The survey examined changes in the number of antenatal checkups due to behavioral restrictions, visit restrictions at medical institutions, and the acceptance of COVID-19-infected pregnant and nursing mothers. An increased burden was observed at delivery hospitals, irrespective of whether they accepted infected pregnant and nursing mothers. Some medical institutions were unable to manage infected pregnant women and transferred them to other facilities, highlighting the need for role-sharing among institutions. The number of antenatal checkups showed a decreasing trend, indicating that the pandemic negatively affected checkup attendance. However, no clear increase in perinatal deaths was observed during the observation period, despite the reduction in the number of checkups.展开更多

In the conservative treatment of HOA, self-management is important to manage symptoms and control disease progression. In a previous study, the researchers conducted a conceptual analysis of 43 foreign studies on self-management during conservative therapy for patients with HOA. The results revealed a definition of self-management during conservative therapy for patients with HOA. However, because that study analyzed only the foreign literature, it remains unclear whether the findings reflect the characteristics of the Japanese health-care delivery system, health-care insurance system, or the lifestyles and cultural characteristics of Japanese patients with HOA. Objective: We aimed to clarify the self-management behaviors of patients with HOA. Methods: Semi-structured interviews were conducted with five patients diagnosed with HOA, and the results were subjected to inductive qualitative analysis. Results: Six categories of self-management behaviors were extracted for patients with HOA: [active information gathering about HOA], [personalized pain and weight management, and strategies for reducing hip joint load], [reflection on living conditions with individuals and professionals, and determination for future efforts], [continuation of exercise and weight management based on personal strengths and achievements, and mutual support with others], [coexistence with HOA while managing negative feelings], and [choosing treatment methods by trusting doctors while struggling with personal needs]. Conclusion: These findings suggest the need to develop health guidance and educational programs for patients with HOA that focus on how to prevent disease progression and cope with symptoms.展开更多

The stability of such structures is influenced not only by the stress concentration caused by the cavities in the strata but also by the anisotropy of the layered rock mass. The interaction between them can lead to critical structural failure, such as rupture, collapse, or significant deformation within the adjacent rock mass, thereby jeopardizing operational safety. However, the coupling law and mechanism between the stress concentration resulting from the cavities and the anisotropy of a layered rock mass remain unclear. In this study, a uniaxial compression test was performed on shale specimens containing a circular hole to investigate the effects of layer inclination and circular holes on the mechanical properties, elastic energy storage, and failure behaviors of these specimens. The failure mechanism of the rock surrounding the hole was analyzed on the basis of the single plane of weakness theory and the Kirsch solution. The test results indicated pronounced anisotropy in the compressive strength, elastic modulus, and elastic strain energy of the specimens, with distinct “V”, “M” and “U”-shaped patterns correlated with varying layer inclination angles. In addition, the combined effect of stress concentration and layer inclination resulted in different failure types, which were classified into four groups according to their failure behavior. Theoretical analysis revealed that failure around circular holes in layered rock is affected by a range of variables, such as layer inclination, layer strength, lateral pressure coefficient, azimuth, and loading stress.展开更多

