This study proposes an exponentially‐constrained Gaussian mixture model (EcGMM) to quantify vertical fracture heterogeneity in stratified roof strata. The model integrates a piecewise exponential decay term capturing global stress dissipation with Gaussian components representing localized fracture intensification at lithological interfaces.

3D Knitted Interfacial Solar Steam Generator for High‐Efficiency and Long‐Term Seawater Desalination
The hydrophobic bottom provides buoyancy to keep the evaporator floating, and directional vertical spacer yarn supplies sufficient water. The knitted photothermal layer efficiently converts solar energy via multiple light reflections. The Marangoni effect induced by edge yarn accelerates the backflow of salt ions, preventing salt accumulation in the ...

Effect of irrigation machines on soil compaction
The analysis of soil compaction with chassis of a wide-span irrigation machine Valmont was determined. The sprinkler had 12 two-wheeled chassis (size of tyre 14.9'' × 24''). During the evaluation of soil compaction, we monitored the values of penetration

Continuously Moving Mechanical Sprinkler Systems [PDF]
Most sprinkler systems apply water while the lateral and sprinkler are stationary. Mechanisation of farm operations as labor costs in- crease, together with the shortage of labor for moving portable laterals and sprinklers, has resulted in improved and ...

Abstract This Phase I study evaluated the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of a 30‐min topiramate injection (intravenous [IV] TPM) infusion compared with oral topiramate (oral TPM) in healthy adult participants. In this randomized, open‐label, dose escalation, crossover study with 37 healthy participants received single doses of 50, 100, or ...
