    • POD finite element method for reconstruction of viscous acoustic wave equations

      SONG Chun, WANG Lu, FENG Min-Fu

      2023,60(3):031005

      Abstract:

      Prestack reverse time migration is a popular method for imaging underground structures in seismic exploration. Its imaging condition requires to gather data from the source wavefield and receiver wavefield samultaneously, which means that we have to store all source wavefield data at all times of the forward simulation and huge storage demand. The source wavefield reconstruction technologies can be used to solve this problem at the cost of introducing additional computational complexity. In this paper we introduce the POD finite element method and apply it to the reconstruction of viscous source wavefield, here the proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) method is used to reduce the storage demand by decreasing the dimensionality of data while keeping high enough accuracy. Numerical examples show that, compared with the traditional finite element methods, the POD finite element method can save more computer memory and speed up the reconstruction.

    • A conservative difference scheme with six-order spatial accuracy for the KdV equation

      GUO Zhen, HU Jin-Song

      2023,60(3):031006

      Abstract:

      In this paper, we propose a two-level differece scheme with six-order spatial accuracy for the initial boundary value problem of KdV equation with homogeneous boundary condition. In this scheme, the Crank-Nicolson difference scheme with second-order theoretical accuracy in time layer and the discretization of space layer is performed by extrapolating difference combination with six-order accuracy. This scheme can simulate two conservation properties of the original problem reasonably. Then the convergence and stability of the scheme are proved by using the energy method. Finally, numerical examples verify the performance of the scheme.

    • Super-resolution of images based on Generative Adversarial Network and noise distribution

      WANG Ye, SUN Zhi-Kuan, Li Zheng

      2023,60(3):032001

      Abstract:

      Existing image super-resolution reconstruction methods take less into account the noise information contained in real low-resolution images, which will affect the quality of image reconstruction. Inspired by the real image denoising algorithm, this paper introduces a noise distribution collection network to collect noise distribution information of low-resolution images, and adopts a model design of Generative Adversarial Network to improve the reconstruction quality of noisy images. The noise distribution information will be input to the super-resolution reconstruction network and the discriminant network respectively. During the reconstruction process, the noise is removed during while ensuring the recovery of useful high-frequency information, because the ability of the discriminant network has an important impact on the performance of the entire model, the U-Net network is selected to obtain better gradient information feedback. Comparison with the classical image super-resolution reconstruction methods and ablation experiments,the resluts show that the proposed model obtains better performance in the noisy low-resolution image reconstruction task after using the noise collection network and the U-Net discriminant network.

    • Research on key node identification of complex network based on GCN

      YANG Yang, WANG Jun-Feng

      2023,60(3):032002

      Abstract:

      Accurately identifying the key nodes in the network is one of the important research topics in complex networks. Most of the existing key node identification methods are based on the centrality measurement method by the network structure, which has low identification accuracy and limited scope of application. A key node identification method, based on Graph Convolutional Network (GCN), is proposed in this paper, which considers not only the node attributes, but also the network structure and neighbor node structure. Multidimensional features are extracted first from the network legend data to construct feature vectors and then the node feature vector is input to the GCN layer for learning. Finally, the minimum loss is calculated with the regression loss function, and the key nodes are identified. In this paper, SIR (Susceptible Infected Removed) is choosed as the evaluation method in the propagation dynamics simulation experiment and Pinning Control experiment, the proposed method is verified on different types of real networks, the results show that the GCN based method proposed in this paper outperforms other methods in terms of scope of application and accuracy.

    • Blind face restoration based on Swin Transformer and Style-Based Generator

      XIANG Ze-Lin, LOU Xu-Dong, LI Xu-Wei

      2023,60(3):032003

      Abstract:

      Blind face restoration is the process of restoring a high-quality image from a low-quality image (e.g., blurred, noisy, or compressed image). Since the degradation type and degradation parameters of the low-quality image are unknown, blind face restoration is a highly ill-posed problem that heavily relies on various facial prior such as facial components and facial landmarks during the restoration process. However, these facial priors are typically extracted or estimated from low-quality images, which may be inaccurate, directly affecting the final restoration performance. The current mainstream methods mostly use ConNets for feature extraction and do not consider long-distance features, resulting in a lack of continuous consistency in the final results.The authors propose an improved StyleGAN model named SwinStyleGAN, which uses Swin Transformer to extract long-distance features and gradually generates images through an improved StyleGAN synthesis network.Addtionally, the authors design a Spatial Attention Transformation (SAT) module to reassign pixel weights of each stage feature to further constrain the generator. Experiments show that the proposed SwinStyleGAN in this paper has better blind face restoration performance.

    • A Temporal evolving graph convolutional network for Public opinion prediction in emergencies

      WEN Ya, YANG Pin, LIAO Shan, DAI Jin-Qiao, JIA Peng

      2023,60(3):033001

      Abstract:

      Public opinion prediction is one of the key solutions to improve the ability to guide public opinion in emergencies. However, most of the existing public opinion prediction work focuses on the trend indicator or sentiment polarity of events ,while little attention paid to the prediction of hot words and topics in specific events. In this paper, a temporal evolving graph convolutional network for public opinion prediction in emergencies is proposed, in which the hot words associated with specific events are taken as the object of public opinion prediction. Our approach combines evolving graph convolutional network with gated recurrent unit: the former is used to learn the dynamic spatial correlation between words and the latter is used to capture the temporal changes of words, the hot words of an emergency in the next time period is then predicted through full connection layer output. To validate the proposed method, we selected discussion texts related to two emergencies on Weibo as the dataset, and conducted comparative experiments with two existing hot word prediction methods. The results show that our method achieved higher precision, recall, and F1-score in both emergencies, with precision of 51.21% and 50.98%, recall of 50.17% and 48.15%, and F1-scores of 50.68% and 49.52%, respectively. These results demonstrate that our proposed method is effective inpredicting public opinion during emergencies

    • Research on application system log anomaly detection based on federated transfer learning

      ZENG Min-Chuan, FANG Yong, XU Yi-Jia

      2023,60(3):033002

      Abstract:

      Significant progress has been made in the research of log anomaly detection. However, two challenges still exist in reality. Firstly, log data is often stored on different servers, creating "data islands", the number of abnormal samples in the log data of a single company or organization is insufficient and the abnormal patterns are relatively limited, it is a challenge to train a detection model with high accuracy through these data. Integrating log data from different sources can improve the model''s performance but may result in log data leakage during transmission; Secondly,the log data of different application system types varies in log structure and syntax, and simple integration for training models is ineffective. To address these issues, this paper proposes a log anomaly detection training framework called LogFTL based on federated transfer learning, which uses federated learning algorithm based on matching average. On the premise of ensuring the privacy and security of the client''s data, LogFTL aggregates the model parameters of the client on the server side to form a global model which is then distributed to the client side. Using the client''s local data, the LogFTL framework migrates and learns to optimize the client’s local model and the detection effect of local log data is improved.The experiment resluts show that the LogFTL framework proposed in this paper outperforms traditional log anomaly detection methods in federated learning scenarios, and demonstrate the transfer learning effectiveness of LogFTL.

    • Covert timing channel detection method based on grayscale image transformation

      CHEN Hong-Lü, WANG Shi-Rui, LI Feng, WANG Jun-Feng

      2023,60(3):033003

      Abstract:

      Network covert timing channel is a highly concealed method of information leakage. As the main communication method of APT attack, it poses a great threat to network security. The current detection methods for covert channel are insufficient generality, have high false detection rate, and manual extraction of features is time-consuming. This paper proposes a detection method based on grayscale image transformation. This method normalizes the inter-arrival time sequence of packets, and converts them into pixel values, and then converts into a grayscale image, thereby transforming a problem of one-dimensional sequence classification into a problem of two-dimensional image classification. The authors use the Convolutional Neural Networks to automatically acquire image features, and use the Convolutional Block Attention Module to optimize the feature adaptively from two dimensions of space and channel. The authors train the network with the data set composed of legitimate traffic and covert channel traffic, and the obtained binary classifier can be used to judge whether the detected traffic is covert timing channel traffic. Finally, the proposed approach is compared with the four existing detection methods. The experimental results show that the proposed method has higher precision and recall rate, and the proposed model has better generality and lower false detection rate.

    • Research on Collision-Free Grey Box Fuzzing Method

      WANG Song, FANG Yong, JIA Peng

      2023,60(3):033004

      Abstract:

      Grey-box fuzzing technology has been proved to be an efficient and practical vulnerability mining technology. It is widely used in the field of vulnerability mining, and many high-risk vulnerabilities are found through grey-box fuzzing. American Fuzzy Lop(AFL) is a classic representative of grey-box fuzzing and many subsequent grey-box fuzzing are improved on the basis of AFL according to different conditions but AFL still faces certain issues.AFL uses random numbers to represent instrumentation points when performing instrumentation on target program, the random numbers of the two instrumentation points are used to perform the XOR operation in the testing process, and the result is used to represent an edge.This method can lead to HASH collision problems when performing edge statistics, which decreases the probability of discovering new edges and affects AFL''s vulnerability mining efficiency, especially for larger code sizes..In this paper, by improving the way of assembly-level instrumentation, the basic block-sensitive instrumentation is changed to branch sensitive instrumentation, so that the control flow graph of the program is changed into a binary tree form, and non-random numbers are used to mark each instrumentation point, which is relatively well solved the problem of HASH collision. Experiments show that the propsosed method is effective, and since the improvement is transparent to the upper layer, it can be applied to various AFL-based grey-box fuzzing tools, thereby improving the efficiency of the fuzzing test.

    • Reconstruction method of blade 3D profile based on line-laser scanning

      DONG Jie, WANG Zong-Ping, OU Deng-Ying, CHEN Long-Qing, XIE Luo-Feng, YIN Guo-Fu

      2023,60(3):034001

      Abstract:

      As the core component of aero-engine, the blade plays a key role in its safety and reliability. The dimension and shape accuracy of the blade profile have always been strictly required in the process of blade machining and measuring. Thus, in this paper we propose a method for reconstructing the three-dimensional profile based on line-laser scanning. First, based on the developed four-axis blade measurement device, the rapid scanning and data acquisition of the blade profile are realized by combining the linear encoder and the line laser sensor. Then, a registration method based on the geometric features of the blade datum plane is further proposed to align the multi-view scanning data of blade profile, and the high precision reconstruction of the blade profile are achieved accordingly. Finally, a typical blade is taken as the experimental object for profile reconstruction experiment, and the profile reconstruction data is compared with the CMM measurement results from the same blade. The results show that the average deviation of cross-sections in blade profile is less than 0.040 mm and the standard deviation is less than 0.028mm. This demonstrates the accuracy and feasibility of the proposed method.

    • Comparison study of corrosion behavior between electron beam melting formed and forged Ti6Al4V alloys

      2023,60(3):034002

      Abstract:

      In this work, the electrochemical dissolution behavior of electron beam melting (EBM)-formed TC4 samples and conventionally forged TC4 in 3.5 wt% NaCl solution was investigated using an electrochemical workstation. The results show that the non-equilibrium microstructure of the EBM formed TC4 samples makes them exhibit different corrosion resistance compared to the conventionally forged TC4. the corrosion resistance of the EBM formed TC4 samples differs in different planes compared to the forged TC4, with the EBM horizontal plane being larger than the forged one, but the EBM vertical plane being smaller than the forged one. the anisotropy of the corrosion properties appearing in the vertical plane of the EBM formed TC4 samples is mainly caused by the β-columnar grain. In the process of corrosion, pitting preferentially occurs at α grain boundaries because of the higher grain boundary energy and the formation of porous passivation layers. This work is helpful to enrich the study of corrosion energy of TC4 alloy prepared by additive manufacturing in the field of aerospace titanium alloys.

    • Molecular dynamics study on oxidation mechanism of carbon-based ablative materials under high temperature

      LI Lei, LIU Xiao, ZHOU Shu-Guang, HE Zheng-Hua, JI Guang-Fu, GE Ni-Na

      2023,60(3):034003

      Abstract:

      Molecular dynamics simulations based on the self-consistent charge density-functional tight-binding (SCC-DFTB) method is used to study the oxidation mechanism of three models (defect-free, atomic-defect and pore-defect) of carbon-based ablative materials under high temperature. It is found that the reaction products at high temperature are mainly CO and CO2. The production process of CO mainly comes from decomposition of C-C bond in epoxy group. The formation of CO2 is relatively complex, mainly from fragmentation of small molecular clusters (C2O2, C3O1, C4O1). It is found that C-C bond is the main way of graphite oxidation reaction, and C-O bond is the controlling factor of CO and CO2 generation rate. In addition, the temperature, defects and holes of the system have important effects on the oxidation mechanism of graphite. By analyzing the oxidation reaction rate, the calculated activation energies of the three model oxidation reactions are 7.56, 2.4 and 1.6 kcal/mol, respectively. The model with atomic defects and holes corresponds to a low activation energy and a high oxidation reaction rate, while the case without defects associates with the lowest oxidation reaction rate due to the highest activation energy.

      GUO Jing-Jing, YUAN Chang-Chun, FU Kai, XUN Miao-Miao, MA Wen-Bing, WANG Zhi-Qiang, LI Zhi-Chun

      2023,60(3):035001

      Abstract:

      Curzerene is a natural product of terpene furans isolated from the curcuma rhizomes, which has various biological activities such as anti-inflammation, anti-cancer and anti-leishmaniasis. In this paper, commercially available (+)-verbenone (6) was utilized as chiral starting material to synthesize Curzerene in 5 steps with 34% total yield. A key ketone compound 4 was first obtained through a known three-step reaction. Then ketone 4 and 1,1-dimethoxyacetone underwent TiCl4-Et3N-mediated cyclization reaction to afford natural products isogermafurenolid (2) and its isomer 8-epi-isogermafurenolid (2′) in 56% and 20% yield, respectively. Finally, the target Curzerene was synthesized from 2 and 2′ with 82% yield by a one-pot reaction of DIBAL-H reduction and subsequent acid promoted dehydration.

      NIU Xian-Jun, BAI Yang, DU Yi-En

      2023,60(3):035002

      Abstract:

      Cuboid anatase TiO2 nanocrystals with co-exposed [111]-/{101} facets were synthesized by one-pot method under mild hydrothermal conditions (120~180 ?C) using layered titanate H1.07Ti1.73O4 as precursor and different amounts of HF as morphology-controlling agent. The crystal structure, morphology, microstructure, surface area, electronic states, optical properties and charge migration behavior of xHF-T180 (x = 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, 3.0 mL) anatase TiO2 nanocrystals were characterized, and their photocatalytic degradation of MB was evaluated. The results show that, compared with CM-TiO2 and other xHF-T180 anatase TiO2 nanocrystals, 2.5HF-T180 shows the highest k value (0.0165 min-1), which is 18.33, 1.99, 1.31, 1.46, 1.16, 1.27 and 1.34 times that of Blank (0.0009 min-1), CM-TiO2 (0.0083 min-1), 0.5HF-T180 (0.0126 min-1), 1.0HF-T180 (0.0113 min-1), 1.5HF-T180 (0.0142 min-1), 2.0HF-T180 (0.0130 min-1), and 3.0HF-T180 (0.0123 min-1), respectively. The highest photocatalytic activity of 2.5HF-T180 can be attributed to the synergistic effect of its smallest particle size, largest specific surface area, weakest fluorescent intensity and smallest electrical resistance. This study provides a new idea for the synthesis of anatase-type TiO2 nanocrystals with high photocatalytic performance for the treatment of organic dye wastewater.

    • Response of CARK5 kinase to ABA signaling in Arabidopsis

      LI Ke- Xuan, LI Xiao -Yi, WANG Ruo-Lin, YANG Yi

      2023,60(3):036001

      Abstract:

      In order to explore the post-translational modification of Arabidopsis abscisic acid (ABA) receptor, this study constructed overexpressing CARK5 and kinase-dead CARK5m (CARK5N250A) in the wild type and T-DNA mutant cark5 plants by genetic and physiological assays, to analyze the functions of CARK5 in ABA signaling. The results showed that CARK5 can promote ABA-mediated inhibition of seed germination, seedling cotyledon and primary root elongation, but the overexpression kinase-inactive CARK5m (CARK5N250A) has a similar phenotype to the mutant cark5. In addition, overexpressing CARK5 enhanced plant drought resistance and ABA-marked gene RAB18 expression. Taken together, these data suggest that CARK5 positively regulates the ABA signaling pathway by phosphorylation of ABA receptors.

      CHANG Kai-Wei, SHAO Xiao, YANG Tao, YU Jie, YU Jiang

      2023,60(3):036002

      Abstract:

      To explore the impact of pyrite slag heap on surrounding farmland, 61 soil samples were systematically collected from a pyrite slag heap and surrounding agricultural land in Southern Sichuan Province, and the contents of heavy metals (Cr, Ni, Cu, Zn, Cd, Pb, As, Hg) were determined, and the pollution levels and characteristics of the spatial distribution of eight heavy metals were analyzed. The sources of heavy metals were identified by correlation and principal component analysis, and the risk level of soil pollution was evaluated by a comprehensive ecological risk index and geo accumulation index. In the soil, the results showed that the contents of Cr, Cu and Cd of the study area exceeded the corresponding national standards, and the contents of Cr, Cd, Pb, and As were significantly higher than the background values, which were 1.56, 1.40, 1.45 and 2.89 times of the background values, respectively. The spatial distribution of Ni, Cu and Zn content was relatively uniform, while the spatial distribution of the other five heavy metals was relatively concentrated. The farmland soil around the mining area was at a medium ecological risk level (150

      ZHOU Lin, AI Ying-Wei

      2023,60(3):036003

      Abstract:

      In order to improve the understanding of the energy and nutrient limitation of soil microorganisms in the alpine region of western Sichuan, the soils at different altitudes (2969 m, 3280 m, 3697 m and 3992 m) in the alpine region of western Sichuan were used as the research object. By measuring soil physicochemical properties and extracellular enzyme activities, the distribution law of soil enzyme activity and enzyme stoichiometry along the altitude and its influencing factors were discussed. The results showed that: (1) The activities of β-1,4-glucosidase (BG), Cellobiohydrolase (CBH), β-1,4-N-acetylglucosaminidase (NAG), Leucine aminopeptidase (LAP) and Acid phosphatases (AP) showed a distribution pattern of first decreasing and then increasing with the increase of altitude. Specifically, the activities of carbon and phosphorus acquisition enzymes were the highest at 3992 m, and the lowest at 3280 m. The highest nitrogen acquisition enzyme activity was at 2969 m, and the lowest was at 3697 m. (2) Soil microorganisms at 3280 m were relatively limited by N and P, while those at the other three altitudes were relatively limited by C and P. (3) Soil ammonium nitrogen (NH+4-N), total nitrogen (TN), soil total carbon (TC), and soil nutrient stoichiometry were the key factors driving the changes in soil enzyme activities and their stoichiometry along the altitude. According to the results, the characteristics of soil enzyme activities in this study area were related to the availability of environmental resources.

    • Establishment and application of a low-leakage Tet-On inducible overexpression system based on the PiggyBac transposition system

      ZHANG Bai-Quan, LI Zhong-Han, YIN Yi-Ke

      2023,60(3):036004

      Abstract:

      In order to avoid the leakage expression of the Tet-on inducible expression system and to achieve easy, stable and efficient expression of exogenous gene when induced at a specific time, this study planned to add the destabilizing domain FK506-binding protein, regulated by the stable ligand Shield-1, to the N-terminal of the target gene to control its background expression at the protein level. To verify the performance of this system, the fluorescent protein TdTomato was used as the reporter gene in this study. The results of flow analysis showed that the leakage expression in the optimized system was reduced about 7 times compared with the original one at the protein level. This system was applied to the in vitro odontogenic induction system based on mouse embryonic stem cells. Under the synergistic effect of the inducible factor Dox and the stable ligand Shield-1, the induced overexpression of tooth development-related transcription factor Hand2 could improve the completion of odontogenic induction.

    • Spatial and temporal analysis on public opinion evolution of epidemic situation about novel coronavirus pneumonia based on micro blog data

      CHEN Xing Shu, CHANG Tian You, WANG Hai Zhou, ZHAO Zhi Long, ZHANG Jie

      2020,57(2):409-416

      Abstract:

      Relying on 60 thousand blogs and 15 thousand hot blog reviews in Sina micro-blog from January 1st to February 29th in 2020, this article launches the analysis of the public opinion to the topic about novel coronavirus pneumonia based on distributed crawler technology, distributed database system, SnowNLP sentiment analysis model and K-Means algorithm. This analysis can show visually the spatial and temporal evolution process of Internet public opinion in the events of this epidemic situation. On spatial dimension, the netizens' attitude towards this pneumonia epidemic has roughly gone through three periods. The first period appears in the shape of bigger fluctuation which presents as tension and anxiety. The second period appears in the shape of rising slowly which presents as unity and excitement. The third period appears in the shape of slight fluctuation which presents as confidence and stability. On the whole, it shows the emotional state that positive is greater than negative and Optimism is greater than pessimism. On spatial dimension, we find that the area which has the most serious epidemic has the most comments and the lowest emotional value through geographical statistical analysis.

