Parallel coordinates in computational engineering design

Modern Engineering Design involves the deployment of many computational tools. Re- search on challenging real-world design problems is focused on developing improvements for the engineering design process through the integration and application of advanced com- putational search/optimization and analysis tools. Successful application of these methods generates vast quantities of data on potential optimum designs. To gain maximum value from the optimization process, designers need to visualise and interpret this information leading to better understanding of the complex and multimodal relations between param- eters, objectives and decision-making of multiple and strongly conflicting criteria. Initial work by the authors has identified that the Parallel Coordinates interactive visualisation method has considerable potential in this regard. This methodology involves significant levels of user-interaction, making the engineering designer central to the process, rather than the passive recipient of a deluge of pre-formatted information. In the present work we have applied and demonstrated this methodology in two differ- ent aerodynamic turbomachinery design cases; a detailed 3D shape design for compressor blades, and a preliminary mean-line design for the whole compressor core. The first case comprises 26 design parameters for the parameterisation of the blade geometry, and we analysed the data produced from a three-objective optimization study, thus describing a design space with 29 dimensions. The latter case comprises 45 design parameters and two objective functions, hence developing a design space with 47 dimensions. In both cases the dimensionality can be managed quite easily in Parallel Coordinates space, and most importantly, we are able to identify interesting and crucial aspects of the relationships between the design parameters and optimum level of the objective functions under con- sideration. These findings guide the human designer to find answers to questions that could not even be addressed before. In this way, understanding the design leads to more intelligent decision-making and design space exploration. © 2012 AIAA.

附子及乌头属植物中二萜类生物碱的电喷雾质谱研究

电喷雾质谱是一种软电离技术，生物碱分子中均含有氮原子，具有很高的质子亲合势和气相碱度，特别适合电喷雾质谱分析。本文利用电喷雾质谱系统研究了乌头属的几种植物中二菇类生物碱的质谱行为。并且对中药复方中的生物碱成分的化学变化进行探讨，在串联质谱中，乌头碱类生物碱的裂解方式相似。双酷型、三醋型、脂类生物碱在MS2中容易丢失C8乙酸或长链脂肪酸形成特征子离子峰，在进一步CID谱中，在C15位失去CO为其特征。但是单酷型生物碱在串联质谱中碎裂方式与上述几种生物碱有很大差别，例如，在MSZ中主要失去甲醇，还会失去C3位经基，但是不会失去CS轻基。利用这些规律分析了附子及草乌中的生物碱，发现了多种具有特殊取代基的新化合物。以电喷雾质谱为检测手段分析了附子在炮制过程中的成分变化；并且发现了分离提取脂类生物碱的方法。高乌头中的生物碱以C18型为主，同时也包含少量C19乌头碱骨架的生物碱。这两种类型的生物碱在串联质谱中的碎裂规律相似，都容易失去取代基，而生物碱骨架比较稳定，难以碎裂。但是不同位置的取代基失去时所形成的子离子的丰度有很大差别，经过串联质谱可以获取重要的结构信息。并且通过串联质谱确定了刺乌头碱环糊精的包合位点，更正了文献中的错误。关白附的CZ。型海替生型生物碱在串联质谱中的行为与上述生物碱相似，容易失去取代基，但是在失去取代基的同时，常常伴随骨架中C-C键的断裂。由于这些生物碱的结构存在较强的规律，所以很容易表征其中的结构相似的新生物碱。另一方面，我们发现导致白术与附子配伍将导致共煎液中有毒生物碱成分增加，从而解释了八味地黄丸与人参汤导致中毒的原因。并且通过对八味地黄汤的配伍研究，发现起解毒作用的药材为山茱英，解毒机理为抑制了有毒生物碱的溶出。方中的山药能够抑制双酷型生物碱的水解。

A Novel Optical Gate by Integration of a Photodiode and an Electroabsorption Modulator

A compact and stable three-port optical gate has been successfully fabricated by monolithically integrating asimple photodiode and an electroabsorption modulator. The gate shows an excellent DC logic "and" function with differ-ent load resistors. Its dynamical characteristics without packaging have also been measured. We observed a dynamic extinc-tion ratio of over 7dB with a 950Ω load resistor and a 7mW control light power at 622Mbit/s.

