ReaxFF molecular dynamics investigation of co-combustion between Zhundong coal and lignin
Published on 2026-02-25 by @OXFORD
Abstract: AbstractCo-combustion of coal and biomass offers a promising solution to reduce fossil fuel dependency. This study employs reactive force-field molecular dynamics (ReaxFF MD) to investigate the microscopic effects of temperature and mixing ratio on Zhundong coal–lignin co-combustion. Elevated temperatures significantly enhance the conversion from large molecules to smaller gaseous products (CO2, H2O), suppressing tar formation. Higher coal ratios (3:1, 2:1) favor reduced tar yield and increase[...]
Our summary: This study uses ReaxFF molecular dynamics to analyze the co-combustion of Zhundong coal and lignin. Elevated temperatures and higher coal ratios improve gaseous product yields while reducing tar formation. Reaction pathways indicate distinct contributions from coal oxidation, lignin pyrolysis, and the behavior of nitrogen and sulfur during combustion.

A Comparative Study of CNN, BiLSTM, and GRU Architectures
Published on 2026-02-03 by Elias Tabane, Ernest Mnkandla, Zenghui Wang @MDPI
Abstract: DNA sequence classification is a fundamental problem in bioinformatics, playing an indispensable role in gene annotation and disease prediction. Whereas most deep learning models, such as CNNs, BiLSTM networks, and GRUs, have been found individually optimal, each of these methods excels in modeling a specific aspect of sequence data: local motifs, long-range dependencies, and efficient temporal modeling of the sequences. Here, we present and evaluate an ensemble model that integrates CNN, BiLSTM[...]
Our summary: This study evaluates CNN, BiLSTM, and GRU architectures for DNA sequence classification. An ensemble model combining these methods achieved a classification accuracy of 90.6%, outperforming individual models.
