Abstract Predictive maintenance (PdM) is vital for ensuring the reliability, safety, and cost efficiency of heavy-duty vehicle fleets. However, real-world sensor data are often highly imbalanced, noisy, and temporally irregular, posing significant challenges to model robustness and deployment. Using multivariate time-series data from Scania trucks, this study proposes a novel PdM framework that integrates efficient feature summarization with cost-sensitive hierarchical classification. First, the proposed last_k_summary method transforms recent operational records into compact statistical and trend-based descriptors while preserving missingness, allowing LightGBM to leverage its inherent split rules without ad-hoc imputation. Then, a two-stage LightGBM framework is developed… More >

Abstract As circuit feature sizes approach the nanoscale, traditional Copper (Cu) interconnects face significant hurdles posed by rising resistance-capacitance (RC) delay, electromigration, and high power dissipation. These limitations impose constraints on the scalability and reliability of future semiconductor technologies. Our paper describes the new Vertical multilayer Aluminium Boron Nitride Nanoribbon (AlBN) interconnect structure, integrated with Density functional theory (DFT) using first-principles calculations. This study explores AlBN-based nanostructures with doping of 1Cu, 2Cu, 1Fe (Iron), and 2Fe for the application of Very Large Scale Integration (VLSI) interconnects. The AlBN structure utilized the advantages of vertical multilayer interconnects… More >

Abstract With the rapid development of digital culture, a large number of cultural texts are presented in the form of digital and network. These texts have significant characteristics such as sparsity, real-time and non-standard expression, which bring serious challenges to traditional classification methods. In order to cope with the above problems, this paper proposes a new ASSC (ALBERT, SVD, Self-Attention and Cross-Entropy)-TextRCNN digital cultural text classification model. Based on the framework of TextRCNN, the Albert pre-training language model is introduced to improve the depth and accuracy of semantic embedding. Combined with the dual attention mechanism, the… More >

Abstract This study explores theoretical insights and experimental results on monitoring load-carrying capacity degradation in bridge spans through frequency analysis. Experiments were conducted on real bridge structures, including the Binh Thuan Bridge, focusing on analyzing the power spectral density (PSD) of vibration signals under random traffic loads. Detailed digital models of various bridge spans with different structural designs and construction periods were developed to ensure diversity. The study utilized PSD to analyze the vibration signals from the bridge spans under various loading conditions, identifying the vibration frequencies and the corresponding response regions. The research correlated the… More >

Abstract Maintaining the structural integrity of parallel natural gas pipelines during leakage-induced jet fires remains a critical engineering challenge. Existing methods often fail to account for the complex interactions among heat transfer, material behavior, and pipeline geometry, which can lead to overly simplified and potentially unsafe assessments. To address these limitations, this study develops a multiphysics approach that integrates small-orifice leakage theory with detailed thermo-fluid-structural simulations. The proposed framework contributes to a more accurate failure analysis through three main components: (1) coupled modeling that tracks transient heat flow and stress development as fire conditions evolve; (2)… More >

Abstract Background: Therapeutic responses of breast cancer vary among patients and lead to drug resistance and recurrence due to the heterogeneity. Current preclinical models, however, are inadequate for predicting individual patient responses towards different drugs. This study aimed to investigate the patient-derived breast cancer culture models for drug sensitivity evaluations. Methods: Tumor and adjacent tissues from female breast cancer patients were collected during surgery. Patient-derived breast cancer cells were cultured using the conditional reprogramming technique to establish 2D models. The obtained patient-derived conditional reprogramming breast cancer (CRBC) cells were subsequently embedded in alginate-gelatin methacryloyl hydrogel microspheres… More >

Abstract Background: Glioblastoma (GBM) prognosis has seen little improvement over the past two decades. While immunotherapy has revolutionized cancer treatment, its impact on GBM remains limited. To characterize the evolving research landscape and identify future directions in GBM immunotherapy, we conducted a comprehensive bibliometric review. Methods: All literature related to immunotherapy in GBM from 1999 to 2024 was collected from the Web of Science Core Collection. CtieSpace and VOSviewer were used to conduct bibliometric analysis and visualize the data. Results: Bibliometric analysis identified 5038 publications authored by 23,335 researchers from 4699 institutions across 96 countries/regions, published in… More >

Abstract In the development of coalbed methane (CBM) reservoirs using multistage fractured horizontal wells, there often exist areas that are either repeatedly stimulated or completely unstimulated between fracturing stages, leading to suboptimal reservoir performance. Currently, there is no well-established method for accurately evaluating the effectiveness of such stimulation. This study introduces, for the first time, the concept of the Fracture Network Bridging Coefficient (FNBC) as a novel metric to assess stimulation performance. By quantitatively coupling the proportions of unstimulated and overstimulated volumes, the FNBC effectively characterizes the connectivity and efficiency of the fracture network. A background… More >

Abstract The integration of wind power and natural gas for hydrogen production forms a Green and Blue Hydrogen Integrated Energy System (GBH-IES), which is a promising cogeneration approach characterized by multi-energy complementarity, flexible dispatch, and efficient utilization. This system can meet the demands for electricity, heat, and hydrogen while demonstrating significant performance in energy supply, energy conversion, economy, and environment (4E). To evaluate the GBH-IES system effectively, a comprehensive performance evaluation index system was constructed from the 4E dimensions. The fuzzy DEMATEL method was used to quantify the causal relationships between indicators, establishing a scientific input-output… More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract With the rapid advancement of electromagnetic launch technology, enhancing the structural stability and thermal resistance of armatures has become essential for improving the overall efficiency and reliability of railgun systems. Traditional aluminum alloy armatures often suffer from severe ablation, deformation, and uneven current distribution under high pulsed currents, which limit their performance and service life. To address these challenges, this study employs the Johnson–Cook constitutive model and the finite element method to develop armature models of aluminum matrix composites with varying heterogeneous graphene volume fractions. The temperature, stress, and strain of the armatures during operation… More >
