MnZn ferrites and their magnetic, electrical, and optical properties make them highly suitable in a number of applications. These ferrites are used in electronic applications, magnetic fluids, and household appliances such as washing machines, refrigerators, and microwave ovens. This paper focuses on a hydrothermal method used to prepare a bayberry spherical manganese–zinc ferrite (Mn0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4), its surface was coated with dopamine (Mn0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4@PDA) and then carbonized to obtain the core–shell structure C-Mn0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4@PDA. Preliminary results show that carbon-coated manganese–zinc ferrite with saturation magnetic properties and coercivity increased from 99 emu and 66.01 Oe to 138 emu and 104.85 Oe, respectively. In addition, the carbonized Mn0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4@PDA (C-Mn0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4@PDA) exhibited favorable microwave absorbing performance with minimum reflection loss (RLmin) of − 17.56 dB and also revealed that the broadest effective absorption bandwidth (RLmin ≤ − 10 dB) 5.36 GHz (11.70–17.06 GHz) can be achieved at 2.0 mm.

Loss factor is one of the most significant parameters of Statistical Energy Analysis (SEA) which represents the damping loss characteristics of a system and indicates the ability of its vibration energy consumption. In order to estimate it, the power input method (PIM) and the impulse response decay method (IRDM) have become widely used especially when the object of study is made of Fiber Reinforced Plastics (FRP) of which dynamic interaction is really complicated. Numerical simulation is also applied to analyze the loss factor of the spring-damping-system with single degree of freedom (SDOF) using MATLAB to introduce the identification procedure of PIM and IRDM. With the comparison of the methods, the analytical study indicates these techniques are effective for the estimation of loss factor. This paper focuses on an experimental approach to get the SEA loss factor of FRP plate and the test investigations are performed in detail. The requirements and limitations of each method applied are discussed and PIM is a better solution dealing with this kind of the composite material. The loss factor of test specimen is obtained to provide a valuable reference for the prediction and control of vibration and noise of yachts with SEA.

The approach used to calculate structure surface vibration velocity and sound pressure level (SPL) is provided. Then structural vibration model and panels acoustic contribution are combined to investigate sound radiation from a vibrating structure. As for the shipboard cabin where the mariners work with high level requirement of the SPL, it’s necessary to build the boundary element model of shipboard cabin by obtaining the structural mode information and finding out characteristics of vibration velocity. Considering the effect of thin-shell-structure consoles and switchboards, the acoustic field inside the shipboard cabin and the panel contribution to the cabin are analyzed. The peak frequencies in the sound pressure spectrum at the field points and their corresponding panels with larger contributions to the cabin are found. Based on the modal shape analysis, damping is adopted to inhibit the predominant modes. In front of the console and the switchboard where the engineer on watch operate, at the height of one’s head with sitting posture and standing posture, four field points are laid out respectively. Then, the most obvious peak frequency is picked out as the frequency of attention. Vibration reducing measures like laying damping coatings and modular floating floors and so on are adopted to reduce the noise radiation of the plate in the ship cabin. Through the deck vibration transmission experiment, the damping performance of the modular floating floor is ascertained. A comprehensive assessment of the noise label in the cabin is needed to ensure that the sound pressure level meet the relevant requirements of the ship general rules.

Tumor cells have higher rates of glucose uptake and aerobic glycolysis to meet energy demands for proliferation and metastasis. The characteristics of increased glucose uptake, accompanied with aerobic glycolysis, has been exploited for the diagnosis of cancers. Although much progress has been made, the mechanisms regulating tumor aerobic glycolysis and energy production are still not fully understood. Here, we demonstrate that Pim-2 is required for glycolysis and energy production in colorectal tumor cells. Our results show that Pim-2 is highly expressed in colorectal tumor cells, and may be induced by nutrient stimulation. Activation of Pim-2 in colorectal cells led to increase glucose utilization and aerobic glycolysis, as well as energy production. While knockdown of Pim-2 decreased energy production in colorectal tumor cells and increased their susceptibility to apoptosis. Moreover, the effects of Pim-2 kinase on aerobic glycolysis seem to be partly dependent on mTORC1 signaling, because inhibition of mTORC1 activity reversed the aerobic glycolysis mediated by Pim-2. Our findings suggest that Pim-2-mediated aerobic glycolysis is critical for monitoring Warburg effect in colorectal tumor cells, highlighting Pim-2 as a potential metabolic target for colorectal tumor therapy.

