To investigate the dynamic characteristics and safe operation speed threshold of metro train passing through curved bridge (CB) considering resilient wheels, the mechanical connection characteristics of rim and web are discussed firstly. Based on the train-track-bridge interaction theory, the coupled dynamic model of metro train-CB considering resilient wheels is established. Then, the vehicle-bridge coupled dynamic characteristics under the excitation of long-short wave track irregularity are researched.

Vegetation is fundamental to regulating the climate system and ensuring carbon balance. Recognizing the effects of climate change (CC) and human activities (HA) is vital for understanding shifts in vegetation. However, climate time-lag effects are rarely measured, resulting in an inadequate assessment of CC's effects on vegetation dynamics.

Tidal flooding can significantly impact vegetation pixel reflectance of coastal salt marshes, presenting a problem for remote sensing studies of these highly productive ecosystems. The current study aimed to spatially and temporally expand our previously developed Flooding in Landsat Across Tidal Systems (FLATS) model to detect and analyze the long-term changes in flooded marsh pixels in Landsat 5-9 imagery. As the FLATS index is only calibrated for Landsat 8, our goal was to expand the use of FLATS to a greater range of Landsat imagery and facilitate the masking of flooded pixels in long-term time series of vegetation indices.

Background: Large language model (LLM) artificial intelligence chatbots using generative language can offer smoking cessation information and advice. However, little is known about the reliability of the information provided to users.
Objective: This study aims to examine whether 3 ChatGPT chatbots-the World Health Organization's Sarah, BeFreeGPT, and BasicGPT-provide reliable information on how to quit smoking.

Melatonin, renowned for regulating sleep-wake cycles, also exhibits notable anti-aging properties for the skin. Synthesized in the pineal gland and various tissues including the skin, melatonin's efficacy arises from its capacity to combat oxidative stress and shield the skin from ultraviolet (UV)-induced damage. Moreover, it curbs melanin production, thereby potentially ameliorating hyperpigmentation.
