Traditional low-frequency shadow analysis is based on stacked data. In order to understand the BSR low-frequency shadow more clearly, a frequency division analysis on stereoscopic observation seismic data based on the adaptive optimal-kernel (AOK) frequency analysis method is presented. It includes ocean-bottom seismometer (OBS) data (common receiver point data including vertical and horizontal components), vertical cable data (common receiver point data) and horizontal cable data (stacked section of different offsets). The OBS data frequency analysis gets a conclusion that vertical component has a significant effect on the low-frequency shadow, but the horizontal component did not. The vertical cable data shows that the low frequency band of vertical cable is wider than OBS. And then the horizontal cable data frequency analysis points out that the bigger the angle of incidence is, the more obvious the low-frequency shadow will be. The low-frequency shadow feature is shown in the stereoscopic observation field and the visual effect on com- mon reception point data is better. The lateral reservoir distribution characteristics are predicted from low-frequency shadow feature analysis of the hydrate BSR based on stereoscopic observation.展开更多

First, instead of the gamma-log-normal distribution, the log-normal distribution is applied to describe the output signal to noise ratio(SNR) after maximal ratio combining (MRC) at the receiver. Then, assuming that the channel state information(CSI) is available to the transmitter, by employing the Gauss-Hermite integral, an approximate analytical expression of the BER is derived for the downlink of the DAS with antenna selective transmission and MRC. Finally, the results of a Monte Carlo simulation show that the analytical results match the simulation results. Therefore, it can be concluded that the proposed approximate channel model is effective and accurate, and the derived analytical expression can be used to evaluate the real system performance.展开更多

We assume that this lifetime data may be reported imprecisely and that this lack of precision may be described using fuzzy sets. As the direct application of the fuzzy sets methodology leads in this case to very complicated and time consuming calculations, we propose simple approximations of fuzzy numbers using shadowed sets introduced by Pedrycz (1998). The proposed methodology may be simply extended to the case of general lifetime probability distributions.展开更多

Therefore, it is significant to make sure that the panels can work at the maximum power point under MPPT (maximum power point tracking) control. However, it has the problems of low efficiency and unstable operation when panels are covered by the partial shadow. The result is that the output power may be substantially decreased. To overcome this issue, the authors propose a new plug-in operation point correction system. This system is put between PV panels and PCS (power conditioning system) in the existing PV generation system. In this paper, the experimental results describe that the output electric energy increases approximately 1.4 times as compared with the conventional system when the proposed correction system is inserted.展开更多

To stud) the mechanism, we performed seismic numerical simulation of geological models with a hydrocarbon-bearing zone using the 2-D diffusive-viscous wave equation which car effectively model the characteristics of velocity dispersion and transform the seismic dat~ centered in a target layer slice within a time window to the time-frequency domain by usinl time-frequency signal analysis and sort the frequency gathers to common frequency cubes. Then, we observe the characteristics of the seismic low-frequency shadow in the common frequency cubes. The numerical simulations reveal that the main mechanism of seismic lowfrequency shadows is attributed to high attenuation of the medium to high seismic frequency components caused by absorption in the hydrocarbon-filled reservoir. Results from a practical example of seismic low-frequency shadows show that it is possible to identify the reservoir by the low-frequency shadow with high S/N seismic data.展开更多

The seed rain patterns under oak tree crown for three out of four oak trees fit quadratic distribution, with high coefficients of determination. For each of the four trees selected in this study the seed rain size estimated from the viable acorns collected from the traps deployed under the crown was low, ranging from 26 to 259. For each of the four oak trees, the average density of the seed rain under oak tree crown ranged from 0.76 to 7.26 seeds/m 2. The average seed rain density estimated from the acorns in the traps deployed randomly in the field was 1.57 seeds/m 2. After all viable acorns fell, the acorn ground density estimated from the acorns in the quadrats was 0.13 seeds/m 2, but no viable acorns were found on the ground under the tree crown of the four oak trees, although the area under the crown was over 5 folds than the area of the combined quadrats. These results indicated that a large number of acorns was removed or predated by vertebrates once the acorns fell on the ground and acorns predation was more intensive in the sites directly under the parent trees than the sites away from the parent trees; this supports the distance_dependent hypothesis. Of the total acorns of all four oak trees, the viable acorns only accounted for 18.1%, and 17.8% for acorns infected by insect larvae, 12.1% for immature acorns, 3.6% for decayed acorns, and the acorns predated by rodent directly in the crown was the highest, accounting for 48.4%. The proportion of acorns predated by animals including vertebrates and invertebrates amounts up to 78.3%, indicating that acorn predation by animals is a limiting factor affecting acorn survival before seed dispersal. The sustained time of viable acorn fall ranged from September 8 to October 3 for the four oak trees, with the peak between 16th and 26th September. The number of acorns was not significantly different among the four directions around the trunk base.展开更多

