Fast detecting target groups in sar images

A successful algorithm for detecting target groups is presented. Firstly, A global Constant False Alarm Rate （CFAR） detector is utilized to locate the potential target regions, and then the features are computed for target discrimination based on voting mechanism. Finally, Target groups are extracted. The results of experiments show the validity of this algorithm.

One‐Pot Generation and Conversion of Trichloroacetimidates for the Racemization‐Free Allylation and Benzylation of α‐Hydroxyesters and the Enantiopure Synthesis of a Chiral Diglycole

O‐Allylations and O‐benzylations of a‐hydroxy esters ( 3a ‐ 3c ) are performed without racemization. The reagents applied, O‐allyl‐ and O‐benzyltrichloroacetimidate ( 5a , 5b ) are prepared and converted in a one‐pot‐procedure. After protection by benzylation (S)‐(‐)‐ethyl lactate ( 3a ) is converted by a sequence of carbonyl reduction, alcohol activation, ether formation, and deprotection to the optically active diglycole derivative 1a     

Compared properties of aromatic polyisophthalamides containing 5‐(4‐acetoxy‐benzamido) pendent groups

A series of aromatic polyamides containing 5‐(4‐acetoxy‐benzamido) pendent groups have been synthesized and their properties have been characterized and compared with those of related polyamides. The polyamides have weight‐ and number‐average molecular weights in the range of 36,680–65,700 and 12,685–35,490, respectively, and polydispersities in the range of 1.82–3.66. These polymers show good thermal stability comparable to traditional aromatic polyisophthalamides, with initial decomposition temperature between 270–320°C and glass transition temperature in the range of 230–270°C. Compared with related polyisophthalamides without any pendent groups, the present polymers show better solubility in certain solvents such as N‐methylpyrrolidinone and dimethylacetamide and can be cast from solutions into thin transparent flexible films having dielectric constants in the range of 3.42–4.27. The polymer films display remarkable hydrophilicity, which makes them potential candidates for use as advanced materials in humidity sensors. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Characterization of Different Starches Oxidized by Hypochlorite

The effects of starch origin (potato, corn, and rice starches) and hypochlorite level (NaOCl, 0.8% and 2% w/w) on the structures and physicochemical properties of oxidized starches were investigated. Carboxyl and carbonyl group contents of oxidized starches increased with increasing NaOCl level, with potato starch having the highest and corn starch having the lowest carboxyl groups content at both NaOCl levels. Oxidation generally reduced the pasting temperature and viscosity of native starches as demonstrated by using a Rapid Visco Analyser. The peak viscosities of oxidized rice and corn starches were higher than those of their native counterparts at 0.8% NaOCl. The morphology of starches was not altered and X‐ray diffraction patterns of all the starches remained unchanged after oxidation. Oxidized starch batters exhibited greater adhesions than did native starch batters, with rice starch batter exhibiting the greatest adhesion. Carbohydrate profiles by high‐performance size‐exclusion chromatography indicated that both amylopectin and amylose were degraded during oxidation. The level of oxidation was largely dependent on the degree of crystallinity of starch and the degree of polymerization of amylose, whereas the adhesion property of oxidized starch was mainly attributed to its granular size and shape.     

The influence of nitrogen fertilisation on quantities and proportions of different protein types in wheat flour

The flours of 13 wheat varieties grown at different levels of nitrogen fertilisation were characterised by the quantitative determination of flour protein groups and gluten protein types using a combined extraction/HPLC procedure. The results demonstrate that the quantities of albumins and globulins were scarcely influenced by different nitrogen fertilisation, whereas those of gluten proteins (gliadins, glutenins) were strongly influenced. The effect on gliadins was more pronounced than on glutenins, as well as the effect on major protein types (α-gliadins, γ-gliadins, LMW subunits of glutenin) in comparison with minor types (ω-gliadins, HMW subunits of glutenin). The proportions of hydrophilic proteins (ω-gliadins, HMW subunits of glutenin) were increased by high levels of nitrogen and those of hydrophobic proteins (γ-gliadin, LMW subunits of glutenin) were decreased. The degree of the effects on both quantities and proportions of flour protein groups and gluten protein types was strongly dependent on the variety. © 1998 SCI.     

Mechanical and morphological study of polyurethane/polystyrene interpenetrating polymer networks containing ionic groups

The viscoelastic and mechanical properties and the morphology of polyurethane (PUR)/ olystyrene (PS) interpenetrating polymer networks (IPNs) containing ionic groups have been investigated. Dynamic mechanical thermal analysis (DMTA) revealed a pronounced change in the viscoelastic properties upon the introduction of ionic groups. For the 70 : 30 and 60 : 40 PUR/PS IPN compositions, the DMTA data changed from a dominant PUR to a dominant PS loss factor peak. Higher intertransition loss factor values indicated a significant improvement of IPN component mixing with increasing ionic content. The stress at break values increased only moderately, whereas sharp rises in Young's modulus and hardness values were found at 2 wt % ionic groups. At the same time, the strain at break values decreased by half. Scanning and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) indicated a grossly phase-separated morphology for the 70 : 30 PUR/PS IPN without ionic groups. With increasing methacrylic acid (MAA) content, the PS phase domain sizes decreased. At 2 wt % of ionic groups, a TEM micrograph showed interconnected PS phase domains resembling a network structure. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 67:1973–1985, 1998     

Investigation of combustion reactivity and NO emission characteristics of chars obtained from the devolatilization of raw and partially dried lignite

In an attempt to achieve the clean and efficient utilization of lignite, drying pre-treatment was performed in this study before lignite combustion. The combustion reactivity and NO emission characteristics of the partially dried lignite samples in the char combustion stage were investigated by means of TG and isothermal combustion tests, and the reactivity could be summarized as the following order: L1>L0.5>raw>L3>LT>L5 (chars obtained from the devolatilization of the raw and partially dried coals at 378 K for 0.5, 1, 3, 5, and 120 minutes) and the NO conversion ratio of L1 was the lowest. When the moisture content in the coal particles was relatively high (19.68%-35.84%), the drying treatment could increase the combustion reactivity and inhibit NO emission in the char combustion stage; When the moisture content was within a relatively low range (0.17%-19.68%), the moisture removal had negative effects on the reactivity and NO emission in the char combustion stage. The surface behaviour and microstructure of the raw coal char and chars derived from the partially dried coals were clarified by temperature programmed desorption/reduction (TPD/TPR) and Raman spectroscopy. The results illustrated that L1 derived from L_c1 (19.68%) was the most reactive sample with the largest amount of C(O) on the particle surface. There were also more reactive aromatic structures in L1 than other samples. Compared with direct combustion or excessive drying treatment, lignite should be dried to a certain degree (19.68%) for optimized lignite combustion.     

Mechanically robust ZrO2 foams with 3D reticular architecture prepared from chemical-modified ZrO2 powder

Engineering mechanically robust ZrO₂ foams with three-dimensional (3D) reticular architecture and high porosity is extremely challenging. In current work, we presented an approach for constructing such cellular ceramics via a combined polyurethane foaming and chemical grafting method. Ester functional groups were chemically grafted on the ZrO₂ powder surface to enhance its dispersibility. This approach caused the micron-sized windows to assemble onto the cell wall of porous framework, contributing to 3D interconnected reticular architecture. The resulting products with such cellular architecture possessed a high porosity level of 89.2% and maintained an ultrahigh compressive strength of 8.5 MPa. Our results open up new opportunities for fabricating high-performance ZrO₂ foams toward practical applications.
