Predictability of Plastic Parts Behaviour Made from Rapid Manufacturing

One of the most important issues to resolve in parts manufactured from rapid manufacturing (RM) technologies is to know their behavior working under real conditions. Total quality manufacturing (TQM) is only possible if mechanical properties are well known in the design stage depending on the processing parameters. This work is mainly focused on testing of several samples made with different selective laser sintering (SLS) parameters and technologies. This procedure is the starting point to establish a basis for designing for RM and the standardization of RM testing. The experiments and the analysis of variance (ANOVA) analyzed the effects of several factors on mechanical properties. The SLS technologies were 3DSystem and EOS. The results show which factor has a large effect on the variables and the interaction between them. The conclusions are very useful for developing rules for designing (designing for RM) and creating new standard rules (ISO, AISI, and DIN) for RM materials and parts testing. The ANOVA gives a better knowledge of the effects of these factors and eliminates unimportant parameters.     

Fluctuation and response in biology

In 1905, Albert Einstein proposed that the forces that cause the random Brownian motion of a particle also underlie the resistance to macroscopic motion when a force is applied. This insight, of a coupling between fluctuation (stochastic behavior) and responsiveness (non-stochastic behavior), founded an important branch of physics. Here we argue that his insight may also be relevant for understanding evolved biological systems, and we present a ‘fluctuation–response relationship’ for biology. The relationship is consistent with the idea that biological systems are similarly canalized to stochastic, environmental, and genetic perturbations. It is also supported by in silico evolution experiments, and by the observation that ‘noisy’ gene expression is often both more responsive and more ‘evolvable’. More generally, we argue that in biology there is (and always has been) an important role for macroscopic theory that considers the general behavior of systems without concern for their intimate molecular details.     

Linkage of Tunisian autosomal recessive Duchenne-like muscular dystrophy to the pericentromeric region of chromosome 13q.

Autosomal recessive Duchenne-like muscular dystrophy (DLMD) is a severe dystrophic myopathy. The incidence is unknown because of its clinical similarity to Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). Three highly inbred DLMD families from Tunisia were analysed for chromosomal linkage using 135 polymorphic microsatellite markers. A significant lod score of z = 9.15 at theta = 0.03 was found with the 13q12 locus D13S115. Two additional 13q12 markers, D13S143 and D13S120, also gave significant lod scores. Therefore, the primary DLMD defect gene lies in the pericentrometric region of chromosome 13q.     

甜菜上一种球状病毒分离物的特性研究

由田间自然感病和甜菜黑色焦枯病株，坏死黄脉型病株及无明显症 甜菜上分离到一种球状病毒，病毒呈二十面体，直径约25nm，有空心和实心2种粒子，具有分子量为24．7kd的外壳蛋白和长度分别为3．8kb,1.4kb,1.1kb的3个双链RNA组分，该病毒具有较强的稳定性和侵染性，蚜虫不能传毒，土壤诱发可传播，易通过汁液摩擦接种侵染多种植物；但回接甜菜只偶尔出现个别褪绿斑或不规则褪绿斑，并不表现田间症状，表明该病毒与甜菜黑色焦枯病等病害无直接关系。

排污权不是权利--评《国务院办公厅关于进一步推进排污权有偿使用和

许多人认为排污权是一种权利。但基于污染物的性质、权利客体的要求以及污染物减排的目标,排污只是一种客观事实,并不是权利的依据,排污权不是一种权利。因此,排污权也不能有偿使用和交易,只有如此才能更好地减排。
