Driving Mechanism of Cotton Comber's Detaching Roller Based on Time-Sharing Unidirectional Drive

The high-speed reciprocating motion of a detaching roller limits the velocity of a cotton comber and affects the quality of comber slivers. The article has proposed a controllable time-sharing unidirectional hybrid drive mechanism after analyzing detaching roller＇s current numerical control drive method. The analysis focuses on the detaching roller motion required according to cotton comber＇s velocity and process. The double-servo motors of the mechanism consists of differential gear trains. The mechanism addresses the problem of increased servo motor power,and failure of promptly responded to the positive inversion process of mechanism driven by servo motors. A velocity calculation model of the detaching roller controllable drive mechanism will be generated by using superposition method and design of differential gear trains. The accuracy of the model will be verified using the test platform. This study has presented a reliable and practical high-speed drive mechanism and can be a reference to future studies on high-speed reciprocating motion drive.     

Re-mention of an old neurodegenerative disease: Alzheimer’s disease

Alzheimer’s disease(AD),the most common form of neuropsychiatric disorder,is characterized by neuronal degeneration and inexorably progressing dementia,especially in the elderly population.With a rapidly aging population in both developed and developing countries,AD has emerged as one of the largest growing problems worldwide.Current drugs improve the symptoms of AD,but do not have any profound intervention to delay its onset.Thus,understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying the genes tied to AD will be crucial to the development of therapeutic targets.This review will summarize the aetiology,pathology,and the evidence for the genetic components in AD,discuss the proposed amyloid cascade and the following tau hyperphosphorylation hypothesises,oxidative stress mediated neuronal cell death,as well as the function of Retromer complex during the developing of AD.Our laboratory’s current research progress and the challenges that still remained will be also highlighted.     

Lightning electromagnetic field generated by grounding electrode considering soil ionization

A circuit model with lumped time-variable parameter is proposed to calculate the transient characteristic of grounding electrode under lightning current, which takes into consideration the dynamic and nonlinear effect of soil ionization around the grounding electrode. The ionization phenomena in the soil are simulated by means of time-variable parameters under appropriate conditions. The generated electromagnetic field in the air is analyzed by using electrical dipole theory and image theory when the lightning current flows into the grounding electrode. The influence of soil ionization on the electromagnetic field is investigated.     

How A Later Scene in Hamlet Makes Use of An Earlier One

Hamlet,the first of the great tragedies,is generally regarded as Shakespeare’s most popular play on the stage,for it has the qualities of a "blood-and-thunder" thriller and a philosophical exploration of life and death.The play opens with Hamlet,Prince of Denmark,appearing in a mood of world-weariness occasioned by his father’s recent death and by his mother’s hasty remarriage with Claudius,his father’s brother.Shakespeare is good at describing the characters,controlling the languages,and he is a master to arrange the scene of drama,as well.He knows how to make use of an earlier scene in the later scene.I will explain it from the the death of Polonius and the scenes of Ophelia.

Trace determination of zirconium using anodic adsorptive voltammetry at a carbon paste electrode modified with multi-walled carbon nanotubes

A carbon paste electrode modified with multi-walled carbon nanotubes （MWCNT） was prepared and the determination of ultra trace amount of zirconium based on the anodic adsorptive voltammetry of the zirconium-calcium-alizarin red S mix-polynuclear complex is described in this paper for the first time. The results showed that the sensitivity and the selectivity of the method are excellent. The second derivative linear scan voltammograms of the complex were recorded by polarographic analyzer from 200 to 1200 mV （vs. SCE） and it was found that the complex can be adsorbed on the surface of the electrode, yielding a peak at about 840 mV, corresponding to the oxidation of ARS in the complex. The peak current increases linearly with Zr （IV） concentration in the range of 6.0×10^-12--6.0×10^-11 mol. L^-1 （accumulation time 120 s）, 6.0×10^-11--2.0×10^-9 mol. L-1 （accumulation time 90 s） and 2.0×10^-9--1.0×10^-7 mol. L^-1 （accumulation time 60 s） and the detection limit （S/N = 3） is 2.0×10^-12 mol. L^-1 （accumulation time 180 s）. The procedure has been successfully applied to the determination of zirconium in the ore samples.     

