水雾红外隐身的冷/热目标效应

人工水雾对抗红外成像制导导弹时,会因为蒸发对流强、辐射热流弱而使水雾形成冷目标;也可能因为辐射热流过强、散热弱而形成热目标。为详细揭示该现象,以Mie理论为基础,通过辐射传递方程和能量守恒方程的耦合计算,建立了水雾红外隐身产生冷目标或热目标效应的数学模型。应用蒙特卡洛法与本文算法作对比,验证了模型的正确性;将水雾视为吸收、发射、各向异性散射介质,考虑水雾自身辐射、多重散射和各种换热过程,比如辐射热流、两相流的热传导、热对流、紊流热扩散以及雾滴蒸发等,反映了水雾热遮蔽所产生的冷/热目标效应。

详细讨论了网络优化参数、模拟的测量过程中噪声及杂质对网络收敛性能及预测误差的影响。为加速网络收敛,提高紫外光谱检索的正确率,采用了导数光谱对反向传播的人工神经网络(BP-ANN)进行训练和检索,该方法对检索光谱中噪声、杂质,尤其是斜坡背景的允许程度明显提高。文章还将ANN方法与普通的相关系数法的识别结果进行了比较。结果表明,优化参数下的人工神经网络的库检索法在抗噪、容杂等方面都明显地优于普通的相关系数法,是一种很有效的紫外库检索方法。     

Investigation on cell biocompatible behaviors of polyaniline film fabricated via electroless surface polymerization

Considering for the potential application in tissue engineering, polyaniline (PANi) film was fabricated via a two-step route: a self-assembled monolayer of C₆H₅NHC₃H₆Si(OMe)₃ was firstly formed on the single-crystal Si substrate; the conducting PANi film was then prepared through electroless surface polymerization of the aniline molecules on the aniline monolayer-bearing silane surface in an acidic aqueous solution. The formation of PANi film on Si surface was confirmed by characterizations of X-ray photoelectron spectroscope (XPS) and specular reflectance Fourier transform infrared (SR-FTIR) spectrum, etc. At last, the proliferation behaviors of PC-12 cells on the PANi film surface were studied by the [3-(4,5-dimethyldiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide] (MTT) colorimetric assays, acridine orange fluorometric staining, and scanning electron microscope (SEM) observation, etc. The results demonstrate that the as-prepared PANi film provides high ability for cell proliferation, exhibiting promising potentials as surface coating to cultivate neuronal cells for applications in the tissue engineering.     

Psychoacoustics of in-car switch buttons: From feelings to engineering parameters

The car interior is becoming quieter and other sounds are now exposed to user perception, such as the sound produced by interface buttons when actuated. So, the functional role of the button sound on interface operation and its aesthetic and emotional role on the user experience are now more important than before. However, little research and design effort has been paid to understand how to design buttons that produce a pleasant sound. Moreover, the button’s sound requirements received by interface manufacturers are ill-defined, insufficient or even inexistent, and consequently their conversion into specifications for manufacturing is problematic and leads to long and costly development processes. The purpose of this paper is to contribute to identify relevant acoustic parameters that explain the users sound preferences. Data on preference subjective judgments were collected and buttons acoustic signals were measured allowing the development of preference models based on partial least squares regression and neural networks methods. The former was successful in selecting the relevant parameters to describe the preference ratings of the buttons sound. The later, dealing with the non-linear nature of acoustic perception, was able to predict preferences based on the relevant parameters.     

黄土区金盏菊幼苗根部细胞壁对Pb/Cd复合胁迫响应的FTIR和Raman光谱

植物修复法是新兴的重金属污染土壤修复手段,也是未来极富应用潜力的主流技术之一。植物根部细胞壁作为重金属/土壤/植物相的交界面,天然地成为修复效能调控过程的关键部位和信号通道。植物细胞壁与重金属离子的作用行为具有物理化学和生理生化的双重属性,但以光谱技术为切入点,原位解析植物根部细胞壁对土壤重金属离子的响应关系还不多见。以黄土区修复植物金盏菊幼苗为研究对象,分析Pb/Cd复合胁迫对其根部细胞壁形貌的影响,借助X射线荧光光谱(XRF)、X射线衍射(XRD)、傅里叶变换红外光谱(FTIR)和拉曼光谱(Raman)揭示细胞壁对Pb/Cd胁迫的响应信号。结果发现:Pb/Cd胁迫导致金盏菊根部细胞壁弯曲萎缩,表面分布若干点状深色沉积物颗粒;XRF证实细胞壁Pb/Xd含量增加,但XRD图谱没有发现典型Pb/Xd结晶峰。FTIP图谱中—OH振动峰定位于3 416 cm~(-1)处,表明Pb/Cd离子与—OH间可能存在配位键合;1 701和1 593 cm~(-1)处的特征峰分别移动到1 736和1 618 cm~(-1),说明Pb/Cd胁迫改变了金盏菊根部细胞壁蛋白质结构属性。Raman光谱中2 960 cm~(-1)附近峰强增加,暗示Pb/Cd胁迫影响了细胞壁纤维素分子排列方向。可以认为,细胞壁组分(果胶、蛋白质、纤维素等)和典型官能团(—OH,N—H,C=O等)对于减缓Pb/Cd胁迫引起的金盏菊根部细胞壁毒害效应贡献较大。

