Because of its importance, the human body has evolved barrier systems to protect CNS tissue from the external environment. This barrier is a membrane composed of tightly apposed cells and is selectively permeable to specific molecules by way of membrane transporters.展开更多

The seepage force was included in the upper bound limit analysis, and it was computed from the gradient of excess pore pressure distribution. The seepage was regarded as a work rate of external force. The numerical results of roof collapse in square and circular tunnels with different rock parameters were derived and discussed, which proves to be valid in comparison with the previous work. The influences of different parameters on the shape of collapsing blocks were also discussed.展开更多

By means of the combined-effect model proposed at earlier time, authors have deduced a formula of final rise limited by mechanical turbulence and therefore have concluded that the corresponding formula neglecting the accumu- lated effect of ambient turbulence is only its particular case. By analyzing the function relation of the various affecting factors with the plume rise in the existing equations, it is proved that the formula derived from the combined-effect model is the most reasonable and shows more conformity to the observations.展开更多

文摘The central nervous system （CNS） contains the two most important organs, the brain and spinal cord, for the orchestration of the mental and physical activities of life. Because of its importance, the human body has evolved barrier systems to protect CNS tissue from the external environment. This barrier is a membrane composed of tightly apposed cells and is selectively permeable to specific molecules by way of membrane transporters.
