The experimental results show that compound addition of slag and fly ash decreases the coarse porosity from 10.17% to 3.74% and the threshold diameter of coarse pore size from 345 μm to 105 μm compared with concrete （w/c=0.30） without mineral admixtures; Moreover with compound addition of fly ash and slag, the volume proportion of unhydrated cement in paste matrix is reduced by 30%, the maximum amount of coarse pores in the ITZ between aggregate and paste decreases from 13.11% to 5.57% and the thickness of ITZ is reduced by 37% , compared with concrete without mineral admixtures.展开更多

Plants are an important basic requirement of these systems and their biological characteristics in space have very high research value. Based on experiments of spaceflight in Shenzhou 8 spacecraft and simulating microgravity effects on three-dimensional （3-D） clinostat, the biological characteristics of tomato＇s leaf cell sub-microstructure and antioxidant enzyme activities were studied and compared in this work. Results showed that leaf cell sub-microstructure of the tomato samples experiencing spaceflight had more changes than effects, and both peroxidase （POD） and superoxide dismutase （SOD） that of the samples processed by simulated microgravity activities increase obviously in both the environments.展开更多