Then based on the fuzzy rules, the optimal values of decomposing furnace temperature is given, and it is modified by the current of the rotary kiln motor. The simulation results and the practical application results both showed that the system is practical and effective in a certain extent.

Aiming at the vibration characteristics of cylindrical shell, the different cases of cylindrical shell are analyzed through FEM, and the cases are determined according to the circular angle. The free modality results show that with the same dimension of shell, the modal shape of cases are similar to each other, the frequency increased with the increase of circular angle, but for circular angle (say 90°), the increase trend becomes lower as the frequency difference ratio is lower. In excited vibration analysis, there is a relationship between acceleration peak value and circular angle, which is illustrated by a non-dimension parameter.

The similitude requirement of excited load was deduced to maintain the consistent vibration between scaled model and prototype structure, based on the modal theory of multi-DOFs systems. The similitude of load frequency was another demand to maintain the consistent vibration, with the similitude of structure size and load magnitude. The dynamic similitude problem of a liquid tank was studied by finite element method and test analysis respectively. The results show that the similitude of load frequency is the insurance for the consistency of prototype and scaled model structures vibration. In a case the magnitude error of displacement is 8% to 10%, and the displacement and acceleration have all changed distinctly without the similitude of load frequency. All the results indicate that the similitude of load frequency is the key factor to analyze the scaled model dynamics correctly.

As disinfection by-products, the taste and odor (T&O) compounds were produced by chlorination at the end of water treatment. The existence of T&O compounds causes the pipe water with unpleasant odor and reducing water quality. Based on the latest research achievements at home and abroad, the characteristics and formation mechanisms of typical T&O compounds produced by chlorination are introduced. The new analytical method of electronic nose is also expounded. In addition, the common control technologies, such as pre-oxidation, activated carbon adsorption and bio-membrane, are reviewed.

The experiment was carried out to measure the effect of membrane treatment on the kinetics of chlorine decay in PE pipes in the water distribution systems. The results revealed that water had the potential to form halomethane compounds with chloroform being the most dominant. The formation of THMs is no longer relatively exponential relationship with the reaction time, but also decided by complex elements, including DOC, pH, conductivity, flow rate, and several other indexes. Since Chloroform (CHCl3) has the maximum concentration of the four THMs, clear understanding of its causes, pathway and mechanism will help to regulate and solve the THMs problem.

A method which can be used to analyze and separate the vibration signals of diesel engine is proposed. The vibration signals contain a great deal of information about the engine’s fault state, and it is hard to obtain the fault characteristic parameters because of the complex mechanical movement and operating conditions. Study on vibration by fourth order blind identification is carried out in this paper. And FOBI model that estimate the separation matrix by independent component analysis is established and applied to diesel engine vibration to separate the different signals. The results show that signals of different characteristics can be separated perfectly. This method can be used as the pre-processing step to obtain the fault characteristic parameters.

The liquid tanks FEM model is made in ANSYS, and some investigation is done on its sloshing mode and the shape of free surface, under different filling ratio conditions. After comparing the tanks without baffles with the one with baffles, it is found that the sloshing mode, basic frequencies and free surface shape are all affected by baffles. And the same free surface shape appears in different liquid tanks, but in different mode. It also can be concluded that there are close mode frequencies in symmetrical tanks.

For disposal of the shipwrecks in the coastal and inland waterways timely and properly to ensure navigable vessels safely and smoothly, the process and mechanism of navigable vessels collision with shipwrecks was analyzed and shipwreck accident probabilistic risk assessment model was established based on event tree analysis.

