A Preliminary Study on Preparation of the Aromatic/Aliphatic Co‐polyurea as Spun Fibers

Aromatic‐aliphatic co‐polyurea has been synthesized from 4,4 prime‐diphenylmethane diisocyanate (MDI), m‐phenylene diamine (m‐PDA), and 1,6‐diaminohexane (HDA) in DMAc by solution polymerization. The chemical structure of the co‐polyurea has been characterized by ¹H‐NMR. The thermal properties of the copolymers were measured by DSC and TGA. The co‐polyurea solutions were spun into fibers by means of wet spinning. The effects of coagulation conditions on the morphologies and mechanical properties of the co‐polyurea as spun fibers are discussed.     

Polymer Electrolytes – New Opportunities for the Development of Multivalent Ion Batteries

Batteries, as highly concerned energy conversion system, have a great development prospect in various fields, especially in the field of energy powered vehicles. Multivalent ion batteries are getting more attention due to their low cost, high abundance in earth crust, high capacity and safety compared with Lithium batteries. Despite above advantages, several problems still need to be solved before multivalent ion batteries achieve large-scale application, such as interfacial parasitic reaction, anode passivation, and dendrites. The replacement of liquid electrolytes with gel polymer electrolytes (GPEs) which pose high safety, high mechanical strength and simplified battery system, is an effective strategy to inhibit dendrite growth and improve electrochemical performance. This review mainly discusses the advantages and challenges of multivalent ion batteries including zinc, magnesium, calcium and aluminum batteries. Meanwhile, the major targets of this review are introducing the recent developments and making a summary of the future trends of GPEs in the multivalent ion batteries.     

From unweighted to weighted networks with local information

In this paper, we analyze an evolving model with local information which can generate a class of networks by choosing different values of the parameter p. The model introduced exhibits the transition from unweighted networks to weighted networks because the distribution of the edge weight can be widely tuned. With the increase in the local information, the degree correlation of the network transforms from assortative to disassortative. We also study the distribution of the degree, strength and edge weight, which all show crossover between exponential and scale-free. Finally, an application of the proposed model to the study of the synchronization is considered. It is concluded that the synchronizability is enhanced when the heterogeneity of the edge weight is reduced.     

Stochastic optimal control and algorithm of the trajectory of horizontal wells

This paper presents a nonlinear, multi-phase and stochastic dynamical system according to engineering background. We show that the stochastic dynamical system exists a unique solution for every initial state. A stochastic optimal control model is constructed and the sufficient and necessary conditions for optimality are proved via dynamic programming principle. This model can be converted into a parametric nonlinear stochastic programming by integrating the state equation. It is discussed here that the local optimal solution depends in a continuous way on the parameters. A revised Hooke–Jeeves algorithm based on this property has been developed. Computer simulation is used for this paper, and the numerical results illustrate the validity and efficiency of the algorithm.     

Novel three-dimensional dandelion-like TiO2 structure with high photocatalytic activity

Pure rutile phase crystalline TiO₂ powder with novel 3D dandelion-like structure was synthesized by using a facile hydrothermal method with TiCl₃ as the main starting material. In such a 3D structure, the nanometer-scale construction elements aggregate together and form a micrometer-scale artificial unit. The typical 3D dandelion structure has an average diameter of 1.5-2 μm and is packed radially by nanorods with [001] preference growth direction. Each individual nanorod is hundreds of nanometers in length, and tens of nanometers in diameter. The obtained 3D dandelion-like TiO₂ powder has a high photocatalytic activity, which is equivalent to that of the commercial available P25 titania powder. Mechanisms of the formation of the dandelion-like structure were also discussed. A different oxidation process of Ti(III) to Ti(IV) during hydrothermal was suggested.     

Microcalorimetric study of the effect of artesunate on the growth metabolism of mitochondria isolated from rat liver

In this study, the metabolic thermogenic curves of mitochondria isolated from rat liver tissue were drawn, and the effects of artesunate on metabolic activity of mitochondria were studied using TAM Air Isothermal Microcalorimeter. After isolation from the rat liver, mitochondria still have metabolic activity and can live for a week with appropriate nutrients. With the addition of artesunate (7.5 μM/mL), the metabolic activity of mitochondria was completely lost at this concentration. From the thermogenic curves, we obtained the thermokinetic equations under different conditions: T _max = 2512.24 + 1761.53c, R = 0.9375; and Tlag (min) = 707.26 + 285.17c, R = 0.9846. The results showed that artesunate was a mitochondria-targeted drug having obvious effects on mitochondrial metabolism.

Experimental studies of linear phased-array transmitter acoustic logging in cased wells with scaled borehole models

Laboratory cased-hole acoustic logging simulations are developed with the linear phased-array transmitter in scaled cased well models for evaluating the feasibility of extracting formation acoustic parameters through casing.The full waveforms are measured with different cement bonding models.By analyzing the measured wavetrains and the time-slowness correlation graphs,it is showed that when the generation conditions of the refracted compressional wave and the refracted shear wave are reached successively by regulating the direction of acoustic beam radiated from the linear phased-array transmitter,steered angle of the main radiation lobe with both good bonding interfaces.The refracted compressional wave and the refracted shear wave can be stimulated obviously and the casing wave can be suppressed effectively,even when the casing and cement(or the cement and formation) is not bonded.Based on these observations, it is worthwhile to apply the linear phased-array transmitter to determine formation velocities,particularly in poorly bonded cased well.The works establish the experimental and theoretical foundation for new generation cased-hole acoustic logging tool development.
