This program is suitable for digital phase locked loop (DPLL) drive technology that proposed in other papers.

Urban adaptation is aimed at the sensitivity level of risks and specific impacts of cities under the impact of climate change, and to develop policies and investment programs to reduce the vulnerability of cities to climate change risk. Urban adaptive action provides the basis and direction for the construction of urban resilience and sustainable development. Identifying the demand of adaption technologies, promoting the practical implementation of international technology transfer and reducing domestic emissions have important significance for the global response to climate change and improvement of the ability of urban adaptation. In this paper, through in-depth analysis on the concept and connotation of climate change, climate disasters and urban adaptation to climate change, the evaluation framework and steps of urban adaptation to climate change technology are determined, and six priority application technologies which can maximize the overall efficiency of sustainable development, improve the ability to adapt to climate change and at the same time reduce the cost at the greatest extent are identified.展开更多

Their commercial application and technical principle are analyzed too. The MIP technology with wide feed adaptability can form a good combination with other technologies. The MIP technology has been applied extensively in China. Based on this platform, the CGP, MIP-LTG and MIP-DCR technologies have been developed, which can further improve the flexibility of MIP technology. Based on its novel reaction control technique with a sole sequential two-zone riser, the MIP users can easily switch to different operating modes between producing either more clean gasoline and propylene or diesel through changing the catalysts and varying the operating conditions. That offers MIP users with enough production flexibility and a rational production arrangement to meet the market demand. The MIP-DCR technology with less dry gas and coke yields can provide a more flexible operating mode since the catalysts to oil ratio has become an independent variable.展开更多

Sponge city technology is widely used as the critical approaches in natural rainwater management and it is one of the best techniques to adapt climate change events in modern cities. In the paper, we firstly reviewed background information of sponge city construction and the development, key technologies, and economic benefit analysis of stormwater management in foreign countries. Then, we analyzed the technology gap between China and developed countries in two aspects (planning design method and Low Impact Development (LID) project design). Then, we pointed out the main obstacles in sponge city technology transfer and proposed to improve the basic data sharing system and strengthen the economic return system. On the basis of sponge city planning theory and sponge city technologies, taking Shenzhen as an example, we analyzed the ideas and plans of sponge city construction in rainy areas and completed the assessment of current climate technology demands in Chinese sponge city. The study provides the basis for the improvements in sponge city construction and adaptation to climate change.展开更多

Based on its novel reaction control technique with a sole sequential two-zone riser, the MIP users can easily switch to different operating modes between producing either more clean gasoline and propylene or diesel through changing the catalysts and varying the operating conditions. That offers MIP users with enough production flexibility and a rational production arrangement to meet the market demand. The MIP-DCR technology with less dry gas and coke yields can provide a more flexible operating mode since the catalysts to oil ratio has become an independent variable.

文摘Controller placement problem(CPP)is a critical issue in software defined wireless networks(SDWN).Due to the limited power of wireless devices,CPP is facing the challenge of energy efficiency in SDWN.Nevertheless,the related research on CPP in SDWN hasn’t modeled the energy consumption of controllers so far.To prolong the lifetime of SDWN and improve the practicability of research,we rebuilt a CPP model considering the minimal transmitted power of controllers.An adaptive controller placement algorithm(ACPA)is proposed with the following two stages.First,data field method is adopted to determine sub-networks for different network topologies.Second,for each sub-network we adopt an exhaustive method to find the optimal location which meets the minimal average transmitted power to place controller.Compared with the other algorithms,the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed scheme are validated through simulation.
文摘Sponge city is a development pattern used to realize natural accumulation, natural infiltration and natural purification of rainwater through urban planning and construction management. Sponge city technology is widely used as the critical approaches in natural rainwater management and it is one of the best techniques to adapt climate change events in modern cities. In the paper, we firstly reviewed background information of sponge city construction and the development, key technologies, and economic benefit analysis of stormwater management in foreign countries. Then, we analyzed the technology gap between China and developed countries in two aspects (planning design method and Low Impact Development (LID) project design). Then, we pointed out the main obstacles in sponge city technology transfer and proposed to improve the basic data sharing system and strengthen the economic return system. On the basis of sponge city planning theory and sponge city technologies, taking Shenzhen as an example, we analyzed the ideas and plans of sponge city construction in rainy areas and completed the assessment of current climate technology demands in Chinese sponge city. The study provides the basis for the improvements in sponge city construction and adaptation to climate change.

文摘The space partitioning algorithm based on the rounding and addressing operations has been proved to be an efficient space partitioning algorithm with the potential for real-time calculation.An improvement on this kind of space partitioning algorithms for solving complex 3D models is presented.Numerical examples show that the efficiency of the improved algorithm is better than that of the original method.When the size of most target elements is smaller than the size of spatial grids,the efficiency of the improved method can be more than four times of that of the original method.An adaptive method of space partitioning based on the improved algorithm is developed by taking the surface element density or the curvature as the threshold for deep partitioning and conducting the deep partitioning using the octree method.A computer program implementation for applying the method in some typical applications is discussed,and the performance in terms of the efficiency,reliability,and resource use is evaluated.Application testing shows that the results of the adaptive spacing partitioning are more convenient for the follow-up use than that of the basic uniform space partitioning.Furthermore,when it is used to calculate the electromagnetic scattering of complex targets by the ray tracing(RT)method,the adaptive space partitioning algorithm can reduce the calculation time of the RT process by more than 40%compared with the uniform space segmentation algorithm.
文摘An adaptive multiscale edge detection method based on region energy analysis is presented here. Region energy distributions of both sides in different edge directions are studied. Based on the analysis and on the ratio between region energy threshold difference and region area, the adaptive multiscale edge detection rnethod is developed. The experiment result shows that the new method is effective, feasible and noise-resistant in image detection.

文摘An adaptive backstepping sliding mode control approach is introduced to control the pitch motion of a rocket launcher. Its control law is proposed to guarantee that the control system is ultimately bounded in a Lyapunov sense and make the servo system track the instruction of reference position globally and asymptotically. In addition, the sliding mode control can restrain the effects of parameter uncertainties and external disturbance. The functions of adaptive mechanism and sliding mode control are analyzed through the simulation in the different conditions.The simulation results illustrate that the method is applicable and robust.
文摘This research investigates a broad range of possible factors affecting the adoption of new technology in the banking industry using adaptive LASSO and a standard logit model.The research integrated the adoption of the innovation framework and the technology acceptance theory to develop a conceptual framework for the analysis.Primary data was collected from 400 bank customers in North Cyprus.Risk perception and other customerspecific factors such as perceived risk index and negative attitude toward new technologies index were formulated for the proposed conceptual model.The findings indicated that individuals with a negative attitude toward new technology are least likely to adopt internet banking.In addition,the logit model suggested that age,education level,and general(innate)innovativeness significantly impact the adoption of internet banking.However,gender,income,occupation,perceived risk,familiarity with the internet,and social inclusion have no significant impact on internet banking adoption in North Cyprus.
