Authors: Andrian Suner  , Linda Trisna
Published: July 2020

Abstract

Background: Convergence Insufficiency (CI) is an inability to perform convergence movements when doing near activity. The prevalence of CI was estimated varying between 0.1%-8%. One of the easiest therapeutic attempts from some research have showed the effectiveness to overcome CI is by pencil push up therapy. This study is to determine the improvement of CI symptoms and signs in patients after performing the pencil push up exercise for 8 weeks.

Methods: This clinical trial was conducted on October 2016-March 2017. Nineteen patients who met the inclusion criteria was obtained. The frequency and distribution of data is described in tabular form and the effectiveness of pencil push up therapy is analyzed with Paired T Test and Wilcoxon test.

Result: Patients with CI had an average age of approximately 22 years, with the sex ratio of females and males being 3:2. After 8 weeks of pencil push up therapy, there was a significant decrease of Convergence Insufficiency Symptom Survey (CISS) value from 25.2±3.72 to 15.7±5.64 (p=0.000), significantly decreased Near Point Convergence (NPC) value from 13.7±1.88 cm to 9.05±2.99 cm (p=0.000), significantly decreased Red Blue Test (RBT) value from 14.2±1.84 to 9,36±3.22 cm (p=0.000), and significantly decreased Penlight Red/Green Test (PLT) from 16.7±2.69 to 10.7±4.13 cm (p=0.000). A number of Alternate Cover Test (ACT) positives also decreased from 4 to 2 samples but not significant (p=0,500). Symptoms and signs of CI were improved in 14 samples (73.7%).

Conclusion: Pencil push up therapy for 8 weeks is effective to improve symptoms and signs of convergence insufficiency.

Authors: Elisa Taurisia  , Amin Ramzi , Ansyori AK
Published: July 2020

Introduction. Macular edema is the most common cause of visual impairment in NPDR. Macular edema occurs due to increased perifoveal capillary permeability resulting in fluid accumulation in the macular area. Control of blood sugar levels is an important factor in the management of diabetic retinopathy because it can reduce the risk of progression of retinopathy, decreased vision and macular edema. Currently, focal photocoagulation argon lasers are the only proven long-term treatment for diabetic macular edema.

Case presentation. Reported case of a 55-year-old woman, address outside the city, came to the Palembang RSMH eye clinic with complaints of blurred vision since ± 6 months ago. three days ago, the patient went to an internal medicine clinic and was said to have high blood sugar and blood pressure. The views of both sufferers' eyes are increasingly blurred. The treatment chosen for this patient was intravitreal anti-VEGF (bevacizumab) injection in the right and left eye to reduce vascular permeability thereby reducing macular edema. 1-time bevacizumab injection has only a short-term optimal effect so re-injection is needed at 4-6 weeks intervals.

Conclusion. A clinically significant case of macular edema (CSME) has been reported that is treated with intravitreal anti-VEGF combined with focal photon photocoagulation laser. The patient's final vision 1 week after the focal photocoagulation argon laser was performed showed improvement
High-Speed Rail
Authors: Mitchell Aaron
Published: July 2020

With the Texas Central’s high-speed rail fast approaching in Texas, legislators have been presented with an opportunity to reform Texas’ eminent domain laws. The controversial urban-versus-rural project has brought eminent domain policy to the limelight. The Texas Legislature can capitalize on lessons learned from the State’s bout with the Trans-Pecos Pipeline by protecting condemnees and incentivizing good faith efforts by condemnors.

This Article proposes five possible reforms for eminent domain law in Texas. First, the Texas Legislature should protect condemnees by aligning their appraisal disclosure requirements with condemnors, who have no duties to disclose appraisals. Second, legislative changes would allow attorney’s fees to be awarded to a condemnee when a condemnor’s offer is significantly lower than the actual value of the property. Third, legislative changes would inform condemnees of exactly which pieces of land that condemnors have the power to take when condemnors make their offer. Fourth, this Article proposes sensible protections for Texas homesteads. Last, this Article explores legislative and judicial blocks that can be used by opponents of the rail.

