量（p<0.05）；但在图像颗粒度方面，传统序列表现更优（p<0.001）.ACR模体半定量分析显示，结合BLADE技术序列与传统序列相比，在LCD检测方面结果更优、在HCSR检测方面结果相同或略逊.本文推荐将BLADE技术应用于不合作的精神疾病患者海马的MRI检查.     

Potent Anticancer Efficacy of First-In-Class CuII and AuIII Metaled Phosphorus Dendrons with Distinct Cell Death Pathways

First-in-class Cu^II and Au^III metaled phosphorus dendrons were synthesized and showed significant antiproliferative activity against several aggressive breast cancer cell lines. The data suggest that the cytotoxicity increases with reducing length of the alkyl chains, whereas the replacement of Cu^II with Au^III considerably increases the antiproliferative activity of metaled phosphorus dendrons. Very interestingly, we found that the cell death pathway is related to the nature of the metal complexed by the plain dendrons. Cu^II metaled dendrons showed a potent caspase-independent cell death pathway, whereas Au^III metaled dendrons displayed a caspase-dependent apoptotic pathway. The complexation of plain dendrons with Au^III increased the cellular lethality versus dendrons with Cu^II and promoted the translocation of Bax into the mitochondria and the release of Cytochrome C (Cyto C).
