TMU-Net: A Transformer-Based Multimodal Framework with Uncertainty Quantification for Driver Fatigue Detection
2025
Driving fatigued is a prevalent issue frequently contributing to traffic accidents, prompting the development of automated fatigue detection methods based on various data sources, particularly reliable physiological signals. However, challenges in accuracy, robustness, and practicality persist, especially for cross-subject detection. Multimodal data fusion can enhance the effective estimation of driver fatigue. In this work, we leverage the advantages of multimodal signals to propose a novel Multimodal Attention Network (TMU-Net) for driver fatigue detection, achieving precise fatigue assessment by integrating electroencephalogram (EEG) and electrooculogram (EOG) signals. The core innovation of TMU-Net lies in its unimodal feature extraction module, which combines causal convolution, ConvSparseAttention, and Transformer encoders to effectively capture spatiotemporal features, and a multimodal fusion module that employs cross-modal attention and uncertainty-weighted gating to dynamically integrate complementary information. By incorporating uncertainty quantification, TMU-Net significantly enhances robustness to noise and individual variability. Experimental validation on the SEED-VIG dataset demonstrates TMU-Net’s superior performance stability across 23 subjects in cross-subject testing, effectively leveraging the complementary strengths of EEG (2 Hz full-band and five-band features) and EOG signals for high-precision fatigue detection. Furthermore, attention heatmap visualization reveals the dynamic interaction mechanisms between EEG and EOG signals, confirming the physiological rationality of TMU-Net’s feature fusion strategy. Practical challenges and future research directions for fatigue detection methods are also discussed.

Evolution law of pulsating seepage and thermal deformation by injecting high‐temperature steam into coal for thermal coalbed methane recovery
2025
Chinese coal reservoirs are characterized by low pressure and low permeability, which need to be enhanced so as to increase production. However, conventional methods for permeability enhancement can only increase the permeability in fractures, but not the ultra‐low permeability in coal matrices. Attempts to enhance such impermeable structures lead to rapid attenuation of gas production, especially in the late stage of gas extraction. Thermal stimulation by injecting high‐temperature steam is a promising method to increase gas production. The critical scientific challenges that still hinder its widespread application are related to the evolution law of permeability of high‐temperature steam in coal and the thermal deformation of coal. In this study, an experimental approach is developed to explore the high‐temperature steam seepage coupled with the thermal deformation in coal under triaxial stress. The tests were conducted using cylindrical coal specimens of ϕ50 mm × 100 mm. The permeability and thermal strain in coal were investigated when high‐temperature steam was injected at 151.11, 183.20, 213.65, and 239.76°C. The experimental results reveal for the first time that as the amount of injected fluid increases, the steam permeability shows periodic pulsation changes. This paper introduces and explains the main traits of this discovery that may shed more light on the seepage phenomenon. When the injected steam temperature increases, the amplitude of pulsating permeability decreases, whereas the frequency increases; meanwhile, the period becomes shorter, the pulsation peak appears earlier, and the stabilization time becomes longer. The average peak permeability shows a “U‐shaped” trend, decreasing first and then increasing as the steam temperature increases. Meanwhile, with the extension of steam injection time, the axial, radial, and volumetric strains of coal show a stage‐wise expansion characteristic at different temperatures of steam injection, except for the radial strains at 151.11°C. A two‐phase flow theory of gas–liquid is adopted to elucidate the mechanism of pulsating seepage of steam. Moreover, the influencing mechanism of inward and outward thermal expansion on the permeability of coal is interpreted. The results presented in this paper provide new insight into the feasibility of thermal gas recovery by steam injection. A new phenomenon of pulsation of steam permeability is discovered. The permeability of high‐temperature steam in coal shows a periodic pulsation pattern with an increase in the injection time. A two‐phase flow theory of gas–liquid is adopted to elucidate the mechanism of pulsating seepage of steam. The effect of steam temperature on permeability presents two forms of expansion mechanisms. Highlights A novel phenomenon of pulsation of steam permeability in coal is discovered for the first time. The mechanism of pulsating seepage of steam is interpreted using the theory of gas–liquid two‐phase flow. The effects of steam temperature on permeability present two expansion mechanisms for inward and outward expansions.

