Synthesis of colloidal nanosilica from waste glass powder as a low cost precursor

Waste glass powder was used as a low cost precursor for production of colloidal nanosilica for the first time. The process includes production of wet silica gel and thermal peptization of the wet gel. Purification of the glass powder and wet gel production were initiated by acid washing. The obtained powder was reacted with sodium hydroxide to produce wet silica gel. Type of the applied acid was examined in one factor at a time route. Temperature of the alkaline step and concentrations of the applied acid and base were investigated using Taguchi design of experiments. After finding the best combination of the investigated factor levels in production of the wet gel, time of the stabilization in thermal peptization was studied. Characterizations of the wet gel and colloidal silica were performed by XRF, DLS, FESEM, TEM, FTIR and N₂ sorption evaluation. Accordingly pure and stable colloidal nanosilica (98.50%) with average particle size of 21.9?nm was produced from the glass powder successfully. Specific surface area of the dried porous optimum sample was 83.63?m²/g.     

Single nanowire assembled by liquid dielectrophoresis for on-chip technologies

ABSTRACT

Study on dynamic tensile properties and atomic chain fabrication of single nanowire, for understanding its dynamic tensile properties and unique physical properties of atomic chain to fabricate atom scale devices, is one of frontier research issues in nano-scale science. However, how to assemble single nanowire on a tensible micro-structure becomes one of the most difficult problems, which severely restricts the development of this research field. In this paper, after the ultrahigh tensible microelectrode chip is fabricated by micro-electromechanical systems technology, hexamethyldisilazane is utilized to improve hydrophobicity of the chip, and then a micro-droplet dielectrophoresis experimental platform and technology is developed to assemble single nanowire on the sensible microelectrode. Experimental results show that accurate and efficient assembly of single Cu nanowire is realized, which contributes greatly to the further research of dynamic tensile properties and atomic chain fabrication. And for guiding the assembly experiments, finite element technology is also utilized to analyze the local micro electro-field around the microelctrodes during dieletrophoresis experiments.     

广州市传统滨水动态人文景观的类型及空间格局

文章从风景园林学科的角度出发，对传统老广州曾经存在的地域人文景观里的典型——滨水动态人文景观进行了初步的全面整理，以日常型滨水动态人文景观和节庆型滨水动态人文景观为两种基本类型，总结梳理出超过25种滨水动态人文景观的主要类型，充分说明了广州市传统滨水动态人文景观的多样性和独特性。并以景观格局的理论视角分析了传统滨水动态人文景观在广州旧城的空间格局，分析得出其两个核心聚集区：以祭祀水神的仁威神庙为精神核心节点的呈圆形扩散的西关功能核心区和以长堤滨江段为中线的呈椭圆形扩散的珠江两岸功能核心区，并总结了促使这种人文景观发展与繁盛的历史经验，为广州地域文化景观的发扬及旧城更新工作提供借鉴。     

Patient involvement in Danish hospital design

This paper examines patient-involvement in the process used to design new hospitals. Denmark is in the midst of a phase of hospital building. This recent experience is studied by means of expert interviews with senior practitioners involved in three projects. Examined thematically, the data covers the structure of the design process, identification and ranking of stakeholders, the methods of user-involvement and approaches to accessibility. The paper adds new insight on an under-studied area, design for hospitals and makes recommendations for a change of approach to user-participation in their design. It highlights the difficulties in applying the methods of user-centred design and Design for All in large projects.

基于CFD-DEM方法的净化器流场模拟与结构优化

针对空气净化器能耗高的问题，使用离散元方法(DEM)在吸附滤网中建立随机堆积柱形活性炭模型，采用计算流体力学(CFD)方法对空气净化器内部流场进行数值模拟，在模拟与实验验证的基础上，考察了压降最小、流场最均匀的吸附滤网结构。结果表明，空气净化器压降主要发生在轴向，活性炭吸附滤网中回流、沟流现象严重，流体阻力是其他两种滤网的3倍。边数对多边形填充孔结构吸附滤网内压降与流场均匀性无影响，当孔结构改为圆形时，压降减小约52 Pa，节能18.4%(49 W)；当孔直径由8 mm增至12 mm，压降减小约48 Pa，节能19.4%(45 W)；滤网间距对空气净化器压降无影响，圆形、小孔径的吸附滤网内流场最均匀。
