Synthesis, working mechanism, and effectiveness of a novel corrosion‐inhibiting polycarboxylate superplasticizer for concrete
Authors: Xu Qingtao , Gao Heping , Zeng Jun , Chen Cheng , Zhou Wei , Wang Suqin , Tian Xingxing , Peng Yinxian 
Published: June 2016

ABSTRACTIn this work, a novel corrosion‐inhibiting polycarboxylate superplasticizer for concrete was synthesized through two‐step esterification reaction and one‐step polymerization. Firstly, arginine‐polyethylene glycol monoester was synthesized by p‐toluenesulphonic acid‐catalyzed esterification reaction of one hydroxyl of polyethylene glycol and carboxylic of arginine containing the main functional group of corrosion‐inhibiting polycarboxylate superplasticizer. Secondly, under the condition of hydroquinone as a polymerization inhibitor, polycarboxylate macromonomer was also synthesized by p‐toluenesulphonic acid‐catalyzed esterification reaction of another hydroxyl of as‐prepared monoester and carboxylic of methyl acrylic acid (96 % esterification rate). Finally, a corrosion‐inhibiting polycarboxylate superplasticizer for concrete was synthesized by ammonium peroxydisulphat‐initiated polymerization, polycarboxylate macromonomer, methyl acrylic acid, and sodium methyl acrylic acid. The structures of monoester, macromonomer, and superplasticizer were characterized by FTIR. Moreover, the fluidity of cement paste, the water reduction, and the compressive strength ratio of as‐prepared polycarboxylate macromonomer (0.5 %) as a corrosion‐inhibiting superplasticizer were more than 290 mm, 25 %, and 130 % respectively.
MGNPE‐LICA algorithm for fault diagnosis of batch process
Authors: Xiaoqiang Zhao , Tao Wang , Yongyong Hui 
Published: June 2016

AbstractBatch production process data usually contains mixture ingredients of the Gaussian and non‐Gaussian distribution. Traditional monitoring methods require data to meet the requirements of Gaussian distribution and do not take into account the global and local features for feature extraction. An ICA algorithm can deal with process diagnosis of non‐Gaussian distribution but cannot deal with process diagnosis of Gaussian distribution. So a multi‐way global neighbourhood preserving embedding, local independent component analysis (MGNPE‐LICA) algorithm, is proposed in this paper. Firstly, raw data is divided into Gaussian and non‐Gaussian spaces by the D‐test. For the Gaussian space, the MGNPE algorithm is used to fully extract local structural features and global structural features of data. For the non‐Gaussian space, the MLICA algorithm is used to solve non‐Gaussian problems and at the same time reserve global and local information of data. Then the monitoring index of two spaces synthesizes a joint monitoring indicator to monitor the process. The contribution plot method is used to diagnose fault variables after detecting faults. The simulation results of a penicillin fermentation process verified the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.
Anatomical characterization of the cannabinoid CB1 receptor in cell‐type–specific mutant mouse rescue models

