    The influencing mechanisms of banded structure, nonmetallic inclusions and grain size on transverse impact toughness are systematically analyzed aiming at such problems as great fluctuation of transverse impact property and unstable low-temperature toughness of H beam SM490YB for ocean engineering. The Mn segregation and spheroidized inclusions are effectively inhibited, grains are refined as well as microstructure homogenization is realized through adopting such comprehensive measures as composition optimization, modified inclusions with Ca treatment, low superheat continuous casting as well as controlled rolling and cooling. The transverse impact energy at -20 ℃ is improved, fluctuation is reduced, banded structure is improved, spheroidization effect of inclusions are obvious and grains are refined for H beam with specification of H300×300 with treatment of optimum technology.

    The epoxy resin is with the characteristics of high specific stiffness and specific strength so that it is widely used in such fields as the aerospace, automobile, construction and electronics. Its main disadvantage is brittleness so that the bending property of composite using it as the matrix is reduced. It is one approach for effectively solving this problem to use nano materials as the filler of epoxy resin. Therefore, the effects of hybrid filler composed of metallic nanoparticles and inorganic nanomaterials added into epoxy resin on bending property of epoxy resin matrix are mainly studied in this paper. The Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) test results showed that the hybrid filler composed of nano-Ti, nano-MoS2 and carbon nanofibers (CNFs) was physically adhered with epoxy resin matrix so that the bending property of epoxy resin matrix was significantly improved. The hybrid filler is prepared with nano materials of four different weight percentages (2%, 4%, 6% and 8%). Among these, the enhancement effect of hybrid filler with 4% of nano materials on bending property of epoxy resin matrix is optimum. The morphology characterization of crimped section is carried out with scanning electron microscope (SEM). The synergetic enhancement effects of different metallic nanoparticles and inorganic nano materials on resin matrix are deeply analyzed in this paper, which is hopeful to provide guidance for improving the bending property of resin matrix composite.

    The rectification of audit is the “second half” of audit supervision in state-owned enterprises, the “last kilometer” to realize achievement transformation of audit as well as key link of maintaining the safety of state-owned assets and promoting high quality development of state-owned enterprises. In the paper, the prominent problems of ideological understanding, implementing responsibilities, mechanism construction, supervision collaboration and audit team construction in rectification of audit are analyzed by taking the requirements of closed-loop management system of auditing administration as guidance, combining with the regulations of Rectification and Implementation Measures for Problems Identified in Audit issued by the Audit Office of Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, basing on the characteristics of large asset scale, multi-level supervision, long business chains and great social responsibilities of state-owned enterprises as well as focusing on their actual situations. Moreover, the optimization strategies are proposed from such five dimensions as implementing responsibilities, perfecting regimes, enabling technologies, establishing collaborative mechanisms and audit team construction, which could provide references for state-owned enterprises to achieve the goal of “rectifying one problem, perfecting one regime and governing one field”.