文摘Efficient lubrication of magnesium alloys is a highly challenging topic in the field of tribology.In this study,magnesium silicate hydroxide(MSH)nanotubes with serpentine structures were synthesized.The tribological behavior of AZ91D magnesium alloy rubbed against GCr15 steel was studied under lubricating oil with surface-modified MSH nanotubes as additives.The effects of the concentration,applied load,and reciprocating frequency on the friction and wear of the AZ91D alloy were studied using an SRV-4 sliding wear tester.Results show a decrease of 18.7–68.5%in friction coefficient,and a reduction of 19.4–54.3%in wear volume of magnesium alloy can be achieved by applying the synthetic serpentine additive under different conditions.A suspension containing 0.3 wt.%MSH was most efficient in reducing wear and friction.High frequency and medium load were more conducive to improving the tribological properties of magnesium alloys.A series of beneficial physical and chemical processes occurring at the AZ91D alloy/steel interface can be used to explain friction and wear reduction based on the characterization of the morphology,chemical composition,chemical state,microstructure,and nanomechanical properties of the worn surface.The synthetic MSH,with serpentine structure and nanotube morphology,possesses excellent adsorbability,high chemical activity,and good self-lubrication and catalytic activity.Therefore,physical polishing,tribochemical reactions,and physicalchemical depositions can occur easily on the sliding contacts.A dense tribolayer with a complex composition and composite structure was formed on the worn surface.Its high hardness,good toughness and plasticity,and prominent lubricity resulted in the improvement of friction and wear,making the synthetic MSH a promising efficient oil additive for magnesium alloys under boundary and mixed lubrication.
文摘This study aims to explore the characteristics of novice teachers’inappropriate behaviors in classroom teaching and their intervention strategies.With the continuous improvement of education quality,novice teachers face increasing challenges in teaching practice.Their inappropriate behaviors not only affect the classroom atmosphere but may also negatively impact students’learning outcomes.Therefore,researching the characteristics of novice teachers’inappropriate behaviors and their intervention strategies holds significant scientific and social value.This study employs a combination of quantitative and qualitative methods to analyze the behavioral patterns of novice teachers in classroom teaching and proposes corresponding intervention strategies.The results indicate that novice teachers’inappropriate behaviors mainly manifest as poor classroom management,monotonous teaching methods,and insufficient interaction with students.Based on these findings,the study proposes a series of effective intervention strategies,including enhancing teacher training,optimizing teaching design,and promoting positive interactions between teachers and students.The conclusions of the study not only provide practical guidance for educational practice but also point out directions for future research,emphasizing the crucial role of teacher professional development in improving teaching quality.

文摘A series of true triaxial unloading tests are conducted on sandstone specimens with a single structural plane to investigate their mechanical behaviors and failure characteristics under different in situ stress states.The experimental results indicate that the dip angle of structural plane(θ)and the intermediate principal stress(σ2)have an important influence on the peak strength,cracking mode,and rockburst severity.The peak strength exhibits a first increase and then decrease as a function ofσ2 for a constantθ.However,whenσ2 is constant,the maximum peak strength is obtained atθof 90°,and the minimum peak strength is obtained atθof 30°or 45°.For the case of an inclined structural plane,the crack type at the tips of structural plane transforms from a mix of wing and anti-wing cracks to wing cracks with an increase inσ2,while the crack type around the tips of structural plane is always anti-wing cracks for the vertical structural plane,accompanied by a series of tensile cracks besides.The specimens with structural plane do not undergo slabbing failure regardless ofθ,and always exhibit composite tensile-shear failure whatever theσ2 value is.With an increase inσ2 andθ,the intensity of the rockburst is consistent with the tendency of the peak strength.By analyzing the relationship between the cohesion(c),internal friction angle(φ),andθin sandstone specimens,we incorporateθinto the true triaxial unloading strength criterion,and propose a modified linear Mogi-Coulomb criterion.Moreover,the crack propagation mechanism at the tips of structural plane,and closure degree of the structural plane under true triaxial unloading conditions are also discussed and summarized.This study provides theoretical guidance for stability assessment of surrounding rocks containing geological structures in deep complex stress environments.
文摘To evaluate the impact of behavioral restrictions on perinatal care caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, we conducted a questionnaire survey of 1976 medical institutions handling deliveries across Japan. The survey examined changes in the number of antenatal checkups due to behavioral restrictions, visit restrictions at medical institutions, and the acceptance of COVID-19-infected pregnant and nursing mothers. An increased burden was observed at delivery hospitals, irrespective of whether they accepted infected pregnant and nursing mothers. Some medical institutions were unable to manage infected pregnant women and transferred them to other facilities, highlighting the need for role-sharing among institutions. The number of antenatal checkups showed a decreasing trend, indicating that the pandemic negatively affected checkup attendance. However, no clear increase in perinatal deaths was observed during the observation period, despite the reduction in the number of checkups.
文摘Background: Hip osteoarthritis (HOA) causes joint destruction, resulting in hip pain, limited range-of-motion, claudication, and joint deformity. In the conservative treatment of HOA, self-management is important to manage symptoms and control disease progression. In a previous study, the researchers conducted a conceptual analysis of 43 foreign studies on self-management during conservative therapy for patients with HOA. The results revealed a definition of self-management during conservative therapy for patients with HOA. However, because that study analyzed only the foreign literature, it remains unclear whether the findings reflect the characteristics of the Japanese health-care delivery system, health-care insurance system, or the lifestyles and cultural characteristics of Japanese patients with HOA. Objective: We aimed to clarify the self-management behaviors of patients with HOA. Methods: Semi-structured interviews were conducted with five patients diagnosed with HOA, and the results were subjected to inductive qualitative analysis. Results: Six categories of self-management behaviors were extracted for patients with HOA: [active information gathering about HOA], [personalized pain and weight management, and strategies for reducing hip joint load], [reflection on living conditions with individuals and professionals, and determination for future efforts], [continuation of exercise and weight management based on personal strengths and achievements, and mutual support with others], [coexistence with HOA while managing negative feelings], and [choosing treatment methods by trusting doctors while struggling with personal needs]. Conclusion: These findings suggest the need to develop health guidance and educational programs for patients with HOA that focus on how to prevent disease progression and cope with symptoms.

