Mechanical Properties of Different Lithological Rocks: A Case Study of the Coal Measure Strata in the Eastern Margin of Ordos Basin, China by Xiong Jian, Wu Jianjun, Liu Junjie, Li Bing, Liu Xiangjun, Liang Lixi

“…Under the uniaxial compression condition, the peak strain of different lithological rocks is obviously different, and the denaturation characteristics are also obviously different, and the failure modes of rocks are mainly the tensile fracture mode, suggesting that the rock samples have strong brittle characteristics. With the increase of the strain, the total energy of different lithological rocks of the coal measure strata increases, and the elastic energy first increases and then decreases rapidly, whereas the dissipated energy first increases slowly and then increases rapidly. …”

Wavenumber-dependent transmission of subthreshold waves on electrical synapses network model of Caenorhabditis elegans by Iksoo Chang, Taegon Chung, Sangyeol Kim

“…Inspired by these necessities of developing a theoretical and computational model to this end and, however, in the absence of connectome information for the inferior olive nucleus, here we investigated interference phenomena of the subthreshold oscillations in the reference system Caenorhabditis elegans for which the structural anatomical connectome was completely known recently. We evaluated how strongly the sinusoidal wave was transmitted between arbitrary two cells in the model network. …”