天然产物Standishinal 的首次全合成研究

具有1，1，4α-三甲基氢化芴骨架结构的天然三环二萜化合物自然界中不常见。在该类化合物中，Standishinal 具有良好的芳香化酶抑制活性和细胞毒活性。迄今未发现有Standishinal 的全合成报道，因此，我们对Standishinal 的全合成进行了探索，在该过程中得到以下实验结果： 1. 发现MSA/P2O5、MSA 在无溶剂条件下，25 °C 时烷氧基苯即可实现向苯酚的转化，但在CH3NO2 中，温度升高至80 °C 并未发生反应。 2. 烷氧基苯或对溴苯酚与α-环香叶酸在不同温度下以MSA/P2O5、MSA、PPA为催化剂以CH3NO2 为溶剂或以BF3·Et2O为催化剂时均不发生Friedel-Crafts酰化反应。 3. 对溴苯酚与香叶酸在p-TsOH 催化作用下发生了香叶酸向α-环香叶酸环化、α-环香叶酸环与对溴苯酚的酯化，得到了唯一产物α-环香叶酸对溴苯酯，产率68%。 Standishinal is one of tricyclic-diterpenes possessing the uncommon 1, 1,4a-trimethylhydrofluorene skeleton. Standishinal possesses cytotoxic and aromataseinhibitory activities. Till now, no synthesis of standishinal has been reported. Inattempt to synthesize standishinal, the following phenomenon were observed: 1. Alkyloxybenzenes could be transformed into corresponding phenol at 25 °C inthe presence of MSA/P2O5 or MSA under solvent free condition. ButAlkyloxybenzenes are stable in presence of MSA/P2O5 or MSA in CH3NO2 even at 80 °C. 2. Friedel-Crafts acylation of alkyloxybenzenes and p-bromophenol withα-cyclogeranic acid could not be realized under catalysis of MSA/P2O5, MSA or PPAin CH3NO2, or under catalysis of BF3·Et2O without CH3NO2. 3. The reaction of 4-bromaophenol and geranic acid in the presecnce of p-TsOHafforded 4-bromophenol α-cyclogeranoate in which cyclization of geranic acid toα-cyclogeranic acid was followed by esterification of α-cyclogeranic acid with p-bromophenol.

