Sedimentation behaviors of an oblate ellipsoidal particle inside narrow [R/a∈(1.2,2.0)] infinitely long circular tubes are studied by the lattice Boltzmann method, where R and a are the radius of the tube and the length of the semimajor axis of the ellipsoid, respectively. The Archimedes numbers (Ar) up to 70 are considered. Four periodic and two steady sedimentation modes are identified. It is the first time that the anomalous mode has been found in a circular tube for an ellipsoidal particle. The phase diagram of the modes as a function of Ar and R/a is obtained. The anomalous mode is observed in the larger R/a and lower-Ar regime. Through comparisons between the anomalous and oscillatory modes, it is found that R/a plays a critical role for the anomalous mode. Some constrained cases with two steady modes are simulated. It is found that the particle settles faster in the unconstrained modes than in the corresponding constrained modes. This might inspire further study on why the particle adopts a specific mode under a certain circumstance.

Review on Gallium in Coal and Coal Waste Materials: Exploring Strategies for Hydrometallurgical Metal Recovery.

Gallium, a critical and strategic material for advanced technologies, is anomalously enriched in certain coal deposits and coal by-products. Recovering gallium from solid residues generated during coal production and utilization can yield economic benefits and positive environmental gains through more efficient waste processing. This systematic literature review focuses on gallium concentrations in coal and its combustion or gasification by-products, modes of occurrence, gallium-hosting phases, and hydrometallurgical recovery methods, including pretreatment procedures that facilitate metal release from inert aluminosilicate minerals.

Article Synopsis
- The study suggests that autism spectrum disorder and schizophrenia may share overlapping features, particularly regarding minimal self-experience, characterized by altered body ownership and agency.
- A literature review highlighted tools used to assess self-experience in both disorders, revealing that minimal self-disturbances are significant in both, though they manifest differently.
- The findings indicate that these disorders might be part of a shared psychopathological continuum, with common neural mechanisms contributing to self-disturbances across the conditions.
Seq2Seq-based GRU autoencoder for anomaly detection and failure identification in coal mining hydraulic support systems.

In coal mining operations, the stable operation of hydraulic supports is crucial for ensuring mine safety. However, the nonlinear, non-stationary characteristics and noise interference in hydraulic support pressure data pose significant challenges for anomaly detection and fault diagnosis. This study proposes an anomaly detection and failure identification method based on Gated Recurrent Unit Autoencoder (GRU-AE), aimed at achieving anomaly detection in hydraulic support pressure data and equipment failure early warning.

Control of crack propagation is crucial to make tougher heterogeneous materials. As a crack interacts with material heterogeneities, its front distorts and adopts complex tortuous configurations. While the behavior of smooth cracks with straight fronts in homogeneous materials is well understood, the toughening by rough cracks with tortuous fronts in heterogeneous materials remains unsolved.

Nanoelectromechanical systems (NEMS) incorporating atomic or molecular layer van der Waals materials can support multimode resonances and exotic nonlinear dynamics. Here we investigate nonlinear coupling of closely spaced modes in a bilayer (2L) molybdenum disulfide (MoS) nanoelectromechanical resonator. We model the response from a drumhead resonator using equations of two resonant modes with a dispersive coupling term to describe the vibration induced frequency shifts that result from the induced change in tension.
