When ceramsite sand is used as a 3DP material to produce a mold (core), the printed layer is prone to deviation from the original location. In this study, the continuous stacking of the printed part deviation was termed as pushing dislocation, and a physical model was designed to investigate the pushing dislocation mechanism.

Preventing Agricultural Non-Point Source Pollution in China: The Effect of Environmental Regulation with Digitization.

Environmental regulation (ER) is essential to preventing agricultural non-point source pollution (ANSP). Prior research has focused on the effect of ER on agricultural pollution (AP), but little is known about the impact of ER following digitization on preventing AP, particularly ANSP. Based on the spatial heterogeneity, the effect of ER was examined using a geographic detector tool with provincial panel data from 2010 to 2020 in rural China.

The Agricultural Green Production following the Technological Progress: Evidence from China.

This study performs the spatial Durbin model (SDM) and threshold model to analyze the efficiency of agricultural green production following technological progress from 1998 through 2019. The SDM supports a nonlinear contribution of technological progress spillover to agricultural green total factor productivity (GTFP), exacerbated by upgrading agricultural structure. Moreover, the threshold model confirms that technological progress has a single threshold effect on agricultural GTFP with the rationalization of the agrarian system as a threshold variable; meanwhile, the contribution of technological progress to agricultural GTFP is less than that of agricultural total factor productivity.

Discovery of 2-((2-methylbenzyl)thio)-6-oxo-4-(3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl)-1,6-dihydropyrimidine-5-carbonitrile as a novel and effective bromodomain and extra-terminal (BET) inhibitor for the treatment of sepsis.

Sepsis has long been a major health problem worldwide. It threatens the lives of hospitalized patients and has been one of the leading causes of death in hospitalized patients over the past decades. BRD4 has been regarded as a potential target for sepsis therapy, for its critical role in the transcriptional expression of NF-κB pathway-dependent inflammatory factors.

Effect of intercity electric multiple unit projects on regional economic development: evidence from a natural experiment in Zhongshan city, China.

This paper analyzes the impact of the opening of an Intercity EUM (Electric Multiple Units) line, Guangzhou-Zhuhai Intercity Mass Rapid Transit, on GDP and population. By constructing the difference-in-difference (DID) model for whole 24 counties in Zhongshan of China, we found that with the opining of Intercity EMU, GDP growth and population inflow of the counties with Intercity EMU stations are significantly higher than those of without stations. Based on the Sharp Regression Discontinuity (SRD) Approach, we found that with the opining of Intercity EMU, the ratio of Guangzhou's GDP to that of other regions has obviously expanded, thus the opening of Intercity EMU has obviously widened the disparity of regional economic scale.

Macroscopic and Strong Ribbons of Functionality-Rich Metal Oxides from Highly Ordered Assembly of Unilamellar Sheets.

The strong interest in macroscopic graphene and/or carbon nanotube (CNT) fiber has highlighted that anisotropic nanostructured materials are ideal components for fabricating fiber assemblies. Prospectively, employing two-dimensional (2D) crystals or nanosheets of functionality-rich transition metal oxides would notably enrich the general knowledge for desirable fiber constructions and more importantly would greatly broaden the scope of functionalities. However, the fibers obtained up to now have been limited to carbon-related materials, while those made of 2D crystals of metal oxides have not been achieved, probably due to the intrinsically low mechanical stiffness of a molecular sheet of metal oxides, which is only few hundredths of that for graphene.
