Comparative Analysis of Academic Research and Scientific Research Management in Chinese and Australian Universities

The academic research and scientific research management play a key role in the scientific research direction, project application, transformation of scientific research achievements and academic exchanges of universities. In Australia, which is powerful in education, the industrialization of education with eight Australian schools as the core is becoming more and more complete, and its scientific research and talent cultivation mechanisms are becoming more scientific and efficient. The core of scientific research management in Australian universities is people-oriented, paying more attention to the cultivation of talents, and having a relatively complete scientific research platform management mechanism independent of universities. Concisely, in China, due to its large number of students, the Chinese universities often focus on basic teaching and curriculum settings. The number of scientific researchers in universities is scarce and there is a lack of a favourable scientific research environment. In recent years, with the gradual implementation of the construction of double first-class colleges and universities, the academic research and scientific research management of our country's universities have also been continuously developed. Taking the universities in Jilin Province as an example, this paper compares the academic research and scientific research management of universities in China and Australia, points out their advantages and disadvantages and puts forward some suggestions.

An application of network modeling method to scientific research and demonstration platform—Connector load analysis

A new approach referred as “the network modeling method” was developed by the authors to analyze the behaviors of marine structures. In this paper the method is briefly described and applied to predict the loads acting on the connectors between the two modules of the Scientific Research and Demonstration Platform (SRDP), which was deployed in a complicated wave environment near islands and reefs in South China Sea. Based on this method, the response amplitude operators (RAOs) of the connector loads of the SRDP in regular waves, and the time variations of the connector loads of the SRDP in an on-site measured random sea state are predicted and presented. The significant stresses at 20 spots of the local connection structure induced by the connector loads in the sea state are further calculated. The comparisons between the predicted and the on-site measured stresses confirm that the network modeling method is feasible to some extent and especially useful for design of the connectors’ arrangement, estimation of the connector loads and the related structural safety of a multi-module floating structure in early design stage.

A direct coupling analysis method and its application to the Scientific Research and Demonstration Platform

Design of a very large floating structure (VLFS) deployed near islands and reefs, different from those in the open sea, inevitably faces new technical challenges including numerical analysis methods. In this paper, a direct coupling analysis method (DCAM) has been established based on the Boussinesq equations and the three-dimensional hydroelasisity theory with Rankine source method to analyze the responses of a VLFS in shallow sea with complicated geographical environment. Model tests have been carried out to validate the DCAM. To further verify the numerical methods and investigate the performance of such a VLFS, a “Scientific Research and Demonstration Platform (SRDP)” was built and deployed in 2019 at the site about 1 000 m off an island with water depth around 40m in South China Sea. It is a simplified small model of a two-module semi-submersible-type VLFS. The numerical simulation of its responses on severe waves with focus on motions and connector forces is conduct by DCAM, and compared with the on-site measurements. Good agreement has been achieved. This approves the DCAM as a feasible tool for design and safety assessment of a VLFS deployed near islands and reefs.

The progress in the verification of key technologies for floating structures near islands and reefs

In 2019 a Scientific Research & Demonstration Platform was deployed near islands and reefs in South China Sea by a joint research group of 7 institutes and universities in China. It is a simplified small model of a two-module semi-submersible-type VLFS. The test on site has continued for more than one and half years since then for long-term observations to validate the developed key technologies for design and behavior predictions of floating structures deployed near islands and reefs. An integrated information system was set up to continuously collect and inspect the data of the encountered waves, structure responses, connector forces, mooring line forces, anti-corrosion status of the platform, the performance efficiencies of a floating breakwater nearby and a wave energy converter attached on the breakwater. In this paper, the status of the on-site measurements and validations of the key technologies are briefly described.

