Summary: This article discusses the influence of structural relaxation on crystal nucleation process. It shows that structural relaxation has a significant impact on nucleation rate at low temperatures, leading to a continuous increase before reaching a steady state. The study also explains the alleged breakdown of CNT at low temperatures and reveals a significantly lower actual maximum nucleation temperature than previously reported values.

Summary: Porous MgO based ceramics were prepared using magnesite tailings, fused magnesia as main raw materials and soluble starch as pore-forming agent. Increasing the content of magnesite tailings can reduce the apparent porosity, increase the density and strength of the material, and increase the thermal conductivity.

Summary: Different kinds of porous ceramics were prepared using iron tailings and different additives as raw materials. The ceramics exhibited high porosity, compressive strength, and low thermal conductivity, meeting the requirements for thermal insulation. By adding silicon carbide, the thermal conductivity of the ceramics was improved with a slight sacrifice of strength. The mold-forming process significantly improved the thermal conductivity and reduced the cost of manufacturing.

Summary: This study investigates the effects of albite, K-feldspar, quartz, and muscovite on spodumene flotation tailings ceramics, as well as the corresponding crystal changes. The results show that albite and K-feldspar positively impact the strength of ceramic materials, while decreasing particle size of quartz increases the flexural strength of ceramics. Moreover, the melting of albite and the formation of eutectic phase from albite and quartz fill the pores between mineral particles, which are the primary sintering mechanisms of ceramics. Additionally, the sintering process involves crystal phase transformation of alpha-quartz to beta-quartz and de-hydroxylation of muscovite and kaolinite.

Summary: Porous ceramics were prepared using spodumene flotation tailings, kaolin and low-melting point glass powder, with pores formed by the chemical reaction of hydrogen peroxide. The addition of low-melting point glass reduced the sintering temperature, while kaolin allowed for adsorption of methylene blue. The mechanical properties and porosity of the ceramics were greatly influenced by sintering temperature and hydrogen peroxide dosage.

Summary: A simple strategy for preparing MgO-Al2O3-CaO-based porous ceramics (MACPC) with high strength and ultralow thermal conductivity using phosphorus tailings as raw material is proposed. The effects of phosphorus tailings content, carbon black addition, and heat treatment temperature on the properties of MACPC are investigated. The results show that MACPC with excellent comprehensive properties can be achieved by adding 60 wt% phosphorus tailings and 40 wt% alumina.

Summary: The effect of temperature, foaming agent, fluxing agent, Al2O3 and CaO content on the pore structure and crystal phase of low-cost thermal insulation porous ceramics were investigated. The results showed that Ca2+ could accelerate the Si-O bond fracture, reduce the sintering temperature, and promote the formation of porous ceramics with uniform pore size distribution. However, excessive Ca2+ content led to the merging and collapse of pores. Adding diopside and augite improved the compressive strength of the porous products.

Summary: The effects of porous carbon-fiber-reinforced carbon-matrix ceramics (C/C) on the stability of second-mode waves on a 7 degrees-half-angle cone were investigated. It was found that the effectiveness of a porous C/C surface decreases with static pressure, and its presence reduces the growth rates in unstable regions and increases the attenuation rates in stable regions.

A new method for comparing ethane recovery processes for lean gas is proposed, and the addition of extra coolers improves the ethane recovery. The support vector regression model based on grey wolf optimization demonstrates the highest prediction accuracy, and the multiobjective multiverse optimization algorithm shows the best optimization performance and diversity in the solutions.

Summary: The paper proposes a novel deep learning-based prediction framework, aTCN-LSTM, for accurate cooling load predictions. The framework utilizes a gate-controlled multi-head temporal convolutional network and a sparse probabilistic self-attention mechanism with a bidirectional long short-term memory network to capture both temporal and long-term dependencies in the cooling load sequences. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed method, which can serve as an effective guide for HVAC chiller scheduling and demand management initiatives.

Summary: This study uses survey data from the Loess Plateau in China to evaluate the impact of social interaction on the adoption of soil and water conservation (SWC) technology by farmers. The study finds that social interaction increases the likelihood of farmers adopting SWC, and internet use moderates this effect. The positive impact of social interaction on SWC adoption is more pronounced for farmers in larger villages and those who join cooperative societies.
