Structure diagram of insulation storage tank. by Liang Ge (541067)

“…The experimental results show that: (1) The liquid volume in a tank of vacuum degree within 2.0 Pa and 200 mm interlayer reduced no more than 15.5% after 48 days; (2) Taking the pressure in the tank as the power source, because of environmental differences inside and outside the pipe after 100 m pressure holding delivery, the physical form of liquid and gas could be converted instantly; (3) The continuous discharge time without ice blocking for a tank full of 2 m³ liquid was about 10.5 min under 25 L dual mode nitrogen pressurization, which is 1/12 of injection time after ground gasification; (4) Based on the temperature decrease trend measured at different positions, the cooling characteristics on liquid gasification jet path are quantified, and the calculation formula of temperature changing with time on the center line of liquid gasification jet is obtained. …”

Defective autophagy in osteoblasts induces endoplasmic reticulum stress and causes remarkable bone loss by Huixia Li (739049)

“…The trabecular bone volume of <i>Atg7</i> cKO mice was significantly lower than that of controls at 5 months of age. This phenotype was attributed to decreased osteoblast formation and matrix mineralization, accompanied with an increased osteoclast number and the extent of the bone surface covered by osteoclasts as well as an elevated secretion of <i>TNFSF11/RANKL</i> (tumor necrosis factor [ligand] superfamily, member 11), and a decrease in <i>TNFRSF11B/OPG</i> (tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily, member 11b [osteoprotegerin]). …”

Field-Enhanced Nanoconvection Accelerated Electrocatalytic Conversion of Water Contaminants and Electricity Generation by Qinghua Ji (1477417)

“…The finite-element numerical simulation shows that the heat of reactions can produce temperature gradients and subsequently lead to fluid motion at the interfaces, which facilitates the rate-limiting step (mass transfer). To demonstrate the effects of localized field-enhanced mass transport in electrocatalytic conversion of aqueous dilute species, a galvanic cell is constructed with a vertically aligned polyaniline array with sharp tips (as cathode) for the detoxification of a low concentration of carcinogenic chromate and synchronous electricity generation, which show lower overpotential (0.17 V decreased), higher reaction rate (increased by 28%), and power density (22.3 W m^–2 in 2 mM chromate). …”
