Public acceptance of residential photovoltaic installation: A case study in China.

Residential photovoltaics (PV) presents an effective means of achieving low-carbon development, owing to its installation flexibility and resource-saving properties. To explore the residents' behavioral intentions to purchase and install residential PV systems, this study collected 1424 samples and analyze the impact of different policies on residents' adoption of residential PV using the theory of TPB and the Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Model (PLS-SEM). The main conclusions are summarized as follows: (1) Bungalow residents exhibit a stronger inclination to install residential PV than building residents.

Kinetic and thermodynamic analysis on preparation of belite-calcium sulphoaluminate cement using electrolytic manganese residue and barium slag by TGA.

Electrolytic manganese residue (EMR) is a solid filter residue obtained from manganese carbonate ore during the production of metal manganese. A potential avenue towards large-scale utilisation of EMR is its use in cement preparation. However, the preparation of cement materials using EMR requires high-temperature calcination.

Phytochemicals for the treatment of metabolic diseases: Evidence from clinical studies.

With the continuous improvement of people's living standard, the incidence of metabolic diseases is gradually increasing in recent years. There is growing interest in finding drugs to treat metabolic diseases from natural compounds due to their good efficacy and limited side effects. Over the past few decades, many phytochemicals derived from natural plants, such as berberine, curcumin, quercetin, resveratrol, rutin, and hesperidin, have been shown to have good pharmacological activity against metabolic diseases in preclinical studies.

Does the Pro-Environmental Behavior of Household PV Installation Contribute to the Shaping of Users' Green Purchasing Behavior?-Evidence from China.

In order to achieve the "dual carbon goal", the Chinese government is actively encouraging the adoption of household photovoltaic (PV) systems. While there has been considerable research on residents' inclination to install PV, limited attention has been given to understanding how the installation and utilization of PV systems influence pro-environmental behaviors. Therefore, this paper aims to investigate the potential impact of pro-environmental behavior resulting from household PV installation on users' green purchasing behavior.

Magnetic properties of two coordination isomeric cobalt(II) single-ion magnets.

Two isomeric Co(II) complexes with the same general molecular formula of [Co(napy)(NO)] (napy = 1,8-naphthyridine) have been synthesized.

Effect of Psychological Counseling Based on Problem Management Plus on Social Anxiety in Parents of Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder.

Background: Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a widespread mental growth disorder. Children with ASD are unlikely to restore the ability of living independent, which definitely brings their parents greater psychological pressure and psychological problems such as social anxiety. Therefore, it is pressing to conduct intervention research on social anxiety and other problems in parents of children with ASD.

Object Detection for UAV Aerial Scenarios Based on Vectorized IOU.

Object detection in unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) images is an extremely challenging task and involves problems such as multi-scale objects, a high proportion of small objects, and high overlap between objects. To address these issues, first, we design a Vectorized Intersection Over Union (VIOU) loss based on YOLOv5s. This loss uses the width and height of the bounding box as a vector to construct a cosine function that corresponds to the size of the box and the aspect ratio and directly compares the center point value of the box to improve the accuracy of the bounding box regression.

Study on the Differences between Various Gas Injection Sources in the Process of Coal Seam Methane Replacement by Gas Injection.

To study the differences between various gas injection sources in the process of coal seam methane replacement, experimental research was conducted to study the influences of different gas injection sources and gas injection ratios on coal seam methane replacement by considering the strong adsorption gas CO and the weak adsorption gas N. The experimental results show that the temperature rise effect of the CO injection gas is greater and lasts longer than that of the N injection gas in the process of coal seam methane replacement by gas injection, and the temperature rise can promote the desorption of adsorbed methane well. However, due to the different effects of gas compressibility, the increase in gas pressure caused by injecting N under the same conditions is higher than that of CO; due to the strong adsorption of CO, the gas pressure after injecting CO continues to decrease slowly.

Study on the Response Characteristics of the Pressure and Temperature Fields of Source Gas Injection under Loading Conditions.

To study the safety of the source gas in coal seams after gas injection displacement, choosing N as an example, the pressure and temperature field variation characteristics of the source gas in coal were studied via experimental research, numerical simulation, and theoretical analysis methods, starting from the variation characteristics of the gas pressure and temperature fields in the coal. In this work, 2-9 MPa stress was applied to the top of the coal samples. The experimental results indicated that during the coal loading process, the gas pressure and temperature in the coal generally exhibited a decreasing trend and that the pressure and temperature could increase in some areas due to pore closure and frictional heat generation, but the increase range was not significant.