    • Computational Jurisprudence: An emerging interdisciplinary branch

      ZHANG Ni, PU Yi-Fei

      2019,56(6):1187-1192

      Abstract:

      The application of state-of-the-art artificial intelligence to the law has led to a promising area of interdisciplinary research: computational jurisprudence. By investigating legal relationships through simulation and modeling with transforming the legal information analysis to real-time online intelligent system, computational jurisprudence is not simply to simulate the methods of natural science, but a deep integration of computational thinking and legal thought. With distributed real-time computing, computational jurisprudence aims to reveal the intrinsic essence behind legal system to improve the judicial efficiency, promote legislative feasibility and also reduce the conflicts in legal system.

    • Evolvement from Jurimetrics, computational law to cognitive law

      ZHANG Ni, PU Yi-Fei

      2021,58(2):020001

      Abstract:

      The paper discusses the impact of natural sciences such as artificial intelligence technology to Jurimetrics, computational law (or computational jurisprudence) and cognitive law (or cognitive jurisprudence) from the perspective of technological development and interdisciplinary. It first proposes the theory and definition of cognitive law, including its research scope, studying meanings and academic discipline, and teases out the relationships among Jurimetrics, computational law and cognitive law. To reduce the subjectivity and provide the objective reference for the vague expression in legal system, some quantitative methods, computational intelligence and cognitive intelligence are applied to legal system successively. However, legal information is open textured and semantic vagueness, and it is difficult to express all kinds of tacit knowledge, process knowledge and fuzzy knowledge by computer symbol system. Cognitive intelligence stresses to improve the ability of intelligent systems to understand data, express knowledge, reason logically and learn by themselves. Following the footsteps of technology, it will be the inevitable trend stepping from Jurimetrics and computational law to cognitive law. Cognitive law improves the understanding of legal rules and analysis of legal behavior, and enhances the interpretability of intelligent judgments by utilizing cognitive intelligence. As the sub-branch of cognitive social science, cognitive law will improve traditional legal theories, promote the deeply integration of the Common law system and the civil law system, and is expected to be a new interdisciplinary subject.

      QIAN Bo, MA Ting, SONG En-Bin

      2018,55(1):0007-0012

      Abstract:

      The well-known sensor selection issue is of great significance in wireless sensor network. We aim at selecting a subset of out of sensors to conduct the corresponding hypothesis test based on their observations such that the false alarm rate attains the minimum, which has been proved to be NP hard. In this paper, we relax the original problem to a tractable one and propose a new algorithm, which can achieve the KKT point. Moreover, compared with the existing algorithm, our algorithm is more efficient since it has lower computation complexity. Simulations also illustrate that the global optimum can be reached in most cases.

This paper focuses on the change of the tent maps number of vertices under iterations, and gives the formula for the number of vertices in the specific case of parameter a=0.5,b=(1+√5)/4 and then the formula of the number of n-period points is given when b=1.

    • The 6-element case of S_1-Frankl conjecture (I)

      HU Ze-Chun, LI Shi-Lun

      2020,57(1):11-26

      Abstract:

      The union-closed sets conjecture (Frankl's conjecture) says that for any nite union-closed family of nite sets, other than the family consisting only of the empty set, there exists an element that belongs to at least half of the sets in the family. Recently, two stronger versions of the Frankl's conjecture (S_1-Frankl conjecture and S_2-Frankl conjecture for short) were introduced and partial proofs were given. In particular, it was proved that S_1-Frankl conjecture holds if n<=5, where n is the number of all the elements in the family of sets.

      wang you le, Luo Maokang, DENG Ke

      2018,55(2):257-259

      Abstract:

      Itis well known that in quantum information quantum relative is monotonically decreasing under the completely positive and trace-preserving maps. For a new proposed sandwiched R\'enyi quantum relative, a map that is linear trace-preserving and whose Hilber-Schmidt adjoint map satisfies Schwarz inequality, monotonicity still holds. We give a new proof of monotonicity of sandwiched R\'enyi relative entropy for $\alpha\in[\frac{1}{2},1)$. The proof is based on complex interplotation techniques, which already has been used to prove monotonicity under trace-preserving and positive map for $\alpha\in(1,\infty)$.

      ZHANG Xiao-Yan, YUE Hong-Yun

      2018,55(4):667-672

      Abstract:

      Stochastic resonance and stochastic multi-resonance of a cancer growth model modulated by non-Gaussian noise and Gaussian noise are investigated in terms of the path integral approach and the adiabatic limit. The expression of signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is obtained. The numerical results indicate that the SNR exhibits stochastic multi-resonance behavior when the SNR is a function of the multiplicative noise intensity, additive noise intensity, or the parameter of the non-Gaussian noise q. Meanwhile, it is also shown that the cross-correlation intensity and the self-correlation time can enhance the phenomenon of stochastic resonance.

      WANG Chuan-Yi, REN Rui-Bin, DENG Ke

      2016,53(6):1183-1189

      Abstract:

      In this paper, stochastic resonance of an underdamped harmonic oscillator with random mass and driven by periodic modulated noise is investigated. The fluctuation of oscillator mass is modeled by a dichotomous noise while the internal noise is assumed to be Gaussian. Using the Shapiro-Loginov formula and the Laplace transform technique, exact expressions of first moment of the steady-state response and output of the system are presented. Then some simulations are implemented to study the dependence of long-time behavior of the first moment on variety of the system parameters. It is shown that the output amplitude non-monotonically depends on the signal frequency, the noise parameters and the system parameters, which indicates the occurrences of bona fide stochastic resonance, generalized stochastic resonance and parameter-induced stochastic resonance. Furthermore, based on the exact expressions it is demonstrated that interplay of the mass fluctuation and the periodic modulated noise can generate some novel cooperation effects, such as double-peak resonance as well as one-valley resonance.

      Abstract:

      Directly processing the track initiation and tracking of the points recorded in the radar point recorder of the three dimensional air traffic control system will generate a large number of false alarms and a large amount of calculation. When performing target tracking, the number of candidate point sets is huge is the main reason for the large amount of calculation in the target tracking process. Based on the dynamic adaptive DBSCAN clustering algorithm and the classic Kalman filter tracking algorithm, a hybrid dynamic adaptive DBSCAN clustering tracking algorithm is proposed in this paper to reduce the number of candidate point sets. Experiments have found that the number of invalid points is reduced and the track quality is improved Computing time decreases. Through the dynamic adaptive DBSCAN clustering tracking hybrid algorithm, it can quickly track the target detected by cnac radar once and form the target track, which can detect the black flight target in time and reduce the interference to the normal flight of civil aviation aircraft to the minimum.

      Abstract:

      In this paper, fractional-order memristor (fracmemristor), a novel basic element of brain-like computing, is discussed.The concept of memristor is extended from the conventional integer order to the fractional order, i.e. the fracmemristor. Fracmemristor is a compound word of fractional-order memristor, whose fractional impedance is fracmemristance. Accordingly, it is natural to think of a range of theoretical challenges: What is the relationship of fracmemristor to the conventional fractor and the famous memristor? What are the interpolation properties between the memristor and the capacitor or inductor? Where is the location of fracmemristor in the Chua's circuit periodic table? What are the general expressions for fracmemristances of arbitrary-order ideal capacitive and inductive fracmemristors? What are the measuring unit and physical dimensionality of fracmemristor? What are the fingerprint features for identifying fracmemristor? How to implement arbitrary fractional-order memristor effectively in the form of analog circuit with ordinary memristor, capacitor and inductor? This paper makes preliminary discussions on the above challenging theoretical problems based on abundant prior exploratory findings. The fracmemristor solves the problem that fractor is difficult to realize the function of memory charge or magnetic flux. As a basic circuit element, the fracmemristor can be applied to the design of chaotic system, neural circuit and neural network circuit.

      2020,57(1):66-72

      Abstract:

      According to the defects of the classic text matching model in the question and answer system, a question based importance weighting network for answer selection is proposed. At present, the existing answer selection model generally matches the question sentence and the answer sentence directly, ignoring the influence of noise words in the question sentence and the answer sentence on the match. To solve this problem, the self attention mechanism is firstly used to modify the weight of each word in the sentence to generate a "clean" question sentence vector. The word level interaction matrix is then used to capture the fine grained semantic information between the question sentence and the answer sentence. It weakens the influence of noise words on the correct answer. Finally, the multi window CNN is used to extract the feature information to obtain the prediction result. The comparison experiments on benchmark datasets show that the performance of the BIWN model in the answer selection task is better than the mainstream answer selection algorithm, and the MAP value and MRR value are improved by about 0.7%~6.1%.Finally, the multi-window CNN is used to extract the feature information to obtain the prediction result. The comparison experiments on benchmark datasets show that the performance of the BIWN model in the answer selection task is better than the mainstream answer selection algorithm, and the MAP value and MRR value are improved by about 0.7%-6.1%.

      Abstract:

      Hydraulic rock drilling rig plays an important role in modern tunneling construction. The existing hydraulic drilling rig is completed by the operator when locating the hole position. The order of locating holes and the time to search holes is not optimized, which results in time waste and low efficiency. In view of the above problems, in this paper, the multi node motion and the time of locating hole path of long arm multi joint intelligent rock drill are optimized for large tunnel section and complex hole system. The innovative research is as follows: by the rock drilling tunnel form and excavation mode analysis, as well as the explosion hole parameters setting, a collision free planning is proposed for the left and right manipulator drilling tasks. At the same time, the total change time of each joint variable of the multi joint manipulator is used as the optimization objective function. The ant colony algorithm is used to optimize the objective function, and the optimized hole finding path with the shortest hole positioning time is obtained, which improves the positioning and finding efficiency of the hydraulic rock drilling rig mechanical arm.

      2020,57(1):57-65

      Abstract:

      In the cloud environment, traditional physical servers are gradually being replaced by various virtual machines.The storage space, occupied by virtual machine images hosted in cloud data centers, has increased dramatically.How to efficiently manage these image files has become one of research hotspots in the cloud computing.Due to the large number of blank duplicate blocks inside the virtual machine image, which leads to a high degree of internal redundancy of the image.Second, different virtual machine images may run the same operating system and applications, so that there is more duplicate data between the images.For a large number of virtual machine images, the traditional deduplication strategy will generate huge time overhead, and will consume huge memory space and CPU resources, which will affect the performance of the data center.This paper proposes a multi level deduplication method based on improved Simhash algorithm for massive virtual machine images, which divides a complete image file into operating system image segment and application data image segment, extracts the feature values of each part, and uses DBSCAN clustering algorithm for grouping the image segments.In this way, the image segments with higher similarity are grouped into one class, thereby decomposing the global deduplication into smaller internal weights with higher repetition rate, and the fingerprint index data is completely stored in the memory.This deduplication algorithm greatly reduces the number of disk I/Os and shortens the deduplication time.

      Abstract:

      In this paper, an affine invariant feature matching algorithm is based on sparse features into dense features is proposed, in which sparse features include coordinates, scale, affine parameters etc., dense features include information of Gaussian kernel, area descriptor. Based on the Affine-SIFT algorithm, this algorithm improves the shortcomings of sparse feature extraction in the feature extraction phase. Because the dense information can only extract the feature when the sparse parameter is full of enough detection conditions, it can not match the characteristic (including sparse and dense parameters) that can be matched, in this paper, we will reconstruct the sparse features by using the sparse features to construct the new simulation images, and further extract the sparse features on the basis of the simulated images, and can detect the matching features that can not be detected in the original image, Feature set the probability of matching, to improve the correct match the number of goals. Compared with the ASIFT, the algorithm, in this paper, which can significantly increase the number of correct feature matching points is proved by experiments. In addition to the extending method of the ASIFT. The proposed method can also be used to extend other feature extraction and matching methods with sufficiently parameters of sparse feature, and apply to precisely target recognition, target classification and 3D reconstruction etc.

      2016,53(1):98-104

      Abstract:

      In Wyner-Ziv video coding system, correct transimission and accurate decoding of key frames would affect the whole system performance directly. However, in wireless communication system, data loss of key frames often happened due to network failure, network congestion or other reasons. Data lossy seriously affect the decoding quality. This paper presents a novel solution for the data loss of key frames under the conditions of feedback channel. In the solution, by sending some extra Wyner-Ziv code streams along with the origin key frames, errors of the damaged image at the decoder can be high-efficiently corrected and restored. Simulation results show that the proposed solution could reconstruct the damaged image effectively, and the quality could be improved up to 20dB compared with typical error concealment method when the data loss ratio is 1%~20%. Furthermore, R-D performance of key frames could be improved even if the data loss ratio is very high.

      To overcome the shortcomings of current SIP safety scheme, such as the incapability to detect the wiretap and the vulnerability of the classical key system in case of quantum computation attack, this paper proposed a novel user authentication and key agreement scheme that combined quantum safe communication methods and SIP protocol. The SIP server prepared the three particle W states and distributed two of them to the SIP users. The random inserted particles were measured first to detect the wiretap; then the rest of the W states were operated and measured to authenticate the user. After that, every particle of the W states was measured randomly and the two SIP users got the initial conversation key according to the results of the effective measurements.

Therefore, family homology analysis of malwares can help to study of evolutionary trend and traceability of malwares. In this paper, starting from API call graphs of malwares and combined with Graph Convolutional Networks (GCN), we proposed a similarity calculation and family clustering model for malwares.

Then, we select key API functions by its contribution to the malware families and the API call graphs of malwares are constructed. We use GCN and Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) as the model of the malware similarity calculation which the inputs are the API call graphs. Finally, we use DBSCAN algorithm to cluster malwares. The experimental results show that the proposed method can achieve 87.3% accuracy and can effectively cluster malware families.

      2016,53(2):326-330

      Abstract:

      A superstrate is able to significantly increase the gain of an antenna, and this superstrate based technology has been widely used. However, the studies about the effects of superstrates on the return loss of the antenna are limited. In this work, taking homogenous dielectric superstrates and a probe-fed microstrip antenna as examples, using numerical simulations, the effect of superstrates on the return loss of an antenna is investigated. The simulation results show, by proper design of some structural parameters, such as the distance between the superstrate and the antenna, the feeding location of the antenna and so on, the dielectric superstrate can improve both the gain and the impedance bandwidth. A prototype is fabricated and measured, and the measured results shows that it has a gain of 14.5 dBi and a |S11|<-10dB impedance bandwidth of 11.19% , which verifies the simulations.

      LIU Miao-Miao, GUO Jing-Feng, MA Xiao-Yang, CHEN Jing

      2018,55(1):0089-0098

      Abstract:

      In order to divide communities accurately in weighted networks, a hierarchical clustering method IEM based on the similarity and modularity is proposed. Firstly, the similarity of the two nodes is defined based on attributes of their common neighbors. Then, the most closely related nodes are clustered fastly according to their similarity to form the initial community and expand it. Lastly, these communities are merged with the goal of maxmizing the modularity so as to optimize division re sults. The algorithm achieves more reasonable and effective community division for weighted network by three steps of initializing, expanding and merging communities. Correctness and effectiveness of the algorithm are verified through experiments on many weighted networks using weighted modularity as evaluation index. Results show that IEM is superior to weighted CN, weighted AA and weighted RA. Moreover, it can achieve the higher quality of community division in weighted networks compared with CRMA algorithm.

      Abstract:

      The public data sets in named entity recognition research are often class label imbalanced,which limits the further performance improvement based on statistical learning model methods. Aiming at the above problems, a data class label balancing method based on genetic algorithm is proposed, which modifies the fitness function and gene combination rules tried to balance the dataset by generating new samples to augment the original dataset. In order to verify the validity, the proposed method was compared with the balanced undersampling method and the random oversampling method by using the Bi LSTM CRF model on the CoNLL 2003 and JNLPBA datasets respectively. The results show that the proposed method increased the recall rate by 3.26% and the F1 value by 1.70% on the CoNLL2003 dataset, and the recall rate by 2.44% and the F1 value by 1.03% on the JNLPBA dataset. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method can effectively alleviate the class imbalance and improves the effect of named entity recognition.

      ZHAO Zhi-Hao, WANG Zhi-Min, SUN Yang

      2017,54(6):1202-1210

      Abstract:

      It is known that there is a contradiction between range estimation and velocity estimation due to the influence of pulse repetition frequency (PRF) in traditional phased-array (PA) radar. In this paper, a joint unambiguous angle, range and velocity estimation method is proposed for bi-static multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) radar with frequency diverse array (FDA). Owing to the FDA, there is a little frequency increment between the arrays and the transmit steering matrix carries angle, range even velocity information. Consider the range-angle coupling in transmit steering matrix, a subarray-based transmitted waveform and decoupling approach are designed. Utilizing the ESPRIT algorithm and ambiguity resolve methods based on FDA, the direction-of-departure (DOD), direction-of-arrival (DOA), range and velocity parameters are estimated unambiguously. Additionally, Cramér-Rao bounds (CRB) for these parameters are derived and the performance of this radar is analyzed. Simulation results indicates the validity of the proposed method.

      2020,57(1):103-112

      Abstract:

      To solve the problems on high nonlinearity in spectral features in hyperspectral image classification, a classification algorithm, based on multi layer perceptron convolutional layer and batch normalization layer improved convolutional neural network in spectral domain processing, is proposed to improve the nonlinear feature extraction ability. By constructing a seven layer network structure, the algorithm implements a multi layer local sensing structure, analyzes the spectral information pixel by pixel, distinguishes the spectral information of different targets, takes the full spectrum segment set as input, discards the spatial information, and uses the momentum gradient descent training. The algorithm trains multi layer local perceptual convolutional neural networks to realize the extraction and classification of spectral features of different target objects. In the experiment, two sets of hyperspectral remote sensing images are used for comparative analysis. Taking the Pavia University data set as an example, in the case of 3 600 training samples, the test set is 1 800 samples, the accuracy of the proposed method is 9023% and the accuracy of the LeNet 5 and Linear SVM method are 8794% and 9000% respectively. In the case of 21 000 training samples, the test set is all samples, the accuracy is 9723%, 9664% and 9240% respectively for the proposed method, LeNet 5 and Linear SVM method. The experimental results show that the proposed method is superior to the traditional neural network in the case of small training set, which can effectively extract the data features, and is superior to SVM algorithm for the small sample classification in terms of accuracy and computational cost. In the large scale training set, this method shows good learning ability and is superior to LeNet 5 in classification accuracy. The multi layer local perceptual network structure proposed in this paper enhances the learning ability of nonlinear features, it can utilize hyperspectral images much more effectively than traditional SVM and general deep learning networks, both in small sample classification and large sample classification. The spectral domain information of the pixel by pixel point can effectively improve the classification accuracy.

      2018,55(1):0081-0088

      Abstract:

      As a new and efficient heating method, microwave has a great advantage in chemical catalysis and material processing. However, the non-uniformity of microwave heating has limited its application in the chemical industry. A multi-mode microwave cavity with moving metal wall is designed in this paper. In the heating process, the electric field distribution of the cavity is constantly changing by moving the metal wall of the cavity, thereby achieving the purpose of improving the heating uniformity. In the simulation, by using the moving mesh method, the simulation of the whole heating process can be realized by a continuous algorithm. The accuracy of the algorithm is verified by comparing with the electric field distribution of the cavity and reflection coefficient of the port with that of the discrete position. By comparing the temperature coefficient of variation (COV) of the heated material, it can be considered that the heating uniformity of the microwave multimode cavity with a moving metal wall is increased by 18%-38% compared to that of the fixed size multimode cavity. Meanwhile, we analyzed the effect of different metal wall movement modes on the heating effect, and concluded that one can choose the metal wall movement mode according to the properties of the material and other requirements.

