    摘要: Molten metal is fed to a caster in a continuous casting operation through a distributor that divides the molten metal into four streams flowing in circulating patterns from the central axis of the caster. Each stream sweeps first along the longer side wall of the caster toward the corner, then back along the shorter side wall toward the center line. The result is a higher degree of fragmentation of metal crystals as they form, and a better distribution of the fragments across the caster cross section, as well as a more even temperature distribution.

    摘要: A robot fork calibration method and system is provided. At least three non-linear arranged lower sensors are provided on a bottom surface of the fork to detect distances to a fixed detection point. The fixed detection point and a horizontal plane of the detection point define a reference coordinate system. Spatial coordinates of the lower sensors in the reference coordinate system are calculated and a plane equation as well as a tilted angle of the fork are obtained according to the spatial coordinates. Therefore, the height of the fork can be calibrated according to the Z axis coordinates of the lower sensors and the levelness of the fork can be calibrated according to the tilted angle.

    摘要: Oxygen toxicity is one of the major risk factors in the development of the chronic lung disease or bronchopulmonary dysplasia in premature infants. Using proteomic analysis, we discovered mitochondrial aldehyde dehydrogenase (mtALDH or ALDH2) was down-regulated in neonatal rat lung after hyperoxic exposure. To study the role of mtALDH in hyperoxic lung injury, we overexpressed mtALDH in human lung epithelial cells (A549) and found that mtALDH significantly reduced hyperoxia-induced cell death. Compared to control cells (Neo-A549), the necrotic cell death in mtALDH overexpressing cells (mtALDH-A549) decreased from 25.3% to 6.5%, 50.5% to 9.1% and 52.4% to 15.06% after 24-, 48- and 72-hour hyperoxic exposure, respectively. The levels of intracellular and mitochondria-derived reactive oxygen species (ROS) in mtALDH-A549 cells after hyperoxic exposure were significantly lowered compared to Neo-A549 cells. mtALDH overexpression significantly stimulated extracellular signal regulated kinase (ERK) phosphorylation under normoxic and hyperoxic conditions. Inhibition of ERK phosphorylation partially eliminated the protective effect of mtALDH in hyperoxia-induced cell death, suggesting ERK activation by mtALDH conferred cellular resistance to hyperoxia. mtALDH overexpression augmented Akt phosphorylation and maintained the total Akt level in mtALDH-A549 cells under normoxic and hyperoxic conditions. Inhibition of PI3K activation by LY294002 in mtALDH-A549 cells significantly increased necrotic cell death after hyperoxic exposure, indicating that PI3K/Akt activation by mtALDH played an important role in cell survival after hyperoxia. Taken together, these data demonstrate that mtALDH overexpression attenuates hyperoxia-induced cell death in lung epithelial cells through reduction of ROS, activation of ERK/MAPK and PI3K/Akt cell survival signaling pathways.

    摘要翻译: 氧气毒性是早产儿慢性肺部疾病或支气管肺发育不良发展的主要危险因素之一。 使用蛋白质组学分析,我们发现线粒体醛脱氢酶(mtALDH或ALDH2)在高氧暴露后新生大鼠肺中下调。 为了研究mtALDH在高氧性肺损伤中的作用,我们在人肺上皮细胞(A549)中过表达mtALDH,发现mtALDH显着降低高氧诱导的细胞死亡。 与对照细胞(Neo-A549)相比,mtALDH过表达细胞(mtALDH-A549)的坏死细胞死亡率分别为24.3%,48%和72%,从25.3%降至6.5%,50.5%降至9.1%,52.4%降至15.06% - 低氧暴露。 与新生A549细胞相比,高氧暴露后mtALDH-A549细胞中细胞内和线粒体衍生的活性氧(ROS)水平显着降低。 在常氧和高氧条件下,mtALDH过表达显着刺激细胞外信号调节激酶(ERK)磷酸化。 抑制ERK磷酸化部分消除了mtALDH在高氧诱导的细胞死亡中的保护作用,表明通过mtALDH的ERK活化赋予细胞对高氧的抗性。 mtALDH过表达增强Akt磷酸化,并维持在常氧和高氧条件下mtALDH-A549细胞中的总Akt水平。 在mtALDH-A549细胞中LY294002对PI3K活化的抑制作用在高氧暴露后显着增加坏死细胞死亡,说明mtALDH的PI3K / Akt活化在高氧后细胞存活中起重要作用。 总之,这些数据表明,mtALDH过表达通过减少ROS,激活ERK / MAPK和PI3K / Akt细胞存活信号通路来减轻肺上皮细胞中的高氧诱导的细胞死亡。

    摘要: A planar 2×2 switch is provided for controllably coupling first and second input channels to first and second output channels. The switch includes a first reflector that is movable between a first position and a second position. When the first reflector is in its second position, it reflects light from the first input channel to the second output channel and reflects light from the second input channel to the first output channel. When the first reflection is in its first position, it does not affect the optical beams in the switch. Instead, these beams are reflected by a second reflector which has two reflective surfaces. The second reflector reflects light from the first input channel to the first output channel and reflects light from the second input channel to the second output channel. Switches having a larger number of input and output channels are also provided.

    摘要: A system and method are proposed for identifying multimedia files in a first database which are related to a textual term specified by a user. The textual term is used to search a second database of multimedia files, each of which is associated with a portion of text. The “second database” is usually composed of files from the databases of a very large number of servers connected via the internet. The multimedia files identified in the search are ones for which the corresponding associated text is relevant to the textual term. The identified multimedia files are used to generate a classifier engine. The classifier engine is then applied to the first database of multimedia files, thereby retrieving multimedia files in the first database which are relevant to the textual term. The user can optionally specify whether the retrieved multimedia files are relevant or not, and this permits a feedback process to improve the classifier engine.

    摘要: A tundish impact pad for use in the continuous casting of molten metal is described that includes a base plate having an upper impact surface surrounded, at least in part, by a sidewall defining passageways. The impact pad is adapted to receive and deflect an incoming stream of molten metal, and permit outflow of the deflected stream through the passageways and the open top surface of the pad. Vaulted-stepped features surrounding the passageways and/or weir-like walls assist in directing the outflow. The division and distribution of the outflow facilitates the development of plug flow in the molten metal between the impact pad and the tundish outlet.
