A detailed redescription of a skeletally immature ‘Redondasaurus’ suggests ontogenetic transformations in the taxon mirror phytosaurian morphological evolution

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The study of morphological evolution is fundamentally tied to ontogeny, yet studies of these heterochronic processes in the fossil record are rare. Fossils belonging to an ontogenetic series are difficult to assign to an ontogenetic stage due to inconsistent proxies for skeletal ages, challenging to taxonomically assign due to morphological ...

3D anatomical atlas of the heads of male and female adult Chamaeleo calyptratus

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
The veiled chameleon is a model organism in reptile development research. Utilizing contrast‐enhanced microCT and deep learning segmentation models, we have generated the first digital atlases of the skull, nervous system, cranial muscles and hyolingual muscles.

Optimization simulation of fracturing parameters under different soft/hard coal + surrounding rocks in Yuwu Mine

Meikuang Anquan
In order to improve the effectiveness of hydraulic fracturing, a numerical simulation software for hydraulic fracturing was used to address the issues of large differences in strength and poor compatibility between hydraulic fracturing parameters and ...

New craniodental materials of Falcarius utahensis (Theropoda: Therizinosauria) reveal patterns of intraspecific variation and cranial evolution in early coelurosaurians

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite documented ecomorphological shifts toward an herbivorous diet in several coelurosaurian lineages, the evolutionary tempo and mode of these changes remain poorly understood, hampered by sparse cranial materials for early representatives of major clades. This is particularly true for Therizinosauria, with representative crania best known

Mechanism of grouped collapse of thick and hard roof for gob-side entry retaining combined backfill in fully-mechanized caving face

Meitan xuebao
A large range of caving roof of gob-side entry retaining is easy to cause impact damage of the roadside backfill body. In order to ensure the stability of gob-side entry retaining, different from the traditional large-angle inclined roof cutting method ...

The coelurosaur theropods of the Romualdo formation, early Cretaceous (Aptian) of Brazil: Santanaraptor placidus meets Mirischia asymmetrica

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The upper carbonate concretion levels of the Romualdo Formation (Aptian, Brazil) have yielded several theropod dinosaur remains, including spinosaurids and the coelurosaurs Santanaraptor placidus and Mirischia asymmetrica, the phylogenetic affinities of which are controversial.

Analysis of the Influence Characteristics of the Support Stability of a Fully Mechanized Coal Mining Face under the Hard Roof Mining Pressure

Shock and Vibration, 2021
The conditions of the hard roof in my country vary greatly, ranging from a few meters to tens of meters or even hundreds of meters in thickness. The coal reserves under the hard roof account for about one-third of the total reserves.

The Control Mechanism of the Coal Pillar Width on the Mechanical State of Hard Roofs

Mathematics
This study addresses the critical challenge of optimizing coal pillar width in burst-prone mines with thick, hard roof strata, balancing resource recovery, roadway stability, and coal burst mitigation. Through integrated analytical modeling and rigorously calibrated numerical simulations, the research reveals the complex interplay between pillar width,

An ontological morphological phylogenetic framework for living and extinct ray‐finned fishes (Actinopterygii)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The ray‐finned fishes include one out of every two species of living vertebrates on Earth and have an abundant fossil record stretching 380 million years into the past. The division of systematic knowledge of ray‐finned fishes between paleontologists working on extinct animals and neontologists studying extant species has obscured the ...

Evolution of roof treatment processes from blasting to hydraulic fracturing to prevent rockburst in thick-hard roof coal mines in Xinjiang, China

Frontiers in Earth Science
Rockburst prevention poses a major challenge in coal mining, with thick and hard roof strata being the primary cause of rockbursts. To analyze the feasibility and effectiveness of using hydraulic fracturing as an alternative to blasting methods for ...
