The suction installation process for bucket foundations for offshore wind turbines (OWTs) can cause the formation of soil plug within the bucket, which can affect the seismic performance of the OWT. Therefore, it is important to evaluate the influence of soil plug on the seismic performance of OWT on bucket foundations. In this study, a comprehensive set of high-fidelity solid–fluid coupled dynamic numerical simulations are co...

The basic research indicated that microglial P2Y12 receptors ( P2Y12Rs ) are involved in the pathophysiology of epilepsy through regulated microglial-neuronal interactions, aberrant neurogenesis, or immature neuronal projections. However, whether the clinic case of epilepsy would be associated with P2Y12 receptor gene polymorphisms is presented with few data. In our study, a total of 176 patients with epilepsy and 50 healthy c...

Deep ocean blue holes possess steep physicochemical gradients, especially low dissolved oxygen concentration, which shape the extraordinary microbial communities. However, the environmental responses of microorganisms with different lifestyles and knowledge of culturable microorganisms in the blue holes are still unknown. Here, we investigated the bacterial community structure with different lifestyles of the world’s deepest b...
