Abstract: A construction process for partially bonded prestressed uplift-resistant glass fiber anchor piles avoiding stress concentration includes the following steps: construction site management, determining anchor pile locations, drilling a borehole using a spiral drilling rig, lowering a pre-fabricated glass fiber rod cage into the borehole after inspection, performing grouting, making adjustments, and repeating the above operations. The construction process adopts a layout that avoids stress concentration, demonstrating its superiority in strata with developed horizontal bedding. Simultaneously, it uses glass fiber material with good corrosion resistance, meeting the requirements for uplift-resistant anchors under corrosive conditions. It employs a partially bonded prestressed design, changing the mechanical characteristic of traditional uplift-resistant anchors from becoming looser when pulled to a wedge-like characteristic of becoming tighter when pulled.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the technical fields of genetic engineering and bioinformatics, in particular, to a method for creating a new gene in an organism in the absence of an artificial DNA template, and a use thereof. The method comprises simultaneously generating DNA breaks at two or more different specific sites in the organism's genome, wherein the specific sites are genomic sites capable of separating different genetic elements or different protein domains, and the DNA breaks are ligated to each other through non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) or homologous repair to generate a new combination of the different gene elements or different protein domains that is different from the original genome sequence, thereby creating a new gene. The new gene of the invention can change the growth, development, resistance, yield and other traits of the organism, and has great value in application.

Abstract: A privacy-preserving and efficient low-altitude route authentication method. In the route verification information generation phase, the trusted authority center defines the legal routes of UAVs for each sentry station and generates a Bloom filter. The trusted authority center uses this filter to generate elements and send them to the sentry stations to prepare for subsequent verification. In the route verification phase, the sentry stations receive the real-time flight data of UAVs, use the Bloom filter to screen out elements of illegal routes, process them, and then send them to the trusted authority center. The trusted authority center verifies the received elements, and if the verification is successful, the corresponding routes are confirmed as legal. This method ensures that only UAVs flying on legal routes can pass the verification, protects the privacy of route information, and reduces computing and communication overheads at the same time.

Abstract: A method for the preparation of high-purity cristobalite is provided. The method involves obtaining high-purity cristobalite by drying, calcining, and dispersing amorphous silica. In comparison with existing technologies, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: 1. Amorphous silica has a large specific surface area and is rich in hydroxyl groups. Therefore, the cristobalite transformed from amorphous silica is prone to have pores. To eliminate these pores, the present invention employs a coupling agent for surface treatment followed by calcination. 2. The inventor chooses the silane coupling agent with a short chain length under the same mass, reducing the pores in cristobalite. Moreover, there is a certain reduction in calcination temperature and time. The possible reason is that the silane coupling agent decomposes at high temperatures, forming silica.