      Wangmei, Long Hua, Shao Yubin, Du Qingzhi

      2020,57(1):96-102

      Abstract:

      Many scholars have made some achievements in aggregation analysis of terrorist events by using the data set of "Global Terrorism Research Database"(GTD) with game theory, k nearest neighbor method and support vector machine. However, data sparsity and high dimensional multi redundancy are not well considered in the previous research, which may lead to low accuracy of clustering classification. This paper proposes a TFM classification model based on "Minimal redundancy maximal relevancy" (mRMR) combined with " Factorization Machines " (FM), in which the incremental search method is used to find approximately optimal features to address the high dimensional multi redundancy and the data sparsity is tackled with FM method. TFM model is then used to make quantitative classification on the pre processed terrorist attack data. The experimental results show the proposed TFM model, in terms of Matthews correlation coefficient (MCC), is increased by 49.9%, 2.5% and 2.3% respectively compared with naive Bayes (NB), support vector machine (SVM) and logistic regression (LR). The comparative result demonstrates that TFM model is feasible to some extent.

      YANG Jing, LI Peng-Cheng, YAN Jun-Jie, ZHOU Xiao-Jun

      2018,55(1):0073-0080

      Abstract:

      To meet the need for Quality of Experience(QoE), the User Equipment(UE) has to handover frequently in the coverage area between Macro cell and Femto cell, with the increase of total handover times, the UE will occupy some physical resources continuously, resulting in lower system throughput. Relational intimacy degree handover algorithm of Long Term Evolution(LTE) heterogeneous network is proposed, which estimates the relational intimacy between UE and Femto cell by gathering the historical information of the former access to the latter, then sorts the priority ordering for UE waited for handover by using this attribute, and makes the handover decision by taking the receiving signal strength, speed and Femto cell bandwidth available into account. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can reduce the total handover times obviously, avoid the unnecessary handover times and improve the system throughput effectively.

      LI Yong-Feng, GUO Qing-Gong

      2017,54(4):742-746

      Abstract:

      A ferrite reflector-based optimization design of magnetic resonant wireless power transfer (WPT) system to improve transmission efficiency is proposed. The WPT system composed of four resonators is considered as a two-port network to deduce the transfer efficiency. Then a magnetic resonant WPT system whose receiving and transmitting coils have a diameter of 30cm is designed and manufactured. The measured transmission efficiency is above 90% at the distance of 30cm while decreases to about 40% when the distance increases to 60cm. Measured results are in good agreements with simulated ones. Based on this WPT system, two different ferrite reflectors are introduced to improve the transmission efficiency. Results show that the different size of magnetic reflectors may have positive or negative effects on transmission efficiency. By optimizing the ferrite reflector, the maximum 15% improvement of transmission efficiency is obtained at the distance range of 30cm to 90cm.

      zhaowenjing, chen wen jing, su xian yu

      2016,53(1):110-117

      Abstract:

      Abstract: One of the key steps in 3D optical shape measurement based on the structured light projection is the phase unwrapping. The unwrapping issue about the complicated phase map is also the difficult step of the methods. The temporal phase unwrapping provide a useful tool to obtain the continuous phase map from the complicated wrapped phase map. Along the time direction, the temporal phase unwrapping is independently carried out from a 3D distribution demodulated from grating fringes with different pitches projected on the tested object. Therefore the problem of the error propagation in 2D phase unwrapping algorithm can be avoided. Followed by the comparison among the typical temporal phase unwrapping methods, including the negative exponential method, three pitches unwrapping method, three pitches heterodyne unwrapping method and its improved technique, a segmentation curve fitting method is used to improves the phase calculation accuracy. The computer simulations and experiments are carried out to verify that the phase error is deduced greatly through the segmentation curve fitting.

      LI Ji-Hong, ZHENG Xing-Rong, PENG Chang-Ning

      2016,53(1):131-137

      Abstract:

      By using ab initio self-consistent field Hartree-Fork methods and atomic clusters expanding theory and employing Gamess program, two- and three-body interaction energies and the equation of state for solid argon in fcc crystal have been quantificationally calculated at the neighboring atomic distance R=2.40 -4.00 Å under high pressure. In addition, the convergence and truncation of atomic energy multi-body expansion are analyzed. It is found that two-body contribution to the cohesive energy is positive, while the three-body contribution is negative in solid argon under high pressure. At high pressure, only the consideration of the two-body contribution will overestimate the cohesive energy, hence it is necessary to introduce the three-body negative effects. The phenomenon of the experiment under 80GPa can be explained by considering the three-body potential.

      GUO Xiao-Ting, LI Peng

      2016,53(1):124-130

      Abstract:

      When studying the quantum Ising chain in a transverse field, we usually transform the spin operators to fermion operators by applying the Jordan-Wigner transformation,i.e.we take it for granted that the spin model and corresponding fermionic model are equivalent naively. But deliberate treatment could reveal that the equivalence accompanies some delicate conditions.Redundant degrees of freedom should be projected out carefully, especially for finite length of chain. In this paper, we compare the two models in detail so as to find the conditions of equivalence of them,including the interaction, the boundary conditions, and odevity of the number of lattice sites.We also exemplify in detail how to project out the redundant degrees of freedom for the fermionic representation.

The composition, morphology, microstructure and optical property of the sample were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD).The results showed that the Zn1-xMnxS (x = 0,0.01,0.03,0.05,0.07,0.10) nanoparticles were spherical hexagonal structure of nanocrystalline, uniform particle size between 15 ~ 20nm. At room temperature, using the UV excitation wavelength is 350nm stimulate Zn1-xMnxS nanoparticles. Blue light emission which is produced by transition between shallow donor level and manganese t2 level can be obtained. Luminous intensity with the increasing amount of manganese-doped increased decreased after the first.And emission peaks have a mobile with the change of manganese-doped content. The reason may be related to sulfur vacancies which influence shallow donor level of ZnS. The proportion of zinc-manganese has an impact on the amount of sulfur vacancies and level position.

      WANG Hai-Yan, YANG Bing-Fang, WANG Biao, SHI Rui-Li

      2017,54(4):781-784

      Abstract:

      The structural properties of XeF2 in the pressure range from 0 to 80 GPa are studied by plane-wave pseudopotential density functional theory method. The calculated values are in agreement with the experimental data. Based on the calculated elastic constants of XeF2 under different pressures, the I4/mmm structure of XeF2 is confirmed to be stable in the pressure range from 0 to 80 GPa. The band gap of XeF2 at different pressure is calculated and the band gap is found to decrease with the increase of pressure. When the pressure is greater than 10 GPa the band gap of XeF2 increases linearly with the increase of pressure, which indicates that XeF2 transforms from the insulator to semiconductor and has more and more strong metallic with the increase of pressure.

      Abstract:

      We employ the first-principles plane wave method in the frame of density functional theory (DFT) to investigate the equilibrium lattice structure, the mechanic, thermodynamic and electronic properties of CuAlSe2 compound. The lattice constants, the bulk modulus B0 and its pressure derivative B0’ are calculated. Based on the quasi-harmonic Debye model, we also obtain thermal expansion coefficient. It is noteworthy that the variation tendencies of these parameters are investigated detailed with pressure. In addition, we also calculate the elastic constants of CuAlSe2 compound. Results show that the elastic constants C11、C33、C12 and C13 increase with increasing pressure, whereas the influences of pressure on elastic constant C44 and C66 are not obvious. The calculated elastic constants satisfy the hecriterion of mechanical until the pressure grows to more than 15GPa, which suggests the structure phase transition of CuAlSe2 may be happened. We also investigate the shear sound velocity VS, longitudinal sound velocity VL, and Debye temperature ΘE from our elastic constants, as well as the thermodynamic properties from quasi-harmonic Debye model. We obtain the dependence between the heat capacity Cv and pressure, and the same as thermal expansion coefficient α. At last, the pressure dependences of band structures and density of states are also investigated, which shows that the value of TDOS decreases with the increase of the pressure.

      AN Xin-You, ZENG Ti-Xian, REN Wei-Yi, WU Wei-Dong

      2017,54(4):791-798

      Abstract:

      The structural phase transition, elastic and thermodynamic properties of NaH were investigated by the plane-wave pseudopotential method within the density functional theory. The equilibrium lattice parameters a0 , elastic constants Cij, bulk modulus B0 and it’s derivative B0′ were calculated. The results are consistent with the experimental and theoretical data. From the usual condition of equal enthalpy, the phase transition of NaH from B1 to B2 phase occurs at 30.5 GPa with a volume collapse of about 4.5%, consistent with the experimental (29.3±0.9GPa) and calculated (37.0 GPa) results. The static finite strain technique was used to calculate elastic constants Cij at the different pressures. Furthermore, the elastic wave velocities, Debye temperature Θ and elastic anisotropic factors of NaH were also investigated in detail. Through the quasi-harmonic Debye model, in which the phononic effects were considered, the thermodynamic properties such as the specific heat capacity and thermal expansion coefficient of NaH were obtained in the whole pressure range from 0 to 50 GPa and temperature range from 0 to 1500 K.

    • First-principles calculation on the electronic structures and optical transmittance of Al2O3 codoped with Co-Mo

      FANG Wen-Yu, WANG Xiao-Wen, ZHENG Qin, GAO Shen

      2020,57(1):135-139

      Abstract:

      The electronic structures and optical properties of intrinsic, Co, Mo doped and Co-Mo codoped Al2O3 compounds are calculated by using first-principles plane-wave ultrasoft pseudopotential method based on the density functional theory. The results show that the binding energies of Mo single doping and Co-Mo co-doped Al2O3 are low and easy to synthesize. Both Co and Mo dopings belong to the n-type doping, which can enhance the carrier concentration of the doping system, and thus improving the conductivity of Al2O3. The impurity levels of the doped system are mainly composed of co-3d state electron and mo-4d state electron,which are the intrinsic factors that affect the optical properties of doped Al2O3. After doping, the absorption spectrum is redshifted and the optical properties change mainly in a low energy range. The transmittance of the Al2O3 film in the range of 200~800 nm is about 92%. The transmittances of the Al2O3 doped by Mo single and co-doped by Co-Mo are as high as 93~98% in the band of 600~780 nm. In the short-wave ultraviolet region of 200~280 nm, the transmittance of Co single doping can be as high as 95%. Therefore, three doped Al2O3 can be used to prepare various optical transmission films.

      2020,57(1):113-117

      Abstract:

      In quantum chromatic dynamics (QCD) theory, Gell-Mann-Oakes-Renner (GMOR) is a low-order approximate identity which associates with quark condensation, meson mass and pion decay constant at zero temperature. In this paper, according to the QCD efficient theory and the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio (NJL) model, based on the two-flavor NJL model and the Proper Time Regularization (PTR), we derive the temperature dependence of quark condensation and the temperature dependence of quark mass in Quark condensation at finite temperature, and try to study the establishment of GMOR relation under this temperature condition. The results show that near zero temperature, the GMOR equation is valid within the allowable range of error, but with the increase of temperature, beyond a certain limit, the equation is no longer valid, and the deviation between the two sides of the equation is increasing.

      The generations of the high-order harmonic and the attosecond pulse from He+ ion driven by the chirped pulse combined with the unipolar pulse have been numerically investigated. The results show that by preparing the initial state as the coherent superposition of the ground and the first excited states of He+ ion, the harmonic yield is enhanced by 6 orders of magnitude in comparison with the single ground initial state case. Further, by introducing the laser chirp and the unipolar controlling pulse, the cutoff energy of harmonic spectrum is remarkably enhanced, and the interference structure of harmonic is also reduced. Further, with the introduction of the spatial inhomogeneous effect, the harmonic cutoff can be further extended, resulting in a super-bandwidth of 320 eV. By superposition of harmonics, three attosecond X-ray pulses with durations from 45 as to 48 as can be obtained, which is 5 ~ 6 orders of magnitude improvement in comparison with the single ground initial state case.

      2016,53(1):138-144

      Abstract:

      This paper adopted the LANL2DZ pseudopotential basis set and B3LYP method to calculate the microstructure and electronic properties of HgmSen(m=1,2,3,n=1,2) molecules and molecular ion clusters. Meanwhile, it utilized the time-dependent density functional theory to calculate the absorption spectra, thus obtaining the ground state structure, electronic properties, binding energy, energy gap, dipole moments and other microscopic properties. Then it analyzed the frontier molecular orbital characteristics, identified all the harmonic vibration mode and absorption spectroscopic properties. The results show that: when m+n=1~3, the linear and angular types are the stable geometry with ground state; when m + n = 4 ~ 5, the ring type is the stable geometry with ground state, besides, compared with other molecular clusters, HgSe2 molecular cluster have the greatest stability, binding energy and the minimal energy gap. HgmSen(m=1,2,3,n=1,2) molecules and molecular ion clusters have better electron donors, receptors and other active sites, that is, great electrical conductivity. The maximum absorption wavelength λmax of each cluster with different composition lacks of regularity, but for the molecular clusters with the same composition and its corresponding positive and negative ions, there appears significant red shift or blue shift. The results could provide theoretical reference for the further experimental and applied research, and it is conducive to studying the nature of experiments as well as certain laws of massive condensed matter.

      2020,57(1):140-146

      Abstract:

      The coordination polymers ([Dy(TZI)(H2O)4]•4H2O (1) and [La(HTZPI)(HC2O4)(H2O)3]•H2C2O4 (2)) have been synthesized by involving the bifunctional ligands (5-tetrazolylisophthalic acid (H3TZI) and 5-(4-(1H-tetrazolyl) phen) isophthalic acid (H3TZPI)) as linkers coordinating with rare earth metal ions (Dy3+/La3+). The using synthesis methods are hased on solvothermal synthesis and slow solvent evaporation. Crystal structures are characterized by X-ray single crystal diffraction, which show that the two compounds correspond to one-dimensional double-stranded chain and two-dimensional layer structure, respectively. It is notable that for this bifunctional ligand the tetrazolyl group is invalid when it coordinates with rare earth metal centers. Meanwhile, the thermal stabilities and the luminescent properties of them are investigated.

    • Nonlinear dielectric behavior study of chemical reactions in a strong electric field

      HONG Tao, TANG Zheng-Ming, ZHU Hua-Cheng, LAN Jun-QIng, HUANG Ka-Ma

      2017,54(1):131-134

      Abstract:

      In the presence of a strong electric field, novel phenomena always happen in chemical reactions, including the change of chemical reaction rate and the shifting of chemical equilibria. However, the mechanism is still unknown. This paper studies the interactions between chemical reaction systems and strong steady electric fields. Based on the theory of molecule reorientation, the modified Smoluchowski equation is expanded by the Legendre polynomials. The general expression of polarization is derived by considering the second-order nonlinear response. The nonlinear variation is also discussed through a simple isomerization reaction. The result shows that the ratio between the second-order nonlinear term and the polarization is proportional to the electric field. Meanwhile, the condition for which the result applies is also discussed.

      ZHANG Li-Yuan, LIU Yi-Wu, ZHOU Da-Li, YAO Qian-Qian

      2017,54(6):1275-1280

      Abstract:

      H2TiO3-lithium adsorbent was loaded on cordierite-based ceramic foams by the sol-gel process. The adsorption and elution of Li+ by the obtained samples were studied with the ion exchange columns via the dynamic process. The effects of liquid flow speed, Li+ concentration and single column/multi columns on the adsorption capacity and enrichment factor of Li+ were studied. The results indicate that it needs a long time for the lithium adsorbent loaded on ceramic foams to reach the leakage, and the adsorbent has a high operational adsorption capacity. In a certain range, flow rate of the eluent does not affect enrichment factor of Li+ apparently. The adsorbent does not have the ability to enrich Li+ with a high concentration. However, it is capable for the adsorbent to enrich a low level of Li+. The enrichment factor of Li+ can at least reach 26.55 times by adding hydrochloric acid to adjust pH of the effluent liquid to equal to that of the original eluent and using the obtained liquid as the eluent repeatedly.

      2017,54(4):815-821

      Abstract:

      In this paper, experimental study on static absorption was carried out for Alashan clay rock on Inner Mongolia. To explore the factors which may influence absorption characteristic of U(Ⅵ) on clay rock, including contact time, U(Ⅵ) initial concentration, solid-liquid ratio, pH value, ionic type and ionic concentration. The following results are obtained. The absorption rate of U(Ⅵ) on Alashan clay rock in Inner Mongolia is quite fast with adsorption equilibrium achieved in 24 hours. The optimum adsorption ratio is 1:200, and the optimum adsorption concentration is 160 μg•mL-1.The absorption capacity of clay rock was enlarged with the increasing of pH value. When pH value is at 8, the ability of absorption reaches the best. The absorption capacity of Uranium is largely hindered by Ca2+、CO32- and HCO3-, which have a great effect on the absorption ability of U(Ⅵ). The distribution coefficients of K+、Na+、Cl-、NO3-、SO42- can be changed with the change of ionic concentration, The surface adsorption of U(Ⅵ) on clay rock is dominated by inner-sphere complexation. The studies indicate the adsorption behavior of U(Ⅵ) on clay rock has a great significance on settling high level radioactive waste in China.

      Abstract:

      In this work, the electronic structures, charge density differenceand optical properties of Si and C codoped anatase TiO2 are studied by using the plane-wave ultrasoft pseudopotential method of density functional theory (DFT). The calculated results reveal that C-Si-codoped anatase TiO2 results in band gap narrowing that increases the probability of electronic transition from the impurity energy levels to the conduction band (about 1.7eV), then improves the solar energy utilization, the existence of impurity energy levels in the forbidden gap reduces the carrier transition energy. The C-Si-codoped TiO2 has been helpful for enhancing the absorption coefficient under visible-light region, especially, among the three models, the third model exhibits the largest value of absorption coefficient under visible-light region.

    • Study on the Interaction between Potassium Dehydroandrograpolide Succinate with Bovine Serum Albumin by Spectroscopic Methods

      LIU Li, CHENG Fei-Xiang

      2017,54(2):351-356

      Abstract:

      Dehydroandrograpolide Succinate (PDS) is a drug, widely used to treat viral pneumonia, viral upper respiratory tract infection such as anti-inflammatory drugs, known as the “Chinese medicine antibiotics”. Herein, Under the optimal conditions,fluorescence and absorption spectroscopy were used to study the interaction of PDS with bovine serum albumin (BSA) and effects of metal ions at different temperatures. The rate constant (Kq), apparent quenching constant (Ksv), binding constant (KA) and static fluorescence quenching association constant (KLB) and binding site number(n) were calculated using Stern-Volmer, Lineweaver–Burk and Double logarithm equations. The results show that PDS is able to bind to BSA. The probable quenching mechanism of BSA by PDS was mainly static quenching due to the formation of a PDS-BSA complex. The results of thermodynamic parameters indicate that electrostatic force plays the main role in the binding process and the binding process was spontaneous. The obtained data for binding sites of n approximately equal to 1 indicated that there was a single class of binding site for the BSA with PDS. The primary binding site for PDS was located at sub-domain ⅡA and ⅢA of BSA and near by tyrosine residue. There was almost no cooperative effect. The results obtained from synchronous fluorescence showed that the interaction between BSA and PDS caused the conformational changes of BSA. Pb2+, Mn2+, Ni2+and Cu2+ competed with the interaction of PDS with BSA, increasing medical effectiveness. Cr3+ promoted on interaction and prolonged drug effect time. The obtained results not only provided a theoretical basis for revealing the pharmacokinetics and further research on development of new anti virus herbs drugs.

      2017,54(3):585-594

      Abstract:

      Carbapenems, used in clinical treatment of multi-drug resistance bacterial infection, can be hydrolyzed by Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemases, which weaken the treatment effect of gram negative bacterial infection. It’s an important means of improving the clinical efficiency of these antibiotics to develop novel, potent and specific Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase inhibitors. And β-lactamase inhibitor protein can competitively inhibits Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemases. The movement patterns of complex involved in Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase and β-lactamase inhibitor protein are analyzed by coarse-grained models. The results indicate the movement patterns of Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase change a lot after it is inhibited by β-lactamase inhibitor protein. Finally, the binding modes between the series of cyclic boronic acid β-lactamase inhibitors and Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase are released by molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulation, and explained the relationship between the recognition mechanism and conformation-inhibition activity of these inhibitors from the angle of hydrogen bonds and energy. This research provides a theoretical basis of the subsequent design of the inhibitor based on the Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase structure.

      2017,54(2):364-370

      Abstract:

      The pyrolysis characteristics and kinetics of fluoroether rubber in air and nitrogen flow were studied by thermogravimetric analysis at five different heating rates. The kinetic parameters of the pyrolysis process were calculated using the method of Flynn-Wall-Ozawa and the mechanism of reaction were investigated using the method of Popescu. The results suggested that as the heating rates increasing, the pyrolysis temperature of the sample is moved to be higher. There is only one peak in DTG curves. The sample is more stable under nitrogen flow and the pyrolysis process of it is promoted by oxygen. It was found that the average value of the activity energy in air is 172.5kJ/mol, while 260.9kJ/mol in nitrogen. The pyrolysis process in air are well described by the model of Three dimension (R3) between 340°C and 370°C, by the model of Ginstling-Brounshtein (G-B) between 370°C and 380°C, and by the model of Zhuravlev (Zh) between 380°C and 400°C. While the thermal decomposition process in nitrogen are well described by the model of Ginstling-Brounshtein (G-B) between 400°C and 430°C, by the model of Three dimension (R3) between 430°C and 460°C.

