Finite element optimization of sample geometry for measuring the torsional shear strength of glass/metal joints

Assessment of mechanical properties of glass/metal joints is a challenging process, especially when the application relevant conditions of the joints have to be considered in the test design. In this study, a finite element method (FEM) is implemented to analyze a torsional shear strength test designed for glass-ceramic/steel joints aiming towards solid oxide fuel/electrolysis cells application. Deviations from axial symmetry of the square flanges (ends) of respective hourglass-shaped specimens and also supporting and loading sockets of the test set-up are included in the model to simulate conditions close to reality. Undesirable tensile stress and also shear stress concentration appear at the outer edge of glass-ceramic layers, which are less for the hollow-full specimen. The simulation results show that for a specimen with either 9 mm thick square- or 6 mm thick triangular-flanges, locally enhanced tensile stresses almost disappear, resulting in a symmetric shear stress distribution. The difference between the analytically derived nominal shear strength and the real critical shear stress derived via simulation reduces with decreasing the fracture torque.     

长走向平行钒铁矿体协同开采方案研究

七角井矿区的钒、铁双层矿体走向长度超4 km且呈近似平行产出，下盘铁矿开采时损失贫化率高且上盘钒矿资源保护难度大。根据钒铁矿体走向长、近平行产出、厚度负相关、空区隐患大的开采技术条件 特征，采用平面分区、开采时序规划、采矿方法优化、区域稳定性控制等技术来实现钒铁矿协同开采。根据铁矿“中间厚、两端薄”、钒矿“中间薄、两端厚”的形态特征，将长走向的钒铁矿体分为东区、中区及西 区。工程空间上，双层矿体共用一套开拓、采准、运输等开采系统；开采时序上，在提高铁矿生产能力的同时保证了钒矿开采的时间灵活性；采矿方法上，东区及西区铁矿采用阶段矿房嗣后膏体微胶结充填法，中区 铁矿采用阶段矿房法转崩落法；此外，通过中区崩落顶板及上盘围岩，东、西区膏体充填方式保证了矿区开采时及开采后的区域稳定性。研究表明：所提出的协同开采方案使矿山铁矿设计开采储量增加了1 064.7万t ，膏体充填每年消耗干抛层、尾矿等矿山固废86万t以上，矿山安全及经济效益明显。     

A note on using the Hodrick–Prescott filter in electricity markets

Recently, Nowotarski et al. (2013) have found that wavelet-based models for the long-term seasonal component (LTSC) are not only better in extracting the LTSC from a series of spot electricity prices but also significantly more accurate in terms of forecasting these prices up to a year ahead than the commonly used monthly dummies and sine-based models. However, a clear disadvantage of the wavelet-based approach is the increased complexity of the technique, as compared to the other two classes of LTSC models, and the resulting need for dedicated numerical software, which may not be readily available to practitioners in their work environments. To facilitate this problem, we propose here a much simpler, yet equally powerful method for identifying the LTSC in electricity spot price series. It makes use of the Hodrick–Prescott (HP) filter, a widely-recognized tool in macroeconomics.     

Three Ln(III)-2,3,5-trichlorobenzoate coordination polymers (Ln = Tb,Ho and Er): Syntheses,structures and magnetic properties

Three novel lanthanide polymers, [Ln(III)(L)₃EtOH]_n (Ln = Tb(1), Ho(2), Er(3), HL = 2,3,5-trichlorobenzoic acid), have been solvothermal synthesized and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, infrared spectroscopy and element analyses. The three polymers crystallize in triclinic space group P-1. The Ln(III) ions are in turn bridged by double and quadruple carboxylate of L⁻ ligands to form one-dimensional (1D) chains. Magnetic studies reveal that polymer 1 demonstrates dominant ferromagnetic behavior, polymer 2 shows antiferromagnetic behavior, and polymer 3 present spin-canting behavior.     

Synthesis and properties of cinnamic acid series organic UV ray absorbents–interleaved layered double hydroxides

Organic ultraviolet (UV) ray absorbents, cinnamic acid (CA) and p-methoxycinnamic acid (PMOCA) were intercalated into Zn₂Al layered double hydroxides (Zn₂Al-LDHs) by co-precipitation reaction. The organic–inorganic nanocomposites, Zn₂Al-LDH/CA and Zn₂Al-LDH/PMOCA were obtained. The samples showed excellent UV ray absorption ability and their catalytic activity for the air oxidation of castor oil greatly decreased when the organic UV ray absorbents were intercalated in the layers of the Zn₂Al-LDHs. The studies suggested that Zn₂Al-LDH/organic UV absorbent nanocomposites might be used as safe sunscreen materials.

基于生态位理论的黄河流域用水结构分析

为分析和探究黄河流域用水结构的变化特征,科学支撑流域水资源合理配置与调度,保障流域可持续发展,以黄河流域为研究对象,基于生态位理论构建了用水结构生态位及其熵值模型,分析了流域及流域内主要省区用水结构演变趋势和特征,并与发达国家用水特征作比较。在此基础上提出了相关建议。结果表明:黄河流域的农业用水生态位(0.7～0.78)最大但呈现波动减少趋势,工业用水生态位(0.12～0.15)次之且变化趋势为波动且有所下降,生活用水生态位(0.06～0.08)与城镇公共及生态用水生态位(0.03～0.09)相对较少但皆有不同程度的增长趋势。各省区的生态位熵值差异较大,表明流域及各省区间用水结构差异较大。统计年间宁夏、内蒙古及山东的农业用水占有率高于全流域,陕西、山西、河南及甘肃的工业用水占有率高于全流域,各省区城镇公共及生态用水的占有率变化剧烈,陕西、山西及河南的生活用水占有率高于全流域。相较于黄河流域,美国的工业用水(0.42～0.52)在用水结构中的优势更加突出,农业用水(0.31～0.44)相对处于劣势地位;两个区域生活用水在用水结构中的地位相对其他的用水类型更为接近。
