The results about fractional derivative multivariable grey models are very few at present. In this paper, a multivariable Caputo fractional derivative grey model with convolution integral CFGMC(q, N) is proposed. First, the Caputo fractional difference is used to discretize the model, and the least square method is used to solve the parameters. The orders of accumulations and differential equations are determined by using particle swarm optimization(PSO). Then, the analytical solution of the model is obtained by using the Laplace transform, and the convergence and divergence of series in analytical solutions are also discussed. Finally, the CFGMC(q, N) model is used to predict the municipal solid waste(MSW). Compared with other competition models, the model has the best prediction effect. This study enriches the model form of the multivariable grey model, expands the scope of application, and provides a new idea for the development of fractional derivative grey model.展开更多

Based on CFD and rigid dynamic mesh techniques,a numerical method is developed to calculate the longitudinal and longitudinal-lateral coupling forces and moments with small amplitude sinusoidal pitch oscillation, and the corresponding dynamic derivatives of two fragment-structure-damaged and two continuous-rod-damaged models modified from the SACCON UAV. The results indicate that, at the reference point set in this paper, additional positive damping is generated in fragment-damaged configurations;thus, the absolute values of the negative pitch dynamic derivative increase. The missing wingtip induces negative pitch damping on the aircraft and decreases the value of the pitch dynamic derivative. The missing middle wing causes a noticeable increase in the absolute value of the pitch dynamic derivative;the missing parts on the right wing cause the aircraft to roll to the right side in the dynamic process, and the pitch-roll coupling cross dynamic derivatives are positive. Moreover, the values of these derivatives increase as the damaged area on the right wing increases, and an optimal case with the smallest cross dynamic derivative can be found to help improve the survivability of damaged aircraft.展开更多
Two novel ligands named 4-styrylpyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid (4-SPDA) and 4-(4-(2-(2, 6-dicarboxypyridin-4-yl)- vinyl)styryl)pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid(DSPDA) and their complexes with Tb(Ⅲ) were synthesized and...Two novel ligands named 4-styrylpyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid (4-SPDA) and 4-(4-(2-(2, 6-dicarboxypyridin-4-yl)- vinyl)styryl)pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid(DSPDA) and their complexes with Tb(Ⅲ) were synthesized and characterized by infrared spectrometry, 1H nuclear magnetic resonance, elemental analysis and gas chromatograph-mass spectrometry. The ligand synthetic route was optimized. The fluorescence properties of the complex in solid state, in different kind of solvents and in solutions with different pH values were investigated in detail. The results show that the yields of DSPDA and 4-SPDA reach over 78% by Wittig-Horner reaction and other eight pyridine-2, 6-dicarboxylic acid derivatives with different substituents on pyridine ring, and their complexes with Tb(Ⅲ) are also obtained. The fluorescence intensities of the complexes with electron-donating groups are more intense than those of the complexes with electron-withdrawing groups on pyridine ring; fluorescence intensities of the complexes are the strongest in neutral solution (pH=7), and the less the dipole moment of solvent molecule is, the stronger the fluorescence intensity is. It is found that the two ligands (4-APDA and DSPDA) are the good sensitizers for Tb(Ⅲ) ion.展开更多

文摘OBJECTIVE To identify the specific targets of a novel derivative of Danshensu ADTM as the protein disulfide isomerase(PDI)family proteins including ERp57.To further investigate the underlying mechanism of ADTM to modulate ERp57 to regulate platelet function with direct interaction withαⅡbβ3 integrin.METHODS To isolate the protein targets that bound to ADTM,a biotin-conjugated ADTM analogue(BAA)was designed and synthesized.BAA(300μmol·L-1)was incubated with rat blood platelet lysates and the BAA-protein complexes were pulled down with NeutrAvidin-agarose followed by protein profiling using LC-MS/MS.To determine platelet aggregation in vitro,rabbit platelets were incubated with the indicated concentrations of compounds and aggregation was induced by ADP(10μmol·L-1)or AA(200μmol·L-1)and measured using a platelet aggregometer.To determine platelet aggregation-induced by ADP in rat in vivo,ADTM(5-20mg·kg-1)in comparison with DSS(10mg·kg-1)and clopidogrel(18mg·kg-1)were administered daily by i.v.injection for 5d,respectively.To determine the action of ADTM on the ERp57/αⅡbβ3 interaction,it was examined by immunoprecipitation with anti-αⅡbβ3antibody,followed by detection of ERp57 immunoreactivity using immunoblotting.RESULTS BAA could bind to various proteins involved in platelet function.In particular,platelet aggregation-associated proteins were identified with>95% protein identification probability including ERp72,ERp57ERp5 and PDI,which are members of the protein disulfide isomerase(PDI)family related to platelet function and redox homeostasis.ADTM exhibited potent inhibition on the redox activity of ERp57 in a concentration-dependent manner(IC50=100 300μmol·L-1).In in vitro studies,ADTM exhibited concentration-dependent inhibition on ADP-induced and AA-induced platelet aggregation with comparable effects to aspirin and clopidogrel.In vivo study showed that ADP-induced platelet aggregation was significantly compromised(>40%reduction)in rats treated with ADTM(20mg·kg-1).Similarly,ADTM also exhibited significant anti-thrombotic effect in vivo as shown in the ferric chloride(FeCl3)-induced venous thrombosis.Immunoprecipitation with anti-αⅡbβ3antibody,followed by detection of ERp57 immunoreactivity using immunoblotting showed that ADTM disrupted the interaction of ERp57 with αⅡ bβ3.CONCLUSION These results demonstrated that ADTM exhibited broad-spectrum anti-platelet activities and ERp57 is a potential therapeutic target for anti-platelet therapy.

