Squeeze-film Effects in MEMS Devices with Perforated Plates for Small Amplitude Vibration

Squeeze-film effects of perforated plates for small amplitude vibration are analyzed through modified Reynolds equation (MRE). The analytical analysis reckons in most important influential factors: compressibility of the air, border effects, and the resistance caused by vertical air flow passing through perforated holes. It is found that consideration of air compressibility is necessary for high operating frequency and small ratio of the plate width to the attenuation length. The analytical results presented in this paper agree with ANSYS simulation results better than that under the air incompressibility assumption. The analytical analysis can be used to estimate the squeeze-film effects causing damping and stiffness added to the system. Since the value of Reynolds number involved in this paper is low (< 1), inertial effects are neglected.

Phylogenomic study of the subfamily Caprinae by cross-species chromosome painting with Chinese muntjac paints

Chromosomal homologies have been established between the Chinese muntjac (Muntiacus reevesi, MRE, 2n = 46) and five ovine species: wild goat (Capra aegagrus, CAE, 2n = 60), argall (Ovis ammon, OAM, 2n = 56), snow sheep (Ovis nivicola, ONI, 2n = 52), red goral (Naemorhedus cranbrooki, NCR, 2n = 56) and Sumatra serow (Capricornis sumatraensis, CSU, 2n = 48) by chromosome painting with a set of chromosome-specific probes of the Chinese muntjac. In total, twenty-two Chinese muntjac autosomal painting probes detected thirty-five homologous segments in the genome of each species. The chromosome X probe hybridized to the whole X chromosomes of all ovine species while the chromosome Y probe gave no signal. Our results demonstrate that almost all homologous segments defined by comparative painting show a high degree of conservation in G-banding patterns and that each speciation event is accompanied by specific chromosomal rearrangements. The combined analysis of our results and previous cytogenetic and molecular systematic results enables us to map the chromosomal rearrangements onto a phylogenetic tree, thus providing new insights into the karyotypic evolution of these species.

区域水土流失研究中降雨量空间插值方法选取

在区域水土流失模型研究中,空间插值可提供每个计算栅格的气象要素资料。考虑到研究区域降雨与高程相关性很弱,不宜采用梯度距离反比法(GIDS),故采用距离反比法(IDW)和普通克里格法(Kriging),对延安示范区及其周围共50个站点2000—2003年的5—10月逐月降雨量进行插值。交叉验证结果表明:对2种插值方法,二者经过对数变换后平均相对误差(MRE)为8.30%和7.67%,分别比原始数据插值后的MRE下降了23.17%和23.50%,说明插值精度得到了提升,对研究区域某一年逐月降水的插值Kriging方法比IDW方法更加精确。
