Based on the principles of atmospheric dynamics, Part I propose an amplifying mechanism of solar impacts on winter climate extremes through changing the atmospheric circulation patterns. This mechanism is supported by data analysis of the sunspot number up to the predicted Solar Cycle 24, the historical surface temperature data, and atmospheric variables of NCEP/NCAR Reanalysis up to the February 2011 for the Northern Hemisphere winters. For low solar activity, the thermal contrast between the low- and high-latitudes is enhanced, so as the mid-latitude baroclinic ultra-long wave activity. The land-ocean thermal contrast is also enhanced, which amplifies the topographic waves. The enhanced mid-latitude waves in turn enhance the meridional heat transport from the low to high latitudes, making the atmospheric "heat engine" more efficient than normal. The jets shift southward and the polar vortex is weakened. The Northern Annular Mode (NAM) index tends to be negative. The mid-latitude surface exhibits large-scale convergence and updrafts, which favor extreme weather/climate events to occur. The thermally driven Siberian high is enhanced, which enhances the East Asian winter monsoon (EAWM). For high solar activity, the mid-latitude circulation patterns are less wavy with less meridional transport. The NAM tends to be positive, and the Siberian high and the EAWM tend to be weaker than normal. Thus the extreme weather/climate events for high solar activity occur in different regions with different severity from those for low solar activity. The solar influence on the mid- to high-latitude surface temperature and circulations can stand out after removing the influence from the E1 Nifio-Southern Oscillation. The atmospheric amplifying mechanism indicates that the solar impacts on climate should not be simply estimated by the magnitude of the change in the solar radiation over solar cycles when it is compared with other external radiative forcings that do not influence the climate in the same way as the sun does.展开更多

文摘Lost circulation critically jeopardizes drilling safety and efficiency,and remains an unresolved challenge in oil and gas engineering.In this paper,by utilizing the self-developed dynamic plugging apparatus and synthetic cores containing large-scale fractures,experimental research on the circulation plugging of different materials was conducted.Based on the D90 rule and fracture mechanical aperture model,we analyze the location of plugging layer under dynamic plugging mechanism.By setting different parameters of fracture width and injection pressure,the laws of cyclic plugging time,pressure bearing capacity and plugging layers formation were investigated.The results show that the comprehensive analysis of particle size and fracture aperture provides an accurate judgment of the entrance-plugging phenomenon.The bridging of solid materials in the leakage channel is a gradual process,and the formation of a stable plug requires 2–3 plug-leakage cycles.The first and second cyclic plugging time was positively correlated with the fracture width.Different scales of fractures were successfully plugged with the bearing pressure greater than 6 MPa,but there were significant differences in the composition of the plugging layer.The experimental results can effectively prove that the utilized plugging agent is effective and provides an effective reference for dynamic plugging operation.

文摘Images taken in dim environments frequently exhibit issues like insufficient brightness,noise,color shifts,and loss of detail.These problems pose significant challenges to dark image enhancement tasks.Current approaches,while effective in global illumination modeling,often struggle to simultaneously suppress noise and preserve structural details,especially under heterogeneous lighting.Furthermore,misalignment between luminance and color channels introduces additional challenges to accurate enhancement.In response to the aforementioned difficulties,we introduce a single-stage framework,M2ATNet,using the multi-scale multi-attention and Transformer architecture.First,to address the problems of texture blurring and residual noise,we design a multi-scale multi-attention denoising module(MMAD),which is applied separately to the luminance and color channels to enhance the structural and texture modeling capabilities.Secondly,to solve the non-alignment problem of the luminance and color channels,we introduce the multi-channel feature fusion Transformer(CFFT)module,which effectively recovers the dark details and corrects the color shifts through cross-channel alignment and deep feature interaction.To guide the model to learn more stably and efficiently,we also fuse multiple types of loss functions to form a hybrid loss term.We extensively evaluate the proposed method on various standard datasets,including LOL-v1,LOL-v2,DICM,LIME,and NPE.Evaluation in terms of numerical metrics and visual quality demonstrate that M2ATNet consistently outperforms existing advanced approaches.Ablation studies further confirm the critical roles played by the MMAD and CFFT modules to detail preservation and visual fidelity under challenging illumination-deficient environments.

