Abstract Over the past few years, video live streaming has gained immense popularity as a leading internet application. In current solutions offered by cloud service providers, the Group of Pictures (GOP) length of the video source often significantly impacts end-to-end (E2E) latency. However, designing an optimized GOP structure to reduce this effect remains a significant challenge. This paper presents two key contributions. First, it explores how the GOP length at the video source influences E2E latency in mainstream cloud streaming services. Experimental results reveal that the mean E2E latency increases linearly with longer GOP lengths. Second, More >

Abstract Wheat grain morphology, particularly grain length (GL) and width (GW), is a key determinant of yield. To improve the suboptimal grain dimensions of the local anthocyanin-rich variety Guizi 1 (GZ1), we crossed it with Zhongyan 96-3 (ZY96-3), an elite germplasm known for faster grain filling and superior grain size. A genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS) approach was applied to an F₂ population of 110 individuals derived from GZ1 × ZY96-3, resulting in the identification of 23,134 high-quality SNPs. Most of the SNPs associated with GL and GW were clustered on chromosomes 2B, 3A, and 3B. QTL mapping for GL… More >

Abstract This study presents an innovative development of the exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA) control chart, explicitly adapted for the examination of time series data distinguished by seasonal autoregressive moving average behavior—SARMA(1,1)_L under exponential white noise. Unlike previous works that rely on simplified models such as AR(1) or assume independence, this research derives for the first time an exact two-sided Average Run Length (ARL) formula for the Modified EWMA chart under SARMA(1,1)_L conditions, using a mathematically rigorous Fredholm integral approach. The derived formulas are validated against numerical integral equation (NIE) solutions, showing strong agreement and significantly reduced More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract Hancornia speciosa ‘Gomes’, commonly known as mangabeira, is a fruit-bearing tree native to Brazil that plays a crucial role in sustaining its native biome, restoring degraded areas, and improving the socio-environmental conditions of these regions. The use of colored materials and bioinputs can help improve the quality of seedling production of Hancornia speciosa. This study aimed to evaluate the use of colored seedling tubes and a Chlorella vulgaris-based bioinput in developing Hancornia speciosa seedlings. The experiment was conducted at the Mato Grosso do Sul State University (UEMS), in Cassilândia, MS, using a completely randomized design in a 5 ×… More >

Abstract The crystallization behavior of polymers is significantly influenced by molecular chain length and the dispersion of varying chain lengths. The complexity of studying crystallization arises from the dispersity of polymer materials and the typically slow cooling rates. Recent advancements in fast cooling techniques have rendered the investigation of polymer crystallization at varying cooling rates an attractive area of research; however, a systematic quantitative framework for this process is still lacking. We employ a coarse-grained model for polyvinyl alcohol (CG-PVA) in molecular dynamics simulations to study the crystallization of linear polymers with varying chain lengths under… More >

Abstract High-speed maglev trains represent a key direction for the future development of rail transportation. As operating speeds increase, they face increasingly severe aerodynamic challenges. The streamlined aerodynamic shape of a maglev train is a critical factor influencing its aerodynamic performance, and optimizing its length plays a significant role in improving the overall aerodynamic characteristics of the train. In this study, a numerical simulation model of a high-speed maglev train was established based on computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to investigate the effects of streamline length on the aerodynamic performance of the train operating on an open… More >

Abstract Accurate measurement of anchor rod length is crucial for ensuring structural safety in tunnel engineering, yet conventional destructive techniques face limitations in efficiency and adaptability to complex underground environments. This study presents a novel wireless instrument based on the standing wave principle to enable remote, non-destructive length assessment. The system employs a master-slave architecture, where a handheld transmitter unit initiates measurements through robust 433 MHz wireless communication, optimized for signal penetration in obstructed spaces. The embedded measurement unit, integrated with anchor rods during installation, utilizes frequency-scanning technology to excite structural resonances. By analyzing standing wave… More >

Abstract This study investigated the micro-sliding frictional behavior of shale in fracturing fluids under varying operational conditions using Chang 7 shale oil reservoir core samples. Through systematic micro-sliding friction experiments, the characteristics and governing mechanisms of shale friction were elucidated. Complementary analyses were conducted to characterize the mineral composition, petrophysical properties, and micromorphology of the shale samples, providing insights into the relationship between microscopic structure and frictional response. In this paper, the characteristics and variation law of shale micro-sliding friction under different types of graphite materials as additives in LGF-80 (Low-damage Guar Fluid) oil flooding recoverable… More >
