A study on the growth curve of and maximum profit from layer-type cockerel chicks

Attacks by adult stages of the soft tick Argas (Argas) neghmei (Acari: Argasidae) on inhabitants of the High Andean plateau of Argentina are reported. This is the first local report of this species, which was previously found in the north of Chile. Taxonomic differences between A. (A.) neghmei and other neotropical and exotic species of the genus are underlined. The status of the knowledge about the Argentine argasid fauna is briefly described.     

Coordinating Agents in Shop Floor Environments From a Dynamic Systems Perspective

In this paper, we address agent coordination from a dynamic systems perspective and propose a dynamic coordination model, which is inspired by biological metabolic systems. A new coordination mechanism through dynamic local adjustment (CDLA) is presented, and coordination is achieved when every agent utilizes explicitly the global system dynamics and performs iteratively a dynamic local adjustment procedure. The CDLA mechanism is investigated in an example multiagent shop floor system. The results show that the example manufacturing process is well-coordinated and the coordination approach is practically applicable and effective     

秦山核电厂气载放射性释放的环境影响

本文评价了秦山核电厂气载放射性流出物对环境的影响。应用现场及风洞大气扩释实验结果和厂址周围的人口与食谱调查资料,估算了秦山核电厂在正常运行和事故条件下释放的气载放射性流出物对公众产生的个人有效剂量当量和集体有效剂量当量。计算结果表明,正常运行时厂址边界(0.5km)处的最大个人有效剂量当量为2.7×10~(-2)mSv/a,该剂量的大部分来自~(137)Cs 的食入(主要由地表湿沉积引起);80km 范围内的集体有效剂量当量为1.1人·Sv/a,归一化集体有效剂量当量为3.7人·Sv/GW(e)·a。文中还给出了事故情况下剂量估算结果。     

陇上天路

如果说青藏铁路是一条“雪域天路”，那么宝鸡至天水高速公路就是一条“陇上天路”。宝鸡至天水是从关中平原到西北黄土高原的跨越地段，垂直跨度大，山连山，岭连岭，几乎看不到任何平原地段。作为2005年西部新开工的十大工程和交通部十二项示范工程之一，这条全长91公里的高速公路还要穿过甘肃屈指可数的林带，跨越黄河、长江两大流域，穿越甘肃最大的天然林保护基地--小陇山林业自然保护区、麦草沟自然保护区和麦积山国家森林公园。

Bone growth and bone development in the presence of implants or after induced leg-lengthening studied using the Oxford Scanning Proton Microprobe

To respond to varying environmental demands the bone tissue in the body is under continual reconstruction throughout life. It is known that metallic elements are important for maintaining normal bone structure, but their roles are not well understood. More information about the effects of metal excess or deficiency is needed to help in the development of metallic bone implants and to improve the treatment of bone fractures and defects. The Oxford Scanning Proton Microprobe (SPM) is being applied in two studies involving metal ions in bone: (1) bone regrowth and bonding to titanium bone implants may be influenced by diffusion of Ti ions into the bone. We are using microPIXE to determine the metal ion content of bone developing in contact with implants of pure Nb, Ti and Ti alloys. (2) Bone lengthening as a surgical procedure is induced by fracturing the bone and allowing it to heal with a small gap between the fractured ends created by the use of external fixators. The gap can be slowly increased during the healing process to stimulate the production of new bone. The enzymes and other constituents of the developing bone need certain metals for their function. Using experimental animals we have studied the concentrations of the metals and whether a deficiency of trace metals limits the optimum rate of bone lengthening.

Experiments of a prototype wind-driven reverse osmosis desalination system with feedback control

A prototype wind-powered reverse osmosis desalination system was constructed and tested on Coconut Island off the northern coast of Oahu, Hawaii, for brackish water desalination. The system has four major subsystems: a multi-vaned windmill/pump, a flow/pressure stabilizer, a reverse osmosis module, and a control mechanism. The feedback control mechanism, developed by this study, allowed this prototype system to be operated satisfactorily under mild ambient wind of 5 m/s or less. No auxiliary power source was needed. The system operational data showed that at an average wind speed of 5 m/s, brackish feedwater at a total dissolved solids concentration of 3000 mg/1 and at a flow rate of 13 1/min could be processed by this system. The average rejection rate of this prototype system was 97% and the average recovery ratio was 20%. The energy efficiency of the system was measured at 3 5%, which is comparable to the typical energy efficiency of well-operated multi-vaned windmills. Generally, the system's energy efficiency decreases as wind speed increases.
