Update on Mayer–Rokitansky–Küster–Hauser syndrome

Frontiers of Medicine 2022, Volume 16, Issue 6,   Pages 859-872 doi: 10.1007/s11684-022-0969-3

Abstract: This review presents an update of Mayer–Rokitansky–Küster–Hauser (MRKH) syndrome on its etiologic, clinical, diagnostic, psychological, therapeutic, and reproductive aspects. The etiology of MRKH syndrome remains unclear due to its intrinsic heterogeneity. Nongenetic and genetic causes that may interact during the embryonic development have been proposed with no definitive etiopathogenesis identified. The proportion of concomitant extragenital malformations varies in different studies, and the discrepancies may be explained by ethnic differences. In addition to physical examination and pelvic ultrasound, the performance of pelvic magnetic resonance imaging is crucial in detecting the presence of rudimentary uterine endometrium. MRKH syndrome has long-lasting psychological effects on patients, resulting in low esteem, poor coping strategies, depression, and anxiety symptoms. Providing psychological counseling and peer support to diagnosed patients is recommended. Proper and timely psychological intervention could significantly improve a patient’s outcome. Various nonsurgical and surgical methods have been suggested for treatment of MRKH syndrome. Due to the high success rate and minimal risk of complications, vaginal dilation has been proven to be the first-line therapy. Vaginoplasty is the second-line option for patients experiencing dilation failure. Uterine transplantation and gestational surrogacy are options for women with MRKH syndrome to achieve biological motherhood.

LV Jing, FU Meng, QIN Na, DONG Bin

Frontiers in Energy 2008, Volume 2, Issue 3,   Pages 339-343 doi: 10.1007/s11708-008-0045-y

Abstract: The heat transfer characteristics of supercritical carbon dioxide in a horizontal tube with water in the vertical cross flow form were experimentally investigated. The results indicate that the changes of inlet pressure, mass flow rate, and cooling water flow rate have major effects on heat transfer performance. The variations of Reynolds number and Prandtl number were obtained in counter flow and vertical cross flow. The four conventional correlations for convection heat transfer of supercritical carbon dioxide were verified by the experimental data in this study and the correlation agree with this experimental condition was determined.

Stochastic analysis of laminated composite plate considering stochastic homogenization problem

SAKATA,K. OKUDA,K. IKEDA

Frontiers of Structural and Civil Engineering 2015, Volume 9, Issue 2,   Pages 141-153 doi: 10.1007/s11709-014-0286-2

Abstract: This paper discusses a multiscale stochastic analysis of a laminated composite plate consisting of unidirectional fiber reinforced composite laminae. In particular, influence of a microscopic random variation of the elastic properties of component materials on mechanical properties of the laminated plate is investigated. Laminated composites are widely used in civil engineering, and therefore multiscale stochastic analysis of laminated composites should be performed for reliability evaluation of a composite civil structure. This study deals with the stochastic response of a laminated composite plate against the microscopic random variation in addition to a random variation of fiber orientation in each lamina, and stochastic properties of the mechanical responses of the laminated plate is investigated. Halpin-Tsai formula and the homogenization theory-based finite element analysis are employed for estimation of effective elastic properties of lamina, and the classical laminate theory is employed for analysis of a laminated plate. The Monte-Carlo simulation and the first-order second moment method with sensitivity analysis are employed for the stochastic analysis. From the numerical results, importance of the multiscale stochastic analysis for reliability evaluation of a laminated composite structure and applicability of the sensitivity-based approach are discussed.

Shape control of multi-cellular inflatable panels

KATAYAMA, K. ISHIMURA, K. MINESUGI, DANIEL J. INMAN

Frontiers of Mechanical Engineering 2013, Volume 8, Issue 3,   Pages 276-282 doi: 10.1007/s11465-013-0267-5

Abstract:

Multi-cellular inflatable structures are ultra-light and robust against membrane damage such as pinholes caused by space debris. Due to their robustness, inflatable structures supported by inner gases can be applied as space structures. In the present study, shape control for a simple multi-cellular inflatable panel was achieved via a novel diaphragm mechanism. When the bending actuator in a center membrane bends, the inner pressures of sub-cells become different, and the diaphragm mechanism bends as a whole. Because a sliding component is not included, this deformable system is a reliable mechanism. In addition, the proposed mechanism has higher rigidity than that of a bending actuator used alone. In the present paper, we investigate the feasibility of a novel diaphragm mechanism and its characteristics using experimental and numerical results.

Yixin Zhang, Lu Zhou, Liqing Chen, Yang Guo, Fanhui Guo, Jianjun Wu, Baiqian Dai

Frontiers of Chemical Science and Engineering 2021, Volume 15, Issue 3,   Pages 518-527 doi: 10.1007/s11705-020-1926-9

Abstract: The coal fly ash produced by gasification is estimated to be over 80 million ton per year in China by 2021. It has mainly been disposed as solid waste by landfill. There is lack of study focused on its utilization. In this paper, the coal fly ash produced by gasification was at first analyzed and then applied to synthesize zeolite as an adsorbent. The effects of synthesis conditions on the cation exchange capacity (CEC) of zeolite were investigated. The results from X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscope indicated that the crystallinity of the synthesized zeolite is the most important factor to affect the CEC. When the synthesized zeolite with the highest CEC (275.5 meq/100 g) was used for the adsorption of Cr(VI) from aqueous solution, the maximum adsorption capacity for Cr(VI) was found to be 17.924 mg/g. The effects of pH, contact time and initial concentration on the adsorption of Cr(VI) were also investigated. The adsorption kinetics and isotherms can be well described by the pseudo-second-order model and Langmuir isotherm model, respectively.

