Three-dimensional (3D) buffer analysis is among the basic functions of 3D spatial analysis, and it plays an important role in 3D geographic information systems. The rapid development of the 3D Discrete Global Grid System (DGGS) provides a new method for the 3D spatial analysis of geographic information. According to the spatial topology characteristics of the 3D DGGS and the concept of dimensionality reduction, a 3D buffer analysis method based on the spatial grid of the Earth system is proposed to solve the problem of the buffer algorithm of a space object being unsatisfactory at present. In this paper, we present a method to calculate the distance between cells based on the side length of the spherical grids according to the geometric characteristics of the grids. For the grids of a geographic object, we describe the Euclidean distance expansion algorithm and the radial elevation expansion algorithm that helped us to obtain its 3D buffer. Finally, in terms of algorithm complexity and visualization effect, compared with the traditional raster buffer algorithm, the method presented in this paper has lower complexity, an improved visualization effect, and stronger generality.

Spatial analysis is the core of the space information system and the key function, and also one of evaluation a spatial information system function of the strength of the important index. Buffer analysis is the basic functions of spatial analysis on spatial information system, and is the basis of many space analysis methods. Buffer analysis is to point to identify a geographic entity or space objects on its surrounding of adjacent sex or the effect and in its built around a certain width of the strip area. In this paper, buffer area analysis of the spatial objects and grid theory are explained. On the basis of above, the establishment of grid algorithm of spatial buffer area and its shortage are also discussed. Finally, it makes exploration to the method application of the spatial buffer area analysis and the aspects of port logistics.

In this paper, through the study of traditional light bus, found problems related to screening and using existing methods, bridge drive of light bus was designed. First determine the drive axle transmission ratio and reasonable distribution; secondly on the driving axle main transmission device structure and parameter design, including the design of main reducer, differential, half shaft design; finally completed the design of driving axle housing, in order to design the drive axle complete. And the use of traditional mechanical analysis methods of main parts of the driving axle ( reducer, differential, half shaft, axle and so on) for the strength analysis and calculation, including the gear bending stress calculation, strength check; gear contact stress calculation, strength check; half shaft torsional stress calculation. With the design idea and the design requirements of the rapid development, the three-dimensional design has become a necessary skill for designers, this paper introduces the basic functions of Pro/Engineer software and a simple application, and the design of the parts of the drive axle using the software.

Long-term research on various types of RNAs has led to further understanding of diverse mechanisms, which eventually resulted in the rapid development of RNA-based therapeutics as powerful tools in clinical disease treatment. Some of the developing RNA drugs obey the antisense mechanisms including antisense oligonucleotides, small interfering RNAs, microRNAs, small activating RNAs, and ribozymes. These types of RNAs could be utilized to inhibit/activate gene expression or change splicing to provide functional proteins. In the meantime, some others based on different mechanisms like modified messenger RNAs could replace the dysfunctional endogenous genes to manage some genetic diseases, and aptamers with special three-dimensional structures could bind to specific targets in a high-affinity manner. In addition, the recent most popular CRISPR-Cas technology, consisting of a crucial single guide RNA, could edit DNA directly to generate therapeutic effects. The desired results from recent clinical trials indicated the great potential of RNA-based drugs in the treatment of various diseases, but further studies on improving delivery materials and RNA modifications are required for the novel RNA-based drugs to translate to the clinic. This review focused on the advances and clinical studies of current RNA-based therapeutics, analyzed their challenges and prospects.

Abstract The reconstruction of past mortuary rituals and practices increasingly incorporates analysis of the taphonomic history of the grave and buried body, using the framework provided by archaeothanatology. Archaeothanatological analysis relies on interpretation of the three-dimensional (3D) relationship of bones within the grave and traditionally depends on elaborate written descriptions and two-dimensional (2D) images of the remains during excavation to capture this spatial information. With the rapid development of inexpensive 3D tools, digital replicas (3D models) are now commonly available to preserve 3D information on human burials during excavation. A procedure developed using a test case to enhance archaeothanatological analysis and improve post-excavation analysis of human burials is described. Beyond preservation of static spatial information, 3D visualization techniques can be used in archaeothanatology to reconstruct the spatial displacement of bones over time, from deposition of the body to excavation of the skeletonized remains. The purpose of the procedure is to produce 3D simulations to visualize and test archaeothanatological hypotheses, thereby augmenting traditional archaeothanatological analysis. We illustrate our approach with the reconstruction of mortuary practices and burial taphonomy of a Bell Beaker burial from the site of Oostwoud-Tuithoorn, West-Frisia, the Netherlands. This case study was selected as the test case because of its relatively complete context information. The test case shows the potential for application of the procedure to older 2D field documentation, even when the amount and detail of documentation is less than ideal.

AbstractIn this paper, by using the local one-dimensional (LOD) method, Taylor series expansion and correction for the third derivatives in the truncation error remainder, two high-order compact LOD schemes are established for solving the two- and three- dimensional advection equations, respectively. They have the fourth-order accuracy in both time and space. By the von Neumann analysis method, it shows that the two schemes are unconditionally stable. Besides, the consistency and convergence of them are also proved. Finally, numerical experiments are given to confirm the accuracy and efficiency of the present schemes.