文摘Permanently shadowed regions(PSRs)on the Moon are potential reservoirs for water ice,making them hot spots for future lunar exploration.The water ice in PSRs would cause distinctive changes in space weathering there,in particular reduction-oxidation processes that diff er from those in illuminated regions.To determine the characteristics of products formed during space weathering in PSRs,the lunar meteorite NWA 10203 with artifi cially added water was irradiated with a nanosecond laser to simulate a micro-meteorite bombardment of lunar soil containing water ice.The TEM results of the water-incorporated sample showed distinct amorphous rims that exhibited irregular thickness,poor stratifi cation,the appearance of bubbles,and a reduced number of npFe^(0).Additionally,EELS analysis showed the presence of ferric iron at the rim of the nanophase metallic iron particles(npFe^(0))in the amorphous rim with the involvement of water.The results suggest that water ice is another possible factor contributing to oxidation during micrometeorite bombardment on the lunar surface.In addition,it off ers a reference for a new space weathering model that incorporates water in PSRs,which could be widespread on asteroids with volatiles.

文摘Verlinde's emergent gravity(VEG)posits that gravity arises as an emergent phenomenon rooted in the entropic properties of spacetime,challenging the traditional view of gravity as a fundamental force.Building on this paradigm,recent developments have introduced a novel class of black holes within the VEG framework,revealing intriguing connections between apparent dark matter effects and the distribution of baryonic matter.In this study,we delve into the observational signatures of a Simpson–Visser(SV)Minkowski core regular black hole in VEG,focusing on its shadow images and intensity profiles.Our analysis highlights the profound influence of model parameters,including A(governing baryonic matter distribution),B(strength of interaction between apparent dark matter and baryonic matter),and n(characterizing diverse spacetime geometries),on the effective potential and observable properties.Notably,we find that the modifications introduced by these parameters lead to distinct changes in the black hole's shadow size and intensity distribution.Comparing our results to the Reissner–Nordström(RN)black hole,we uncover a striking reduction in the apparent shadow size and an enhancement in intensity for the SV solution in VEG.

文摘The marginal abatement cost(MAC)of CO_(2)emissions is one of the most critical indicators used to assess energy conservation and emission reduction.Although extensively measured,few studies have incorporated the influence of policy constraints when evaluating MAC.To address this gap,this paper proposes a nonparametric directional distance function approach under policy regulations to estimate the CO_(2)shadow price in the construction industry across 30 Chinese provinces from 2010 to 2017.Based on this enhanced method,four key findings emerge:①the annual CO_(2)shadow price exhibits an overall upward trend during the observation period;②regional shadow prices display marked variation across provinces;③regional heterogeneity in shadow prices has increased steadily over time;and④both urbanization rate and energy consumption per unit of gross domestic product are significantly negatively correlated with the CO_(2)shadow price.Finally,the paper offers several policy recommendations for CO_(2)emissions reduction in the Chinese construction industry at the national,industry,and enterprise levels.

文摘In this paper,we investigate the optical properties of a non-rotating charged black hole(BH)in the Einstein-Maxwell-scalar(EMS)theory,together with a plasma medium.We first consider the photon sphere and shadow radius under the impact of the plasma medium existing in the environment surrounding the BH in the EMS theory.We show that the radius of the photon sphere and the BH shadow decrease under the influence of the parameterβ.We further study gravitational weak lensing in detail by adapting general methods and derive the light ray's deflection angle around the BH together with the plasma environment.It is found that for uniform plasma,the deflection angle increases with the rise of the plasma parameter,whereas it decreases with the increase of the plasma parameter for non-uniform plasma.Besides,we also study the magnification of image brightness.

