The educator’s job is not increase motivation per se(本身）but to discover, initiate, and sustain student’s motivation to learn, and to engage in activities that lead to learning

In this appendix, we present a primer for people who are unfamiliar with the Java language. This introduction is intended to allow you to develop the Java skills necessary to understand the programs in this text. It is not a complete Java reference; for a more thorough coverage of Java, consult the Bibliographical Notes. We do not assume that you are familiar with object-oriented principles, such as classes, objects, and encapsulation, although some knowledge of these topics would be helpful. If you are already familiar with C or C++, the transition to Java will be smooth, because much Java syntax is based on C/C++

Based on the measured activities, the phase diagrams and the annexation principle, the calculating models of mass action concentrations for Ag-Bi and Ag-Bi-In melts have been formulated. The calculated results agree with practice and obey the mass action law, showing that the models formulated can reflect the structural characteristics of both melts. Meanwhile, it confirms that annexation principle is applicable to the Ag-Bi-In metallic melts. The melts involving eutectic which give rise to phase separation, and in which activities exhibit positive deviation from Raoult's law is the basic cause of melts transforming from homogeneous to heterogeneous ones

Ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBFS) and steelmaking slag have been used as a raw material for cement production or as an aggregate to make concrete, which contribute aluminum, calcium, iron, and silicon oxides.The suitability of the slag for a particular application depends on its reactivity, cost, availability, and its influence on the properties of the resulting concrete.For the interest of durability studying of concrete in the presence of slag, the accelerated carbonation products and leaching behavior of the slag and Portland cement (PC) were studied.The experimental results confirmed that the slag was more resistant to carbonation compared to PC.The carbonation degree of GGBFS reduced by 17.74%;and the carbonation degrees of steelmaking slags reduced by 9.51%-11.94%.Carbonation neutralized the alkaline nature of the hydrated pastes and gave rise to the redox potential of the leachate slightly (30-77mV).The carbonation also increased the release of most of the elements pr

The radical concepts of engineering stochastic optimization are introduced and a method for solving uncertain problems is developed according to the satisfied estimation of probabilistic values to stochastic constraints and the use of a quasi-gradient searching direction. The method is applied to engineering designs with linear or nonlinear stochastic constraints

Based on the experimental results and analysis of the cyclic deformation, there is an obvious yield stage on the cyclic stress-strain curve at the stage of small plastic deformation （in room or low temperatures）. This phenomenon is similar to that of monotonic tensile curve case. But for the former the deformation amount at which the yield begins is much smaller than that for the latter. The cyclic stress-strain constitutive relation needs to be further studied according to the actual cyclic stress-strain curve. The conventional constitutive equation σ=Aεn is based on the results only corresponding to the cyclic strengthening stage. It is not appropriate for the stage of the small plastic deformation and the stage of yield

High temperature corrosion tests in 75%Na2SO4-25%. NaCl molten salt have been conducted on waspalloy specimens plasma sprayed with Co-Cr-B-Si, Ni-Cr-B-Si-hCr3C2, X-40, X-40 + TiC and Ni/Al + Al2O3 coatings, test coupons were exposed isothermally at 750℃up to 200 h. After the corrosion tests, each sample was examined by OM, SEM and EMPA. It was found that X-40, X-40 + TiC and Ni/Al + Al2O3 were violently corroded by the molten salt due to cracking and spalling of the coatings, whereas Co-Cr-B-Si and Ni-Cr-B-Si + Cr3C2 exhibited superior corrosion resistance, which were thought to be related to the formation of chromium and silicon oxide film. A possible corrosion mechanism had been proposed and it is suggested that the excellent corrosion resistance and high hot-hardness of the two B-Si containing coatings may be of significance for applications in petroleum refining industry as

Using sand moulds for step-shape casting tests and different silicon percentage of nodular cast iron it was possible to separate structural variations produced during freezing from those occurring at Ac1 transformation temperature. The results show that an increase in silicon content leading to different variation in the matrix structure> leads to a changing mechanical properties of nodular cast irons. Tensile strength and elongation of obtained as-cast nodular cast iron with the composition of 3.9%C, 3.2%Si, 0.5%Mn are maximum of about 524.5N/mm2 and 19.8% accordingly. In the same nodular cast iron, but only with 0.1% Mn the silicon addition first increases after decreases elongation, impact toughness and hardness. But tensile strength changes to the opposite side

This is an admirably concise and clear guide to fundamental concepts in physiology relevant to clinical practice. It covers all the body systems in an accessible style of presentation. Bulleted checklists and boxed information provide an easy overview and summary of the essentials. By concentrating on the core knowledge of physiology, it will serve as a useful revision aid for all doctors striving to achieve postgraduate qualification, and for anyone needing to refresh their knowledge base in the key elements of clinical physiology. The author’s own experience as an examiner at all levels has been distilled here for the benefit of postgraduate trainees and medical and nursing students. Dr Ashis Banerjee is Consultant in Emergency Medicine and serves as Examiner for those undertaking their MB, BS, MRCS and MFAEM examinations
