盐对菠菜叶绿体PSI光合电子传递及低温荧光发射光谱的影响

本文报告了以下几点研究所结果 1、NaCl， K2SO4等几种盐对菠菜叶绿体和PSI颗粒的甲基紫精光还原速率都有明显的促进作用。 2、以上几种盐都能改变叶绿体和PSI颗粒的低温荧光发射光谱中不同的荧光发射峰之间的比值。但是PSI颗粒低温荧光光谱的变化是和叶绿体低温荧光光谱的变化是不同的。 3、胰蛋白酶予处理并不能消除盐对叶绿体甲基紫精光还原反应的促进作用，相反地，却能提高盐的促进作用的灵敏度。 4、胰蛋白酶予处理也不能改变盐对叶绿体和PSI颗粒的低温荧光光谱的影响。 本文根据以上实验结果并结合前人的工作，对以上实验结果之间的内在联系进行了讨论，并试图说明盐在以上实验过程中的作用。

高等植物PSI ,PSII反应中心及天线系统色素蛋白复合体结构与功能的研究

一、实验证明了Cd H、Mg“在小麦类囊体膜上色素蛋白复合体的解聚和再聚合过程中，具有不同的作用。因此，二阶阳离子对激发能在光系统间的分配调节作用，可能不能仅仅用“静电现象”(Barber(1980))去解释。分析表明，在Ca2+作用下与PSII内周天线CP-47，GP-43多肽结合的L H C II和LHClb是来自间质膜区的PS I系统的。从PSI迁移到P S II的捕光色素蛋白，增加了PSII的捕光截面，从而促进了激发能有利于PsII分配。 二、Ca2*、Mg2+对小麦和菠菜类囊体膜光谱性质的影响有所差异。Ca2+对小麦类囊体膜光谱性质的影响还可以随着介质中Ca2+的消除而消除。同小麦类囊体膜相比，菠菜PSII以及LHCII更为集中在基粒区域，这可能是菠菜类囊体膜强Fv以及高F888／F735，F89H／F735比值的原因。因此，Ca2+，HgH对激发能在光系统间分配的调节作用是依赖于光系统间激发能及天线色素蛋白的分配状况的。 三、对菠菜叶中分离的PSII-RC: D1-D2-cyt b55g复合物进行的低温荧光发射光谱的研究表明，这一复合物可能具有F681和F684两种波长的低温荧光发射，但它们通常并不是同时存在，而是取决于Ca-670与Ca-680 Chla分子的相对含量的。PSII-RC内周无线GP-47，GP-43多肽的存在是D1-D2-cyt b559复合物低温荧光发射红移的原因;而D1一D2cyt b559复合物的不稳定性则与其低温荧光发射的蓝移现象有关。 从蕹菜叶中分离的Dl—D2-cyt b559复合物的F 381低温荧光发射也是由其相对含量较高的C．i-6 7 0 Chla分子的存在决定的。对蕹菜D 1一D 2-cyt b559复合物中的分析还表明，F 681的低温荧光发射直接来源于Di／D2复合物，而415nm处相对较强的吸收，则可能主要是与Pheo的存在有关的。 四、多肽分析与光谱分析的对照表明，CP-26内周天线多肽可能是PSII中F695低温荧光发射的真正来源。 五、实验分析了蔗糖密度离心分离的LHClI和PSI颗粒。结果排除了CP-27多肽（以及CP，一2 5，GP-47，CP -4 3多肽）具有F695低温荧光发射的可能，因此支持了CP-26多肽是PSII中F695低荧光发射来源的看法。对PsI颗粒的分析表明，P700的存在可能是与PSI-RC中较大的Sub-I亚基相联系的。 六、根据以上的研究结果，提出了PSI，PSII在类囊体膜上的结构模式，并对其内容进行了分析和讨论。

Mechanisms of erosion of unfilled elastomers by solid particle impact

The mechanisms of material removal were studied during the erosion of two unfilled elastomers (natural rubber and epoxidised natural rubber). The effects of impact velocity and of lubrication by silicone oil were investigated. The development of surface features due to single impacts and during the early stages of erosion was followed by scanning electron microscopy. The basic material removal mechanism at impact angles of both 30° and 90° involves the formation and growth of fine fatigue cracks under the tensile surface stresses caused by impact. No damage was observed after single impacts; it was found that many successive impacts are necessary for material removal. It was found that the erosion rate has a very strong dependance on impact velocity above about 50 ms-1.

