Many behavioural interactions in real life involve three individuals. When each individual has two alternative strategies, they can be abstracted into mathematical models by means of asymmetric games. In this paper, we explore a special class of asymmetric games satisfying fixed conditions. Firstly, we analyse two solitary interior equilibrium points and provide the judgement condition for their instability based on the Jacobi matrix local stability analysis method. Secondly, we analyse the interior equilibrium points that are continuously distributed within a line and probe into their stability conditions based on generalized Hamiltonian systems theory. Under the circumstances, the stable interior equilibrium point is surrounded by closed orbits in phase space, which presents an observable stable state where two strategies coexist and fluctuate in each of the three game populations. This work enriches the study of asymmetric games' evolutionary dynamics.

Interactions between magma oceans and overlying atmospheres on young rocky planets leads to an evolving feedback of outgassing, greenhouse forcing, and mantle melt fraction. Previous studies have predominantly focused on the solidification of oxidized Earth-similar planets, but the diversity in mean density and irradiation observed in the low-mass exoplanet census motivate exploration of strongly varying geochemical scenarios. We aim to explore how variable redox properties alter the duration of magma ocean solidification, the equilibrium thermodynamic state, melt fraction of the mantle, and atmospheric composition.

Using a pilot-scale chamber with an interior capacity of 340 L, European aspen () wood boards were thermally modified (TM) under pressure in nitrogen at a maximum temperature of 160-170 °C, for 60-180 min, and with an initial nitrogen pressure of 4-5 bar. After the TM process, aspen wood was characterised by dimensional changes, mass loss (ML), equilibrium moisture content (EMC), antiswelling efficiency (ASE), cell wall total water capacity (CWTWC), modulus of rupture (MOR), modulus of elasticity (MOE), and Brinell hardness (BH). This work offers fresh insights into the characteristics of aspen wood following a closed TM process in pressurised nitrogen.

The development of sustainable transportation and communication systems requires an increase in both energy density and capacity retention of Li-batteries. Using substrates forming a solid solution with body-centered cubic Li enhances the cycle stability of anode-less batteries. However, it remains unclear how the substrate microstructure affects the lithiation behavior.

Soft x-ray (SX) tomography is a useful diagnostic in fusion research, and a multi-channel SX diagnostic will be installed in JT-60SA, the largest elongated tokamak in the world. However, in the SX diagnostic of JT-60SA, plasmas will be only viewed from the low field side and the upper side of plasmas; the sight lines are limited, which would be common in future devices as well as JT-60SA. This kind of limited sight lines is not preferred for SX tomography to investigate the spatial structure of magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) modes because inadequate information of plasmas makes artifacts in the reconstructed SX profiles.

Growth-elasticity (also known as morphoelasticity) is a powerful model framework for understanding complex shape development in soft biological tissues. At each instant, by mapping how continuum building blocks have grown geometrically and how they respond elastically to the push-and-pull from their neighbors, the shape of the growing structure is determined from a state of mechanical equilibrium. As mechanical loads continue to be added to the system through growth, many interesting shapes, such as smooth wavy wrinkles, sharp creases, and deep folds, can form on the tissue surface from a relatively flatter geometry.
