三七灰土本构关系及强度性质试验

对6种含水率、4种不同围压条件下的灰土试样进行了室内不固结、不排水的三轴试验,探讨了不同含水率试样适用的本构模型及其强度变化规律。试验结果表明：灰土的脆塑性受含水率和围压共同制约,不同含水率情况下,灰土的应力-应变关系有着不同的形式,在含水率较低时可采用胡克模型,含水率较高时采用邓肯-张模型更为合理,这一含水率界限应在塑限附近;三七灰土的强度参数均可由含水率和围压给出;所得结论可为三七灰土工程数值模拟计算提供参考,具有工程应用价值。

Determination of intrinsic birefringence values of polycaprolactone filaments

Intrinsic birefringences of polycaprolactone filaments are determined using the approach suggested by Samuels. First, intrinsic lateral moduli are determined from the values of crystallinity and sonic moduli of unoriented filaments. These values are found to be 3.473 GPa and 0.071 GPa, respectively, for crystalline and amorphous regions. The crystallinity, sonic moduli and crystalline orientation function of drawn and heat set filaments are used to evaluate amorphous orientation functions. Finally, Stein and Norris's equation along with birefringence data is used to obtain intrinsic birefringence values of crystalline and amorphous regions and these values are found to be 0.079 ± 0.002 for crystalline regions and 0.066 ± 0.008 for amorphous regions.

Effect of thermal damage on mechanical behavior and transport properties of self-compacting concrete incorporating polypropylene fibers

Explosive spalling of cementitious composites when it is heated from surface is considered to be the most dangerous effect of damage of concrete structures subjected to fire attack, especially when it occurs in restricted areas such as underground tunnels. The main objective of the study presented in this paper is to investigate the influence of high temperature on mechanical behavior, pore size distribution and transport properties of self-compacting concrete reinforced with polypropylene fibers (PPF). The experiment investigation was carried out using two mixtures with a constant water-to-binder ratio (w/b) of 0.37. Two SCCs mixtures were manufactured using an industrial cements according to European standard EN 197 1: CEM I 52.5?N (Portland cement), the difference between the mixtures is the presence of PPF. The amount of fibers used was fixed in 2?kg/m³, as recommends Eurocode 2 for high performance concrete to avoid explosive spalling. The specimens were subjected to various heating-cooling cycles from the room temperature 20?°C to 200?°C, 300?°C, 400?°C and 500?°C. The chloride resistance of the two SCC produced with the different mixtures in damaged and undamaged state are measured using a chloride migration test accelerated by an external applied electrical field. Intrinsic permeability is measured using the nitrogen gas. Klinkenberg approach is used for the determination of the intrinsic permeability. Torrent permeability measurement method was applied in this article, and a correlation was obtained between measure of intrinsic permeability and the Torrent permeability measurement. Finally, a relationship between thermal damage indicators and the increase in permeability and migration coefficients is also obtained.     

Human Interleukin 23 Receptor Induces Cell Apoptosis in Mammalian Cells by Intrinsic Mitochondrial Pathway Associated with the Down-Regulation of RAS/Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase and Signal Transducers and Activators of Transcription factor 3 Signaling Pathways

The composition of IL-23R complex is similar to that of the IL-12 receptor (IL-12R) complex with a shared IL-12R-β1 chain. The IL-12R-β1 heterodimerizes with IL-23R and IL-12R-β2 to form IL-23R and IL-12R complexes, respectively. The IL-12R-β2 has been shown to function as a tumor suppressor gene and apoptotic inducer. However, whether IL-23R also functions in cell apoptosis is currently unknown. In this study, we demonstrate for the first time that overexpression of IL-23R markedly induces cell apoptosis in both 293ET and HeLa cells. The activations of caspase 3 and caspase 9 are induced by IL-23R. Mechanistic study reveals that IL-23R markedly inhibits RAS/MAPK and STAT3 but not STAT1 and PI-3K/Akt signaling pathways in both 293ET and HeLa cells. Overexpression of IL-23R significantly up-regulates IL-12Rβ1 expression but not IL-23α and IL-12β expressions in both cell lines. Therefore, our data strongly indicates that IL-23R is able to induce cell apoptosis by activating the intrinsic mitochondrial pathways associated with the inhibition in RAS/MAPK and STAT3 activations in mammalian cells.
