'Gluttony or sloth': critical geographies of bodies and morality in (anti)obesity policy

In many countries, obesity is high on public health policy agendas, and geographical research has begun to engage with obesity. However, obesity is a highly contested term, and recent debates about geographers' engagement with policy, and critical discussions of the presence of bodies in medical geography, bear great relevance for developing a critical perspective on dominant 'obesity discourse'. Through a critical reading of a recent UK policy document, this paper considers the presence of bodies in (anti)obesity campaigns, calling for a more critical approach to the medicalization of body size to be central to future geographical work on obesity.     

Trace element concentrations of soils, plants and waters caused by a copper smelting plant and other industries, Northeast Turkey

The study area is situated in a large agricultural field which produces tobacco, maize, and other yearly cultivated vegetables in Tekkeköy, Samsun (NE-Turkey). In addition, a significant part of this area to the north along the Black Sea coast is occupied by several industrial plants such as a copper smelting plant (KB?), a fertilizer plant (Tügsa?) and industrial park facilities (IPF). In order to reveal their environmental impacts, heavy metal analyses were conducted on soil, plant leaves and water samples collected within an area of approximately 30 km² around these plants. Soil samples within an area of 10 km² around these facilities are found to be highly polluted with Cu, Zn, Pb, Fe and Mn. Pollution occurs at surface and sharply dies out at 20 cm downwards in soil profile. Since the region is polluted mostly with base metals, the copper smelting factory appears to be the main source of pollution as it processes the massive sulfidic ores of the Black Sea area. Plants show Cu, Pb, Zn and Fe pollution around KB? and Tügsa? and Cu and Pb around IPF. Pollutants observed in tobacco (Nicotiana tobacum) are Cu, Pb, Zn, Fe and S; in maize (Zea mays) Cu, Zn and Fe; and in cabbage (Brassica oleracea) Cu, Pb, Fe and S. The analyses of water samples collected from the study area reveal that Pb and, to a lesser degree, Cu and Fe pollution stem from KB?; Cu, Fe and Mn pollution from Tügsa?; Pb and minor amounts of Fe and Mn pollution from IPF. Factor analyses from analyzed metals and anionic complexes in water show three distinct groups: (a) an association of heavy metals with Na, K and Mg referring to pollution and acid leaching of soil, (b) an association of NH4, Fe, SO₄, Cl and Br indicating agricultural pollution and sea-water invasion in land near the shore line, and (c) HCO₃ behaving in a different manner in heavy metal precipitation.     

使用点评数据探测城市商业服务设施的发展规律

大众点评网提供的商业设施及其满意度评价数据为城市商业设施的时空分布与发展规律研究提供了一个重要的信息源,它们来源于分布在道路两侧的商业设施。根据此特征,本文设计了一种基于道路网约束的反映商业服务设施与交通网络关系的密度计算方法,对点评数据中蕴含的设施空间分布、设施数量与其满意度之间关系进行了分析。它将商业设施在空间上的二维分布映射至一维的道路网上,更真实地反映了商业服务设施与所处交通环境的影响,揭示了商业服务设施位置、数量及其满意度之间的关系,为城市规划的定量化研究提供了数值依据。

基于多小波的医学图像阈值分割算法研究

图像分割技术是医学图像处理和分析中的关键技术。本文通过构造一个正交多小波,把图像在尺度空间展开,对不同分辨级下的小波系数采用不同阈值进行分割处理。应用自动和交互相结合的分割方法,通过对目标区域图像特征进行分析,交互确定目标区域的大致灰度范围。在综合考虑图像的边缘和区域的基础上,确定精确的阈值,将目标组织从背景中分割出来。通过对计算机断层扫描医学图像进行分割处理和对比实验,得到的图像清晰度明显提高,证明该方法不仅能得到较清晰的感兴趣区域,而且还能获得较清晰的边缘特征。     

撞击载荷作用下水下沉箱防护设施损伤分析

面对通航区很可能发生的船舶抛锚、落物以及沉船等事故造成的危险,使用新型沉箱防护设施对水下生产系统进行安全防护,但目前撞击载荷下沉箱防护设施的安全评估标准并无明确界定。采用有限元方法对水下生产系统沉箱安全防护设施的撞击损伤进行了深入研究,考虑不同落物形状、下落速度、落物质量、碰撞位置对沉箱防护设施撞击损伤的影响。结果表明,锚、长方体落物对沉箱撞击最严重;撞击速度和落物质量与撞击应力成正比;对于非对称开孔的沉箱顶盖,距离开孔较近区域为应力敏感区,受到撞击时撞击应力较大。