    • Study on the adsorption of rare earth metal cerium ions (IV) by pectin

      ZHANG Li-Yuan, CHEN Qi, Liu Yi-wu, ZHOU Da-Li

      2017,54(4):807-814

      Abstract:

      The adsorption of rare earth metal cerium ions by low fat pectin was determined. The effects of the adsorption time, pH of the cerium ion solution, adsorption temperature, dosage of pectin and concentration of cerium ions on the adsorption capacity of pectin were investigated. The adsorption process was analyzed by the Langmuir and Freundlich models. Using the adsorption isotherm, the related thermodynamic and kinetic parameters were calculated, and infrared spectrum analysis was performed. The results indicate that the variables studied significantly affect the adsorption of cerium ions by pectin and that the infrared spectra before and after adsorption are apparently different, implying that a chemical reaction may have occurred in the adsorption process. The Freundlich equation is better suited to describe the adsorption process compared to the Langmuir equation. The adsorption process is best described by a pseudo-first order kinetics equation. Enthalpy and entropy differences are the driving forces of the adsorption process.

      TAN Xiong, LIU Xian-Bo, BAI Hong-Jie, CUI Xu-Dong, LIU Tong

      2021,58(1):015002

      Abstract:

      Heavy metal ions have a serious impact on water quality and its application, and the development of a highly selective and sensitive detection platform for heavy metal ions has great significance in the water resources protection. The surface-enhanced Raman (SERS) sol substrate was prepared by using 4-MBA to modified gold nanoparticles as a carrier, which has strong selectivity and high sensitivity to heavy metal ions such as Pb2+, Cd2+, and As3+ in aqueous solution. The experiments found that the Raman detection spectra of Pb2+, Cd2+ and As3+ by the SERS substrate have obvious shifts in vibration frequency bands and peak intensities near 1046cm-1, 1075cm-1, and 1587cm-1. An optimized enhanced substrate was obtained by optimizing the sol-substrate, which can distinguish three kinds of heavy metal ions. The detection limit for heavy metal ions can reach 0.1mg/L, and it has a linear relationship in the range of 0.5 to 100 mg/L. A standard addition verification experiment was performed on Pb2+ in real water samples. This substrate provides a fast and convenient method for heavy metal identification and detection with better enhancement effect and heavy metal quantitative analysis ability, and provides an effective means for the efficient detection of heavy metal ions in water.

    • First-principles study of the properties of Au-Ag nanotube encapsulated into carbon nanotube

      SUN Ya-Ru, MA Liang-Cai

      2021,58(3):035001

      Abstract:

      By using first-principles calculation based on density-functional theory, we have systematically investigated the stability, electronic and mechanical properties of (4, 2) Au-Ag alloy nanotubes encapsulated in a series of zigzag (n, 0) carbon nanotubes with various diameters. The most stable combined system with larger filling rate is AuxAg4-x@(15, 0) with an optimal tube-tube distance of about 4.20 ?. The analysis of band structure shows that the quantum conductance of the composite system is much higher than that of the corresponding isolated alloy nanotubes. The energy states near the Fermi level are mainly attributed to the s electrons of the inner Au and Ag atoms as well as the p electrons of the outer C atoms. The critical strains and the ideal strengths of the combined systems are remarkably higher than those of the freestanding alloy nanotubes, suggesting that the mechanical properties of the alloy nanotubes are signi?cantly enhanced by the carbon nanotube coating.

    • Numerical simulation of biomass grate furnace combustion based on FLIC

      XIAO Fan, HU Nan, ZHANG Man, JIN Yan, YANG Hai-Rui

      2021,58(2):025002

      Abstract:

      Based on the FLIC simulation platform, we have performed a numerical simulation study on a 7 MW biomass layer fired hot air boiler in Northeast China. The simulation results show that the biomass layer can be roughly divided into three stages, the water evaporation section (0~0.5 m), the volatile emission combustion section (0.5~2.1 m) and the fixed carbon combustion section (1.0~2.8 m). The volatile content of this fuel is relatively high, the thickness of the bed after its precipitation is significantly reduced, and the primary air temperature is too low, resulting in a low fixed carbon burnout rate, so the primary air temperature can be appropriately increased. According to the characteristics of the fuel in different combustion stages, the air can be supplied on demand. For example, 80% to 90% of the total volume can be provided during the volatiles escape combustion stage, and 10% to 20% of the total air can be provided during the fixed carbon combustion stage. This improves the fuel combustion efficiency, and can optimize the structure of the arch angle and the furnace arch coverage length according to the flue gas temperature, and enhance the ignition and burnout of the furnace arch. According to the simulation results, it is proposed to optimize the primary air and the air supply scheme to make the combustion more adequate.

      WANG Jing, SHI Rui-Ying, ZHU Guo-Dong

      2021,58(2):025001

      Abstract:

      All-inorganic perovskites, such as CsPbX3 (X = Cl, Br, I), are gaining increasing attention due to their outstanding optoelectronic properties, especially their higher thermal stability comparing with organic-inorganic hybrid perovskites. However, CsPbX3-based photodetector demonstrated a relatively low responsivity due to the low carrier mobility of perovskite films. In this work, we synthesize CsPbBr3 quantum dots and construct a hybrid graphene-CsPbBr3 quantum dots photodetector with a responsivity of 3.5×104 A W-1, by introducing graphene as a transport layer. The unprecedented performance is attributed to the effective charge transfer and photogating effect, high mobility of graphene and prolonged carrier lifetime.

The phase, structure, thermal properties and spectral characteristics of samples were characterized and analyzed. The results showed that the temperature of the montmorillonite losing adsorbed water and interlayer water in the three samples WH-G, XY-G and ST-G increase with the increase of the layer charge number of the montmorillonite in the samples, but its thermal stability is opposite. The structures of montmorillonite WH-G and XY-G samples are completely destroyed at 900 °C, while the structure of montmorillonite of ST-G sample is completely destroyed at 800 °C.

      Abstract:

      In order to effectively solve the environmental pollution caused by dye wastewater, a copper ion chelated chitosan magnetic composite was prepared for the adsorption of dye wastewater. The composite Cu@CTS@Fe3O4 was successfully prepared by the coordination chelation of chitosan with copper ion and the introduction of magnetic particles Fe3O4. The structure and morphology of the prepared materials were characterized by FTIR, SEM and TGA. At the same time, the adsorption kinetics and isotherm adsorption of reactive brilliant red (RBR) were studied in detail. The adsorption experiments showed that the adsorption capacity of Cu@CTS@ Fe3O4 to RBR reached the maximum of 831.22 mg/g when pH=2. This study provides some relevant data and theoretical guidance for the application of chitosan-based adsorbents in the field of dye wastewater treatment.

    • Synergistic tuning of microstructure and thermoelectric performance of bismuth telluride based materials by ball milling

      LIU Sheng-Cun, CHEN Long, WANG Zheng-Shang

      2021,58(5):055002

      Abstract:

      Bismuth telluride compounds are thermoelectric materials with the best performance near room temperature, which have important application value in waste heat recovery and solid state refrigeration. The main preparation method is ball grind milling, and slight changes of various parameters may affect the microstructure and thermoelectric properties of materials. Ball milling time, as an important ball grinding parameter, can not only affect the refinement of powder particle size, but also regulate the thermoelectric properties of materials. Therefore, it is urgent to analyze the influence of ball milling time on the crystal structure, particle size and the thermoelectric performance of products. In this paper, bismuth telluride compounds were prepared by adjusting different ball milling time with constant ball grinding speed. The response of grains to ball milling time is found through the analysis of crystal structure and powder particle size. The result of subsequent thermoelectric performance tests shows that, with the increase of ball milling time, the change of particle size leads to the synergistic tuning of electron and phonon transport.

      Abstract:

      300M steel is an important material for fabricating main bearing structure of aircrafts. However, the surface oxidation and decarburization of this material will occur in varying degrees during the heat treatment of die forging process, which seriously affects the yield of forgings. Herein, the decarburization behavior of 300M steel under different heat treatment conditions is systematically studied. The morphology and thickness of the oxide layer are analyzed by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and the corresponding Energy Dispersive Spectrometer (EDS). The variation of decarburization depth is measured using microhardness method. The evolution of decarburization behavior of 300M steel under different heat treatment conditions is clarified, and the effect of anti-oxidation coating on the depth of decarburization layer is presented. The results show that the dense oxide layer formed on the surface of 300M steel during heat treatment has distinct protective effect, which can prevent the matrix carbon from diffusing to the surface, thus reduce the depth of decarburization layer. There is a balance between the diffusion rate of carbon and the surface oxidation rate at different temperatures, and the application of anti-oxidant coating on the surface of 300M steel will change the original balance. The results of microstructure analysis show that the full decarburization zone on the surface of 300M steel is composed by pearlite or ferrite, and the semi-decarburization zone is mainly martensite and precipitated carbide. We also expound the evolution of the near-surface microstructure of 300M steel with the increase of holding time. Finally, the coupling mechanism of decarburization and oxidation on the surface of 300M steel is revealed from the perspective of thermodynamics. The results of this paper are expected to provide important data and theoretical support for establishing optimization process of die forging and developing heat treatment protection technology of 300M steel.

      2022,59(3):035001

      Abstract:

      Fifteen known ferrocenylpyrano-fused quinolines were synthesized efficiently via three-component Povarov reaction of 4-methyl-7-aminobenzopyranone, aromatic aldehydes, and ferrocenyl acetylene in the presence of cerium trifluoromethylsulfonate (Ce(OTf)3) and scandium trifluoromethylsulfonate (Sc(OTf)3), with yields ranging from 40.0% to 66.8%. The structures of the compounds were characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and HR-MS (ESI). The antioxidant activities of the compounds were evaluated by inhibiting oxidation reaction of DNA induced by hydroxyl radical (HO·) and reductive glutathione radical (GS·), and the effects of the type, position and number of substituents on the antioxidant abilities of ferrocenylpyrano-fused quinolines were investigated. The results showed that the fifteen target compounds exhibited strong radical scavenging activities to protect DNA against oxidation induced by HO· and GS·. The absorbance percentages of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) of the fifteen target compounds were 36.6%~83.3% in inhibiting HO· induced oxidation of DNA, and 22.9%~67.2% in inhibiting GS· induced oxidation of DNA, respectively. The antioxidant activity could be further enhanced by introduction of electron-donating groups (such as -N(CH3)2, -OCH3, and -OH) in ferrocenylpyrano-fused quinolines structures, while antioxidant activity was reduced when electron-withdrawing group (-Cl) was introduced. The ferrocenylpyrano-fused quinolines exhibited better antioxidant performance than ferrocenyl quinolines and are potential powerful antioxidants.

      2022,59(1):015002

      Abstract:

      The choline chloride-urea deep eutectic solvent system was used to leach blast furnace dust, and then zinc was obtained by direct electrodeposition. The effects of liquid-solid ratio, leaching time, and stirring speed on the leaching rate of zinc were investigated. After the leaching experiment, the cyclic voltammetry and electrodeposition experiments were carried out, respectively. The experimental results showed that the leaching rate of zinc reaches 71% under the conditions of liquid-solid ratio of 10 mL/g, the leaching time of 30 h, the stirring speed of 300 r/min, and the temperature of 70 ℃. The cyclic voltammetry test confirmed that the reduction potential was -1.4 V. X-ray diffraction and energy spectrum analysis showed that the coating was metallic zinc with high purity. By analyzing the morphology of the coating, it was found that the zinc coating was composed of cluster grains of about 1 μm.

      ZHOU Can, SUN Hong-Juan, PENG Tong-Jiang, ZHANG Qi

      2022,59(2):025001

      Abstract:

      In the structures of the illite and montmorillonite, because the amount of Al3+ replacing Si4+ in the tetrahedrons is different, the number of layer charge is different, and the degrees of damage to the structure during acid treatment are also different. In this work, two raw materials, Zhejiang Anji bentonite and Jilin Antu illite, were respectively acid treated with sulfuric acid and hydrogen peroxide for comparative experimental study. The phases, structures, thermal properties, spectroscopic properties and microscopic morphologies of the raw were characterized and analyzed. The results show that the montmorillonite structure of the montmorillonite sample is destroyed when the acid treatment concentration is 2 mol/L. With the increase of the acid treatment concentration, the surface of the lamellae changes from smooth and flat to edge curling to collapse between layers; The structure and morphology of illite of the sample are basically intact when the acid treatment concentration is 6 mol/L, and the acid corrosion resistance of montmorillonite is not as good as that of illite. The results in this study are of significance to the application and development of illite and montmorillonite.

      CHEN Long, WANG Zheng-Shang, CUI Xu-Dong

      2022,59(4):045003

      Abstract:

      In this work, the relationship between solid content and viscosity for light curing slurry was studied. The preparation and printing of high solid content slurry (45 vol%) were realized by regulating rheological priperties of the dispersant. It is found that the processes of degreasing and sintering are key factors and cracks, which directly affect the quality of ceramics. Thus, the degreasing curve was adjusted according to the type of organic matter in the prepared alumina ceramic slurry. In addition, the two-step degreasing methods of pyrolysis in vacuum and carbon removal in air can fully remove the organic mater, which is not easy to peroduce pores. Finally, the alumina ceramic material with the dense structure was obtained. In all, the effects of dispersant type, concentration and alumina solid content on slurry viscosity were systematically analyzed and the degreasing process was optimized. We hope our work can provied an experimental basis for the light curing molding and the perormance optimization of complex structural ceramic materials.

      Abstract:

      Zymomonas mobilis is a Gram-negative bacterium with excellent ethanol-producing capabilities. The ability of ethanol yield and substrate utilization can be further improved through genetic manipulations. In this study, in order to increase the recombination efficiency of foreign genes into chromosome of Z. mobilis, the RecET genes were cloned into the E. coli-Z. mobilis shuttle expression vector pSUZM3a, resulted in pSUZM3a-RecET. The adhA gene encoding the alcohol dehydrogenase and tetracycline resistant gene were used as the target and the selection marker genes, respectively. The PCR fragments of tetracycline resistant marker with 60bp flanking sequences homologous to adhA were electroporated directly into Z. mobilis ZM4 cells which harbored pSUZM3a-RecET. After the PCR analysis and DNA sequencing, it was found that the RecET-mediated recombination reaction resulted in adhA gene replaced by tetracycline resistant gene. The result showed that RecET system could make efficient, rapid targeted gene knock-out with only 60bp homologous arm in Z. mobilis.

      HUANG Ling, TONG Ying, XIAO Zhi-Xiong, ZHANG Yu-Jun

      2016,53(1):228-234

      Abstract:

      The p53 family member p73 is a transcription factor involved in the regulation of cell cycle, apoptosis and cancer cell drug-resistant. Here we reported that knockdown of p73 sensitized HCT116 colorectal cancer cells to cisplatin treatment independent of p53. Hsa-miR-330 (miR-330) was identified to be able to directly repress the expression of TAp73α. Overexpression of miR-330 decreased the protein levels of endogenous TAp73α and phenocopied the effect of p73 knockdown. Restoration of TAp73α eliminated miR-330-induced chemosensitivity toward cisplatin. Our results demonstrated a novel function of TAp73α to impair cisplatin sensitivity in colorectal cancer cells which can be repressed by miR-330, thus provided an effective strategy for therapeutic treatment of cisplatin-resistant cancer cells.

      2016,53(1):169-174

      Abstract:

      The cDNA sequences of UGT75B1, UGT71B6, UGT71C5 were cloned by PCR method and then were constructed into glutathione S-transferase gene fusion vector PGEX-6P-1. All of the plasmids were transformed into E. coli strain BL21 individually for recombinant protein expression. Recombinant UGTs were purified from supernatant of cell lysates. To investigate the activity of recombinant UGTs, HPLC was employed to determine their activity to catalyze ABA and p-aminobenzoic acid. Analysis by reverse-phase HPLC was carried out using a Kromasil C18 column (250mm×4.6mm, 5μm) and glucose ester was separated by a linear gradient of 10%-100% methanol in H2O (all solutions contained 2.5ml/L of acetic acid and 0.4ml/L of triethylamine) or 10%-20% acetonitrile in H2O (all solutions contained 1ml/L of trifluoroacetic acid). The results showed that only UGT75B1 presented strong p-aminobenzoic acid acylglucosyltransferase activity and the others had lower activity. All of the recombinant UGTs had ABA-GE activity. However, UGT71B6 performed highest activity. Analysis of Michaelis-Menten kinetics of UGT75B1, UGT71B6 and UGT71C5 indicated that their Km was 0.73, 0.43 and 0.45 mM, respectively. In conclusion, our investigations demonstrate that UGT75B1 has higher p-aminobenzoic acid acylglucosyltransferase activity than ABA-GE activity. It seems that p-aminobenzoic acid is the specific substrate of UGT75B1. In comparison, UGT71B6 and UGT71C5 with similar Km perform higher ABA-GE activity.

      2017,54(6):1317-1322

      Abstract:

      Uridine diphosphate (UDP)-glycosyltransferases (UGTs), belonging to the family 1 glycosyltransferases (GTs), play important roles in transferring glycosyl moieties and glycosylating secondary metabolites in Arabidopsis thaliana. Reconstructed phylogenomic trees can provide novel insights in studying evolutionary relationship and functions of this multigene family. By combining comprehensive phylogenetic profiles and reconstructed phylogenomic trees, we systemically analyzed 112 Arabidopsis UGTs. In total, we detected five distinct evolutionary conserved modules, and most UGTs were divided into the same module indicating a rather conserved evolutionary routine of Arabidopsis UGTs. We next manually collected the substrates of Arabidopsis UGTs and mapped them to orthologous groups, revealing evolutionary relationships of UGTs in binding specific substrates. By scanning 271 different species, we also predicted several unreported proteins that were closely related to Arabidopsis UGTs.

      2018,55(1):0165-0171

      Abstract:

      Although Populus (Saliaceae) is an important group of forest trees in the sense of economy, ecology and scientific researches, few is known about the structural and sequence variation of chloroplast genome across the genus. We sequenced and characterized the complete chloroplast genome of the Chinese aspen (Populus adenopoda), and made comparative analyses of the structure variation of the chloroplast genomes of P. adenopoda and other 11 poplars. The P. adenopoda chloroplast genome is 158,591bp in length, exhibits a typical quadripartite structural organization, consisting of a LSC region of 84,634 bp, two IR regions of 27,667 bp and a SSC region of 18,623 bp. Comparison of the cp genome structure and gene order to those of the 12 Populus species indicated that the chloroplast genomes of this genus are rather conservative, only six large deletions or insertions were found across the whole genome. Phylogenetic analysis demonstrated that the 12 Populus species clustered into three well-supported clades, and Chinese aspen is most closely related to the white poplar, P. alba. Our work will better our understating of the evolutionary history of Populus, and will be useful to future population genetics and other molecular ecology studies of poplars based on chloroplast DNA sequences.

      2018,55(1):0179-0183

      Abstract:

      The phytohormone abscisic acid (ABA) is crucial for plant development and response to abiotic stress, including drought. ABA perceived by the ABA receptors, PYR/PYL/RCAR, which bound to ABA, and then recruit Protein phosphatase 2C (PP2C) to inhibit the PP2C acticity, thereby activating SNF1-RELATED PROTEIN KINASE2 (SnRK2s). Here, CARK3 and RCAR12 interact in yeast two-hybrid system and GST-pull down in vitro. Bimolecular fluorescence complementation (BiFC) was used to illuminate the interaction between CARK3 and RCAR12 in Nicotiana benthamiana in vivo. We could confer that CARK3 indeed interacts with RCAR12 in present study and the phosphorylation modulates the physiological response of the core ABA signaling pathway. Our results provide the foundation for further understanding of the regulatory network of phosphorylation of ABA signaling pathways core components.

