<P>Enormous Ly alpha nebulae (ELANe), unique tracers of galaxy density peaks, are predicted to lie at the nodes and intersections of cosmic filamentary structures. Previous successful searches for ELANe have focused on wide-field narrowband surveys or have targeted known sources such as ultraluminous quasi-stellar objects (QSOs) or radio galaxies. Utilizing groups of coherently strong Ly alpha absorptions, we have developed a new method to identify high-redshift galaxy overdensities and have identified an extremely massive overdensity, BOSS1441, at z = 2-3. In its density peak, we discover an ELAN that is associated with a relatively faint continuum. To date, this object has the highest diffuse Ly alpha nebular luminosity of L-nebula = 5.1 +/- 0.1 x 10(44) erg s(-1). Above the 2 sigma surface brightness limit of SBLy alpha = 4.8 x 10(-18) erg s(-1) cm(-2) arcsec(-2), this nebula has an end-to-end spatial extent of 442 kpc. This radio-quiet source also has extended C IV lambda 1549 and He II lambda 1640 emission on greater than or similar to 30 kpc scales. Note that the Ly alpha, He II, and C IV emissions all have double-peaked line profiles. Each velocity component has an FWHM of approximate to 700-1000 km s(-1). We argue that this Lya nebula could be powered by shocks due to an active galactic nucleus-driven outflow or photoionization by a strongly obscured source.</P>

<P>Cosmological simulations suggest a strong correlation between high optical-depth Lya absorbers, which arise from the intergalactic medium, and 3D mass overdensities on scales of 10-30 h(-1) comoving Mpc. By examining the absorption spectra of similar to 80,000 QSO sight lines over a volume of 0.1 Gpc(3) in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey III (SDSS-III), we have identified an extreme overdensity, BOSS1441, which contains a rare group of strong Lya absorbers at z = 2.32 +/- 0.02. This absorber group is associated with six QSOs at the same redshift on a 30 comoving Mpc scale. Using Mayall/MOSAIC narrowband and broadband imaging, we detect Lya emitters (LAEs) down to 0.7 x L-Ly alpha ' * a and reveal a large-scale structure of LAEs in this field. Our follow-up LBT observations have spectroscopically confirmed 20 galaxies in the density peak. We show that BOSS1441 has an LAE overdensity of 10.8 +/- 2.6 on a 15 comoving Mpc scale, which could collapse to a massive cluster with M greater than or similar to 10(15) M-circle dot at z similar to 0. This overdensity is among the most massive large-scale structures at z similar to 2 discovered to date.</P>

Rapid industrial and agricultural development has dramatically increased the emission of selenium (Se) and mercury (Hg) into the environment. Combined soil pollution by Se and Hg poses a potential threat to crop production. However, no toxic effects of Hg–Se interactions on plants have been reported previously. In this study, we investigated the effects of Hg–Se interactions on biochemical and physiological indices in the roots of Brassica rapa (LvLing). Seedlings were treated hydroponically with solutions of mercury chloride (1 μM), sodium selenite (4 μM), or a combination of the two. Combined Hg+Se treatment significantly inhibited root growth, reduced root biomass, and enhanced reactive oxygen species (ROS) and malondialdehyde accumulation and led to a loss of plasma membrane integrity. The combined treatment increased glutathione peroxidase, glutathione S-transferase, and peroxidase activity, reduced superoxide dismutase activity, and had no effect on catalase activity. In addition, we detected increased glutathione concentrations in root tips and reduced ascorbic acid concentrations in the presence of Hg+Se relative to individual treatments with these elements. Thus, Hg–Se interactions enhanced oxidative injury, cell death, and phytotoxicity in B. rapa roots.

Gentisic acid is a skin-whitening agent which inhibits the tyrosinase activity, an essential enzyme in the process of biological synthesis of melanin. Since melanin is synthesized in melanocytes located between the viable epidermis and dermis layer, drug amount delivered into the epidermis/dermis layer can provide valuable information for the biological effect of skin-whitening agents. The purpose of this study was to prepare the gentisic acid patches with 2% dodecylamine as enhancer, and to observe the in vitro skin permeation and in vivo skin deposition of gentisic acid. Gentisic acid in Duro-Tak 87-2510 patch formulation permeated across hairless mouse skin at the rate of 40.79㎍/㎠/hr. In vivo study showed that the gentisic acid amount in both the stratum corneum and the viable epidermis/dermis increased with the increase of application time. The amount of gentisic acid in the stratum corneum was higher than that in the epidermis/dermis layer, and was expected to provide a reservoir effect even after removing the patches. Thus, the patch formulation seems to be useful for the topical delivery of ski-whitening agent into the epidermis/dermis layer, the target site.

