As a result of military actions, some territories of Ukraine have suffered technogenic loading on the environment. Of special concern is disturbed agricultural soils that are significant for food safety of the country. Soils affected by military actions require control of contamination and restoration of fertility. The studies revealed the advantages of cultivating honey clover (Melilotus albus) in war-affected soils and controlling content of heavy metals in soils and corbicular pollen from honey clover cultivated in those soils. In gray forest average-loamy soils that had been affected by mi...

Miscanthus lutarioriparius(M. lutarioriparius) in Lake Dongting District are in the situation of being discarded due to the government’s environmental policy, the decomposition of which will bring another pollution risk. The purpose of this study is to environmentally analyze the production of M. lutarioriparius-based oriented strand particleboards(M.OSB) as alternatives to the conventional artificial boards. The production systems were evaluated from a cradle-to-gate perspective using the Life Cycle Assessment(LCA)methodology. Our results showed that the M.OSB had an overall better profile th...

As a new method of multibody system dynamics,the transfer matrix method of multibody system has the following characteristics: without the global dynamics equation of system,low order of matrix involved,high effciency.It has been widely used in the dynamic design of many complex mechanical systems,such as multiple launch rocket system,self-propelled artillery system,and warship gun system.In this paper,the advances in transfer matrix method of multibody system,including linear transfer matrix method of multibody system,discrete time transfer matrix method of multibody system,transfer matrix me...

The overall purpose of this new structure is to speed up the review process while maintaining (or improving) the overall quality of the journal.

This study examines the discourse of resistance constructed in the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake coverage by Chinese state media. It tries to explore how media discourse can be constructed to facilitate crisis control in natural disaster situations. Set in a context of nationalistic culture in contemporary China, this paper dissects how state media in China frame narratives and represent meanings to construct national cultural identity in earthquake coverage. In analysing this discursive process, this research adopts the methodology of critical discourse analysis and cluster criticism; the findings...

A distributionally robust estimator for the maximum expected value term is proposed, which allows us to precisely control the level of estimation bias introduced and indicates that 2RA Q-learning often performs better than existing methods.

The CD4 count, year of enrollment, and an efavirenz-based regimen were significantly associated with retention, and a decline in ART retention in the third year was revealed.