文摘The photon region surrounding a black hole is crucial for distant observers to receive the emitted spectrum from its vicinity.This paper investigates the optical features of a regular spinning antide Sitter(AdS)black hole.These kinds of black holes hold deviation parameter k,and the cosmological constant A including their mass M and spin a.The cosmological parameter depends on the curvature radius by A=-3/l~2.We investigate the structure of geodesics for unstable circular orbits of photons as observed by an observer at specific Boyer-Lindquist coordinates(r_(O),v_(O))in the region between the outer and cosmological horizon,so-called the domain of outer communication.Our investigations include the analysis of three observables from its shadow plot:the black hole shadow radius(R_(s)),the distortion of the black hole(δ_(s)),and shadow area A.With the help of these observables,we calculate the angular diameter of the apparent size of the shadow.The shadows cast by spinning regular spacetimes are smaller compared to those produced by rotating black holes in both general relativity and regular spacetimes.We also calculate the rate at which energy is emitted from the black hole.

文摘Strong low-frequency energy beneath a hydrocarbon reservoir is called a seismic low-frequency shadow and can be used as a hydrocarbon indicator (Tarter et al., 1979) bu the physical mechanism of the observed low-frequency shadow is still unclear. To stud) the mechanism, we performed seismic numerical simulation of geological models with a hydrocarbon-bearing zone using the 2-D diffusive-viscous wave equation which car effectively model the characteristics of velocity dispersion and transform the seismic dat~ centered in a target layer slice within a time window to the time-frequency domain by usinl time-frequency signal analysis and sort the frequency gathers to common frequency cubes. Then, we observe the characteristics of the seismic low-frequency shadow in the common frequency cubes. The numerical simulations reveal that the main mechanism of seismic lowfrequency shadows is attributed to high attenuation of the medium to high seismic frequency components caused by absorption in the hydrocarbon-filled reservoir. Results from a practical example of seismic low-frequency shadows show that it is possible to identify the reservoir by the low-frequency shadow with high S/N seismic data.
文摘The seed shadow of oak ( Quercus liaotungensis Koidz.) was investigated in a broad_leaved deciduous forest in Dongling Mountain in 1997. The seed rain patterns under oak tree crown for three out of four oak trees fit quadratic distribution, with high coefficients of determination. For each of the four trees selected in this study the seed rain size estimated from the viable acorns collected from the traps deployed under the crown was low, ranging from 26 to 259. For each of the four oak trees, the average density of the seed rain under oak tree crown ranged from 0.76 to 7.26 seeds/m 2. The average seed rain density estimated from the acorns in the traps deployed randomly in the field was 1.57 seeds/m 2. After all viable acorns fell, the acorn ground density estimated from the acorns in the quadrats was 0.13 seeds/m 2, but no viable acorns were found on the ground under the tree crown of the four oak trees, although the area under the crown was over 5 folds than the area of the combined quadrats. These results indicated that a large number of acorns was removed or predated by vertebrates once the acorns fell on the ground and acorns predation was more intensive in the sites directly under the parent trees than the sites away from the parent trees; this supports the distance_dependent hypothesis. Of the total acorns of all four oak trees, the viable acorns only accounted for 18.1%, and 17.8% for acorns infected by insect larvae, 12.1% for immature acorns, 3.6% for decayed acorns, and the acorns predated by rodent directly in the crown was the highest, accounting for 48.4%. The proportion of acorns predated by animals including vertebrates and invertebrates amounts up to 78.3%, indicating that acorn predation by animals is a limiting factor affecting acorn survival before seed dispersal. The sustained time of viable acorn fall ranged from September 8 to October 3 for the four oak trees, with the peak between 16th and 26th September. The number of acorns was not significantly different among the four directions around the trunk base.
