The synthetic oligomers called nos right palindrome (RP) element and left palindrome (LP) element were inserted into nos.minimal promoter nos 5'-101 deletion mutant The activity of nos promoter was measured by studying the expression pattern of gene fusion between nos promoter and reporter genes such as chloramphenicol acetyltransferase and $\beta$-glucuconidase. Analysis of transgenic tobacco plane carrying transgene showed that the activity of nos minimal promoter activity was recovered by insertion of synthetic nos RP element. Nos RP element insertion of nos minimal promoter was induced by auxin, dithiothreitol, salicylic acid and methyl jasmonate.

A geometrical inverse heat conduction problem is solved for the infrared scanning cavity detection by the boundary element method using minimal energy technique. By minimizing the kinetic energy of temperature field, boundary element equations are converted to the quadratic programming problem. A hypothetical inner boundary is defined such that the actual cavity is located interior to the domain. Temperatures at hypothetical inner boundary are determined to meet the constraints of mea- surement error of surface temperature obtained by infrared scanning, and then boundary element analysis is peformed for the position of an unknown boundary (cavity). Cavity detection algorithm is provided, and the effects of minimal energy technique on the inverse solution method are investigated by means of numerical analysis.

Let $[n]=\{1,2,{\ldots},n\}$. A set ${\mathbf{A}}=\{A_1,A_2,{\ldots},A_l\}$ is a minimal cover of [n] if ${\cup}_{1{\leq}i{\leq}l}A_i=[n]$ and $$\bigcup_{{1{\leq}i{\leq}l,}\\{i{\neq}j_0}}A_i{\neq}[n]\text{ for all }j_0{\in}[l]$$. Let ${\mathcal{C}}(n)$ denote the collection of all minimal covers of [n], and write $C_n={\mid}{\mathcal{C}}(n){\mid}$. Let ${\mathbf{A}}{\in}{\mathcal{C}}(n)$. An element $u{\in}[n]$ is critical in ${\mathbf{A}}$ if it appears exactly once in ${\mathbf{A}}$. Two minimal covers ${\mathbf{A}},{\mathbf{B}}{\in}{\mathcal{C}}(n)$ are said to be restricted t-intersecting if they share at least t sets each containing an element which is critical in both ${\mathbf{A}}$ and ${\mathbf{B}}$. A family ${\mathcal{A}}{\subseteq}{\mathcal{C}}(n)$ is said to be restricted t-intersecting if every pair of distinct elements in ${\mathcal{A}}$ are restricted t-intersecting. In this paper, we prove that there exists a constant $n_0=n_0(t)$ depending on t, such that for all $n{\geq}n_0$, if ${\mathcal{A}}{\subseteq}{\mathcal{C}}(n)$ is restricted t-intersecting, then ${\mid}{\mathcal{A}}{\mid}{\leq}{\mathcal{C}}_{n-t}$. Moreover, the bound is attained if and only if ${\mathcal{A}}$ is isomorphic to the family ${\mathcal{D}}_0(t)$ consisting of all minimal covers which contain the singleton parts $\{1\},{\ldots},\{t\}$. A similar result also holds for restricted r-cross intersecting families of minimal covers.

In this paper, wavelet finite element model (WFEM) updating technique is employed to detect sub-element damage in thin plate structures progressively. The procedure of WFEM-based detection method, which can detect sub-element damage gradually, is established. This method involves the optimization of an objective function that combines frequencies and modal assurance criteria (MAC). During the damage detection process, the scales of wavelet elements in the concerned regions are adaptively enhanced or reduced to remain compatible with the gradually identified damage scenarios, while the modal properties from the tests remains the same, i.e., no measurement point replacement or addition are needed. Numerical and experimental examples were conducted to examine the effectiveness of the proposed method. A scanning Doppler laser vibrometer system was employed to measure the plate mode shapes in the experimental study. The results indicate that the proposed method can detect structural damage with satisfactory accuracy by using minimal degrees-of-freedoms (DOFs) in the model and minimal updating parameters in optimization.

