Structural-functional brain network coupling during cognitive demand reveals intelligence-relevant communication strategies by Johanna L. Popp, Jonas A. Thiele, Joshua Faskowitz, Caio Seguin, Olaf Sporns, Kirsten Hilger

“…Using diffusion-weighted and functional magnetic resonance imaging data from 764 participants of the Human Connectome Project (replication: N 1  = 126, N 2  = 180), we model SC-FC coupling with similarity and communication measures that capture functional interactions unfolding on top of structural brain networks. By accounting for variations in brain region-specific neural signaling strategies, we show that individual differences in SC-FC coupling patterns predict individual intelligence scores. …”

Cases of possible structural-stratigraphic accumulations in the Oriente Basin, analysis on their accumulation mechanisms and implication for future exploration by Feng Ding, Guangfu Wang, Mingxi Xue, Yu Sun, Yaping Liu, Jianfang Sun, Fayou Li

“…In the other two, the lateral seals are apparently discontinuous and cannot provide a complete barrier at the up-dip of the structures. Possible factors for the formation of those untypical structural-stratigraphic accumulations are studied, such as formation water flow and water head variations, basin and field structure evolution patterns, oil generation and charging history etc. …”

“Epystemologically Different Worlds”: from J. Uexküll to G. Vakariu by Egor V. Falev

“…It is shown that both Husserl’s concept of “lifeworld,” Heidegger’s “world-formation,” and Varela’s “structural coupling,” on the one hand, go back to Uexküll’s concept of Umwelt, on the other hand, can be summarized under the general notion of “epistemologically different worlds.” …”

Effects of Structural and Seismic Factors on the Constant-Strength Ductility Spectra Based on NGA-West2 Database by Jinjun Hu, Qinghui Lai, Xuan Liu, Lili Xie

“…Conclusions are drawn based on the mean constant-strength ductility spectra. (1) With respect to the effects of structural factors, the variation trend of the ductility spectra is highly consistent with increasing T, and the ductility spectra are usually larger for larger ζ and smaller Cy and k2. (2) With respect to the seismic factors, the ductility spectra show obvious differences in different periods; however, some parameters, such as PGA, have no influence on the ductility spectra. …”
