This book provides a scientific basis for development of targeted inhibitors and directional inhibitors of preventing spontaneous combustion of coal. This book applied solvent extraction assisted by ultrasonic into the study of coal spontaneous combustion and hence broken through the technical bottlenecks of existing studies for mechanisms of coal spontaneous combustion. Further, the theories of particles physics were firstly combined with theories of coal chemistry and finally explained s...

We have entered into the era of artificial intelligence, neural machine translation, and especially large language models which have dramatically changed the landscape of human translation practices. On the one hand, translation technology has remarkably improved translation efficiency and reduced the cost of translation; on the other, it has brought about some issues related to translation quality, translator competence, translation ethics, and so on. This offers fertile ground for resear...
