In order to study the mechanical properties of the ballastless track structure under the load of the train, this paper simplified the ballastless track structure to an infinite double-layer elastic beam. The double-layer elastic beam model and its theoretical expression formula was established using the elastic foundation beam concept. When the train was at a certain position on the rail, the differential balance equation between the rail and the concrete slab was established under the action of the vehicle load. Combined with the generalized “initial parameter method” and its boundary conditions, the analytical solution of the double-layer beam displacement and stress were obtained under the vehicle load. Through calculation examples, the displacement and stress of the rail and concrete slab were analyzed, and the analytical results were compared with the results of ANSYS, which proved the reliability of the analytical solution. Therefore, simplifying the slab ballastless track into infinite double-layer elastic beam is closer to the actual working conditions. The results can provide a reliable basis for the theoretical study of the ballastless track of high-speed railways and design reference for related projects.

In recent years, multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCTs) are very favorable to the adsorption of middle molecular substances in the hemoperfusion because of their multiporous structure, large surface area and high reactivity, which are beneficial to the excellent absorption properties. The purpose of this study was to study the MWCTs on the adsorption capacity of the middle molecular substances. Vitamin B12 (VB12) was selected as a model of the middle molecular substances. The morphologies of MWCTs and activated carbon from commercial "carbon kidney" were observed with scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The adsorption behavior of VB12 was compared to each other with UV-visible absorption spectra. The MWCTs formed a sophistaicate gap structure, and compared to the activated carbon, MWCTs had a larger surface area. By Langmuir equation and Freundlich equation fitting analysis, VB12 adsorption on MWCTs is fit for multi-molecular layer adsorption, and the adsorption type of activated carbon is more inclined to the model corresponding to Langmuir monolayer adsorption. The adsorption rate of MWCTs is faster than that of the activated carbon and the adsorption capacity is greater, which could be expected to become the new adsorbent in the hemoperfusion.
