Summary: This research aims to investigate the influence of high pressure water damage on the fracture performance of concrete under three-point bending. The results show that high pressure water damage significantly affects the fracture performance, resulting in accelerated failure process, decreased bearing capacity, and increased cracking susceptibility. The relationship between peak load, crack length, and water pressure is established, and the fracture characteristics of concrete damaged by high pressure water are determined using the double-K fracture criterion.

Summary: This study investigates the interaction mechanisms between hydraulic fractures and natural fractures in fractured reservoirs, showing that hydraulic fractures with incipient propagation superiority are more likely to rapidly propagate and inhibit the continuous initiation of surrounding micro fractures. Natural fractures can deflect the propagation direction of hydraulic fractures by shielding and transmitting induced stress, ultimately affecting the complexity of fracture networks and improving fracturing effects.

Summary: This paper studies the relationship between the water-conducting fissure zone and coal seam mining height, coal seam mining depth, hard rock scale factor, and working face slope length in the Yushen mining area. A method to determine the development height of the water-conducting fracture zone based on multiple nonlinear regression models optimized using the entropy weight method (EWM-MNR) is proposed. The findings show that the EWM-MNR model has better accuracy compared to other models, and it is used to predict the development height of the hydraulic conductivity fracture zone in the Xiaobaodang coal mine. The research results provide a theoretical reference for water damage control and mine ecological protection in the Yushen mine and other similar high-intensity mining areas.

Summary: A CPB06-based Stewart-Cazacu micromechanical damage model is successfully implemented and validated for Ti6Al4V material, providing accurate predictions for macromechanical material response and damage accumulation. The model is developed and implemented in Lagamine finite element software using a semi-implicit cutting plane algorithm and a suitable flow rule approach. Damage in the material is characterized by porosity ratio and modelled using void nucleation, growth, and coalescence mechanisms. The model shows strong predictive ability for the elastoplastic behavior of the material and good correlation with experimental observations.

Summary: This study investigates the effect of impact loading on the shear strength of rock discontinuities. Experimental results show that the impact shear strength is proportional to the loading rate and exhibits significant rate dependence. Moreover, the cohesion is clearly rate-dependent and the friction angle remains constant during impact loading, which is different from the behavior under static loading conditions. By establishing a shear strength criterion and a statistical constitutive model, the shear strength and shear damage of rough rock discontinuities under impact loading can be well predicted.

Summary: The shallow-layer resources in the Huanghebei Coalfield have been depleted and the deep coal seam of the Taiyuan Formation is the main continuous resource for mining. However, the exploitation of the lower coal groups is facing challenges such as high ground stress, high water pressure, high temperature, and strong mining disturbances, leading to a serious threat of water inrush. This paper proposes an evaluation method for controlling water rushing into the coalface floor based on grouting data and the use of ArcGIS.

Summary: This study investigates the influence of aridity on soil organic carbon (SOC) pools in grasslands. The researchers found that as aridity increases, both plant biomass and SOC decrease, but the root/shoot ratio increases. Wet grasslands primarily derive SOC from shoots, while drier areas derive it mainly from roots. These changes result in an elevated fraction of heavy C in SOC in drier sites, indicating increased stability. The findings have important implications for predicting steppe SOC stocks and their stability in the future.

Summary: A novel PSEN1 p.Tyr159Ser mutation associated with early-onset Alzheimer's disease (EOAD) was identified. The mutation caused a significant increase in the Aβ42/Aβ40 ratio and had a notable impact on PS1 maturation. Other mutations or SNPs in different genes may modify the effects of this mutation, and their identification could facilitate the discovery of AD-preventing mechanisms and methods.

Summary: Intermittent fasting is a common clinical treatment for obesity, but the underlying mechanisms regarding the aggregation of lipid droplets in the liver after fasting are unclear. This study found that a protein called Cidec is activated by AMPK to regulate hepatic lipid droplet fusion following fasting in obese mice. Fasting also up-regulated the expression of AMPK, which in turn activated the transcription of Cidec through PPAR gamma. These findings expand our understanding of the impact of fasting on obesity and provide potential targets for its treatment.

Summary: The gob-side entry retaining (GER) technique, a member of the pillarless coal mining system, is gaining popularity due to its high resource recovery rate and environmental benefits. The development of the modified high-water backfill material (MBM), which is mixed with aeolian sand, provides a cost-effective solution for coal operators in arid areas. The MBM exhibits high strength, adjustable setting time, and increased peak and residual strength with the addition of aeolian sand.

Summary: Optical techniques are limited by the scattering nature of light in biological tissues, but wavefront shaping technology offers a solution by compensating for phase distortions. This allows for controllable optical delivery or detection at depth by using scattering media instead of conventional optical components. Novel optical devices based on multiple scattering can outperform traditional components.