文摘Accurate and efficient detection of building changes in remote sensing imagery is crucial for urban planning,disaster emergency response,and resource management.However,existing methods face challenges such as spectral similarity between buildings and backgrounds,sensor variations,and insufficient computational efficiency.To address these challenges,this paper proposes a novel Multi-scale Efficient Wavelet-based Change Detection Network(MewCDNet),which integrates the advantages of Convolutional Neural Networks and Transformers,balances computational costs,and achieves high-performance building change detection.The network employs EfficientNet-B4 as the backbone for hierarchical feature extraction,integrates multi-level feature maps through a multi-scale fusion strategy,and incorporates two key modules:Cross-temporal Difference Detection(CTDD)and Cross-scale Wavelet Refinement(CSWR).CTDD adopts a dual-branch architecture that combines pixel-wise differencing with semanticaware Euclidean distance weighting to enhance the distinction between true changes and background noise.CSWR integrates Haar-based Discrete Wavelet Transform with multi-head cross-attention mechanisms,enabling cross-scale feature fusion while significantly improving edge localization and suppressing spurious changes.Extensive experiments on four benchmark datasets demonstrate MewCDNet’s superiority over comparison methods:achieving F1 scores of 91.54%on LEVIR,93.70%on WHUCD,and 64.96%on S2Looking for building change detection.Furthermore,MewCDNet exhibits optimal performance on the multi-class⋅SYSU dataset(F1:82.71%),highlighting its exceptional generalization capability.

文摘Climate models are essential for understanding past,present,and future changes in atmospheric circulation,with circulation modes providing key sources of seasonal predictability and prediction uncertainties for both global and regional climates.This study assesses the performance of models participating in phase 6 of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project in simulating interannual variability modes of Northern Hemisphere 500-hPa geopotential height during winter and summer,distinguishing predictable(potentially predictable on seasonal or longer timescales)and unpredictable(intraseasonal and essentially unpredictable at long range)components,using reanalysis data and a variance decomposition method.Although most models effectively capture unpredictable modes in reanalysis,their ability to reproduce dominant predictable modes-specifically the Pacific-North American pattern,Arctic Oscillation,and Western Pacific Oscillation in winter,and the East Atlantic and North Atlantic Oscillations in summer-varies notably.An optimal ensemble is identified to distinguish(a)predictable-external modes,dominated by external forcing,and(b)predictable-internal modes,associated with slow internal variability,during the historical period(1950-2014)and the SSP5-8.5 scenario(2036-2100).Under increased radiative forcing,the leading winter/summer predictable-external mode exhibits a more uniform spatial distribution,remarkably larger trend and annual variance,and enhanced height-sea surface temperature(SST)covariance under SSP5-8.5 compared to historical conditions.The dominant winter/summer predictable-internal modes also exhibit increased variance and height-SST covariance under SSP5-8.5,along with localized changes in spatial configuration.Minimal changes are observed in spatial distribution or variance for dominant winter/summer unpredictable modes under SSP5-8.5.This study,from a predictive perspective,deepens our understanding of model uncertainties and projected changes in circulations.

