Articulating the Broken City and Society

Jorge Mario Jáuregui of Metrópolis Projetos Urbanos (MPU) has been responsible for more than 20 projects for the Favela-Barrio (slum-to-neighbourhood) Programme implemented by the Rio de Janeiro city government, and two large-scale urban redevelopment projects for President Lula's PAC (Growth Acceleration Programme). Here Jáuregui describes the strategies behind his work and specifically the transformation of public space that was undertaken at the Complexo de Manguinhos in northern Rio as part of the PAC scheme.

针对管线钢L245钢在太钢炼钢二厂北区3号宽板坯铸机生产时铸坯角部经常出现横裂纹,造成其热轧后卷板边部存在裂纹缺陷,利用Gleeble-3800型热/力学模拟试验机对管线钢L245钢进行了高温面塑率及高温强度的测试,并用扫描电镜对测试试样断口形貌进行观察.从试验结果分析认为:管线钢1245钢的化学成分设计决定其对裂纹的敏感性,由于第Ⅲ区脆性温度区间的高温面塑率低导致其在连铸过程铸坯冷却或受力不均衡情况下铸坯角部裂纹的发生.为要避免铸坯角部横裂纹的产生,在连铸坯矫直时,其角部温度应避开第Ⅲ区脆性温度区间.

1.8 GHz TDD-LTE行业专网的运行环境影响分析

根据我国现行的频谱规划,在行业专网中可用于无线宽带专网建设的唯一授权可以使用的连续频段为1 785～1 805 MHz。由于多数行业专网承载业务和安全生产直接相关,有必要对该频段运行的无线运行环境进行分析。根据3GPP规划,该频段与Band3 FDD-LTE使用频段相邻,需要分析Band3频段对1.8 GHz TDD-LTE专网是否形成干扰。基于目前国家已经颁布的相关频率政策和型号核准要求对基站间干扰情况进行分析,并对相关型号核准文件提出建议。     

Polymer/carbon based composites as electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding materials

The extensive development of electronic systems and telecommunications has lead to major concerns regarding electromagnetic pollution. Motivated by environmental questions and by a wide variety of applications, the quest for materials with high efficiency to mitigate electromagnetic interferences (EMI) pollution has become a mainstream field of research. This paper reviews the state-of-the-art research in the design and characterization of polymer/carbon based composites as EMI shielding materials. After a brief introduction, in Section 1, the electromagnetic theory will be briefly discussed in Section 2 setting the foundations of the strategies to be employed to design efficient EMI shielding materials. These materials will be classified in the next section by the type of carbon fillers, involving carbon black, carbon fiber, carbon nanotubes and graphene. The importance of the dispersion method into the polymer matrix (melt-blending, solution processing, etc.) on the final material properties will be discussed. The combination of carbon fillers with other constituents such as metallic nanoparticles or conductive polymers will be the topic of Section 4. The final section will address advanced complex architectures that are currently studied to improve the performances of EMI materials and, in some cases, to impart additional properties such as thermal management and mechanical resistance. In all these studies, we will discuss the efficiency of the composites/devices to absorb and/or reflect the EMI radiation.     

Critical and Subcritical Mass Calculations of Curium-243 to -247 Based on JENDL-3.2 for Revision of ANSI/ANS-8.15

Critical and subcritical masses were calculated for a sphere of five curium isotopes from ²⁴³Cm to ²⁴⁷Cm in metal and in metal-water mixtures considering three reflector conditions: bare, with a water reflector or a stainless steel reflector. The calculation were made mainly with a combination of a continuous energy Monte Carlo neutron transport calculation code, MCNP, and the Japanese Evaluated Nuclear Data Library, JENDL-3.2. Other evaluated nuclear data files, ENDF/B-VI and JEF-2.2, were also applied to find differences in calculation results of the neutron multiplication factor originated from different nuclear data files. A large dependence on the evaluated nuclear data files was found in the calculation results: more than 10%Δk/k relative differences in the neutron multiplication factor for a homogeneous mixture of ²⁴³Cm metal and water when JENDL-3.2 was replaced with ENDF/B-VI and JEF-2.2, respectively; and a 44% reduction in the critical mass by changing from JENDL-3.2 to ENDF/B-VI for ²⁴⁶Cm metal. The present study supplied basic information to the ANSI/ANS-8.15 Working Group for revision of the standard for nuclear criticality control of special actinide elements. The new or revised values of the subcritical mass limits for curium isotopes accepted by the ANSI/ANS-8.15 Working Group were finally summarized.
