Modeling indicates that there is insufficient stretching with the net panel under the floatline in the prophase of the shooting process. Sinkers at different locations along the leadline descend successively after submergence, and the sinking speed decreases gradually with elapsed time until attainment of a stable state. Designs with different current speeds and sinker weights are executed to determine the dimensional shape and sinking characteristics of the net. The net rigged with greater sinker weight gains significantly greater sinking depth without water flow. Compared with the vertical spread of the net wall in static water, the middle part of the netting presents a larger displacement along the direction of current under flow condition. It follows that considerable deformation of the netting occurs with higher current speed as the sinkers affected by hydrodynamic force drift in the direction of current. The numerical model is verified by a comparison between simulated results and sea measurements. The calculated values generally coincide with the observed ones, with the former being slightly higher than the latter. This study provides an implicit algorithm which saves computational loads for enormous systems such as purse seines, and ensures the accuracy and stability of numerical solutions in a repetitious iteration process.展开更多

This fishery mainly consists of two components: longline and purse seine fisheries. Evidence of overfishing and stock depletion of bigeye tuna calls for an evaluation of alternative management strategies. Using an age-structured operating model, parameterize dwith the results derived in a recent stock assessment,we evaluated the effectiveness of applying constant fishing mortality (CF) and quasi-constant fishing mortality (QCF) strategies to reduce fishing effort of purse seining with fish aggregating devices (FADs) at different rates. Three different levels of productivity accounted for the uncertainty in our understanding of stock productivity. The study shows that the results of CF and QCF are similar. Average SSB and catchduring simulation years would be higher if fishing mortality of FAD-associated purse seiningwas reduced rapidly. The banning or rapid reduction of purse seining with FAD resulted in a mean catch, and catch in the last simulation year, higher than that of the base case in which no change was made to the purse seine fishery. This could be caused by growth overfishing by purse seine fisheries with FADs according to the per-recruit analysis. These differences would be more obvious when stock productivity was low. Transferring efforts of FAD-associated purse seining to longline fisheries is also not feasible.Our study suggests that changes are necessary to improve the performance of the current management strategy.展开更多

METHODS:The hospital records of 37 patients who underwent stapled haemorrhoidopexy between 2001 and 2006 were reviewed.The purse-string suture anoscope in the PPH kit was used on 15 patients(Group 1), and the modified anoscope was used on 22 patients (Group 2).Demographic characteristics of the patients, operation time,surgeon's performance,analgesic requirement,and complications were compared. RESULTS:Operation time was significantly longer in Group 1(42.0±8.4 min vs 27.7±8.0 min,P=0.039). The surgeons reported their operative performance as significantly better in Group 2(the results of the assessments were poor in ten,medium in four and good in one in Group 1,while good in all patients in Group 2,P<0.001).The need for haemostatic sutures was significantly higher in Group 1(six cases)and was needed in two cases in Group 2(P=0.034). CONCLUSION:Operation time decreased and thesurgeon's satisfaction increased with use of the modified anoscope,and fewer haemostatic sutures were required if the surgeon waited longer before and after firing the stapler.展开更多
