Promotion Strategy of Policy against Food Waste (PAFW): The Perspective on Evolutionary Game between Local Government and Large Supermarkets by Xichun Luo, Honghao Zhao

“…Different from the previous literature, this paper uses evolutionary game theory to establish a strategic interaction income matrix between local governments and large supermarkets and analyzes the strategic interaction between local governments and large supermarkets by copying dynamic equations, revealing the strategic choice between the two parties evolution process. A simulation-based approach is used to validate the theoretical results and analyze the influence of key parameters on the evolutionary trajectory. …”

Tectonic relationships between the Paleozoic basement and the Mesozoic cover succession in the northern Dora-Maira Massif (Susa Valley, Western Alps) by Gianni Balestro, Marco Gattiglio, Matthieu Roà, Andrea Festa

“…The northernmost sector of the Dora-Maira Massif is a key area for studying the role of basement-cover detachment zones as markers for understanding the multistage tectonic evolution of orogenic belts. The 1:5,000 scale geological map highlights the tectonic relationships between the Paleozoic basement and Mesozoic cover successions, which are separated by the Bussoleno Detachment Shear Zone, representing the basement-cover interface, and are tectonically overlain by the ophiolite-bearing Foresto Shear Zone. …”

Numerical Investigation of Contact Burning in an Air-Breathing Continuous Rotating Detonation Engine by Dapeng Xiong, Mingbo Sun, Haoyang Peng, Yanan Wang, Yixin Yang, Hongbo Wang, Jiangfei Yu, Zhenguo Wang

“…The expanding angle of the combustor has a great impact on the shape of the detonation wave but has little influence on the propagation velocity. The evolution of combustion on the contact region is analyzed in detail; a more accurate schematic of non-premixed air-breathing rotating detonation engines is given in this paper. …”

Osteopetrosis and Hip Fracture. Case Report and Literature Review by Liyanira Alonso Leiva, José Julio Requeiro Molina, Ana María Machado Consuegra

“…Its early diagnosis makes it possible to treat the underlying pathology and the fracture early, in order to achieve bone consolidation and incorporate patients into their daily lives with a favorable evolution. We present the case of a 10-year-old female patient, white-skinned, who had been in consultation at the Frank País García International Orthopedic Scientific Complex since she was 4 years old, where she was diagnosed with osteopetrosis. …”

The Structure and Stability of Molybdenum Ditelluride Thin Films by Zhouling Wang, Wenwu Wang, Ya Yang, Wei Li, Lianghuan Feng, Jingquan Zhang, Lili Wu, Guanggen Zeng

“…Thermal stability measurements indicate the formation of MoTe2 took place at about 350°C, and a subtle weight-loss was in the range between 30°C and 500°C. The evolution of the chemistry for Mo-Te thin films was performed to investigate the growth of the MoTe2 thin films free of any secondary phase. …”
