Predicting size effect on diffusion-limited current density of oxygen reduction by copper wire

The size effect of copper wire radius (0.04–0.82 mm) on the diffusion-limited current density of an oxygen reduction reaction in stagnant simulated seawater (naturally aerated 0.5 mol/L NaCl) is investigated by potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and compared with the results obtained in 0.5 mol/L H2SO4. In the oxygen diffusion-limited range, size effect is found to occur independent of electrolytes, which is attributed to non-linear diffusion. Additionally, to sati...

Characteristics of convection and overshooting in RGB and AGB stars

Based on the turbulent convection model (TCM) of Li & Yang, we have studied the characteristics of turbulent convection in the envelopes of 2 and 5M⊙ stars at the red giant branch and asymptotic giant branch phases. The TCM has been successfully applied over the entire convective envelopes, including the convective unstable zone and the overshooting regions. We find that the convective motions become progressively stronger when the stellar models are located farther up along the Hayashi line. In the convect...     

基于GIS矿产勘查靶区优选技术

靶区优选是矿产勘查中的一个关键环节, 它既是矿产资源预测成果的直接体现形式, 同时又是联系矿产资源预测与勘查工作部署的桥梁.然而, 由于人们认识上的不完备性和缺乏相应的技术手段支撑, 使得靶区优选常被忽视或简化.探讨了靶区优选的地质基础原则, 建立了靶区优选的技术流程, 研发了基于GIS支持下靶区优选计算机辅助决策模块, 并以云南省个旧地区与岩浆活动有关的锡铜多金属矿靶区为例进行了示范研究.结果表明靶区优选技术及相应的软件能够客观地反映不同靶区的特征, 提高靶区优选的智能化程度和工作效率.      

贝塞尔曲线在虚拟森林景观单树几何模型构建中的应用

虚拟景观模型的生成,需要对实际景观进行抽象和简化。树几何模型和数字高程模型(DEM)是构成虚拟森林景观的两大要素。而树几何模型的构建又是林业GIS三维可视化的基础。在树几何建模中,树干及树枝形状的可视化表达具有突出意义。由于实际树种的复杂性,在计算机中建树模型,通常采用基于过程建模的方式,而这将面临用户如何对模型进行交互式控制的问题：参数太少,不足以描述树形态特征,而参数太多,则模型难以生成和理解。为了解决这个问题,我们引进贝塞尔(Bezier)曲线这种基于控制点的自由曲线来描述树木中的树干以及树枝形状,利用对曲线控制点的变动来控制曲线的形状,进而生成形态各异的树形状,对此,我们基于ActiveX技术生成Bezier曲线控件。结果表明,该方法能够表示多种形状的树干与树枝,具有操作简捷、计算速度快,可视化效果良好的优点。

安徽淮南群四顶山组燧石Sm-Nd年龄测定

在对苏皖北部的上前寒武系进行了矿物学研究基础上,选择安徽北部淮南群四顶山组燧石作为测定对象,系统测试Rb-Sr和Sm-Nd同位素,应用Sm-Nd等时线方法进行了定年。本次研究表明,安徽淮南群四顶山组燧石可能是在海洋环境中形成,主要反映了陆源物质特征,其形成时代约为800Ma。这为苏皖北部地区上前寒武系是位于华北区青白口系和扬子区震旦系之间的一套地层提供了一个新的证据,也进一步印证了淮南生物群属于先伊迪卡拉期的学术观点。     

Accelerating Oil and Gas Exploration in Western China by Studies of Formations of Hydrocarbon Accumulations in Superimposed Basins—A Preface

<正>The superimposed basins in the western region of China are a hot research topic for earth scientists home and abroad for their vast area and rich oil and gas resources.Their complex geological conditions and resultant great exploration difficulties have received much attention of the scientists.This issue presents the advances of several scholars in their long-term research on the mechanisms of oil and gas accumulation and the patterns of oil and gas distribution.These studies are part of the National 973 Project entitled Mechanism of Oil and Gas Accumulation and
