china is a significant global producer of cement and a major contributor to carbon dioxide emissions within the building materials industry. However, in the context of the prevailing climate change challenges, the cement industry has prioritized energy conservation and carbon reduction as its primary objectives. Solid waste cementing material can be used as an alternative to reduce the emissions and heat generated in the cement industry, thus contributing to the collaborative treatment of solid waste and environmental control. This paper introduces the all-solid waste material as a potential replacement for cement. This material only requires grinding without sintering, its raw materials are all-industrial solid waste, and its production process does not emit any toxic and harmful gases, thus contributing to carbon emission reduction. This material also shows compressive properties and its solidification performance is better than that of standard cement and metals (including lead, cadmium, arsenic, and chromium) and satisfies the drinking water standard (GB 5749-2022). Using the carbon emission accounting method, this study highlights the low-carbon and energy saving properties of the all-solid waste material. This material is also environmentally friendly given its low energy consumption and CO2 emissions, thus providing an avenue for furtherresearch on cement alternatives.

The support technology forroadway rock has always posed significant challenges in mining and tunnel engineering. This is particularly true fordeep asymmetrical soft rock roadway, for which no effective and mature reference technology currently exists. This paper provides a comprehensive analysis of the deformation mechanism and support technology fordeep soft rock roadway at the Qingyun mine. Based on field investigation and theoretical analysis, we summarize the deformation mechanism and its influencing factors. Numerical simulation results of excavation indicate that the improved support scheme effectively controls roadway deformation, with 68.0 mm for the roof, 26.3 mm for the floor, and 45.12 and 44.98 mm for the two sidewalls. Moreover, the plastic zone depth is significantly reduced by 0.5 m to 2.0 m of roadway. Field monitoring data, including peephole, acoustic velocity, and bolt stress measurement, strongly support the positive impact of the improved support on surrounding rock deformation and stability. As the working face advances, the influence of mining disturbance on the roadway increases. Compared to primary support, the deformation of improved support scheme reduces by 17 to 65 mm. The outline of the loose circle under the improved support scheme is mapped, showing an overall depth reduction of 0.58 and 0.20 m compared to conditions without support and with primary support, respectively. We hope this research serves as a valuable reference for other soft rock engineering projects.

Antioxidants, both glutathione (GSH) and astaxanthin (AX), possess beneficial applications in animal growth and antioxidant properties. In this study, three experimental diets with isoproteic and isolipidic were formulated, the control diet (CON), the control diet added with 0.03% Carophyll Pink (contains 10% AX), the control diet added with 0.67% glutathione-rich yeast hydrolysate (GYH, contains 5% GSH). The effects of AX and GYH on the growth performance, antioxidant capacity and lipid metabolism of Litopenaeus vannamei (0.36 +/- 0.01 g) were compared. After an 8-week feeding experiment, shrimp growth and intestinal morphology showed significantly better performance in the GYH group. Both dietary AX and GYH regulated the expression levels of genes related to lipid metabolism, increased antioxidant enzyme activities and total antioxidant capacity of shrimp andreduced haemolymph malondialdehyde and hepatopancreas reactive oxygen species production. Compared with the CON and GYH groups, dietary AX significantly increased the redness (a*) and yellowness (b*) values of cooked shrimp. Based on the evaluation of the above results, AX and GYH were comparable in terms of antioxidant performance, and AX was superior in improving the red body colour of shrimp, but GYH has more significant advantages in promoting shrimp growth and intestinal development. Therefore, supplementation with GYH or AX in diet presents specific benefits to the growth, body colour and antioxidant of L. vannamei.

The effects of feeding on insect larvae treated with pesticide on the biological and biochemical characteristics of Arma chinensis were investigated. In the F0 generation, the developmental duration and preoviposition period were shortened, the average number of eggs laid was reduced, and the net reproductive rate and mean generation time were significantly lower in the treatment group compared to those in the control group. The average number of eggs laid by the F1 generation of A. chinensis was lower in the treatment group. The intrinsic rates of increase, finite rates of increase and net reproductive rates were significantly lower in the F1 generation in the treatment group than those in the control group. The activities of CarE and GST were significantly induced, while the activity of AChE was inhibited in the A. chinensis in the treatment group. The activities of trypsin and THL were significantly induced in the treatment group, while the activity of LPS was not significantly changed. At the population level, Enterococcaceae were cultured only from the intestines of the A. chinensis in the treatment group. At the genus level, in addition to Serratia, Yokenella and Klebsiella, which were consistent with the control group, the genus Enterococcus was also cultured in the treatment group. When controlling P. rapae in the field, pesticides should be reasonably selected, and an appropriate time should be chosen for the release of A. chinensis to reduce the impact on natural enemies and to achieve synergistic chemical and biological control.

