Studies on the Tetraclitidae (Cirripedia: Balanomorpha); new species of Tetraclita from the Red Sea

The tetraclitid fauna at Elat, Israel, on the Gulf of Aqaba, Red Sea, consists of three morphologically distinct species. Tetraclita rufotincta Pilsbry, 1916 was reported previously from this region and may have been confounded with T. achituvi n.sp. and T. barnesorum n.sp. Although these species occur sympatrically, according to previous studies, and recent observations, they apparently occupy different levels in the narrow intertidal zone (=50 cm) of this area. Cirral morphology suggests that each differs in the manner by which they capture and manipulate prey. Little is known about the occurrence of these new species elsewhere in the Red Sea and adjoining Arabian Sea.

Adjoint algorithms for the Navier-Stokes equations in the low Mach number limit

This paper describes a derivation of the adjoint low Mach number equations and their implementation and validation within a global mode solver. The advantage of using the low Mach number equations and their adjoints is that they are appropriate for flows with variable density, such as flames, but do not require resolution of acoustic waves. Two versions of the adjoint are implemented and assessed: a discrete-adjoint and a continuous-adjoint. The most unstable global mode calculated with the discrete-adjoint has exactly the same eigenvalue as the corresponding direct global mode but contains numerical artifacts near the inlet. The most unstable global mode calculated with the continuous-adjoint has no numerical artifacts but a slightly different eigenvalue. The eigenvalues converge, however, as the timestep reduces. Apart from the numerical artifacts, the mode shapes are very similar, which supports the expectation that they are otherwise equivalent. The continuous-adjoint requires less resolution and usually converges more quickly than the discrete-adjoint but is more challenging to implement. Finally, the direct and adjoint global modes are combined in order to calculate the wavemaker region of a low density jet. © 2011 Elsevier Inc.

第一篇由中国作者正式发表的研究中国淡水藻类的论文——胡经甫的《藻类之研究》

介绍第一篇由中国作者正式发表的研究中国淡水藻类的论文及其作者。1916年,胡烈(即我国著名昆虫学家胡经甫)在上海博物学会编辑、上海文明书局出版发行的《博物学杂志》上发表了《藻类之研究》一文。对其学术价值和在中国藻类学上的意义进行评价。

云南及川西中心纲硅藻的研究

<正> 1914—1916年H.Handel-Mazzetti曾在云南的滇南、滇中、滇西北及四川的川西南广大地区采集了许多植物标本。其中藻类标本有92号,经H.Skuja于1937年进行分类研究后,首次发表了该地区的藻类,但中心纲硅藻仅有8种、4变种,隶属于4属、1科,1目。

谈谈藻类毒素

<正> 早在1878年就有关于有毒蓝藻使动物中毒的报道。廿世纪以来,产毒藻类引起人、畜中毒的事件在世界许多国家和地区均有发生。如1916年,在美国佛罗里达西海岸,许多人曾因甲藻中毒而出现呼吸系统的病状;由于供水系统中的藻类毒素引起人们消化道疾病的事例为数不少,Lippy和Erb 1976年报道的一起肠道疾病的暴发流行即是与水库中的一种丝状蓝藻——裂须藻的大量生长有关,毒性藻华造成鱼类和其它动物中毒和死亡,在经济上带来损失的事例不胜枚举。仅美国Storm湖因水华鱼腥藻毒性藻华使大量禽类及松鼠、狗、猫等动物中

Hybrid bulk heterojunction solar cells from a blend of poly(3-hexylthiophene) and TiO2 nanotubes

Hybrid bulk heterojunction solar cells based on blend of poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) and TiO2 nanotubes or dye(N719) modified TiO2 nanotubes were processed from solution and characterized to research the nature of organic/inorganic hybrid materials. Compared with the pristine polymer P3HT and TiO2 nanoparticles/P3HT solar cells, the TiO2 nanotubes/P3HT hybrid solar cells show obvious performance improvement, due to the formation of the bulk heterojunction and charge transport improvement. A further improvement in the device performance can be achieved by modifying TiO2 nanotube surface with a standard dye N719 which can play a role in the improvement of both the light absorption and charge dissociation. Compared with the non-modified TiO2 nanotubes solar cells, the modified ones have better power conversion efficiency under 100 mW/cm(2) illumination with 500W Xenon lamp. (C) 2008 Elsevier B. V.

一种针对弹性CA的分布式密钥产生方案

弹性CA是一种使用入侵容忍技术保护CA密钥的CA系统，它采用了新的私钥分割方法加强了系统的安全性，但其使用的密钥分发中心却不利于CA私钥安全．分布式密钥产生方案就是在传统的弹性CA方案的基础上取消了密钥分发中心，使用分布式的密钥产生和分割机制，从而保证了在CA初始化和整个运行过程中，任意t-1（t为门限值）台服务器都不可能窃得CA私钥，大大加强了CA系统安全．

Clathrate Dissociation Conditions for Methane + Tetra-n-butyl Ammonium Bromide (TBAB) + Water

Hydrate equilibrium data of the CH4 + tetra-n-butyl ammonium bromide (TBAB) + water have been measured by using the isothermal pressure search method for four components of TBAB aqueous solutions. The three-phase equilibrium lines obtained in the present study are shifted to the low-temperature or high-pressure side from that of the stoichiometric TBAB solution. Moreover, methane uptake into semi-clathrates is confirmed by a shift in the clathrate regions when methane is present. The experiments are carried out in the pressure range of (0.5 to 11) MPa and in the temperature range of (281.15 to 295.15) K.
