The features of magnetic reconnection with a streaming flow have been investigated on the basis of compressible resistive magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) model. The super-Alfvenic streaming flow largely enhances magnetic reconnection. The maximum reconnection rate is almost four times larger with super-Alfvenic streaming flow than sub-Alfvénic streaming flow. In the nonlinear stage, it is found that there is a pair of shocks observed in the inflow region, which are manifested to be slow shocks for sub-Alfvénic streaming flow, and fast shocks for super-Alfvénic streaming flow. The quasi-period oscillation of reconnection rates in the decaying phase for super-Alfvénic streaming flow is resulted from the different drifting velocities of the shock and the X point.

Generating accurate and contextually rich captions for images and videos is essential for various applications, from assistive technology to content recommendation. However, challenges such as maintaining temporal coherence in videos, reducing noise in large-scale datasets, and enabling real-time captioning remain significant. We introduce MIRA-CAP (Memory-Integrated Retrieval-Augmented Captioning), a novel framework designed to address these issues through three core innovations: a cross-modal memory bank, adaptive dataset pruning, and a streaming decoder.

The importance of optimizing intrathecal drug delivery is highlighted by its potential to improve patient health outcomes. Findings from previous computational studies, based on an individual or a small group, may not be applicable to the wider population due to substantial geometric variability. Our study aims to circumvent this problem by evaluating an individual's cycle-averaged Lagrangian velocity field based on the geometry of their spinal subarachnoid space.

Background And Objectives: Acoustofluidic manipulation of particles and biological cells has been widely applied in various biomedical and engineering applications, including effective separation of cancer cell, point-of-care diagnosis, and cell patterning for tissue engineering. It is often implemented within a polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) microchannel, where standing surface acoustic waves (SSAW) are generated by sending two counter-propagating ultrasonic waves on a piezoelectric substrate.
Methods: In this paper, we develop a full cross-sectional model of the acoustofluidic device using finite element method, simulating the wave excitation on the substrate and wave propagation in both the fluid and the microchannel wall.

Acoustic waves are a possible reusable method to extinguish flames. Previous studies have placed the sound source near the flame or have used standing waves to reach large enough acoustic amplitudes to extinguish it. In this study, a new method is explored: using time reversal in a room to focus transient acoustic waves to the flame to extinguish it.

Cytoplasmic streaming is the bulk flow of cytoplasm observed, not only in plants but also in animal oocytes and embryos. The flow of viscous fluid within the cytoplasm generates forces that re-arrange intracellular organelles, such as mitotic spindles and nuclei, to regulate cell growth, migration, and polarity. Cytoplasmic streaming is established by motor proteins and the viscoelastic cytoskeleton, including the actin filaments and microtubules.
