Numerical Simulations on the Extinguishing Effect of Water Mist System with Different Parameters of Longitudinal Ventilation in Curve Tunnel Fire

Advances in Civil Engineering, 2021
Once a fire occurs in a long curve tunnel, the mixing of hot smoke flow and cold air leads to turbulence due to the curvature’s impact. This phenomenon results in a greater thermal pressure difference at the fire source and a substantially greater ...

Computational Design and Glycoengineering of Interferon‐Lambda for Nasal Prophylaxis Against Respiratory Viruses

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study presents an engineered human interferon‐lambda (hIFN‐λ) as an intranasal prophylactic against respiratory viruses. By combining AI‐guided backbone redesign and glycoengineering, the authors developed a thermostable, protease‐resistant, and scalable variant with improved mucosal penetration.

Rangewide responses of Mimulus cardinalis to an extreme heat event

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Extreme events are an understudied aspect of ongoing anthropogenic climate change that could play a disproportionate role in the threat that rapid environmental shifts pose to natural populations. Methods We exposed plants originating from seeds that were harvested before (ancestors) and after (descendants) multiple extreme heat events
