Findings from this study include： severely damaged dams were densely distributed along the seismologic fault; small dams, especially small earth-rock dams, had the most serious damage that was caused by a variety of factors; the most serious damage was caused by seismic waves; damage was aggregated by aftershocks; and the extent of the damage patterns increased with the seismic intensity. Damage patterns varied in different intensity zones and cracking was the most common type of damage. Most of the dams had a good base with relatively high bearing capacity, and the walls of the earth-rock dams were mostly of clay soil. This type of base and body material mitigated some of the damage to dams. Reservoir maintenance and other factors also have a significant impact on the seismic safety of the dam. Finally, some recommendations to reduce seismic damage to dams are proposed.展开更多

文摘Based on raw data from dams damaged in the Wenchuan earthquake, including many that were severely damaged, characteristics and factors that influenced the damage are discussed in this paper. Findings from this study include： severely damaged dams were densely distributed along the seismologic fault; small dams, especially small earth-rock dams, had the most serious damage that was caused by a variety of factors; the most serious damage was caused by seismic waves; damage was aggregated by aftershocks; and the extent of the damage patterns increased with the seismic intensity. Damage patterns varied in different intensity zones and cracking was the most common type of damage. Most of the dams had a good base with relatively high bearing capacity, and the walls of the earth-rock dams were mostly of clay soil. This type of base and body material mitigated some of the damage to dams. Reservoir maintenance and other factors also have a significant impact on the seismic safety of the dam. Finally, some recommendations to reduce seismic damage to dams are proposed.
文摘BACKGROUND At present,the influencing factors of social function in patients with residual depressive symptoms are still unclear.Residual depressive symptoms are highly harmful,leading to low mood in patients,affecting work and interpersonal communication,increasing the risk of recurrence,and adding to the burden on families.Studying the influencing factors of their social function is of great significance.AIM To explore the social function score and its influencing factors in patients with residual depressive symptoms.METHODS This observational study surveyed patients with residual depressive symptoms(case group)and healthy patients undergoing physical examinations(control group).Participants were admitted between January 2022 and December 2023.Social functioning was assessed using the Sheehan Disability Scale(SDS),and scores were compared between groups.Factors influencing SDS scores in patients with residual depressive symptoms were analyzed by applying multiple linear regression while using the receiver operating characteristic curve,and these RESULTS The SDS scores of the 158 patients with depressive symptoms were 11.48±3.26.Compared with the control group,the SDS scores and all items in the case group were higher.SDS scores were higher in patients with relapse,discon-tinuous medication,drug therapy alone,severe somatic symptoms,obvious residual symptoms,and anxiety scores≥8.Disease history,medication compliance,therapy method,and residual symptoms correlated positively with SDS scores(r=0.354,0.414,0.602,and 0.456,respectively).Independent influencing factors included disease history,medication compliance,therapy method,somatic symptoms,residual symptoms,and anxiety scores(P<0.05).The areas under the curve for predicting social functional impairment using these factors were 0.713,0.559,0.684,0.729,0.668,and 0.628,respectively,with sensitivities of 79.2%,61.8%,76.8%,81.7%,63.6%,and 65.5%and specificities of 83.3%,87.5%,82.6%,83.3%,86.7%,and 92.1%,respectively.CONCLUSION The social function scores of patients with residual symptoms of depression are high.They are affected by disease history,medication compliance,therapy method,degree of somatic symptoms,residual symptoms,and anxiety.

