Synthesis of new hydrolyzable polyurethanes from L‐gulonic acid‐derived diols and diisocyanates

New polyurethanes with lactone groups in the pendants and main chains were synthesized by the polyaddition of two kinds of L ‐gulonolactone‐derived diols (2,3‐O‐isopropylidene‐L ‐gulono‐1,4‐lactone and 5,6‐O‐isopropylidene‐L ‐gulono‐1,4‐lactone) with hexamethylene diisocyanate and methyl (S)‐2,6‐diisocyanatohexanoate and by the subsequent deprotection of isopropylidene groups. They were hydrolyzed more quickly than the polyurethane derived from methyl β‐D ‐glucofuranosidurono‐6,3‐lactone in a phosphate buffer solution, the pH value of which was 8.0, at 27 °C. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Particle circulation and oxygen mass transfer in an immobilized cell bioreactor

Two important considerations in the design of an aerobic particulate immobilized cell bioreactor are the provision of sufficient oxygen to maintain the desired metabolism of the immobilized organism, and the biomass holdup (which is proportional to the number of immobilized cell particles in the reactor). The Circulating Bed Reactor, a reactor developed for use with those forms of immobilization that result in particles of essentially neutral buoyancy, operates with an expanded bed of circulating particles. The particle number density attainable in such a reactor has been found to be dependent upon the circulation cell aspect ratio, the individual particle properties, the static bed voidage of the particles, and the superficial gas velocity. The oxygen mass transfer characteristics have been found to be dependent upon the circulatory nature of the system, the particle (solids) holdup, the particle porosity, and the superficial gas velocity.     

Magneto‐Adaptive Surfactants Showing Anti‐Curie Behavior and Tunable Surface Tension as Porogens for Mesoporous Particles with 12‐Fold Symmetry

Gaining external control over self‐organization is of vital importance for future smart materials. Surfactants are extremely valuable for the synthesis of diverse nanomaterials. Their self‐assembly is dictated by microphase separation, the hydrophobic effect, and head‐group repulsion. It is desirable to supplement surfactants with an added mode of long‐range and directional interaction. Magnetic forces are ideal, as they are not shielded in water. We report on surfactants with heads containing tightly bound transition‐metal centers. The magnetic moment of the head was varied systematically while keeping shape and charge constant. Changes in the magnetic moment of the head led to notable differences in surface tension, aggregate size, and contact angle, which could also be altered by an external magnetic field. The most astonishing result was that the use of magnetic surfactants as structure‐directing agents enabled the formation of porous solids with 12‐fold rotational symmetry.     

不同侧风类型影响下的飞机尾涡数值模拟研究

在航空飞行中,低空风切变极易对处在起飞爬升或进近着陆阶段的飞机带来安全隐患,严重时会导致飞机失速甚至坠毁。低空风切变往往还具有持续时间短、尺度小、突发性强等特点。因此在中国民航和通用航空业高速发展的背景下,加强对飞机遭遇低空风切变的数值模拟仿真和研究具有重要意义和实际价值。采用SST模型并使用FLUENT计算尾涡演化,通过构建H-B尾涡耗散二维模型,应用ANSYS FLUENT UDF(user defined function)编译环境侧风不同的7种情况进行尾涡耗散机理的数值模拟,通过对比成都双流机场实地探测的尾涡发现在非线性垂直切变影响下侧风和涡诱导速度的叠加会导致尾涡对周围的压力分布不对称,引起尾涡对倾斜。     

On the decay of solutions in nonsimple elastic solids with memory

The decay of solutions in nonsimple elasticity with memory is addressed, analyzing how the decay rate is influenced by the different dissipation mechanisms appearing in the equations. In particular, a first order dissipation is shown to guarantee the asymptotic stability of the related solution semigroup, but is not strong enough to entail exponential stability. The latter occurs for a dissipation mechanism of the second order, that is, the same order as the one of the leading operator.     

考虑溯源系统应用的优质农产品双渠道供应链决策研究

优质农产品溯源系统的引入,既能提升有效供给、缩短流通时间,又能降低流通中的数量损耗和价值损失,由此带来了双渠道供应链系统在投资、销售、定价等方面的系列决策问题。考虑制造商开辟电子渠道、从溯源系统降低流通损耗和提高质量出发,分别构建制造商主导型的双渠道供应链决策模型。通过对比分析应用前后各成员在投资、定价及销售方面的最优策略,得到相关的核心边界值。数值仿真结果表明:核心边界值主要与双重损耗的改善程度及其他参数相关,各成员及系统接受溯源系统的应用成本不同,应用成本对各渠道销量的影响程度亦不相同,但各成员调整定价的应用成本边界值是一致的。     

洞庭湖区洪涝灾害的形成机制分析

为搞好洞庭湖区洪涝灾害的预测和防灾减灾,促进湖区经济建设,本文对洞庭湖区洪涝灾害的形成机制进行了分析研究.结果表明:80 %特大洪涝灾害的发生在厄尔尼诺年的次年,其内在机制是厄尔尼诺事件所导致的全球气候异常.大气环流的异常是洪涝发生的根本原因,主要表现在有特大洪涝年汛期,位于110°~120°E的西太平洋副高脊线位置都稳定处于19°~24°N之间,且越过24°N的时间大致与城陵矶年最高水位出现时间相吻合;西风带形势稳定;印度低压偏强并持续稳定.洞庭湖区洪涝与湖区、四水流域、长江上游东部区和西部区等广泛地域的降水密切相关,汛期在这4个区域第一次大范围的强降水过程以后20 天各代表站降水量总和的平均值对洞庭湖的洪涝预测具有决定性意义.

Mathematical modeling of flows through inelastic porous solids

We propose a framework, based on classical mixture theory, to describe the isothermal flow of an incompressible fluid through a deformable inelastic porous solid. The modeling of the behavior of the inelastic solid takes into account changes in the elastic response due to evolution in the microstructure of the material. We apply the model to a compression layer problem. The mathematical problem generated by the model is a free boundary problem.