文摘Wind-induced circulation is the main form of lake flow for shallow lakes and plays an important role in algae population distribution.This study constructed a three-dimensional hydrodynamic model(EFDC)of the plateau lake Erhai,China using accuracy wind field observation,runoff data and monthly algae data during 2022–2023.The model successfully reproduced the circulation characteristics of Erhai under prevailing wind directions.The results showed that the lake flow velocity in Lake Erhai is higher in winter than in summer,with lower velocities near shore particularly in the northern and central parts of the lake.There is a negative correlation between algal biomass and flow velocity(FV)in different zones,with lower FV favoring the accumulation of algal biomass,particularly for Microcystis,Dolichospermum,and Peridinium.Additionally,due to buoyancy,cyanobacteria are highly affected by wind direction and tend to accumulate in downwind regions of the prevailing wind direction.This study demonstrates that wind-induced circulation is a crucial factor affecting the spatial distribution of dominant algae populations in shallow plateau lakes with weak hydrodynamic force.Further,the risk of bloom occurrence in Lake Erhai will be higher due to the background of global climate change and the lake’s wind speed decline.In conclusion,we suggest implementing targeted zoning measures to control algal blooms and establishing stricter regulations for nitrogen and phosphorus control to counterbalance the promotion of algal bloom accumulation in low-velocity zones caused by reduced wind speed.
文摘With the rapid expansion of drone applications,accurate detection of objects in aerial imagery has become crucial for intelligent transportation,urban management,and emergency rescue missions.However,existing methods face numerous challenges in practical deployment,including scale variation handling,feature degradation,and complex backgrounds.To address these issues,we propose Edge-enhanced and Detail-Capturing You Only Look Once(EHDC-YOLO),a novel framework for object detection in Unmanned Aerial Vehicle(UAV)imagery.Based on the You Only Look Once version 11 nano(YOLOv11n)baseline,EHDC-YOLO systematically introduces several architectural enhancements:(1)a Multi-Scale Edge Enhancement(MSEE)module that leverages multi-scale pooling and edge information to enhance boundary feature extraction;(2)an Enhanced Feature Pyramid Network(EFPN)that integrates P2-level features with Cross Stage Partial(CSP)structures and OmniKernel convolutions for better fine-grained representation;and(3)Dynamic Head(DyHead)with multi-dimensional attention mechanisms for enhanced cross-scale modeling and perspective adaptability.Comprehensive experiments on the Vision meets Drones for Detection(VisDrone-DET)2019 dataset demonstrate that EHDC-YOLO achieves significant improvements,increasing mean Average Precision(mAP)@0.5 from 33.2%to 46.1%(an absolute improvement of 12.9 percentage points)and mAP@0.5:0.95 from 19.5%to 28.0%(an absolute improvement of 8.5 percentage points)compared with the YOLOv11n baseline,while maintaining a reasonable parameter count(2.81 M vs the baseline’s 2.58 M).Further ablation studies confirm the effectiveness of each proposed component,while visualization results highlight EHDC-YOLO’s superior performance in detecting objects and handling occlusions in complex drone scenarios.

文摘Impact craters are important for understanding the evolution of lunar geologic and surface erosion rates,among other functions.However,the morphological characteristics of these micro impact craters are not obvious and they are numerous,resulting in low detection accuracy by deep learning models.Therefore,we proposed a new multi-scale fusion crater detection algorithm(MSF-CDA)based on the YOLO11 to improve the accuracy of lunar impact crater detection,especially for small craters with a diameter of<1 km.Using the images taken by the LROC(Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter Camera)at the Chang’e-4(CE-4)landing area,we constructed three separate datasets for craters with diameters of 0-70 m,70-140 m,and>140 m.We then trained three submodels separately with these three datasets.Additionally,we designed a slicing-amplifying-slicing strategy to enhance the ability to extract features from small craters.To handle redundant predictions,we proposed a new Non-Maximum Suppression with Area Filtering method to fuse the results in overlapping targets within the multi-scale submodels.Finally,our new MSF-CDA method achieved high detection performance,with the Precision,Recall,and F1 score having values of 0.991,0.987,and 0.989,respectively,perfectly addressing the problems induced by the lesser features and sample imbalance of small craters.Our MSF-CDA can provide strong data support for more in-depth study of the geological evolution of the lunar surface and finer geological age estimations.This strategy can also be used to detect other small objects with lesser features and sample imbalance problems.We detected approximately 500,000 impact craters in an area of approximately 214 km2 around the CE-4 landing area.By statistically analyzing the new data,we updated the distribution function of the number and diameter of impact craters.Finally,we identified the most suitable lighting conditions for detecting impact crater targets by analyzing the effect of different lighting conditions on the detection accuracy.

文摘Influenza A virus(IAV) has a wide host range,including wild birds,poultry,various mammals,and even humans(Xu et al.2024).Currently,two subtypes of canine influenza virus(CIV),H3N8 and H3N2,are primarily circulating in dogs.The H3N8 CIV was introduced from horses into dogs in 2004(Crawford et al.2005),while the H3N2 CIV originated from chickens in Asia in 2007(Song et al.2008).In China,H3N2 is the predominant CIV subtype,with a prevalence rate of up to 5.63% in the canine population,as reported by Chen et al.(2023).CIV infection typically manifests with symptoms such as coughing,sneezing,runny nose,and fever but is rarely fatal.However,co-infection with other pathogens(e.g.,Streptococcus,Mycoplasma or canine parainfluenza virus) can exacerbate symptoms and lead to lethal outcomes(Yondo et al.2023).