文摘Four powder metallurgy(PM)Ni-based superalloys with different Hf and Ta contents were creep-tested at 650℃ and 970 MPa,700℃ and 770 MPa,and 750℃ and 580 MPa,respectively.The effect of Hf and Ta on creep deformation behaviors of the superalloys was studied from multiple scales by SEM,electron backscatter diffraction(EBSD),and aberration-corrected scanning transmission electron microscope(AC-STEM).The results showed that Hf and Ta suppressed the intergranular fracture and initiation of cracks during the acceleration creep stage,which prolonged the creep rupture time.Hf and Ta inhibited the stacking faults extending and the dislocation climbing and promoted the Suzuki segregation of W during the steady-state creep stage,which reduced the minimum creep rate and delayed the start time of the acceleration creep stage.The Suzuki segregation of Co,Cr,Mo,Ti,Nb,W,and Ta along stacking faults was observed after Hf and Ta addition,leading to the localized phase transformation in the γ′phase,and the stacking fault phase was chemically disordered.This study provided ideas for the composition design of novel PM Ni-based superalloys and theoretical foundations for the combined addition of Hf and Ta.
文摘One of the core challenges faced by children with autism is repetitive motor behavior,which not only undermines their learning efficiency in the classroom but also makes it difficult for them to integrate smoothly into inclusive educational settings,thereby hindering their social adaptation and overall development.This study adopted a single-case design focusing on a first-grade student with autism enrolled in a mainstream class at Xiangxue Primary School,Huangpu District,Guangzhou.Functional behavior assessment was conducted to systematically observe and analyze the student’s repetitive motor behaviors in class,on the basis of which an intervention plan was developed and implemented.The intervention incorporated antecedent control,replacement behavior training,and consequence management,supplemented by collaboration between school and family.The findings indicated that the frequency of repetitive motor behaviors decreased significantly after the intervention,while the student demonstrated improved classroom participation and peer interaction;these positive effects were maintained during the follow-up phase.The study suggests that in inclusive education settings,interventions guided by functional behavior assessment can effectively reduce problem behaviors in children with autism and enhance their classroom engagement and learning adaptability.

