Integration of ordered porous materials for targeted three-component gas separation by Xue Jiang, Yu Wang, Hui Wang, Lu Cheng, Jian-Wei Cao, Jin-Bo Wang, Rong Yang, Dong-Hui Zhang, Run-Ye Zhang, Xiu-Bo Yang, Su-Hang Wang, Qiu-Yu Zhang, Kai-Jie Chen

“…Both of the respective pore-integrated materials show excellent one-step ethylene production performance in dynamic breakthrough separation experiments of C2H2/C2H4/C2H6 and CO2/C2H4/C2H6 gas mixture, and even better than that from traditional tandem-packing processes originated from the optimized mass/heat transfer. Thermodynamic and dynamic simulation results explained that the pre-designed pore modules can perform specific target functions independently in the pore-integrated materials.…”

Parkinson’s disease and other movement disorders in the context of the SARS-COV-2 pandemic by R. Kaladytė Lokominienė

“…The penetration of SARS-CoV-2 into the brain damaged by Parkinson’s disease can enhance the clinical burden of movement disorder and increase the deficit for substitutional dopaminergic therapy. To date, there are no randomised controlled trials of COVID-19 outcomes in cases of Parkinson’s disease and other movement disorders though patients of this category can be more vulnerable because of rigidity or dissinergy of respiratory musculature, diminished cough reflex, impaired swallowing, and chronic dyspnea. …”

The Optimal PPP Model of Emergency Rescue Service by Guangxi Cao, Ling Zhou

“…Based on the analysis of the shortage of emergency rescue services and the supervision of public-private-partnership (PPP) projects, this paper explores the rent-seeking game predicament and establishes a three-player rent-seeking game model among government regulators, private enterprises, and government agents in the bidding operation of PPP projects by learning from Stackelberg game theory. Through the numerical simulation analysis, this paper explores the impact of the relevant variables on the model results, which can lead to the following conclusions: the emphasis on government regulators changes due to rent-seeking cost changes; when the success rate of verification is high, government regulators can take supervision randomly. …”