Published: June 2016

ABSTRACTType 1 cannabinoid (CB1) receptors are widely distributed in the brain. Their physiological roles depend on their distribution pattern, which differs remarkably among cell types. Hence, subcellular compartments with little but functionally relevant CB1 receptors can be overlooked, fostering an incomplete mapping. To overcome this, knockin mice with cell‐type–specific rescue of CB1 receptors have emerged as excellent tools for investigating CB1 receptors’ cell‐type–specific localization and sufficient functional role with no bias. However, to know whether these rescue mice maintain endogenous CB1 receptor expression level, detailed anatomical studies are necessary. The subcellular distribution of hippocampal CB1 receptors of rescue mice that express the gene exclusively in dorsal telencephalic glutamatergic neurons (Glu‐CB1‐RS) or GABAergic neurons (GABA‐CB1‐RS) was studied by immunoelectron microscopy. Results were compared with conditional CB1 receptor knockout lines. As expected, CB1 immunoparticles appeared at presynaptic plasmalemma, making asymmetric and symmetric synapses. In the hippocampal CA1 stratum radiatum, the values of the CB1 receptor‐immunopositive excitatory and inhibitory synapses were Glu‐CB1‐RS, 21.89% (glutamatergic terminals); 2.38% (GABAergic terminals); GABA‐CB1‐RS, 1.92% (glutamatergic terminals); 77.92% (GABAergic terminals). The proportion of CB1 receptor‐immunopositive excitatory and inhibitory synapses in the inner one‐third of the dentate molecular layer was Glu‐CB1‐RS, 53.19% (glutamatergic terminals); 2.30% (GABAergic terminals); GABA‐CB1‐RS, 3.19% (glutamatergic terminals); 85.07% (GABAergic terminals). Taken together, Glu‐CB1‐RS and GABA‐CB1‐RS mice show the usual CB1 receptor distribution and expression in hippocampal cell types with specific rescue of the receptor, thus being ideal for in‐depth anatomical and functional investigations of the endocannabinoid system.

A duplex current‐reused CMOS LNA with complementary derivative superposition technique
Authors: Dai Ruofan , Zheng Yunlong , He Jun , Kong Weiran , Zou Shichang 
Published: June 2016

SummaryA duplex current‐reused complementary metal–oxide–semiconductor low‐noise amplifier (LNA) is proposed for 2.5‐GHz application. The duplex current‐reused topology with equivalent three common‐source gain stages cascaded is utilized to fulfil the low‐power consumption and high gain simultaneously. The complementary derivative superposition linearization technique with bulk‐bias control is employed to improve the linearity performance with large‐signal swing and to extend the auxiliary transistors bias‐control range. The proposed LNA is fabricated in a 0.18‐um 1P5M complementary metal–oxide–semiconductor process and consumes a 3.13‐mA quiescent current from a 1.5 V voltage supply. The measurement results show that the proposed LNA achieves power gain of 28.1 dB, noise figure of 1.64 dB, input P1dB and IIP3 of −19.6 dBm and 3.2 dBm, respectively, while the input and output return loss is 19.2 dB and 18.4 dB.

Excitation of Highly Charged Ions in Plasma by Ultrashort Electromagnetic Pulses
Authors: Astapenko V. A. , Sakhno S. V. , Lisitsa V. S. 
Published: June 2016

AbstractExcitation of highly charged ions in plasmas under the action of ultrashort electromagnetic pulses is investigated theoretically in the frame of perturbation theory. The study is based on analytical expression for probability of bound‐bound transition which is derived for Gaussian pulse and Doppler broadening of spectral line shape of the transition. Electronic transitions from the ground state of hydrogen‐like ions are considered with account for fine splitting of upper energy levels. The main attention is paid to the dependence of the excitation probability on pulse duration for various ion charges and carrier frequencies of the pulse. The results obtained are of interest for plasma diagnostics based on ion excitation from ground state by ultrashort pulses. (© 2016 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
Transport and Energy Deposition of hot Electrons through the Shock Ignition pre Compressed Target
Authors: Rezaei S. , Farahbod A. H. , Jafari M. J. 
Published: June 2016

AbstractShock ignition as an alternative scheme of the laser fusion has the potential of achieving efficient implosion. However, hot electrons produced in result of ignitor‐corona interaction may penetrate deep into the fuel making the compression less effective. Transport and energy deposition of hot electron beam into the dense pre compressed of HiPER target by means of Monte Carlo approach are discussed considering the influence of real density and electron beam characteristics. The target parameters before igniting the hot spot have been extracted from a fluid code and used as the initial profile for Monte Carlo simulations. In comparison with simplified step like density profile, electrons penetrate slightly deeper in the case of real shaped density profile. In addition, deposition zone of a broad spectrum electron beam is wider while, monoenergetic electrons depose their energy locally resulting more maximum energy deposition value.
