Fiber additive will induce the rheological behavior of suspension, resulting in variation in velocity profile and fiber orientation especially for the non-dilute case. Based on the fluid-solid coupling dynamics simulation, it shows that the fiber orientation aligns along the streamline more and more quickly in the central turbulent region as the fiber concentration increases, especially contract ratio Cx > 4. However, fibers tend to maintain the original uniform orientation and are rarely affected by the contract ratio in the boundary layer. The fibers orientation in the near semi-dilute phase is lower than that in the dilute phase near the outlet, which may be the result of the hydrodynamic contact lubrication between fibers. The orientation distribution and concentration of the fibers change the viscous flow mechanism of the suspension microscopically, which makes a velocity profile vary with the phase concentration. The velocity profile of the approaching semi-dilute phase sublayer is higher than that of the dilute and semi-dilute phases on the central streamline and in the viscous bottom layer, showing weak drag reduction while the situation is opposite on the logarithmic layer of the boundary layer. The relevant research can provide a process strategy for fiber orientation optimization and rheological control in the industrial applications of suspension.

Abstract Laccases are a class of multi-copper oxidases with important industrial values. A thermotolerant laccase produced by a basidiomycete fungal strain Cerrena unicolor CGMCC 5.1011 was studied. With glycerin and peptone as the carbon and nitrogen sources, respectively, a maximal laccase activity of 121.7 U/mL was attained after cultivation in the shaking flask for 15 days. Transcriptomics analysis revealed an expressed laccase gene family of 12 members in C. unicolor strain CGMCC 5.1011, and the gene and cDNA sequences were cloned. A glycosylated laccase was purified from the fermentation broth of Cerrena unicolor CGMCC 5.1011 and corresponded to Lac2 based on MALDI-TOF MS/MS identification. Lac2 was stable at pH 5.0 and above, and was resistant to organic solvents. Lac2 displayed remarkable thermostability, with half-life time of 1.67 h at 70 ºC. Consistently, Lac2 was able to completely decolorize malachite green (MG) at high temperatures, whereas Lac7 from Cerrena sp. HYB07 resulted in accumulation of colored MG transformation intermediates. Molecular dynamics simulation of Lac2 was conducted, and possible mechanisms underlying Lac2 thermostability were discussed. The robustness of C. unicolor CGMCC 5.1011 laccase would not only be useful for industrial applications, but also provide a template for future work to develop thermostable laccases.

Fiber Orientation Distribution

The study for strength calculation of one way fiber-reinforced composites and the study measuring precisely fiber orientation distribution were presented. However, because the DB that can predict mechanical properties of composite material and fiber orientation distribution by the fiber content ratio was not constructed, we need the systematic study for that. Therefore, in this study, we investigated what effect the fiber content ratio and fiber orientation distribution have on the strength of composite sheet after making fiber reinforced polymeric composite sheet by changing fiber orientation distribution with the fiber content ratio. The result of this study will become a guide to design data of the most suitable parts design or fiber reinforced polymeric composite sheet that uses the fiber reinforced polymeric composite sheet in industry spot, because it was conducted in terms of developing products. We studied the effect the fiber orientation distribution has on tensile strength of fiber reinforced polymeric composite material and achieved this results below. We can say that the increasing range of the value of fiber reinforced polymeric composite’s tensile strength in the direction of fiber orientation is getting wider as the fiber content ratio increases. It shows that the value of fiber reinforced polymeric composite’s tensile strength in the direction of fiber orientation 90° is similar with the value of polypropylene’s intensity when fiber orientation function is J= 0.7, regardless of the fiber content ratio. Tensile strength of fiber reinforced polymeric composite is affected by the fiber orientation distribution more than by the fiber content ratio.

Abstract As an interim solution to the problem of the turbulent boundary layer in an adverse pressure gradient, a super-position method of analysis has been developed. In this method, the velocity profile is considered to be the result of two effects: the wall shear stress and the pressure recovery. These are superimposed, yielding an expression for the velocity profiles which approximate measured distributions. The theory also leads to a more reasonable expression for the wall shear-stress coefficient.

The present study shows the impacts of Williamson fluid with magnetohydrodynamics flow containing gyrotactic microorganisms under the variable fluid property past permeable stretching sheet. Variable Prandtl number, mass Schmidt number, and gyrotactic microorganisms Schmidt number were all considered. The momentum, energy, mass, and microorganism equations’ governing PDEs are converted into nonlinear coupled ODEs and numerically solved with the bvp4c solver using suitable transformations. The main outcome of this study is that Williamson fluid parameter constantly decreases in velocity profile, however reverse effects can be shown in temperature profile. Also, M parameter and Kp parameter enhance the heat transfer rate, concentration rate and microorganisms boundary layer thickness but declines in momentum boundary layer thickness and velocity profile. The aim of this research is to see how velocity slide, temperature jump, concentration slip, and microorganism slip affect MHD Williamson fluid flow with gyrotactic microorganisms over a leaky surface embedded in spongy medium, with non-linear radiation and non-linear chemical reaction.
