Abstract To address the operational challenges of power systems with high renewable penetration, this research targets the non-stationarity and stochasticity of wind power. A novel hybrid framework for probabilistic forecasting and risk assessment is proposed. Initially, Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD) adaptively decomposes the raw power signal into multi-scale Intrinsic Mode Functions (IMFs) and a residual trend, effectively segregating temporal features and reducing complexity. These components are then fused with historical data to form a comprehensive input. The core predictor is a Bidirectional Gated Recurrent Unit (BiGRU) network enhanced with a Temporal Attention (TA) mechanism. The BiGRU… More >

Abstract Stream ciphers are simple to implement and fast at encrypting and decrypting data, making them very important in information security. Boolean functions are a core part of stream ciphers. However, their mainstream hardware implementations face two main problems, including wasted area resources and excessive critical path delay. These issues limit the energy efficiency and integration level of stream cipher chips. To address these problems, this paper proposes an energy-efficient design method for a 64-bit Boolean function reconfigurable operation unit (BFROU), aiming to improve the computational efficiency of Boolean functions in stream ciphers. To optimize the… More >

Abstract This study addresses the challenge of balancing “high deposition efficiency with large layer thickness” and “component mechanical integrity” in Laser Powder Bed Fusion (LPBF) additive manufacturing. Using 304L stainless steel as an example, a hybrid modeling strategy combining physical mechanism models and residual machine learning was proposed, achieving accurate prediction of densification at H = 60, 90, and 120 μm (test set R² = 0.833, MAE = 0.104). Within the Doehlert matrix experimental design framework, the coupled effects of laser power, scanning speed, and scanning spacing on densification behavior, microstructure evolution, and mechanical response at different… More >

Abstract Background: Although transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) drives hepatic stellate cell activation and fibrogenesis, the mechanisms by which 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) modulates these processes in TGF-β1-activated hepatic stellate cells remain to be determined. Therefore, we investigated whether TPA alleviates fibrosis in TGF-β1-treated hepatic stellate cells and regulates both canonical and non-canonical pathways. Further, we assessed whether inhibitors of these pathways similarly affect proliferation and fibrosis in LX-2 cells. Methods: LX-2 hepatic stellate cells were used as the experimental model. Cells were treated with TPA, TGF-β, or TGF-β plus TPA, and Yes-associated protein (YAP) and protein kinase B (PKB;… More >

Abstract Backgrounds: Children’s mental ill health has risen worldwide in recent years, placing increasing emotional demands not only on autistic children but also on their families. A holistic perspective on supportive therapies besides medical treatment is essential. There is a growing need for research and practice that explore equine-assisted therapy through innovative relational frameworks. This qualitative study had two main aims: first, to understand how parents perceived the social and emotional benefits of their autistic child’s involvement in equine-assisted therapy; and second, to explore how parents experienced positive resonance with their child during simultaneous parent–child involvement in… More >

Abstract Growth regulatory factor (GRF) genes play a crucial role in plant growth and development, reproduction, metabolism, and stress resistance. In this study, we conducted a genome-wide integrated analysis of transcriptome and miRNA expression profiles in Paulownia fortunei challenged by phytoplasma infection, with a specific focus on elucidating the functional landscape of the PfGRF transcription factor (TF) family. A comprehensive investigation was conducted on the PfGRF TF family. A total of 16 PfGRF genes were identified in this study, among which 13 were located on the chromosomes of P. fortunei. They were divided into six groups based on amino acid… More >

Abstract Agricultural systems increasingly face interacting abiotic and biotic stresses driven by climate change and soil degradation. Plant performance under such conditions is determined by coordinated networks of functional traits governing resource acquisition, allocation, and defense. These traits also structure plant-associated microbiomes, whose activities influence nutrient cycling, stress buffering, and disease suppression. This review synthesizes current evidence that agricultural nanomaterials enhance crop stress resilience primarily by reprogramming plant functional trait networks and, through them, modulating microbiome dynamics. We analyze how nanomaterial physicochemical properties including size, surface chemistry, dissolution behavior, and redox activity determine their bioavailability and… More >

Abstract This study aimed to elucidate the effects of varying seedling ages at planting on the agronomic traits and nutrient content of stem lettuce. The early-maturing variety “WS120” and the late-maturing variety “WS1” were employed as experimental materials. Four seedling age treatments were established at 20, 25, 30, and 35 d. By measuring the agronomic traits and nutrient content of the stem lettuce, we employed correlation analysis, principal component analysis, cluster analysis, and the membership function method for a comprehensive evaluation. This study aims to elucidate the optimal planting age for stem lettuce in plateau regions.… More >