Huanglian (Rhizoma Coptidis) as a popular herb has been used for the treatment of various diseases such as diarrhea, eye inflammation and women's abdominal ailments. Alkaloids are considered to be responsible for its pharmacological effects. In this investigation, Huanglian and its six alkaloids (coptisine, epiberberine, berberine, jateorrhizine, palmatine and magnoflorine) were systematically evaluated for their inhibition of six cytochrome P450 isoforms (CYP1A2, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6 and CYP3A4) in human liver microsomes by the LC-MS/MS method. Huanglian showed the strongest inhibition of CYP2D6, followed by CYP1A2 and CYP3A4_T. The IC50 values were 5.8 µg/mL, 36.8 µg/mL and 59.2 µg/mL, respectively. Of the constituents tested, coptisine and epiberberine showed strong inhibition of CYP2D6 with IC50 values of 4.4 µm and 7.7 µm; berberine, jateorrhizine and palmatine showed weak inhibition of CYP2D6 with IC50 values of 45.5 µm, 49.4 µm and 92.6 µm, respectively; jateorrhizine showed moderate inhibition of CYP3A4_T with an IC50 value of 13.3 µm; coptisine showed weak inhibition of CYP1A2 with an IC50 value of 37.3 µm. In addition, activation was observed in coptisine/CYP2C9 and palmatine/CYP2C9/CYP2C19. Other CYP450 isoforms were not affected markedly by the six alkaloids. In conclusion, Huanglian showed in vitro inhibition of CYP2D6, the inhibition might be contributed mostly by protoberberine alkaloids, especially coptisine and epiberberine. Herb–drug interactions may occur through the CYP2D6 inhibition. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

The equations of the structure motions are accomplished in terms of the displacement form, and the liquid formulations are expressed by pressure, with or without considering the effect of sloshing. The unknown coefficients in the two domains are expanded into velocity potential and vibration functions by Galerkin's method. The coupled vibration of the elastic baffle with two sides' fluid, in a rigid tank, is also carried out by finite element method, which regards the structure and fluid element global degrees of freedoms as row index and column index, and the coupled matrix is assembled to the global matrix. Finally, the coupled frequencies of a simple supported beam and liquid are computed, which are in good agreement with the FEM results. The effects of the liquid filling height and beam flexibility on the slosh response are also investigated. The baffles with two sides' fluid vibration numerical results by the proposed FEM are compared with the test example, which agree well.

To assess the long-term effect and safety of non-occlusive intra-vas device (IVD) for male contraception in comparison with no-scalpel vasectomy (NSV).We conducted a follow-up investigation on 100 males who had received IVD and another 50 who had undergone NSV 6 years before. We compared the rates of sperm absence and complications between the two groups.Follow-up visits were successfully performed on 95 males (95%) of the IVD group and 44 (88%) of the NSV group. Pregnancy was not found in any of the cases. Spermatozoa (or = 5 x 10(6)/ml) were not detected in 87 cases (91.58%) in the IVD group and in 44 cases (95.45%) in the NSV group, with no significant differences between the two groups (P0.05). The rate of postoperative complications in the IVD group (11.58%) showed no significant difference from that of the NSV group (4.55%) (P0.05).IVD is as effective and safe as NSV for male contraception.

To observe the effect of Qihuang Decoction (QHD) on mRNA expression of apoptosis genes Bcl-2, Bax, and signal transduction molecules Caspase-3, 9 in intestinal mucosa epithelium of ischemia/ reperfusion (I/R) injured rats.Forty Wistar rats were randomized equally into 4 groups, the control group, the model group, the glutamine group, and the QHD group. Rats in the latter two groups were gastric infused with glutamine and QHD respectively for 3 days, but saline was infused instead to rats in the control group and model group. After then, except those in the control group intervened only by sham operation, rats were made into I/R injured model by 45 min occlusion of superior mesenteric artery followed by 1 h reperfusion. Immediately after modeling, mRNA expressions of Bcl-2, Bax, Caspase-3, and Caspase-9 in intestinal mucosa epithelium of rats were detected by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).Compared with the control group, mRNA expressions of Bcl-2, Bax, Caspase-3 and Caspase-9 were higher in the other three groups (P0.05). Compared with the model group, Bcl-2 mRNA expression was higher, while the expressions of the other three indices were lower in both the glutamine group and the QHD group (P0.05); and comparisons between the glutamine group and the QHD group showed a more depressed Bax mRNA expression (0.281 +/- 0.087 vs 0.350 +/- 0.053) and higher Bcl-2/Bax ratio (1.648 vs 1. 374) in the QHD group.QHD can reduce the I/R injury in the intestinal mucosa epithelium by inhibiting the cell apoptosis. The mechanism may be correlated with increased Bcl-2 mRNA expressions and decreased mRNA expressions of Bax, Caspase-3 and Caspase-9.

