Automatic interpretation of geometric information of discontinuities and its influence on the stability of highly-jointed rock slopes

open access: yesJournal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering
The discrete fracture system of a rock mass plays a crucial role in controlling the stability of rock slopes. To fully account for the geometric shape and distribution characteristics of jointed rock masses, terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) was employed ...

Stability of Rock Pillars with Singular and Persistent Discontinuities [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Applied Sciences, 2012
Problem statement: The strength of rock pillars in the presence of si ngle, persistent, natural discontinuities can seriously be compromise d and lead the pillar to collapse because of instability along the discontinuity itself. Approach: A specific analysis method for this kind of problem has been set up in this study to evaluate t he stability of ...

Redefining Therapies for Drug‐Resistant Tuberculosis: Synergistic Effects of Antimicrobial Peptides, Nanotechnology, and Computational Design

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Antimicrobial peptide (AMP)‐loaded nanocarriers provide a multifunctional strategy to combat drug‐resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis. By enhancing intracellular delivery, bypassing efflux pumps, and disrupting bacterial membranes, this platform restores phagolysosome fusion and macrophage function.

Directed transport of active particles over asymmetric energy barriers

open access: yes, 2014
We theoretically and numerically investigate the transport of active colloids to target regions, delimited by asymmetric energy barriers. We show that it is possible to introduce a generalized effective temperature that is related to the local variance ...

Real‐Time 3D Ultrasound Imaging with an Ultra‐Sparse, Low Power Architecture

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This article presents a novel, ultra‐sparse ultrasound architecture that paves the way for wearable real‐time 3D imaging. By integrating a unique convolutional array with chirped data acquisition, the system achieves high‐resolution volumetric scans at a fraction of the power and hardware complexity.

Temporal dynamics of stream fish assemblages and the role of spatial scale in quantifying change

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2020
Spatial grain of studies of communities is often based on arbitrary convention. Few studies have examined how spatial scaling of grain size affects estimates of compositional change over time, despite its broad implications. Fish assemblage structure was

Temporal Passage [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
This article explains that time flow is a subjective, mind-dependent phenomenon. The paper describes the nature of the subjective "present" of consciousness, and defines the mechanism that brings about this present's motion from past to future.
