Inverse identification of constitutive parameters from heat source fields: A local approach applied to hyperelasticity

In this paper, a new inverse identification method of constitutive parameters is developed from full kinematic and thermal field measurements. It consists in reconstructing the heat source field from two different approaches by using the heat diffusion equation. The first one requires the temperature field measurement and the value of the thermophysical parameters. The second one is based on the kinematic field measurement and the choice of a thermo-hyperelastic model that contains the parameters to be identified. The identification is carried out at the local scale, ie, at any point of the heat source field, without using the boundary conditions. In the present work, the method is applied to the challenging case of hyperelasticity from a heterogeneous test. Due to large deformations undergone by the rubber specimen tested, a motion compensation technique is developed to plot the kinematic and the thermal fields at the same points before reconstructing the heterogeneous heat source field. In the present case, the constitutive parameter of the Neo-Hookean model has been identified, and its distribution has been characterized with respect to the strain state at the surface of a cross-shaped specimen.     

核桃雄花中总多酚提取工艺的研究

采用单因素和正交试验研究核桃雄花中多酚类物质的最佳提取工艺条件。通过对4种不同溶剂(无水乙醇、甲醇、丙酮和乙酸乙酯)在相同试验条件下的浸提效果比较发现,甲醇是核桃雄花中总酚类物质的最佳提取试剂。然后分别采用常规水浴浸提法和超声波辅助浸提法对甲醇体分数、浸提温度、浸提时间和料液比等因素进行研究,在确定最佳单因素水平的基础上,再利用正交试验优化以甲醇为浸提剂的提取工艺条件,试验得出超声波辅助浸提法具有用时短、总多酚提取量高的优点,其最佳工艺条件为:料液比1∶30(g/m L)、甲醇溶液体积分数30%、温度70℃、浸提时间10 min。在此条件下,核桃雄花中的总多酚含量可达6.56%,明显高于其他条件下的。     

Removal of imidacloprid and acetamiprid from tea infusions by microfiltration membrane

Removal of imidacloprid and acetamiprid in tea infusions by microfiltration membrane using dead‐end model was investigated in the present study. The results showed that microfiltration significantly promoted the removal of both pesticides (P < 0.05) in tea infusions. Furthermore, the extent of removal was strongly influenced by the pore size of membrane, operational pressure and the concentrations of tea infusions. The initial concentration of imidacloprid and acetamiprid showed no significant effect on their removal rates. The maximum removal rates were 79.7% for imidacloprid and 81.9% acetamiprid. The changes in major chemical components of tea infusions after microfiltration were evaluated. The results indicated that microfiltration caused no considerable changes in total polyphenols and total free amino acids, and small but statistically significant losses (6.3–18.0%) of eight catechins and three methylxanthines when filtration volume reached to 200 mL. The present study validated the application of microfiltration as a potentially feasible and promising method for the removal of imidacloprid and acetamiprid residues from tea infusions.
