Applications of the Atmospheric Transport and Diffusion of LES Modeling to the Spread and Dissipation of COVID-19 Aerosol Particles inside and outside the Japan National Stadium (T... by Takanori Uchida, Ryo Araya

“…Next, a model of the Japan National Stadium (Tokyo Olympic Stadium) was constructed using 3D detailed topographic Advanced World 3D Map (AW3D) data generated by combining high-resolution satellite images. We tried to reproduce the hypothetical spread and dissipation of the fluid layer (assuming the fluid layer contains COVID-19 particles) inside and outside of the Japan National Stadium using Airflow Analyst implemented with the RIAM-COMPACT analysis function for gas diffusion. …”

Evaluation of Identification and Susceptibility for Candida Spp. Isolated Directly from Positive Blood Culture Bottles by Ândrea Celestino de Souza, Luciano Z. Goldani, Eliane Würdig Roesch, Larissa Lutz, Patricia Orlandi Barth, Paulo André de Souza Sampaio, Valério Rodrigues Aquino, Dariane Castro Pereira

“…Our study concluded that the rapid disk diffusion method for fluconazole is a fast, easy, reproducible, and consistent method. Its timely implementation for testing antifungal agents in the clinical microbiology laboratory can help reduce profile release times, thus helping to determine the most appropriate antifungal treatment.…”

Mortality Clustering in the Family. Fast Life History Trajectories and the Intergenerational Transfer of Infant Death in Late 19th- and Early 20th-Century Antwerp, Belgium by Robyn Donrovich, Paul Puschmann, Koen Matthijs

“…The results on the age of the mother at birth, her marital status, as well as the living environment suggest that at least part of the intergenerational transfer in infant mortality can be explained on the basis of life history theory: women who grew up in a high-risk family tended to reproduce earlier and faster, and often raised their children without a partner. …”

Elevated high-precision mapping and localization technology for periodic inspections by Xianghua Fan, Wenbo Pan

“…Abstract Due to the absence of Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) information within tunnels, mobile mapping systems encounter issues with cumulative errors, making it difficult to obtain precise absolute pose information. Consequently, reproducing point cloud maps becomes challenging, thereby limiting the capability of tunnel defect detection methods to conduct repeated inspections, posing a major obstacle in assessing defect progression trends. …”

Density of states, black holes and the Emergent String Conjecture by Alek Bedroya, Rashmish K. Mishra, Max Wiesner

“…Using thermodynamic properties of black holes, we show that in asymptotically flat spacetimes, certain features of ρ(E) above the black hole threshold M min are an indicator for the existence of large extra dimensions, and cannot be reproduced by any lower-dimensional field theory with finitely many fields satisfying the weak energy condition. …”

Two-colour QCD phases and the topology at low temperature and high density by Kei Iida, Etsuko Itou, Tong-Gyu Lee

“…We systematically measure the diquark condensate, the Polyakov loop, the quark number density and the chiral condensate with improved accuracy and j → 0 extrapolation over earlier publications; the known qualitative features of the low temperature phase diagram, which is composed of the hadronic, Bose-Einstein condensed (BEC) and BCS phases, are reproduced. In addition, we newly find that around the boundary between the hadronic and BEC phases, nonzero quark number density occurs even in the hadronic phase in contrast to the prediction of the chiral perturbation theory (ChPT), while the diquark condensate approaches zero in a manner that is consistent with the ChPT prediction. …”

Experimental Study on the Influence Mechanism of the Structural Plane to Rockbursts in Deeply Buried Hard Rock Tunnels by Guangtan Cheng, Jian Zhang, Qiang Gao, Chuanxiao Liu

“…The results reveal that three types of rockbursts are identified, namely, fault-slip rockburst, split bulking rockburst, and shear rupture rockburst, and their evolution processes are reproduced. The presence of small-scale structural planes in the vicinity of deep tunnels could be one of the major influence factors in triggering rockbursts. …”