Among the various possible causes for drug interactions, pharmacokinetic factors such as inhibition of drug-metabolizing enzymes and transporters, especially cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoenzymes and P-glycoprotein (P-gp), are regarded as the most frequent and clinically important. Limonin is a widely used dietary supplement and one of the most prevalent citrus limonoids, which are known to have inhibitory effects on CYPs and P-gp. In this study, the in vitro inhibitory effects of limonin on the major human CYP isoenzymes (CYP1A2, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, and CYP3A4) activities in human liver microsomes were examined using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. The inhibitory effects of limonin on P-gp activity in a human metastatic malignant melanoma cell line WM-266-4 were examined using a calcein-AM fluorometry screening assay. It demonstrates that limonin has negligible inhibitory effects on human CYP1A2, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, and P-gp. However, potent inhibition of CYP3A4 by limonin is observed with IC50 values of 6.20 μM (CYP3A4/testosterone) and 19.10 μM (CYP3A4/midazolam). This finding has important implications with regard to food-drug interactions between limonin and several narrow therapeutic index drugs that are metabolized by CYP3A4.

To observe the effect of Qihuang Decoction (QHD) on epithelial cell apoptosis of ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injured intestinal mucosa in rat.The I/R injured intestinal mucosa rat model was established by clamping superior mesenteric artery (SMA) for 45 min and reperfusing for 60 min. The pathomorphological Changes and epithelial cell apoptosis in the injured intestinal mucosa were observed and compared among groups: the sham-operated group (A), the model group (B), the glutamine treated group (C) and the QHD treated group (D).pathomorphological examination showed that in group A, the intestinal villus was intact; in group B, the intestinal subepithelial space were dilated, and showed evident cleavage between the epithelial top and the lamina propria with bare capillaries, bleeding and ulceration; in group C and D, the above-mentioned pathomorphological changes were alleviated to some extents, appeared only in part of the villa, and the alleviation was more significant in group D than in group C. Chiu's scoring showed that the lowest score (zero) presented in group A and the highest presented in group B; scores in group C and D was significantly lower than that in group B (P0.05), but showed insignificant difference between the two groups (P0.05). Epithelial cell apoptosis detection showed that the least apoptosis rate presented in group A, and the highest in the group B; while in the group C, it lied between group A and B (all P0.05), and showed no statistical significance to group D (P0.05), though appeared a lowering trend.QHD could reduce the I/R injured intestinal epithelial mucosa, and its protective mechanism may be related to the inhibition on apoptosis of intestinal mucosal epithelial cells.

Checkpoint can store and recovery applications when faults happen and is becoming critical to large information systems. Unfortunately, existing checkpoint tools have some limitations such as: not transparent to applications, ignoring file system states, cluster checkpoint is not well supported, and so on. We present a light weight virtual container based cluster checkpoint. Firstly, a virtual container, IPG (Isolated Process Group), is designed to wrap all target applications together and produce checkpoint transparently and completely. Secondly, each IPG has its independent namespace built on an exclusively owned LV (Logical Volume), which can be checkpointed synchronously with the IPG’s memory to guarantee the consistency. Finally, distributed applications can be deployed on many IPGs and a cluster checkpoint protocol is presented to orchestrate all IPGs to produce global checkpoints. Experiments and evaluations results illustrate that no overhead will be introduced for applications running in IPGs, and our prototype system works more stable than the library base checkpoint tools.

To investigate the expressions and clinical implications of kruppel-like factor 6(KLF-6) and APC in human colorectal carcinoma.The expressions of KLF-6 and APC in tumor and normal tissues from 32 patients with colorectal carcinoma were investigated by RT-PCR and immunohistochemical technique.The expression rates of KLF-6 and APC mRNA were 37.5% and 34.3% in tumor tissue, 96.9% and 93.8% respectively in normal tissues (both P0.05). The expression rates of KLF-6 and APC protein were 28.1% and 25.0% in colorectal carcinomas, 81.3% and 84.43% respectively in normal tissues (both P0.05). There was a significant correlation between the expressions of KLF-6 and APC in colorectal carcinomas (P0.05). The expressions of KLF-6 and APC were significantly correlated with tumor differentiation, depth of infiltration, lymph node metastasis and clinical stage (P0.05).Down-regulations of KLF-6 and APC might play an important role in the carcinogenesis, development, metastasis of human colorectal carcinoma.