Adanite, Pb2(Te4+O3)(SO4), is a new oxidation-zone mineral from the North Star mine, Tintic district, Juab County, Utah, and from Tombstone, Cochise County, Arizona, USA. The characterization of the species is based principally on North-Star holotype material. Crystals are beige wedge-shaped blades, up to about 1 mm in length, in cockscomb intergrowths. The mineral is transparent with adamantine luster, white streak, Mohs hardness 2½, brittle tenacity, conchoidal fracture, and no cleavage. The calculated density is 6.385 g/cm3. Adanite is biaxial (–), with α = 1.90(1), β = 2.04(calc), γ = 2.08(calc), 2V(meas) = 54(1)°. The Raman spectrum is consistent with the presence of tellurite and sulfate groups and the absence of OH and H2O. Electron-microprobe analyses gave the empirical formula Pb1.89Sb3+0.02Te4+0.98S6+1.04Cl0.02O6.98. The mineral is monoclinic, space group P21/n, with a = 7.3830(3), b = 10.7545(5), c = 9.3517(7) Å, β = 111.500(8)°, V = 690.86(7) Å3, and Z = 4. The four strongest X-ray powder diffraction lines are [dobs Å(I)(hkl)]: 6.744(47), 3.454(80), 3.301(100), and 3.048(73). The structure (R1 = 0.022 for 1906 I > 2σI reflections) contains Te4+O3 pyramids that are joined by short (strong) Pb–O bonds to form sheets. Interlayer SO4 groups link the sheets via long Pb–O and Te–O bonds.

En el presente trabajo se pretende mostrar un análisis que los administradores del Gobierno TI deberían considerar a la hora de realizar la selección de su infraestructura. Se utiliza el modelo Costo Total de Propiedad (TCO), herramienta de análisis de gestión de costos, con la cual se calcula, a lo largo del ciclo de vida, todos los costos (directos e indirectos) asociados con el desarrollo, operación y el mantenimiento de un proyecto/inversión TI en el modelo tradicional y su comparación ante la implementación en nube pública.
A New Coordinated Control of Hybrid Microgrids with Renewable Energy Resources Under Variable Loads and Generation Conditions
Authors: Alhasnawi Bilal , Jasim Basil
Published: July 2020

The hybrid AC/DC microgrid is considered to be more and more popular in power systems as increasing loads. In this study, it is presented that the hybrid AC/DC microgrid is modeled with some renewable energy sources (e.g. solar energy, wind energy) in the residential of the consumer in order to meet the demand. The power generation and consumption are undergoing a major transformation. One of the tendencies is to integrate microgridsinto the distribution network with high penetration ofrenewable energy resources. In this paper, a new distributed coordinated control is proposed for hybrid microgrid, which could apply to both grid-connected mode and islanded mode with hybrid energy resources and variable loads. The proposed system permits coordinated operation of distributed energy resources to concede necessary active power and additional service whenever required. Also, the maximum power point tracking technique is applied to both photovoltaic stations and wind turbines to
extract the maximum power from the hybrid power system during the variation of the environmental conditions. Finally, a simulation model is built with a photovoltaic, wind turbine, hybrid microgrid as the paradigm, which can be applied to different scenarios, such as small-sized commercial and residential buildings. The simulation results have verified the effectiveness and feasibility of the introduced strategy for a hybrid microgrid operating in different modes.
Aplicabilidade do treinamento com oclusão vascular para incremento de hipertrofia e força muscular: estudo de revisão
Authors: Guimarães Brenda Mendonça , Alves Rafael Ribeiro , Lopes Lorena Cristina Curado
Published: July 2020