文摘The impacts of solar activity on climate are explored in this two-part study. Based on the principles of atmospheric dynamics, Part I propose an amplifying mechanism of solar impacts on winter climate extremes through changing the atmospheric circulation patterns. This mechanism is supported by data analysis of the sunspot number up to the predicted Solar Cycle 24, the historical surface temperature data, and atmospheric variables of NCEP/NCAR Reanalysis up to the February 2011 for the Northern Hemisphere winters. For low solar activity, the thermal contrast between the low- and high-latitudes is enhanced, so as the mid-latitude baroclinic ultra-long wave activity. The land-ocean thermal contrast is also enhanced, which amplifies the topographic waves. The enhanced mid-latitude waves in turn enhance the meridional heat transport from the low to high latitudes, making the atmospheric "heat engine" more efficient than normal. The jets shift southward and the polar vortex is weakened. The Northern Annular Mode (NAM) index tends to be negative. The mid-latitude surface exhibits large-scale convergence and updrafts, which favor extreme weather/climate events to occur. The thermally driven Siberian high is enhanced, which enhances the East Asian winter monsoon (EAWM). For high solar activity, the mid-latitude circulation patterns are less wavy with less meridional transport. The NAM tends to be positive, and the Siberian high and the EAWM tend to be weaker than normal. Thus the extreme weather/climate events for high solar activity occur in different regions with different severity from those for low solar activity. The solar influence on the mid- to high-latitude surface temperature and circulations can stand out after removing the influence from the E1 Nifio-Southern Oscillation. The atmospheric amplifying mechanism indicates that the solar impacts on climate should not be simply estimated by the magnitude of the change in the solar radiation over solar cycles when it is compared with other external radiative forcings that do not influence the climate in the same way as the sun does.

文摘Because of the challenge of compounding lightweight,high-strength Ti/Al alloys due to their considerable disparity in properties,Al 6063 as intermediate layer was proposed to fabricate TC4/Al 6063/Al 7075 three-layer composite plate by explosive welding.The microscopic properties of each bonding interface were elucidated through field emission scanning electron microscope and electron backscattered diffraction(EBSD).A methodology combining finite element method-smoothed particle hydrodynamics(FEM-SPH)and molecular dynamics(MD)was proposed for the analysis of the forming and evolution characteristics of explosive welding interfaces at multi-scale.The results demonstrate that the bonding interface morphologies of TC4/Al 6063 and Al 6063/Al 7075 exhibit a flat and wavy configuration,without discernible defects or cracks.The phenomenon of grain refinement is observed in the vicinity of the two bonding interfaces.Furthermore,the degree of plastic deformation of TC4 and Al 7075 is more pronounced than that of Al 6063 in the intermediate layer.The interface morphology characteristics obtained by FEM-SPH simulation exhibit a high degree of similarity to the experimental results.MD simulations reveal that the diffusion of interfacial elements predominantly occurs during the unloading phase,and the simulated thickness of interfacial diffusion aligns well with experimental outcomes.The introduction of intermediate layer in the explosive welding process can effectively produce high-quality titanium/aluminum alloy composite plates.Furthermore,this approach offers a multi-scale simulation strategy for the study of explosive welding bonding interfaces.

