文摘Reinforced concrete(RC)columns are often subjected to off-central explosion due to the uncertainty of blast locations.However,few studies have focused on the dynamic response of RC columns under offcentral explosions.A field blast experiment was conducted under close-in explosion with varying detonation offset distances(0 m,0.5 m,and 1 m),the overpressure load and dynamic responses of the full-scale RC columns were measured.Compared with the centrally detonated condition,a relative offset distance of 1.67 decreases the maximum and residual deflections of the RC column by 16.8%and 21.4%,respectively,while increasing the maximum and residual support rotations by 24.7%and 17.8%.Based on the experimental results,a theoretical model was proposed that considers the detonation location and charge mass,boundary conditions,axial compression ratio and material properties.The theoretical model exhibited good agreement with the experimental results,with prediction errors below 10%for both maximum and residual deflection.The effects of parameters were analyzed,and it indicated that an increase in offset distance results in decreased maximum and residual deflections but an increased support angle,thereby exacerbating damage.Higher axial load ratio,span-depth ratio,and longitudinal reinforcement ratio reduce both deflections and support angle.Additionally,a rapid method to predict the maximum and residual deflection of RC columns under off-central blast loading was also proposed based on the Generalized Regression Neural Network(GRNN).Eleven features which related to the RC column properties and the blast characteristics were used in the training process of GRNN,and accurate predictions were achieved with prediction errors within 20%.This study fills the gap in predicting the dynamic response of RC columns under off-central explosion,providing valuable references for blast-resistant design.

文摘Colorectal cancer remains one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide.Despite notable advances in early detection and therapeutic strategies,the molecular mechanisms underlying tumor survival,chemotherapy resistance,and metastasis are not yet fully understood.MicroRNAs(miRNAs)have emerged as pivotal regulators of cancer development,as they modulate gene expression and orchestrate key signaling pathways.However,the epigenetic mechanisms that control miRNA expression and their downstream gene targets remain largely unclear.In this review,we highlight the critical role of the colorectal cancer microenvironment in influencing miRNA expression and discuss how this regulation contributes to tumorigenesis.A better understanding of these processes may lead to the identification of novel therapeutic targets and strategies to prevent recurrence.

文摘The electric double layer(EDL)at the electrochemical interface is crucial for ion transport,charge transfer,and surface reactions in aqueous rechargeable zinc batteries(ARZBs).However,Zn anodes routinely encounter persistent dendrite growth and parasitic reactions,driven by the inhomogeneous charge distribution and water-dominated environment within the EDL.Compounding this,classical EDL theory,rooted in meanfield approximations,further fails to resolve molecular-scale interfacial dynamics under battery-operating conditions,limiting mechanistic insights.Herein,we established a multiscale theoretical calculation framework from single molecular characteristics to interfacial ion distribution,revealing the EDL’s structure and interactions between different ions and molecules,which helps us understand the parasitic processes in depth.Simulations demonstrate that water dipole and sulfate ion adsorption at the inner Helmholtz plane drives severe hydrogen evolution and by-product formation.Guided by these insights,we engineered a“water-poor and anion-expelled”EDL using 4,1’,6’-trichlorogalactosucrose(TGS)as an electrolyte additive.As a result,Zn||Zn symmetric cells with TGS exhibited stable cycling for over 4700 h under a current density of 1 mA cm^(−2),while NaV_(3)O_(8)·1.5H_(2)O-based full cells kept 90.4%of the initial specific capacity after 800 cycles at 5 A g^(−1).This work highlights the power of multiscale theoretical frameworks to unravel EDL complexities and guide high-performance ARZB design through integrated theory-experiment approaches.

文摘Modern business information systems face significant challenges in managing heterogeneous data sources,integrating disparate systems,and providing real-time decision support in complex enterprise environments.Contemporary enterprises typically operate 200+interconnected systems,with research indicating that 52% of organizations manage three or more enterprise content management systems,creating information silos that reduce operational efficiency by up to 35%.While attention mechanisms have demonstrated remarkable success in natural language processing and computer vision,their systematic application to business information systems remains largely unexplored.This paper presents the theoretical foundation for a Hierarchical Attention-Based Business Information System(HABIS)framework that applies multi-level attention mechanisms to enterprise environments.We provide a comprehensive mathematical formulation of the framework,analyze its computational complexity,and present a proof-of-concept implementation with simulation-based validation that demonstrates a 42% reduction in crosssystem query latency compared to legacy ERP modules and 70% improvement in prediction accuracy over baseline methods.The theoretical framework introduces four hierarchical attention levels:system-level attention for dynamic weighting of business systems,process-level attention for business process prioritization,data-level attention for critical information selection,and temporal attention for time-sensitive pattern recognition.Our complexity analysis demonstrates that the framework achieves O(n log n)computational complexity for attention computation,making it scalable to large enterprise environments including retail supply chains with 200+system-scale deployments.The proof-of-concept implementation validates the theoretical framework’s feasibility withMSE loss of 0.439 and response times of 0.000120 s per query,demonstrating its potential for addressing key challenges in business information systems.This work establishes a foundation for future empirical research and practical implementation of attention-driven enterprise systems.

