La flore sauvage du boulevard Dr Henri-Henrot à Reims/Durocortorum : approche carpologique de l’environnement du site et des productions de denrées végétales by Véronique Matterne, Clémence Pagnoux

“…Several species, not particularly common to the carpological assemblages, were identified, in relationship to the environments mentioned: weakly running waterways not prone to pollution, wet meadows, harvesting areas; the significant wealth of the spectrum, as well as the important number of contexts studied undoubtedly explain the presence of these rare species. Several of them are strictly segetal flora, and accompany limestone soil improvements in harvesting practices. …”

Le nivellement des aqueducs de Lyon et leurs aménagements de régulation et de ralentissement : analyse et mise en perspective by Laetitia Borau

“…In addition, a decision had to be made about the type of canal to be built, as this would affect the speed of construction and hence the overall cost of the project, but would also affect ease of maintenance: we can therefore distinguish between the simplest cases –slab-covered concrete canals– and conduits with masonry walls and a vaulted roof through which a maintenance man could walk.The objective here is to put into perspective, on the one hand, the means employed to guarantee a constant slope and to control the flows (regulation and maintenance structures), and on the other hand to overcome the obstacles, particularly the steep slopes (with chutes or dropshafts) and to compare them with other aqueducts in the Roman world, mainly in the western part.The examination of the four conduits demonstrated the small number of regulation and/or decantation structures found across the whole of the Lyon hydraulic network, with three exceptions. …”

Dynamic hierarchical ligand anisotropy for competing macrophage regulation in vivo by Kanghyeon Kim, Sunhong Min, Ramar Thangam, Kyong-Ryol Tag, Hyun-Jeong Lee, Jeongyun Heo, Hwapyung Jung, Thet Thet Swe, Iman Zare, Guosheng Song, Alireza Hassani Najafabadi, Junmin Lee, Hyun-Do Jung, Jong Seung Kim, Sunghoon Hur, Hyun-Cheol Song, Sung-Gyu Park, Kunyu Zhang, Pengchao Zhao, Liming Bian, Se Hoon Kim, Juyoung Yoon, Jae-Pyoung Ahn, Hong-Kyu Kim, Heemin Kang

“…Hierarchical nanostructure construction involves coupling liganded nanoscale isotropic/anisotropic Au (comparable to few integrin molecules-scale) to the surface of microscale isotropic/anisotropic magnetic Fe3O4 (comparable to integrin cluster-scale) and then elastically tethering them to a substrate. Systematic independent tailoring of nanoscale or microscale ligand isotropy versus anisotropy in four different hierarchical nanostructures with constant liganded surface area demonstrates similar levels of integrin molecule bridging and macrophage adhesion on the nanoscale ligand isotropy versus anisotropy. …”

Application of Concentration-Area fractal modeling and artificial neural network to identify Cu, Zn±Pb geochemical anomalies in Hashtjin area, NW of Iran by Ali Imamalipour, Hamed Ebrahimi, Amir reza Abdollahpur

“…The flowchart of this study is as follows: 1- First single-element geochemical maps of Pb, Zn, Cu, Au, As, Fe, and Ba elements were prepared, and to incorporate the minimum and maximum values, all of them became fuzzy to be in the range of (0 and 1). 2- Geochemical maps were combined using the fuzzy gamma operator. 3- The deep autoencoder method was implemented on the resulting map, and the reconstructed output was obtained. 4- Using the fractal concentration-area method, the final map of mineral prospectivity maps was prepared. …”
