Cracking the enigma of mitochondrial-DNA variants and cancer.
Wei Wei, Patrick F Chinnery
Feb 12, 2020
A recent study by Yuan et al., [Ref. 11] published in Nature Genetics, demonstrated multidimensional molecular alterations of mitochondrial DNA in human cancers and provide an on-line catalogue of mitochondrial genomes in many...
Optimization Method for Sustainable Development of Smart City Public Management Based on Big Data Analysis
Wei Wang, Lin Li
Apr 01, 2023
With the acceleration of the urbanization process, the traditional urban management has become increasingly unable to meet the needs of urban management and development. At the same time, with the rapid development of artificial...
Pro-Environmental Behaviors and Environmental Improvement
Boqiang Lin, Kai Wei
Jan 01, 2023
Fostering pro-environmental behaviors (PEBs) among the young generation is imperative. Based on a micro-survey of Chinese college students, the authors used Logit and ordered Logit model to obtain empirical information on...
Optimisation for interconnected energy hub system with combined ground source heat pump and borehole thermal storage
Da Huo, Wei Wei, Simon Le Blond
Dec 01, 2018
Ground source heat pumps (GSHP) give zero-carbon emission heating at a residential level. However, as the heat is discharged, the temperature of the ground drops, leading to a poorer efficiency. Borehole inter-seasonal thermal...
Cell reprogramming shapes the mitochondrial DNA landscape.
Individual induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) show considerable phenotypic heterogeneity, but the reasons for this are not fully understood. Comprehensively analysing the mitochondrial genome (mtDNA) in 146 iPSC and...

Biparental inheritance of mitochondrial DNA revisited.
Evidence for a biparental mode of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) inheritance has been sparse and remains controversial. Recent studies using a range of complementary techniques do not support paternal transmission of mtDNA, and...
Water Resources Assessment and Management for Nuclear Power Plants in China
To deal with global warming and energy shortage, nuclear power plants are constructed or planning to be constructed in China presently. The operation of a nuclear power plant consumes a great amount of water and discharges a lot...
Fast decoupled state estimation for distribution networks considering branch ampere measurements
Fast decoupled state estimation (FDSE) is proposed for distribution networks, with fast convergence and high efficiency. Conventionally, branch current magnitude measurements cannot be incorporated into FDSE models; however, in...

Optimal Borehole Energy Storage Charging Strategy in a Low Carbon Space Heat System

Domestic heating is the major demand of energy systems, which can bring significant uncertainties to system operation and shrink the security margin. From this aspect, the borehole system, as an interseasonal heating storage...

Energy Harvesting from Ultra-low-Frequency Vibrations Through a Quasi-zero Stiffness Electromagnetic Energy Harvester

Purpose: To scavenge vibrational energy from ultra-low frequency vibrations with low excitation levels, this paper presents a novel quasi-zero stiffness electromagnetic energy harvester (QZS-EMEH) by exploiting a rolling...

Demonstration of broad photonic crystal stop band in a freely-suspended microfiber perforated by an array of rectangular holes
It is shown that photonic crystal (PhC) optical reflectors with reflectance in excess of 60% and fractional bandwidths greater than 10% can be fabricated by ion beam milling of fewer than ten periods of rectangular cross section...
Background sequence characteristics influence the occurrence and severity of disease-causing mtDNA mutations.
Inherited mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutations have emerged as a common cause of human disease, with mutations occurring multiple times in the world population. The clinical presentation of three pathogenic mtDNA mutations is...
Chance-Constrained Optimization for MultiEnergy Hub Systems in a Smart City

The energy hub is a powerful conceptualization of how to acquire, convert, and distribute energy resources in the smart city. However, uncertainties such as intermittent renewable energy injection present challenges to energy...