The Radiation Temperature Characteristics of Sapphire under Shock Loading
2022
A light gas gun was used to study the radiation temperature from the window material of sapphire. The luminescence characteristics were determined using a multi-wavelength pyrometer in the pressure range of 36–50 GPa. By improving the processing technology for the metal sample and assembly technology for the target, the eight-wavelength light radiation was measured from sapphire under shock pressure without phase transition. The experimental results showed that sapphire has luminous phenomenon from 36.5 GPa. The luminous intensity changes in a linear fashion, revealing the thickness of the radiating layer of shock-compressed sapphire with a constant absorption coefficient. The results indicated that the spectral distribution is a typical thermal radiation, which fits well with the grey-body spectrum. The radiation of sapphire under shock mostly came from the adiabatic shear banding, as determined by comparing the melting line of sapphire using a static high-pressure experiment and theoretical calculations with the radiation temperature. The study is an effective means to obtain the transparent material shock radiation temperature. Moreover, an effective approach is proposed to research the radiation mechanism of transparent material and the high pressure melting line.

The measurement of emissions from the window material of sapphire was performed through multi-wavelength pyrometer and spontaneous spectroscopic techniques in the pressure range of 40–120 GPa. The results showed that the spectral distribution with wavelength clearly fit well with the grey-body spectrum. We have analyzed the emissions and discovered they mostly came from the shear banding, which is a typical thermal radiation. The radiance intensity changing linearly with time revealed it was a volume effect. All of the data from pyrometer can be explained by the model of Boslough’s study, especially for pressures over megabar. The color temperature of shocked sapphire changing with increased stress disagrees with the computed melt curve which is likely explained by the different phase structures of sapphire.

S-SP Inductive Power Transfer System with High Misalignment Tolerance Based on a Switch-Controlled Capacitor
2025
In order to reduce the sensitivity of an inductive power transfer (IPT) system to the misalignment coupling coil, an S-SP-compensated IPT system with high misalignment tolerance based on a switch-controlled capacitor (SCC) is proposed. Firstly, the mathematical model of the S-SP compensation topology is established, the output characteristics and impedance characteristics of the system are analyzed, and a sensitivity analysis of the compensation element parameters is carried out using the compensation topology. An improved switching capacitor structure is proposed to dynamically compensate the S-SP IPT system. Finally, an experimental prototype was set up to validate the correctness of the theoretical analysis. The experimental results show that the proposed method can ensure that the system can operate in the resonant state with high efficiency when the coupling pad’s horizontal misalignment is within 30% (with the coupling coefficient varying from 0.22 to 0.14).

MBNL2 Regulates DNA Damage Response via Stabilizing p21
2021
RNA-binding proteins are frequently dysregulated in human cancer and able to modulate tumor cell proliferation as well as tumor metastasis through post-transcriptional regulation on target genes. Abnormal DNA damage response and repair mechanism are closely related to genome instability and cell transformation. Here, we explore the function of the RNA-binding protein muscleblind-like splicing regulator 2 (MBNL2) on tumor cell proliferation and DNA damage response. Transcriptome and gene expression analysis show that the PI3K/AKT pathway is enriched in MBNL2-depleted cells, and the expression of cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 1A (p21CDKN1A) is significantly affected after MBNL2 depletion. MBNL2 modulates the mRNA and protein levels of p21, which is independent of its canonical transcription factor p53. Moreover, depletion of MBNL2 increases the phosphorylation levels of checkpoint kinase 1 (Chk1) serine 345 (S345) and DNA damage response, and the effect of MBNL2 on DNA damage response is p21-dependent. MBNL2 would further alter tumor cell fate after DNA damage, MBNL2 knockdown inhibiting DNA damage repair and DNA damage-induced senescence, but promoting DNA damage-induced apoptosis.
