Three-Dimensional Physical Similarity Simulation of the Deformation and Failure of a Gas Extraction Surface Well in a Mining Area by Junhui Fu, Haitao Sun, Guangcai Wen, Rifu Li

“…To provide information for the design of gas extraction surface wells in mining areas, the deformation and failure of surface wells with different materials under the influence of mining-induced rock movement were analyzed based on a three-dimensional physical similarity simulation and key strata theory. The research findings reveal that the fractures in the overlying strata had an elliptic-parabolic shape. …”

Knuckle-walking and behavioural flexibility in great apes by Emily LR Tarrega-Saunders, Charlotte King, Alice M Roberts, Susannah KS Thorpe

“…Kinematic differences in the knuckle-walking gaits of chimpanzees and gorillas have provided crucial evidence to support the theory that knuckle-walking evolved independently in the Pan and Gorilla lineages, rather than being inherited from their last common ancestor. …”

Nonlinear Behaviour of Concrete Buttress Dams under High-Frequency Excitations Taking into Account Topographical Amplifications by Roghayeh Abbasiverki, Richard Malm, Anders Ansell, Erik Nordström

“…The sensitivity of the calculated response of the dam to the free-field modelling approach is investigated by comparing the result with analyses using an analytical method based on one-dimensional wave propagation theory and a massless approach. Available deconvolution software is based on the one-dimensional shear wave propagation to transform the earthquake motion from the foundation surface to the corresponding input motion at depth. …”

Characterization of a Selenium-Tolerant Rhizosphere Strain from a Novel Se-Hyperaccumulating Plant Cardamine hupingshanesis by Xinzhao Tong, Linxi Yuan, Lei Luo, Xuebin Yin

“…A novel selenium- (Se-) hyperaccumulating plant, Cardamine hupingshanesis, accumulating Se as a form of SeCys2, was discovered in Enshi, Hubei, China, which could not be explained by present selenocysteine methyltransferase (SMT) theory. However, it is interesting to investigate if rhizosphere bacteria play some roles during SeCys2 accumulation. …”

Optimal control analysis of Taenia saginata bovine cysticercosis and human taeniasis by Damian, Kajunguri, Joshua, A. Mwasunda, Jacob I, Irunde

“…These results suggest that control measures such as improving meat cooking, meat inspection and treatment of infected humans will be effective for controlling taeniasis and cysticercosis in humans and cattle respectively. The optimal control theory is applied by considering three time dependent controls which are improved meat cooking, vaccination of cattle, and treatment of humans with taeniasis when they are implemented in combination. …”