A New Facility for Airborne Solar Astronomy: NASA’s WB-57 at the 2017 Total Solar Eclipse

Abstract NASA’s WB-57 High Altitude Research Program provides a deployable, mobile, and stratospheric platform for scientific research. Airborne platforms are of particular value for making coronal observations during total solar eclipses because of their ability both to follow the Moon’s shadow and to get above most of the atmospheric air mass that can interfere with astronomical observations. We used the 2017 August 21 eclipse as a pathfinding mission for high-altitude airborne solar astronomy, using the existing high-speed visible-light and near/midwave infrared imaging suite mounted in the WB-57 nose cone. In this paper, we describe the aircraft, the instrument, and the 2017 mission; operations and data acquisition; and preliminary analysis of data quality from the existing instrument suite. We describe benefits and technical limitations of this platform for solar and other astronomical observations. We present a preliminary analysis of the visible-light data quality and discuss the limiting factors that must be overcome with future instrumentation. We conclude with a discussion of lessons learned from this pathfinding mission and prospects for future research at upcoming eclipses, as well as an evaluation of the capabilities of the WB-57 platform for future solar astronomy and general astronomical observation.

Practicality of promoting brain health and early dementia screening in elderly residents with friendly mobile App: Beijing plan

This article presents a brief introduction of Beijing plan, namely the Beijing’s Brain Health Examination (dementia risk screening) project initiated by Beijing municipal government in early 2019, which is a successful exploration and practicality of brain health examination for the community residences and dementia risk screening system construction. Slowing down the incidents of dementia and reducing eventually its prevalence in the population has been one of the main targets highlighted in Healthy China Initiative 2030 , by Chinese government. As a welfare to its elderly residents, Beijing municipal government initiated the brain health examination (dementia risk screening) project, aiming to provide brain health examination service for 96000 permanent residences over 65 years old at six districts in Beijing before the end of 2019 and gradually make the service available city-wide. This project is a first yet crucial step that governments, central or local, take the lead and concrete measure to organize and implement brain health examination for the aged on a large scale, and to make the nation’s strategy of healthy China a reality by 2030. Through the early detection and reduction of dementia prevalence, the project would make optimal allocation of medical resources possible and bring enormous social and economic benefit. For example, it will save an estimated cost of 23.36 billion yuan for healthcare in five years only in Beijing area. As an institute involved in the early conceptualization and initiation of this project, the Center for Beijing Aging Brain Rejuvenation Initiative (BABRI) and State Key Laboratory of Cognitive Neuroscience and Learning, Beijing Normal University have been working on AD risk longitudinal research (BABRI project) primarily community-cohort based and later with the added clinical-based cohort since 2008. Based on our ten-year basic research and technology advancement, we built a state-of-art mobile platform with innovative cognitive and mental tests as well as the well-known standard ones. It also includes dementia risk screening system and has been used for the Brain Health Examination (Dementia Risk Screening) project successfully. This platform endows the advantages of high screening efficiency, uses shorter time and is designed for its convenience for the elderly. In addition, it is also a platform for basic scientific research by providing comprehensive data managements, and curative effect assessment of cognitive rehabilitation training. And it’s a technological answer to problems faced by large-scale community-based dementia risk screening. In summary, the Beijing’s Brain Health Examination project not only lays the foundation for carrying out the citywide screening for the aged as a social welfare, but also plays a trend-leading role for the establishment of a government sponsored system for brain health in major provinces and cities of China.

Density functional calculations of efficient H2 separation from impurity gases (H2, N2, H2O, CO, Cl2, and CH4) via bilayer g-C3N4 membrane**Project supported by the Fundamental Research Funds for the Central Universities, China (Grant No. 2018B19414), the Natural Science Foundation of Jiangsu Province, China (Grant No. BK20161501), the Six Talent Peaks Project in Jiangsu Province, China (Grant No. 2015-XCL-010), the National

Membrane technology has been used for H2 purification. In this paper, the systematic density functional simulations are conducted to study the separation of H2 from the impurity gases (H2, N2, H2O, CO, Cl2, and CH4) by the bilayer porous graphitic carbon nitride(g-C3N4) membrane. Theoretically, the bilayer g-C3N4 membrane with a diameter of about 3.25 Å should be a perfect candidate for H2 purification from these mixed gases, which is verified by the high selectivity (S) for H2 over other kinds of gases (3.43×1028 for H2/N2; 1.40×1028 for H2/H2O; 1.60×1026 for H2/CO; 4.30×1014 for H2/Cl2; 2.50×1055 for H2/CH4), and the permeance (P) of H2 () across the bilayer g-C3N4 membrane at 300 K, which should be of great potential in energy and environmental research. Our studies highlight a new approach towards the final goal of high P and high S molecular-sieving membranes used in simple structural engineering.