文摘Time-delayed blasting is widely utilized in engineering to mitigate induced vibration hazards and enhance fragmentation.The underlying vibration reduction principle is the decrease of the charge weight per delay,while the potential for further vibration reduction remains debated,largely due to unclear underlying mechanisms.In light of the popularization of electronic detonators and the representativeness of double-hole configurationsfor multiple blastholes,it is essential to investigate the vibration characteristics induced by time-delayed double blastholes.Therefore,a series of doubleborehole experimental blasts was conducted in an underground roadway to clarify the variation in vibration from single-hole to dual-hole conditions.Based on the experimental data and inherent limitations,an exact full-fieldtheoretical model was further employed to systematically analyze the effects of delay time,charge length,and borehole inclination angle on vibrations induced by various doublehole configurations.The experimental data and theoretical analysis reveal that the general scaled distance effectively predicts vibrations in delayed blasting but does not reflectvibration reduction.Increasing delay time causes fluctuatingPPVs,which stabilize slightly above single-hole PPVs as delay times exceed a certain value.The delayed blasting primarily reduces near-fieldfrequencies.Longer charge lengths in double boreholes increase PPV levels and attenuation rates within a certain length,and the vibration behavior of combined long and short charge lengths is governed by the long blasthole.Larger blasthole inclination angles enhance vibration amplitude and reduce PPV attenuation rates.Optimizing inclination angles is more critical than adjusting delay times,and parallel boreholes offer the best vibration control.

文摘Objectives:Pancreatic cancer(PC)is characterized by poor prognosis due to its limited treatment choices and delayed detection.S100A14 has been implicated in tumor progression,yet its regulatory hierarchy and functional interplay in PC remain unclear.This study aimed to define the role of S100A14 in PC progression.Methods:Integrated bioinformatic analyses of TCGA-PAAD and GSE22780 datasets identified candidate hub genes.Prognostic relevance was assessed via Kaplan-Meier and ROC analyses.Functional experiments were performed in PANC-1 and BxPC-3 cells,including qRT-PCR,CCK-8 assay,Western blotting,Transwell assay,and apoptosis assay.Co-immunoprecipitation(Co-IP)was used to verify S100A14-S100A16 interaction.CHX chase and dual-luciferase assays were employed to assess protein stability and transcriptional activity.Results:S100A14 was markedly upregulated in PC tissues and cell lines and identified as a key prognostic gene.Silencing S100A14 suppressed EMT,proliferation,invasion,and migration,while reversing S100A16-mediated p53 inhibition and enhancing apoptosis.Mechanistically,Co-IP assay confirmed the protein interaction between S100A14 and S100A16;S100A14 stabilized S100A16 protein through post-translational modification without transcriptional regulation;the S100A14/S100A16 axis reduced p53 protein stability and inhibited its transcriptional activity as well as the downstream p21 expression.Critically,knockdown of S100A14 abrogated the pro-metastatic phenotype of cancer cells.Conclusion:This study identifies S100A14 promotes PC progression by stabilizing S100A16 and suppressing the tumor-suppressive p53/p21 pathway;knockdown of S100A14 can reverse the above effects,restore p53 function,and enhance cancer cell apoptosis.Targeting the S100A14/S100A16/p53 regulatory axis could represent a promising therapeutic approach for PC.
文摘Investigating the detonation reaction zone structures of high explosives is significant for understanding detonation reaction mechanism.This study employed an integrated approach combining machine learning prediction,theoretical calculation,and experimental characterization to determine the detonation reaction zone width of CL-20-based aluminized explosive.In this study,the detonation reaction zone refers to the reaction zone between the von Neumann(VN)peak and sonic point,which usually means the so-called detonation driving zone(DDZ).For the machine learning prediction,an ensemble model integrating Random Forest and Support Vector Regression was developed to predict the reaction zone width using a dataset of 19 publicly available samples.For the theoretical calculation,the Wood-Kirkwood(W-K)detonation theory model was utilized to implement numerical calculation of the reaction zone structures,incorporating chemical reaction kinetics to describe the detonation reaction progress.In experimental characterization,the Photon Doppler Velocimetry(PDV)was applied with LiF as the optical window to measure the particle velocity profile of detonation products and derive the reaction zone width.The results indicate that the reaction zone width values are 0.25 mm,0.28 mm,and 0.26 mm obtained from machine learning prediction,theoretical calculation,and experimental characterization,respectively.The corresponding velocities at the Chapman-Jouguet(CJ)point are 1,938 m/s,2,047 m/s,and 1,982 m/s,respectively.The maximum relative deviation in reaction zone width among three methods is approximately 7.7%,while that for CJ particle velocity is approximately 3.3%.These results from all three methods agree well within engineering error.This validates the effectiveness of integrating machine learning prediction,theoretical calculation and advanced experimental techniques for studying the detonation reaction zone structures of high explosives.This research provides insights into the detonation reaction mechanism and reaction zone characteristics of CL-20-based aluminized explosive.

