These reliefs consist of several tens (up to hundreds) of stripes that have arisen as a result of the destruction of vegetation and the surface layer of the ground. Structures of stripes are extended, ranging in size from 6 km to ≥20 km, with a width of several kilometers. Every strip (scratch on the ground) is roughly estimated to be up to 50 m wide and ≥500 m long. The stripes start from one edge of the relief and stretch at inter-vals to the other, slightly diverging symmetrically from the central axis. It was determined that these reliefs are not associated with the movement of soil (avalanches, mudflows) or with the impact of air currents (hurricanes, storm, tornado). Geographically, these struc-tures of stripes are located within a circle with a radius of 770 km, described around the epicenter of the Tunguska catastrophe.展开更多

文摘Unusual reliefs on the Earth’s surface were found in aerial photographs of Eastern Siberia in the late 20<sup>th</sup> century.

文摘Experimental results from the Daniudi gas field enhance our understanding of mechanisms behind CO_(2) injection for enhanced recovery from tight-sand gas reservoirs.The results reveal that the diffusion coefficients of CO_(2) in tight reservoirs range from 10-8m2/s to 10-9m2/s,correlating negatively with pore pressure and positively with pore radius.In these reservoirs,CO_(2) manifests a significantly higher adsorption capability compared to CH4,suggesting a competitive adsorption advantage.Further,the amount of adsorbed gas correlates negatively with core permeability and positively with pore pressure.In the late-stage depletion-drive development of tight-sand gas reservoirs,CO_(2) injection alleviates water locking and enhances gas-water flow,facilitating the recovery of trapped gas.The long-core CO_(2) flooding experiment results in a 14.11%increase in gas recovery efficiency.The effectiveness of CO_(2) -enhanced gas recovery (EGR) is primarily related to reservoir properties.Higher average permeability correlates with more effective CO_(2) -EGR.Although the rate and mode of injection have limited impacts on ultimate recovery efficiency,they influence CO_(2) breakthrough time.Specifically,a higher injection rate leads to earlier breakthrough,and the breakthrough under pulsed CO_(2) injection occurs later than that under continuous injection.

文摘The 110-mining method,a rising and revolutionary non-pillar longwall mining method,can obviously expand coal extraction ratio and minimize roadway incidents.However,in case of composite hard roof,problems such as difficulty in commanding the entry steadiness and insufficient fragmentation and bulking of the goaf gangue are prevalent.In this study,a 110-mining method for roadway surrounding rock stability control technology based on a compensation mechanism was proposed.First,the composite hard roof cutting short cantilever beam(SCB)model was built and the compensation mechanism including stress and space dual compensation was studied.Subsequently,the controllable elements influencing the roadway steadiness were confirmed to consequently put forward a control technology based on stress compensation for entry support and space compensation for the fragmentation and bulking of goaf gangue.The control technology was finally verified through onsite engineering experiments in terms of composite hard roof.The adoption of the 110-mining method with compensation control technology indicated good support effect on the roadway.The initial and residual expansion coefficients of the goaf gangue increased by 0.6 and 0.6,respectively,and the maximum and average working resistances of the working face support decreased by 10.9%and 13.8%,respectively.Consequently,the deformations of reserved entry decreased,and entry steadiness was enhanced.The presented technique and effects got probably have practical values for non-pillar mining functions in comparable field.
文摘BACKGROUND Functional gastrointestinal disorders(FGIDs)are common gastrointestinal conditions that significantly impair patient quality of life.Current clinical treatment methods are relatively limited,making the search for more effective therapeutic strategies critically important.Latent myofascial trigger points(MTrPs)injection,as an emerging minimally invasive treatment method,has shown potential in alleviating muscle pain and improving function,but its application in FGIDs remains insufficiently validated.AIM To assess improvements in gastrointestinal symptom severity,quality of life indices,and treatment-related adverse events between the two therapeutic approaches.METHODS This single-blind randomized controlled study recruited 60 FGIDs patients from Qilu Hospital of Shandong University,randomly divided into an injection group(TI group)and an oral medication group(PO group)at a 1:1 ratio.The TI group received abdominal wall latent MTrPs injection therapy,while the PO group received oral symptomatic medication treatment.Primary outcome measures were gastrointestinal symptom severity scores(Gastrointestinal Symptom Rating Scale,Irritable Bowel Syndrome Severity Scoring System scales)at 2 weeks and 4 weeks after treatment completion.Secondary outcome measures included Gastrointestinal Quality of Life Index scores.Both groups underwent rigorous follow-up and assessment.RESULTS The TI group is anticipated to significantly outperform the PO group in gastrointestinal symptom relief and quality of life improvement.TI group patients are expected to show a notable decrease in symptom scores,increased quality of life index,and higher clinical effectiveness rate.Additionally,the TI group is projected to have a low adverse event rate and good safety profile.CONCLUSION Latent MTrPs injection therapy may represent an effective and safe new method for treating FGIDs.Compared to traditional oral medication treatment,this method demonstrates significant advantages in improving patient symptoms and quality of life.

文摘During fully mechanized caving mining of thick coal seams,a large amount of strain energy accumulates in the roof,especially when the roof is thick and hard,making it difficultfor the roof to collapse naturally.When the roof eventually collapses,the accumulated energy is released instantaneously,exerting a strong impact on the roadway.To address this issue,we proposed the synergistic control method of directional comprehensive pressure relief and energy-absorbing support(PREA)for roadways with hard roofs.In this study,we developed a three-dimensional physical model test apparatus for roof cutting and pressure relief.The 122108 ventilation roadway at the Caojiatan Coal Mine,which has a thick and hard roof,was taken as the engineering example.We analyzed the evolution patterns of stress and displacement in both the stope and the roadway surrounding rocks under different schemes.The PREA reinforcement mechanism for the roadway was investigated through comparative model tests between the new and original methods.The results showed that,compared to the original method,the new method reduced surrounding rock stress by up to 60.4%,and the roadway convergence decreased by up to 52.1%.Based on these results,we proposed corresponding engineering recommendations,which can guide fieldreinforcement design and application.The results demonstrate that the PREA method effectively reduces stress and ensures the safety and stability of the roadway.
