Incomplete LU Preconditioner Based on Max-Plus Approximation of LU Factorization
We present a new method for the a priori approximation of the orders of magnitude of the entries in the LU factors of a complex or real matrix A. This approximation is used to determine the positions of the largest entries in...

A Pilot Project Using a Community Approach to Support Child Protection Services in China
Jie Lei, T. Cai, Sarah Brown, Lu Wei
Sep 01, 2019
This article documents how a community approach was used as part of developing a child protection service in China. In order to demonstrate the potential of the community approach, it is first argued that the fragmented...
An Unusual Phase Transition Driven by Vibrational Entropy Changes in a Hybrid Organic–Inorganic Perovskite
The driving forces for the phase transitions of ABX3 hybrid organic–inorganic perovskites have been limited to the octahedral tilting, order–disorder, and displacement. Now, a complex structural phase transition has been...
Mild Hydrothermal Crystallization of Heavy Rare-Earth Chromite RECrO3 (RE = Er, Tm, Yb, Lu) Perovskites and Magnetic Properties.
Crystallization of perovskite structure chromites (ACrO3) in aqueous conditions is difficult owing to the amphoteric nature of the Cr3+ in the alkaline-mediated reaction conditions. This is especially true for the small metal...

Catalytic trajectory of a dimeric nonribosomal peptide synthetase subunit with an inserted epimerase domain.
Nonribosomal peptide synthetases (NRPSs) are modular assembly-line megaenzymes that synthesize diverse metabolites with wide-ranging biological activities. The structural dynamics of synthetic elongation has remained unclear....
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...
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...
