Nanopatterning complex uneven surface of numerous functional devices to improve their performance is significantly appealing; however, it is extremely challenging. This study proposes a discretely-supported transfer nanoimprint technique to fabricate nanostructures on complex device surfaces containing multi-spatial frequencies. First, a discretely-supported nanoimprint template was designed based on the built energy criterion. A contact fidelity of over 99% was achieved between the designed template and the targeted complex uneven substrate surface. Next, the prefilled nanostructures on the template were transferred to the target surface after contact. By precisely controlling the amount of micro-droplet jetting on the template on-demand, the accumulation of the polymer in the micro-valley sites on the complex substrate was avoided, thus maintaining the morphology and generating function of the devices. Finally, high-quality Fresnel lenses with broadband wide-directional antireflection and excellent imaging performance were developed by imprinting subwavelength-tapered nanostructures on the relief surface.

Thermoinhibition, the suppression of seed germination by high temperatures, is an adaptive trait that ensures successful seedling establishment in natural environments. While beneficial for wild plants, thermoinhibition can adversely affect crop yields due to uneven and reduced germination rates, particularly in the face of climate change. To understand the genetic basis of thermoinhibition, we conducted a comprehensive genetic analysis of a diverse panel of Lactuca spp.

Article Synopsis
- The main challenges of detecting targets with UAVs include small image sizes, dense distributions of targets, and uneven category representation, along with hardware constraints affecting model complexity and accuracy.
- A new small target detection method using an improved YOLOv8 algorithm is introduced, enhancing feature fusion with a bi-directional feature pyramid network (BiFPN), and replacing the C2f module with a C3Ghost module to lower computational demands.
- Additional enhancements like a channel attention mechanism and an improved MPDIoU loss function boost the model's ability to learn from difficult samples, yielding significant improvements in mean accuracy, precision, and recall on the VisDrone dataset.

The large amount of unfused powder that remains on the surface of Ti6AL4V porous scaffolds prepared by selective laser melting technology is a common problem. Therefore, this article investigated the effects of three different chemical polishing processes on the surface state, pore structure, and mechanical properties of small pore size scaffold materials at different polishing times in the field of implantable medical devices. The results show that the overall treatment effect of the simple chemical polishing process is poor, the internal treatment depth of porous support is insufficient and uneven, and the overall mechanical properties of the sample with the same porosity are average.

The design of drill pipe joint thread with unequal taper is proposed to investigate the fracture failure of the API NC38 used in the drill pipe joint of the SU36-8-4H2 well. The effect of changes in thread taper on the stress distribution and mechanical properties of drill pipe joints is analyzed and compared with the API standard thread to determine the optimal thread structure with unequal taper. The results reveal highly concentrated stress at the last engaged thread root of API NC38 single-shoulder thread (SUT) may cause early yield failure of the joint threads.