      2017,54(6):1301-1305

      Abstract:

      To explore the function of a cell differentiation-associated long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) LINC00941 in cancer progression, we detected the expression of LINC00941 in 6 types of human cancer cell lines and HEK-293 cell line by real-time quantitative PCR. LINC00941 is highly expressed in colorectal carcinoma cell lines HCT116 and HCT116 p53-/-, lung carcinoma cell lines A549 and NCI-H1299, and melanoma cell line Stilling, especially in colorectal carcinoma cell lines. By detecting the RNA levels of LINC00941 in the tumor and normal tissues of colorectal cancer patients, we found that the expression levels were significantly increased in tumor compared with paired normal tissues. By shRNA(short hairpin RNA) interfering, we found LINC00941-knockdown HCT116 cells had lower proliferation rate compared with negative control cells, suggesting the correlation of LINC00941 and colorectal cancer progression.

      In the DNA triangle nanostructure, its corner is composed of Holliday junction in DNA homologous recombination.To further investigate it,the DNA triangle was modified by introducing the sticky end to the holiday junction motif to make it self assemble into a DNA nanostructure.The gel electrophoresis analysis showed that the migration rate of this new DNA nanostructure was faster than that of the DNA triangle. Without the distortion,the motif assembled to form a dimer structure instead of a trimer triangle. The DNA nanostructure was crystallized and modified with selenium to obtain high quality crystals. The DNA nanostructure and the structure of the Holliday motif under non-twisting tension will be further studied and determined in order to offer more insights into DNA nanomaterial interaction and self-assembly.

      Abstract:

      To study the regulation effect on vaccination of porcine circovirus-2 (PCV2) by co-delivering interleukin-12 (IL-12) cDNA via chitosan nanoparticles, two subunits of IL-12, P40 and P35 of Tibetan pig, were cloned into mammalian expression plasmid VR1020. VRIL-12 was transfected into HEK293 cells and PCR test was conducted. The results showed that IL-12 gene could express successfully. The recombinant plasmid was packaged into chitosan nanoparticles using ionic crosslinking method. The nanoparticles (VRIL-12-CNP) were confirmed to be nanoparticle size with good dispersion and positive charge. VRIL-12-CNP was then used to inoculate the 21-day-old piglets together with PCV2 vaccine. Blood samples were taken at day 0, 7, 14 and 28 post inoculation for analysis. The results showed that post vaccination the T cells such as CD3+, CD4+ , CD8+, and anti-PCV2 specific antibody, all increased significantly in the VRIL-12-CNP co-delivering pigs (P<0.05), the expression levels of TLR2, TLR7, IL-12, IL-4, IL-6 and IL-15 in the co-delivering group were significantly higher than those in control group (P<0.05), and the expression of STAT1, 3 and Bcl-2 gene was also increased significantly in the co-delivering pigs (P<0.05). Moreover, the net weight gain of the pigs in co-delivery group was significantly increased in the 28 days post inoculation (P<0.05). These results indicated that co-delivery of VRIL-12-CNP elevated swine innate immune response and both humoral and cellular immune response to PCV2, and VRIL-12-CNP is a promising safe and effective adjuvant to PCV2 vaccination.

    • Study on the mechanism of Cordyceps cicadae extracts promote longevity in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

      YANG Li, YAN Meng-Li, LIU Ke

      2020,57(1):169-173

      Abstract:

      This study aims to explore the role of Cordyceps cicadae extracts (CCE) in resistance against H2O2 -induced oxidative stress and chronological lifespan extension in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The experiments are performed with various concentrations of CCE to test the chronological lifespan extension. Then, the resistance against H2O2 induced oxidative stress was measured in terms of intracellular ROS accumulation. The mRNA levels of SOD2, GPX2 and CTT1 were measured by real -time PCR. The results indicate that CCE can prolong yeast chronological lifespan in a dose dependent manner. Furthermore, the CCE pre-treated cells accumulate significantly lower ROS in the case of H2O2-induced oxidative stress. Taken together these results suggest that CCE extends chronological lifespan and develops resistance against H2O2 induced oxidative stress through upregulation of CTT1 and SOD2.

      DONG Hao, WEN Jun, LU Xi-Rui

      2020,57(1):163-168

      Abstract:

      A novel chitosan modified material, CTS-AM-AO-DA was synthesized through the crosslinking of chitosan with amidoxime group and (1-(dimethylamino)allyl) phosphonic acid (DMAAPA) as the uranium adsorbent from seawater. The chemical structures and appearance of the polymers were characterized by the FT-IR spectrum and the SEM. The adsorption kinetics in simulated seawater and the effects of solution pH, salinity, and competing ions on the adsorption properties of materials were studied by using adsorption experiments. The equilibrium adsorption capacity of CTS-AM-AO-DA is 223 mg/g and the adsorption dynamic data are applicable to the quasi-second-order model. Weak alkalinity (8.0), high salinity (0.5 mol/L) or the presence of competitive ions (Ca2+, Mg2+, V5+) can not affect the adsorption properties of this material (CTS-AM-AO-DA) that provides the potential applications in real seawater environment.

      WAN Li-Juan, YANG Ming

      2017,54(3):605-610

      Abstract:

      g-C3N4 and P25 organic-inorganic composite with varying the content of g-C3N4 has been synthesized through facile mixing and heating method. The composite was characterized by X-ray diffraction, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) and UV-vis diffuse reflection spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and BET surface area measurements. The activity of composite photocatalyst g-C3N4-P25 with 60% or 80% g-C3N4 for photoreduction of CO2 is higher than that of either single-phase g-C3N4 or P25 under visible light irradiation. The as-prepared organic-inorganic composite exhibits an improved photocatalytic activity due to enhancement of electron–hole separations both at the interface and in the semiconductors.

    • Absorption and scattering properties of gold nanotubes with an offset core

      ZHANG Xing-Fang, LIU Feng-Shou, YAN Xin, WEI De-Quan

      2018,55(1):0154-0158

      Abstract:

      The effects of core offset, dielectric constants of core and embedding medium as well as incident light direction on the absorption and scattering properties of gold nanotubes with a nonconcentric core are theoretically studied by the finite difference time domain method. The numerical results show that the absorption and scattering spetra red shift and the absorption-scattering ratio increases with increasing core offset distant of the inner core from the nanotube centre. Moreover, the absorption-scattering ratio also increases with the increased core dielectric constant or the decreased dielectric constant of embedding medium. When the incident light direction is parallel to core offset direction, the greater absorption-scattering ratio appears as the position of the core is close to the incident light, but the ratio is smaller than that one when the incident light direction is perpendicular to offset direction as the core offest is given.

      SHI Yun-Long, LAO Yuan-Xia, WANG Ling, ZHANG Hai-Bing, DENG Ai-Hong, WANG Yuan

      2016,53(6):1340-1344

      Abstract:

      In this paper, Er2O3 films are prepared in mixing atmosphere by radio frequency magnetron sputtering method. The phase structures, surface and cross-section morphologies of Er2O3films are characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM), respectively. The results show that the phase structure of the pure Er2O3 film is still stable under the annealed temperature of 500℃. However, with the annealing temperature increasing, the monoclinic phase of the Er2O3 film can transform into cubic phase at 700℃. In addition, for the Er2O3 film with He containing, the degree of crystallinity may be affected by He atoms. He bubbles can not be formed with small amount of He doped in, and the diffraction peak of the Er2O3 film decreased obviously comparing with that of the pure Er2O3 film. As the content of the doped He atoms increase, the monoclinic phase of the Er2O3 film becomes more stable under the high internal pressure due to the forming of He bubbles.

      MA Chong-Di, LIU Qian, LI Yue, SHEN Yue-Yue, ZHAO Shi-Lin

      2017,54(4):822-827

      Abstract:

      Chlornitrofen is a diphenyl ether herbicide, which is a typical persistent organic pollutant and has been widely used in 70~90 years in twentieth Century. Although it has been banned for 20 years, chlornitrofen still exists in water and soil systems, which has the potential threats to the agro-ecology systems. In the present study, humic acid ester ether (HAEE) was synthesized via regulating the dosage of glycerol triglycidyl ether while humic acid ester (HAE) was uniting as raw material. HAEE was analyzed by the analysis methods of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and contact angles. The results indicated that hydrophobic HAEE has the structure of humic acid and the characteristic functional groups of HAE. The adsorption characteristics and mechanisms of HAEE to chlornitrofen were investigated via a series of batch equilibrium experiments. As the results showed, the hydrophobic angle is increased from 30 to 96 degrees before modification. The degree of hydrophobic of HAEE is positively correlated with the adsorption capacity of chlornitrofen, and equilibrium reached after 2.0 h. The kinetics of adsorption is described well by the pseudo-second-order model, and Freundlich models are more suitable for the sorption isotherm. The adsorption capacity reduces gradually after 5 cycles. The removal rate is still above 78%. The adsorption mechanisms are π-π interaction and hydrophobic distributional effects. Adsorbent prepared by this method may provide a novel approach for remediation of chlornitrofen in aqueous-soil environment.

      2017,54(1):147-155

      Abstract:

      Mechanical properties and micro-structure fracture mechanism of tungsten nanowires with crystal orientation of [110],[112] and [111] have been investigated with molecular dynamics and embedded atom methods. Simultaneously common neighbor analysis, center symmetry parameters and coordination number has been employed to analysis the evolution of structure. It is concluded that different crystal orientation nanowires have different characters. The elastic modulus, yield strain, yield strength and the fracture stress is decreasing in the sequence of[111], [110]and [112] crystal orientations. It also reveal that all of the stress-strain curves are classified into four stages: elastic stage, damage stage, yielding stage and failure stage. It concluded that crystal orientation has slightly impact on the elastic modulus but has great effect on tensile strength, yield strength and ductility. Interestingly, hardening stage has been found in tungsten nanowire with crystal orientation of [112] at yielding stage. That is to say the strain increase with the stess increase in the hardening stage, the nanowire with crystal orientation of [112] has the trend that recover its capability in strength, but consequently result in the least ductility. In the end the tensile failure mechanisms of the three nanowires have been summarized.

      CHEN Jian-Yu

      2017,54(1):156-160

      Abstract:

      Graphene Oxide-Pristine SWNT composites were fabricated using graphene oxide(GO) as a surfactant to directly disperse pristine SWNT, followed by a freeze-drying method of the sample. The morphology, structure, component and electrochemical property of the compounds were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and electrochemical measurements. The results showed that the electrochemical properties of the compounds were significantly improved due to the insertion of SWNTs into a GO matrix. Through changing the ratio between SWNTs and graphene oxide, the sample corresponding to a SWNT ratio of 10% showed the best supercapacitor property. At such a optimized mixing ratio, the specific capacitance of the nanocomposite was 155 F·g-1 at a current of 0.5A·g-1 in the KOH aqueous electrolyte of 6 mol·L-1 , which was 1.9-fold higher than that of pure graphene oxide (81.5F·g-1). These results clearly demonstrate that GO-SWNT composites prepared by our present simple method is very promising for next generation high-performance energy storage devices.

      Abstract:

      Ti-doped Fe2O3 photoanode was obtained through metal–organic decomposition method. The physical and photophysical properties of the hematite photoanode were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), UV-vis absorption spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and the photo-electrochemical performance was evaluated for the Ti-doped Fe2O3 photoanode.

    • Evolvement from Jurimetrics, computational law to cognitive law

      ZHANG Ni, PU Yi-Fei

      2021,58(2):020001

      Abstract:

      The paper discusses the impact of natural sciences such as artificial intelligence technology to Jurimetrics, computational law (or computational jurisprudence) and cognitive law (or cognitive jurisprudence) from the perspective of technological development and interdisciplinary. It first proposes the theory and definition of cognitive law, including its research scope, studying meanings and academic discipline, and teases out the relationships among Jurimetrics, computational law and cognitive law. To reduce the subjectivity and provide the objective reference for the vague expression in legal system, some quantitative methods, computational intelligence and cognitive intelligence are applied to legal system successively. However, legal information is open textured and semantic vagueness, and it is difficult to express all kinds of tacit knowledge, process knowledge and fuzzy knowledge by computer symbol system. Cognitive intelligence stresses to improve the ability of intelligent systems to understand data, express knowledge, reason logically and learn by themselves. Following the footsteps of technology, it will be the inevitable trend stepping from Jurimetrics and computational law to cognitive law. Cognitive law improves the understanding of legal rules and analysis of legal behavior, and enhances the interpretability of intelligent judgments by utilizing cognitive intelligence. As the sub-branch of cognitive social science, cognitive law will improve traditional legal theories, promote the deeply integration of the Common law system and the civil law system, and is expected to be a new interdisciplinary subject.

    • Global optimality conditions for mixed integer nonlinear programming problems

      QUAN Jing, LI Guo-Quan

      2017,54(3):452-458

      Abstract:

      In recent years, the application of mixed integer nonlinear programming problem has been extremely active and very extensive. In this paper, some necessary conditions for a given global minimizer applied to mixed integer nonlinear programming problem with bounded constraints which arises in continuous as well as discrete optimization have been developed. Also, some sufficient global optimality conditions for mixed integer nonlinear programming problem with bounded constraints are established. The global optimality conditions readily apply to problems whose objective functions are generally twice continuously differentiable. If the objective functions are quadratic, then the global optimality conditions become verifiable. Some simple numerical examples can illustrate the significance of the optimality conditions.

      LIAO Qun-Ying, LI Xue-Lian

      2016,53(2):235-246

      Abstract:

      It is well known that normal bases over finite fields have been implemented efficiently in software. The hardware and time complexity of multiplication using normal bases depends on the structure of the normal basis used, particularly on the complexity of the normal basis. Therefore to determine the complexity for normal bases, especially Gauss normal bases over finite fields, is interesting. By properties for finite fields and elementary techniques, we obtain the upper and lower bounds of the complexity for the dual basis of a class of the type (n,k)(k\geq 3) Gauss normal bases, and determine the explicit complexity of the dual basis for the type (n,k)(k=1,2) Gauss normal bases over finite fields, which is an elementary proof for the main results given by Wan and Zhou in 2007.

      2021,58(2):021001

      Abstract:

      In this paper, we propose a model for the recommendation of applicable law articles. As an application, the judgment documents data sets of fraud and divorce dispute are selected from the criminal and civil cases. Based on transfer learning, the legal word vectors are trained from the pre-trained general word vectors by using the FastText model. Then, the text is classified according to the well trained vectors. The simulation results show that for both the fraud and the divorce dispute, after the transfer learning, the applicable law can be recommended comprehensively and accurately for the case discription text, especially for the targeted regulations and judicial interpretations. With the continuous improvement of the transfer learning mode, our model is expected to be further applied to the evidence pushing and sentencing prediction.

      SU Juan, HE Zhi-Rong

      2016,53(2):260-264

      Abstract:

      This paper focuses on multistable analysis of one dimensional Hopfield neural networks, whose sigmoid activation function may not be bounded. Firstly, the condition for the existence of equilibria is established. Moreover, the conditions for exactly 1, 2, or 3 equilibria and their stability respectively are proposed with some constraints for network parameters. Then, the corresponding results about the equilibria features are supplemented in the remaining cases for the parameters. Thus, we obtain the relationships between all the different values of the parameters and the number of equilibria as well as their stability. Finally, by employing bounded and unbounded activation functions, two examples and numerical simulations are used to illustrate the theory developed in this paper.

      The well-known sensor selection issue is of great significance in wireless sensor network. We aim at selecting a subset of out of sensors to conduct the corresponding hypothesis test based on their observations such that the false alarm rate attains the minimum, which has been proved to be NP hard. In this paper, we relax the original problem to a tractable one and propose a new algorithm, which can achieve the KKT point. Moreover, compared with the existing algorithm, our algorithm is more efficient since it has lower computation complexity. Simulations also illustrate that the global optimum can be reached in most cases.

      Abstract:

      In recent years, the deep packet inspection technology and traffic identification technology based on the statistical characteristics of data packet have developed rapidly. But they have some disadvantages. The deep packet inspection technology can’t identify the encrypted network traffic, and the other technology heavily relies on subjectively chosen statistical features. A network traffic identification method based on convolutional neural network algorithm is proposed in this paper. According to certain rules, the network data is converted to gray images. In order to improve the recognition rate, the original network data is extended according to the order of the TCP packets and the disorder of the UDP packets. Experimental data shows that this method has a high detection rate both in the application and application layer protocol.

      Abstract:

      In this paper, fractional-order memristor (fracmemristor), a novel basic element of brain-like computing, is discussed.The concept of memristor is extended from the conventional integer order to the fractional order, i.e. the fracmemristor. Fracmemristor is a compound word of fractional-order memristor, whose fractional impedance is fracmemristance. Accordingly, it is natural to think of a range of theoretical challenges: What is the relationship of fracmemristor to the conventional fractor and the famous memristor? What are the interpolation properties between the memristor and the capacitor or inductor? Where is the location of fracmemristor in the Chua's circuit periodic table? What are the general expressions for fracmemristances of arbitrary-order ideal capacitive and inductive fracmemristors? What are the measuring unit and physical dimensionality of fracmemristor? What are the fingerprint features for identifying fracmemristor? How to implement arbitrary fractional-order memristor effectively in the form of analog circuit with ordinary memristor, capacitor and inductor? This paper makes preliminary discussions on the above challenging theoretical problems based on abundant prior exploratory findings. The fracmemristor solves the problem that fractor is difficult to realize the function of memory charge or magnetic flux. As a basic circuit element, the fracmemristor can be applied to the design of chaotic system, neural circuit and neural network circuit.

      2021,58(1):012001

      Abstract:

      Directly processing the track initiation and tracking of the points recorded in the radar point recorder of the three dimensional air traffic control system will generate a large number of false alarms and a large amount of calculation. When performing target tracking, the number of candidate point sets is huge is the main reason for the large amount of calculation in the target tracking process. Based on the dynamic adaptive DBSCAN clustering algorithm and the classic Kalman filter tracking algorithm, a hybrid dynamic adaptive DBSCAN clustering tracking algorithm is proposed in this paper to reduce the number of candidate point sets. Experiments have found that the number of invalid points is reduced and the track quality is improved Computing time decreases. Through the dynamic adaptive DBSCAN clustering tracking hybrid algorithm, it can quickly track the target detected by cnac radar once and form the target track, which can detect the black flight target in time and reduce the interference to the normal flight of civil aviation aircraft to the minimum.

      LIU Yun, WANG Hai-Hua

      2017,54(3):504-508

      Abstract:

      【Abstract】: In hierarchical M2M(Machine-to-Machine)networks with high-density of nodes, the interlayer cluster heads and terminal nodes generally adopt the random mechanism to compete channel, so cluster head or terminal nodes contend for the channel with similar opportunity, especially the cluster head has large amount of data to transmit, which may cause high delay or packet loss. In order to reduce delay and packet loss rate of cluster heads,then presents BT-MAC((Based on Traffic Medium Access Control) algorithm, when terminal nodes and cluster head compete channel, based on the amount of data to be sent algorithm with inverse proportion to set backoff time of the node. So the greater data cluster head transfer, the smaller average backoff time is, equivalent to set cluster head a higher priority, thereby collisions reduce, and the probability of cluster head increase. Simulation results show that BT-MAC algorithm can improve the channel access probability of cluster head thereby to achieve a smaller average delay and can reduce the average energy consumption of nodes, compared to the common DMAC protocol and SMAC protocol.

      Abstract:

      In Wyner-Ziv video coding system, correct transimission and accurate decoding of key frames would affect the whole system performance directly. However, in wireless communication system, data loss of key frames often happened due to network failure, network congestion or other reasons. Data lossy seriously affect the decoding quality. This paper presents a novel solution for the data loss of key frames under the conditions of feedback channel. In the solution, by sending some extra Wyner-Ziv code streams along with the origin key frames, errors of the damaged image at the decoder can be high-efficiently corrected and restored. Simulation results show that the proposed solution could reconstruct the damaged image effectively, and the quality could be improved up to 20dB compared with typical error concealment method when the data loss ratio is 1%~20%. Furthermore, R-D performance of key frames could be improved even if the data loss ratio is very high.

      Abstract:

      A superstrate is able to significantly increase the gain of an antenna, and this superstrate based technology has been widely used. However, the studies about the effects of superstrates on the return loss of the antenna are limited. In this work, taking homogenous dielectric superstrates and a probe-fed microstrip antenna as examples, using numerical simulations, the effect of superstrates on the return loss of an antenna is investigated. The simulation results show, by proper design of some structural parameters, such as the distance between the superstrate and the antenna, the feeding location of the antenna and so on, the dielectric superstrate can improve both the gain and the impedance bandwidth. A prototype is fabricated and measured, and the measured results shows that it has a gain of 14.5 dBi and a |S11|<-10dB impedance bandwidth of 11.19% , which verifies the simulations.