文摘The movement of global ocean circulation in the Earth’s main magnetic field generates a measurable induced magnetic field(about 2 nT at geomagnetic satellite altitudes).However,this ocean circulation-induced magnetic field has not been previously estimated or incorporated into geomagnetic field models,potentially causing leakage into the core field model.Here,we present a method to account for the circulation-induced magnetic field during geomagnetic field modeling.First,a forward model of the circulation-induced magnetic field is constructed by numerically solving electromagnetic induction equations based on a realistic ocean circulation model.Then,this forward model is subtracted from the observed data.Finally,the core and lithospheric fields,magnetospheric and Earth’s mantle-induced fields,and the ocean tide-induced magnetic field are co-estimated.Applying our method to over 20 years of MSS-1,Swarm,CryoSat-2,and CHAMP satellite magnetic data,we derive a new multisource geomagnetic field model(MGFM).We find that incorporating a forward model of the circulation-induced magnetic field marginally improves the fit to the data.Furthermore,we demonstrate that neglecting the circulation-induced magnetic field in geomagnetic field modeling results in leakage into the core field model.The highlights of the MGFM model include:(i)a good agreement with the widely used CHAOS model series;(ii)the incorporation of magnetic fields induced by both ocean tides and circulation;and(iii)the suppression of leakage of the circulation-induced magnetic field into the core field model.

文摘Improving the volumetric energy density of supercapacitors is essential for practical applications,which highly relies on the dense storage of ions in carbon-based electrodes.The functional units of carbon-based electrode exhibit multi-scale structural characteristics including macroscopic electrode morphologies,mesoscopic microcrystals and pores,and microscopic defects and dopants in the carbon basal plane.Therefore,the ordered combination of multi-scale structures of carbon electrode is crucial for achieving dense energy storage and high volumetric performance by leveraging the functions of various scale structu re.Considering that previous reviews have focused more on the discussion of specific scale structu re of carbon electrodes,this review takes a multi-scale perspective in which recent progresses regarding the structureperformance relationship,underlying mechanism and directional design of carbon-based multi-scale structures including carbon morphology,pore structure,carbon basal plane micro-environment and electrode technology on dense energy storage and volumetric property of supercapacitors are systematically discussed.We analyzed in detail the effects of the morphology,pore,and micro-environment of carbon electrode materials on ion dense storage,summarized the specific effects of different scale structures on volumetric property and recent research progress,and proposed the mutual influence and trade-off relationship between various scale structures.In addition,the challenges and outlooks for improving the dense storage and volumetric performance of carbon-based supercapacitors are analyzed,which can provide feasible technical reference and guidance for the design and manufacture of dense carbon-based electrode materials.

文摘Convolutional neural networks(CNNs)-based medical image segmentation technologies have been widely used in medical image segmentation because of their strong representation and generalization abilities.However,due to the inability to effectively capture global information from images,CNNs can easily lead to loss of contours and textures in segmentation results.Notice that the transformer model can effectively capture the properties of long-range dependencies in the image,and furthermore,combining the CNN and the transformer can effectively extract local details and global contextual features of the image.Motivated by this,we propose a multi-branch and multi-scale attention network(M2ANet)for medical image segmentation,whose architecture consists of three components.Specifically,in the first component,we construct an adaptive multi-branch patch module for parallel extraction of image features to reduce information loss caused by downsampling.In the second component,we apply residual block to the well-known convolutional block attention module to enhance the network’s ability to recognize important features of images and alleviate the phenomenon of gradient vanishing.In the third component,we design a multi-scale feature fusion module,in which we adopt adaptive average pooling and position encoding to enhance contextual features,and then multi-head attention is introduced to further enrich feature representation.Finally,we validate the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed M2ANet method through comparative experiments on four benchmark medical image segmentation datasets,particularly in the context of preserving contours and textures.