文摘The precise mathematical method was adopted to simulate the breakdown process of 5 mm rod and plate electrode gap,which was filled with supercritical nitrogen at the condition of 127 K,4 MPa and seed electron density 1×10^(6) m^(-3) under 29 kV DC voltage.The result shows that the discharge process was completed within 11.8 ns from seed electron triggering,avalanche bulking to streamer extending until gap eventually breakdown.The entire gap breakdown process was divided into three discharge stages,namely,the initial discharge triggered(0-4 ns),avalanche(4-7 ns)and streamer phase(7-11.8 ns).At the same time,the facts were also revealed that the discharge evolution,electric field distribution,and electron density had different values,and also showed different temporal and spatial distribution characteristics along the axis of the discharge gap.Specifically,the discharge characteristics of SCN2 under 1,2,3,4,4.5,and 5 MPa at 127 K were theoretically analyzed respectively,and the microscopic mechanisms of the breakdown process were also detailed.The results indicate that the gas discharge law remained applicable within the 1-3 MPa range.However,the discharge characteristics of supercritical nitrogen at 3.4-5 MPa differed significantly from those at lower pressures,likely attributable to the unique state of matter exhibited by supercritical nitrogen.This study contributes to understanding the discharge mechanism of supercritical nitrogen and offers theoretical guidance for its practical application in the power industry.
文摘Unlike traditional literature where animals are often portrayed allegorically as mere symbols,in Pulitzer Prize winner Jane Smiley’s The Horses of Oak Valley Ranch series,the portrayal of horses underscores their distinct individuality and autonomy.Focusing on three novels in the series-A Good Horse,True Blue,and Pie in the Sky,this paper analyzes how Smiley crafts a narrative that resists anthropocentrism and validates the subjectivity of nonhuman animals.By examining the unique reactions of horses in various situations,such as their differing facial expressions before a jump,their various responses to feeding and grooming,and their individualistic moving behaviors,this study reveals how Smiley highlights the psychological and physical diversity within a single species.The horses’individual traits are portrayed not as mere animal instinct but as conscious,intentional responses that signify their agency.Drawing on Marc Bekoff’s defense of animal individuality,Val Plumwood’s condemnation of anthropocentrism,and Cynthia Willett’s critique of speciesism,the paper argues that Smiley’s representation of equine individualistic behaviors is an affirmation of the inherent subjectivity of animals.Through these detailed descriptions,Smiley challenges the Cartesian notion of animals as mere automatons and encourages readers to recognize animals as complex individuals.Ultimately,this study emphasizes the significance of acknowledging animal subjectivity in fostering a more ethical and harmonious human-animal relationship.

文摘This study focuses on the design and validation of a behavior classification system for cattle using behavioral data collected through accelerometer sensors.Data collection and behavioral analysis are achieved using machine learning(ML)algorithms through accelerometer sensors.However,behavioral analysis poses challenges due to the complexity of cow activities.The task becomes more challenging in a real-time behavioral analysis system with the requirement for shorter data windows and energy constraints.Shorter windows may lack sufficient information,reducing algorithm performance.Additionally,the sensor’s position on the cowsmay shift during practical use,altering the collected accelerometer data.This study addresses these challenges by employing a 3-s data window to analyze cow behaviors,specifically Feeding,Lying,Standing,and Walking.Data synchronization between accelerometer sensors placed on the neck and leg compensates for the lack of information in short data windows.Features such as the Vector of Dynamic Body Acceleration(VeDBA),Mean,Variance,and Kurtosis are utilized alongside the Decision Tree(DT)algorithm to address energy efficiency and ensure computational effectiveness.This study also evaluates the impact of sensor misalignment on behavior classification.Simulated datasets with varying levels of sensor misalignment were created,and the system’s classification accuracy exceeded 0.95 for the four behaviors across all datasets(including original and simulated misalignment datasets).Sensitivity(Sen)and PPV for all datasets were above 0.9.The study provides farmers and the dairy industry with a practical,energy-efficient system for continuously monitoring cattle behavior to enhance herd productivity while reducing labor costs.

