Design of hexa‐band planar inverted‐F antenna using hybrid BSO‐NM algorithm for mobile phone communications

This article presents a new design of multiband planar inverted‐F antenna with slotted ground plane and S‐etched slot on the radiation patch. The proposed antenna is optimized using an efficient global hybrid optimization method combining bacterial swarm optimization and Nelder‐Mead (BSO‐NM) algorithm to cover a very important six service bands including GSM900, GPS1575, DCS1800, PCS1900, ISM2450, and 4G5000 MHz with enhanced bandwidths. The BSO‐NM algorithm in Matlab code is linked to the CST Microwave studio software to simulate the antenna. To validate the results, the antenna is analyzed using the finite difference time domain (FDTD) method. A good agreement is achieved between the results of EM simulation and that produced from the FDTD method. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J RF and Microwave CAE, 2013.     

PET polymer ablation using excimer laser for nozzle plate application

Abstract

Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) film drilling using a 248 nm excimer laser through photomask projection is presented. The parameter effects of laser fluence, shot number and repetition rate on the processing results are examined. A high quality microhole array with 50 μm thick PET film is fabricated. When the projection process is carried out, the diameter differences in the microhole in the front and back side of PET are observed. This causes a conical shape in the kerf. The formation of this conical shape in terms of the laser process parameters is discussed. The process parameter effects are investigated and characterised to improve the PET microhole laser machining quality.     

耐腐蚀NM360耐磨钢板的试制及其性能研究

由于煤矿刮板运输机服役的恶劣环境,对传统NM360耐磨钢的耐蚀及耐磨性能提出了更高的要求。综合考虑合金元素对钢材耐蚀性的提升作用,在传统耐磨钢成分的基础上,采取添加一定量的Cu、Ni合金元素的方法,开发了耐腐蚀NM360钢板。采用场发射扫描电镜,透射电子显微镜以及布氏硬度仪对耐腐蚀NM360钢板的组织及硬度进行分析研究;通过干砂/橡胶轮磨损试验机测试了耐腐蚀NM360钢板的磨损性能;利用腐蚀挂片试验测试了耐腐蚀NM360钢板的腐蚀性能。结果表明,虽然添加Cu、Ni元素后耐腐蚀NM360钢板与传统耐磨钢板硬度相当,但耐腐蚀性能及耐磨性能均有一定程度的提升。

在轮胎气密层中使用了空气阻止剂NM360和氯磺化聚乙烯作为增强气密层性能的新材料。当NM360和氯磺化聚乙烯单独使用时,对气密层的气密性能影响不大,但是二者同时使用时,气密层的气密性大幅上升18%。因此,NM360和氯磺化聚乙烯具有协同作用,二者的协同作用可以大大增加气密层的气密性能。     

Spontaneous Cell Detachment and Reattachment in Cancer Cell Lines: An In Vitro Model of Metastasis and Malignancy

There is an unmet need for simplified in vitro models of malignancy and metastasis that facilitate fast, affordable and scalable gene and compound analysis. “Adherent” cancer cell lines frequently release “free-floating” cells into suspension that are viable and can reattach. This, in a simplistic way, mimics the metastatic process. We compared the gene expression profiles of naturally co-existing populations of floating and adherent cells in SW620 (colon), C33a (cervix) and HeLa (cervix) cancer cells. We found that 1227, 1367 and 1333 genes were at least 2-fold differentially expressed in the respective cell lines, of which 122 were shared among the three cell lines. As proof of principle, we focused on the anti-metastatic gene NM23-H1, which was downregulated both at the RNA and protein level in the floating cell populations of all three cell lines. Knockdown of NM23-H1 significantly increased the number of floating (and viable) cells, whereas overexpression of NM23-H1 significantly reduced the proportion of floating cells. Other potential regulators of these cellular states were identified through pathway analysis, including hypoxia, mTOR (mechanistic target of rapamycin), cell adhesion and cell polarity signal transduction pathways. Hypoxia, a condition linked to malignancy and metastasis, reduced NM23-H1 expression and significantly increased the number of free-floating cells. Inhibition of mTOR or Rho-associated protein kinase (ROCK) significantly increased cell death specifically in the floating and not the adherent cell population. In conclusion, our study suggests that dynamic subpopulations of free-floating and adherent cells is a useful model to screen and identify genes, drugs and pathways that regulate the process of cancer metastasis, such as cell detachment and anoikis.     

NM500耐磨钢的奥氏体转变

研究了500 HBW级别耐磨钢板的相变规律、微观组织和力学性能。结果表明：给定钢的化学成分,淬火冷却速度的变化会强烈影响奥氏体淬火后的组织结构和力学性能。研究的钢种冷速从3 ℃/s变化到55 ℃/s,钢的维氏硬度从341 HV10提高到596 HV10,对应抗拉强度变化范围 979~1690 MPa,强度和硬度随冷速增加而提高。分析主要原因是室温组织结构从低冷速下的铁素体珠光体逐渐变成了较高冷速下的贝氏体或马氏体。

Targeted Silencing of MART-1 Gene Expression by RNA Interference Enhances the Migration Ability of Uveal Melanoma Cells

Uveal melanoma (UM) is the most common primary intraocular malignancy and the leading potentially fatal primary intraocular disease in adults. Melanoma antigen recognized by T-cells (MART-1) has been studied extensively as a clinically important diagnostic marker for melanoma, however, its biological function remains unclear. In the present study, the UM cell line SP6.5, which showed a high level of MART-1 expression, was subjected to small interfering RNA-mediated silencing of MART-1. Silencing of MART-1 expression increased the migration ability of SP6.5 cells and down-regulated the expression of the metastasis suppressor NM23. Our results suggest that MART-1 is a candidate target for the development of therapeutic strategies for UM and in particular for the suppression of metastasis associated with this malignancy.
