    Abstract Digital technology can be used to enable the living preservation and heritage innovation of the intangible cultural heritage of Chinese traditional textile skills for sustainable development. Taking the “Wu Leno” weaving technique in Suzhou as the research object, we first elaborated on the origin, development, and evolution of “Wu Leno” through documentary research and case study methods. Second, considering the inheritance of the Leno weaving technique, we used digital technology to establish the pattern. The study showed that a digital database and virtual reality technology can be used to build a loom model and create a simulation library to realize innovative applications and interactive experiences in apparel design. The study also showed that the digital database and the interactive technology of virtual reality can provide practical pathways and explore experiences for the preservation, inheritance, cross-border communication, and sustainable innovation development of Suzhou “Wu Leno” weaving techniques in modern times.

    Abstract Mikania micrantha is an exotic and aggressive species that can reproduce asexually and sexually through its germinative stem and its featherlike seeds. Present weeding methods cannot effectively or economically control the spread of Mikania micrantha. In this article, we propose a method to suppress the growth and spread of Mikania micrantha by applying a high-energy laser beam to penetrate its stem. The threshold penetrating optical intensity is 3.1 W/mm

    Abstract An updated and annotated synopsis of the family Bostrichidae of mainland China is presented, including sixty-eight species belonged to seven subfamilies (including eight tribes), and twenty-nine genera. Thirteen species are new records for mainland China, and numerous new provincial records are given. Four species, Dolichobostrychus yunnanus Lesne, 1913, Heterobostrychus ambigenus Lesne, 1920, Sinoxylon eucerum Lesne, 1932 and S. rejectum (Hope, 1845) are endemic to mainland China. The faunal elements present and their composition are discussed, and the zoogeographical distribution of species within mainland China.

    Abstract This paper reviews the genera Xylothrips Lesne, 1901 and Calophagus Lesne, 1902, and their species, and proposes that Calophagus should be reinstated as a full genus from a subgenus of Xylothrips (contra Borowski & Węgrzynowicz 2019). The genera and their included species are diagnosed and redescribed, and a summary of information on the distribution and biology of all species is provided. The importance of characters of the antennal club and pronotum in separating the two genera is stressed. A key to the two genera and the two species of Xylothrips is provided.

    Abstract Confirming positive effects and offering optimal ranges of tea saponins on improving the efficiency of phytoremediation on cadmium is a prerequisite for applying tea saponins in field remediation. Existing studies qualitatively tested the feasibility of tea saponins on promoting the absorption of cadmium by hyperaccumulators in pots experiments, while this study investigated the effects of tea saponins on increasing the proportion of cadmium available fraction in contaminated soil quantitatively and confirmed tea saponins promoted the absorption by Portulaca oleracea in cadmium-contaminated water by independent soil experiments and hydroponic experiments. The results showed that for acquiring a higher proportion of cadmium available fraction, the concentration of tea saponins was negatively correlated with the concentration of cadmium contained in the soil, and the optimal treatment time of tea saponins was between 3–9 days depending on the cadmium concentration in contaminated soil. Using tea saponins could enhance the absorption of cadmium by Portulaca oleracea in a relatively short time to decrease the concentration of cadmium left in the contaminated water. The above findings help to deepen the understanding of tea saponins’ effects and use ranges on phytoremediation of cadmium both in soil and water and conduce studies on phytoremediation of other heavy-metal-contaminated soil and water with the help of tea saponins.

    Abstract Liquid column resonance (LCR) transducers have been widely used in deep-sea acoustic applications because of their fluid-filled structures. Until now, studies of pipe resonance have generally been based on the plane acoustic wave equation, but for a vibrating object, the velocity is the primary focus instead of the pressure. Thus, the motion equation of a pipe resonance mode can be deduced based on the Navier-Stokes (N-S) equations. In this work, the velocity of an LCR transducer is obtained using the finite element model, and the velocity distribution inside the liquid column is examined. In addition, the radiating surface of the LCR transducer is identified and a simplified model of the radiation that consists of concave pistons and ring sources is proposed and verified. The theory behind the high mechanical quality (Q) value of the LCR transducer is explained through the radiation of the LCR transducer and the low viscosity of the water. This is also verified through a finite element model and measurements. Due to the high mechanical Q value and the low frequency of the LCR transducer, such measurements should be carried out in open-field water and the pulse should be long enough to achieve a steady state.

    Abstract Streptococcus suis is one of the most common zoonotic pathogens, in humans and can cause meningitis, endocarditis, arthritis and sepsis. Human cases of Streptococcus suis infection have been reported worldwide, and most of those cases occurred in Asia. Hearing loss is the most common sequela of Streptococcus suis meningitis. Streptococcus suis infection complicated with acute cerebral infarction has rarely been reported. Therefore, to provide a reference for this disease, we reported a case of acute multiple brain infarctions associated with Streptococcus suis infection. In our report, a 69yearold male patient had Streptococcus suis meningitis and sepsis, which were associated with multiple acute cerebral infarctions in the pons and bilateral frontotemporal parietal occipital lobes. After treatment, the patient exhibited cognitive impairment, dyspraxia and irritability. There are limited case reports of cerebral infarction associated with Streptococcus suis infection, and further research is needed to determine the best treatment method.
