Abstract.This study uses the super-efficiency SBM-Malmquist index framework to measure and decompose the green total factor productivity (MGTFP) of the manufacturing industry in Yibin and Sichuan Province from 2012 to 2022. It then compares the level and changing pattern of green development in Yibin’s manufacturing industry. The results show that Yibin’s manufacturing MGTFP increased steadily during the study period, with an average value of 1.5946, which was higher than Sichuan’s 1.1621. The average tfpch value in Yibin was 1.091, which corresponds to an average annual growth rate of about 9.10%, … Read more →

Abstract.To address the problems of intensified polarization and excessively rapid cycle life degradation of electric vehicle batteries caused by the traditional constant current-constant voltage (CC-CV) fast charging strategy, an optimized reinforcement learning fast charging strategy based on Deep Q-Network (DQN) is proposed. Firstly, a second-order RC equivalent circuit model and an SEI film growth aging model are constructed to accurately characterize the electrochemical properties and life degradation mechanism of batteries during the charging process. Secondly, a reinforcement learning framework … Read more →

Abstract.Background: Hyperuricemia and gout remain clinically important metabolic-inflammatory conditions. Although plant-derived materials such as tart cherry products have been evaluated in human studies, single-ingredient or physically blended products often show inconsistent serum urate effects. We characterized NVTIA™ tart cherry-celery seed-bromelain composite raw material as a carrier-free core-shell system and interpreted its translational relevance against published human evidence on tart cherry and gout-related outcomes. Methods: We prepared the composite by low-temperature … Read more →

Abstract.Magnesium-air batteries are promising low-cost energy systems because of the abundance, high theoretical energy density, and relative safety of magnesium. However, their practical application is limited by severe self-corrosion of the magnesium anode, hydrogen evolution, and the formation of insulating discharge products that increase polarization and reduce anode utilization. This review discusses micro-arc oxidation (MAO), also known as plasma electrolytic oxidation, as a surface-engineering strategy for magnesium-based air-battery anodes. MAO coatings can form ceramic oxide layers that … Read more →

Abstract.Through a comparative analysis of domestic and international QHSE regulatory practices, considering the realities of the technical services industry in petroleum engineering, this paper proposes a path for establishing a new QHSE regulatory mechanism in the context of digital and intelligent technologies. The study confirms that digital and intelligent technologies serve as the core engine driving the paradigm shift in QHSE regulation from a “system-constrained” model to a “data-driven” one. By establishing an intelligent closed-loop system of “perception-early … Read more →
