The results obtained by the mathematical model agree with the data form experiment and numerical simulation, and the results are closer to the experimental and simulation results. The influence of draft angle may be neglected under the forming conditions used. The influence of fillet radius is notable, especially in the case that the ratio of fillet radius to rib width is less than 0.75.展开更多

In this system, the cytosine base editor(CBE) and adenine base editor(ABE) allow generating precise and irreversible base mutations in a programmable manner and have been used in many different types of cells and organisms. However, their applications are limited by low editing efficiency at certain genomic target sites or at specific target cytosine(C) or adenine(A) residues. Using a strategy of combining optimized synergistic core components, we developed a new multiplex super-assembled ABE(sABE) in rice that showed higher base-editing efficiency than previously developed ABEs. We also designed a new type of nuclear localization signal(NLS) comprising a FLAG epitope tag with four copies of a codon-optimized NLS(F4NLS^(r2)) to generate another ABE named F4NLS-sABE. This new NLS increased editing efficiency or edited additional A at several target sites. A new multiplex super-assembled CBE(sCBE) and F4NLS^(r2) involved F4NLS-sCBE were also created using the same strategy. F4NLS-sCBE was proven to be much more efficient than sCBE in rice. These optimized base editors will serve as powerful genome-editing tools for basic research or molecular breeding in rice and will provide a reference for the development of superior editing tools for other plants or animals.展开更多

Finally, it combined with the results of principal component analysis to explain the significance of various types of integrated software operating characteristics. And it is used as the basis for optimizing the allocation of software hardware resources and improving the efficiency of software operation.展开更多

The improved algorithm effectively accelerates the speed of convergence and offers better stability by introducing a damping factor for updating the stripping factor, and also reduces the requirement on the initial estimates by updating the Joacobian matrix directly with the stripping factor and enthalpy. On the other hand, an efficient algorithm was proposed to solve the approximate tri-diagonal matrix (containing the off-band elements) derived from the material balance equations (M equations) and phase equilibrium equations (E equations), the advantages and simplicity of the “insideout” technique of the Russell are retained. The present algorithm was demonstrated to be effective in simulating complex separation columns with typical case studies.展开更多

Spatially, the size of local defects is relatively small compared to the structural scale. Different length scales should be adopted considering the efficiency and computational cost. In the principle of physics, different length scales are stipulated to correspond to different time scales. This concept lays the foundation of the framework for this multiple-time-scale algorithm. A multiple-time-scale algorithm, which involves different time steps for different regions, while enforcing the compatibility of displacement, force and stress fields across the interface, is proposed. Furthermore, a defected beam component is studied as a numerical sample. The structural component is divided into two regions： a coarse one and a fine one; a micro-defect exists in the fine region and the finite element sizes of the two regions are diametrically different. Correspondingly, two different time steps are adopted. With dynamic load applied to the beam, stress and displacement distribution of the defected beam is investigated from the global and local perspectives. The numerical sample reflects that the proposed algorithm is physically rational and computationally efficient in the potential damage simulation of civil structures.展开更多

The problem of dimensionality is pertinent to many learning algorithms, and it denotes the drastic raise of computational complexity, however, we need to use dimensionality reduction methods. These methods include principal component analysis (PCA) and locality preserving projection (LPP). In many real-world classification problems, the local structure is more important than the global structure and dimensionality reduction techniques ignore the local structure and preserve the global structure. The objectives is to compare PCA and LPP in terms of accuracy, to develop appropriate representations of complex data by reducing the dimensions of the data and to explain the importance of using LPP with logistic regression. The results of this paper find that the proposed LPP approach provides a better representation and high accuracy than the PCA approach.展开更多

The relationships of mass distribution (x(i), y(i), i = 1, ..., lambda) between two phases were expressed by 2 lambda dimensional simultaneous equations. These simultaneous equations can be converted to a one-dimension nonlinear equation, then it was solved by Newton-Raphson algorithm within a few number of iteration. Compared with the regular calculation method for the 2 lambda dimensional simultaneous equations, Newton-Raphson algorithm can decrease the number of iteration, increase the convergence of the equations and accelerate the speed of simulation. It was verified in many multi-component systems with satisfactory results. As an example, a five-component system is demonstrated in this paper.展开更多

