Comparative Study on Dynamic Mechanical Behavior and Power-Law Versus Johnson–Cook Constitutive Models of Quenched 42CrMo Steel

This study systematically investigates the dynamic mechanical behavior and constitutive modeling of low-temperature quenched and tempered 42CrMo steel under high-strain-rate and high-temperature conditions. Dynamic compression tests were performed using a split Hopkinson pressure...

Hard Carbon Networks for Mitigating Graphite Lattice Strain Under Extreme‑Low‑Temperature Fast Charging

ABSTRACT Low‐temperature fast charging of lithium‐ion batteries is primarily constrained by sluggish reaction kinetics and mechanical degradation of graphite anodes. Here, a kinetic–structural coordination strategy based on a 15 wt.% hard carbon (HC) percolating network embedded...

Integrative Transcriptomics and Mendelian Randomization Identify RGS1 as a Causal Immune Regulator in Alzheimer’s Disease

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) has a complex pathogenesis, involving molecular and neuroimmune dysregulation, but the causal drivers linking transcriptomic changes to immune remodeling are not yet clear. In a discovery cohort, differential expression analysis was performed, and it was...

A superelastic titanium alloy showing nearly temperature-independent high strength and elastic modulus

Lightweight superelastic alloys with temperature-insensitive properties are critical for deep-space exploration devices, yet their development is hindered by the challenge of simultaneously balancing strength, recoverable strain, and temperature sensitivity. Here, we overcome the...

The heritage dilemma: balancing commercial viability with cultural integrity

Purpose This study aims to address a critical challenge in safeguarding intangible cultural heritage by examining how meaningful experiences stimulate word-of-mouth (WOM) storytelling in the context of Cantonese Opera. Moving beyond traditional outcome measures such as satisfacti...

In Situ CdS-MediatedOrganic PhotoelectrochemicalTransistor Sensor for Highly Sensitive H2S Detection

Abstract Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) serves as an important gasotransmitter implicated in vascular regulation, neuroprotection, and redox homeostasis, and its aberrant fluctuation is closely associated with diverse pathological disorders. Consequently, the development of sensitive and...

Dual-SignalAmplification: Synergistic Integrationof Nanozyme-Catalyzed SERS Aptasensor with μHPLC Pre-enrichmentfor Ultrasensitive ATP Monitoring

Abstract The precise quantification of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) at physiologically critical femtomolar levels in complex biological fluids remains a formidable challenge, constrained by irreconcilable demands for extreme sensitivity, specificity, and operational robustness. C...

120-year spatiotemporal evolution of water–settlement interactions in Xinjiang, China

Understanding the long-term co-evolution of water systems and human settlements in arid regions is essential for water security and climate-adaptive planning. This study reconstructs the spatiotemporal dynamics of hydrographic network density (HND) and settlement density (SED) in...

Risk stratification of long-term distant metastasis in nasopharyngeal carcinoma: a retrospective study of 7,045 patients diagnosed from 2012 to 2022

Distant metastasis (DM) remains the leading cause of treatment failure in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC), severely compromising long-term survival. Despite advances in screening and multimodal therapies, a considerable proportion of patients still develop DM after standard treatm...

Transition MetalSulfides Supported on SulfonatedCNT-Chitosan Derived Carbon Aerogel for Efficient Electrooxidationof 5-Hydroxymethylfurfural to 2,5-Furandicarboxylic Acid

Abstract In this study, we present a straightforward synthesis strategy to prepare transition metal sulfide electrocatalysts supported on sulfonated carbon nanotube-chitosan-derived carbon aerogel. Highly dispersed Ni3S2@CNT, Cu7S4@CNT, and Co4S3@CNT were successfully fabricated...

Oxygen-Content-Dependent Interfacial and Barrier Effects of Graphene Fillers in PVA Adhesives Toward Durable Polarizer Applications

Waterborne poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) adhesives are widely used in iodine-based polarizers, owing to their excellent transparency and interfacial adhesion. However, the intrinsic hydrophilicity of PVA compromises the long-term durability of polarizers under humid conditions. Herei...

Zonal Differentiation and Feature-Contribution Patterns of Visual Perception in Historic Districts: An Explainable Machine Learning Approach Using Street View Imagery—A Case Study of Jimei School Village, Xiamen

From a Historic Urban Landscape (HUL) perspective, varying conservation intensities and statutory boundaries may create “zonal differentiation” within historic districts. However, conventional homogenized renewal strategies frequently overlook this heterogeneity, affecting physic...

Modular simulation-based teaching enhancement for antenna radiation, propagation, and reception: An end-to-end visualization of Maxwell's equations and boundary conditions

To address the challenges associated with the abstract nature of Maxwell's equations and boundary conditions, as well as the lack of coherence among different topics in the Electromagnetic Fields and Waves course, this study develops a progressive three-module simulation framewor...