Atualmente, diversas evidências demonstram que a prática do treinamento resistido (TR) promove hipertrofia e aumento da força muscular com cargas (kg) entre 30-80% de 1 repetição máxima (1RM). Contudo, apesar do método de treinamento com oclusão vascular (TOV) e cargas baixas ser amplamente utilizado com estas finalidades, a sua eficiência não está totalmente consolidada. Portanto, o objetivo do estudo foi verificar os efeitos do treinamento com oclusão vascular sobre a hipertrofia e força muscular. Como método foi realizado uma revisão de literatura, nas bases de dado Pubmed, LILACS e Scielo com as seguintes palavras-chave: treinamento de oclusão, Kaatsu training, oclusão vascular, treinamento resistido, blood flow restriction, Kaatsu training, resistance training. Foram incluídos artigos disponíveis em língua portuguesa e inglesa entre os anos de 2000 à 2020. Os resultados demonstraram que o método de TOV é eficiente para aumentar a hipertrofia e força muscular em diferentes populações/situações utilizando cargas baixas. Além disso, as alterações fisiológicas inerentes da oclusão vascular são eficientes na reabilitação e/ou manutenção da massa muscular durante períodos de imobilização ou incapacidade de mover o membro. Contudo, o treinamento deve ser prescrito levando em consideração a especificidade do indivíduo afim de evitar possíveis efeitos adversos.

A NOVEL DECISION-MAKING MODEL FOR SELECTING A CONSTRUCTION PROJECT DELIVERY SYSTEM
Authors: Zhu Xingyu , Meng Xianhai , Chen Yongqiang
Published: July 2020

It is crucial for the owner of a construction project to select an appropriate project delivery system (PDS)
during early decision-making stages of the project. Due to project uncertainty or a lack of project information, the parameters of
a PDS are difficult to measure and quantify. Therefore, there are still major challenges to the objective selection of PDSs. This
research proposes a novel systematic decision-making model to select the appropriate PDS by using the combination of case-based
reasoning (CBR) and robust nonparametric production frontier method. The Bayesian-Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) supported
Z-order-m method is interpreted into the case retrieves process of traditional CBR method in order to eliminate the deteriorative
internal and external influence for PDS selection. The case study was based on questionnaire survey conducted in China and used
to test the validation of the proposed model. The findings reveal that the systematic decision-making model can overcome some problems
of the traditional methods and improve the accuracy of PDS selection. As a result, this research has both theoretical and practical
implications for the construction industry.
Relativistic Envelopes and Gamma-Rays from Neutron Star Mergers
Authors: Beloborodov Andrei M. , Lundman Christoffer , Levin Yuri
Published: July 2020

We suggest that neutron star mergers eject an ultrarelativistic envelope of mass m ∼ 10−7
M
⊙, which helps explain the gamma-ray burst from GW170817. One ejection mechanism is the ablation of the neutron star surface by the burst of neutrinos in the first 30 μs of the merger. Another, more efficient mechanism for inflating the ultrarelativistic envelope is an internal shock in the massive ejecta from the merger. A strong shock is expected if the merger product is a magnetar, which emits a centrifugally accelerated wind. The shock propagates outward through the ejecta and accelerates in its outer layers at radii r ∼ 109–1010 cm, launching an ultrarelativistic opaque envelope filled with ∼104 photons per nucleon. The Lorentz factor profile of the envelope rises outward and determines its homologous expansion, which adiabatically cools the trapped photons. Once the magnetar loses its differential rotation and collapses into a black hole, a powerful jet forms. It drives a blast wave into the envelope, chasing its outer layers, and eventually catching up with the envelope photosphere at r ∼ 1012 cm. The ultrarelativistic photospheric breakout of the delayed blast wave emits a gamma-ray burst in a broad solid angle around the merger axis. This model explains the gamma-ray pulse from merger GW170817 with luminosity L

γ
 ∼ 1047 erg s−1, duration

, and characteristic photon energy ∼100 keV. The blast-wave Lorentz factor at the envelope photosphere is consistent with Γ ≳ 5, which we derive from the observed light curve of the burst. We suggest future tests of the model.
Distance to the Energetic Neutral Hydrogen Source from the Heliotail

