Neurophysiological evidence of single-shot semantic mapping in the developing brain by Marina J. Vasilyeva, Veronika M. Knyazeva, Elena D. Artemenko, Elena A. Vershinina, Ekaterina S. Garbaruk, Ekaterina S. Garbaruk, Maria Yu Boboshko, Maria Yu Boboshko, Aleksander A. Aleksandrov, Yury Shtyrov, Yury Shtyrov

“…This process is to a large degree mediated by a neurocognitive mechanism known as «fast mapping» (FM) which allows the child to quickly map new words onto neural representations after even a single exposure to them, using context-driven inference. However, the neurophysiological bases of this mechanism are still poorly understood. …”

Study on scour simulation and boundary condition conversion technology for a shallow foundation bridge by Gangping Fan, Huanzhe Li, Tianzhuo Wang, Jian Che, Xing Li, Chunyang Dou, Tong Wu

“…To prevent and mitigate scouring risks, this paper investigates the riverbed scouring characteristics of shallow foundation bridges under different hydrological conditions.The study found that under high water levels and flow velocities, scour depth significantly increased.Under extreme hydrological conditions, a horseshoe vortex forms at the base of the front end of the bridge pier, causing scour pits on both sides of the upstream face of the foundation, which is the main cause of foundation voids that first appear at 2580 s with a maximum scour depth of -2.51 m and a void area of 0.5%, continuing to increase over time.Based on simulated scouring data, this study proposes a method for converting boundary conditions from a scouring model to a mechanical model. …”
