Strength And Plasticity

The mechanical response and failure of the specimens of magnesium alloy AZ61 with different heating rates (HR) and loading rates (LR) were investigated by a Gleeble-1500 thermal-mechanical material testing system. It was found that heating rate has markedly effect on the strength and plasticity of the specimens. The higher the heating rate is, the lower the strength and the smaller of the plasticity of the specimens will be. There is the relatively small effect of the loading rates on the strength and plasticity of the specimens. The metallographs of the failed specimens were also observed. It shows that there are many microvoids in the specimens near the fracture sections. These microvoids may come from the local thermal and stress inconsistency under high heating rate and loading rates and degrade the strength and plasticity of the specimens.

This study was performed to evaluate the efficiency of tapioca processing wastewater treatment using aerobic biofilter with variety of biofilter media: coir, coal, PVC plastic and Bio - Ball BB15 plastic. Research results in the lab demonstrated all four aerobic biofilter models processed can treated completely N and COD which COD reached 90-98% and N reached 61-92%, respectively, at the organic loading rates in range of 0.5, 1, 1.5 and 2 kgCOD/m3.day. The results identified coir filter was the best in four researched materials with removal COD and specific substract utilization rate can reach 98%, and 0.6 kg COD/kgVSS.day. Research results open the new prospects for the application of the cheap materials, available for wastewater treatment.

AbstractRecent epidemiological analyses in fencing have shown that injuries and pain linked specifically to fencing training/competition were evident in 92.8% of fencers. Specifically the prevalence of Achilles tendon pathology has increased substantially in recent years, and males have been identified as being at greater risk of Achilles tendon injury compared to their female counterparts. This study aimed to examine gender differences in Achilles tendon loading during the fencing lunge.Achilles tendon load was obtained from eight male and eight female club level epee fencers using a 3D motion capture system and force platform information as they completed simulated lunges. Independent t-tests were performed on the data to determine whether differences existed.The results show that males were associated with significantly greater Achilles tendon loading rates in comparison to females.This suggests that male fencers may be at greater risk from Achilles tendon pathology as a function of fencing training/ competition.

Background: Although DC Bead has been useful in treatment of multiple and large hepatocellular carcinoma, loading time of doxorubicin into the DC Bead takes a long time of 30-120 minutes. Epirubicin is also used as an antitumor agent together with DC Bead, but its loading efficiency was not sufficiently elucidated. Methods: To shorten loading time of epirubicin into DC Bead (100-300µm, 300-500µm, 500-700µm), we examined the following three methods after mixing the drug: (a) let stand in room temperature, (b) agitated for 30 seconds with Vortex mixer, and (c) sonicated for 30 seconds with ultrasonic cleaner. After loading of epirubicin by each method, supernatant concentration for epirubicin was assayed at 5, 10, 30, 60, and 120 minutes. Results: Epirubicin loading rates for small bead (100-300µm) at 5 minutes were 82.9 % in group a, 93.8% in group b, and 79.9 % in group c. Similarly, medium bead (300-500µm), 40.1% in group a, 65.7% in group b and 45.5% in group c, respectively. In large-sized bead (500-700µm), loaded rates of epirubicin were 38.8% in group a, 59.0% in group b and 48.0% in group c. Agitation of mixture of epirubicin and DC Bead with Vortex mixer significantly shortened the loading time, but sonication did not affect the time required. Microscopic examination did not lead to any morphological change of microspheres in all the methods. Conclusions: Short time of agitation with Vortex mixer reduced the necessary time for loading of epirubicin in every standard of DC Bead.

Expected Increase

A major problem in anaerobic waste-water treatment results from difficulties with the mixing of sludge, when it has settled after periods of standstill. A new method for reactivating those plants is discussed in this paper. In a technical anaerobic plant (volume 9600 m3) a control problem led to a breakdown of the process, connected with a drastic increase of the reactor COD. The load to the reactor was temporarily stopped to remove the inhibiting conditions. Restart with low loading rates and addition of new sludge did not lead to the expected increase in performance. The main problem was to suspend the sludge layer, which was settled on the bottom of the reactor. For activating the sludge layer feed “shots” were added up to three times per day. These shots consisted of volume streams of high loaded waste-water, up to five times bigger than the normal stream at that time and lasting for 1 h. The shots provided the sludge layer much better with substrate and caused biogas formation which itself led to a suspension of bacterial flocs. The same strategy was applied again successfully for reactivating a second anaerobic 10,000 m3 reactor.