In this paper we find a suitable bound for the number of commutators which is required to express every element of the derived group of a solvable group satisfying the maximal condition for normal subgroups. The precise formulas for expressing every element of the derived group to the minimal number of commutators are given.

In this paper, a novel tissue engineering scaffold design method based on triply periodic minimal surface (TPMS) is proposed. After generating the hexahedral elements for a 3D anatomical shape using the distance field algorithm, the unit cell libraries composed of triply periodic minimal surfaces are mapped into the subdivided hexahedral elements using the shape function widely used in the finite element method. In addition, a heterogeneous implicit solid representation method is introduced to design a 3D (Three-dimensional) bio-mimetic scaffold for tissue engineering from a sequence of computed tomography (CT) medical image data. CT image of a human spine bone is used as the case study for designing a 3D bio-mimetic scaffold model from CT image data.

In this paper, we first will show that for any space X and any Wallman sublattice $\mathcal{A}$ of $\mathcal{R}(X)$ with $Z(X)^{\sharp}{\subseteq}\mathcal{A}$, (${\Phi}^{-1}_{\mathcal{A}}(X)$, ${\Phi}_{\mathcal{A}}$) is the minimal quasi-F cover of X if and only if (${\Phi}^{-1}_{\mathcal{A}}(X)$, ${\Phi}_{\mathcal{A}}$) is a quasi-F cover of X and $\mathcal{A}{\subseteq}\mathcal{Q}_X$. Using this, if X is a locally weakly Lindel$\ddot{o}$f space, the set {$\mathcal{A}|\mathcal{A}$ is a Wallman sublattice of $\mathcal{R}(X)$ with $Z(X)^{\sharp}{\subseteq}\mathcal{A}$ and ${\Phi}^{-1}_{\mathcal{A}}(X)$ is the minimal quasi-F cover of X}, when partially ordered by inclusion, has the minimal element $Z(X)^{\sharp}$ and the maximal element $\mathcal{Q}_X$. Finally, we will show that any Wallman sublattice $\mathcal{A}$ of $\mathcal{R}(X)$ with $Z(X)^{\sharp}{\subseteq}\mathcal{A}{\subseteq}\mathcal{Q}_X$, ${\Phi}_{\mathcal{A}_X}:{\Phi}^{-1}_{\mathcal{A}}(X){\rightarrow}X$ is $z^{\sharp}$-irreducible if and only if $\mathcal{A}=\mathcal{Q}_X$.

We propose a 2D 'crack' element for the simulation of propagating crack with minimal remeshing. A regular finite element containing the crack tip is replaced with this novel crack element, while the elements which the crack has passed are split into two transition elements. Singular elements can easily be implemented into this crack element to represent the crack-tip singularity without enrichment. Both crack element and transition element proposed in our formulation are mapped from corresponding master elements which are commonly built using the moving least-square (MLS) approximation only in the natural coordinate. In numerical examples, the accuracy of stress intensity factor $K_I$ is demonstrated and the crack propagation in a plate is simulated.

Objectives: This study evaluated a range of fixation methods to determine which is best for the postoperative stabilization of a mandibular osteotomy using three-dimensional finite element analysis of the stress distribution on the plate, screw and surrounding bone and displacement of the lower incisors. Materials and Methods: The model was generated using the synthetic skull scan data, and the surface model was changed to a solid model using software. Bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy was performed using the program, and 8 different types of fixation methods were evaluated. A vertical load of 10 N was applied to the occlusal surface of the first molar. Results: In the case of bicortical screws, von-Mises stress on the screws and screw hole and deflection of the lower central incisor were minimal in type 2 (inverted L pattern with 3 bicortical repositioning screws). In the case of plates, von-Mises stress was minimal in type 8 (fixation 5 mm above the inferior border of the mandible with 1 metal plate and 4 monocortical screws), and deflection of the lower central incisor was minimal in types 6 (fixation 5 mm below the superior border of the mandible with 1 metal plate and 4 monocortical screws) and 7 (fixation 12 mm below the superior border of the mandible with 1 metal plate and 4 monocortical screws). Conclusion: Types 2 and 6 fixation methods provide better stability than the others.