Published: July 2020

The interaction of the solar wind (SW) with the partially ionized interstellar medium forms the heliosphere. As the supersonic SW flows away from the Sun and incorporates pickup ions (PUIs), they are slowed, compressed, and heated at a termination shock, creating an energetic ion population in the inner heliosheath. The neutralization of PUIs in the heliosheath creates energetic neutral atoms (ENAs) at ∼keV energies that travel ballistically and can be observed at 1 au by the Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX). IBEX uses single-pixel cameras to map ENAs from the heliosphere. In this study, we analyze IBEX observations of >1 keV ENAs from the heliotail during 2009–2017. The ENA spectral index maximizes near the ecliptic plane and decreases at higher latitudes, reflecting the latitudinal structure of the SW. We show that the angular spread of this structure can be used to derive the distance at which the observed ENAs originate, i.e., their cooling length. Using Ulysses observations of the SW we determine that the distance from the Sun to the source of ∼1–6 keV ENAs in the heliotail is ≥289 ± 35 au in 2009–2013 and ≥489 ± 56 au in 2014–2017, using the distance to the termination shock in the downwind direction as 160 au based on the analysis of McComas et al. The increase in ENA source distance over time suggests that IBEX is observing a fast/hotter plasma parcel propagating down the heliotail before being replaced by slow/cooler plasma as the solar cycle evolves.

Velocity and density field reconstructions of the volume of the universe within 0.05c derived from the Cosmicflows-3 catalog of galaxy distances has revealed the presence of a filamentary structure extending across ∼0.11c. The structure, at a characteristic redshift of 12,000 km s−1, has a density peak coincident with the celestial South Pole. This structure, the largest contiguous feature in the local volume and comparable to the Sloan Great Wall at half the distance, is given the name the South Pole Wall.

We report follow-up observations of four transiting exoplanets, TRES-2 b, HAT-P-22 b, HAT-P-36 b and XO-2 b, as part of the Original Research By Young Twinkle Students (ORBYTS) program. These observations were taken using the Las Cumbres Observatory Global Telescope Network’s (LCOGT) robotic 0.4 m telescopes and were analyzed using the HOlomon Photometric Software (HOPS). Such observations are key for ensuring accurate transit times for upcoming telescopes, such as the James Webb Space Telescope, Twinkle (Edwards et al. 2019b) and Ariel (Tinetti et al. 2018), which may seek to characterize the atmospheres of these planets. The data have been uploaded to ExoClock and a significant portion of this work has been completed by secondary school students in London.
Anthropological Specimens or War Trophies?
Authors: Faber-Jonker Leonor
Published: July 2020

Cet article soutient que les restes humains recueillis pendant le génocide Herero et Nama dans le Sud-Ouest africain (1904-1908) étaient des trophées ainsi que des spécimens scientifiques. Les scientifiques et les militaires ont lancé la collecte de crânes, d’os et d’autres parties du corps retrouvés aujourd’hui dans les collections anthropologiques. Ces restes n’étaient pas des spécimens neutres, mais les parties du corps d’un ennemi colonial craint et détesté. Les pratiques de collecte et d’étude de ces données ont justifié et nourri des idées sur la supériorité raciale à l’origine du génocide.
Une typologie des prises de butin à Benin City en février 1897
Authors: Bodenstein Felicity
Published: July 2020

Les objets du royaume du Benin en ivoire, corail, laiton, bois et autres matériaux, présents dans des musées partout dans le monde, ont été pour la plupart pillés par les forces navales britanniques en 1897 lors d’une expédition dite punitive contre le souverain du Bénin, l’Oba Ovonramwen (1857-1914). Toutefois les circonstances et les mécanismes exacts de ce pillage restent encore à établir. Cet article propose une typologie des pratiques de collecte afin de mieux comprendre quelles valeurs et quelles significations leur attribuent alors les membres de l’expédition. Elle permet aussi de mieux comprendre l’état lacunaire de nos connaissances sur la vie sociale de ces objets pillés et déplacés en Europe et ailleurs.

