Despite its extreme significance, dynamic linearity measurement for high-g accelerometers has not been discussed experimentally in previous research. In this study, we developed a novel method using a dual-warhead Hopkinson bar to measure the dynamic linearity of a high-g acceleration sensor with a laser interference impact experiment. First, we theoretically determined that dynamic linearity is a performance indicator that can be used to assess the quality merits of high-g accelerometers and is the basis of the frequency response. We also found that the dynamic linearity of the dual-warhead Hopkinson bar without an accelerometer is 2.5% experimentally. Further, we verify that dynamic linearity of the accelerometer is 3.88% after calibrating the Hopkinson bar with the accelerometer. The results confirm the reliability and feasibility of measuring dynamic linearity for high-g accelerometers using this method.
Nanoplastics (NPs; <1000 nm) are persistent soil contaminants that suppress extracellular enzyme activity, the biochemical engine of terrestrial nutrient cycling. Despite a rapidly expanding primary literature, no comprehensive meta-analysis has systematically integrated quantitative effect-size synthesis with interpretable machine learning (ML) approaches to identify and rank the physicochemical drivers of NP-induced soil enzymatic toxicity. Following the PRISMA 2020 statement, we systematically searched four databases (Web of Science, Scopus, PubMed, Google Scholar) from database inception through December 2024 and extracted 413 effect sizes from 113 peer-reviewed studies. Hedges’ g was estimated using three-level random-effects models with restricted maximum likelihood (REML) estimation implemented in the metafor package. Three supervised ML algorithms—random forest (RF), gradient boosting machines (GBMs), and support vector regression (SVR)—were trained using 18 study-level predictors derived from the complete meta-analytic dataset, and SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) were applied to quantify and rank the relative importance of individual predictors. The overall meta-analysis demonstrated a significant inhibitory effect of NPs on soil enzyme activity (Hedges’ g = −0.94; 95% CI: −1.14 to −0.73; k = 413; I2 = 78.4%; τ2 = 0.412). Among the evaluated enzymes, dehydrogenase activity exhibited the greatest inhibition (g = −1.12), whereas polystyrene nanoplastics produced the strongest adverse effects (g = −1.15). Particles smaller than 100 nm caused approximately 2.6-fold greater inhibition than particles larger than 500 nm, and dose–response meta-regression identified a nonlinear increase in toxicity at concentrations exceeding 200 mg kg−1. The RF model demonstrated the highest predictive performance, explaining 73% of the variance in an independent testing dataset (R2 = 0.73; test set n = 83). SHAP analysis identified particle diameter as the most influential predictor, revealing an approximate critical threshold of 150 nm, below which inhibitory effects increased markedly. Higher soil organic carbon concentrations partially mitigated enzymatic inhibition, likely through competitive adsorption and reduced nanoplastic bioavailability. Overall, our findings demonstrate that NP-induced inhibition of soil enzymatic activity is widespread and primarily governed by particle size, exposure concentration, and soil properties. The identified 150 nm threshold should be interpreted as a data-driven hypothesis requiring further validation under environmentally realistic exposure scenarios rather than as a universal regulatory limit. Nevertheless, the integration of three-level meta-analysis with interpretable machine learning (SHAP) provides a robust and reproducible framework for identifying key toxicity drivers and supports future ecological risk assessment and evidence-based regulatory decision-making for nanoplastics.
Since the protocol for counterfactual quantum communication was proposed, complete counterfactuality can be achieved as there are no physical particles in the transmission channel. However, it relies on some restrictive factors, such as requiring an infinite number of beam splitters and no degradation. We conducted numerical simulations to assess the reliability of quantum communication combined with the actual test environment and found that the inevitable degradation, including component losses or path losses, limits the number of beam splitters. Furthermore, we carried out the experimental simulation of a high-reliability direct communication protocol using the method of controllable-signal attenuation. The peak reliability of that was obtained was much higher than the current communication protocol of the chained interferometer system. The optimized experimental equipment could compensate the system’s balance under various restrictive conditions and make it possible to achieve 100% reliability with imperfect interferometers.
