Gelling behavior of MgAl2O4 slurries with a common dispersant

MgAl₂O₄ transparent ceramics were shaped by a commonly used polyacrylic acid (PAA), which acted as both dispersant and gelling agent. The spinel slurries were prepared by ball-milling MgAl₂O₄ powder, PAA, and water in an attrition mill. The gelling of slurries happened at room temperature in air atmosphere without any other organic additive. The gelling mechanism was the formation of chelates between Mg²⁺ and carboxyl groups (-COO⁻) of PAA. The frequency-based testing method was applied to investigate the gelling process of the as-prepared slurry. In addition, a novel in situ characterization method based on a modified indentation testing was invented to better understand the strengthening of the wet green body with time and to guide when demolding could be carried out. After sintering, transparent MgAl₂O₄ ceramics with high in-line transmittance were resulted.     

Memory-based dynamic event-triggered control for networked interval type-2 fuzzy systems subject to DoS attacks

In this article, the memory-based dynamic event-triggered controller design issue is investigated for networked interval type-2 (IT2) fuzzy systems under non-periodic denial-of-service (DoS) attacks. For saving limited network bandwidth, a novel memory-based dynamic event-triggered mechanism (DETM) is proposed to schedule data communication. Unlike existing event-triggered generators, the developed memory-based DETM can utilize a series of newly released signals and further save network resources by introducing interval dynamic variables. Moreover, to improve design flexibility, an IT2 fuzzy controller with freely selectable fuzzy rule number and premise membership functions (MFs) is synthesized. Then, a new switched time-delay system with imperfectly matched MFs is established under the consideration of memory-based DETM and DoS attacks simultaneously. Besides, based on the property of MFs, the boundary information of membership grades and slack matrices are introduced in the stability analysis. Furthermore, by using a piecewise Lyapunov–Krasovskii method, membership-functions-dependent criteria are deduced to ensure the asymptotic stability of built fuzzy switched systems. Finally, the effectiveness of proposed control strategies is demonstrated by simulation examples.

GM-CSF及CBS在肝损伤中的研究进展

肝损伤(liver injury)是指基因遗传或外部原因诱发的肝脏功能异常性疾病.临床表现为食欲不振、乏力、恶心、黄疸、疲乏等,严重者将出现肝功能衰竭,致死风险极高.在交通肇事、暴力犯罪及意外事件中,肝由于体积大、位置固定、质地脆弱、血运丰富等原因,往往是最容易发生损伤的器官之一,肝损伤后的死亡率可高达10.5％～25％[1].随着时间的变化,肝损伤的程度、病理改变、GM-CSF等相关细胞因子及CBS等相关酶的表达水平也会进一步变化.肝损伤后,由于肝内部环境稳态的破坏,器官的状态、结构、各种蛋白的转录水平、蛋白及细胞因子的表达变化水平也会发生一定程度的改变.因此定性定量地分析这些变化,找到时间相关性强的特异性指标,对于指导法医学的实践具有重要的作用.因此在法医学鉴定中,通过肝脏损伤及病变程度的改变,明确肝损伤病变与死亡时间的关系有利于判断事件或案件性质,并有助于进一步对责任方的认定.