Solid particle erosion of boronized steels

Boronizing is a thermochemical diffusion-based process for producing iron boride layers in the surface of steel components. The boride layer is wear resistant and is very hard. Large residual stresses are found to exist in the surface layers, which are a function of substrate steel composition and heat treatment. By slow cooling from the boronizing temperature (900°C), a large compressive stress is developed in the boride layer. Hardening the steel by rapid cooling, either directly from the boronizing treatment or after subsequent austenitizing, develops tension in the coating which causes it to fracture. Tempering of the martensite produces compression in the coating, closing but not welding the cracks. The results of solid particle erosion experiments using silicon carbide, quartz, and glass bead erodents on boronized steels are presented.

Influence of particle properties on the erosive wear of sintered boron carbide

Sintered boron carbide is very hard, and can be an attractive material for wear-resistant components in critical applications. Previous studies of the erosion of less hard ceramics have shown that their wear resistance depends on the nature of the abrasive particles. Erosion tests were performed on a sintered boron carbide ceramic with silica, alumina and silicon carbide erodents. The different erodents caused different mechanisms of erosion, either by lateral cracking or small-scale chipping; the relative values of the hardness of the erodent and the target governed the operative mechanism. The small-scale chipping mechanism led to erosion rates typically an order of magnitude lower than the lateral fracture mechanism. The velocity exponents for erosion in the systems tested were similar to those seen in other work, except that measured with the 125 to 150 μm silica erodent. With this erodent the exponent was initially high, then decreased sharply with increasing velocity and became negative. It was proposed that this was due to deformation and fragmentation of the erodent particles. In the erosion testing of ceramics, the operative erosion mechanism is important. Care must be taken to ensure that the same mechanism is observed in laboratory testing as that which would be seen under service conditions, where the most common erodent is silica.

Failure mechanisms and toughness of Al2O3 ductile-particle toughened ceramics and SiC fibre-ceramic composites

The development of high performance ceramics and ceramic composites often relies on assumptions about their behaviour during loading and at failure. A crucial influence on the mechanical properties of these materials is the degree of sub-critical cracking, which post mortem investigations cannot adequately reveal. Hence a clear picture of the dynamic micromechanisms of cracking is required if applications of fracture and damage mechanics to theoretical models is to be meaningful.

Wear of hardfacing white cast irons by solid particle erosion

The response of three commercial weld-hardfacing alloys to erosive wear has been studied. These were high chromium white cast irons, deposited by an open-arc welding process, widely used in the mineral processing and steelmaking industries for wear protection. Erosion tests were carried out with quartz sand, silicon carbide grit and blast furnace sinter of two different sizes, at a velocity of 40 m s-1 and at impact angles in the range 20° to 90°. A monolithic white cast iron and mild steel were also tested for comparison. Little differences were found in the wear rates when silica sand or silicon carbide grit was used as the erodent. Significant differences were found, however, in the rankings of the materials. Susceptibility to fracture of the carbide particles in the white cast irons played an important role in the behaviour of the white cast irons. Sinter particles were unable to cause gross fracture of the carbides and so those materials with a high volume fraction of carbides showed the greatest resistance to erosive wear. Silica and silicon carbide were capable of causing fracture of the primary carbides. Concentration of plastic strain in the matrix then led to a high wear rate for the matrix. At normal impact with silica or silicon carbide erodents mild steel showed a greater resistance to erosive wear than these alloys. © 1995.

Video tracking using dual-treewavelet polar matching and particle filtering

In this paper, we describe a video tracking application using the dual-tree polar matching algorithm. The models are specified in a probabilistic setting, and a particle ilter is used to perform the sequential inference. Computer simulations demonstrate the ability of the algorithm to track a simulated video moving target in an urban environment with complete and partial occlusions. © The Institution of Engineering and Technology.

Multiple object tracking using evolutionary MCMC-based particle algorithms

Algorithms are presented for detection and tracking of multiple clusters of co-ordinated targets. Based on a Markov chain Monte Carlo sampling mechanization, the new algorithms maintain a discrete approximation of the filtering density of the clusters' state. The filters' tracking efficiency is enhanced by incorporating various sampling improvement strategies into the basic Metropolis-Hastings scheme. Thus, an evolutionary stage consisting of two primary steps is introduced: 1) producing a population of different chain realizations, and 2) exchanging genetic material between samples in this population. The performance of the resulting evolutionary filtering algorithms is demonstrated in two different settings. In the first, both group and target properties are estimated whereas in the second, which consists of a very large number of targets, only the clustering structure is maintained. © 2009 IFAC.
