Application of Electrical Resistance Tomography System to Monitor Gas/Liquid Two-Phase Flow in a Horizontal Pipe

The Electrical Resistance Tomography (ERT) technique possesses great potential in monitoring widely exiting industrial two/multi-phase flow. For vertical pipe flow and inclined pipe flow, some application studies with exciting results have been reported, but there is rarely a paper regarding the application of ERT to horizontal gas/liquid pipe flow. This paper addresses this issue and proposes a smart method, Liquid Level Detection method, to conventional ERT system. The enhanced ERT system using the new method can monitor horizontal pipe flow effectively and its application is no longer restricted by the flow conditions. Some experimental results from monitoring an air/water slug pipe flow are presented.

Snap-through and pull-in instabilities of an arch-shaped beam under an electrostatic loading

The snap-through and pull-in instabilities of the micromachined arch-shaped beams under an electrostatic loading are studied both theoretically and experimentally. The pull-in instability that results in a system collision with an electrode substrate may lead to a system failure and, thus, limits the system maximum displacement. The beam/plate structure with a flat initial configuration under an electrostatic loading can only experience the pull-in instability. With the different arch configurations, the structure may experience either only the pull-in instability or the snap-through and pull-in instabilities together. As shown in our computation and experiment, those arch-shaped beams with the snap-through instability have the larger maximum displacement compared with the arch-shaped beams with only the pull-in stability and those with the flat initial configuration. The snap-through occurs by exerting a fixed load, and the structure experiences a discontinuous displacement jump without consuming power. Furthermore, after the snap-through jump, the structures are demonstrated to have the capacity to withstand further electrostatic loading without pull-in. Those properties of consuming no power and increasing the structure deflection range without pull-in is very useful in microelectromechanical systems design, which can offer better sensitivity and tuning range.

双色激光场中激光强度和脉宽对线性多原子分子离子电离的影响

利用强激光场电离和离解分子来研究分子激发态的波包结构是强场物理的重要研究方向。利用短时指数传播子对称分割法和快速傅里叶变换技术。数值求解了一维含时Schr（oe）dinger方程，探讨了双色激光场中激光的基波和谐波强度之间的不同配比以及脉宽对线性多原子分子离子电离的影响。理论计算结果表明：基波和谐波的相对相位为π时，尽管随着激光的基波和谐波强度之间配比的变化，电离几率随原子间距变化的趋势基本保持不变，但在一定的激光基波强度下(1．2×10^13～1．2×10^15W／cm^2)，激光基波强度的变化可以明显

Upconversion luminescence and mechanisms of Tm3+/Yb3+-codoped oxyhalide tellurite glasses

To obtain efficient blue upconversion laser glasses, upconversion luminescence and mechanisms of Tm3+/Yb3+-codoped oxyhalide tellurite glasses were investigated under 980nm excitation. The results showed that upconversion blue and red emission intensities of Tm3+ first increase, reach its maximum at TM2O3% =0.1 mol%, and then decrease with increasing Tm2O3 content. The effect of TM2O3 content on upconversion intensity is discussed, and possible effect mechanisms are evaluated. The investigated results were conducing to increase upconversion luminescence efficiency of Tm3+. (c) 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

ScAlMgO_4晶体的生长缺陷

采用提拉法生长出φ30 mm×55 mm的ScAlMgO4晶体。在晶体生长过程中有轻微的挥发,粉末X射线衍射分析表明:挥发物质为MgO单相。运用扫描电镜、光学显微镜以及高分辨X射线衍射仪对晶体中的包裹物、开裂、生长条纹和小角晶界缺陷进行了研究。结果表明:温度梯度和热应力是形成晶体中缺陷的主要原因。通过合理设计温场,控制固-液界面的形状及冷却过程的降温速率,可以提高晶体的完整性。

盐角草（Salicornia europaea L.）体外再生体系及floral-dip转化系统的初步研究

盐角草（Salicornia europaea L.）属藜科盐角草属（Salicornia），是迄今已报道过的最为耐盐的真盐生植物之一。跟与其同属的海蓬子（Salicornia bigelovvi Torr.）相比, 它的分布更为广泛。它的种子含油丰富，因此具有发展为油料作物的潜力。此外，它也可以作为蔬菜和饲料。盐角草的组织培养工作为未来的转化研究和胁迫相关基因功能分析提供了有力的工具。本工作中，通过器官发生途径，建立了盐角草的体外再生体系。以完整的成熟种子为起始培养材料，在添TDZ 0.1 mg/L与NAA 1 mg/L的MS培养基上，暗培养三周后在下胚轴处形成愈伤组织，形成愈伤的平均频率为99％。愈伤组织在含TDZ 0.1 mg/L与NAA 1 mg/L的培养基上培养3－4周后分化出芽，分化频率约26.7%。采用2,4-D短时处理法结合添加NaCl，经过6－8周的培养获得了丛生芽，提高了再生频率。分化芽3周后转入含IBA 0.5 mg/L、KN 0.1 mg/L与0.05％活性炭的1/2 MS培养基，3周后生根形成完整植株。同时，本研究也进行了从直接不定芽途径建立盐角草再生体系的试验，但未获成功。 此外，本工作借鉴拟南芥的floral-dip转化法，对建立盐角草floral-dip转化系统进行了尝试。

草鱼野生和养殖群体间遗传变异的微卫星分析

运用微卫星标记对江苏境内草鱼(Ctenopharyngodon idella)一个野生群体(邗江群体)和两个养殖群体(淡水中心群体和无锡前洲群体)遗传多样性进行了分析.在10个座位中,每个座位检测到的等位基因数2～8个.有效等位基因数、多态信息含量、期望杂合度、平均表观杂合度均以邗江草鱼野生群体最高,分别为3.9、0.506 8、0.693 9、0.7;无锡前洲草鱼养殖群体最低,分别为2.2、0.179 6、0.523 5、0.528 6;淡水中心草鱼养殖群体各参数均介于两者之间,分别为3.5、0.290 2、0.541 8、0.542 9.以上结果表明:草鱼野生群体遗传多样性更为丰富,而草鱼养殖群体存在杂合度降低,遗传多样性下降的现象.邗江草鱼野生群体与淡水中心草鱼养殖群体和无锡前洲草鱼养殖群体间遗传分化系数分别为0.219和0.246,而两个草鱼养殖群体间遗传分化系数为0.034.这表明草鱼野生群体与草鱼养殖群体间分化严重,而草鱼养殖群体间分化微弱.各座位分化程度的χ2检验结果表明,10个座位中有GM18、MFW1-1、MFW1-2三个座位群体间分化达到极显著水平,GM03-2、MFW5两个座位群体间分化差异显著,其他座位分化不显著.针对每个座位对各群体进行Hardy-Weinberg平衡检验发现:由于草鱼养殖群体在GM03-1、GM03-2、GM18三个位点杂合子缺失,草鱼野生群体在位点GM19杂合子过剩而严重偏离平衡.实验表明:近交容易引起草鱼遗传多样性下降,纯合速度加快.