文摘This study proposes a framework for the concept of“new quality productive forces”in the ice and snow economy(ISE)as a strategic response to global climate change and the demands of technological and industrial transformation for high-quality development.These new quality productive forces in the ISE have developed alongside the zonal distribution of natural resources,strictly adhere to ecological principles,and integrate value transformation mechanisms specific to ice and snow resources.Their development is projected to generate multiple benefits across ecological,economic,and social dimensions.The new quality productive forces in the ISE are characterized by technology-driven resource development,synergistic integration across the entire ice and snow industry value chain,and a focus on high-quality,green growth.Grounded in geography and economics,the new quality productive forces in the ISE link scientific innovation,the reallocation of productive factors,and industrial upgrading within the context of resource constraints.Furthermore,they expand the growth potential of the ISE by fostering new production relations through digital,intelligent,and green integration,while advancing low-carbon,sustainable development under the guiding principle that“ice and snow landscapes are also mountains of gold and silver.”For China's ISE,these new quality productive forces emphasize rigorous resource protection,balanced human-environment relationships,a resilient integrated supply chain framework,and an efficient“dual circulation”economic model.Practical strategies include integrating production factors,optimizing spatial resource allocation,fostering industrial synergy,and adapting production relations,all aimed at advancing the sustainable and high-quality development of China's ISE.