文摘The clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats(CRISPR)–CRISPR-associated protein(Cas) system has been widely used for genome editing. In this system, the cytosine base editor(CBE) and adenine base editor(ABE) allow generating precise and irreversible base mutations in a programmable manner and have been used in many different types of cells and organisms. However, their applications are limited by low editing efficiency at certain genomic target sites or at specific target cytosine(C) or adenine(A) residues. Using a strategy of combining optimized synergistic core components, we developed a new multiplex super-assembled ABE(sABE) in rice that showed higher base-editing efficiency than previously developed ABEs. We also designed a new type of nuclear localization signal(NLS) comprising a FLAG epitope tag with four copies of a codon-optimized NLS(F4NLS^(r2)) to generate another ABE named F4NLS-sABE. This new NLS increased editing efficiency or edited additional A at several target sites. A new multiplex super-assembled CBE(sCBE) and F4NLS^(r2) involved F4NLS-sCBE were also created using the same strategy. F4NLS-sCBE was proven to be much more efficient than sCBE in rice. These optimized base editors will serve as powerful genome-editing tools for basic research or molecular breeding in rice and will provide a reference for the development of superior editing tools for other plants or animals.

文摘The Grey Wolf Optimization(GWO)algorithm is acknowledged as an effective method for rock acoustic emission localization.However,the conventional GWO algorithm encounters challenges related to solution accuracy and convergence speed.To address these concerns,this paper develops a Simplex Improved Grey Wolf Optimizer(SMIGWO)algorithm.The randomly generating initial populations are replaced with the iterative chaotic sequences.The search process is optimized using the convergence factor optimization algorithm based on the inverse incompleteГfunction.The simplex method is utilized to address issues related to poorly positioned grey wolves.Experimental results demonstrate that,compared to the conventional GWO algorithm-based AE localization algorithm,the proposed algorithm achieves a higher solution accuracy and showcases a shorter search time.Additionally,the algorithm demonstrates fewer convergence steps,indicating superior convergence efficiency.These findings highlight that the proposed SMIGWO algorithm offers enhanced solution accuracy,stability,and optimization performance.The benefits of the SMIGWO algorithm extend universally across various materials,such as aluminum,granite,and sandstone,showcasing consistent effectiveness irrespective of material type.Consequently,this algorithm emerges as a highly effective tool for identifying acoustic emission signals and improving the precision of rock acoustic emission localization.

文摘A multiple-time-scale algorithm is developed to numerically simulate certain structural components in civil structures where local defects inevitably exist. Spatially, the size of local defects is relatively small compared to the structural scale. Different length scales should be adopted considering the efficiency and computational cost. In the principle of physics, different length scales are stipulated to correspond to different time scales. This concept lays the foundation of the framework for this multiple-time-scale algorithm. A multiple-time-scale algorithm, which involves different time steps for different regions, while enforcing the compatibility of displacement, force and stress fields across the interface, is proposed. Furthermore, a defected beam component is studied as a numerical sample. The structural component is divided into two regions： a coarse one and a fine one; a micro-defect exists in the fine region and the finite element sizes of the two regions are diametrically different. Correspondingly, two different time steps are adopted. With dynamic load applied to the beam, stress and displacement distribution of the defected beam is investigated from the global and local perspectives. The numerical sample reflects that the proposed algorithm is physically rational and computationally efficient in the potential damage simulation of civil structures.

