Summary: This paper proposes a new mixed staggered-grid finite-difference scheme (M-SFD) to improve the modeling accuracy and stability. By constructing the spatial FD operator to approximate the first-order spatial partial derivative, M-SFD achieves higher modeling accuracy and computational efficiency compared to the conventional scheme. The application of M-SFD in reverse time migration effectively eliminates imaging artifacts caused by numerical dispersion and improves imaging accuracy and resolution.

Summary: In this paper, an efficient and reasonably accurate program called FracCSM is presented for the numerical modeling of dynamic fractures in hydraulic fracturing operations. FracCSM combines the Integrated Finite Difference (IFD) method and Discontinuous Displacement Method (DDM) to simulate the initiation, propagation, and stress interference effects of hydraulic fractures. It also considers mass/heat transport inside fractures and frictional losses within the wellbore. FracCSM demonstrates sound accuracy in comparison with existing simulators and supports real-time simulation of fracture propagation.

Summary: We propose a robust and effective method for solving the biharmonic interface problem with discontinuities in both the solution and its derivatives. This method decouples the biharmonic equation into two Poisson equations and combines the method of difference potentials with finite difference schemes on regular structured grid to achieve high-order accuracy on nonconforming domains. Representative numerical experiments confirm the accuracy, effectiveness, and ability of the proposed method to handle problems with coupled equations.

Summary: The Keller-Segel model is a crucial tool for simulating biological processes, consisting of a reaction-diffusion-chemotaxis equation and a reaction-diffusion equation. However, most numerical methods used to solve this model lack accuracy in the temporal direction. Therefore, a high-precision and stable compact difference scheme is proposed in this study, which employs a fourth-order backward difference formula and compact difference operators for discretization. The proposed method is verified through numerical experiments, including finite-time blow-up, non-negativity, mass conservation, and energy dissipation.

Summary: The existing phase field model of polymer crystallization contains parameters that lack actual physical meaning. A new phase field model is proposed in this paper, which can simulate various forms of polymer crystals by adjusting the latent heat. The simulation results are consistent with experimental data and provide a theoretical basis for the preparation and optimization of high-performance polymers.

Summary: Vegetation is an important factor in controlling shallow landslides in vegetation-covered areas. However, existing infiltration process models often neglect or simplify the root system, making it difficult to capture the influence of root systems on shallow landslides. This study quantitatively investigated the root distribution and properties in a landslide-prone area in Yunnan Province, China. The results showed that the root distribution followed an exponential decay model and there were differences in physical and hydraulic properties between soil above and below the slip surface. The findings suggest that root distribution and resulting changes in soil properties can affect slope stability and induce shallow landslides.

Summary: This study developed a method combining seismic signal inversion and numerical simulation to provide comprehensive and accurate dynamic process reconstruction of the 2018 Baige landslide in China. The study found that the landslide was triggered by detachment of the weathered layer, with severe top fault segmentation, and comprised initiation, main slip, blocking, and deposition stages. Mutual verification of multiple methods effectively reduced inherent drawbacks and improved the rationality and reliability of the results.
