The Eigenvalue Problem for Caputo Type Fractional Differential Equation with Riemann-Stieltjes Integral Boundary Conditions by Wenjie Ma, Yujun Cui

“…In this paper, we investigate the eigenvalue problem for Caputo fractional differential equation with Riemann-Stieltjes integral boundary conditions Dc0+θp(y)+μf(t,p(y))=0, y∈[0,1], p(0)=p′′(0)=0, p(1)=∫01p(y)dA(y), where Dc0+θ is Caputo fractional derivative, θ∈(2,3], and f:[0,1]×[0,+∞)→[0,+∞) is continuous. …”

Experimental Study on Pile-Soil Interaction Response in Saturated Sand under Long-Term Horizontal Cyclic Loading by Lei Xing, Duoyin Wang, Li Wang, Meiling Fan, Lunliang Duan

“…In addition, the cyclic p-y curve obtained by the test is generally smaller than the p-y curve calculated from the API specification, and the soil near the mono-pile will settle with annular cracks under the cyclic loading.…”

The β-Lactamase Gene Profile and a Plasmid-Carrying Multiple Heavy Metal Resistance Genes of Enterobacter cloacae by Chongyang Wu, Chaoqin Lin, Xinyi Zhu, Hongmao Liu, Wangxiao Zhou, Junwan Lu, Licheng Zhu, Qiyu Bao, Cong Cheng, Yunliang Hu

“…The complete genome of the blaMIR-positive strain (Y546) consisted of both a chromosome (4.78 Mb) and a large plasmid pY546 (208.74 kb). The extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs) (blaSHV-12 and blaCTX-M-9a) and AmpC (blaMIR) were encoded on the chromosome, and the pY546 plasmid contained several clusters of genes conferring resistance to metals, such as copper (pco), arsenic (ars), tellurite (ter), and tetrathionate (ttr), and genes encoding many divalent cation transporter proteins. …”

Extensions of best approximation and coincidence theorems by Sehie Park

“…Then either (1) there exists an x0∈X such that gx0∈Fx0 or (2) there exist an (x0,z0) on the graph of F and a continuous seminorm p on E such that 0<p(gx0−z0)≤p(y−z0)         for all         y∈g(X). A generalization of this result and its application to coincidence theorems are obtained. …”
