Influence of volatiles (H$_{2}$O and CO$_{2}$) on shoshonite phase equilibria by Vetere, Francesco, Namur, Olivier, Holtz, Francois, Almeev, Renat, Donato, Paola, Frondini, Francesco, Cassetta, Michele, Pisello, Alessandro, Perugini, Diego

“…This result has important consequences upon the physical properties of the magma because it influences its viscosity and, as a consequence, velocity during its travel to the Earth surface.Assuming that the widths of Vulcanello conduits vary from 0.5 to 1.5 m, estimates of the ascent velocity vary in the range 1.5 ${\times }$ 10$^{-4}$–3.5 ${\times }$ 10$^{-2}$ m${\cdot }$s$^{-1}$ for CO$_{2}$ free systems and from 5.7 ${\times }$ 10$^{-4}$–1.3 ${\times }$ 10$^{-1}$ m${\cdot }$s$^{-1}$ for CO$_{2}$ bearing systems.Since shoshonitic magmas are common not only in the Italian volcanic provinces (Aeolian Arc, Campi Flegrei, Ischia Island, Pontine Islands, Monti Cimini, Monte Amiata, Capraia Island, Radicofani, Roccamonfina) but also in different volcanoes worldwide (Yellowstone, Mariana Arc, Kurile Arc, Tonga Arc, Andean Arc, Kamchatka Arc), we suggest that the new data will be useful to better understand shoshonitic magma behaviour under relevant geological scenarios. …”

Pedestrian Comfort Analysis and Parameterized Optimization Design for Raised Floors by Juanli Guo, Haonan Liang, Jiehui Wang, Yijie Cao

“…The study then quantitatively assesses the pedestrian comfort of raised floors based on natural frequency and peak acceleration measurements, proposing an optimization design method using a multi-island genetic algorithm (MIGA). By adjusting parameters such as the support leg distance, beam shape, and support board surface layer thickness, an optimal balance between pedestrian comfort and heat transfer performance is achieved. …”

À propos de deux cas de brucellose dans le sud de la France aux époques médiévale et moderne (Abbaye Saint-Sauveur, Aniane ; La Closeraie, Aix-en-Provence) by Avril Meffray, Philippe Biagini, Catherine Rigeade, Michel Panuel, Laurent Schneider, Yann Ardagna

“…Brucellosis, known as "Mediterranean fever", has been an endemic zoonosis in human societies, especially in rural and island environments, for thousands of years. The macroscopic characteristics of this infection by Brucella bacteria are well defined, but they are difficult to assess in palaeopathological diagnoses, as reflected by the small number of cases in the relevant literature. …”

Vibration Analysis of a Piecewise-Smooth System with Negative Stiffness under Delayed Feedback Control by Dongmei Huang, Wei Li, Guidong Yang, Meijuan He, Hong Dang

“…Then, from the perspective of the equivalent damping, the comparisons of the response characteristics of the controlled system to the uncontrolled system, such as the phenomenon of frequency island, are fulfilled. Furthermore, sensitivity of the system response to feedback gain and time delay is studied and interesting dynamic properties are found. …”

Automatic speech recognition predicts contemporaneous earthquake fault displacement by Christopher W. Johnson, Kun Wang, Paul A. Johnson

“…Here we apply the Wav2Vec-2.0 self-supervised framework for automatic speech recognition to continuous seismic signals emanating from a sequence of moderate magnitude earthquakes during the 2018 caldera collapse at the Kīlauea volcano on the island of Hawai’i. We pre-train the Wav2Vec-2.0 model using caldera seismic waveforms and augment the model architecture to predict contemporaneous surface displacement during the caldera collapse sequence, a proxy for fault displacement. …”
