Analysing the shielding effect of a concrete wall reinforced with steel plate using generalised surface integral equations

The electromagnetic shielding effect of a two-dimensional concrete wall reinforced with steel plate is analysed using a generalised surface integral equation (GSIE) method developed from Huygens? equivalence principle. The wall is divided into small blocks. Each block is analysed independently at first, and its electromagnetic characteristics are expressed by an associated generalised transition matrix defined on the reference surface of that block. In order to find the electromagnetic characteristics of the whole system, a GSIE formulation is established on the reference surface of all blocks, which can be solved efficiently using characteristic basis functions.     

Studied on a novel human keratinocyte membrane delivery system in vitro

The culture of keratinocytes on flexible membranes has been proposed as a means to simplify, accelerate and improve the efficiency with which proliferating cells are delivered to full thickness or non-healing skin defects. The purpose of this article was to study the ability of chitosan-gelatin manbranes to facilitate the growth of human keratinocytes. The membranes with different chitosan contents were studied. The surface properties of chitosan-gelatin membranes were investigate by SEM, and water contact angle test. The mechanical property of the membranes was tested. Data implied that gelatin could make the membranes more flexible and hydrophilic than chitosan membranes, which may regulate the seeded cells behavior. Loading human keratinocytes on chitosan-gelatin membranes, cells attachment, spread, and growth were investigated by light microscopy, SEM, and MTT test. The results suggested that the adhesion and proliferation of keratinocytes seeded on chitosan-gelatin membranes were same as on tissue culture plate, in which gelatin could modify the interaction between keratinocytes and chitosan membranes. Therefore, chitosan-gelatin membrane is a good candidate for keratinocytes delivery system.     

Molecular Mechanisms of Parthanatos and Its Role in Diverse Diseases

Differential evolution of apoptosis, programmed necrosis, and autophagy, parthanatos is a form of cell death mediated by poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1), which is caused by DNA damage. PARP1 hyper-activation stimulates apoptosis-inducing factor (AIF) nucleus translocation, and accelerates nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD⁺) and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) depletion, leading to DNA fragmentation. The mechanisms of parthanatos mainly include DNA damage, PARP1 hyper-activation, PAR accumulation, NAD⁺ and ATP depletion, and AIF nucleus translocation. Now, it is reported that parthanatos widely exists in different diseases (tumors, retinal diseases, neurological diseases, diabetes, renal diseases, cardiovascular diseases, ischemia-reperfusion injury...). Excessive or defective parthanatos contributes to pathological cell damage; therefore, parthanatos is critical in the therapy and prevention of many diseases. In this work, the hallmarks and molecular mechanisms of parthanatos and its related disorders are summarized. The questions raised by the recent findings are also presented. Further understanding of parthanatos will provide a new treatment option for associated conditions.     

Recursive identification for Hammerstein–Wiener systems with dead-zone input nonlinearity

A new recursive algorithm is proposed for the identification of a special form of Hammerstein–Wiener system with dead-zone nonlinearity input block. The direct motivation of this work is to implement on-line control strategies on this kind of system to produce adaptive control algorithms. With the parameterization model of the Hammerstein–Wiener system, a special form of model estimation error is defined; and then its approximate formula is given for the following derivation. Based on these, a recursive identification algorithm is established that aims at minimizing the sum of the squared parameter estimation errors. The conditions of uniform convergence are obtained from the property analysis of the proposed algorithm and an adaptive setting method for a weighted factor in the algorithm is given, which enhances the convergence of the proposed algorithm. This algorithm can also be used for the identification of the Hammerstein systems with dead-zone nonlinearity input block. Three simulation examples show the validity of this algorithm.

非均匀介质透射波Goos-Hnchen位移的研究

基于不变嵌入理论,推导出电磁波入射到非均匀介质平板,反射系数和透射系数的耦合波方程;利用稳态相位方法,分析了透射波Goos-Hnchen(GH)位移的性质。通过数值计算,研究了入射角和介质厚度对透射率及GH位移的影响。结果显示,介质厚度一定时,透射率在特定角度具有极大值,对应的透射波发生负的GH位移,并且位移绝对值最大;入射角不变时,透射率和GH位移随厚度呈周期性变化,厚度增加,透射率呈下降趋势,但GH位移呈增大趋势。GH位移受入射角和介质厚度的影响很大,因此,可以通过调节厚度和入射角,获得合适的透射率和GH位移。
