Supporting primary students' learning of fraction conceptual knowledge through digital games

With the advent of mobile technologies, well-designed fraction apps can be used to help children gain fraction knowledge, a challenging topic for both teachers and students. The present pilot study adopted a quasi-experimental design to investigate whether children can learn fraction concepts equally well if half of the lesson time (20 min) is replaced with game-based learning. Keeping the total lesson time (40 min) identical, the control group (N = 33) received traditional instruction, and the experimental group (N = 32) was presented with a blended learning approach spending half of the class time (20 min) playing tablet-based fraction games, where each of the learners had their own tablet. The results suggested that in the posttest, the experimental group achieved similar learning gains to the control group and appear to have achieved better performance in the transfer test than the control group. This paper also discusses the efficiency of game-based learning, the mechanism of how fraction games might enhance learning, and the potential of integrating game-based learning in educational settings.     

双膦胺镍-甲基铝氧烷体系催化苯乙烯聚合

研究了具有新型结构的双膦胺镍配合物N,N-双(二苯膦基)-对甲氧基苯胺二氯化镍-甲基铝氧烷(PNP-N i-MAO)催化体系对苯乙烯聚合的催化性能,考察了聚合温度、n(A l)∶n(PNP-N i)、PNP-N i的浓度和苯乙烯的浓度对催化活性、苯乙烯转化率、聚苯乙烯相对分子质量及其分布的影响,并用核磁共振和凝胶色谱对聚苯乙烯的结构进行了表征。实验结果表明,在聚合温度25℃、聚合时间1h、n(A l)∶n(PNP-N i)=300、c(苯乙烯)=2.3m ol/L、c(PNP-N i)=0.4mm ol/L、甲苯为溶剂的适宜条件下,苯乙烯的转化率可达95%以上,催化活性达到5×105g/(m ol.h)左右。核磁共振和凝胶色谱表征结果显示,所得聚苯乙烯为无规结构,重均相对分子质量约为1×104,相对分子质量分布Mw/Mn约为2。

On loop transformations for generalized cycle shrinking

This paper describes several loop transformation techniques for extracting parallelism from nested loop structures. Nested loops can then be scheduled to run in parallel so that execution time is minimized. One technique is called selective cycle shrinking, and the other is called true dependence cycle shrinking. It is shown how selective shrinking is related to linear scheduling of nested loops and how true dependence shrinking is related to conflict-free mappings of higher dimensional algorithms into lower dimensional processor arrays. Methods are proposed in this paper to find the selective and true dependence shrinkings with minimum total execution time by applying the techniques of finding optimal linear schedules and optimal and conflict-free mappings proposed by W. Shang and A.B. Fortes     

A versatile data acquisition system for time resolved X-ray scattering using gas proportional detectors with delay line readout

A data acquisition system for time resolved X-ray scattering experiments using linear, quadrant or area gas proportional detectors with delay line readout based on commercially available hardware (National Instruments) is described. The system can easily be configured for recording data from point detectors (e.g. photomultipliers and photodiodes) and/or ancillary data only. Applications involving measurements with two different types of time to digital converters illustrate the features and performances of the system.     

膏盐岩地层地质特征与录井技术

石油勘探实践和研究结果表明，许多油气藏的形成都与膏盐岩地层有关，也常与膏盐岩地层伴生，成功钻穿膏盐岩地层是钻井难题之一，录井技术成为钻进安全监测、膏盐岩地层准确预报的重要手段。针对上述情况，介绍了膏盐岩地层的主要类型、沉积模式以及与油气的关系，归纳总结了膏盐岩地层的录井技术经验，包括：在随钻录井过程中熟悉地质设计与邻井资料；在没有预测钻遇膏盐岩地层的情况下，通过钻井液中Cl^-的变化判定是否钻遇膏盐岩地层；预计钻遇膏盐岩地层时，使用饱和盐水钻井液；钻遇膏盐岩地层后观察盐岩是否以岩屑形式返出；同时，把握膏盐岩地层的岩性、岩性组合、层位、顶底界和厚度是非常重要的。通过S1井实例分析，论述了在膏盐岩地层中钻进时，防卡、防漏是录井人员监测和预报的重点。     

天然气管网输配气量优化研究

天然气管网系统管理部门为了明确天然气管网的输气能力和提高天然气管网的利用率，需要对天然气管网系统的输配气量进行优化。为此，以天然气管网系统的最大流量为目标函数，同时考虑了管道强度、节点压力和流量限制等约束条件，建立了天然气管网输配气量优化的数学模型。在研究遗传算法和模拟退火算法的基础上，提出了一种由二者结合构成的具有全域搜索、快速收敛和鲁棒性强等特点的混合遗传算法。结合实例，采用这一新算法求解了天然气管网输配气量优化的数学模型。实例优化结果表明，所建立的数学模型和采用的混合遗传算法是可行和有效的，能够对天然气管网系统输配气量的调度运行起到指导作用。
