Research on the evolution and prediction of the heights of water-conducting fracture zones in overlying rocks during layered mining of extremely thick coal seams by MENG Hailun, CHENG Xianggang, QIAO Wei

“…Based on the geological conditions of the extremely thick coal seams in the Jurassic coalfields of Xinjiang, this research selected the parameters of the typical working face 9-15 (08) in the Liuhuanggou Coal Mine of the Zhunnan Coalfield in Xinjiang, quantitatively evaluated the development characteristics and evolution patterns of the overlying rock fracture fields under layered full-mechanized mining of extremely thick coal seams through numerical simulations and fractal geometry theory analysis. A prediction model was developed for the heights of water-conducting fracture zones in layered mining of extremely thick coal seams based on particle swarm optimization support vector machine regression (PSO-SVR). …”

Landscape connectivity alters the evolution of density-dependent dispersal during pushed range expansions by Dahirel, Maxime, Bertin, Aline, Calcagno, Vincent, Duraj, Camille, Fellous, Simon, Groussier, Géraldine, Lombaert, Eric, Mailleret, Ludovic, Marchand, Anaël, Vercken, Elodie

“…Range expansions can be ranked on a continuum going from pulled dynamics, in which low-density edge populations provide the “fuel” for the advance, to pushed dynamics in which high-density rear populations “push” the expansion forward. While theory suggests that evolution during range expansions could lead pushed expansions to become pulled with time, empirical comparisons of phenotypic divergence in pushed vs. pulled contexts are lacking. …”

Experimental study and model prediction of the influence of different factors on the mechanical properties of saline clay by Hui Cheng, Lingkai Zhang, Chong Shi, Pei Pei Fan

“…The boundary point of the 2% salt content divides the effect of salt ions from promoting free water flow to blocking seepage channels, with the proportion of micropores being the primary influencing factor. (4) Employing statistical theory and machine learning algorithms, dry density, water content, and salinity are used to predict mechanical index values. …”

Keeping Active with Texting after Stroke (KATS): a single-arm feasibility and acceptability study of a behavioural intervention to promote community-based physical activity after s... by Gozde Ozakinci, Stephan U Dombrowski, Andrew Murphy, Albert Farre, Jenna Breckenridge, Jacqui H Morris, Linda A Irvine, Keith Jenkinson

“…Objectives To test the feasibility and acceptability of a text-message-delivered behavioural intervention to promote and maintain physical activity and recovery after stroke rehabilitation.Design A single-arm acceptability and feasibility study.Setting Community rehabilitation services in two Health Board areas in Scotland.Participants People with stroke who could participate in physical activities and use a mobile phone were recruited during rehabilitation and community rehabilitation.Intervention Keeping Active with Texting after Stroke (KATS) is an automated text message-delivered intervention informed by behaviour change theory. It delivers a structured sequence of 103 messages over 14 weeks to support the uptake and maintenance of physical activities following stroke rehabilitation.Outcomes Data on recruitment, retention and satisfaction were collected. …”