A multi-attribute decision making approach of mix design based on experimental soil characterization

Amit K. BERA, Tanmoy MUKHOPADHYAY, Ponnada J. MOHAN, Tushar K. DEY

Frontiers of Structural and Civil Engineering 2018, Volume 12, Issue 3,   Pages 361-371 doi: 10.1007/s11709-017-0425-7

Abstract:

The clay mineral composition is one of the major factors that governs the physical properties of silty sand subgrade. Therefore, a thorough knowledge of mineral composition is essential to predict the optimum engineering properties of the soil, which is generally characterized by different indices like maximum dry density (MDD), California bearing ratio (CBR), unconfined compressive strength (UCS) and free swelling index (FSI). In this article, a novel multi-attribute decision making (MADM) based approach of mix design has been proposed for silty sand – artificial clay mix to improve the characteristic strength of a soil subgrade. Experimental investigation has been carried out in this study to illustrate the proposed approach of selecting appropriate proportion for the soil mix to optimize all the above mentioned engineering properties simultaneously. The results show that a mix proportion containing approximately 90% silty sand plus 10% bentonite soil is the optimal combination in context to the present study. The proposed methodology for optimal decision making to choose appropriate combination of bentonite and silty sand is general in nature and therefore, it can be extended to other problems of selecting mineral compositions.

Performance and synergistic effect of phenolic and thio antioxidants in ABS graft copolymers

Gongsheng LI, Xuhong GUO, Wang NA, Diancheng HAO, Mingyao ZHANG, Huixuan ZHANG, Jun XU

Frontiers of Chemical Science and Engineering 2011, Volume 5, Issue 1,   Pages 26-34 doi: 10.1007/s11705-010-0531-8

Abstract: The synergistic effect of phenolic and thio antioxidants on the stabilization of acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) graft copolymers has been studied. Three commercial antioxidants Irganox245, Irganox1076 and dilauryl thiodipropionate (DLTP) were selected. Formulations based on hindered phenols and secondary antioxidant DLTP were prepared. Stabilization was monitored in terms of changes in the functional groups (oxidation products), tensile properties and yellowness index. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetry (TG) were also used to assess the stability. The results indicated that the combination of Irganox245 and DLTP showed much better stabilization effect than the individual components due to the strong synergistic effect. Only weak synergism could be observed in the formulation that contained Irganox1076 and DLTP. Irganox1076 and Irgnox1076/DLTP exhibited similar behaviors between antioxidants with the highest and lowest efficiencies.

Jiajun CHEN , Hao WANG , Na ZHANG ,

Frontiers of Environmental Science & Engineering 2009, Volume 3, Issue 3,   Pages 313-319 doi: 10.1007/s11783-009-0025-4

Abstract: This investigation was carried out to establish a new domestic landfill gas (LFG) generation rate model that takes into account the impact of leachate recirculation. The first-order kinetics and two-stage reaction (FKTSR) model of the LFG generation rate includes mechanisms of the nutrient balance for biochemical reaction in two main stages. In this study, the FKTSR model was modified by the introduction of the outflow function and the organic acid conversion coefficient in order to represent the in-situ condition of nutrient loss through leachate. Laboratory experiments were carried out to simulate the impact of leachate recirculation and verify the modified FKTSR model. The model calibration was then calculated by using the experimental data. The results suggested that the new model was in line with the experimental data. The main parameters of the modified FKTSR model, including the LFG production potential (), the reaction rate constant in the first stage (), and the reaction rate constant in the second stage () of 64.746 L, 0.202 d, and 0.338 d, respectively, were comparable to the old ones of 42.069 L, 0.231 d, and 0.231 d. The new model is better able to explain the mechanisms involved in LFG generation.

Promoting effect of Zr on the catalytic combustion of methane over Pd/γ-Al

Hongbo NA,Tianle ZHU,Zhiming LIU,Yifei SUN

Frontiers of Environmental Science & Engineering 2014, Volume 8, Issue 5,   Pages 659-665 doi: 10.1007/s11783-013-0613-1

Abstract: The effect of Zr on the catalytic performance of Pd/γ-Al O for the methane combustion was investigated. The results show that the addition of Zr can improve the activity and stability of Pd/γ-Al O catalyst, which, based on the catalyst characterization (N adsorption, XRD, CO-Chemisorption, XPS, CH -TPR and O -TPO), is ascribed to the interaction between Pd and Zr. The active phase of methane combustion over supported palladium catalyst is the Pd /Pd mixture. Zr addition inhibits Pd aggregation and enhances the redox properties of active phase Pd / Pd . H reduction could effectively reduce the oxidation degree of Pd species and regenerate the active sites (Pd / Pd ).
