Tunneling operations face a significant challenge in managing water inflow into excavated underground spaces, primarily initial or excavating caused discontinuities in tunnel walls.The water flow rate is intricately linked to the geometric shape of the tunnel, making it a crucial consideration during infrastructure design and construction to mitiga
Rice sheath blight is one of the most serious diseases of rice.In the current study, the relationship between morphological traits and sheath blight resistance was investigated by using 1545 recombinant inbred lines.Correlation analysis showed that culm angle, flag leaf angle, flag leaf length and plant height were significantly correlated with she
Dysregulation of body weight maintenance and opioid dependence are often treated as independent disorders.Here, we assessed the effects of both acute and long-term administration of morphine with and without chemogenetic activation of agouti-related peptide (AGRP)-expressing neurons in the arcuate nucleus (ARCAGRP neurons) to elucidate whether morp
We studied the effectiveness of diamond nanoparticles (DNPs) dispersed in water as a lubricant additive between stainless steel plates and sintered tungsten carbide (WC) balls.DNP dispersions with concentrations of 0.01, 0.1 and 1 wt.% were prepared and used as lubricants under a load of 1.88 N, for 240,000 friction cycles.High-friction coefficient
