Numerical simulation study on mining method for anti rock burst in different steeply inclined extra-thick coal seam by Zemin CHEN, Zhenlei LI, Taoping ZHONG, Dazhao SONG, Xudong LIU, Xucong HU

“…In addition, under the condition of inclined sectional mining, the inclined gob can further weaken the horizontal stress transfer, and it has the function of pressure relief protection for the high level side roadway; based on comprehensive comparison, it is believed that the stress level of the surrounding rock above and below the roadway is lower and the degree of deformation of the roadway is the lowest, which is more conducive to the prevention and control of rock burst.…”

Failure risk study of anchor bolts durability for loess slope under long-term hydro-thermal effect by Zhou Chang, Weifeng Sun, Changgen Yan, Hengxing Lan, Yuling Shi, Han Bao

“…The results show that the slope shallow loess exhibited hydro-thermal fluctuations annually during operation, subjecting the loess to continuous dry–wet cycles. Soil elastic deformation induces anchor axial force fluctuations due to hydro-thermo effects, while damage creep leads to the annual increase in axial force peaks and valleys. …”

Spermatic RXFP2 expression levels and seminal INSL3 concentrations among beef bull ejaculates with different levels of sperm morphological normality by Hewage Dilhan Anuradha WIMALARATHNE, Kenta ARASHI, Fumiyuki IWAKI, Mitsuhiro SAKASE, DURITAHALA, Hiroshi HARAYAMA, Noritoshi KAWATE

“…In conclusion, RXFP2 levels were reduced in the sperm head and neck in bovine semen, with a lower level of sperm morphological normality, suggesting possible associations between increased sperm deformity and INSL3 receptor reduction. Higher seminal INSL3 concentrations in abnormal semen are probably related to fewer INSL3 receptors in spermatozoa.…”
