    This article focuses on amorphous matters and reviews recent advances in amorphous materials and physics. More recently, more than 30% of the lunar soil collected by China's Chang'e-5 mission was found to be glassy, further confirming the widespread existence of amorphous matter in the universe. Topological order and inhomogeneity may be hidden behind the seemingly chaotic structure of amorphous materials, so amorphous matters have strange genetic, sensitive and relaxation behaviors, and show a series of excellent physical and chemical properties, such as extreme stability, super-plasticity, super mechanical behavior and excellent soft magnetic properties. The new generation of Zr-based and Fe-based amorphous alloys developed based on order regulation and high flux technology are successfully applied to core components such as folding mobile phone hinges and new energy vehicle motors, indicating that amorphous matters have irreplaceable application advantages. The future development of amorphous matters should focus on introducing a new paradigm of material research, attaching importance to the importance of process innovation, promoting the cross-integration of multi-disciplinary fields, giving full play to the advantages of advanced characterization technology and large scientific devices, and creating a whole-chain innovation model for production, university and research, so as to actively promote the rapid development of amorphous materials and physics, and expand the application of amorphous matters in high-tech fields. Make the future of mankind a better place.

    Post−disaster restoration and reconstruction after major disasters is an open and complex mega−system project. This paper attempts to interpret the historical development of post−disaster restoration and reconstruction in China from the system engineering perspective. First, we define major disaster events and provide classification and outline significant catastrophic events since 1949. Secondly, we use Hall's three−dimensional morphology and Wuli−Shili−Renli system approach to construct the system structure of post−disaster restoration and reconstruction from three dimensions: development stages, critical activities, and science and technology. Then, by examining the specific measures of post−disaster restoration and reconstruction in typical catastrophic events and their relationship with the evolution of human−environment interactions, the traditional, sustainable and intelligent patterns of post−disaster restoration and reconstruction systems are revealed. Finally, the historical experiences of China's post−disaster restoration and reconstruction are summarized in five aspects: institutional advantages and legal guarantees, cross−departmental coordination and information sharing, intelligent monitoring and precise needs assessment, infrastructure and cultural construction, and catastrophe relief and insurance.

    After a major disaster, the recovery and reconstruction of housing are related to the stability of urban and rural society and the level of governance. It is not only the reconstruction of the survival foundation but also the reconstruction of social relationships and governance capabilities. It must be planned with a focus on the restoration of real social governance capabilities and how to reduce losses in the event of another major disaster in the future. From the practice of housing recovery and reconstruction, it cannot be separated from the joint promotion of the government and the market. The market can efficiently solve the incentive problem of social forces participating in reconstruction, and the government can more effectively address the restoration of social governance capabilities and future disaster prevention and reduction issues. At the same time, practice has shown that only through cooperation between the government and the market can both aspects be optimally resolved. In the process of "normal society–extraordinary society–reconstruction of normal society", it is necessary to fairly and harmoniously handle the supply of private and public goods in the housing reconstruction process and achieve the modernization of urban and rural governance as the guiding principle of social reconstruction. The analysis of the experience of three sample areas based on housing recovery and reconstruction also demonstrates the value of this understanding. It can be seen that in the process of housing reconstruction after a major disaster, the modernization of urban and rural social governance should be the basic consideration. By establishing a post−disaster housing reconstruction funding support system combining national subsidies and market post−disaster insurance systems, it can incentivize market forces such as enterprises to participate in housing reconstruction and simultaneously regulate housing reconstruction and social reconstruction from the policy and legal levels.

    With the advancement of urbanization, the impact of catastrophe on socio−economic systems in increasing. This paper takes 12 counties (cities) in the hard−hit areas of Wenchuan earthquake in 2008 as the research object, and discusses the temporal and spatial evolution of economic, social and institutional resilience before and after the disaster. The results show that although the Wenchuan earthquake has caused serious damage to various regions, the level of economic, social and institutional resilience in various regions has increased year by year under effective policy support and resource allocation. Based on the research results, this paper proposes strategies such as optimizing resource allocation and infrastructure restoration, improving community participation and self−recovery capabilities, in order to further enhance the economic, social and institutional resilience of geological disaster−prone areas and achieve safer and sustainable development. This study provides an empirical basis for the government and decision makers to formulate more effective disaster response and recovery strategies, and promotes the scientific and systematic development of disaster management and resilience building.

    With the frequent occurrence of extreme rainfall events around the world in recent years, the floods caused by them seriously threaten the safety of human life and property. Due to the abundant rainfall, undulating terrain, and good runoff conditions in mountainous areas. After rain, the flood flow of rivers rises sharply. Serious floods often form in the plains in front of mountains where human activities are frequent. To reduce the impact of floods on the human living environment, it is urgent to research the risk of heavy rainfall floods in the plains in front of mountains. This research will provide scientific guidance for flood prevention and mitigation. In this paper, the Piedmont area in northwestern Balochistan, severely affected by the 2022 floods in Pakistan, is taken as the study area. Two factors were selected as the flood indicators: substrate and climate. The weights of hierarchical analysis and mean squared difference decision method is assigned using the combination of weighting rules. The risk of the study area is calculated by combining the flood hazard resistance of different surface types, infrastructure, and economic development levels. The results show that the flood inundation prediction based on the combined weighting rule is consistent with reality. The predicted inundation area encompasses 90.31% of the actual inundated area. The results indicate that areas of very high risk are primarily located in regions with abundant farmland, low topography, and weak flood resistance. In these areas, floodwaters tend to accumulate.The study demonstrates that this inundation model can accurately predict flood inundation areas. The evaluation results can guide disaster prevention and mitigation efforts in the study area and similar regions along the "Belt and Road" to reduce the risk of flooding.

    Helium is a strategically key resource closely tied to national development and is one of China's extremely scarce mineral resources. Currently, the assessments of helium generation often rely on test results from core or field samples, making it difficult to conduct continuous, comprehensive evaluations of a region. To address this issue, considering that the helium generation is a function of the concentrations of radioactive elements uranium or thorium and time, a method for assessing helium resource based on natural gamma−ray spectrometry logging is proposed. By employing gamma detectors to measure the gamma spectra resulting from natural radioactivity in rock layers and analyzing the variations in gamma spectra caused by different radioactive nuclides, it becomes feasible to continuously determine the uranium and thorium content of each stratum. This result can then be utilized to analyse the helium release content of rock minerals, identify primary helium−bearing rocks, and evaluate the potential helium resources within the strata. Currently, this approach is being applied to forecast helium resource distribution and conduct strategic assessments in the Gucheng, Yakela, Tuofutai, Hetianhe area, as well as across the entire Tarim Basin. In the future, it is necessary to further refine the determination of the helium generation amount in crystalline basement, absolute ages of helium−releasing minerals, and the process of helium dissipation in gas reservoirs during the use of this method.

    Autonomous and intelligent unmanned surface vehicles (USVs) have a wide range of applications in science, commerce, and military fields. Due to the underactuated nature commonly possessed by USVs and the complexity of the maritime environment, the path planning for USVs remains an extremely challenging issue and is also a key technology for USVs. This paper reviews the existing algorithms and the latest research on traditional global and local path planning, intelligent path planning, swarm path planning, and path optimization for USVs. The various constraints considered in USV path planning are summarized and the innovative points, performance, limitations, and practical application scenarios of various path planning methods are analyzed comparatively. The importance of evaluating path under multi−constraint conditions is analyzed and emphasized. Based on existing problems and future trends, some suggestions for future research are proposed.