This study develops a novel reliability-based approach for the analysis and design of piles by incorporating Serviceability Limit State (SLS) requirements into Load and Resistance Factor Design (LRFD) for Ultimate Limit States (ULS). Three methods for reliability-based analysis and design, namely the Mean Value First Order Second Moment (MVFOSM) method, the Advanced First Order Second Moment (AFOSM) method, and the Monte Carlo Simulation (MCS) method, are employed for comparison. In order to expediently quantify model uncertainties for SLS and incorporate them into the process of reliability-based analysis and design of piles, the SLS model factor (or bias factor) is established based on a two-parameter, hyperbolic curve-fitting equation describing the load-settlement relation. Herein, the limiting tolerable foundation settlement (slt) is treated as a random variable. Four load test databases from South Africa presented by Dithinde et al. (2011) are compiled again to conduct reliability analysis and calculate resistance factors. The case studies illustrate that the AFOSM method has the higher accuracy than the MVFOSM method as verified using the MCS method. This study recommends the AFOSM method to perform reliability analysis and determine resistance factors for Reliability-Based Design (RBD).

A well-defined three-dimensional (3-D) reconstruction of bone-cartilage transitional structures is crucial for the osteochondral restoration. This paper presents an accurate, computationally efficient and semi-automated algorithm for the alignment and segmentation of two-dimensional (2-D) serial to construct the 3-D model of bonecartilage transitional structures. Entire system includes the following five components: (1) image harvest, (2) image registration, (3) image segmentation, (4) 3-D reconstruction and visualization, and (5) evaluation. A computer program was developed in the environment of Matlab for the semi-automatic alignment and automatic segmentation of serial sections. Semi-automatic alignment algorithm based on the position’s cross-correlation of the anatomical characteristic feature points of two sequential sections. A method combining an automatic segmentation and an image threshold processing was applied to capture the regions and structures of interest. SEM micrograph and 3-D model reconstructed directly in digital microscope were used to evaluate the reliability and accuracy of this strategy. The morphology of 3-D model constructed by serial sections is consistent with the results of SEM micrograph and 3-D model of digital microscope.

The aim of this paper is to present an approach for the assessment of the Serviceability Limit State (SLS) reliability of pile groups foundation combining the Ultimate Limit State (ULS) reliability method of pile groups. To this end, the linear relationship between the ULS and SLS reliability indices is presented using the formulas for calculating the ULS and SLS reliability indices of single piles. Meanwhile, the influence of system effects, correlation coefficient between pile group efficiency and system effects (ρζ,χ), and limiting tolerable settlement (Slt) on the SLS reliability analysis of pile groups foundation is studied using pile load test data compiled for illustration. The results indicate that both the ULS reliability index (βG-uls) and the SLS reliability index (βG-sls) of pile groups foundation decrease with ρζ,χ, that powerful system effects can enhance the ULS and SLS reliability of pile groups foundation, and that βG-sls increases with Slt. the reliability level estimated by pile load test data is equivalent to that incorporating the SLS requirements with a certain value of Slt between 15 mm and 25 mm. For Slt larger than this value, Reliability-based Design (RBD) of pile groups foundation will depend on the ULS requirements, but, conversely, RBD will depend on the SLS requirements.

The nonlinear loads exist widely in practical engineering applications. Due to the nonlinear characteristic of the loads, the nonlinear loads firstly need to be linearized to a resistor with constant value using the traditional stability analysis method based on the Routh-Hurwitz stability criterion and the method based on the stroboscopic map. In this paper, a novel stability analysis method is proposed based on the harmonic balance and Floquet theory for the inverters with nonlinear loads, which can present all characteristics of the nonlinear loads. In detail, the model of the inverter with nonlinear loads is established. Following, the approximate analytical periodic expressions of the inverter with nonlinear loads are obtained by using the harmonic balance method; and then, the stability analysis of the above inverter versus PI parameters is carried out according to Floquet theory. Finally, simulation and experimental results are given to verify the accuracy of the stability analysis method proposed in this paper.
