    The environmental assessment of landfill based on stakeholder analysis

    Get PDF
    AbstractFor the current issue that harmful landfill caused serious harm but had passed the environmental assessment, the paper uses the stakeholder analysis theory to analyze the stakeholders of landfill, and find the reasons existed in environmental assessment of landfill based on the simple review of the development and application of stakeholder analysis. And then it gave the countermeasure to the improvement of environmental assessment index system of landfill and the perfection of environmental assessment mechanism

    Evidence for MBM_B and MCM_C phases in the morphotropic phase boundary region of (1−x)[Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3]−xPbTiO3(1-x)[Pb(Mg_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3]-xPbTiO_3 : A Rietveld study

    We present here the results of the room temperature dielectric constant measurements and Rietveld analysis of the powder x-ray diffraction data on (1−x)[Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3]−xPbTiO3(1-x)[Pb(Mg_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3]-xPbTiO_3(PMN-xxPT) in the composition range 0.20≤x≤0.450.20 \leq x \leq 0.45 to show that the morphotropic phase boundary (MPB) region contains two monoclinic phases with space groups Cm (or MBM_B type) and Pm (or MCM_C type) stable in the composition ranges 0.27≤x≤0.300.27 \leq x \leq 0.30 and 0.31≤x≤0.340.31 \leq x \leq 0.34, respectively. The structure of PMN-xxPT in the composition ranges 0≤x≤0 \leq x \leq 0.26, and 0.35≤x≤10.35 \leq x \leq1 is found to be rhombohedral (R3m) and tetragonal (P4mm), respectively. These results are compared with the predictions of Vanderbilt & Cohen's theory.Comment: 20 pages, 11 pdf figure

    Genetic characterisation and cytological identification of a male sterile mutant in maize (Zea mays L.)

    Male sterile mutants play an important role in the utilisation of crop heterosis. Male sterile plants were found in S5 generations of maize hybrid ZH2, through continuous sib-mating by using the fertile plants in the same population, we obtained a male sterile sibling population K932MS including sterile plants K932S and a fertile plant K932F. The objective of this study was to clarify the genetic characterisation and abortion characteristics by nucleus and cytoplasm effect analyses, cytoplasm grouping, and cytological observation. The results showed that no difference was found between K932S and K932F in the vegetative growth stage, but K932S had no emerging anther or pollen grains. The segregation ratio of fertile plants to sterile plants was 1:1 in the sibling progenies, while it was 3:1 in self-crossing progenies of K932F. The sterility of K932S could be restored among reciprocal progenies when seven normal inbred lines were used as females respectively. The fertility expression of K932S crossed with 30 testers would be changed in different test-crosses and some backcross progenies. The C-type restorer Zifeng-1 (Rf4Rf4) was able to restore the fertility of K932S, and the specific PCR amplification bands of K932MS were consistent with CMSCMo17. The anther of K932S began abortion at dyad with its tapetum expanded radically and vacuolated: this induced abnormality in the shapes of both dyads and tetrads. The microspore could not develop normally, and then it collapsed and gradually disappeared. Hence, K932MS is a C-type cytoplasmic male sterile mutant with a pollen-free, stable inheritance: it has potential application value for further research

    Power-law entropy-corrected HDE and NADE in Brans-Dicke cosmology

    Full text link
    Considering the power-law corrections to the black hole entropy, which appear in dealing with the entanglement of quantum fields inside and outside the horizon, the holographic energy density is modified accordingly. In this paper we study the power-law entropy-corrected holographic dark energy in the framework of Brans-Dicke theory. We investigate the cosmological implications of this model in detail. We also perform the study for the new agegraphic dark energy model and calculate some relevant cosmological parameters and their evolution. {As a result we find that this model can provide the present cosmic acceleration and even the equation of state parameter of this model can cross the phantom line wD=−1w_D=-1 provided the model parameters are chosen suitably}.Comment: 14 pages, 2 figure, accepted by IJT

    On the stability and uniqueness of the flow of a fluid through a porous medium

    Get PDF
    © 2016, The Author(s). In this short note, we study the stability of flows of a fluid through porous media that satisfies a generalization of Brinkman’s equation to include inertial effects. Such flows could have relevance to enhanced oil recovery and also to the flow of dense liquids through porous media. In any event, one cannot ignore the fact that flows through porous media are inherently unsteady, and thus, at least a part of the inertial term needs to be retained in many situations. We study the stability of the rest state and find it to be asymptotically stable. Next, we study the stability of a base flow and find that the flow is asymptotically stable, provided the base flow is sufficiently slow. Finally, we establish results concerning the uniqueness of the flow under appropriate conditions, and present some corresponding numerical results
