矿井下着火点位置数值模拟研究

矿井煤炭自燃是煤矿五大自然灾害之一,而煤炭自燃隐蔽着火点位置的确定是解决煤炭自燃问题的关键。本文结合实际情况将火源位置的确定问题归结为热传导方程的寻源反问题。在理想状态下,把煤矿井下热传导的三维模型简化为二维模型,建立热传导方程及初始条件和边界条件,在matlab中编制了有限差分程序对井下着火点的温度场进行了正反演模拟。数值模拟结果表明:该方法能够较准确地反演出火源的特性,并随着离散化程度的提高,离散解逐渐逼近真实解。通过本文的数值模拟我们得知有限差分法求解热传导寻源反演的方法是解决矿井隐蔽火源发火点位置的有效途径之一,对矿井防、灭火研究具有较高的理论和实际应用价值。

An improved vehicle-pedestrian near-crash identification method with a roadside LiDAR sensor

Problem: Potential conflicts between pedestrians and vehicles represent a challenge to pedestrian safety. Near-crash is used as a surrogate metric for pedestrian safety evaluations when historical vehicle–pedestrian crash data are not available. One challenge of using near-crash data for pedestrian safety evaluation is the identification of near-crash events. Method: This paper introduces a novel method for pedestrian-vehicle near-crash identification that uses a roadside LiDAR sensor. The trajectory of each road user can be extracted from roadside LiDAR data via several data processing algorithms: background filtering, lane identification, object clustering, object classification, and object tracking. Three indicators, namely, the post encroachment time (PET), the proportion of the stopping distance (PSD), and the crash potential index (CPI) are applied for conflict risk classification. Results: The performance of the developed method was evaluated with field-collected data at four sites in Reno, Nevada, United States. The results of case studies demonstrate that pedestrian-vehicle near-crash events could be identified successfully via the proposed method. Practical applications: The proposed method is especially suitable for pedestrian-vehicle near-crash identification at individual sites. The extracted near-crash events can serve as supplementary material to naturalistic driving study (NDS) data for safety evaluation.     

Beyond demographic identities and motivation to learn: The effect of organizational identification on diversity training outcomes

There is a pressing need for better explanations of diversity training effectiveness so that organizations can administer training programs that facilitate positive intergroup interactions. In this paper, we consider the unique predictive effect of organizational identification on diversity training outcomes beyond the effects of the traditional predictors of demographic-based identities and motivation to learn across two samples of employees involved in diversity-related training at their employing organizations. Organizational identification predicted unique variance in voluntary participation in diversity training, diversity training-related knowledge application, motivation to transfer diversity training, and diversity training-related organizational citizenship behavior intentions. Research and practitioner implications are discussed based on our findings.     

一株甲醛降解真菌Aspergillus spp.H4的分离鉴定

甲醛是一种广泛使用和很重要的化工原材料,但它同时也是对大多数生物有机体有高毒性的物质。通过添加甲醛的选择性培养基从淤泥里分离了一株甲醛耐受真菌,将其接种于加孟加拉红的PDA培养基、察氏培养基、麦芽汁培养基平板培养,观察它的培养特征和孢子结构,结合DNA提取、PCR扩增、产物测序、GenBank比对等分子鉴定手段,结果表明:其培养特征、显微特征和黄曲霉(Aspergillus flavus)相似,18SrDNA序列与黄曲霉(Aspergillus flavus)同源率达99.8%。我们把它命名为Aspergillus flavus H4。该真菌最适生长pH值为pH5.5,在培养的144h内ρ(甲醛)从1241mg·L-1下降到4mg·L-1。在培养的96h内ρ(甲醛)下降迅速,A值上升缓慢,当ρ(甲醛)下降到10mg·L-1时,也就是120h时,A值迅速上升,ρ(甲醛)下降缓慢。结论是这株Aspergillus flavus H4是甲醛耐受(降解)真菌。     

东海原甲藻Prorocentrum donghaiense Lu生物学研究进展

东海原甲藻(Prorocentrum donghaiense Lu)是中国沿海频繁发生的大规模赤潮的原因种之一。文章对东海原甲藻的命名、生理生态和分子生物学等方面的研究成果作了综述。东海原甲藻与在日本、韩国等亚洲海域分布的被报道为Prorocentrum dentatum的原甲藻以及来自美国CCMP的具齿原甲藻(Prorocentrum dentatum)为同一种。东海原甲藻是一种喜长光照的赤潮藻类,其生长的最适温度为22℃,最适盐度为25~31。东海原甲藻能利用铵盐、硝酸盐和亚硝酸盐,最适生长的w(N)/w(P)比范围在8~20之间。作者构建了东海原甲藻cDNA文库并进行了EST分析,发现了22个与东海原甲藻生长发育、物质转换和能量代谢相关的基因标签。认为从基因表达及调控角度研究赤潮形成与消亡机制并阐明它与环境因子的关系是必要的。

Secondary metabolism — evolution and function: Products or processes?

Summary The distinguishing characteristics of secondary metabolism and its associated metabolites are outlined. Current theories relating to the function of secondary metabolism in plants and micro-organisms are enumerated and the view that consideration of the processes rather than the products may best explain the origins of secondary metabolism is discussed.     

Courtship display by great frigatebirds, Fregata minor: an energetically costly handicap signal?

We used detailed time-budget observations, mark-resight data, and doubly labeled water estimates of energy expenditure to test whether energy spent on courtship display by male frigatebirds functions as a sexually selected handicap signal. During a 2-day period of time budget observations, males displayed on average 29.5% of the time (range 0–100% for 15 different males), and this value was correlated with an index of season-long display effort. Season-long display effort was strongly predictive of pairing success. Average field metabolic rate (FMR) during the 2-day time budget period was 676.5 kJ/day (range 464.8–1035.0), substantially lower than the mass-specific FMR predicted from studies of other seabirds during incubation or chick-rearing. Despite a low overall FMR, display effort could function as an energetic handicap, either if FMR correlates positively with the amount of courtship performed or if high-quality males display at a high rate because they pay a lower energy cost per unit of display than do low-quality males. We found no relationship between FMR and display rate, despite good power for doing so. We also did not find a significant difference in energy spent divided by courtship time for males that were or were not chosen by females (inferred to be high- and low-quality males, respectively), though the medians differed in the predicted direction (preferred males having lower relative costs than non-preferred males) and the confidence interval on the difference between groups was very wide. Thus, we found evidence that male courtship effort is predictive of pairing success, we rejected one mechanism by which energetic cost of display could function as a handicap, and our test of the alternate energetic handicap mechanism was equivocal.
