Assessing the feasibility of involving gaseous products resulting from physicochemical oxidation of human liquid and solid wastes in the cycling of a bio-technical life support system

The study addresses the possible ways of involving gaseous products produced by “wet” incineration of human wastes mixed with H₂O₂ in an alternating electric field in the cycling of the physical model of a bio-technical life support system (BTLSS). The resulting gas mixture contains CO₂ and O₂, which are easily involved in the cycling in the closed ecosystem, and NH₃, which is unacceptable in the atmosphere of the BTLSS. NH₃ fixation has been proposed, which is followed by nitrification and involvement of the resulting products in the mass exchange of the closed system. Experiments have been performed to show that plants can be grown in the atmosphere resulting from the closing of the gas loop that includes a physicochemical installation and a growth chamber with plants representing the phototrophic compartment of the BTLSS. The results of the study suggest the conclusion that the proposed method of organic waste oxidation can be a useful tool in creating a physical model of a closed-loop integrated BTLSS.

TA17钛合金板状连接件的疲劳裂纹扩展行为研究

TA17钛合金是航空航天等工程中重要的结构材料,其疲劳裂纹扩展性能直接影响整体结构的安全性和完整性。本文基于Cr2Ni2MoV钢材紧凑拉伸试样斜裂纹疲劳裂纹扩展的试验结果,验证了ABAQUS软件XFEM模块用于分析平面应力状态下疲劳裂纹扩展的有效性,然后采用XFEM模块分析了TA17钛合金及其连接件的疲劳裂纹扩展性能。结果表明降低最大荷载、减小加载比和采用长圆孔型均可有效提高TA17钛合金连接件的疲劳寿命。采用XFEM模块可以预测连接件疲劳寿命的S-N曲线,预测TA17钛合金结构载荷增大33.3%,疲劳寿命减小为原来的1/4,可为工程疲劳设计提供参考依据。     

不同增长机制下航空网络自愈特性

结合复杂网络理论,从能量的角度分析了航空网络的功能自愈机理,并研究了航空网络在不同增长机制下的自愈特性。首先,将网络结构划分为自愈结构与耦合结构,并针对航空网络3种增长机制进行了分析和抽象建模;然后,从网络全局角度出发研究了美国航空网络在遭受蓄意攻击造成全网功能瘫痪的情况下,网络功能的恢复鲁棒性和网络增长对网络自愈能力的影响。研究表明,美国航空网络具有较好的恢复鲁棒性,接近80%的机场在受到能量冲击造成的短暂失效后具有功能自愈能力。航空网络不同的增长机制对网络的自愈能力有着不同的影响。结果证实,为完善航空网络而建立的机场群,由于其较大的连接需求,加大了网络区域密度,复杂了网络拓扑结构,降低了网络的自愈能力;而小型机场的增加不会影响网络整体的自愈能力。      

Study on O2 generation and CO2 absorption capability of four co-cultured salad plants in an enclosed system

The ability to generate O₂ and absorb CO₂ of several co-cultured vegetable plants in an enclosed system was studied to provide theoretical reference for the future man-plant integrated tests. Four kinds of salad plants (Lactuca sativa L. var. Dasusheng, Lactuca sativa L. var. Youmaicai, Gynura bicolor and Cichorium endivia L.) were grown in the CELSS Integration Test Platform (CITP). The environmental factors including O₂ and CO₂ concentration were continuously monitored on-line and the plant biomass was measured at the end of the test. The changing rules of O₂ and CO₂ concentration in the system were basically understood and it was found that the O₂ generated by the plants could satisfy the respiratory needs of 1.75 persons by calculation. It was also found that the plants could absorb the CO₂ breathed out by 2 persons when the light intensity was raised to 550 mmol m⁻² s⁻¹ PPF. The results showed that the co-cultured plants hold good compatibility and excellent O₂-generating and CO₂-absorbing capability. They could also supply some fresh edible vegetable for a 2-person crew.
