Multiple injection techniques to stimulate complex fracture networks in coal reservoirs: A case study on gas disaster reduction of subsurface coal mine in southwest China

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
An experimental device for physical simulation of hydraulic fracturing, comprising: a load‐bearing mechanism with multiple interconnected plates that collectively form an sample chamber; a load‐generating mechanisms, with multiple load‐generating mechanisms arranged within the experimental chamber.

The Ecological U‐Turn in Nordic Forestry: Policy Learning, Measurement, and the Retrenchment of Ecological Ambitions

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Since the 1990s, environmental policy has shifted toward ecosystem protection and biodiversity conservation, a development often described as an ecological turn. This article argues that in practice this turn has taken the form of an ecological “U‐turn,” as environmental ambitions are subordinated to production‐oriented objectives.

Gale duality, decoupling, parameter homotopies, and monodromy

, 2014
Numerical Algebraic Geometry (NAG) has recently seen significantly increased application among scientists and mathematicians as a tool that can be used to solve nonlinear systems of equations, particularly polynomial systems. With the many recent advances in the field, we can now routinely solve problems that could not have been solved even 10 years ...

Z-linear Gale duality and poly weighted spaces (PWS)

Linear Algebra and its Applications, 2016
The present paper is devoted to discussing Gale duality from the Z-linear algebraic point of view. This allows us to isolate the class of Q-factorial complete toric varieties whose class group is torsion free, here called poly weighted spaces (PWS), as an interesting generalization of weighted projective spaces (WPS).

Structural changes in the interannual variability of extreme autumn precipitation in eastern Spain and the weakening of synoptic forcing

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Total autumn precipitation in eastern Spain remains stable between 1950 and 2024, masking a substantial internal redistribution between ordinary and extreme rainfall. While torrential precipitation (Rp95) increases and ordinary precipitation (Ro) decreases, the extreme contribution index (Cext) shows a significant positive trend and a structural shift ...

“Just My Presence, Just Using These Words Is Not Enough”: Shifting from Identity‐Based Inclusion to Structural Transformation in Language Education

TESOL Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract This study focuses on 17 in‐service language teachers who graduated from a social justice‐oriented MA program in Teaching Languages to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL) and Teaching Foreign Languages (TFL) at a US higher education institution. Drawing on multiple data sources that connect participants' pre‐service and in‐service experiences,

Type II duality symmetries in six dimensions [PDF]

, 1996
We discuss the different discrete duality symmetries in six dimensions that act within and between (i) the 10-dimensional heterotic string compactified on T^4, (ii) the 10-dimensional type IIA string compactified on K3 and (iii) the 10-dimensional type ...
