Study on the fracture characteristics of overlying rock strata under different mining face widths by Zengqiang Yang, Zheng Zheng, M. Hesham El Naggar, Chang Liu

“…The physical experimental results reported in relevant literature have also verified that the overlying rock strata are fractured with trapezoidal structure. Subsequently, the relevant parameters of this trapezoidal spatial structure about overlying rock strata before and after periodic roof weighting are analyzed in detail, and the calculation results show that the height of trapezoidal spatial structure is directly affected by the width of mining face, and the fractured form of rock layers changes from a horizontal “O-X” structure to a vertical “O-X” structure from the bottom up. …”

Theoretical model of homogenized piezoelectric materials with small non-collinear periodic cracks by Jean M. Nianga, D. Marhabi

“…An analytical model for the homogenization of a piezoelectric material with small periodic fissures is proposed on the basis of the method of asymptotic expansions for the elastic displacement, the electric scalar potential and the test functions. Starting from the variational formulation of the three-dimensional problem of linear piezoelectricity, we have at first obtained that concerning a cracked piezoelectric structure, before the implementation of homogenized equations for a piezoelectric structure with a periodic distribution of cracks. …”

Sequence signatures and mRNA concentration can explain two‐thirds of protein abundance variation in a human cell line by Christine Vogel, Raquel de Sousa Abreu, Daijin Ko, Shu‐Yun Le, Bruce A Shapiro, Suzanne C Burns, Devraj Sandhu, Daniel R Boutz, Edward M Marcotte, Luiz O Penalva

“…Sequence features related to translation and protein degradation have an impact similar to that of mRNA abundance, and their combined contribution explains two‐thirds of protein abundance variation. mRNA sequence lengths, amino‐acid properties, upstream open reading frames and secondary structures in the 5′ untranslated region (UTR) were the strongest individual correlates of protein concentrations. …”

Altitudinal Variation in Soil Fungal Community Associated with Alpine <i>Potentilla fruticosa</i> Shrublands in the Eastern Qinghai–Tibet Plateau by Lele Xie, Yushou Ma, Yanlong Wang, Yuan Ma, Yu Liu

“…NMDS analysis showed that there were significant differences among soil fungal community structures at different altitudes. Redundancy analysis (RDA) indicated that available potassium, available phosphorus, and the Shannon–Wiener diversity index were the primary factors influencing the variation in soil fungal communities along the elevation gradient. …”
