Summary: In this paper, the authors propose a structure-context complementary network (SCC-Net) for human pose estimation, which consists of an enhanced attention mechanism and an atrous convolution-based module. The proposed modules, namely cross-coordinate attention bottleneck (CCAB) and waterfall residual atrous pooling (WRAP), improve the performance of body joint detection by addressing challenges such as occlusion and background confusion. The experimental results on benchmark datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed modules and the holistic SCC-Net.

Summary: This study further investigated the expression pattern and promoter characteristics of GhLAR1, a critical enzyme in the synthesis pathway of proanthocyanidins in cotton fibers. The results showed that GhLAR1 was strongly expressed in fibers and flowers, with significantly higher expression levels in brown cotton compared to white cotton. The GhLAR1 promoter contained light response elements and defense-related transcription factor-binding boxes, which may explain its response to temperature, NaCl, and PEG treatments.

Summary: Glaciers of different dimensions in the Karakoram region respond differently to climate change. The Open Global Glacier Model was used to quantify these variabilities in the Hunza basin and understand how glaciers respond to past and future climate change. The results indicate a negative mass balance and accelerated glacier retreat in recent years. Monthly glacier runoff is sensitive to summer temperature, but glacier runoff per unit area remains consistent across glacier classes. Future climate change scenarios suggest significant volume loss for small and large glaciers, impacting basin runoff. Immediate mitigation measures are needed for long-term water security in the region.

Summary: The influence of lignocellulose contents on the pore structure and distribution characteristics of porous carbon has been investigated. It was found that the microvolumes of ultra-micropores decreased with a decrease in cellulose contents, while mesopores followed the reverse trend. Carbon materials with abundant micropores and narrow mesopores exhibited better adsorption performance, while porous carbon with a hierarchical pore structure showed better regeneration abilities.

Summary: Coastal slope is a crucial factor in understanding hydrodynamic and morphological processes, estimating extreme water levels, coastline erosion, and coastal vulnerability. However, accurate estimation of coastal slopes is limited, especially in sparsely populated and remote areas. This study demonstrates the potential of ICESat-2 measurements to estimate coastal slope, with promising results obtained in Texas, USA. The improved accuracy of ICESat-2 derived coastal slopes compared to current large-scale slopes derived from other sources suggests the method's applicability at a global scale.

Summary: Between September 2011 and August 2018, a total of 133,131 acute diarrhoea cases were studied in Beijing. Out of 13,139 specimens collected and tested, 16.84% were positive for NoV. Three different NoV strains, GII.4 Sydney, GII.17, and GII.2, were predominant during different time periods. Excess cases of NoV-associated acute diarrhoea were observed during the predominance periods, ranging from 114.7% to 180.5% increase compared to baseline levels. This study highlights the impact of new NoV variants on gastroenteritis outbreaks.

Summary: This paper proposes a direct AC-AC modular multilevel converter called Hexverter, which is based on cascaded full-bridge sub-modules and is suitable for connecting two systems operating at different frequencies. However, the operating range of Hexverter is limited by the capacitor voltage of the sub-modules. To address this issue, a strategy based on optimal neutral voltage and circulating current is proposed to limit the capacitor voltage within a specific range and minimize switching loss. Simulation results confirm that this strategy effectively suppresses the magnitude of the capacitor ripple voltage and reduces switching loss.

Summary: This study investigates the effects of fibre concentration on the mechanical response of welded glass-fibre-reinforced polypropylene (GF-PP). Experimental observations reveal a significant reduction in weld ratio, up to 60%, indicating a decreased strength compared to the bulk material. Increasing fibre content in the welded material results in a decrease in stress at break and strain at the maximum stress. The use of DIC technique and X-ray microtomography further confirms the localized strain amplification in the welded zone due to the significant increase in fibre density.

Summary: The vulnerability of natural fibers to heat and fire poses a significant challenge for their substitution of traditional fiber reinforcements in composite materials. Natural fiber/polymer composites (NFCs) are regarded as potential candidates for engineering applications due to their environmental friendliness and low-impact sourcing. Thus, appropriate approaches need to be implemented to enhance the fire safety of NFCs. This review summarizes and discusses the latest understanding of flammability and thermal properties of natural fibers, with a special focus on their interaction with polymer matrix in fire behavior. Additionally, the latest developments in flame-retardant approaches for NFCs are reviewed, covering both flame retardancy and fire structural integrity. Finally, future prospects and perspectives on fire safety of NFCs are proposed, providing insights into further advancements of NFCs.

Summary: Real-time monitoring of carbon fibre composites during Automated Fibre Placement (AFP) manufacturing remains a challenge for non-destructive evaluation (NDE) techniques. This study designed a directional eddy-current (EC) probe to evaluate the detectability of out-of-plane wrinkles. Experimental evaluations and finite element modeling were conducted to better understand the relationship between eddy-current density and defect detection. The findings suggest that the probe configuration with an asymmetric driver coil and differential pickup coils shows the best capability for wrinkle detection.