Given the significant greenhouse effect of SF6, the C4F7N-CO2-O-2 mixture has been identified as one of the most promising eco-friendly arc-extinguishing gases. Switching arcs typically exhibit pronounced non-local thermodynamic equilibrium (NLTE) phenomena in the peripheral regions and at the current zero-crossing point, thereby influencing the thermophysical properties of the plasma. To investigate the impact of NLTE conditions, the thermodynamic properties and transport coefficients of two-temperature (2-T) C4F7N-CO2-O-2 plasma were calculated under the local chemical equilibrium assumption. The results indicate that NLTE conditions significantly affect the properties of the mixture by altering its composition andparticle energy, often having a more substantial impact than pressure variations. The generation of CO plays a critical role in shaping the thermodynamic and transport parameters of the plasma due to its molecular stability, particularly under non-equilibrium states. To maximise the arc-extinguishing performance of the gas, recommended oxygen mixing ratios are proposed. The results provide fundamental data for 2-T magnetohydrodynamic modelling of C4F7N gas mixtures in arc simulations.

A time-fractional diffusion problem with a Caputo time-fractional derivative of order alpha is an element of (0, 1) is considered, the solution of which is typically weakly singular at the initial time. For this problem, we give an H-1-norm analysis of the stability and convergence of an integral-averaged L1 method on nonuniform time meshes. The averaging of the L1 scheme that we use is known as the L1(+) or L1rline> scheme. A new positive definiteness result for the integral-averaged L1 fractional-derivative operator is established. It improves the previous positive definiteness results in the literature and plays an important role in the analysis of H-1-norm error of the integral-averaged L1 method. The H-1-norm stability holds for the general nonuniform time meshes, while the H-1-norm convergence is proved for the time graded meshes and the H-1-norm convergence order in time is min{3 + alpha, gamma alpha}/2 for all alpha is an element of (0, 1), where gamma >= 1 is the mesh grading parameter. Two full discretization methods using finite differences and finite elements in space are considered. The theoretical results are illustrated by numerical results.

Meshing temperature analyses of polymer gears reported in the literature mainly concern the effects of various material combinations and loading conditions, as their impacts could be seen in the first few meshing cycles. However, the effects of tooth geometry parameters could manifest as the meshing cycles increase. This study investigated the effects of tooth geometry parameters on the multi-cycle meshing temperature of polyoxymethylene (POM) worm gears, aiming to control the meshing temperature elevation by tuning the tooth geometry. Firstly, a finite element (FE) model capable of separately calculating the heat generation and simulating the heat propagation was established. Moreover, an adaptive iteration algorithm was proposed within the FE framework to capture the influence of the heat generation variation from cycle to cycle. This algorithm proved to be feasible and highly efficient compared with experimental results from the literature and simulatedresults via the full-iteration algorithm. Multi-cycle meshing temperature analyses were conducted on a series of POM worm gears with different tooth geometry parameters. The results reveal that, within the range of 14.5 degrees to 25 degrees, a pressure angle of 25 degrees is favorable forreducing the peak surface temperature and overall body temperature of POM worm gears, which influence flank wear and load-carrying capability, respectively. However, addendum modification should be weighed because it helps with load bearing but increases the risk of severe flank wear. This paper proposes an efficient iteration algorithm for multi-cycle meshing temperature analysis of polymer gears and proves the feasibility of controlling the meshing temperature elevation during multiple cycles by tuning tooth geometry.

The development of rNA interference(rNAi) therapy offers a potential solution for Alzheimer's disease(Ad). However, the brain-blood barrier(BBB) with its selective permeability and pharmacokinetic-related challenges poses restrictions on the delivery of small interfering rNA(si rNA) to the central nervous system(CNS). In this study, we demonstrate that the incorporation of 2'-fluoro(2'-F) substitutions and L-carnitine modification facilitates the self-assembly of si rNA through triple interaction, leading to the formation of nanorings, called LCSF-Nr. Based on the enhanced cellular uptake and lysosomal escape by 2'-F substitution and the transport across the BBB promoted by L-carnitine, the nanorings realized the improved braintargeteddelivery of si rNA, both in zebrafish and mice models. Moreover, our findings highlight the therapeutic potential of LCSF-Nr formulation in an Ad zebrafish model through a synergistic effect of downregulating the β-site APP cleavage enzyme1(BACE1) gene and L-carnitine-mediated neuroprotection, effectively inhibiting pathological processes. Overall, these results suggest that the chemical modification-based si rNA self-assembly strategy enables trans-BBB delivery and presents a concise approach for synergistic therapy of Ad.
