The ultimate recovery of shale oil is mostly dependent upon the occurrence and content of free oil within the nano-scaled pore network of shale reservoirs.Due to the nanoporous nature of shale, quantitatively characterizing the occurrence and content of free oil in shale is a formidable undertaking.To tackle this challenge, 12 lacustrine shale samp

Abstract Human activities interfere with wild animals and lead to the loss of many animal populations.Therefore, efforts have been made to understand how wildlife can rebound from anthropogenic disturbances.An essential mechanism to adapt to environmental and social changes is the fluctuations in the host gut microbiome.Here we give a comprehensive

The control and prevention of rock burst in a steeply inclined coal seam are essential.In order to figure out the effects of filling and mining sequence on rock burst in the steeply inclined coal seam, B3+6 and B1+2 coal seams in Wudong coal mine are chosen as the research objects, and an in-house experiment system of similarity simulation is estab

This work presents the results of the overall design of the first Italian roundabout with jointed plain concrete pavement.The examined case study complies with current international standards and practices for geometry of roundabouts and road pavements.The construction of a concrete pavement in an urban roundabout will better manage and slow down f