文摘Prediction of production decline and evaluation of the adsorbed/free gas ratio are critical for determining the lifespan and production status of shale gas wells.Traditional production prediction methods have some shortcomings because of the low permeability and tightness of shale,complex gas flow behavior of multi-scale gas transport regions and multiple gas transport mechanism superpositions,and complex and variable production regimes of shale gas wells.Recent research has demonstrated the existence of a multi-stage isotope fractionation phenomenon during shale gas production,with the fractionation characteristics of each stage associated with the pore structure,gas in place(GIP),adsorption/desorption,and gas production process.This study presents a new approach for estimating shale gas well production and evaluating the adsorbed/free gas ratio throughout production using isotope fractionation techniques.A reservoir-scale carbon isotope fractionation(CIF)model applicable to the production process of shale gas wells was developed for the first time in this research.In contrast to the traditional model,this model improves production prediction accuracy by simultaneously fitting the gas production rate and δ^(13)C_(1) data and provides a new evaluation method of the adsorbed/free gas ratio during shale gas production.The results indicate that the diffusion and adsorption/desorption properties of rock,bottom-hole flowing pressure(BHP)of gas well,and multi-scale gas transport regions of the reservoir all affect isotope fractionation,with the diffusion and adsorption/desorption parameters of rock having the greatest effect on isotope fractionation being D∗/D,PL,VL,α,and others in that order.We effectively tested the universality of the four-stage isotope fractionation feature and revealed a unique isotope fractionation mechanism caused by the superimposed coupling of multi-scale gas transport regions during shale gas well production.Finally,we applied the established CIF model to a shale gas well in the Sichuan Basin,China,and calculated the estimated ultimate recovery(EUR)of the well to be 3.33×10^(8) m^(3);the adsorbed gas ratio during shale gas production was 1.65%,10.03%,and 23.44%in the first,fifth,and tenth years,respectively.The findings are significant for understanding the isotope fractionation mechanism during natural gas transport in complex systems and for formulating and optimizing unconventional natural gas development strategies.
文摘Objective:To evaluate the therapeutic effect of Tianma Gouteng Decoction combined with Betahistine Mesylate in patients with posterior circulation ischemic vertigo(PCI).Methods:Eighty-two patients with PCI who visited the hospital from February 2024 to February 2025 were selected as samples and randomly divided into two groups.Group A received Tianma Gouteng Decoction combined with Betahistine Mesylate,while Group B received only Betahistine Mesylate.The efficacy,syndrome scores,hemodynamics,and quality of life indicators were compared between the two groups.Results:The efficacy of PCI treatment in Group A was higher than that in Group B(P<0.05).The syndrome scores in Group A were lower than those in Group B(P<0.05).The peak systolic velocity(PSV)of the basilar artery and left and right vertebral arteries in Group A were higher than those in Group B(P<0.05).The quality of life(SF-36)score in Group A was higher than that in Group B(P<0.05).Conclusion:Tianma Gouteng Decoction combined with Betahistine Mesylate is effective and feasible in the treatment of PCI,with improved hemodynamic indicators and reduced disease scores.

文摘In recent years,gait-based emotion recognition has been widely applied in the field of computer vision.However,existing gait emotion recognition methods typically rely on complete human skeleton data,and their accuracy significantly declines when the data is occluded.To enhance the accuracy of gait emotion recognition under occlusion,this paper proposes a Multi-scale Suppression Graph ConvolutionalNetwork(MS-GCN).TheMS-GCN consists of three main components:Joint Interpolation Module(JI Moudle),Multi-scale Temporal Convolution Network(MS-TCN),and Suppression Graph Convolutional Network(SGCN).The JI Module completes the spatially occluded skeletal joints using the(K-Nearest Neighbors)KNN interpolation method.The MS-TCN employs convolutional kernels of various sizes to comprehensively capture the emotional information embedded in the gait,compensating for the temporal occlusion of gait information.The SGCN extracts more non-prominent human gait features by suppressing the extraction of key body part features,thereby reducing the negative impact of occlusion on emotion recognition results.The proposed method is evaluated on two comprehensive datasets:Emotion-Gait,containing 4227 real gaits from sources like BML,ICT-Pollick,and ELMD,and 1000 synthetic gaits generated using STEP-Gen technology,and ELMB,consisting of 3924 gaits,with 1835 labeled with emotions such as“Happy,”“Sad,”“Angry,”and“Neutral.”On the standard datasets Emotion-Gait and ELMB,the proposed method achieved accuracies of 0.900 and 0.896,respectively,attaining performance comparable to other state-ofthe-artmethods.Furthermore,on occlusion datasets,the proposedmethod significantly mitigates the performance degradation caused by occlusion compared to other methods,the accuracy is significantly higher than that of other methods.

