Numerical assessments of scour depth predictions downstream of box culverts under various flow and blockage conditions by Kaywan Othman Ahmed, Mohammad Reza Kavianpour, Ata Amini, Younes Aminpour

“…The analysis revealed that predictions from numerical models corresponded closely with experimental outcomes, although the scour depths calculated by the models were generally lower than those observed under both steady and unsteady flow conditions. While blockage rates notably impacted scour patterns in the first hydrograph of unsteady flows, increasing blockage percentages did not reliably result in proportional increases in scour depth, as seen in the second hydrograph for unsteady and both steady flow conditions.…”

Case report: Biphasic autonomic response in decompression sickness: HRV and sinoatrial findings by Gerald Schmitz

“…BackgroundDecompression sickness (DCS) may involve neurological and cardiovascular systems, but cardiac autonomic dysfunction is rarely documented. Heart rate variability (HRV) can provide insight into autonomic modulation in such cases, particularly when incorporating advanced nonlinear and dynamic techniques.CaseWe present a 35-year-old recreational diver who developed neurological DCS and persistent bradycardia following multiple consecutive dives. …”

Formation of productivity of binary and single-species cenosis in the conditions of the Western Forest-Steppe by N. М. RUDАVSКА, H. S. КОNYК, А. М. SHUVАR, L. L. BЕHЕN, О. F. ТYМCHYSHYN, H. М. DОRОТА

“…Mineral fertilizer N32P32K32 ensured the formation of a greater number of beans, the mass and number of grains in the ear, and plant productivity, but had a negative effect on the process of root nodule formation: in mixtures with vetch, their mass decreased by 0.82–0.84 g/plant (to 0.52–0.66 g), in mixtures with lupine – by 0.07–0.17 g/plant (to 2.29–2.36 g). The same pattern was observed in single-species crops. Reduction of the seeding rate of the grain component by 1 million germinated seeds/ha in mixtures with legumes contributed to the increase in the number of grains in the ear (panicle) and seeds in the bean pod. …”

Physics-based simulation of seismicity based on fault kinematic models: a case study of the Northern Shanxi Rift, North China by Shangwu Song, Yuhang Li, Ming Hao, Peng Han, Ke Jia, Qingliang Wang

“…In contrast, the North Hengshan fault exhibits the lowest CoV value, indicating relatively stable seismicity and a quasi-periodic pattern. Correlation analysis between fault slip rates and recurrence interval variability reveals that faults with lower slip rates tend to exhibit stronger clustering behavior, while faults with higher slip rates tend to exhibit a more pronounced quasi-periodic pattern. …”
