Skeletal muscle contracts either by shortening or lengthening (concentrically or eccentrically, respectively); however, the two contractions substantially differ from one another in terms of mechanisms of force generation, maximum force production and energy cost.It is generally known that eccentric actions generate greater force than isometric and
The Rolling Trays propagation of interplanetary shocks, particularly those driven by coronal mass ejections (CMEs), is still an outstanding question in heliophysics and space weather forecasting.Here, we address the effects of the ambient solar wind on the propagation of two similar CME-driven shocks from the Sun to Earth.The two shock events (CME0

Organic-inorganic hybrid halide perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have been a trending topic in recent years.Significant progress has been made to increase their power conversion efficiency (PCE) to more than 20%.However, the poor stability of PSCs in both working and non-working conditions results in rapid degradation through multiple environmental er
Foreign direct investment (FDI) has not only been considered to be an important economic engine to promote economic growth in China, but also has played a pivotal role in the ecological environment.Empirically, it may exhibit two conflicting effects, namely, pollution haven effect and pollution halo effect.Hence, it is of great significance of re-e