文摘To further investigate the one-dimensional(1D)rheological consolidation mechanism of double-layered soil,the fractional derivative Merchant model(FDMM)and the non-Darcian flow model with the non-Newtonian index are respectively introduced to describe the deformation of viscoelastic soil and the flow of pore water in the process of consolidation.Accordingly,an 1D rheological consolidation equation of double-layered soil is obtained,and its numerical analysis is performed by the implicit finite difference method.In order to verify its validity,the numerical solutions by the present method for some simplified cases are compared with the results in the related literature.Then,the influence of the revelent parameters on the rheological consolidation of double-layered soil are investigated.Numerical results indicate that the parameters of non-Darcian flow and FDMM of the first soil layer greatly influence the consolidation rate of double-layered soil.As the decrease of relative compressibility or the increase of relative permeability between the lower soil and the upper soil,the dissipation rate of excess pore water pressure and the settlement rate of the ground will be accelerated.Increasing the relative thickness of soil layer with high permeability or low compressibility will also accelerate the consolidation rate of double-layered soil.

文摘Most of the existing multivariable grey models are based on the 1-order derivative and 1-order accumulation, which makes the parameters unable to be adjusted according to the data characteristics of the actual problems. The results about fractional derivative multivariable grey models are very few at present. In this paper, a multivariable Caputo fractional derivative grey model with convolution integral CFGMC(q, N) is proposed. First, the Caputo fractional difference is used to discretize the model, and the least square method is used to solve the parameters. The orders of accumulations and differential equations are determined by using particle swarm optimization(PSO). Then, the analytical solution of the model is obtained by using the Laplace transform, and the convergence and divergence of series in analytical solutions are also discussed. Finally, the CFGMC(q, N) model is used to predict the municipal solid waste(MSW). Compared with other competition models, the model has the best prediction effect. This study enriches the model form of the multivariable grey model, expands the scope of application, and provides a new idea for the development of fractional derivative grey model.

文摘Accurately evaluating the aerodynamic performance of a battle-structure-damaged aircraft is essential to enable the pilot to optimize the flight control strategy. Based on CFD and rigid dynamic mesh techniques,a numerical method is developed to calculate the longitudinal and longitudinal-lateral coupling forces and moments with small amplitude sinusoidal pitch oscillation, and the corresponding dynamic derivatives of two fragment-structure-damaged and two continuous-rod-damaged models modified from the SACCON UAV. The results indicate that, at the reference point set in this paper, additional positive damping is generated in fragment-damaged configurations;thus, the absolute values of the negative pitch dynamic derivative increase. The missing wingtip induces negative pitch damping on the aircraft and decreases the value of the pitch dynamic derivative. The missing middle wing causes a noticeable increase in the absolute value of the pitch dynamic derivative;the missing parts on the right wing cause the aircraft to roll to the right side in the dynamic process, and the pitch-roll coupling cross dynamic derivatives are positive. Moreover, the values of these derivatives increase as the damaged area on the right wing increases, and an optimal case with the smallest cross dynamic derivative can be found to help improve the survivability of damaged aircraft.

文摘Two novel ligands named 4-styrylpyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid (4-SPDA) and 4-(4-(2-(2, 6-dicarboxypyridin-4-yl)- vinyl)styryl)pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid(DSPDA) and their complexes with Tb(Ⅲ) were synthesized and characterized by infrared spectrometry, 1H nuclear magnetic resonance, elemental analysis and gas chromatograph-mass spectrometry. The ligand synthetic route was optimized. The fluorescence properties of the complex in solid state, in different kind of solvents and in solutions with different pH values were investigated in detail. The results show that the yields of DSPDA and 4-SPDA reach over 78% by Wittig-Horner reaction and other eight pyridine-2, 6-dicarboxylic acid derivatives with different substituents on pyridine ring, and their complexes with Tb(Ⅲ) are also obtained. The fluorescence intensities of the complexes with electron-donating groups are more intense than those of the complexes with electron-withdrawing groups on pyridine ring; fluorescence intensities of the complexes are the strongest in neutral solution (pH=7), and the less the dipole moment of solvent molecule is, the stronger the fluorescence intensity is. It is found that the two ligands (4-APDA and DSPDA) are the good sensitizers for Tb(Ⅲ) ion.

