Comparison between a phenomenological approach and a morphoelasticity approach regarding the displacement of extracellular matrix
Plastic (permanent) deformations were earlier, modeled by a phenomenological model in Peng and Vermolen (Biomech Model Mechanobiol 19(6):2525–2551, 2020). In this manusctipt, we consider a more physics-based formulation that is based on morphoelasticity. We firstly introduce the morphoelasticity approach and investigate the impact of various input variables on the output parameters by sensitivity analysis. A comparison of both model formulations shows that both models give similar computational results. Furthermore, we carry out Monte Carlo simulations of the skin contraction model containing the morphoelasticity approach. Most statistical correlations from the two models are similar, however, the impact of the collagen density on the severeness of contraction is larger for the morphoelasticity model than for the phenomenological model.Numerical Analysi
Design and implementation of TAO DAQ system
PurposeThe Taishan Antineutrino Observatory (TAO) is a satellite experiment of the Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO), also known as JUNO-TAO. Located close to one of the reactors of the Taishan Nuclear Power Plant, TAO will measure the antineutrino energy spectrum precisely as a reference spectrum for JUNO. The data acquisition (DAQ) system is designed to acquire data from the TAO readout electronics and process it with software trigger and data compression algorithms. The data storage bandwidth is limited by the onsite network to be less than 100 Mb/s.MethodsThe system is designed based on a distributed architecture, with fully decoupled modules to facilitate customized design and implementation. It is divided into two main components: the data flow system and the online software. The online software serves as the foundation, providing the electronics configuration, the process management, the run control, and the information sharing. The data flow system facilitates continuous data acquisition from various electronic boards or trigger systems, assembles and processes raw data, and ultimately stores it on the disk.ResultsThe core functionality of the system has been designed and developed. The usability of the data flow system interface and the software trigger results have been verified during the pre-installation testing phase.ConclusionThe DAQ system has been deployed for the TAO experiment. It has also successfully been applied to the integration test of the detector and electronics prototypes
[[alternative]]The study of the ocean sport’s attraction, service quality and behavioral consequences in Peng-hu
[[abstract]]The main purpose of this study were to explore the relations between the ocean sport’s attraction, service quality and behavioral consequences in Peng-hu. The researcher applied the questionnaire of “the ocean sport’s attraction, service quality and behavioral consequences in Peng-hu “ and I drew 500 visitors as the research samples who participated in ocean sports in Peng-hu during August and September in 2005. The data collected from valid questionnaires were analyzed by descriptive statistics, Pearson’s product moment correlation, stepwise multiple regression analysis and canonical correlation analysis. The results are as followed:
1. The ocean sports in Peng-hu attracted visitors to a certain degree and the whole service quality is comfortable to them.
2. The relationship between the ocean sport’s attraction and service quality in Peng-hu was positive to a certain degree, and the higher service quality is, the greater ocean sport’s attraction in Peng-hu is.
3. Within each factors of the ocean sport’s attraction and the service quality, “the specialty of designing activity “and “the comfort of the environment “ had the best prediction to the loyalty of behavioral consequences; “advertisement and spread of the main activity” and “personal requirement” explain “better than any other factors.
4. The canonical correlation analysis of the study was the ocean sport’s attraction and service quality in Peng-hu have a high and positive correlation with the loyalty of behavioral consequences; the ocean sport’s attraction in Peng-hu has a moderate and positive correlation with the tendency of complaint of behavioral consequences.
Based on the results, we suggest the related organizations should:(1)strengthen the diversity of activity and develop package route of travel;(2)enforce the communication of information and promote the quality of complementary service;(3)integrate the resources and set up conservation area to build the continuous managing mold of ocean sport’s tourism.
For further research in the future: incorporate the follow-up issue of ocean sport’s tourism with profound interview and pay equal attention to qualitative research and quantitative research. Extending the subjects to related organization administrators、managers and dealers、local people and foreign tourist etc. and proceeding a comprehensive research.

Distribution. China (Guangxi), India, Vietnam. Remarks. This species was formerly attributed to Changa as the type species by Lee (2016), and the same author synonymized H. stellata Lee, 2009 with Changa sita (Distant, 1881) (Lee, 2016). In the present paper, we remove it to Haphsa based on morphological characterization and phylogenetic analysis (Fig. 4). Lee (2016) also transferred H. jsguillotsi (Boulard, 2005) to Changa, but we confirm it is a member of Haphsa (see below). Accordingly, Changa Lee, 2016 syn. n. is synonymized with Haphsa.Published as part of Wang, Siyue, Peng, Xiaodong & Wei, Cong, 2021, A review of the cicada genus Haphsa Distant, 1905 with the description of one new species from China (Hemiptera: Cicadidae) and a phylogenetic analysis of Haphsa and its allies, pp. 523-538 in Zootaxa 4991 (3) on page 530, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4991.3.5, http://zenodo.org/record/504258
Right Turn, Left Turn Rethinking Chinese Christianity from 1945 to 1949 in the Spirit of the Second Vatican Council
What is the Catholic Church's attitude toward socialism and communism? This is a historical question in that the answer changed over time. Drawing on the readings of the essays that appeared in the Catholic journal Yishi zhoukan ((sic) World Benefit Weekly), published in 1940s China, this article offers a special case with which the author wishes to shed light on the question. These essays reveal that at the historical juncture when, or right before, China fell to communist rule in 1949, the Chinese Catholic Church was showing a strong anticommunist stance, more so than its counterparts' in Europe, either in the past or at the time.http://gateway.webofknowledge.com/gateway/Gateway.cgi?GWVersion=2&SrcApp=PARTNER_APP&SrcAuth=LinksAMR&KeyUT=WOS:000319282700005&DestLinkType=FullRecord&DestApp=ALL_WOS&UsrCustomerID=8e1609b174ce4e31116a60747a720701HistoryAsian StudiesA&HCI0ARTICLE288-1044
[[alternative]]The Adjustability of International Marriage in Peng-Hu County Comparison with Indonesian and Vietnamese Brides
[[abstract]]During the whole composing process of marriage, different races will broke out tough problems in adjustability. Since the influence of varied language and culture, it is difficult to adjust to each international marriage. Due to the developing imbalance in Peng-Hu, amounts of males lose their marriage. Under this serious marriage squeezing, they have no option but to elect international marriage matching center. They must look for their brides from Indonesia and Vietnam by this way. While immigrating to Peng-Hu, the diversity between immigratory and emigratory area, results in different obvious concepts in adjustability in their life. In this matching cooperation, however, causes a lot of leaving problems. Matching Centers match so many couples, maybe at first they really desire to match a great marriage. But in the end, they simply consider about if they could receive the high profit or not. Certainly, they play important roles between these international marriages. After entering the immigratory place, how to adjust and communicate with local citizen, it is worthy to be thought deeply about.
