To overcome the problem, a reduced grid is introduced to LASG/IAP world oceangeneral circulation models. The reduced grid is implemented successfully in the coarser resolutions versionmodel L30T63 at first. Then, it is carried out in the improved version model LICOM with finer resolutions. Inthe experiment with model L30T63, under time step unchanged though, execution time per single model run isshortened significantly owing to the decrease of grid number and filtering execution in high latitudes. Resultsfrom additional experiments with L30T63 show that the time step of integration can be quadrupled at most inreduced grid with refinement ratio 3. In the experiment with model LICOM and with the model’s original timestep unchanged, the model covered area is extended to the whole globe from its original case with the grid pointof North Pole considered as an isolated island and the results of experiment are shown to be acceptable.展开更多

The general form of this Bateman transform in an orthogonal eurvilinear cylindrical coordinate system is discussed and a specific problem of physical feasibility of the obtained solutions, connected with their dependence on the cyclic coordinate, is addressed. The limiting case of zero eccentricity, in which the elliptic cylindrical coordinates turn into their circular cylindrical counterparts, is shown to correspond to the focused wave modes of the Bessel-Gauss type.展开更多

Methods: A 10 mm sciatic nerve defect was bridged using a chitosan conduit filled with 10 μl carrier-drug dilu- tion (10 pg/L CsA). In control group, the conduit was filled with the same volume of carrier dilution alone. The regene- rated fibers were studied 4, 8 and 12 weeks after surgery. Results: The functional study confirmed faster recov- ery of the regenerated axons in treatment group than control group (P〈0.05). There was statistically significant differ- ence of the gastrocnemius muscle weight ratios between treatment and control groups (P〈0.05). Morphometric indi-ces of regenerated fibers showed that the number and diam- eter of the myelinated fibers in CsA-treated animals were significantly higher than those in control group. In immunohistochemistry, the location of reactions to S-100 in CsA group was clearly more positive than control group. Conclusion: CsA loaded in a chitosan conduit results in improvement of functional recovery and quantitative mor- phometric indices of sciatic nerve. It is easily available with- out any complications compared with its systemic administration.展开更多

By constructing local coordinate systems near the unperturbed homoclinic orbit, Poincare maps for the new system are established. Then the existence of homoclinic orbit and the periodic orbit is studied for the system accompanied with transcritical bifurcation.展开更多
