Uptake of particulate antigenic matter, including microorganisms and vaccine-bearing microspheres, by the intestinal mucosa takes place in the domes of the gut-associated lymphoid tissues and is achieved by membranous (M) cells, which continuously transport particles from the lumen to the underlying tissue where some particle components initiate immune reactions. Using yeast as tracer, we inves...

Mons Rümker is a large volcanic complex in Oceanus Procellarum on the Moon and is a candidate landing site for China’s Chang’E-5 sample return mission. We conducted a comprehensive study of the topography, geomorphology, composition, and stratigraphy of the Mons Rümker region with multisource remote sensing data in order to better understand the geology of the region and provide further support...

A dynamical theory of geophysical precipitation pattern formation is presented and applied to irreversible calcium carbonate (travertine) deposition. Specific systems studied here are the terraces and domes observed at geothermal hot springs, such as those at Yellowstone National Park, and speleothems, particularly stalactites and stalagmites. The theory couples the precipitation front dynamics...

In this paper, optimal design of arch dams is performed under frequency limitations. Colliding Bodies Optimization (CBO), a recently developed meta-heuristic optimization method, which has been successfully applied to several structural problems, is revised and utilized for finding the best feasible shape of arch dams. The formulation of CBO is derived from one-dimensional collisions between bo...

We studied double superconducting (SC) domes in LaFeAsO(1-x)H(x) by using 75As and 1H nuclear-magnetic-resonance techniques and unexpectedly discovered that a new antiferromagnetic (AF) phase follows the double SC domes on further H doping, forming a symmetric alignment of AF and SC phases in the electronic phase diagram. We demonstrated that the new AF ordering originates from the nesting betw...

The special-shaped tank dome of a launch vehicle is large, thin-walled, curved structure that difficult to form using the conventional center-restraint spinning method. This study proposes two-step marginal-restraint mandrel-free method for forming large domes. finite element analysis results indicate larger roller fillet radius and feed ratios lead upper convex angle minimum thickness value bo...

Ethnomathematics is a mathematics learning approach with cultural media around students. Therefore we need the right in process to present that close student life so students have high motivation mathematics. This study aims determine of making mosque domes and ethnomathematics-based by modeling domes. uses qualitative research ethnographic methods. Respondents were dome makers, vault designers...

In this work we extended the study of genes controlling the formation of specific differentiation structures called "domes" formed by the rat mammary adenocarcinoma cell line LA7 under the influence of DMSO. We have reported previously that an interferon-inducible gene, rat-8, and the beta-subunit of the epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) play a fundamental role in this process. Now, we used a pr...

in this paper an intelligent method through general regression neural networks (grnn) is presented to estimate the depth of salt domes from gravity data. neural networks are as a good tool for automatic interpretation of geophysical data especially for depth estimation of gravity anomalies. the gravity signal is a nonlinear function of depth and density and the geometrical parameters of the bur...

  In this study two groups of dental study models were selected to evaluate the relationship between the tooth size, arch dimensions , and dental crowding. The first group consisting of 56 pairs of dental study models (28 males and 28 females) with normal occlusion ( without dental crowding) ranging in  age from 16 to 20 years, were selected among 4445 students from Kerman by multi stage rando...