文摘Coral reef limestone(CRL)constitutes a distinctive marine carbonate formation with complex mechanical properties.This study investigates the multiscale damage and fracture mechanisms of CRL through integrated experimental testing,digital core technology,and theoretical modelling.Two CRL types with contrasting mesostructures were characterized across three scales.Macroscopically,CRL-I and CRL-II exhibited mean compressive strengths of 8.46 and 5.17 MPa,respectively.Mesoscopically,CRL-I featured small-scale highly interconnected pores,whilst CRL-II developed larger stratified pores with diminished connectivity.Microscopically,both CRL matrices demonstrated remarkable similarity in mineral composition and mechanical properties.A novel voxel average-based digital core scaling methodology was developed to facilitate numerical simulation of cross-scale damage processes,revealing network-progressive failure in CRL-I versus directional-brittle failure in CRL-II.Furthermore,a damage statistical constitutive model based on digital core technology and mesoscopic homogenisation theory established quantitative relationships between microelement strength distribution and macroscopic mechanical behavior.These findings illuminate the fundamental mechanisms through which mesoscopic structure governs the macroscopic mechanical properties of CRL.

文摘Due to complex geological structures and a narrow safe mud density window,offshore fractured formations frequently encounter severe lost circulation(LC)during drilling,significantly hindering oil and gas exploration and development.Predicting LC risks enables the targeted implementation of mitigation strategies,thereby reducing the frequency of such incidents.To address the limitations of existing 3D geomechanical modeling in predicting LC,such as arbitrary factor selection,subjective weight assignment,and the inability to achieve pre-drilling prediction along the entire well section,an improved prediction method is proposed.This method integrates multi-source data and incorporates three LC-related sensitivity factors:fracture characteristics,rock brittleness,and in-situ stress conditions.A quantitative risk assessment model for LC is developed by combining the subjective analytic hierarchy process with the objective entropy weight method(EWM)to assign weights.Subsequently,3D geomechanical modeling is applied to identify regional risk zones,enabling digital visualization for pre-drilling risk prediction.The developed 3D LC risk prediction model was validated using actual LC incidents from drilled wells.Results were generally consistent with field-identified LC zones,with an average relative error of 19.08%,confirming its reliability.This method provides practical guidance for mitigating potential LC risks and optimizing drilling program designs in fractured formations.

文摘Intracerebral hemorrhage(ICH) is a significant and growing threat to human health,with increasing incidence.Promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis therapy(PBCRBS),a Traditional Chinese Medicine therapy,can be an adjuvant therapy to benefit patients with ICH by improving clinical efficacy.However,in theory,using PBCRBS to treat ICH carries the risk of hematoma enlargement and rebleeding,which has led to controversy over its application in ICH treatment.To demonstrate the effectiveness and safety of PBCRBS in treating ICH,this review first analyzes the pathological and physiological basis of ICH and secondly,the cascade of response after ICH and the involvement of cytokines and signaling pathways in this process.Finally,experimental and clinical studies on the treatment of ICH with PBCRBS over the past decade were retrieved from the Pub Med and China National Knowledge Infrastructure databases,and the content of these studies was used to summarize commonly used herbs with PBCRBS effects and their mechanisms of action.Through analysis,hypertension has been identified as the most common cause of ICH.Heme,interleukin,reactive oxygen species,coagulation promoting particles and other induced mass effects,inflammation,oxidative stress,and coagulation cascade reactions lead to brain damage following ICH.This review includes 56 experimental studies and 83 clinical studies summarizing 28 commonly used herbs,demonstrating the positive impact of PBCRBS as an adjuvant therapy for ICH.In summary,PBCRBS appears effective and safe for treating ICH.

文摘The fusion of infrared and visible images should emphasize the salient targets in the infrared image while preserving the textural details of the visible images.To meet these requirements,an autoencoder-based method for infrared and visible image fusion is proposed.The encoder designed according to the optimization objective consists of a base encoder and a detail encoder,which is used to extract low-frequency and high-frequency information from the image.This extraction may lead to some information not being captured,so a compensation encoder is proposed to supplement the missing information.Multi-scale decomposition is also employed to extract image features more comprehensively.The decoder combines low-frequency,high-frequency and supplementary information to obtain multi-scale features.Subsequently,the attention strategy and fusion module are introduced to perform multi-scale fusion for image reconstruction.Experimental results on three datasets show that the fused images generated by this network effectively retain salient targets while being more consistent with human visual perception.