      2018,55(1):0089-0098

      Abstract:

      In order to divide communities accurately in weighted networks, a hierarchical clustering method IEM based on the similarity and modularity is proposed. Firstly, the similarity of the two nodes is defined based on attributes of their common neighbors. Then, the most closely related nodes are clustered fastly according to their similarity to form the initial community and expand it. Lastly, these communities are merged with the goal of maxmizing the modularity so as to optimize division re sults. The algorithm achieves more reasonable and effective community division for weighted network by three steps of initializing, expanding and merging communities. Correctness and effectiveness of the algorithm are verified through experiments on many weighted networks using weighted modularity as evaluation index. Results show that IEM is superior to weighted CN, weighted AA and weighted RA. Moreover, it can achieve the higher quality of community division in weighted networks compared with CRMA algorithm.

      2016,53(2):337-346

      Abstract:

      Based on the SNESIM algorithm, a fast three-dimensional(3D) reconstruction algorithm of multiple-point statistics simulation was proposed. First, pattern sets were built by the red-black tree. The height of tree structures was rapidly reduced. CPU time for retrieving matching data events was saved. Then, the algorithm combined the advantages of probability aggregation approach and the sequential two-dimensional(2D) simulations with sample data approach. Half-template and all-template were utilized in nodal simulation. The proportion of informed conditioning nodes in template was increased so that the amount of possible data event was declined. The algorithm was tested on 2D channelized reservoir section, 3D porous medium images and 3D reservoir rock images. The results showed that this algorithm achieved the efficiency without degradation of accuracy. No matter isotropic or anisotropic rocks, the visual characteristics, the statistics characteristics and the pores-throats structures of the reconstructions were similar to the corresponding real 3D digital rock images, which proved that this algorithm was reliability.

      LIU Yi-Lin, HUANG Ka-Ma, LI Lu, LI Jun

      2018,55(4):739-744

      Abstract:

      In this paper, a thin circular polarization rectenna for near space aerocrafts is designed. Since aerocrafts are generally limited in load and moving continuously, the rectenna should have the characteristics of circular polarization, light weight, small volume, low profile, and is easy to be conformed to the surface of aerocrafts. The rectenna designed in this paper works at 5.8 GHz and is fed by coplanar waveguide (CPW), which has a wide bandwidth. The rectifier circuit adopts series diode form, and uses CPW low pass filter for DC filtering without using any lumped elements. The designed rectenna, which only weighs 1.98 g, has a compact structure and a 0.5 mm thick profile, and the optimum rectification efficiency is 71.22%. The test results are in good agreement with the simulation results, which verifies the feasibility of the design.

      2017,54(4):753-758

      Abstract:

      The SOI strained silicon schottky source/drain MOSFET with high-k gate dielectric is a potential device realizing small size MOSFET, which combines the advantages of strained silicon engineering, high-k gate dielectric, SOI structure and schottky source/drain. A model for the structure is proposed by solving two dimensional Possion’s equation, which takes into account for the impact on the source/drain schottky barrier height for electron of image force barrier and size quantization effect, then the drain induced barrier lower model is investigated based on the threshold voltage model. The experiment data of drain induced barrier lower extracted from literature is compared with the model, which verifies its correctness, and discuss the variety relationship between drain induced barrier lower and several parameters. The result shows that drain induced barrier lower increases with strained silicon thickness, channel doping and germanium fraction increasing, decreases with channel length, gate dielectric constant, intrinsic schottky barrier height for electron and drain source voltage increasing. The device can suppress drain induced barrier lower effect greatly through adjusting the model parameters properly, which can provide some reference for the design of SOI strained silicon schottky source/drain MOSFET with high-k gate dielectric device and circuit.

      2021,58(3):033001

      Abstract:

      In view of the limitations in the process of assembling the conceptual model according to the the designer’s experience in the current product design system, a product design method based on design scheme tree and knowledge base is proposed. The formulae, experience, optimization principles and other information in the design process are stored in the knowledge base in which the structure is the tree with the product attributes as its nodes. The product conceptual design and parts’ detailed design are combined, and the product components are screened and designed while the principles are arranged. The tree structure is adopted and the product attribute is taken as the node to generate the design tree. Then the ideal solution method based on analytic hierarchy process is used to rank the alternatives, which increases the diversity of alternative schemes and reduces the cost of the product while obtaining the optimal solution. Taking the design of the hoist as an example, the reliability and practicability of the algorithm are verified

    • Stochastic resonance of impurities diffusion induced by dichotomous noise and square-wave signal in a semiconductor layer

      OU Jian

      2016,53(2):331-336

      Abstract:

      The stochastic resonance (SR) in a semiconductor layer driven by a dichotomous noise and square-wave signal is investigated. On the assumption that the system satisfies the adiabatic approximation condition, applying the two-state theory, the expression for the output signal-to -noise ratio (SNR) of the system is obtained. The non-monotonic influence of the surrounding temperature on the SNR is found. It is shown that the SNR is a non-monotonic function of the standard deviation of the impurities’ position and the system bias: By choosing the deviation and bias of the impurity, the system SNR can be tuned. For low temperature, large bias can improve the system SNR. Moreover, the SNR increases with the amplitude of the square-wave signal and the ratio between temperature of the hot and cold reservoirs for relatively high temperature, while the SNR decrease with the increase of potential energy and the strength of the dichotomous noise. The results obtained in this paper have certain theoretical significance for the semiconductor design and the investigation of the semiconductor layer process.

      ZHAO Zhi-Hao, WANG Zhi-Min, SUN Yang

      2017,54(6):1202-1210

      Abstract:

      It is known that there is a contradiction between range estimation and velocity estimation due to the influence of pulse repetition frequency (PRF) in traditional phased-array (PA) radar. In this paper, a joint unambiguous angle, range and velocity estimation method is proposed for bi-static multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) radar with frequency diverse array (FDA). Owing to the FDA, there is a little frequency increment between the arrays and the transmit steering matrix carries angle, range even velocity information. Consider the range-angle coupling in transmit steering matrix, a subarray-based transmitted waveform and decoupling approach are designed. Utilizing the ESPRIT algorithm and ambiguity resolve methods based on FDA, the direction-of-departure (DOD), direction-of-arrival (DOA), range and velocity parameters are estimated unambiguously. Additionally, Cramér-Rao bounds (CRB) for these parameters are derived and the performance of this radar is analyzed. Simulation results indicates the validity of the proposed method.

      zhaowenjing, chen wen jing, su xian yu

      2016,53(1):110-117

      Abstract:

      Abstract: One of the key steps in 3D optical shape measurement based on the structured light projection is the phase unwrapping. The unwrapping issue about the complicated phase map is also the difficult step of the methods. The temporal phase unwrapping provide a useful tool to obtain the continuous phase map from the complicated wrapped phase map. Along the time direction, the temporal phase unwrapping is independently carried out from a 3D distribution demodulated from grating fringes with different pitches projected on the tested object. Therefore the problem of the error propagation in 2D phase unwrapping algorithm can be avoided. Followed by the comparison among the typical temporal phase unwrapping methods, including the negative exponential method, three pitches unwrapping method, three pitches heterodyne unwrapping method and its improved technique, a segmentation curve fitting method is used to improves the phase calculation accuracy. The computer simulations and experiments are carried out to verify that the phase error is deduced greatly through the segmentation curve fitting.

The composition, morphology, microstructure and optical property of the sample were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD).The results showed that the Zn1-xMnxS (x = 0,0.01,0.03,0.05,0.07,0.10) nanoparticles were spherical hexagonal structure of nanocrystalline, uniform particle size between 15 ~ 20nm. At room temperature, using the UV excitation wavelength is 350nm stimulate Zn1-xMnxS nanoparticles. Blue light emission which is produced by transition between shallow donor level and manganese t2 level can be obtained. Luminous intensity with the increasing amount of manganese-doped increased decreased after the first.And emission peaks have a mobile with the change of manganese-doped content. The reason may be related to sulfur vacancies which influence shallow donor level of ZnS. The proportion of zinc-manganese has an impact on the amount of sulfur vacancies and level position.

      LI Ji-Hong, ZHENG Xing-Rong, PENG Chang-Ning

      2016,53(1):131-137

      Abstract:

      By using ab initio self-consistent field Hartree-Fork methods and atomic clusters expanding theory and employing Gamess program, two- and three-body interaction energies and the equation of state for solid argon in fcc crystal have been quantificationally calculated at the neighboring atomic distance R=2.40 -4.00 Å under high pressure. In addition, the convergence and truncation of atomic energy multi-body expansion are analyzed. It is found that two-body contribution to the cohesive energy is positive, while the three-body contribution is negative in solid argon under high pressure. At high pressure, only the consideration of the two-body contribution will overestimate the cohesive energy, hence it is necessary to introduce the three-body negative effects. The phenomenon of the experiment under 80GPa can be explained by considering the three-body potential.

    • Pathology of the Fermionic Representation of Transverse Ising Model

      GUO Xiao-Ting, LI Peng

      2016,53(1):124-130

      Abstract:

      When studying the quantum Ising chain in a transverse field, we usually transform the spin operators to fermion operators by applying the Jordan-Wigner transformation,i.e.we take it for granted that the spin model and corresponding fermionic model are equivalent naively. But deliberate treatment could reveal that the equivalence accompanies some delicate conditions.Redundant degrees of freedom should be projected out carefully, especially for finite length of chain. In this paper, we compare the two models in detail so as to find the conditions of equivalence of them,including the interaction, the boundary conditions, and odevity of the number of lattice sites.We also exemplify in detail how to project out the redundant degrees of freedom for the fermionic representation.

      SHI Cheng-Fang, JING Jian-Li, GuoMinglei

      2017,54(3):541-546

      Abstract:

      In order to study the generation of the vector beams by using the polarization modulation of the spatial variant wave-plate, the Jones vectors and Jones matrix are used to further discuss the process, in which an arbitrary Laguerre-Gaussian beam can be transformed into vector beam. Based on the mathematical mode, the far-field intensity distributions of the generated vector beams have been simulated by numerical method. The simulated results show that, the line-polarized and circularly polarized beams with basic mode can be converted to vector beams by using spatial variant half-wavelength plate and quarter wavelength plate respectively, and the dark core of the output beam increases with an increase of the order of the spatial variant wave-plate. The effects of the spatial variant wave-plate on the helical beams can be equivalent to the superposition of two mutually orthogonal circularly polarized helical beams. The polarization test of the orbital angular momentum confirms the practicability of this method.

      2017,54(3):579-584

      Abstract:

      By setting different electric fields and adopting density functional B3P86/cc-PV5Z method, the geometric structure of SiH molecule is optimized, and the bond lengths, dipole moments, vibration frequencies and other physical properties parameters are obtained. On the basis of adopting the energy of high precision coupled cluster CCSD (T) method and the same basis set to scan single point energies, the potential energy curves of different external fields are given. The results show that the physical properties parameters and potential energy values will change with the changes of external electric fields, especially, of the reverse direction electric field. In order to get the critical dissociation electric parameter, the dipole approximation is adopted to construct potential model, then the model is put to fit the corresponding potential energy curve of external electric field. It is found that the fitted critical dissociation electric parameter is reasonably consistent with the numerical calculation; i.e., the relative errors are also less than 4%. So the model constructed is reliable and accurate. These will provide some theoretical and experimental reference for the studies of molecular spectroscopy, dynamics and molecular cooling with Stark effect.

    • Constitutive model for dynamic mechanical response of high strength steel

      2016,53(2):382-388

      Abstract:

      It’s important to understand the deformation behavior of metals in the dynamic loading process. In this study, the dynamic mechanical responses of high strength steel are investigated by uniaxial compressive experiments on the Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar (SHPB) with strain rate range from 3000 to 12000s-1 and temperature range from 20℃to 800℃. The experimental results show that the mechanical responses of steel investigated are strongly affected by the strain, strain rate and deformation temperature. The flow stress increases with the increasing of strain rate while decreases with the increasing of deformation temperature. A phenomenological constitutive model is established to describe the strain rate harden and temperature soften behavior. The stress-strain relationships predicted by the phenomenological constitutive model agree well with the experimental results, which shows that the proposed constitutive model can be used to study the dynamic deformation process furthermore.

      WANG Hai-Yan, YANG Bing-Fang, WANG Biao, SHI Rui-Li

      2017,54(4):781-784

      Abstract:

      The structural properties of XeF2 in the pressure range from 0 to 80 GPa are studied by plane-wave pseudopotential density functional theory method. The calculated values are in agreement with the experimental data. Based on the calculated elastic constants of XeF2 under different pressures, the I4/mmm structure of XeF2 is confirmed to be stable in the pressure range from 0 to 80 GPa. The band gap of XeF2 at different pressure is calculated and the band gap is found to decrease with the increase of pressure. When the pressure is greater than 10 GPa the band gap of XeF2 increases linearly with the increase of pressure, which indicates that XeF2 transforms from the insulator to semiconductor and has more and more strong metallic with the increase of pressure.

      2017,54(4):771-780

      Abstract:

      We employ the first-principles plane wave method in the frame of density functional theory (DFT) to investigate the equilibrium lattice structure, the mechanic, thermodynamic and electronic properties of CuAlSe2 compound. The lattice constants, the bulk modulus B0 and its pressure derivative B0’ are calculated. Based on the quasi-harmonic Debye model, we also obtain thermal expansion coefficient. It is noteworthy that the variation tendencies of these parameters are investigated detailed with pressure. In addition, we also calculate the elastic constants of CuAlSe2 compound. Results show that the elastic constants C11、C33、C12 and C13 increase with increasing pressure, whereas the influences of pressure on elastic constant C44 and C66 are not obvious. The calculated elastic constants satisfy the hecriterion of mechanical until the pressure grows to more than 15GPa, which suggests the structure phase transition of CuAlSe2 may be happened. We also investigate the shear sound velocity VS, longitudinal sound velocity VL, and Debye temperature ΘE from our elastic constants, as well as the thermodynamic properties from quasi-harmonic Debye model. We obtain the dependence between the heat capacity Cv and pressure, and the same as thermal expansion coefficient α. At last, the pressure dependences of band structures and density of states are also investigated, which shows that the value of TDOS decreases with the increase of the pressure.

      LIU Hang, LI Yi, YAO Zhen, FENG Li-Qiang

      2018,55(1):0118-0124

      Abstract:

      The generations of the high-order harmonic and the attosecond pulse from He+ ion driven by the chirped pulse combined with the unipolar pulse have been numerically investigated. The results show that by preparing the initial state as the coherent superposition of the ground and the first excited states of He+ ion, the harmonic yield is enhanced by 6 orders of magnitude in comparison with the single ground initial state case. Further, by introducing the laser chirp and the unipolar controlling pulse, the cutoff energy of harmonic spectrum is remarkably enhanced, and the interference structure of harmonic is also reduced. Further, with the introduction of the spatial inhomogeneous effect, the harmonic cutoff can be further extended, resulting in a super-bandwidth of 320 eV. By superposition of harmonics, three attosecond X-ray pulses with durations from 45 as to 48 as can be obtained, which is 5 ~ 6 orders of magnitude improvement in comparison with the single ground initial state case.

    • Theoretical studies on the Electronic structures and oxygen carrying functions of TPPFe(II) and L-Thr-TPPFe(II)

      JIANG Jun-Hao, ZHOU Hui, JIANG Qi-Hua, DENG Ping

      2016,53(2):367-374

      Abstract:

      The geometry of TPPFe(II) and L-Thr-TPPFe(II) were optimized using density functional theory (DFT) at the B3LYP level with the mixed basis sets: Lan2dz for Fe(II), 6-31G(d) for C and H atoms, and 6-311++G(2d, p) for N and O atoms. To simulate real conditions, the solvent effects of CHCl3 and H2O were studied using the polarized continuum model (PCM). The electron density at the bond critical point was calculated using the topology analysis of the Multiwfn software. Based on the calculated data of electrostatic potential obtained by quantitative analysis of molecular surface using the Multiwfn software, the molecular electrostatic potential maps were illustrated using VMD software. The bond length and electron density at the bond critical point indicate the coordination bond between the Fe(II) atom and the O atom of carbonyl group in L-threonine and the intramolecular hydrogen bond between H(7) atom and N(1) atom. The porphin ring is warped by the effect of the coordination bond and the intramolecular hydrogen bond. The coordination effect between the Fe(II) atom and carbonyl group may weaken the bond strength between Fe(II) atom and O2, but it is beneficial for the reversible oxygen carrying functions. The solvent effects of CHCl3 and H2O may attenuate the intramolecular hydrogen bond and the coordination effect between the Fe(II) atom and carbonyl group, and enhance the warping of porphin ring and the coordination effect between Fe(II) atom and O2. The computation of molecular electrostatic potential show that the more negative value outside the O atom, N atom and benzene ring are contributed by lone-pair electrons and π-electrons, respectively. The electrostatic potential outside the H atom of the benzene ring and the Fe(II) atom is positive. The most positive value is outside the Fe(II) atom which is the most probable active sites in coordination reactions between the Fe(II) atom and O2.

      GUO Yu-Fan, CHEN Wen-Jing, SU Xian-Yu

      2017,54(2):321-329

      Abstract:

      The impact of the system nonlinear on measuring accuracy of three-step phase-shifting measuring profilometry with the traditional sinusoidal frequency modulated grating projection is discussed. A binary encoded sinusoidal frequency modulated grating is used to improve the accuracy of absolute phase calculation in three-step phase-shifting phase measuring algorithm. A comparison of accuracy of absolute phase in phase-shifting measuring profilometry with the traditional frequency modulated grating projection and with binary encoded frequency modulated grating projection based on Floyd-Steinberg is completed as well. These results show that the three-step phase-shifting algorithm based on sinusoidal frequency modulated grating template is sensitive to the nonlinear of the measuring system, however, the application of the binary encoded frequency modulated grating template not only maintains the advantage of calculating absolute phase from a single set of fringe patterns, but also avoids the impact from the nonlinear of the system. The new method greatly improves the measurement accuracy of phase-shifting measuring profilometry based on frequency modulated grating projection. Computer simulation and experiment verified the effectiveness of the proposed method.

      2018,55(1):0111-0117

      Abstract:

      Aiming at the problem of the edge error caused by the traditional empirical mode decomposition method, an improved empirical mode decomposition method is proposed for eliminating the decomposition error in the edge zones of the signals in this paper, in which, a mirror extension method and Gerchberg extrapolation iteration is introduced to eliminate the decomposition error at edges position, respectively. The improved method can effectively suppress the mode decomposition error caused by the signal edge and improve the decomposition accuracy of the EMD. It is also applied in the analysis of the deformed fringe pattern for eliminating the background components in 3D optical measurement, by which a better reconstructed result of 3D surface can be obtained.

      2016,53(1):138-144

      Abstract:

      This paper adopted the LANL2DZ pseudopotential basis set and B3LYP method to calculate the microstructure and electronic properties of HgmSen(m=1,2,3,n=1,2) molecules and molecular ion clusters. Meanwhile, it utilized the time-dependent density functional theory to calculate the absorption spectra, thus obtaining the ground state structure, electronic properties, binding energy, energy gap, dipole moments and other microscopic properties. Then it analyzed the frontier molecular orbital characteristics, identified all the harmonic vibration mode and absorption spectroscopic properties. The results show that: when m+n=1~3, the linear and angular types are the stable geometry with ground state; when m + n = 4 ~ 5, the ring type is the stable geometry with ground state, besides, compared with other molecular clusters, HgSe2 molecular cluster have the greatest stability, binding energy and the minimal energy gap.

      ZUO Ke, DU Wen-Yi, DAI Tian-Yang, LIU Wei, LIANG Li, hujianping

      2017,54(3):585-594

      Abstract:

      Carbapenems, used in clinical treatment of multi-drug resistance bacterial infection, can be hydrolyzed by Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemases, which weaken the treatment effect of gram negative bacterial infection. It’s an important means of improving the clinical efficiency of these antibiotics to develop novel, potent and specific Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase inhibitors. And β-lactamase inhibitor protein can competitively inhibits Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemases. The movement patterns of complex involved in Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase and β-lactamase inhibitor protein are analyzed by coarse-grained models. The results indicate the movement patterns of Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase change a lot after it is inhibited by β-lactamase inhibitor protein. Finally, the binding modes between the series of cyclic boronic acid β-lactamase inhibitors and Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase are released by molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulation, and explained the relationship between the recognition mechanism and conformation-inhibition activity of these inhibitors from the angle of hydrogen bonds and energy. This research provides a theoretical basis of the subsequent design of the inhibitor based on the Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase structure.

