同轴全铰链双输出脉冲发生机构尺度综合与优化 by 杜力, 邹昌平, 冯俊, 向成宣, 黄茂林

“…In order to enhance the efficiency,stability and simplify the structure of the mechanism,the dimension synthesis of the full hinge coaxial two-output function generator is performed by using group-synthesis scheme and regarding the six-bar mechanism as the parallel mechanism of a set of basic four-bar mechanism and a set of equivalent four-bar mechanism.Firstly,a basic four-bar mechanism synthetic model is established and solved based on two position synthesis and equal instantaneous transmission ratio.Then the dimensional parameters of an equivalent four-bar mechanism（a five-bar loop） is solved by using equivalent principle of a variable link-length four-bar mechanism based on the basic four-bar mechanism.By this scheme,the dimensional synthesis of high order of motion parameter can be solved with good results,and the results show that the pulse data of the full hinge coaxial two-output function generator is only six percent.…”

Review: roles of mycorrhizal symbioses and associated soil microbiomes in ecological restoration by Christine Lethielleux-Juge

“…A similar recovery period was observed for fungal communities in forest restoration, where ectomycorrhizal mycorrhizal fungi (EMF) species dominate, and diversity increased with time post-revegetation, influenced by edaphic variables and tree species. Under heavy metal (HM) contamination, microorganism classes, enzymes, and AMF efficiency vary with time, soil parameters, restoration treatments, plant species, and levels of soil contamination, with Proteobacteria and Actinobacteria being often predominant. …”