RNAi沉默烟草GA 20-氧化酶基因研究

赤霉素是一种高效能的广谱植物生长调节剂，为五大植物激素之一，具有重要的生物学功能。目前利用赤霉素突变体研究生物合成途径和信号转导已经成为热点。 GA 20-氧化酶是GA生物合成中的一类关键酶，它位于GA合成途径的中心位置。本研究根据烟草（Nicotiana tabacum）GA 20-氧化酶基因序列，设计2对分别含有特定酶切位点的特异引物，以烟草基因组DNA为模板，扩增目的基因(约250 bp)片段。将正、反向目的片段分别插入中间载体的内含子两侧，再经BamH I和Sac I双酶切回收约700 bp的目的片段，插入到双元载体质粒p2355中，成功构建了含GA 20-氧化酶基因片段反向重复序列的植物表达载体p23700。分别将p2355质粒和p23700质粒导入根癌农杆菌（Agrobacterium tumefaciens）EHA105中并转化烟草叶片细胞，经卡那霉素选择培养，PCR及GUS组织染色鉴定，获得转基因烟草植株。以EHA105-p2355转化的烟草，获得41株转基因植株，均没有矮化表型；而以EHA105-p23700转化的烟草，获得转基因植株14株，其中具有矮化表型的烟草10株，表明反向重复序列转录产物能形成发夹RNA(hpRNA)，产生小分子干扰RNA（small interferring RNA，简称siRNA），干扰目的基因的表达。 赤霉素含量测定表明矮化植株中赤霉素合成途径的最终产物GA3总含量明显低于野生型烟草植株。荧光定量PCR结果表明，矮化转基因烟草的GA 20-氧化酶基因表达量受到明显抑制，表达量明显低于野生型对照。同时对上游内根-贝壳杉合成酶（Ent-kaurene synthase，KS）基因，下游的GA-3β羟化酶基因进行了RT-PCR分析，结果显示上游基因的表达没有规律性变化，而下游基因表达量亦降低。上述结果表明，GA 20-氧化酶基因的表达被有效地干扰了，表达受到抑制，从而影响植株体内GA3的合成，影响植株的生长发育，导致植株矮化。并推测，GA 20-氧化酶基因受到抑制，可能影响下游基因的表达。并且通过干旱胁迫测试，发现矮化植株相对于野生型植株及不含干扰片段的转基因植株，对干旱的耐受力有了很大的提高，具有更强的耐受力。 研究结果为进一步进行相关研究奠定基础。 Gibberellin(GA) is an efficient plant growth regulator. As one of five major plant hormones, it plays an important biological function. Using GA mutant for investigating biosynthetic pathways and signal transduction has become high lights. GA 20-oxidase is a crucial enzyme involved in gibberellin biosynthesis. According to tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) GA 20-oxidase enzyme gene sequence and based on binary vector p2355, we constructed a plant expression vector p23700, which habors an inverted repeat DNA fragment of GA 20-oxidase gene drivered by Cauliflower mosaic virus promtor (CaMV 35Sp). Binary plasmid p2355 had no inverted repeat DNA fragment of GA 20-oxidase gene. The vector p2355 and p23700 were introduced into Agrobacterium tumefaciens EHA105 and tobacco leaf transformation was conducted. After selected by kanamycin and characterized by PCR and GUS hischemical reaction, transsgenic plants were obtained. Fourtheen transgenic plants, which were transformed by EHA105-p23700, were obtained. Among them, 10 were dwarf mutants. However, 41 transgenic plants with the same normal phenotype as wild type,which were transformed by EHA105-p2355, were obtained. Analysis of Gibberellin contents showed that it was lower in dwarf mutants than in normal phenotype plants. Moreover, comparing to normal phenotype plants including wild type and transgenic plants with no interference fragment, the drought tolerance of dwarf plants have greatly increased. And their proline content increased obviously after drought test. Fluorescence quantitative real time PCR (RT-PCR) showed that GA 20-oxidase gene expression was significantly inhibited in dwarf transgenic tobacco. Meanwhile, the expression of the upstream gene ent-kaurene synthase (KS) gene and downstream gene GA-3β hydroxylase gene was also detected by RT-PCR. The results presented that KS gene expression had no regular change while GA-3β hydroxylase gene expression reduced. It implied that inhibiting GA 20-oxidase gene probably reduce the expression of downstream genes. The results showed that the transcriptional products of the foreign inverted repeat fragment can form hairpin RNA (hpRNA) to induce RNAi. It presented that GA 20-oxidase gene expression was effectively interfered, resulting in reducing GA3 synthesis and inhibiting plant growth and development, then dwarf plants were produced. However, the dwarf plants had higher tolerance of drought.

旱塬冬小麦氮磷肥效及其利用率的变异性研究

多年试验研究结果表明,氮(M)磷(P)肥对旱源冬小麦有显著增产效果,但其随小麦品种、年度波动性很大。N、P肥利用率年际间变化很大,且随其用量的增加而降低。1984～1995年(供试品种“长武-131”)N肥利用率变幅为6.4％～58.6％,变异系数为48.7％;P肥利用率变幅为3.7％～19.8％,变异系数为39.5％。1996～1998年(供试品种“长武-134”)肥料用量由45kg/hm~2增至180kg/hm~2,N肥利用率由42.9％降至25.4％(平均36.3％),P肥利用率由10.8％降至3.2％(平均7.2％)。肥料利用率与施肥利润高低并不同步,以肥料利用率作旱塬地区肥料生产效益的度量存在很大局限性,通过分析N与P的连应效应表明,N、P配施是提高其相互利用率的有效途径。

A study of Aconitum alkaloids from aconite roots in Aconitum carmichaeli Debx using matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization mass spectrometry

In the present paper a study of C-19-diterpene type of aconitum alkaloids, extracted from aconite roots in Aconitum carmichaeli Debx has been made using matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time of Eight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOFMS), The results demonstrated that the aconitum alkaloids from aconite roots can be determined simultaneously by this method, which was found to be superior to other analytical methods with regard to speed and sensitivity. Fourteen known aconitum alkaloids, including aconitines, benzoylaconitines and lipoaconitines, were assigned in the methanol extract and three compounds not reported before have been targeted separation. The evaluation of the efficiency of different extractions has been studied. These results suggested that the differences of the polarity and basicity of aconitine, and benzoylaconitines and lipoaconitines result from the C-8 constituent groups that are easily lost under MALDI, (C) 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