    • Study on the adsorption of rare earth metal cerium ions (IV) by pectin

      ZHANG Li-Yuan, CHEN Qi, Liu Yi-wu, ZHOU Da-Li

      2017,54(4):807-814

      Abstract:

      The adsorption of rare earth metal cerium ions by low fat pectin was determined. The effects of the adsorption time, pH of the cerium ion solution, adsorption temperature, dosage of pectin and concentration of cerium ions on the adsorption capacity of pectin were investigated. The adsorption process was analyzed by the Langmuir and Freundlich models. Using the adsorption isotherm, the related thermodynamic and kinetic parameters were calculated, and infrared spectrum analysis was performed. The results indicate that the variables studied significantly affect the adsorption of cerium ions by pectin and that the infrared spectra before and after adsorption are apparently different, implying that a chemical reaction may have occurred in the adsorption process. The Freundlich equation is better suited to describe the adsorption process compared to the Langmuir equation. The adsorption process is best described by a pseudo-first order kinetics equation. Enthalpy and entropy differences are the driving forces of the adsorption process.

    • Nonlinear dielectric behavior study of chemical reactions in a strong electric field

      HONG Tao, TANG Zheng-Ming, ZHU Hua-Cheng, LAN Jun-QIng, HUANG Ka-Ma

      2017,54(1):131-134

      Abstract:

      In the presence of a strong electric field, novel phenomena always happen in chemical reactions, including the change of chemical reaction rate and the shifting of chemical equilibria. However, the mechanism is still unknown. This paper studies the interactions between chemical reaction systems and strong steady electric fields. Based on the theory of molecule reorientation, the modified Smoluchowski equation is expanded by the Legendre polynomials. The general expression of polarization is derived by considering the second-order nonlinear response. The nonlinear variation is also discussed through a simple isomerization reaction. The result shows that the ratio between the second-order nonlinear term and the polarization is proportional to the electric field. Meanwhile, the condition for which the result applies is also discussed.

      YANG Run, XIE Rui-Shi

      2017,54(2):357-363

      Abstract:

      Water–soluble CdSe:Zn/ZnS core-shell quantum dots were successfully synthesized in aqueous solution by a green synthetic route using a variety of ligands, and the effects of ligands on the structure and optical properties of the quantum dots were explored through a variety of analytical methods. XRD results show that the obtained CdSe:Zn/ZnS core-shell quantum dots possess cubic sphalerite structure of ZnS phase and their average grain size is about 2.4 nm, which is smaller compared with that of sample fabricated without ligands. SEM result shows that the shape of CdSe:Zn/ZnS is nearly spherical. Interestingly, the synthesized samples have good hydrophilicity, and the surfaces of the samples are coated with hydrophilic groups, which is consistent with the FT-IR results. Compared with the corresponding bulk materials, the absorption peaks of the quantum dots display a significant blue shift, demonstrating the obvious quantum confinement effect.

      2020,57(1):140-146

      Abstract:

      The coordination polymers ([Dy(TZI)(H2O)4]•4H2O (1) and [La(HTZPI)(HC2O4)(H2O)3]•H2C2O4 (2)) have been synthesized by involving the bifunctional ligands (5-tetrazolylisophthalic acid (H3TZI) and 5-(4-(1H-tetrazolyl) phen) isophthalic acid (H3TZPI)) as linkers coordinating with rare earth metal ions (Dy3+/La3+). The using synthesis methods are hased on solvothermal synthesis and slow solvent evaporation. Crystal structures are characterized by X-ray single crystal diffraction, which show that the two compounds correspond to one-dimensional double-stranded chain and two-dimensional layer structure, respectively. It is notable that for this bifunctional ligand the tetrazolyl group is invalid when it coordinates with rare earth metal centers. Meanwhile, the thermal stabilities and the luminescent properties of them are investigated.

      ZHANG Li-Yuan, LIU Yi-Wu, ZHOU Da-Li, YAO Qian-Qian

      2017,54(6):1275-1280

      Abstract:

      H2TiO3-lithium adsorbent was loaded on cordierite-based ceramic foams by the sol-gel process. The adsorption and elution of Li+ by the obtained samples were studied with the ion exchange columns via the dynamic process. The effects of liquid flow speed, Li+ concentration and single column/multi columns on the adsorption capacity and enrichment factor of Li+ were studied. The results indicate that it needs a long time for the lithium adsorbent loaded on ceramic foams to reach the leakage, and the adsorbent has a high operational adsorption capacity. In a certain range, flow rate of the eluent does not affect enrichment factor of Li+ apparently. The adsorbent does not have the ability to enrich Li+ with a high concentration. However, it is capable for the adsorbent to enrich a low level of Li+. The enrichment factor of Li+ can at least reach 26.55 times by adding hydrochloric acid to adjust pH of the effluent liquid to equal to that of the original eluent and using the obtained liquid as the eluent repeatedly.

      2017,54(4):815-821

      Abstract:

      In this paper, experimental study on static absorption was carried out for Alashan clay rock on Inner Mongolia. To explore the factors which may influence absorption characteristic of U(Ⅵ) on clay rock, including contact time, U(Ⅵ) initial concentration, solid-liquid ratio, pH value, ionic type and ionic concentration. The following results are obtained. The absorption rate of U(Ⅵ) on Alashan clay rock in Inner Mongolia is quite fast with adsorption equilibrium achieved in 24 hours. The optimum adsorption ratio is 1:200, and the optimum adsorption concentration is 160 μg•mL-1.The absorption capacity of clay rock was enlarged with the increasing of pH value. When pH value is at 8, the ability of absorption reaches the best. The absorption capacity of Uranium is largely hindered by Ca2+、CO32- and HCO3-, which have a great effect on the absorption ability of U(Ⅵ). The distribution coefficients of K+、Na+、Cl-、NO3-、SO42- can be changed with the change of ionic concentration, The surface adsorption of U(Ⅵ) on clay rock is dominated by inner-sphere complexation. The studies indicate the adsorption behavior of U(Ⅵ) on clay rock has a great significance on settling high level radioactive waste in China.

      2017,54(2):364-370

      Abstract:

      The pyrolysis characteristics and kinetics of fluoroether rubber in air and nitrogen flow were studied by thermogravimetric analysis at five different heating rates. The kinetic parameters of the pyrolysis process were calculated using the method of Flynn-Wall-Ozawa and the mechanism of reaction were investigated using the method of Popescu. The results suggested that as the heating rates increasing, the pyrolysis temperature of the sample is moved to be higher. There is only one peak in DTG curves. The sample is more stable under nitrogen flow and the pyrolysis process of it is promoted by oxygen. It was found that the average value of the activity energy in air is 172.5kJ/mol, while 260.9kJ/mol in nitrogen. The pyrolysis process in air are well described by the model of Three dimension (R3) between 340°C and 370°C, by the model of Ginstling-Brounshtein (G-B) between 370°C and 380°C, and by the model of Zhuravlev (Zh) between 380°C and 400°C. While the thermal decomposition process in nitrogen are well described by the model of Ginstling-Brounshtein (G-B) between 400°C and 430°C, by the model of Three dimension (R3) between 430°C and 460°C.

      2017,54(1):135-140

      Abstract:

      In this work, the electronic structures, charge density differenceand optical properties of Si and C codoped anatase TiO2 are studied by using the plane-wave ultrasoft pseudopotential method of density functional theory (DFT). The calculated results reveal that C-Si-codoped anatase TiO2 results in band gap narrowing that increases the probability of electronic transition from the impurity energy levels to the conduction band (about 1.7eV), then improves the solar energy utilization, the existence of impurity energy levels in the forbidden gap reduces the carrier transition energy. The C-Si-codoped TiO2 has been helpful for enhancing the absorption coefficient under visible-light region, especially, among the three models, the third model exhibits the largest value of absorption coefficient under visible-light region.

      WANG Jing, SHI Rui-Ying, ZHU Guo-Dong

      2021,58(2):025001

      Abstract:

      All-inorganic perovskites, such as CsPbX3 (X = Cl, Br, I), are gaining increasing attention due to their outstanding optoelectronic properties, especially their higher thermal stability comparing with organic-inorganic hybrid perovskites. However, CsPbX3-based photodetector demonstrated a relatively low responsivity due to the low carrier mobility of perovskite films. In this work, we synthesize CsPbBr3 quantum dots and construct a hybrid graphene-CsPbBr3 quantum dots photodetector with a responsivity of 3.5×104 A W-1, by introducing graphene as a transport layer. The unprecedented performance is attributed to the effective charge transfer and photogating effect, high mobility of graphene and prolonged carrier lifetime.

      WU Ying, ZENG Qiang, HU Guang-Shan, WEN Tong

      2021,58(1):015001

      Abstract:

      The microstructures and hot compression behavior of Mg-4Sn-1Ce alloy were studied by optical microscopy (OM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and hot simulation test. The results shown that the as-cast alloy is mainly composed of island-like “island” shaped α-Mg、Mg2Sn、Ce4Sn5 and MgSnCe phases with the strain rate range of 0.001~1 s-1 and temperature range of 250~450 ℃ hot compression. The hot deformation activation energy Q is 162.03 kJ/mol. When the hot compression temperature increases from 250 to 450 ℃, the microstructures of tested alloy evolve from (compressed grains+extruded streamlines) to recrystallized equiaxed grains.

    • Numerical simulation of biomass grate furnace combustion based on FLIC

      XIAO Fan, HU Nan, ZHANG Man, JIN Yan, YANG Hai-Rui

      2021,58(2):025002

      Abstract:

      Based on the FLIC simulation platform, we have performed a numerical simulation study on a 7 MW biomass layer fired hot air boiler in Northeast China. The simulation results show that the biomass layer can be roughly divided into three stages, the water evaporation section (0~0.5 m), the volatile emission combustion section (0.5~2.1 m) and the fixed carbon combustion section (1.0~2.8 m). The volatile content of this fuel is relatively high, the thickness of the bed after its precipitation is significantly reduced, and the primary air temperature is too low, resulting in a low fixed carbon burnout rate, so the primary air temperature can be appropriately increased. According to the characteristics of the fuel in different combustion stages, the air can be supplied on demand. For example, 80% to 90% of the total volume can be provided during the volatiles escape combustion stage, and 10% to 20% of the total air can be provided during the fixed carbon combustion stage. This improves the fuel combustion efficiency, and can optimize the structure of the arch angle and the furnace arch coverage length according to the flue gas temperature, and enhance the ignition and burnout of the furnace arch. According to the simulation results, it is proposed to optimize the primary air and the air supply scheme to make the combustion more adequate.

      Abstract:

      Heavy metal ions have a serious impact on water quality and its application, and the development of a highly selective and sensitive detection platform for heavy metal ions has great significance in the water resources protection. The surface-enhanced Raman (SERS) sol substrate was prepared by using 4-MBA to modified gold nanoparticles as a carrier, which has strong selectivity and high sensitivity to heavy metal ions such as Pb2+, Cd2+, and As3+ in aqueous solution. The experiments found that the Raman detection spectra of Pb2+, Cd2+ and As3+ by the SERS substrate have obvious shifts in vibration frequency bands and peak intensities near 1046cm-1, 1075cm-1, and 1587cm-1. An optimized enhanced substrate was obtained by optimizing the sol-substrate, which can distinguish three kinds of heavy metal ions. The detection limit for heavy metal ions can reach 0.1mg/L, and it has a linear relationship in the range of 0.5 to 100 mg/L. A standard addition verification experiment was performed on Pb2+ in real water samples. This substrate provides a fast and convenient method for heavy metal identification and detection with better enhancement effect and heavy metal quantitative analysis ability, and provides an effective means for the efficient detection of heavy metal ions in water.

    • First-principles study of the properties of Au-Ag nanotube encapsulated into carbon nanotube

      SUN Ya-Ru, MA Liang-Cai

      2021,58(3):035001

      Abstract:

      By using first-principles calculation based on density-functional theory, we have systematically investigated the stability, electronic and mechanical properties of (4, 2) Au-Ag alloy nanotubes encapsulated in a series of zigzag (n, 0) carbon nanotubes with various diameters. The most stable combined system with larger filling rate is AuxAg4-x@(15, 0) with an optimal tube-tube distance of about 4.20 ?. The analysis of band structure shows that the quantum conductance of the composite system is much higher than that of the corresponding isolated alloy nanotubes. The energy states near the Fermi level are mainly attributed to the s electrons of the inner Au and Ag atoms as well as the p electrons of the outer C atoms. The critical strains and the ideal strengths of the combined systems are remarkably higher than those of the freestanding alloy nanotubes, suggesting that the mechanical properties of the alloy nanotubes are signi?cantly enhanced by the carbon nanotube coating.

      Abstract:

      In order to effectively solve the environmental pollution caused by dye wastewater, a copper ion chelated chitosan magnetic composite was prepared for the adsorption of dye wastewater. The composite Cu@CTS@Fe3O4 was successfully prepared by the coordination chelation of chitosan with copper ion and the introduction of magnetic particles Fe3O4. The structure and morphology of the prepared materials were characterized by FTIR, SEM and TGA. At the same time, the adsorption kinetics and isotherm adsorption of reactive brilliant red (RBR) were studied in detail. The adsorption experiments showed that the adsorption capacity of Cu@CTS@ Fe3O4 to RBR reached the maximum of 831.22 mg/g when pH=2. This study provides some relevant data and theoretical guidance for the application of chitosan-based adsorbents in the field of dye wastewater treatment.

      Abstract:

      300M steel is an important material for fabricating main bearing structure of aircrafts. However, the surface oxidation and decarburization of this material will occur in varying degrees during the heat treatment of die forging process, which seriously affects the yield of forgings. Herein, the decarburization behavior of 300M steel under different heat treatment conditions is systematically studied. The morphology and thickness of the oxide layer are analyzed by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and the corresponding Energy Dispersive Spectrometer (EDS). The variation of decarburization depth is measured using microhardness method. The evolution of decarburization behavior of 300M steel under different heat treatment conditions is clarified, and the effect of anti-oxidation coating on the depth of decarburization layer is presented. The results show that the dense oxide layer formed on the surface of 300M steel during heat treatment has distinct protective effect, which can prevent the matrix carbon from diffusing to the surface, thus reduce the depth of decarburization layer. There is a balance between the diffusion rate of carbon and the surface oxidation rate at different temperatures, and the application of anti-oxidant coating on the surface of 300M steel will change the original balance. The results of microstructure analysis show that the full decarburization zone on the surface of 300M steel is composed by pearlite or ferrite, and the semi-decarburization zone is mainly martensite and precipitated carbide.

      TIAN Jing-Fei, SUN Hong-Juan, PENG Tong-Jiang, ZHANG Yu

      2022,59(6):065001

      Abstract:

      Using bentonite as the main raw material, zeolite A was prepared by alkaline melting. The static adsorption experiments were carried out to explore the adsorption kinetics and thermodynamics of Sr2+ on bentonite and zeolite A. The results show that the adsorption capacity of bentonite and zeolite depends on the initial concentration of Sr2+, and the trends of adsorption behavior with respect to the initial concentration and adsorption time is roughly the same for bentonite and zeolite. The isotherm adsorption process of Sr2+ on bentonite and zeolite conforms to the Langmuir isotherm adsorption model. The adsorption mechanism of Sr2+ on bentonite and zeolite is similar, both based on cation exchange adsorption in monolayer. The kinetics of adsorption follows a pseudo-second-order kinetic adsorption process controlled by chemical reaction. The bentonite and zeolite before and after adsorption were characterized by XRD and SEM. The adsorption of bentonite and zeolite in acidic solution did not severely damage or affect their intrinsic framework structures. The adsorption capacity of A zeolite for Sr2+ is about 3.9 times of that of bentonite, showing a better adsorption capability than bentonite.

      LIU Sheng-Cun, CHEN Long, WANG Zheng-Shang

      2021,58(5):055002

      Abstract:

      Bismuth telluride compounds are thermoelectric materials with the best performance near room temperature, which have important application value in waste heat recovery and solid state refrigeration. The main preparation method is ball grind milling, and slight changes of various parameters may affect the microstructure and thermoelectric properties of materials. Ball milling time, as an important ball grinding parameter, can not only affect the refinement of powder particle size, but also regulate the thermoelectric properties of materials. Therefore, it is urgent to analyze the influence of ball milling time on the crystal structure, particle size and the thermoelectric performance of products. In this paper, bismuth telluride compounds were prepared by adjusting different ball milling time with constant ball grinding speed. The response of grains to ball milling time is found through the analysis of crystal structure and powder particle size. The result of subsequent thermoelectric performance tests shows that, with the increase of ball milling time, the change of particle size leads to the synergistic tuning of electron and phonon transport. Finally, the maximum ZT merit of n-type and p-type bismuth telluride were increased to 0.91 and 1.11, respectively. This study systematically summarizes the influence of ball milling time on the microstructure and the thermoelectric capability of bismuth telluride. Our work shows the significance in the mergence of powder metallurgy and thermoelectrics, which may play some roles in the commercial application of thermoelectric conversion technology.

      CHEN Long, WANG Zheng-Shang, CUI Xu-Dong

      2022,59(4):045003

      Abstract:

      In this work, the relationship between solid content and viscosity for light curing slurry was studied. The preparation and printing of high solid content slurry (45 vol%) were realized by regulating rheological priperties of the dispersant. It is found that the processes of degreasing and sintering are key factors and cracks, which directly affect the quality of ceramics. Thus, the degreasing curve was adjusted according to the type of organic matter in the prepared alumina ceramic slurry. In addition, the two-step degreasing methods of pyrolysis in vacuum and carbon removal in air can fully remove the organic mater, which is not easy to peroduce pores. Finally, the alumina ceramic material with the dense structure was obtained. In all, the effects of dispersant type, concentration and alumina solid content on slurry viscosity were systematically analyzed and the degreasing process was optimized. We hope our work can provied an experimental basis for the light curing molding and the perormance optimization of complex structural ceramic materials.

    • Adsorption of polyvinylpyrrolidone on Ag surface and mechanism of selective growth of Ag nanostructures

      LIU Bo, SUN Hong-Juan, PENG Tong-Jiang, HE Rong, ZHU Wen-Kun

      2022,59(4):045001

      Abstract:

      To elucidate the mechanism of selective growth of Ag nanowires in capping agents, we investigated and the interaction between polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) molecules and various Ag crystal surfaces by first-principles calculations. The results show that PVP molecules severely affect the stability of Ag surfaces. Only Ag (200) and Ag (111) facets well maintain their structures upon the absorption of PVP molecules, suggesting their preferential growth in this capping agent. With the increase of PVP concentration, the binding of PVP molecules to the Ag (200) facet becomes stronger than that of Ag (111), which may facilitate the formation of Ag (200) nanostructure. The regulation mechanism of long-chain PVP molecules on Ag (200) nanostructures is mainly governed by the van der Waals force as well as the chemical bonding between ketone oxygen and Ag atoms.

      ZHANG Xiao-Ping, JIN Gui-Yong, MA Sheng-Tao, WANG Er-Bin, ZHAO Xue-Bin, CHEN Zhi-Fei, LI Zhuo, CHU Wen-Juan, ZHAO Xu, XI Gao-Lei

      2022,59(3):035001

      Abstract:

      Fifteen known ferrocenylpyrano-fused quinolines were synthesized efficiently via three-component Povarov reaction of 4-methyl-7-aminobenzopyranone, aromatic aldehydes, and ferrocenyl acetylene in the presence of cerium trifluoromethylsulfonate (Ce(OTf)3) and scandium trifluoromethylsulfonate (Sc(OTf)3), with yields ranging from 40.0% to 66.8%. The structures of the compounds were characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and HR-MS (ESI). The antioxidant activities of the compounds were evaluated by inhibiting oxidation reaction of DNA induced by hydroxyl radical (HO·) and reductive glutathione radical (GS·), and the effects of the type, position and number of substituents on the antioxidant abilities of ferrocenylpyrano-fused quinolines were investigated. The results showed that the fifteen target compounds exhibited strong radical scavenging activities to protect DNA against oxidation induced by HO· and GS·. The absorbance percentages of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) of the fifteen target compounds were 36.6%~83.3% in inhibiting HO· induced oxidation of DNA, and 22.9%~67.2% in inhibiting GS· induced oxidation of DNA, respectively. The antioxidant activity could be further enhanced by introduction of electron-donating groups (such as -N(CH3)2, -OCH3, and -OH) in ferrocenylpyrano-fused quinolines structures, while antioxidant activity was reduced when electron-withdrawing group (-Cl) was introduced. The ferrocenylpyrano-fused quinolines exhibited better antioxidant performance than ferrocenyl quinolines and are potential powerful antioxidants.

