Hemocyanin, the respiratory pigment of the scorpion Androctonus australis is composed of 24 kidney shaped subunits. A model of architecture supported by many indirect arguments has been deduced from electron microscopy (EM) and immuno-EM. To ascertain, the disposition of the subunits within the oligomer, the 24mer was submitted to three-dimensional reconstruction by the method of single-exposure random-conical tilt series.A sample of native hemocyanin, prepared with the double layer negative staining technique, was observed by transmisson electron microscopy under low-dose conditions. Six 3D-reconstructions were carried out indenpendently from top, side and 45°views. The results are composed of solid-body surface representations, and slices extracted from the reconstruction volume.The main two characters of the molecule previously reported by Van Heel and Frank, were constantly found in the solid-body surface representations. These features are the presence of two different faces called flip and flop and a rocking of the molecule around an axis passing through diagonnally opposed hexamers. Furthermore, in the solid-body surface of the top view reconstruction, the positions and orientations of the bridges connecting the half molecules were found in excellent agreement with those predicted by the model.

The characteristic flow behavior, time-averaged velocity distributions, phase-resolved ensemble-averaged velocity profiles, and turbulence properties of the flow in the interdisk midplane between shrouded two corotating disks at the interdisk spacing to disk radius aspect ratio 0.2 and rotation Reynolds number 3.01 × 105 were experimentally studied by flow visualization method and particle image velocimetry (PIV). An oval core flow structure rotating at a frequency 60% of the disks rotating frequency was observed. Based on the analysis of relative velocities, the flow in the region outside the oval core flow structure consisted of two large vortex rings, which move circumferentially with the rotation motion of the oval flow core. Four characteristic flow regions—solid-body-rotation-like region, buffer region, vortex region, and shroud-influenced region—were identified in the flow field. The solid-body-rotation-like region, which was featured by its linear distribution of circumferential velocity and negligibly small radial velocity, was located within the inscribing radius of the oval flow core. The vortex region was located outside the circumscribing radius of the oval flow core. The buffer region existed between the solid-body-rotation-like region and the vortex region. In the buffer region, there existed a “node” point that the propagating circumferential velocity waves diminished. The circumferential random fluctuation intensity presented minimum values at the node point and high values in the solid-body-rotation-like region and shroud-influenced region due to the shear effect induced by the wall.

With rapid developments and advances in additive manufacturing technology, lattice structures have gained considerable attention. Lattice structures are capable of providing parts with a high strength to weight ratio. Most work done to reduce computational complexity is concerned with determining the optimal size of each strut within the lattice unit-cells but not with the size of the unit-cell itself. The objective of this paper is to develop a method to determine the optimal unit-cell size for homogenous periodic and conformal lattice structures based on the strain energy of a given structure. The method utilizes solid body finite element analysis (FEA) of a solid counter-part with a similar shape as the desired lattice structure. The displacement vector of the lattice structure is then matched to the solid body FEA displacement results to predict the structure’s strain energy. This process significantly reduces the computational costs of determining the optimal size of the unit cell since it eliminates FEA on the actual lattice structure. Furthermore, the method can provide the measurement of relative performances from different types of unit-cells. The developed examples clearly demonstrate how we can determine the optimal size of the unit-cell based on the strain energy. Moreover, the computational cost efficacy is also clearly demonstrated through comparison with the FEA and the proposed method.