En avril 1900, la tête décapitée de Rabah, Sultan de Bornou vaincu par les Français, est photographiée puis exposée pendant plusieurs jours après la bataille de Kousséri. Un an et demi plus tôt, ce sont les Britanniques qui détruisent la tombe du Mahdi après la victoire d’Omdurman et prennent son crâne, que l’on envisage d’envoyer à Londres. Cet article reconstruit les trajectoires de ces restes humains et l’évolution de leurs significations, en mettant en relief le fonctionnement du co-impérialisme franco-britannique.
Entre science et sauvagerie
Authors: Foliard Daniel
Published: July 2020

Cet article analyse la collecte et les circulations de restes humains au sein de l’Empire britannique au cours du xix e  siècle. Il démontre à quel point ces usages étaient intimement liés à des pratiques scientifiques, d’exploration et de conquête. La demande croissante de crânes à des fins scientifiques en Europe favorisa la démultiplication des stratégies de collecte, de la profanation de tombeaux à la récolte de restes sur les champs de bataille des guerres coloniales. À l’aide de plusieurs études de cas, cette étude vise à montrer les évolutions des usages de ces objets très spécifiques ainsi qu’à étudier leurs perceptions changeantes dans la métropole impériale et leurs classifications à l’époque.
Une instance clinique de la pulsion de mort dans une analyse d’enfant
Authors: Lichtenstein David , Signorelli Mila
Published: July 2020

La pulsion est un concept fondamental, une « fiction nécessaire » pour la psychanalyse. Dans l’intérêt d’enraciner le sujet dans les structures socioculturelles, nombre de psychanalystes contemporains considèrent cette fiction ou mythologie comme inutile. Ils s’y opposent soit à l’aspect biologique, soit à l’aspect solipsiste de la théorie des pulsions. Pourtant, si nous considérons ce qu’il y a de plus subtil et dialectique dans l’idée de pulsion chez Freud et aussi dans l’élaboration qu’en font Lacan et Laplanche, nous pouvons construire une approche proprement psychanalytique de cette idée, jusqu’à son corollaire le plus controversé, la pulsion de mort. Le présent article examine la pulsion de mort comme une façon d’amplifier une vision de la division du sujet comme un effet du discours.
Unexpected Antecedents to the Concept of the Death Drive
Authors: Wolff Bernstein Jeanne
Published: July 2020

Même si Freud n’a introduit Éros et Thanatos que tardivement (en 1920), il existait déjà des idées précurseuses dans sa théorie et dans ses écrits plus anciens, qui ne sont pas d’ordinaire associées à la pulsion de mort. Le présent article propose un retour aux origines de la théorisation de la pulsion de mort et de la détermination de sa double nature complexe, entrelacée avec l’Éros. La description de la pulsion de mort comme une force qui n’est pas exclusivement destructrice sert à l’auteure de point de départ pour une approximation avec la notion lacanienne de jouissance , ce qui lui permet de penser aux travaux cliniques actuels et à la construction d’une théorie contemporaine.
From Neoliberalism to the Cognitive-Behavioural Tsunami in Great Britain
Authors: Rabeyron Thomas
Published: July 2020

Ce travail propose une analyse critique de l’évolution des prises en charge psychothérapiques en Grande-Bretagne à partir des réflexions de Farhad Dalal (2019) dans un ouvrage intitulé CBT: The Cognitive Behavioural Tsunami . Après avoir souligné les affinités idéologiques qui associent néolibéralisme et thérapies cognitivo-comportementales (TCC), nous décrivons la manière dont ces dernières ont construit un mythe de leurs origines reposant sur l’idée, mensongère et démentie par la recherche empirique, de leur supposée meilleure efficacité en rapport des autres approches. Ce discours idéologique s’inscrit plus largement dans le contexte actuel des Psy Wars et le développement de la psychiatrie biologique ayant mené aux évolutions contemporaines du DSM. L’émergence du néo-libéralisme et son impact sociétal menant à l’ homo economicus ainsi que les méthodes du management qui en découlent sont ensuite présentés. Ces différents éléments contextuels aident à comprendre la naissance à la mise en place de l’IAPT en Grande-Bretagne, un large programme censé améliorer les prises en charge psychothérapiques à partir d’une libéralisation de ce secteur. Ce programme s’appuie sur les recommandations du NICE qui a favorisé l’utilisation quasi exclusive des TCC. Après avoir présenté comment un patient est suivi grâce à l’IAPT, nous soulignons les dérives et les échecs de ce système. Nous proposons ensuite une synthèse des différentes formes de corruptions scientifiques associées aux TCC en prenant pour exemple deux études récentes. Ces dérives rendent intelligible l’écart observé entre les résultats empiriques des recherches en ce domaine et le manque d’efficacité des TCC dans la prise en charge des patients. L’ensemble de ces éléments apparaissent essentiels afin de ne pas reproduire en France les mêmes erreurs qu’en Grande-Bretagne dans la mise en place des futures politiques de santé publique dans le champ des psychothérapies.

