Moving beyond the physical: Exploring the holistic benefits of a therapy-based physical activity program for individuals with Parkinson’s disease by Kimberly S. Fasczewski, Nolasco R. Stevens, Hannah S. Michels, Jennifer S. Howard

“…Researchers conducted semi-structured focus group interviews with program participants (n = 18) and their caregivers (n = 7) to explore the perceived benefits of a combination boxing/PA program that included 30 minutes of boxing and 30 minutes of an alternate rotating PA 1-3 times per week. Results indicated a positive impact on participants’ and caregivers’ QoL by increasing socialization and empowerment and improving/maintaining physical function. …”

Experimental study on the bearing capacity and effective anchorage lengths of inclined steel grouting pipes in loess embankment slope. by Jiawei Fan, Yufang Zhang, Kun Yuan, Wenjiao Zhou

“…The field experimental results illustrated that: (1) The bearing capacity of inclined steel grouting pipe with anchorage length of 9 m increases 22.6% compared with that of ordinary grouting pipe. (2) Anchorage length is not a significant influence factor for bearing capacity of inclined steel grouting pipes in loess embankment slope, while anchorage length is a significant influence factor for modulus of load-displacement curves of inclined steel grouting pipes in loess embankment slope. (3) Effective anchorage length of inclined steel grouting pipe in loess embankment slope will be slightly increased when increasing anchorage length, while the ratio of effective anchorage length to total anchorage length will be decreased when increasing anchorage length. (4) Inclined steel grouting pipe average cohesive strength along effective anchorage length section at the interface between cement grouting and soil stratum is at least three times compared with that of rock bolt.…”

The Principle of Invariant Stress of the Surrounding Rock of the Hole under the Condition of Equal Pressure in the Deep Rock Mass by Xiangye Wu, Jingya Wang, Jingang Li, Jianwei Li, Tao Xu, Eryu Wang

“…The study results showed the following. (1) In the current mining depth range, it is difficult to reach the limit of 5 times the hole radius under the condition of invariant pressure of deep rock mass, and it has a significant impact on the near field and relatively small impact on the far field, reflecting the localization effect of the stress influence range. (2) The increase of stress influence range mainly moves outward with the increase of plastic zone range, and its growth slope is low and tends to be horizontal, and the increase amount is negligible. (3) When the failure range of the plastic zone of the hole is small, the influence range of the stress does not change itself, which reflects the stress invariability of the small-scale failure of the surrounding rock of the hole. …”

High fire frequency in California chaparral reduces postfire shrub regeneration and native plant diversity by Ashley R. Grupenhoff, Hugh D. Safford

“…We surveyed fifty‐four 250‐m2 plots to assess changes in plant community composition and postfire regeneration of chaparral shrubs across a wide range of fire frequencies, including plots that have burned up to six times in the past 30 years. Our findings reveal that short‐interval fires significantly reduced postfire native woody regeneration, with obligate seeding species experiencing a 99% reduction and facultative species showing an 83% reduction in regeneration in the most frequently burned plots. …”