Electrooxidation of Mn(Ⅱ) on Pb-Sb-As Electrode in Sulfuric Acid

The electrooxidation of Mn(Ⅱ) on Pb-Sb-As alloy electrode in sulfuric acid has been investigated.In order to make the two steps of indirect electrosynthesis of benzaldehyde carried out in the same sulfuric acid concentration and also obtain high current efficiency of Mn(Ⅱ) to Mn(Ⅲ) and high yield of Mn(Ⅲ) oxidizing toluene to benzaldehyde in the mean time,the electrooxidation of Mn(Ⅱ) in 60% H2SO4 has been studied.Experimental results show that high current efficiency of Mn(Ⅲ) (about 75%) is obtained in 60%H2SO4 at 60℃.The reason affecting the current efficiency of Mn(Ⅲ) is discussed,and it is the coordination of sulfuric acid concentration and electrolytic temperature.The law is found that it is suitable for electrolysis at low temperature when sulfuric acid concentration is low and at high temperature when sulfuric acid concentration is high.     

Subspecies in Przewalski’s gazelle Procapra przewalskii and its conservation implication

Przewalski’s gazelle Procapra przewalskii is an endangered species endemic to China. A question remains about subspecific variation in this species. Skulls of Przewalski’s gazelle collected from its current remnant ranges around the Qinghai Lake in combination with those collected prior to the 20th century were measured and analyzed using Hierarchical Cluster Analysis in order to clarify the question. Unexpectedly, P. p. diversicornis, extirpated from its historic range, has spread to the Qinghai Lake region where it has replaced nominotypical P. p. przewalskii and is now restricted to a few small isolated populations around the lake. We discuss the causes of this unexpected replacement. In this study, we discuss the possibility of a new form, possibly a new subspecies, in the Guide Basin, adjacent to Qinghai Lake; it is unclear whether the new form has long existed and was only discovered in recent years, or whether it evolved in recent times due to the geographical isolation and anthropogenic landscape features. The study sheds light on the processes of microevolution and subspeciation in Procapra przewalskii, and based on the findings, we propose measures for conservation strategies for Przewalski’s gazelle.

Polymer Photovoltaic Cells

Polymer photovoltaic cells （PPVCs） have attracted much attention recently because of its easy fabrication, low cost and possibility to make flexible devices. PPVC is composed of a conjugated polymer/C60 blend layer （photosensitive layer） sandwiched between a transparent ITO electrode and a metal electrode. When a light through ITO electrode irradiates on the photosensitive layer, the photons with appropriate energy will be absorbed by the conjugated polymer （CP） and excitons （electron-hole pair） are produced. The excitons move to the interface of CP/60 where the electrons transfer to the LUMO of C60 and holes leave on the HOMO of the CP. The separated electrons migrate through the C60 network to and are collected by the metal electrode, and the holes migrate through the CP network to and are collected by the ITO electrode, so that the photocurrent and photovoltage are attained.

Design and Implementation of Hierarchy Cache Using Pagefile

This paper presents a novel hierarchy cache architecture for the purpose of optimizing IO performance. The main idea of the hierarchy cache is to use a few megabytes of RAM and a pagefile to form a two-level cache architecture. The pagefile is equivalent to the cache disk in DCD(Disk Caching Disk). The pagefile outperforms data disks, because data are accessed in different units and different ways. Small writes are collected in the RAM cache first, and data will be transferred to the pagefile in large writes later. When the system is idle, it will destage data from the pagefile to data disks. The performance test results show that the hierarchy cache can improve IO performance dramatically for small writes, and the mail server using the hierarchy cache driver can handle transactions about 2.2 times faster than the normal mail server. The hierarchy cache is implemented as a filter driver, so it‘s transparent to the current Windows 2000/Windows XP operating system.

