An Improved Integral Response Deformation Method for Seismic Response Analysis of Underground Structures Considering Far-Field Effects by Xin Bao, Shiwei Wang, Boyang Zhu, Dongyang Wang

“…In the seismic analysis of underground structures, the traditional integral response displacement method may misestimate far-field constraint effects because of the empirical placement of cutoff boundaries, leading to inaccuracies and a significant increase in computational costs. This study proposes a cutoff boundary distance criterion of three times the structural size, effectively eliminating boundary reflection errors. …”

Sucrose-driven carbon redox rebalancing eliminates the Crabtree effect and boosts energy metabolism in yeast by Zhiqiang Xiao, Yifei Zhao, Yongtong Wang, Xinjia Tan, Lian Wang, Jiwei Mao, Siqi Zhang, Qiyuan Lu, Fanglin Hu, Shasha Zuo, Juan Liu, Yang Shan

“…However, the manifestation of the Crabtree effect results in substantial carbon loss and energy inefficiency, which significantly diminishes product yield and escalates substrate costs in microbial cell factories. To address this challenge, we introduce the sucrose phosphorolysis pathway and delete the phosphoglucose isomerase gene PGI1, effectively decoupling glycolysis from respiration and facilitating the metabolic transition of yeast to a Crabtree-negative state. …”

A Big-Data-Driven Framework for Parking Demand Estimation in Urban Central Districts by Yunlin Guan, Yun Wang, Xuedong Yan, Haonan Guo, Yu Zhou

“…Most previous published studies were based primarily on parking survey data, which is both costly and inaccurate. Owing to limited data sources and simplified models, most of the previous research estimates the parking demand without consideration for the relationship between parking demand, land use, and traffic attributes, thereby causing a lack of accuracy. …”