Les collaboratrices face aux tribunaux de l'épuration : le cas de la Loire-Inférieure
Authors: Lostec Fabien
Published: July 2020

De manière incontestable, il existe un « moment Libération » dans le rapport que les femmes entretiennent avec la justice. Mais si cette séquence a pu être questionnée dans de nombreux départements, ce n’est pas le cas en Loire-Inférieure. La répartition par sexe des individus jugés par les tribunaux de l’épuration y demeurait donc jusqu’alors inconnue. Ceci est d’autant plus surprenant que, avec plus de 1 900 affaires et environ 1 850 personnes jugées, les tribunaux civils nantais sont ceux qui ont eu la plus grande activité parmi toutes les juridictions de la Bretagne aux cinq départements, dont les frontières épousent celles du ressort de la cour d’appel de Rennes. Cette réflexion est d’autant plus légitime qu’elle nous permet de dresser un bilan définitif de l’épuration judiciaire à l’aune du genre au sein de la Bretagne historique et de savoir si la Loire-Inférieure est un département breton comme un autre dans le rapport des femmes à la justice épuratoire. Pour répondre à ce questionnement, l’article est organisé autour de trois grands axes. Il replace tout d’abord les femmes dans l’ensemble du contentieux judiciaire de l’épuration, avant d’esquisser le portrait de groupe des femmes jugées et de terminer par l’étude des faits reprochés et des sanctions infligées.
Saragosse, ville de l’enfermement dans El loco por fuerza
Authors: Aslot Kassandre
Published: July 2020

La comedia El loco por fuerza, attribuée à Lope de Vega, se prête à une étude de la représentation des notions de liberté et d'entrave à Saragosse, à une période où cette problématique était centrale. En effet, les révoltes qui avaient secoué la ville en 1591 avaient eu pour origine la défense des libertés du royaume, face au pouvoir grandissant du roi. L'écho à ces événements dans l'oeuvre permet d'en offrir une vision anti-aragonaise, étendue à la ville elle-même, loin de la vision héroïque donnée par les révoltés. Saragosse apparaît ainsi comme une ville prison, gouvernée par un magistrat, chez qui l’appellation de Justicia s’avère paradoxale dès lors qu’il agit en tyran. Saragosse devient alors un lieu d’inversion, de non-droit. Cette vision de l'Aragon et de ses libertés participe au développement d'une stratégie d'exaltation monarchique destinée à s'attirer les faveurs du roi.

