Sporocysts of Isospora endocallimici, a parasite of marmosets, were exposed to minimal essentials medium (MEM) or a trypsin-bile salt solution (TBS) and then fixed and prepared for transmission electron microscopy. Excystation occurred in TBS but not MEM. The sporocyst wall has 2 layers, a thin outer layer (15 to 110 nm thick) and a thick inner layer (65 to 180 nm thick), which is composed of 4...

Let us know how access to this document benefits you. The cavity modes of metal strip waveguide lasers are most simply expressed in terms of Airy-Hermite-Gaussian functions. The free space propagation of the resulting beam modes has been examined, and both near-and far-field patterns have been calculated and measured. Phase plates may be useful for enhancing the far-field intensity.

This paper is devoted to the buckling analysis of thin composite plates under straight single-walled carbon nanotubes reinforcement with uniform distribution and random orientations. In order to develop the fundamental equations, the B3-Spline finite strip method along with the classical plate theory (CPT) is employed and the total potential energy is minimized which leads to an eigenvalue prob...

A first prototype of a scintillator strip-based electromagnetic calorimeter was built, consisting of 26 layers of tungsten absorber plates interleaved with planes of 45×10×3 mm plastic scintillator strips. Data were collected using a positron test beam at DESY with momenta between 1 and 6 GeV/c. The prototype’s performance is presented in terms of the linearity and resolution of the energy

In order to get a more safety and economic foundation, finite element method was performed for piled mat cap strip by the software of STAAD. Through analysis, plate distribution region bending moment shear stress were researched; meanwhile, considering compatibility deformation plate, how chose design value researched. The result showed that: single is not representative, average 9 plates (3x3 ...

By the method of successive approximations (Schwartz algorithm) and Fourier integral transform, we construct a Green-type solution for an anisotropic strip with unloaded boundary. This is expressed in terms Lekhnitskii potentials isolated poles. On basis constructed solutions, deduce singular equations plates holes such that boundary conditions imposed on sides are identically satisfied. These ...

ABSTRACT This paper presents the theoretical developments of two finite strip methods (i.e. semi-analytical and full-analytical) for the post-buckling analysis of isotropic plates. In the semi-analytical finite strip approach, all the displacements are postulated by the appropriate shape functions while in the development process of the full-analytical approach, the Von-Karman’s equilibrium equ...
