Digitally Mediated Heritage Tourism for Sustainable Heritage Management: Evidence from the Liangzhu Heritage Site

How heritage tourism scenes evolve alongside digital mediation and how different forms of mediation are represented in visitor accounts remain insufficiently understood. This study examines the Liangzhu heritage site, centred on the Archaeological Ruins of Liangzhu City, using 71...

Tough Hydrogel-Mediated Constrained Assembly of Multidimensional Topological Networks for Synergistic Mechanical-Thermal Enhancement

Abstract The rapid development of high-power flexible electronics demands thermal management materials with both high thermal conductivity and mechanical robustness. However, traditional high-loading thermal management materials suffer from an intrinsic mechanical-thermal trade-o...

Depth control of a biomimetic mantis shrimp underwater robot using a gas-driven variable buoyancy system and ESO-BSMC

Biomimetic underwater robots have broad application prospects in marine resource exploration, environmental monitoring, and operations in complex waters. However, the compact structure, limited payload capacity, and restricted energy reserves of small biomimetic underwater robots...

Recent Advances in Triplet Free‐Carbene Transfer Chemistry

Photoinduced free‐carbene transfer reactions have emerged as a powerful and practical method for enabling a wide range of C─C and C─X bond‐forming transformations and synthesizing structurally diverse and complex molecules. However, the spin state of free‐carbene intermediates is...

Energy transfer and loss mechanisms of a centrifugal compressor stage in a high-altitude atmosphere

Existing research has established that high-altitude, low-Reynolds-number (low-Re) conditions cause deterioration in centrifugal compressor efficiency, pressure ratio, and operational stability; however, the aerodynamic matching between sub-components and the energy transfer and...

CS 2 Induced Annulation of 2‐Alkynyl Nitroarenes With Indoles: Construction of 2,2‐Disubstituted Indolin‐3‐ones

An efficient CS 2 induced annulation of 2‐alkynyl nitroarenes with indoles for the construction of 2,2‐disubstituted indolin‐3‐ones has been developed. A range of functionalized indolin‐3‐ones were prepared in moderate to good yields from easily available starting materials. This...

Structure–property relationships in a cobalt(II) sulfonamide complex: crystallographic, Hirshfeld surface, spectroscopic, docking and antibacterial investigations

Sulfonamide-based metal complexes remain of interest because metal coordination can modify their electronic structure and biological properties. A cobalt(II) complex, bis[4-aminobenzenesulfonamide]bis(dimethylformamide)diaqua-cobalt(II) nitrate (Co-ABS-DMF), was synthesized and i...

The dynamic relationship between inclusive leadership, job crafting towards strengths and employees’ career calling: the moderating role of core self-evaluation

Purpose Drawing on the Work as Calling Theory (WCT), we developed and tested a longitudinal model of how employees’ career calling develops over time. Specifically, we examined the dynamic relationships among job crafting towards strengths (JCS), inclusive leadership, and career...

Drug-Initiated Synthesis and Processing of Mupirocin–PLGA Conjugates for Biodegradable Antibacterial Scaffolds

Abstract Mupirocin–poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (Mup-PLGA) conjugates were developed via drug-initiated ring-opening polymerization to create biodegradable scaffolds with local antibacterial activity. Conjugate composition and molecular weight were controlled to tune degradation...

Binary-error compensation iteration for optimized Fourier single-pixel imaging

Fourier single-pixel imaging utilizing binary-speckles modulation offers significant advantages in high-speed acquisition; however, it is inherently constrained by quantization-induced image degradation. To address this challenge, we propose an optimized reconstruction method bas...

Graphite-induced interface regulation in hard carbon for high-performance sodium-ion storage

In this work, we propose a graphite-induced interface strategy, in which pre-carbonized coconut shell carbon is wrapped with graphite paper and then carbonized. This process induces ordered rearrangement of carbon atoms on the hard carbon surface, forming ion transport channels c...

Regio- and Diastereo-Controlled (5 + 2) Cycloaddition of gem -Difluorocyclopropenes and Oxidopyridinium Ions

Abstract A method for the direct synthesis of 3,3-difluoro-9-azatricyclo[3.3.1.02,4]nonanes via a (5 + 2) cycloaddition between a gem-difluorocyclopropene and an oxidopyridinium ion is reported. This approach furnishes the products in moderate to good yields, with exclusive exo-s...

How incentive mechanisms affect the dynamic internalization of low-carbon behavior? A perspective from carbon inclusion platforms

The carbon inclusion platform, as an important digital tool for promoting public low-carbon lifestyles, guides individuals to engage in low-carbon behavior through mechanisms such as point incentives, behavioral feedback, and social interaction, and plays an increasingly importan...

Oligosaccharides from Dendrobium officinale Ameliorate Metabolic Dysfunction in db/db Mice by Modulating Gut Microbiota, Short-Chain Fatty Acid Production, and Intestinal Barrier Integrity