Authors: Zhao Liang , Huang Qian , Sun Hua Yin , Li Xiang
Published: July 2020

Partially stabilized zirconia (PSZ) materials were fabricated using 4 wt% CaO, 3 wt% MgO, and 5.4 wt% Y2O3 as stabilizing agents together with monoclinic zirconia powder. The physical properties, phase compositions, and microstructures of the Ca-PSZ, Mg-PSZ, and Y-PSZ samples were investigated by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and energy spectrum analysis. A crucible method was used to explore the relationship between the stabilizing agent and erosion resistance to alkaline steel slag. The results revealed that the zirconia materials stabilized by different stabilizing agents showed obvious differences in their bulk densities, apparent porosities, microstructures, and erosion resistances to alkaline steel slag. The structure of Y-PSZ showed highest density, containing a small number of uniformly distributed pores. In terms of Mg-PSZ, the intergranular bonding in its structure was observed to not be close, and the sample contained some cracks, but no pores. A large number of intragranular pores and a small number of overall pores was observed in Ca-PSZ, resulting in this material having the lowest bulk density. The pores and cracks provide the path to penetrate and diffuse for alkaline steel slag, which weakens the corrosion resistance of PSZ materials. The phase composition of the affected layers in all of the samples after corrosion was almost completely transformed from monoclinic phase to cubic phase, and the phase transition of both the original and transition layers was not obvious due to the formation of a slag film. Y-PSZ did not react with components of the steel slag such as SiO2 and Al2O3, showing the best corrosion resistance to alkaline steel slag.

The adsorption and desorption properties of the contaminants, which tested by the six kinds of the macroporous resins in the textile and dyeing, have been compared. According to the results, D3520 resin holds the highest adsorption and desorption capacity. (15.6mg/g for adsorption capacity, 15.1mg/g for desorption capacity). The effects of the pH value, initial concentration of , temperature and the flow rate on removal of by D3520 macroporous resin have been tested. The results showed that the removal of increased with the pH value and initial concentration of COD increasing and the data of its adsorption fitted the Langmuir isotherm best. Besides, 92.49% could be removed after 8h of adsorption at 25 °C. Dynamic adsorption and desorption experiments have been carried out on the packed column of D3520 resins as a reference for engineering applications, the results showed that the D3520 resin could still reach 79.5% removal rate after adsorptions-regeneration for five times.

Recently, the high Al-added light weight steels are particularly attractive for automotive applications because of their excellent mechanical properties and weight reduction. In this study, the microstructure characteristics and hardness in the resistance spot welding of high Al-added light weight steels were investigated. A Al-added 780MPa steel and Al-added 980MPa steel were used in the present study. For Al-added 780MPa steel the hardness in the weld nugget was higher than that of the base metal, and reduced hardness between the weld nugget and base metal is due to the presence of soft δ-ferrite. For Al-added 980MPa steel the hardness in the welt nugget was lower than that of the base metal due to grain growth.

Published: July 2020

Cobalt-free Li-rich Mn-based cathode materials are considered to be the next generation of Li-ion batteries due to low cost, high discharge capacities and high safety feature. However, there are still several serious issues that need to be solved urgently, such as low initial coulombic efficiency, low rate capability, poor cycling performance and voltage fading. Na doping or substitution is introduced to improve the electrochemical performance of Li1.2Mn0.6Ni0.2O2 cathode material, which is synthesized by sol-gel method. The effect of Na doping or substitution on the morphological, structural and electrochemical properties was systematically studied and analyzed by scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-Ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), cell test system and electrochemical workstation. These results illustrate that lattice layer spacing is enlarged by Na doping or substitution, which is beneficial for the diffusion of Li-ion, and the voltage fading is successfully suppressed. The best electrochemical properties were obtained when Na doping, which is attributed to the stronger structural stability and better reversibility of Li+ during the initial charge and discharge process.

Authors: Gao Min
Published: July 2020

The jute and polypropylene fiber (PP) were formed into jute/PP composite by carding, netting and needling. Using surface dusting process, β-CD and ammonium phosphate (APP) were combined and hot pressed to form a flame-retardant layer on the surface of jute/PP composite. The results show that the thermal compression film formation on the surface of jute/PP composite after β-CD and APP compounding can significantly improve the flame retardancy and thermal stability of the jute/PP composite. When the mass ratio of β-CD to APP is 1:2 and keeping the 20wt% total content of the flame retardants, the jute/PP composite becomes extinguished after 58s combustion. The limiting oxygen index (LOI) value is 26.6%, which reaches the third fire resistance according to Japan's JISD 1201-77 standard. The heat release rate and effective combustion calorific show the lowest value and the carbon residual at 700°C is increased by 11. 68%.
