The automation of underground articulated vehicles is a critical step in advancing digital and smart mining. Current nonlinear model predictive control (NMPC) controllers face challenges such as delays in turning on large curvature paths and correction lags during the control of underground the Load-Haul-Dump (LHD). To address these issues, this paper proposes a PSO-NMPC control strategy that integrates a particle swarm optimization algorithm (PSO) into the NMPC controller to enhance path tracking for LHDs.

Spinosad, a potent broad-spectrum bioinsecticide produced by , has significant market potential. Despite its effectiveness, the regulatory mechanisms of spinosad biosynthesis remain unclear. Our investigation identified the crucial role of the LysR family transcriptional regulator ORF-L16, located upstream of spinosad biosynthetic genes, in spinosad biosynthesis.

Previous studies have shown that occupational stress may be a risk factor for mental health literacy. In China, preschool teachers are under high pressure; however, few studies have examined the mechanisms that mediate and moderate the relationship between preschool teachers' feelings of stress and their mental health literacy.

Cell wall invertase (CWIN) and sugar transporters both play important roles in carbon allocation and plant development. However, there is little information about the relationship between CWIN and those functionally related sugar transporters during fruit development.

Objective: To screen the active components that act as hypoglycaemic agents in Focke and the underlying mechanisms.
Materials And Methods: Aqueous stem extract of was incubated with MIN6 β-cells, PBS was used as the blank control.
Fruit set is a developmental transition from ovaries to fruitlets that determines yield potential. Cell wall invertase (CWIN) is essential for fruit and seed set, but the underlying molecular basis remains elusive. We addressed this issue by using CWIN-elevated transgenic tomato, focusing on ovaries and fruitlets at 2 d before and after anthesis, respectively.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFCentral to understanding fruit development is to elucidate the processes mediating a successful transition from pre-pollination ovaries to newly set fruit, a key step in establishing fruit yield potential. In tomato, cell wall invertase (CWIN) LIN5 and its inhibitor INH1 are essential for fruit growth. However, the molecular and cellular basis by which they exert their roles in ovary-to-fruit transition remains unknown.

Methods: We employed lentivirus mediated-RNA interference technology to knockdown the endogenous expression of gene COX-2 in human osteosarcoma cells (SaOS2) and analyzed their phenotypical changes. The effects of COX-2 silencing on the proliferation, cell cycle and migration of SaOS2 cells were assessed by thiazolyl blue tetrazolium bromide, flow cytometry and migration assays respectively.