A cell functional minimization scheme for parabolic problem

We are interested in a robust and accurate finite volume scheme for 2-D parabolic problems derived from the cell functional minimization approach. The scheme has a local stencil, is locally conservative, treats discontinuity rigorously and leads to a symmetric positive definite linear system. Since the scheme has both cell centered unknowns and cell edge unknowns, the computational cost is an issue and a parallel algorithm is then suggested based on nonoverlapping domain decomposition approach. The interface condition is of the Dirichlet–Robin type and has a parameter λ. By choosing this parameter properly, the convergence of the iteration process could be sped up. Numerical results for linear and nonlinear problems demonstrate the good performance of the cell functional minimization scheme and its parallel version on distorted meshes.

总血红蛋白浓度和血氧饱和度是两个基本的血氧参数。文章提出了利用内置双光纤微创探头在位测量大鼠脑组织血氧参数的新方法。首先,利用悬乳液(Intralipid)和全血配置不同总血红蛋白浓度的混合溶液,模拟生物组织模型,用光纤光谱仪测试系统测量组织模型在加氧和去氧时的实时吸收光谱,同时用血氧分析仪(OXI meter)对血氧参数定标,建立测试光谱和定标数据样本集。然后,利用人工神经网络建立血液吸收光谱与血氧参数的神经网络模型,训练后的网络模型能根据吸收光谱输出生物组织的血氧参数值,总血红蛋白浓度和血氧饱和度的平均输出误差分别为±4μmol·L-1和±5%。最后,利用神经网络模型对大鼠脑组织血氧参数进行了在位测试实验,测得脑灰质的血氧饱和度为0.60~0.70,脑白质血氧饱和度为0.45~0.55;总血红蛋白浓度在脑皮层(深度1mm)附近最高,平均110μmol·L-1,其余深度脑组织的总血红蛋白浓度为70~90μmol·L-1。这种方法对脑外科微创手术中实时在位测试脑组织血氧参数具有重要的参考意义。     

Physiochemical and cytotoxicity study of TPGS stabilized nanoemulsion designed by ultrasonication method

The main aim of the present work was to prepare TPGS stabilized D-α-Tocopherol, lemon oil, tween-80, and water nanoemulsion by low cost and highly effective sonication method. The prepared nanoemulsion showed good stability for 60 days at variable temperature conditions i.e. 4, 25 and 37 °C. The tolerance of the prepared nanoemulsion to salt (50 mM–500 mM) and pH (pH 2–pH 7.4) was also studied. The morphology and droplet size of pure and quinine loaded nanoemulsion was characterized with transmission electron microscopy. The prepared formulation was transparent and the obtained average particle size ranged between 25 nm and 35 nm. The nanoemulsion was found to be non toxic. The cell viability study of pure nanoemulsion carried out on Hep G2 cells revealed that the cell viability was 100%. The formulation further exhibited high quinine loading and release capacity with cumulative release up to 76 ± 2% and 65 ± 2% at pH 7.4 and pH 5.5 respectively. The interaction between quinine and vitamins (riboflavin, thiamine and biotin) was also carried out (aqueous medium). The study revealed that riboflavin had strong interaction with quinine and vitamins vis-à-vis thiamine and biotin.     

Rapid and high-capacity ultrasonic assisted adsorption of ternary toxic anionic dyes onto MOF-5-activated carbon: Artificial neural networks,partial least squares,desirability function and isotherm and kinetic study

The present paper focused on the ultrasonic assisted simultaneous removal of fast green (FG), eosin Y (EY) and quinine yellow (QY) from aqueous media following using MOF-5 as a metal organic framework and activated carbon hybrid (AC-MOF-5). The structure and morphology of AC-MOF-5 was identified by SEM, FTIR and XRD analysis. The interactive and main effects of variables such as pH, initial dyes concentration (mg L⁻¹), adsorbent dosage (mg) and sonication time (min) on removal percentage were studied by central composite design (CCD), subsequent desirability function (DF) permit to achieved real variable experimental condition. Optimized values were found 7.06, 5.68, 7.59 and 5.04 mg L⁻¹, 0.02 g and 2.55 min for pH, FG, EY and QY concentration, adsorbent dosage and sonication time, respectively. Under this conditions removal percentage were obtained 98.1%, 98.1% and 91.91% for FG, EY and QY, respectively. Two models, namely partial least squares (PLS) and multi-layer artificial neural network (ANN) model were used for building up to construct an empirical model to predict the dyes under study removal behavior. The obtained results show that ANN and PLS model is a powerful tool for prediction of under-study dyes adsorption by AC-MOF-5. The evaluation and estimation of equilibrium data from traditional isotherm models display that the Langmuir model indicated the best fit to the equilibrium data with maximum adsorption capacity of 21.230, 20.242 and 18.621 mg g⁻¹, for FG, EY and QY, respectively, while the adsorption rate efficiently follows the pseudo-second-order model.
