Effect of Microarc Oxidation Treatment with Different Concentrations of MgSiF6 on Titanium-Porcelain Bonding Strength by Jing Lv, Mujie Yuan, Pei Sun, Changlei Wei, Shaojun Zhang, Yaozhong Wang, Jie Liu, Fei Tan

“…Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) were applied to evaluate the morphologies and elemental compositions of the MAO coating, titanium-porcelain fracture surfaces, titanium-porcelain interfaces, and oxygen diffusion. The bonding strength of the 20 g/L MgSiF6 group was significantly higher than that of the control group. …”

Upper Ocean Thermal Responses to Sea Spray Mediated Turbulent Fluxes during Typhoon Passage by Lianxin Zhang, Changlong Guan, Chunjian Sun, Siyu Gao, Shaomei Yu

“…Diagnostic analysis indicates that sea spray acts as an additional source of the air-sea turbulent fluxes and plays a key role in increasing the turbulent kinetic energy in the upper ocean, which enhances the temperature diffusion there. Therefore, sea spray is also an important factor in determining the upper mixed layer depth during the typhoon passage.…”

A Deep Graph-Embedded LSTM Neural Network Approach for Airport Delay Prediction by Weili Zeng, Juan Li, Zhibin Quan, Xiaobo Lu

“…For adjacent airports, weights of edges are measured by the spherical distance between them, while the number of flight pairs between them is utilized for airports connected by flights. On this basis, a diffusion convolution kernel is constructed to capture characteristics of delay propagation between airports, and it is further integrated into the sequence-to-sequence LSTM neural network to establish a deep learning framework for delay prediction. …”