文摘Based on a new bilinear equation,we investigated some new dynamic behaviors of the(2+1)-dimensional shallow water wave model,such as hybridization behavior between different solitons,trajectory equations for lump collisions,and evolution behavior of multi-breathers.Firstly,the N-soliton solution of Ito equation is studied,and some high-order breather waves can be obtained from the N-soliton solutions through paired-complexification of parameters.Secondly,the high-order lump solutions and the hybrid solutions are obtained by employing the long-wave limit method,and the motion velocity and trajectory equations of high-order lump waves are analyzed.Moreover,based on the trajectory equations of the higher-order lump solutions,we give and prove the trajectory theorem of 1-lump before and after interaction with nsoliton.Finally,we obtain some new lump solutions from the multi-solitons by constructing a new test function and using the parameter limit method.Meanwhile,some evolutionary behaviors of the obtained solutions are shown through a large number of three-dimensional graphs with different and appropriate parameters.

文摘Lycium barb arum,known as wolfberry or goji berry,is consumed by humans as a medicine and a food homology product.Conventionally grown wolfberry is often treated extensively with pesticides,which could pose a hazard to humans.Here,the degradation dynamics of dinotefuran and its 2 metabolites(1-methyl-3-(tetrahydro-3-furylmethyl)urea(UF)and 1-methyl-3-(tetrahydro-3-furylmethyl)guanidine(DN)),during wolfberry cultivation and processing was investigated.The half-life(T_(1/2))of dinotefuran was 11.36 and 9.76 days,respectively,under the recommended dosage and double the recommended dosage.During the oven and sun drying processes,processing factors(PFs)of dinotefuran were 1.07-1.34,implying the enrichment of pesticide residues.Decoction process made the removal rate of dinotefuran reach 87.48%,which is higher than that of the brewing process(14.7%),while dinotefuran remained in the wine with high ethanol content in the alcohol soaking process.The hazard quotient(HQ)of dinotefuran,as determined via dietary risk assessment combined with PFs,was<1,indicating an acceptable risk for human consumption.Bioaccessibility of dinotefuran in the three digestive stages were intestinal(18.20%-88.08%)>gastric(5.45%-86.72%)>oral(23.18%)via in vitro simulated digestive system.These findings provide scientific evidence for reasonable application and risk assessment of dinotefuran residues in wolfberry.

文摘Background Human behaviors and tumors go hand in hand.The wave of globalization has brought about a global homogenization of human behaviors,which further triggers a potential global human behavior-related cancer burden(HBRCB)convergence.Methods This study systematically evaluated the global,regional,and national metrics of HBRCBs over the last 30 years using data from the Global Burden of Diseases(GBD)2019 results and the WHO Global Health Observatory(GHO)data repository.Results The results showed the global remission and convergence of HBRCB in the last three decades and the foreseeable future(2020–2044).Overall,HBRCBs are decreasing with the global emphasis on positive dietary habits,safe sex,substance addiction withdrawal,and active physical exercise habits.Globally,from 1990 to 2019,with the development of social development index(SDI)level from 0.511 to 0.651,the HBRCBs had been decreasing from 1507.908 to 1145.344 in age-standardized disability-adjusted life years(ASDALY)and from 61.467 to 49.449 in(age-standardized death rates)ASDR per 100,000 population with changes of−24.04%and−19.55%,respectively.Meanwhile,the variance in HBRCBs among countries and territories generally showed a decreasing or flat trend.The variance of HBRCBs among 204 countries and territories in 2019–2044 decreased from 1495.210 to 449.202 in males and from 214.640 to 78.848 in females for ASDR due to all behavior risks,and from 911,211.676 to 317,233.590 in males and from 146,171.660 to 62,926.660 in females for ASDALY.The global HBRCBs was becoming more uniform due to the globalization of human behaviors.Conclusions This study revealed the significance of addressing HBRCBs as a uniform and continuous issue in future global health promotion.It also demonstrated the potential existence of a chain effect in global health,where globalization leads to human behavior homogenization,which in turn results in HBRCB convergence.Properly measuring the commonalities and individualities among different regions and finding a balance when designing and evaluating HBRCB-related global policies in the global convergence trend of HBRCBs will be major concerns in the future.

