不同压力下的热压加工对含Mn块体纳米晶Fe3Al组织和性能的影响

对铝热反应熔化制备的含10wt%Mn块体纳米晶Fe3Al材料在800℃和1000℃温度下,采用不同压力进行热压加工,利用XRD研究热压加工前后纳米晶粒尺寸的变化,并测试硬度变化和压缩率。结果显示,不同温度、压力下热压加工后,晶粒尺寸变化不大;热压加工后,材料的硬度有所上升,但温度和压力对硬度影响不大;热压加工中,材料表现出较好的塑性变形,并随着热压压力的增大,材料压缩率逐渐增大,但温度对材料的压缩率影响不明显。热压加工后,块体纳米晶Fe3Al材料几何尺寸得到了增大。

利用开关卡尔曼滤波器的目标跟踪技术研究

为了使机器人视觉伺服控制系统的目标跟踪精度得到进一步提高,构建一种基于开关卡尔曼滤波器的视觉伺服控制系统。研究视觉伺服的目标跟踪原理,推导相关的数学模型,并分析跟踪误差产生的原因;针对图像采集和处理引入的延时问题,通过卡尔曼滤波估计得到目标运动的速度信息,以此作为前馈量输入视觉伺服控制器,补偿由于目标运动和延时造成的跟踪误差;为了解决卡尔曼滤波器由于目标运动的突然变化而降低估计性能的问题,引入运动监视器以在目标运动突然变化时发出开关信号并重置卡尔曼滤波器;最后对该算法进行实验与仿真。结果表明:基于卡尔曼滤波器的视觉伺服控制器能把跟踪误差控制在1 mm以内,而开关卡尔曼滤波器能有效地减少因目标运动状态突然变化而产生的跟踪误差。

EMULSION COATING TO EXTEND POSTHARVEST LIFE OF MANGO (MANGIFERA INDICA CV. MANILA)

A coating emulsion was prepared using maltodextrins, carboxymethylcellulose, propileneglycol and a mixture of s orbit an fatty acid esters with an HLB of 6. The emulsion was sprayed on fully mature, unripened manila mangoes, which were the stored at 15 and 25C and 80–85% R.H. At 25C it was observed that rate CO² production increased and lost in control fruits after 12 days of storage. Coated mangoes kept their rate CO² production and suffered only 8% weight loss after 21 days of storage. After storage, the coating was washed out and fruits were allowed to ripen naturally, which occurred in 3–4 days. The results obtained from this study indicate that application of the hydrophobic coating extended the postharvest storage of mangoes for at least 20 days more than uncoated fruits.     

Determinant spreading associated with demyelination in a nonhuman primate model of multiple sclerosis

Definition of the immune process that causes demyelination in multiple sclerosis is essential to determine the feasibility of Ag-directed immunotherapy. Using the nonhuman primate, Callithrix jacchus jacchus (common marmoset), we show that immunization with myelin basic protein and proteolipid protein determinants results in clinical disease with significant demyelination. Demyelination was associated with spreading to myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) determinants that generated anti-MOG serum Abs and Ig deposition in central nervous system white matter lesions. These data associate intermolecular "determinant spreading" with clinical autoimmune disease in primates and raise important issues for the pathogenesis and treatment of multiple sclerosis.     

Hypotension following acute hypovolaemia depends on the caudal midline medulla

Acute hypovolaemia evokes abrupt, life-threatening hypotension and bradycardia. Hypotension can be evoked also by excitation of the caudal midline medulla (CMM). This study investigated the possible contribution of the CMM depressor area to hypotension evoked by acute hypovolaemia. Inactivation of the CMM, with either lignocaine or cobalt chloride did not alter resting arterial pressure. However lignocaine injections blocked the fall in arterial pressure, and cobalt chloride injections delayed the onset and significantly attenuated the size of hypovolaemic-evoked hypotension. These findings suggest that the CMM is a key region triggering hypotension after blood loss, and that the brain areas mediating cardiovascular response to challenges such as acute hypovolaemia are not the same areas that regulate resting arterial pressure.     

Dynamic course of neurological syndromes in very young children with the history of intrauterine growth retardation

90 infants with intrauterine growth retardation (IGR) and 100 normal infants (control group) were followed up from 5 days till 3 years of life. In IGR infants there was a more frequent combination of several neurologic syndromes, an early manifestation of motor disorders (from the very moment of birth), a delay of neuro-psychic development (during the first year of life), a tendency to development of moderate hydrocephalus by the age of 6 months. Autonomic-visceral disorders in them were mostly characterized by the symptoms of abaissement, but not of irritation.     

The effect of transdermal nicotine on digital perfusion in reformed habitual smokers

The effects of transdermal nicotine-assisted smoking cessation on digital perfusion and health-related quality of life were assessed in 10 chronic smokers. Components of digital blood flow were evaluated by digital temperature and laser Doppler fluxmetry before, during, and after a standardized cold challenge. Nutritional flow was measured by vital capillaroscopy; a quantitative perfusion profile was obtained by laser Doppler perfusion imaging. A battery of validated measures were used to evaluate health-related quality of life. The microvascular response of smokers was evaluated before smoking cessation and at 2 and 7 days after smoking cessation and was compared with the response of nonsmoking controls. Results demonstrated that a (1) cutaneous microvascular perfusion was lower in smokers than nonsmokers, (2) the acute administration of transdermal nicotine did not decrease cutaneous perfusion, (3) smoking cessation and transdermal nicotine normalized digital microvascular perfusion by 7 days, and (4) transdermal nicotine and smoking cessation did not negatively impact health-related quality of life.