文摘The modeling of crack growth in three-dimensional(3D)space poses significant challenges in rock mechanics due to the complex numerical computation involved in simulating crack propagation and interaction in rock materials.In this study,we present a novel approach that introduces a 3D numerical manifold method(3D-NMM)with a geometric kernel to enhance computational efficiency.Specifically,the maximum tensile stress criterion is adopted as a crack growth criterion to achieve strong discontinuous crack growth,and a local crack tracking algorithm and an angle correction technique are incorporated to address minor limitations of the algorithm in a 3D model.The implementation of the program is carried out in Python,using object-oriented programming in two independent modules:a calculation module and a crack module.Furthermore,we propose feasible improvements to enhance the performance of the algorithm.Finally,we demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of the enhanced algorithm in the 3D-NMM using four numerical examples.This study establishes the potential of the 3DNMM,combined with the local tracking algorithm,for accurately modeling 3D crack propagation in brittle rock materials.

文摘A research has been conducted to estimate earthquake source parameters that occurred on June 3rd, 13th, 18th and 19th, 2008. The data used to determine the parameters of earthquakes source are three components local waveform that are recorded by three MY broadband stations (IPM, KOM and KUM) and PSI, Poseidon. In this research, we report a focal mechanism of events using three components local waveform analysis. The seismogram data are inverted to achieve the earthquake source parameters. Source parameters of earthquakes extracted after the reduction variant of each event are over 56%. To identify the fault plane, the HC-plot method is used.

文摘We study the generalized Darboux transformation to the three-component coupled nonlinear Schr ¨odinger equation.First-and second-order localized waves are obtained by this technique.In first-order localized wave,we get the interactional solutions between first-order rogue wave and one-dark,one-bright soliton respectively.Meanwhile,the interactional solutions between one-breather and first-order rogue wave are also given.In second-order localized wave,one-dark-one-bright soliton together with second-order rogue wave is presented in the first component,and two-bright soliton together with second-order rogue wave are gained respectively in the other two components.Besides,we observe second-order rogue wave together with one-breather in three components.Moreover,by increasing the absolute values of two free parameters,the nonlinear waves merge with each other distinctly.These results further reveal the interesting dynamic structures of localized waves in the three-component coupled system.
文摘There are a variety of classification techniques such as neural network, decision tree, support vector machine and logistic regression. The problem of dimensionality is pertinent to many learning algorithms, and it denotes the drastic raise of computational complexity, however, we need to use dimensionality reduction methods. These methods include principal component analysis (PCA) and locality preserving projection (LPP). In many real-world classification problems, the local structure is more important than the global structure and dimensionality reduction techniques ignore the local structure and preserve the global structure. The objectives is to compare PCA and LPP in terms of accuracy, to develop appropriate representations of complex data by reducing the dimensions of the data and to explain the importance of using LPP with logistic regression. The results of this paper find that the proposed LPP approach provides a better representation and high accuracy than the PCA approach.
文摘Nowadays,analysis methods based on big data have been widely used in malicious software detection.Since Android has become the dominator of smartphone operating system market,the number of Android malicious applications are increasing rapidly as well,which attracts attention of malware attackers and researchers alike.Due to the endless evolution of the malware,it is critical to apply the analysis methods based on machine learning to detect malwares and stop them from leakaging our privacy information.In this paper,we propose a novel Android malware detection method based on binary texture feature recognition by Local Binary Pattern and Principal Component Analysis,which can visualize malware and detect malware accurately.Also,our method analyzes malware binary directly without any decompiler,sandbox or virtual machines,which avoid time and resource consumption caused by decompiler or monitor in this process.Experimentation on 5127 benigns and 5560 malwares shows that we obtain a detection accuracy of 90%.
文摘Based on the extraction equilibrium and mass balances in countercurrent extraction systems, a novel method was studied for dealing with the extraction equilibrium and the mass distribution in a multi-component(gamma-component) system. The relationships of mass distribution (x(i), y(i), i = 1, ..., lambda) between two phases were expressed by 2 lambda dimensional simultaneous equations. These simultaneous equations can be converted to a one-dimension nonlinear equation, then it was solved by Newton-Raphson algorithm within a few number of iteration. Compared with the regular calculation method for the 2 lambda dimensional simultaneous equations, Newton-Raphson algorithm can decrease the number of iteration, increase the convergence of the equations and accelerate the speed of simulation. It was verified in many multi-component systems with satisfactory results. As an example, a five-component system is demonstrated in this paper.