文摘Layered rock formations are frequently encountered during the excavation of underground structures. The stability of such structures is influenced not only by the stress concentration caused by the cavities in the strata but also by the anisotropy of the layered rock mass. The interaction between them can lead to critical structural failure, such as rupture, collapse, or significant deformation within the adjacent rock mass, thereby jeopardizing operational safety. However, the coupling law and mechanism between the stress concentration resulting from the cavities and the anisotropy of a layered rock mass remain unclear. In this study, a uniaxial compression test was performed on shale specimens containing a circular hole to investigate the effects of layer inclination and circular holes on the mechanical properties, elastic energy storage, and failure behaviors of these specimens. The failure mechanism of the rock surrounding the hole was analyzed on the basis of the single plane of weakness theory and the Kirsch solution. The test results indicated pronounced anisotropy in the compressive strength, elastic modulus, and elastic strain energy of the specimens, with distinct “V”, “M” and “U”-shaped patterns correlated with varying layer inclination angles. In addition, the combined effect of stress concentration and layer inclination resulted in different failure types, which were classified into four groups according to their failure behavior. Theoretical analysis revealed that failure around circular holes in layered rock is affected by a range of variables, such as layer inclination, layer strength, lateral pressure coefficient, azimuth, and loading stress.
文摘This paper examines the travel behaviors of hand-foot-and-mouth disease(HFMD)patients in Nanchang City in central China.Based on the HFMD patients’hospital visitation data from the Center of Disease Control(CDC)of Nanchang in 2018,a spatial network of patient-to-hospital trip flows is constructed.A Geographic Information Systems(GIS)automated network community detec-tion method,termed‘ScLeiden’,is utilized to delineate the study area into six hospital service areas(HSAs)to represent distinctive health care markets.Patients’travel patterns across these HSAs are compared to highlight the geographic disparity.In two HSAs anchored by major hospitals in the regions,the volume of patients increased up to a travel range and then declined,and thus formed a single peak in the trip volume distribution curve across travel time.Each of the remaining four HSAs exhibited two or more peaks in their trip volume distribution curves.The patterns reflected the split choices of patients for the largest Children Hospital in the region,the second-tier county hospital,or others,which were likely to be stratified by their economic affordability,transportation means,and possible health literacy.The study provides valuable insights into the delineation of HSAs and the unique patients’travel behaviors in China.

文摘Biological neurons exhibit a double-membrane structure and perform specialized functions.Replicating the doublemembrane architecture in artificial neurons to mimic biological neuronal functions is a compelling research challenge.In this study,we propose a multifunctional neural circuit composed of two capacitors,two linear resistors,a phototube cell,a nonlinear resistor,and a memristor.The phototube and charge-controlled memristor serve as sensors for external light and electric field signals,respectively.By applying Kirchhoff's and Helmholtz's laws,we derive the system's nonlinear dynamical equations and energy function.We further investigate the circuit's dynamics using methods from nonlinear dynamics.Our results show that the circuit can exhibit both periodic and chaotic patterns under stimulation by external light and electric fields.

