Experimental conditions for respiration and growth studies of F0 and F1 larval and juvenile European seabass Dicentrarchus labrax
2022
Water parameters in the 2 years before spawning of F0 (08.02.2016-06.03.2018) and during larval and juvenile phase of F1: Larval period until 17.05.2018 (48 dph, 900 dd) and 01.06.2018 (63 dph, ~900 dd) for warm and cold life condition respectively, for the juveniles until 28.09.2018 (180 dph, ~4000 dd) and 12.02.2019 (319 dph, ~5100 dd) for warm and cold conditioned fish respectively. Means ± s.e. over all replicate tanks per condition. Temperature (Temp.), pH (free scale), salinity, oxygen and total alkalinity (TA) were measured weekly in F1 and monthly in F0; sea water (SW) measurements were conducted in 2017 and 2018. Water parameters during larval and early juvenile phase of F0: Larval…
Construction sequence analysis of long-span cable-stayed bridges
2018
Abstract In cantilever construction of long-span cable-stayed bridges the stressing sequence of stays is fundamental for establishing the final configuration of the bridge. The structural behaviour of these bridges is usually evaluated through a forward staged construction analysis, in which the values of the prestressing forces to be applied to stays are the main unknowns. A unified procedure for determining the initial cable forces and for analyzing the entire sequence is presented here, considering the geometric nonlinearity of stays through the Dischinger equivalent elastic modulus. The target is the simultaneous determination of the initial cable forces with the simulation of the const…
Comparative responses of ‘Gala’ and ‘Fuji’ apple trees to deficit irrigation: Placement versus volume effects
2012
Aims: Climate, soil water potential (SWP), leaf relative water content (RWC), stomatal conductance (gs), fruit and shoot growth, and carbohydrate levels were monitored during the 2008 and 2009 growing seasons to study the responses of 'Gala' and 'Fuji' apple trees to irrigation placement or volume. Methods: Three irrigation treatments were imposed, conventional irrigation (CI), partial root-zone drying (PRD, 50% of CI water on one side of the root-zone, which was alternated periodically), and continuous deficit irrigation (DI, 50% of CI water on both sides of the root-zone). Results: After each irrigation season, DI generated twice the soil water deficit (SWDint) than PRD (average of dry an…
Optimal Pre-Oxygenation: The Nasoral-System
1994
The human body’s intra-and extrapulmonary O2 reserves, i.e. the oxygen stores of the functional residual capacity (FRC) and the blood, will be rapidly depleted during any kind of respiratory arrest (apnea). Application of oxygen prior to iatrogenic apnea (e.g. for endotracheal intubation procedures), therefore, commonly is discussed [e.g. Miller, 1990] as the proposed measure designed to achieve an increase in the human body’s oxygen stores sufficient to avoid hypoxemia. This prophylactic application of oxygen simply has become to be termed “pre-oxygenation”, regardless of the amount of increase in the O2 stores actually achieved. A myriad of different techniques and procedures are practica…
On Approximation of Entropy Solutions for One System of Nonlinear Hyperbolic Conservation Laws with Impulse Source Terms
2010
We study one class of nonlinear fluid dynamic models with impulse source terms. The model consists of a system of two hyperbolic conservation laws: a nonlinear conservation law for the goods density and a linear evolution equation for the processing rate. We consider the case when influx-rates in the second equation take the form of impulse functions. Using the vanishing viscosity method and the so-called principle of fictitious controls, we show that entropy solutions to the original Cauchy problem can be approximated by optimal solutions of special optimization problems.
A strongly degenerate quasilinear elliptic equation
2005
Abstract We prove existence and uniqueness of entropy solutions for the quasilinear elliptic equation u - div a ( u , Du ) = v , where 0 ⩽ v ∈ L 1 ( R N ) ∩ L ∞ ( R N ) , a ( z , ξ ) = ∇ ξ f ( z , ξ ) , and f is a convex function of ξ with linear growth as ∥ ξ ∥ → ∞ , satisfying other additional assumptions. In particular, this class of equations includes the elliptic problems associated to a relativistic heat equation and a flux limited diffusion equation used in the theory of radiation hydrodynamics, respectively. In a second part of this work, using Crandall–Liggett's iteration scheme, this result will permit us to prove existence and uniqueness of entropy solutions for the corresponding…
Solution of a cauchy problem for an infinite chain of linear differential equations
2005
Defining the recurrence relations for orthogonal polynomials we have found an exact solution of a Cauchy problem for an infinite chain of linear differential equations with constant coefficients. These solutions have been found both for homogeneous and an inhomogeneous systems.
Systèmes hyperboliques d'équations aux dérivées partielles linéaires : régularité et matrices diagonalisables
2001
Resume La regularite des solutions d'un systeme d'equations aux derivees partielles hyperbolique, est liee aux proprietes spectrales d'un faisceaux de matrices reelles. Nous nous interessons ici a la regularite L 2 . Celle ci est obtenue si et seulement si l'exponentielle imaginaire du faisceau est bornee. Nous regardons le lien entre cette condition et les proprietes spectrales du faisceau, ici diagonalisable sur R . Nous donnons en particulier un critere d'exponentielle bornee si les valeurs propres ne sont pas de multiplicites constantes, et nous montrons que dans le cas des faisceaux engendres par deux matrices 3×3, l'exponentielle est bornee si et seulement si le faisceau est analytiqu…
In-situ gelling xyloglucan formulations as 3D artificial niche for adipose stem cell spheroids.
2020
Abstract Three-dimensional spheroidal cell aggregates of adipose stem cells (SASCs) are a distinct upstream population of stem cells present in adipose tissue, with enhanced regeneration properties in vivo. The preservation of the 3D structure of the cells, from extraction to administration, can be a promising strategy to ensure optimal conditions for cell viability and maintenance of stemness potential. With this aim, an artificial niche was created by incorporating the spheroids into an injectable, in-situ gelling solution of partially degalactosylated xyloglucan (dXG) and an ad hoc formulated culture medium for the preservation of stem cell spheroid features. The evolution of the mechani…
Full maxillary rehabilitation with an all-ceramic system
2009
With the appearance of all-ceramic systems, providing a choice of framework porcelains and allowing the same material to be used for the veneer, it is now possible to select the ideal structure in terms of both function and esthetics. Silicate ceramics allow porcelain laminate veneers and crowns to be used in the anterior region, providing excellent esthetics; while for the posterior area, where function takes precedence, oxide ceramics, specifically zirconium oxide, are preferred. The IPS e.max ceramic system, heir apparent to the IPS Empress 2 system, combines the advantages of zirconium oxide ceramics (IPS e.max Zircad) with the excellent esthetic qualities of silicate ceramics (IPS e.ma…
