Stiffness Determination of Backfill-Rock Interface to Numerically Investigate Backfill Stress Distributions in Mine Stopes by Guangsheng Liu, Xiaocong Yang, Lijie Guo

“…The results show that the newly proposed method leads to totally the same backfill stress distributions with models applying the interface stiffness by the method in FLAC manual based on a “rule-of-thumb” but will save at least 20%–30% calculation time to improve modeling efficiency under the same simulation conditions and will carry much clear physical meanings corresponding to the interaction between backfill and rock walls in mine stopes. …”

Hybrid energy harvesting enabled by a covalent organic framework membrane by Jiaming Yi, Zhuozhi Lai, Qing Guo, Zhiwei Xing, Qi Sun

“…Furthermore, the membrane facilitates thermo-osmotic energy conversion by selectively screening ionic charges driven by combined salinity and temperature gradients. Under simulated estuarine salinity conditions and a 30 ​K temperature gradient, the COF membrane achieved a maximum output power density of 91.4 ​W ​m−2—an 18-fold increase compared to the commercial benchmark (5 ​W ​m−2). …”