文摘The fall armyworm(Spodoptera frugiperda)is an invasive species and a destructive pest of maize,which significantly impacts native species and communities via complex mechanisms like competition for resources.However,the interaction between S.frugiperda and local pests remains unclear.In this study,we determined that Oriental armyworm(Mythimna separata)females with different mating status displayed different approach-avoidance behaviors towards maize which was infested by S.frugiperda larvae.The virgin M.separata females were repelled,while the mated females were attracted by the S.frugiperda-infested maize.To further understand the olfactory mechanism of this phenomenon,seven volatiles induced by S.frugiperda in maize were characterized by gas chromatography and mass spectrometry(GC-MS),including trans-2-hexenal,linalool,trans-β-farnesene,cis-3-hexenyl acetate,β-caryophyllene,trans-α-bergamotene,and isopentyl acetate.Additionally,electrophysiological and behavioral assays of the seven compounds were performed using both virgin and mated females of M.separata.We determined that virgin and mated females displayed different responses to the herbivore-induced plant volatile(HIPV).Trans-β-farnesene was the core compound for repelling virgin females,and trans-2-hexenal was the key attractant for oviposition in mated female M.separata individuals.These findings help our comprehension of the relationships between maize pests and offer new possibilities for controlling them by olfactory-based strategies.

文摘Background Adolescents’subjective well-being(SWB)is strongly linked to mental health,academic achievement,social relationships,and quality of life,and is a key predictor of life outcomes in adulthood.Mental health and addictive behaviors are the two main factors influencing SWB.This study aimed to identify key mental health and addictive behavior factors associated with adolescent SWB through machine learning models.Methods The data for this study comes from the Health Behaviour in School-aged Children(HBSC)survey 2017/18.The study data contains health data from 60,450 adolescents aged 10–16 years.The study used the XGBoost machine learning model to analyze the impact of mental health and addictive behaviors on adolescent SWB.Gain was used to analyze the significance of the variables.The direction of action of the variables and the interaction between the variables were analyzed using the SHapley Additive exPlanations(SHAP)method.Results The model in this study has an accuracy of 86.7%and an AUC value of 0.85,showing its good predictive performance.Six key variables were filtered through Gain analysis.Feeling low and health as the two most important factors affecting SWB,with these two variables contributing 51.38%and 19.65%,respectively.Friends and thinking body as major factors influencing SWB in mental health.Smoking lifetime and sweets as major factors influencing SWB in addictive behaviors.The interactions and characteristic dependencies between these variables were further analyzed.The results showed that feeling low,friends,and sweets had a positive effect on SWB,while health and smoking lifetime showed a negative effect.In addition,a moderate thinking body contributes to SWB,whereas being too fat and too thin are both associated with decreased levels of SWB.Conclusion Mental health and addictive behavioral factors such as feeling low,friends,sweets,and smoking lifetime were significant factors influencing SWB.This provides a scientific basis for the development of public health policies and interventions aimed at enhancing adolescent well-being.

文摘In the deep geological disposal repository of high-level radioactive waste,buffer/backfill materials typically consist of compacted bentonite block and granular bentonite.As these materials undergo a long-term hydration,it is anticipated that the two forms of bentonite materials(i.e.compacted bentonite powder(CBP)and granular bentonite(GB))are expected to exhibit differing hydro-mechanical behaviors due to the differences in their structures.This work aims to investigate the differences in swelling pressure and compressibility through a series of swelling pressure tests,compression tests and mercury intrusion porosimetry(MIP)tests.The experimental results demonstrated that swelling pressure curves of the CBP specimens showed higher first peak values and more pronounced collapse than those of the GB specimens at a given dry density,regardless of vapor-water hydration or liquid-water hydration.The final swelling pressures of the two materials were similar at the same dry density,suggesting an independent correlation between swelling pressure and dry density.At the high suction range,the compression curves exhibited an obvious bi-linear pattern for the CBP specimens and a significant nonlinearity for the GB specimens.Meanwhile,the CBP specimens presented higher pre-consolidation pressures and larger compression indices than the GB specimens at a given suction.As suction decreased,the compression curves of the two materials gradually approached each other and their differences were reduced accordingly.After reaching saturation,a good consistency between them was observed whether for final swelling pressure or compressibility.Pore structure analysis revealed that the two materials both presented an initially double structure,and their differences were primarily manifested at the macrostructural level.Eventually,the differences in swelling pressure or compression curves of the two materials were well interpreted by combining microstructural evolutions.
