In this paper, a discrete unified gas kinetic scheme (DUGKS) is proposed for continuum compressible gas flows based on the total energy kinetic model [Guo et al., Phys. Rev. E 75, 036704 (2007)1539-375510.1103/PhysRevE.75.036704]. The proposed DUGKS can be viewed as a special finite-volume lattice Boltzmann method for the compressible Navier-Stokes equations in the double distribution function formulation, in which the mass and momentum transport are described by the kinetic equation for a density distribution function (g), and the energy transport is described by the other one for an energy distribution function (h). To recover the full compressible Navier-Stokes equations exactly, the corresponding equilibrium distribution functions g^{eq} and h^{eq} are expanded as Hermite polynomials up to third and second orders, respectively. The velocity spaces for the kinetic equations are discretized according to the seventh and fifth Gauss-Hermite quadratures. Consequently, the computational efficiency of the present DUGKS can be much improved in comparison with previous versions using more discrete velocities required by the ninth Gauss-Hermite quadrature.

Dry evergreen Afromontane forests are severely threatened due to the expansion of agriculture and overgrazing by livestock. The objective of this study was to investigate the composition of woody species, structure, regeneration status and plant communities in Seqela forest, as well as the relationship between plant community types and environmental variables. Systematic sampling was used to collect vegetation and environmental data from 52 (20 m x 20 m) (400 m2) plots.

Shrews in the genus Episoriculus are among the least-known mammals in China, where representatives occur mainly in the Himalayan and Hengduan mountains. We sequence one mitochondrial and three nuclear genes from 77 individuals referable to this genus, collect morphometric data for five shape and 11 skull measurements from 56 specimens, and use museum collections and GenBank sequences to analyze phylogenetic relationships between this and related genera in an integrated molecular and morphometric approach. Whereas historically anywhere from two to eight species have been recognized in this genus, we conclude that six (Episoriculus baileyi, E.

Regeneration of the injured endometrium, particularly the functional layer, is crucial for the prevention of uterine infertility. At present, clinical treatment using sodium hyaluronate hydrogel injection is limited by its relatively low fluidity, short-term retention, and insufficient bioactive ingredients, so it is necessary to develop an advanced healing-promoting hydrogel. The modulation of the microenvironment by presents a bioactive component that can facilitate the regeneration of the functional layer.

In this work, bridge network model with Rayleigh distribution lifetimes is used. Two main techniques are calculated to upgrade this model: reduction and redundancy techniques. In order to compare the effectiveness of the various approaches, the survival function, the mean time to failure and gamma-fractiles for the original and upgraded model are calculated.

Molecular Docking is a critical task in structure-based virtual screening. Recent advancements have showcased the efficacy of diffusion-based generative models for blind docking tasks. However, these models do not inherently estimate protein-ligand binding strength thus cannot be directly applied to virtual screening tasks.