文摘Objective Accurately identifying the key influencing factors of psychological birth trauma in primiparous women is crucial for implementing effective preventive and intervention measures.This study aimed to develop and validate an interpretable machine learning prediction model for identifying the key influencing factors of psychological birth trauma in primiparous women.Methods A multicenter cross-sectional study was conducted on primiparous women in four tertiary hospitals in Sichuan Province,southwestern China,from December 2023 to March 2024.The Childbirth Trauma Index was used in assessing psychological birth trauma in primiparous women.Data were collected and randomly divided into a training set(80%,n=289)and a testing set(20%,n=73).Six different machine learning models were trained and tested.Training and prediction were conducted using six machine learning models included Linear Regression,Support Vector Regression,Multilayer Perceptron Regression,eXtreme Gradient Boosting Regression,Random Forest Regression,and Adaptive Boosting Regression.The optimal model was selected based on various performance metrics,and its predictive results were interpreted using SHapley Additive exPlanations(SHAP)and accumulated local effects(ALE).Results Among the six machine learning models,the Multilayer Perceptron Regression model exhibited the best overall performance in the testing set(MAE=3.977,MSE=24.832,R2=0.507,EVS=0.524,RMSE=4.983).In the testing set,the R2 and EVS of the Multilayer Perceptron Regression model increased by 8.3%and 1.2%,respectively,compared to the traditional linear regression model.Meanwhile,the MAE,MSE,and RMSE decreased by 0.4%,7.3%,and 3.7%,respectively,compared to the traditional linear regression model.The SHAP analysis indicated that intrapartum pain,anxiety,postpartum pain,resilience,and planned pregnancy are the most critical influencing factors of psychological birth trauma in primiparous women.The ALE analysis indicated that higher intrapartum pain,anxiety,and postpartum pain scores are risk factors,while higher resilience scores are protective factors.Conclusions Interpretable machine learning prediction models can identify the key influencing factors of psychological birth trauma in primiparous women.SHAP and ALE analyses based on the Multilayer Perceptron Regression model can help healthcare providers understand the complex decision-making logic within a prediction model.This study provides a scientific basis for the early prevention and personalized intervention of psychological birth trauma in primiparous women.
文摘Cross-border e-commerce,as a new form of international trade,has shown great development potential in the context of the“Belt and Road”initiative.Based on the cross-border e-commerce export data from 2015 to 2024,this paper analyzes the influencing factors of China's cross-border e-commerce exports to countries along the“Belt and Road”by constructing an econometric model.The study found that factors such as the perfection of digital infrastructure,the efficiency of logistics and transportation,the convenience of payment and settlement,and the penetration rate of consumers online shopping significantly affect the export scale of cross-border e-commerce.Institutional factors such as the development level of e-commerce platforms in countries along the route,market access thresholds,and tariff policies also play an important role.Based on the research results,suggestions are put forward to strengthen the construction of cross-border payment system,optimize the logistics distribution network,promote customs clearance facilitation,and deepen cooperation in the field of e-commerce,to provide references for promoting the development of China's crossborder e-commerce exports to countries along the“Belt and Road.”
文摘[Objective]The construction of weirs changes the hydraulic characteristics of rivers and affects the structure of phytoplankton communities and the health of aquatic ecosystems in the river.This study aims to explore the nonlinear response relationship between phytoplankton community structure and its driving factors in spring and autumn in Furong Creek under the construction of cascade weirs.[Methods]The structure of phytoplankton communities and related environmental factors were investigated in Furong Creek from 2023 to 2024.This study focused on the analysis of the changes of nutrient concentrations and biomass of phytoplankton in autumn and spring within the same dry season in Furong Creek.Redundancy analysis was used to identify the key factors influencing the structure of phytoplankton communities.The MIKE 11 model was employed to simulate the hydrodynamic changes in the river.Combined with total nitrogen and permanganate index,a GAM model of phytoplankton diversity index and hydrodynamic factors was developed,and the change of phytoplankton diversity after the optimized layout of the cascade weirs was fitted.[Results]The result showed that the annual average value of Shannon-Wiener diversity index of phytoplankton in Furong Creek was 2.79,which was in a state of mild pollution.A total of 239 species from 95 genera in 8 phyla were identified.Among the phytoplankton,Chlorophyta was the dominant group throughout the year in Furong Creek,followed by Bacillariophyta and Cyanophyta.The cell abundance of phytoplankton ranged from 3.11 to 20.64 mg/L and from 0.23 to 6.31 mg/L in spring and autumn,which indicated a clear seasonal succession of phytoplankton community structure.Compared with autumn,the relative abundance of Cyanophyta significantly decreased in spring across the whole river section,while Chrysophyta and Dinophyta showed significant increase at some monitoring sites,leading to water bloom phenomenon and a noticeable decline in the diversity of phytoplankton.The dominant species in the water bodies throughout the year were Cyclotella catenata,Chlorella vulgaris,Scenedesmus bijuga,Scenedesmus quadricauda,Chroomonas acuta,Cryptomonas ovata,and Cryptomonas erosa.Redundancy analysis(RDA)showed that hydrodynamic factors(v,h)and water environmental factors(TN,COD_(Mn))were the main influencing factors of phytoplankton community structure.[Conclusion]The result show that the nutrient concentration,phytoplankton biomass,and density in Furong Creek in spring are significantly higher than in autumn.The GAM model,constructed by combining hydrodynamic and environmental factors,can effectively reflect the nonlinear relationship between phytoplankton diversity index and its driving factors.In spring,with an increase in nutrient concentration,the habitat conditions of low flow speed and high water depths formed by overflow weirs will lead to a decrease in the Shannon-Wiener index of phytoplankton and an intensified risk of eutrophication.However,a reasonable layout scheme of cascade weirs will improve the diversity of phytoplankton and reduce the risk of eutrophication in the river.The findings of this study can help deepen the understanding of the ecological and environmental effects of cascade weir construction in the river.

文摘Recrystallization stands as an essential process that influences the microstructure and properties of magnesium(Mg)alloys,yet its mechanisms remain complex and multifaceted.This review explores the key factors affecting the recrystallization behavior of Mg alloys,emphasizing how their unique structural characteristics impact the driving forces and dynamics of recrystallization.Unlike conventional alloys,Mg alloys exhibit distinctive recrystallization kinetics,which is significantly affected by deformation conditions,such as strain rate,temperature,and processing methods(e.g.,rolling,forging,and extrusion).The process is also influenced by material characteristics,including initial grain size,texture,dislocation density,solute clustering,and stacking fault energy.Additionally,uneven strain distribution,stress concentrations,and stored energy play crucial roles in shaping the formation of recrystallized grains,particularly near grain boundaries.Notably,recrystallization is driven by dislocation accumulation and the availability of slip systems,with new strain-free grains typically forming in regions of high dislocation density.This paper synthesizes the existing literature to provide a comprehensive understanding of the mechanisms and kinetics of recrystallization in Mg alloys,highlighting the influence of microstructural features such as second-phase particles and grain boundary characteristics.It also identifies key challenges and suggests promising directions for future research,including optimizing material compositions and the interaction between deformation conditions via machine learning.