文摘OBJECTIVE To investigate the cardioprotective effect of novel danshensu derivatives against doxorubicin(Dox)cardiotoxicity and their synergistic anti-tumor effect with Dox on breast cancer cells.METHODS Two new Danshensu derivatives were synthesized by conjugation with tetramethylpyrizine and/or4-(3-thioxo-3 H-1,2-dithiol-4-yl)-benzoic acid and tested for protective effects against Dox induced cardiotoxicity in cell and zebrafish.H9c2 cardiomyoblasts were co-treated with Dox and Danshensu derivatives for 24 h and then were measured for cell viability and cytotoxicity by MTT and LDH assays.The expression levels of mitochondrial biogenesis related proteins PGC-1α,NRF-1and Nrf2 were detected by Western blotting and qPCR.Moreover,in a Dox-induced cardiotoxicity model of zebrafish,zebrafish embryos were treated with Dox for 36 h,followed by measurement of numerous ventricular function parameters including heart rate,stroke volume,cardiac output and fractional shortening.In addition,the synergistic anti-tumor effects of the Danshensu derivatives and Dox had been studied in MCF-7 breast cancer cells.The effects of the Danshensu derivatives on the cell death and metabolism of MCF-7 cells were measured using apoptosis assay and Seahorse Metabolic Analyzers respectively.RESULTS Our results showed that the Danshensu derivatives were more potent than the parental compounds in ameliorating Dox-induced cytotoxicity in H9c2 cells and significantly preserving stroke volume of heart function in Dox-treated zebrafish.Further mechanistic studies identified that the danshensu derivatives increased mitochondrial copy numbers and protein expressions of PGC-1α,NRF-1 and Nrf2 in H9c2 cells.In addition,the Danshensu derivatives enhanced Dox-induced apoptosis,and decreased glycolysis and mitochondrial function in MCF-7 tumor cells.CONCLUSION Our results revealed that two new Danshensu derivatives displayed promising cardioprotective effects against Dox induced cardiotoxicity both in vivo and in vitro,at least partially through activating mitochondrial biogenesis.Also,the new Danshensu derivatives potentiated the anticancer effects of Dox in breast tumor cells involving induction of glycolytic inhibition and mitochondrial dysfunction.

文摘OBJECTIVE Pulmonary artery hypertension(PAH)is a severe disease characterized by the mean pulmonary artery pressure exceeding 25 mm Hg at rest.PAH could induce right heart failure and has a very high mortality rate.At present,several kinds of drugs have been used in the treatment of PAH.However,most of these drugs aim to relax pulmonary arteries and do not inhibit the injury of vessels.In other words,the drugs available for PAH treatment do not improve the survival rate of PAH patients and cannot satisfy the needs in clinic.To discover and develop novel candidate compounds effective on the treatment of pulmonary artery injury and remodeling will be very important.Based on these background,the present study aimed to study the protective effect of two novel Rho-kinases(Rho-associated coiledcoil forming protein serine/threonine kinase,ROCK)inhibitors,DL0805 derivatives(DL0805-1and DL0805-2),on pulmonary arterial cells and further evaluate the underlying mechanisms and the possibility of DL0805 derivatives become therapeutic drugs for PAH.METHODS The primary cultured pulmonary arterial cells including human pulmonary artery endothelium cells(HPAECs)and human pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells(HPASMCs)were used in this study.HPAECs were injured under hypoxia environment(1%O2)and treated with or without DL0805 derivatives.After 48 h,the proliferation and oxidative stress were observed.CCK8 was used to detect cell viability.DCFH-DA was used as probe for reactive oxygen species(ROS)under fluorescence imaging system.HPASMCs was stimulated by growth factors including platelet-derived growth factor-BB(PDGF-BB)and Fetal Bovine Serum(FBS).The proliferation was observed in the cells treated with or without DL0805 derivatives.HPASMCs treated with or without DL0805 derivatives were further incubated with endothelin(ET-1),the proliferation and cytoskeleton remodeling of cells were detected by immunofluorescence assay.At last,Western blotting(WB)and immunofluorescence assay were employed to analysis the underlying mechanisms in the above experiments.RESULTS 10μmol·L-1DL0805-2 could inhibit the proliferation of HPAECs induced by hypoxia.Each concentration of DL0805-1 and DL0805-2attenuated the production of ROS in HPAECs.Results from WB indicated that DL0805 derivatives decreased the injury of HPAECs induced by hypoxia through the inhibition of the expression of Rho A and the activity of ROCK.On HPASMCs,DL0805 derivatives reduced the proliferation induced by PDGF-BB and FBS and inhibited cytoskeleton remodeling induced by ET-1.Immunofluorescence assay showed that DL0805 derivatives inhibited ROCK activity and down regulated the phosphorylation levels of ROCK substrates.CONCLUSION DL0805derivatives exhibited protective effect on pulmonary arterial cells including endothelium cells and smooth muscle cells.Among the above experiments,DL0805-2 showed stronger potency than DL0805-1.These two compounds might protect the cells through the inhibition of Rho A/ROCK pathway and they probably have the potential in the treatment of PAH and deserve further evaluation.
