Field Detection and Numerical Simulation Study on Roof Asymmetric Fracture Mechanism of Large-Span Soft Rock Roadway with Discontinuity Surface by Liang Chen, Shouyang Gao, Bin Miao, Nan Yao, Shizhong Zhang, Wei Zhang

“…When the surrounding rock stress is completely released, the roof cracks in region I gradually transition from nonconnected to connected state and form a “quasi-right triangle” loosening zone. In addition, an “isosceles triangle-like” high crack density loosening zone with the roof middle as the axis is also formed in region II. …”

Deterministic approach to design passive anomalous-diffraction metasurfaces with nearly 100% efficiency by Fang Zhening, Li Haipeng, Chen Yan, Sun Shulin, Xiao Shiyi, He Qiong, Zhou Lei

“…Designing perfect anomalous reflectors is crucial for achieving many metasurface-based applications, but available design approaches for the cases of extremely large bending angles either require unrealistic gain–loss materials or rely on brute-force optimizations lacking physical guidance. Here, we propose a deterministic approach to design passive metasurfaces that can reflect impinging light to arbitrary nonspecular directions with almost 100% efficiencies. …”

Categorization of early embryonic malformations in broilers by a new classification method combining light microscopy and high-resolution Episcopic Microscopy by Yuval Cinnamon, Natalia Slutsky, Maxim Quint, Olga Genin, Dalit Sela-Donenfeld

“…Since the embryonic phase accounts for ∼40% of a broiler's lifespan, poor embryonic development significantly contributes to malformations and mortality, adversely affecting both hatching and post-hatching performance.The foundations for proper embryogenesis are established within the first days of incubation during the formation of the three-germ layers and onset of organogenesis. …”

Strongly connected dominating set construction algorithm balancing time delay and energy consumption by Yan-jing SUN, Jian-sheng QIAN, Shan-shan MA, Peng REN

“…To the asymmetry of link in wireless sensor networks,a problem about the strongly connected dominating tree with bounded transmission delay (SDTT) was put forward.The distributed strongly connected dominating tree (SCDT) algorithm was also proposed to construct strongly connected dominating set balancing transmission delay and energy consumption.Firstly,it constructed a maximal independent set (MIS) based on a unit disk graph,and then implemented the SCDT algorithm based on a double weighted and directed graph fulfilling the requirements of energy consumption and transmission delays simultaneously.The theoretical analysis and simulation results show that the presented algorithm can correctly solve the SDTT problem and construct the connected dominating sets(CDS)with constraints to form virtual backbone.…”