      Abstract:

      Zymomonas mobilis is a Gram-negative bacterium with excellent ethanol-producing capabilities. The ability of ethanol yield and substrate utilization can be further improved through genetic manipulations. In this study, in order to increase the recombination efficiency of foreign genes into chromosome of Z. mobilis, the RecET genes were cloned into the E. coli-Z. mobilis shuttle expression vector pSUZM3a, resulted in pSUZM3a-RecET. The adhA gene encoding the alcohol dehydrogenase and tetracycline resistant gene were used as the target and the selection marker genes, respectively. The PCR fragments of tetracycline resistant marker with 60bp flanking sequences homologous to adhA were electroporated directly into Z. mobilis ZM4 cells which harbored pSUZM3a-RecET. After the PCR analysis and DNA sequencing, it was found that the RecET-mediated recombination reaction resulted in adhA gene replaced by tetracycline resistant gene. The result showed that RecET system could make efficient, rapid targeted gene knock-out with only 60bp homologous arm in Z. mobilis.

      CEN Yong-Yi, LIU Zheng, LI Xu-Feng

      2016,53(1):169-174

      Abstract:

      The cDNA sequences of UGT75B1, UGT71B6, UGT71C5 were cloned by PCR method and then were constructed into glutathione S-transferase gene fusion vector PGEX-6P-1. All of the plasmids were transformed into E. coli strain BL21 individually for recombinant protein expression. Recombinant UGTs were purified from supernatant of cell lysates. To investigate the activity of recombinant UGTs, HPLC was employed to determine their activity to catalyze ABA and p-aminobenzoic acid. Analysis by reverse-phase HPLC was carried out using a Kromasil C18 column (250mm×4.6mm, 5μm) and glucose ester was separated by a linear gradient of 10%-100% methanol in H2O (all solutions contained 2.5ml/L of acetic acid and 0.4ml/L of triethylamine) or 10%-20% acetonitrile in H2O (all solutions contained 1ml/L of trifluoroacetic acid). The results showed that only UGT75B1 presented strong p-aminobenzoic acid acylglucosyltransferase activity and the others had lower activity. All of the recombinant UGTs had ABA-GE activity. However, UGT71B6 performed highest activity. Analysis of Michaelis-Menten kinetics of UGT75B1, UGT71B6 and UGT71C5 indicated that their Km was 0.73, 0.43 and 0.45 mM, respectively. In conclusion, our investigations demonstrate that UGT75B1 has higher p-aminobenzoic acid acylglucosyltransferase activity than ABA-GE activity. It seems that p-aminobenzoic acid is the specific substrate of UGT75B1. In comparison, UGT71B6 and UGT71C5 with similar Km perform higher ABA-GE activity.

    • TAp73α-mediated cisplatin sensitivity was suppressed by miR-330 in colorectal cancer cell HCT116

      HUANG Ling, TONG Ying, XIAO Zhi-Xiong, ZHANG Yu-Jun

      2016,53(1):228-234

      Abstract:

      The p53 family member p73 is a transcription factor involved in the regulation of cell cycle, apoptosis and cancer cell drug-resistant. Here we reported that knockdown of p73 sensitized HCT116 colorectal cancer cells to cisplatin treatment independent of p53. Hsa-miR-330 (miR-330) was identified to be able to directly repress the expression of TAp73α. Overexpression of miR-330 decreased the protein levels of endogenous TAp73α and phenocopied the effect of p73 knockdown. Restoration of TAp73α eliminated miR-330-induced chemosensitivity toward cisplatin. Our results demonstrated a novel function of TAp73α to impair cisplatin sensitivity in colorectal cancer cells which can be repressed by miR-330, thus provided an effective strategy for therapeutic treatment of cisplatin-resistant cancer cells.

    • The applicability of predicting protein structures with residue substitutions using homology modeling

      LIU Ji-Long, XIAO Zhi-Xiong, CAO Yang

      2017,54(3):658-664

      Abstract:

      Protein biological function is determined by its three-dimensional structure. Any residue substitution may lead to dramatic changes in structure and result in functional alternations. Thus it is of great importance to study the relationship between substitution and structure. Usually, proteins three-dimensional structure prediction is based on the similarity of sequence and structure. Whether this method is valid to the protein with residue substitution is still an open question. To answer this question, single residue substitution crystal structures were extracted from Protein Data Bank (PDB) to construct a non-redundant test set, which was used to assess two homology modeling structure prediction tools, SWISS-MODEL and MODELLER. The results indicate that the two methods perform well in overall structure prediction (RMSD<0.5Å), however, they fail to predict the mutants that own significant structural changes (A_RMSD>1.5Å) upon residue substitutions. The two methods perform better in mutations of embedded residues and mutations between polar residues. Although it is a small fraction of residue substitutions (<5%) that lead to significant conformation changes, they may play important roles in loss or gain protein functions. Therefore traditional homologous modeling methods are not appropriate for predicting such protein structures. There is urgent need to developing more powerful prediction methods.

      2017,54(3):617-622

      Abstract:

      AtTR1, AtCPK28, and AtCPK32 are functioning in the abiotic stress response in Arabidopsis thialiana, and closely associated with the calcium signaling pathway. In order to analyze relationships between AtTR1, AtCPK28 and AtCPK32, we expressed AtTR1, AtCPK28, and AtCPK32 in Escherichia coli, purified expression proteins, and studied the ubiquitination of AtCPK28 and AtCPK32 by AtTR1 in vitro. The results showed that the AtCPK28 and AtCPK32 were multi-ubiquitylated by AtTR1 in vitro. It indicated that the AtCPK28 and AtCPK32 are potential downstream targets of AtTR1 in the regulation of stress resistance signaling pathways. These findings provided experimental evidence to further study the interactions between AtTR1, AtCPK28, and AtCPK32, and also provided some insights of their molecular mechanisms in the plant under abiotic stresses.

    • Targeting EGFR-L858R mutation by Cpf1 and Cas9 nuclease

      WEI Heng, YANG Mei-Jia, ZHONG Kun-Hong, Quan Ai-Ping

      2018,55(2):401-406

      Abstract:

      Mutations in the EGFR kinase are a cause of non-small-cell lung cancer. Deletions in exon 19 and the L858R (2573T>G) single point mutation constitute about 90% of all EGFR mutations. Selectively inactivate only mutant, not normal allele, could benefit patients with such mutations. Here, the editing efficacy and selectivity of CRISPR-Cpf1 and -Cas9 systems on EGFR L858R mutant allele were analyzed by dual-reporter assay in vitro. Near the mutation site, there are two TTTN protospacer adjacent motifs (PAMs) for Cpf1. 2573T>G substitution also leads to occurrence of a novel NGG PAM for Cas9. Thus we designed two AsCpf1 gRNA (gRNA1 and gRNA2) and one SpCas9 gRNA (gRNA3) and evaluated their potency and allele specificity in vitro using a dual fluorescent protein-based bioassay system. As a result, both AsCpf1 and SpCas9 demonstrated robust activities to induce specific editing of only 2573T>G mutant EGFR, not wild-type sequence. Our results support the potential applicability of both Cpf1 and Cas9 in precision medicine through highly specific disruption of mutant oncogenes.

      Protein ubiquitination is one classic type of post-translational modification. The ubiquitin ligase E3 could interact directly with the substrate and mediate in large part the ubiquitination specificity. Arabidopsis thaliana BAH1 encodes a ubiquitin E3 ligase with a C3HC4-RING finger domain, which could bind two zinc ions to form a cross brace zinc finger. Here, we found the zinc finger structure of BAH1 and DnaJ was similar. Further self-ubiquitination assay in vitro demonstrated BAH1 possessed E3 ligase activity. We also found BAH1 can confer heat tolerance of E. coli as DnaJ by temperature-sensitive assays. Hence, these results indicated that BAH1 may improve heat tolerance of E. coli through interacting with DnaK/DnaJ chaperone system.

      Abstract:

      This experiment was conducted to investigate the impact of probiotics (Bacillus subtitles, Lactobacillus plantarum and Pediococcus pentosaceus) on egg quality of Caoke chicken. Four hundred and eighty new-born chicks of Lohmann Pink layers were randomly divided into 4 groups with 3 replicats. The control group was fed the basic diet (CP). And the experimental groups were added Bacillus subtitles (BS), Lactobacillus plantarum (LP), and Pediococcus pentosaceus (PP), respectively. The average amount of bacteria was no less than 107 CFU per day. The eggs quality (n = 600, at 220 d) differences among the experimental groups were shown as following: compared with the control group, the yolk color of group LP deepened by 2.91% (P<0.05), and group PP deepened by 1.68% (P<0.05), respectively. The average yolk weight of BS was heavier than the control group by 4.09% (P<0.05), and its average shell thickness was thicker than the control group by 9.64% (P<0.05), and the egg weight of BS was higher than the control group by 3.22 % (P<0.05). All analysis showed that egg quality traits were significantly affected by the three probiotics. Bacilli subtilize (BS) performed better than Lactobacillus plantarum (LP), and Lactobacillus plantarum (LP) performed better than Pediococcus pentosaceus (PP). This study provided the basic information for putting the three probiotic into egg production in chickens.

      HUANG Guo-Zhou, LI Yuan-Yuan, DENG Peng-Chen, BAI Lin-Han

      2017,54(4):874-880

      Abstract:

      Phytoene desaturase(PDS) is the target of the bleaching herbicide,norflurazon.The the 2D and 3D structures of wild PDS and two mutations were achived by online prediction,docking of PDS and norflurazon was carried out by DOCK6.5.Binding stablity was analysed by molecular dynamics simulation via the software Gromacs.The energy changes and distribution were revealed by mm_pbsa.pl tools in Amber9.At last,important amino acids were confirmed by the analysis of hydrogen bond with LIGPLOT+. The results suggested that different mutations didn’t change the 2D and 3D structures of PDS,but mutated PDS showed higher RMSD,which indicated lower binding stablity,and higher bingding energy,which indicated the difficulity to bind to noflurazon .Our research might explain the mechanisms of the resistance to norflurazon.

      Abstract:

      Although Populus (Saliaceae) is an important group of forest trees in the sense of economy, ecology and scientific researches, few is known about the structural and sequence variation of chloroplast genome across the genus. We sequenced and characterized the complete chloroplast genome of the Chinese aspen (Populus adenopoda), and made comparative analyses of the structure variation of the chloroplast genomes of P. adenopoda and other 11 poplars. The P. adenopoda chloroplast genome is 158,591bp in length, exhibits a typical quadripartite structural organization, consisting of a LSC region of 84,634 bp, two IR regions of 27,667 bp and a SSC region of 18,623 bp. Comparison of the cp genome structure and gene order to those of the 12 Populus species indicated that the chloroplast genomes of this genus are rather conservative, only six large deletions or insertions were found across the whole genome. Phylogenetic analysis demonstrated that the 12 Populus species clustered into three well-supported clades, and Chinese aspen is most closely related to the white poplar, P. alba. Our work will better our understating of the evolutionary history of Populus, and will be useful to future population genetics and other molecular ecology studies of poplars based on chloroplast DNA sequences.

    • The magnetic model of the single-domain magnetite magnetoreception

      QIAN Xia

      2017,54(3):600-604

      Abstract:

      Many living beings can distinguish direction and position by using geomagnetic field, while biomagnetites can be found in these living beings, so scholars think that there are magnetoreceptions existing in these living beings which are formed by the biomagnetites and outer organic tissues (including the nerve). The magnetoreceptions interact with outer magnetic field and can transform the magnetic information into neural information, so these living beings can have response to it. The theories of biomagnetite magnetoreceptions include the model of single-domain magnetite magnetoreception and the model of superparamagnetic magnetite magnetoreception. In magnetotactic bacteria, there are many typical single-domain magnetites, so in this paper, the magnetic model and working mechanism of the single-domain magnetite magnetoreception are discussed qualitatively from the point of view of theory of magnetism taking the example of magnetotactic bacteria. In the outer magnetic field, each single-domain magnetite which is surround by biomembrane can be forced, and the single-domain magnetite transmits the force to the outer biomembrane and can be accepted by mechanical receptor in the biomembrane, then the force can be transformed into a stimulus signal which can cause the behavior of the bacteria; Another case may also exist, the single-domain magnetites combine with the biomembrane tightly, the force can open or close the ion passageway thereby influencing the inflow of ions and influencing the transmembrane potential, so stimulus signal can be produced; The signals can be magnified because many single-domain magnetites and biomembrane exist.

    • Absorption and scattering properties of gold nanotubes with an offset core

      ZHANG Xing-Fang, LIU Feng-Shou, YAN Xin, WEI De-Quan

      2018,55(1):0154-0158

      Abstract:

      The effects of core offset, dielectric constants of core and embedding medium as well as incident light direction on the absorption and scattering properties of gold nanotubes with a nonconcentric core are theoretically studied by the finite difference time domain method. The numerical results show that the absorption and scattering spetra red shift and the absorption-scattering ratio increases with increasing core offset distant of the inner core from the nanotube centre. Moreover, the absorption-scattering ratio also increases with the increased core dielectric constant or the decreased dielectric constant of embedding medium. When the incident light direction is parallel to core offset direction, the greater absorption-scattering ratio appears as the position of the core is close to the incident light, but the ratio is smaller than that one when the incident light direction is perpendicular to offset direction as the core offest is given.

      2018,55(6):1287-1291

      Abstract:

      The carbon dots solution was prepared by the microwave method using citric acid and polyethylene glycol 200 as raw materials, which was characterized by laser dynamic light scattering, XRD, UV, TEM and fluorescence spectrophotometer. The experimental results show that the carbon dots produced are approximate spherical with better dispersity and without reunion phenomenon, and their sizes are about 5 nm. At the optimum excitation wavelength of 363 nm, the emission wavelength is 418 nm. With the increase of temperature, the emission peak position of the carbon dots solution does not move, but the intensity of fluorescence declines significantly. There is a good linear relationship between the fluorescence intensity and temperature, R2=0.9895. The carbon dots sensitive to temperature are expected to be used in some devices of fluorescent material of displaying and the measurement of surface temperature.

      LU Min, YU Dong-Hai, LIU Chang-Ju

      2017,54(1):147-155

      Abstract:

      Mechanical properties and micro-structure fracture mechanism of tungsten nanowires with crystal orientation of [110],[112] and [111] have been investigated with molecular dynamics and embedded atom methods. Simultaneously common neighbor analysis, center symmetry parameters and coordination number has been employed to analysis the evolution of structure. It is concluded that different crystal orientation nanowires have different characters. The elastic modulus, yield strain, yield strength and the fracture stress is decreasing in the sequence of[111], [110]and [112] crystal orientations. It also reveal that all of the stress-strain curves are classified into four stages: elastic stage, damage stage, yielding stage and failure stage. It concluded that crystal orientation has slightly impact on the elastic modulus but has great effect on tensile strength, yield strength and ductility. Interestingly, hardening stage has been found in tungsten nanowire with crystal orientation of [112] at yielding stage. That is to say the strain increase with the stess increase in the hardening stage, the nanowire with crystal orientation of [112] has the trend that recover its capability in strength, but consequently result in the least ductility. In the end the tensile failure mechanisms of the three nanowires have been summarized.

      WAN Li-Juan, YANG Ming

      2017,54(3):605-610

      Abstract:

      g-C3N4 and P25 organic-inorganic composite with varying the content of g-C3N4 has been synthesized through facile mixing and heating method. The composite was characterized by X-ray diffraction, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) and UV-vis diffuse reflection spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and BET surface area measurements. The activity of composite photocatalyst g-C3N4-P25 with 60% or 80% g-C3N4 for photoreduction of CO2 is higher than that of either single-phase g-C3N4 or P25 under visible light irradiation. The as-prepared organic-inorganic composite exhibits an improved photocatalytic activity due to enhancement of electron–hole separations both at the interface and in the semiconductors.

      2018,55(4):827-832

      Abstract:

      The ZnTiO3/TiO2 composite photocatalysts with high photocatalytic activity were synthesized by hydrothermal treatment of the [Ti4O9]2ˉ nanosheets after it was adjusted to a desired pH value with a 3 mol/L HCl solution and a 3 mol/L NaOH solution in the present of hexamethylenetetramine and Zn(NO3)2. The [Ti4O9]2ˉ nanosheets were prepared by using the layered tetratitanate K2Ti4O9 as the processor. First, the K2Ti4O9 sample was converted into a protonic tetratitanate H2Ti4O9 by exchanging K+ of K2Ti4O9. And then the H2Ti4O9 was mixed with the triethanolamine (TEAOH) to obtain the TEA+-intercalated tetratitanate compound. Finally, the TEA+-intercalated tetratitanate compound was dispersed in massive amounts of distilled water to obtain the [Ti4O9]2ˉ nanosheets. The structures and morphologies of the ZnTiO3/TiO2 composite photocatalysts were investigated by using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron diffraction microscopy (SEM). Furthermore, the photocatalytic activities of the synthesized ZnTiO3/TiO2 composite photocatalysts were also characterized. The experimental results revealed that the ZnTiO3/TiO2 composite photocatalyst obtained at the value of pH = 7.0 exhibits the higher photocatalytic activity.

      2017,54(5):1062-1066

      Abstract:

      In this paper, the phase of electromagnetic field distribution in the cavity is regulated through movements of the metal wall of a rectangular waveguide, which can avoid the inhomogeneous heating caused by the uneven distribution of electromagnetic field in the rectangular waveguide. And the time varying medium method based on space coordinate transformation is proposed to calculate the moving boundary problem, which has a significant effect on solving the moving boundary problem of large industrial microwave cavities. A single mode BJ-22 wave guide heating system is used as the reference in this paper to analyze impacts of short circuit plane position on microwave heating uniformity. Experiments and calculation results show that the uniformity of microwave heating can be greatly improved by regulating of short circuit plane position, and the space coordinate transformation method can be used to calculate the moving boundary of the microwave cavity.

    • Study on the Supercapacitance Performance of Graphene Oxide-pristine SWNT composites

      CHEN Jian-Yu

      2017,54(1):156-160

      Abstract:

      Graphene Oxide-Pristine SWNT composites were fabricated using graphene oxide(GO) as a surfactant to directly disperse pristine SWNT, followed by a freeze-drying method of the sample. The morphology, structure, component and electrochemical property of the compounds were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and electrochemical measurements. The results showed that the electrochemical properties of the compounds were significantly improved due to the insertion of SWNTs into a GO matrix. Through changing the ratio between SWNTs and graphene oxide, the sample corresponding to a SWNT ratio of 10% showed the best supercapacitor property. At such a optimized mixing ratio, the specific capacitance of the nanocomposite was 155 F·g-1 at a current of 0.5A·g-1 in the KOH aqueous electrolyte of 6 mol·L-1 , which was 1.9-fold higher than that of pure graphene oxide (81.5F·g-1). These results clearly demonstrate that GO-SWNT composites prepared by our present simple method is very promising for next generation high-performance energy storage devices.

      WANG Yong, WU Shuang, DENG Ai-Hong, WANG Kang, WANG Ling, LU Xiao-Bo, ZHANG Yuan-Yuan

      2016,53(6):1345-1348

      Abstract:

      Abstract: In this paper, the 100 keV helium ions were implanted in tungsten. The behaviour of helium and the evolution of the related defect have also been studied as a function of helium fluence by slow positron beam analysis (SPBA). The experimental results indicated that helium ions irradiation under different helium fluence introduced the same vacancy-type defects on the basis of the phenomenon that the S-W date present the same linear distribution. Moreover, with the increment of helium fluence, the concentration of vacancy-type defects in the samples increased correspondingly. It was also found that the S parameter of the sample annealed had a significant change by comparing with other samples without annealing. The result suggested that vacancy-type defects were more likely to be affected by thermal treatment than other influencing factors such as fluence.

      SHI Yun-Long, LAO Yuan-Xia, WANG Ling, ZHANG Hai-Bing, DENG Ai-Hong, WANG Yuan

      2016,53(6):1340-1344

      Abstract:

      In this paper, Er2O3 films are prepared in mixing atmosphere by radio frequency magnetron sputtering method. The phase structures, surface and cross-section morphologies of Er2O3films are characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM), respectively. The results show that the phase structure of the pure Er2O3 film is still stable under the annealed temperature of 500℃. However, with the annealing temperature increasing, the monoclinic phase of the Er2O3 film can transform into cubic phase at 700℃. In addition, for the Er2O3 film with He containing, the degree of crystallinity may be affected by He atoms. He bubbles can not be formed with small amount of He doped in, and the diffraction peak of the Er2O3 film decreased obviously comparing with that of the pure Er2O3 film. As the content of the doped He atoms increase, the monoclinic phase of the Er2O3 film becomes more stable under the high internal pressure due to the forming of He bubbles.
