High Voltage Electric Pulse Drilling: A Study of Variables through Simulation and Experimental Tests

Energies, 2023
With the deepening of drilling depth, the difficulty of drilling engineering increases gradually due to the complex geological conditions. The traditional mechanical drilling method shows the problems of high energy consumption, low efficiency, long ...

Resonance in rock mass as the key reason of geodynamic phenomena [PDF]

, 2019
Purpose is to develop deformation criterion or predecessors of geodynamic phenomena within rock mass relying upon the systemized experimental data concerning rock behaviour in a volumetric field of compressive stress. Methods.

ATG4B is required for mTORC1‐mediated anabolic activity and is associated with clinical outcomes in non‐small cell lung cancer

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The relationship between anabolic and catabolic processes governing lung cancer cell growth is nuanced. We show that ATG4B, an autophagy regulator, is elevated in lung cancer and that high ATG4B is associated with worse patient outcomes. Targeting ATG4B in cells reduces growth, protein synthesis, and mTORC1 activity, demonstrating a new relationship ...

Second law of thermodynamics and the failure of rock materials [PDF]

, 2001
The relation of nonequilibrium thermodynamics to some failure and fracture theories of rock mechanics is investigated. The basic concepts are given to connect failure to the properties of material equations describing the elastic properties.

Simulation Study on Compound Percussion Frequency Matching Characteristics

Shiyou jixie, 2019
There are many researches on the traditional axial impact rock breaking and torsional impact rock breaking mechanism. But researches on the rock breaking mechanism of compound percussion drilling are few and are still in infancy state.

The Tendency Theory of Causation [PDF]

, 2003
I propose a non-Humean theory of causation with “tendencies” as causal connections. Not, however, as “necessary connexions”: causes are not sufficient, they do not necessitate their effects. The theory is designed to be, not an analysis of the concept of

Near‐Infrared Organic Photovoltaic Electrodes for Subretinal Neurostimulation

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Organic photovoltaic electrodes based on the D18:Y6 blend enable precise and light‐controlled activation of retinal ganglion cells in a degenerating retina. NIR Light‐driven activation of retinal ganglion cells, tunable stimulation parameters, and biocompatibility with human retinal organoids highlight their potential for next‐generation prosthetics ...