Application of EEG multipole model in the diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease

In order to find the electroencephalogram (EEG) characteristic parameters typical of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and explore an effective diagnostic method, a new mobile current multipole model was proposed to simulate the AD patient’s cortical dipole source activities. The indicators of goodness of fit (GOF) and DtononD (DD) were calculated from EEG samples to evaluate the performance of this model. Relevant results showed that this multipole model with higher GOF values and larger DD change well fitted the pathological electrical activities of cortical neurons aroused by AD’s extended sulcus and gyrus in the cerebral cortex. Meanwhile, the products of DD mean & standard variance were found in a clear linear correlation with the diagnostic data of mini-mental state examination (MMSE) used in AD clinics. Furthermore, by tracing this multipole model’s indicators in typical patients and contrasting with the functional magnetic resonance image (fMRI) as AD progressed, we suggested that the DD index may be suitable for monitoring the AD developments as a new diagnostic parameter.

Numerical study and prediction of nuclear contaminant transport from Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant in the North Pacific Ocean

On March 11,2011,a large earthquake and subsequent tsunami near the east coast of Japan destroyed the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant(FD-NPP),causing a massive release of nuclear contaminants.In this paper,a Pacific basin-wide physical dispersion model is developed and used to investigate the transport of nuclear contaminants.The Pacific circulation model,based on the Regional Ocean Modeling System(ROMS),is forced with air-sea flux climatology derived from COADS(the Comprehensive Ocean-Atmosphere Data Set).It is shown that ocean current dominates nuclear contaminant transport.Following the Kuroshio Extension and North Pacific Current,nuclear contaminants at the surface will move eastward in the Pacific as far as 140°W,thereafter dividing into two branches.For the south branch,nuclear contaminants will be transported westward by the equatorial current,and can reach the Philippines after 10 years’ time.In contrast,the north branch will arrive at the American west coast and then migrate to the Bering Sea.At 200 m water depth,part of the nuclear materials will move southwestward along with deep ocean circulation,which could potentially reach the east coast of Taiwan.The other part will move to the west coast of America and separate into two branches.One will move northward along the west coast of Alaska,while the other will travel southward to the Hawaiian Islands.The transport of radiation contaminants below 500 m is slow,and will primarily remain in the central Pacific.The physical dispersion model results show that high concentrations of the radioactive isotope cesium-137(137 Cs) will move eastward and reach the central Pacific and west coast of North America in two and eight years,respectively.The sea areas influenced by the nuclear contaminants continue to expand,while peak concentrations decrease in the North Pacific.     

Precise positioning of the Chang’E-3 lunar lander using a kinematic statistical method

A kinematic statistical method is proposed to determine the position for Chang’E-3(CE-3) lunar lander.This method uses both ranging and VLBI measurements to the lander for a continuous arc,combing with precise knowledge about the motion of the moon as provided by planetary ephemeris,to estimate the lander’s position on the lunar surface with high accuracy.Accuracy analyses are carried out with simulation data using the software developed at Shanghai Astronomical Observatory in this study to show that measurement errors will dominate the position accuracy.Application of lunar digital elevation model(DEM) as constraints in the lander positioning is also analyzed.Simulations show that combing range/doppler and VLBI data,single epoch positioning accuracy is at several hundred meters level,but with ten minutes data accumulation positioning accuracy is able to be achieved with several meters.Analysis also shows that the information given by DEM can provide constraints in positioning,when DEM data reduce a 3-dimensional positioning problem to 2-dimensional.Considering the Sinus Iridum,CE-3 lander’s planned landing area,has been observed with dedicated details during the CE-1 and CE-2 missions,and its regional DEM model accuracy may be higher than global models,which will certainly support CE-3’s lander positioning.     

Develop hydroenergy resources and protect earth environment

Energy is a driving force behind the progress of human civilization. Mainly depend on the current human society of non-renewable fossil energy sources, such as coal and oil, its increasing demand. Gradually reduce the reserves, the contradiction between supply and demand becoming increasingly prominent. With the process of human history has moved forward with the depletion of fossil energy will eventually be unable to sustainable use. The total hydropower resources are limited, but it is renewable, clean energy, its energy is infinite. Therefore, the full use of limited water resources and slow down the depletion of fossil energy process, is to improve and protect the earth＇ s ecology and environment, one of the most realistic measures.
