Angular Momentum of a Brane-world Model
In this paper we discuss the properties of the general covariant angular
momentum of a five-dimensional brane-world model. Through calculating the total
angular momentum of this model, we are able to analyze the properties of the
total angular momentum in the inflationary RS model. We show that the
space-like components of the total angular momentum of are all zero while the
others are non-zero, which agrees with the results from ordinary RS model.Comment: 8 pages; accepted by Chinese Physics
Effect of finishing rolling reduction on microstructures and textures of grain oriented silicon steel
The effect of finishing rolling reduction on microstructures and textures of grain oriented silicon steel was researched by optical microscopy, zeiss ultra 55 Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and Electron Backscatter Diffraction (EBSD) technique severally. The results show that the grain size of hot rolled sheets and decarburized strips decreases, while the center grain size of the normalized sheet increases with the increase of the finishing rolling reduction. The pearlite content increases with the increase of the finishing rolling reduction after normalization. Compare with the previous research, the effect of finishing rolling reduction on the grain size of primary recrystallization is greater than that of roughing rolling reduction, and large rolling reduction is beneficial to the formation of {110} texture

Effect of hot rolling reduction on microstructures and textures of grain oriented silicon steel
The effect of hot rolling reduction on microstructures and textures of grain oriented silicon steel was studied by optical microscopy (OM), zeiss ultra 55 Scanning electron microscope (SEM) and Electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) technique respectively. The results indicate that the effect of hot rolling reduction on grain size of hot rolled and normalized sheets in surface layer is great, while the effect on grain size of primary recrystallized grain is little. The shear zone thickens with the finishing reduction decreases, moreover strong {111} and {110} textures can be obtained in hot rolled sheets. Combined with the previous research conclusions, it can be found that the rolling process of oriented silicon steel is contributed to the formation of texture, while the recrystallization process reduces the sharpness of the texture
A dual-patch polarization rotation reflective surface and its application to ultra-wideband RCS reduction
© 2017 IEEE. An ultra-wideband polarization rotation reflective surface (PRRS) with a high polarization conversion ratio (PCR) is proposed, which can reflect a linearly polarized incident wave with 90° polarization rotation. The unit cell of the proposed PRRS consists of a square and L-shaped patches printed on a substrate, which is covered by a superstrate and backed by a metallic ground. The two patches are connected to the ground using two metallic vias, respectively. Compared with the previously reported PRRS, the polarization rotation bandwidth of the proposed PRRS is enhanced from 49% to 97% with a high PCR of 96%. The frequency responses within the operation frequency band are consistent under oblique incident waves. Furthermore, the designed PRRS is applied to the ultra-wideband radar cross-section (RCS) reduction by forming a checkerboard surface. A 10-dB RCS reduction is achieved over an ultrawideband of 98%. To validate the simulation results, a prototype of the checkerboard surface is fabricated and measured. A good agreement between the experimental and simulation results is obtained
Nitrous oxide emission in low-oxygen simultaneous nitrification and denitrification process: Sources and mechanisms
This study attempts to elucidate the emission sources and mechanisms of nitrous oxide (N2O) during simultaneous nitrification and denitrification (SND) process under oxygen-limiting condition. The results indicated that N2O emitted during low-oxygen SND process was 0.8±0.1mgN/gMLSS, accounting for 7.7% of the nitrogen input. This was much higher than the reported results from conventional nitrification and denitrification processes. Batch experiments revealed that nitrifier denitrification was attributed as the dominant source of N2O production. This could be well explained by the change of ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB) community caused by the low-oxygen condition. It was observed that during the low-oxygen SND process, AOB species capable of denitrification, i.e., Nitrosomonas europaea and Nitrosomonas-like, were enriched whilst the composition of denitrifiers was only slightly affected. N2O emission by heterotrophic denitrification was considered to be limited by the presence of oxygen and unavailability of carbon source. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd
Two-dimensional Superconductivity from Dimerization of Atomically Ordered AuTe2Se4/3 Cubes
The emergent phenomena such as superconductivity and topological phase
transitions can be observed in strict two-dimensional crystalline matters.
Artificial interfaces and one atomic thickness layers are typical 2D materials
of this kind. Although having 2D characters, most bulky layered compounds,
however, do not possess these striking properties. Here, we report the 2D
superconductivity in bulky AuTe2Se4/3,where the reduction in dimensionality is
achieved through inducing the elongated covalent Te-Te bonds. The
atomic-resolution images reveal that the Au, Te and Se are atomically ordered
in a cube, among which are Te-Te bonds of 3.18 A and 3.28 A. The
superconductivity at 2.85 K is discovered, which is unraveled to be the
quasi-2D nature owing to the BKT topological transition. The nesting of nearly
parallel Fermi sheets could give rise to strong electron-phonon coupling. It is
proposed to further depleting the thickness could result in more
topologically-related phenomena.Comment: 16 pages, 5 figures,To be published in Nature Communication
Effect of Water Permeability Reduction Index on Gas Production from Hydrate-bearing Clayey-Silt Sediments by Depressurization
Gas hydrates in Shenhu area are mainly hosted in clayey-silt sediments, which will make its multiphase flow more complex. Therefore, they will have an impact on gas production from hydrate-bearing clayey-silt sediments. In this study, a twodimensional model was used to evaluate the behavior of hydrate production by depressurization in site SH2, Shenhu area, with different values of water permeability reduction index n. The results show that with the increase of n, the water production and gas production have decreased significantly. When n increases from 2.5 to 4.5,
