The reactivity index of weight loss (RI) and tumbling strength after the reaction (I10600) of manufacturing coke were first tested at a temperature series of 1100, 1200, and 1300 °C under CO2 atmosphere with different compositions and duration times to study the effects of temperature, time, and gas composition on coke hot strength. Then the RI/I10600, carbon structure, and optical texture of the cokes prepared from different single coals were mainly studied after a solution reaction with CO2 under a high temperature of 1300 °C and a standard temperature of 1100 °C. It was found that temperature greatly affects the RI/I10600 of coke, especially at high temperatures up to 1300 °C. Compared with standard tests under 1100 °C, the changes of RI/I10600 for different cokes are very different at 1300 °C, and the changes are greatly related to coke optical texture. Under a high temperature in the testing method, the tumbling strength of cokes with more isotropy increased, whereas it decreased for those with less isotropy. This simple method of using high temperature could yield the same results when compared with complicated simulated blast furnace conditions.

High-quality boron nitride nanotubes were synthesized by annealing porous precursor in flowing NH3gas at 1150°C. The porous precursor B18Ca2(MgO)9was produced by self-propagation high-temperature synthesis (SHS) method using Mg, B2O3, and CaB6as the starting materials, which played an important role in synthesis of BN nanotubes in large quantities. Samples were characterized by SEM, TEM, EDX, HRTEM, X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), Raman, and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. The as-synthesized BN nanotubes have an average diameter of about 150 nm with a wall/diameter ratio of 2/3. Mean length of the BN nanotubes was more than 10 μm. The effects of temperature, time, and the possible mechanism of the growth of the BN nanotubes were also discussed.

<abstract> <p>Tide-embankment walls protecting coastal roads frequently contain numerous windows so that pedestrians and drivers can view the scenery without experiencing reduced sunlight. Tide-embankment windows must withstand extreme climatic conditions. However, the effects of temperature extremes on acrylic boards have rarely been studied. This paper proposes a simple method for constructing a high-temperature environment and a method for measuring strain on an acrylic plate. The deformation and strain of a 40-mm-thick acrylic tide-embankment window were determined experimentally and numerically in this study in a high-temperature environment, obtaining similar results; additionally, the numerical method was subsequently used to simulate a low-temperature environment. Because thermal conductivity was low, the internal temperature of the thick acrylic board did not immediately change with the temperature of the surface, and thermal expansion and contraction of the board were restrained. Temperature-induced deformation effects were low across the entire range of temperatures and heating rates recorded in coastal Japan.</p> </abstract>

For the past decade, the Osterberg testing method (O-cell test) has been proved advantageous over the conventional pile load testing method in many aspects. However, because the O-cell test uses a loading mechanism entirely different from that of the conventional pile loading testing method, many investigators and practicing engineers have been concerned that the O-cell test would give inaccurate results, especially about the pile head settlement behavior. Therefore, a bidirectional load test using the Osterberg method and the conventional top-down load test were executed on 1.5-m diameter cast-in-place concrete piles at the same time and site. Strain gauges were placed on the piles. The two tests gave similar load transfer curves at various depth of piles. However, the top-down equivalent curve constructed from the bidirectional load test results predicted the pile head settlement under the pile design load to be approximately one half of that predicted by the conventional top-down load test. To improve the prediction accuracy of the top-down equivalent curve, a simple method that accounts for the pile compression was proposed. It was also shown that the strain gauge measurement data from the bidirectional load test could reproduce almost the same top-down curve.

AbstractHeatwaves have increased in intensity, duration and frequency over the last decades due to climate change. Intertidal species, living in a highly variable environment, are likely to be exposed to such heatwaves since they can be emerged for more than 6 h during a tidal cycle. Little is known, however, on how temperature affects species traits (e.g. locomotion and behaviour) of slow-moving organisms such as benthic foraminifera (single-celled protists), which abound in marine sediments. Here, we examine how temperature influences motion-behaviour and metabolic traits of the dominant temperate foraminifera Haynesina germanica by exposing individuals to usual (6, 12, 18, 24, 30 °C) and extreme (high; i.e. 32, 34, 36 °C) temperature regimes. Our results show that individuals reduced their activity by up to 80% under high temperature regimes whereas they remained active under the temperatures they usually experience in the field. When exposed to a hyper-thermic stress (i.e. 36 °C), all individuals remained burrowed and the photosynthetic activity of their sequestered chloroplasts significantly decreased. Recovery experiments subsequently revealed that individuals initially exposed to a high thermal regime partially recovered when the hyper-thermic stress ceased. H. germanica contribution to surface sediment reworking substantially diminished from 10 mm3 indiv−1 day−1 (usual temperature) to 0 mm3 indiv−1 day−1 when individuals were exposed to high temperature regimes (i.e. above 32 °C). Given their role in sediment reworking and organic matter remineralisation, our results suggest that heatwaves may have profound long-lasting effects on the functioning of intertidal muddy ecosystems and some key biogeochemical cycles.

Abstract The bulk modulus represents a material's resistance to volume change when subjected to pressure loading. Determination of bulk modulus is important for evaluation of applications where compression is involved. Most methods proposed for this purpose are complicated and costly. A simple method is to compress an elastomer button, fully confined in a metal fixture, on a tensile/compression machine. The reliability of this method is studied and a data-treatment technique is proposed to improve the accuracy. It shows that the testing method, with the new analysis technique recommended, is efficient and can be used as a routine test.