文摘BACKGROUND Uncertainty in illness(UI)and fear of progression(FoP)are significant psycho-logical challenges for lung cancer patients.Coping styles and social support are critical mediators,influencing patients'ability to manage the emotional and psy-chological burden of UI and FoP.However,limited research has explored the chain mediation effect of these factors on the relationship between UI and FoP,particularly among Chinese lung cancer patients.Convenience sampling was used to recruit inpatients diagnosed with lung cancer at a tertiary hospital in Changde City between November and December 2023.A total of 320 participants completed the Mishel Uncertainty in Illness Scale,Simp-lified Coping Style Questionnaire,Mandarin Chinese Version of the Medical Outcomes Study Social Support Survey,and Fear of Progression Questionnaire-Short Form.The chain mediation analysis was performed using the PROCESS macro to examine the relationships between the variables.RESULTS The results revealed that UI had a significant direct effect on FoP(effect=0.224,95%CI:0.136-0.408).Additionally,three indirect pathways were identified:(1)Social support(effect=0.128,95%CI:0.045-0.153);(2)Coping style(effect=0.115,95%CI:0.048-0.157);and(3)Chain mediators involving social support and coping style(effect=0.072,95%CI:0.045-0.120).The total indirect effect of the three mediation paths is 31.5%.These results confirm that social support and coping style significantly mediate the relationship between UI and FoP.CONCLUSION Based on cross-sectional data and a chain mediation model,this study explored the mechanisms between UI,social support,coping style,and FOP.Patients with lung cancer have higher levels of FOP,and the results of this study revealed a correlation between these four factors.Social support and coping style partially mediated the effects of UI on FOP,and there was a chain-mediating effect between UI and FOP.Programs designed to strengthen social support networks should also incorporate training to develop adaptive coping strategies,ultimately reducing FOP and improving overall quality of life.
文摘Let a_(1),a_(2),a_(3)be nonzero integers with gcd(a_(1),a_(2),a_(3))=1,and let k be any positive integer,K=max[3,|a_(1)|,|a_(2)|,|a_(3)|,k].Suppose that l_(1),l_(2),l_(3)are integers each coprime to k.Suppose further that b is any integer satisfying some necessary congruent conditions.The solvability of linear equation a_(1)p_(1)+a_(2)p_(2)+a_(3)p_(3)=b(p_(j)=l_(j)(mod k),1≤j≤3)with prime variables pi,p_(2),ps is investigated.It is proved that if ai,a_(2),a_(3)are all positive,then the above equation is solvable whenever b≥K^(25);if a,a_(2),a_(3)are not all of the same sign,then the above equation has a solution p_(1),p_(2),p_(3)satisfying max(p_(1),p_(2),p_(3))≤3|b|+K^(25).
文摘Thermally activated delayed fluorescence(TADF)molecules have outstanding potential for applications in organic light-emitting diodes(OLEDs).Due to the lack of systematic studies on the correlation between molecular structure and luminescence properties,TADF molecules are far from meeting the needs of practical applications in terms of variety and number.In this paper,three twisted TADF molecules are studied and their photophysical properties are theoretically predicted based on the thermal vibrational correlation function method combined with multiscale calculations.The results show that all the molecules exhibit fast reverse intersystem crossing(RISC)rates(kRISC),predicting their TADF luminescence properties.In addition,the binding of DHPAzSi as the donor unit with different acceptors can change the dihedral angle between the ground and excited states,and the planarity of the acceptors is positively correlated with the reorganization energy,a property that has a strong influence on the non-radiative process.Furthermore,a decrease in the energy of the molecular charge transfer state and an increase in the kRISC were observed in the films.This study not only provides a reliable explanation for the observed experimental results,but also offers valuable insights that can guide the design of future TADF molecules.

文摘Steel-concrete composite beams,due to their superior mechanical properties,are widely utilized in engineering structures.This study systematically investigates the calculation methods for internal forces and load-bearing capacity of composite beams based on elastic theory,with a focus on the transformed section method and its application under varying neutral axis positions.By deriving the geometric characteristics of the transformed section and incorporating a reduction factor accounting for slip effects,a computational model for sectional stress and ultimate load-bearing capacity is established.The results demonstrate that the slip effect significantly influences the flexural load-bearing capacity of composite beams.The proposed reduction factor,which considers the influence of the steel beam’s top flange thickness,offers higher accuracy compared to traditional methods.These findings provide a theoretical foundation for the design and analysis of composite beams,with significant practical engineering value.
文摘Objective We examined the associations between obesity-related indices and the risk of diabetes progression from prediabetes in older adults,comparing the differences in using the American Diabetes Association(ADA)and World Health Organization(WHO)criteria.Methods Data were obtained from the Healthy Aging Evaluation Longitudinal Study conducted in China.At baseline,prediabetes(in participants without diabetes)was classified based on fasting plasma glucose(FPG)levels using both criteria.Body mass index(BMI)and waist circumference(WC)were categorized according to data distribution and diagnostic cut-off values,respectively.Cox proportional hazards regression models were used to estimate the adjusted hazard ratios(aHRs)with 95%confidence intervals(CIs)for obesity-related indices and diabetes progression from prediabetes.Results Among the 1,127 participants classified as prediabetic according to the ADA criteria,474 met the WHO criteria.Under ADA-defined prediabetes,the highest WC quartile(≥93 cm)was significantly associated with an increased diabetes risk(aHR 1.93[1.06,3.53,P<0.05]),whereas BMI-related and cut-off-based abdominal obesity demonstrated no significant associations(P>0.05).Under WHOdefined prediabetes,both the high tertile of WC(≥90 cm)and general obesity(BMI≥28.0 kg/m^(2))were significantly associated with progression to diabetes(P<0.05),with aHR 2.13(1.06,4.27)and 2.44(1.19,5.01),respectively.However,cut-off-based abdominal obesity and the high BMI tertile(≥25.75 kg/m^(2))were not significantly associated with diabetes progression(P>0.05).Conclusion Elevated WC,rather than BMI-based indices or cut-off-based abdominal obesity,was significantly associated with diabetes progression according to the ADA-defined prediabetes criteria.However,both the evaluated WC and general obesity predicted progression to diabetes according to the WHO criteria.
