The irradiation degradation of selected estrogens quinestrol (QS) , norethindrone (NET) and dienestrol (DS) were evaluated by electron beam . Processes using electron beam can efficiently degradate QS, NETand DS, usually at reaction dosage lower than 6KGy. Especially remarkable is the high degradation efficiency shown by oxygen saturation which is extremely favored by acidic environment. The order of the degradation rate: DS > NET> QS by different analysis methods such as HPLC. Among electron beam irradiation carried out, higher removal of 90% from solution was observed. In addition, the estrogenic activity of QS, NET and DS was carried out by rotifer test.

The polarization phenomenon occurs when the sunlight is scattered by atmospheric molecules. As a result, there is a polarization pattern in the sky. An amount of research shows that many nature insects can derive orientation information from this pattern, such as bees and ants. The fundamental polarization pattern in the sky is presented. The characters and the orientation mechanism of the nature insects are discussed. The basic principle of designing the polarization skylight navigation sensor is explained. The domestic and foreign relevant researches and application situation of this new navigation method are summarized in details. In the end, the characters of application fields and its application prospect are previewed.

2,2',3,3',4,4',5,5',6,6'-bromdiphenyl ether (BDE-209) solutions were irradiated with ultraviolet (UV) and electron beams. Organic compounds were fully removed by each type of radiation. The absorbed energy of the ionizing radiation (electron beams) needed for removal was much lower than that of UV photocatalysis. BDE-209 removal using the ionizing radiation was accelerated drastically by dosage. It is suggested that pH value of solution affect the decomposition rates. Radiolysis with the high pH value showed consistently high rate and high efficiency of BDE-209 removal.

3D face sample is an important data platform for model training, algorithm design. Subject to the constraint of data acquisition equipment the size of current 3D face databases are relatively small and insufficient. To solve this problem, this paper presents a modeling way for generating 3D novel samples based on surface stitching. First we use morphable model to build a global model. Then, we replace each patch of the global model based on surface stitching. We demonstrate that with appropriate choice of local models it is possible to reliably generate new realistic face samples.

The traditional craniofacial reconstruction methods construct the face shape according to the soft tissue thickness measured at a sparse set of landmarks on the skull. But the landmarks are difficult to detect and generally need human interactive assistance. The quantity and position of the landmarks lack for uniform definition. We propose an automatic craniofacial reconstruction method based on a dense deformable model. To construct the model, hundreds of skull and face samples are acquired by CT scanner. A dense mesh registration algorithm is proposed to build the point-to-point correspondences of the samples. Based on the aligned samples, the deformable model is constructed. For a given skull, the reconstructed face is obtained by a model matching procedure. Experimental results indicate that the deformable model has good performance for craniofacial reconstruction.

The batch removal of dye from textile dyeing wastewater by using nanooxides decorated multiwalled carbon nanotubes was studied under electron beam conditions. The effect of different nanooxides decorated multiwalled carbon nanotubes content and irradiation dosage was also investigated. The color removal efficiency was 94.9% in dose of 17.5kGy. The colour removal efficiency with Fe2O3 decorated multiwalled carbon nanotubes was similar to with TiO2 decorated multiwalled carbon nanotubues. The COD removal efficiency was 52.5% in the dose of 14.0kGy. When the irradiation dose of 17.5kGy, the COD removal efficiency was 98.2% with TiO2 decorated multiwalled carbon nanotubes.Overall, the study demonstrated that nanooxides decorated multiwalled carbon nanotubes can effectively remove color and COD from aqueous solution under irradiation.
