A three-bit parity checker is used as a case study. It is first shown that, as expected, the stuck-at fault model is not appropriate for testing CML gates. It is then proved that switching the order in which inputs are applied to a gate will affect the minimum test set;this is not the case in conventional voltage mode gates. Both the circuit output and its inverse have to be monitored to reduce the size of the test set.展开更多

The typical content of unit testing for the new organizing mode should have three aspects, including self-checking, cross-testing and independent-testing. For cross-testing, executing “pair-wise” mode, mainly tackles data testing, function testing and state testing, which function testing must be done by details and state testing must be considered for completeness. With the specializing of independent-testing, it should be taken as more rigid testing without arbitrariness. Consequently, strategy and measure are addressed for data testing focusing on boundary testing and function/state testing. And organizing method of procedure and key points of tackling unit testing are investigated for the new organizing mode. In order to assess the validity of our study and approach, a series of actual examples are demonstrated for GUI software. The result indicates that the execution of unit testing for the new organizing mode is effective and applicable.展开更多

Aiming at these problems, an optimal test selection method for fault detection and isolation in the multi-operating mode system is proposed by using the fault pair coding and rollout algorithm. Firstly,the faults in fault-test correlation matrices under different operating modes are combined to fault-pairs, which is used to construct the fault pair-test correlation matrices under different operating modes.Secondly, the final fault pair-test correlation matrix of the multioperating mode system is obtained by operating the fault pair-test correlation matrices under different operating modes. Based on the final fault pair-test correlation matrix, the necessary tests are selected by the rollout algorithm orderly. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed method is verified by examples of the optimal test selection in the multi-operating mode system with faults isolated to different levels. The result shows that the proposed method can effectively mine the fault detection and isolation ability of tests and it is suitable for the optimal test selection of the multi-operating mode system with faults isolated to the replacement unit and specific fault.展开更多

Then, numerical modelling was established to further study the slope dynamic stability under purely microseisms and the influence of five factors, including seismic amplitude, slope height, slope angle, strata inclination and strata thickness, were considered. The experimental results show that the natural frequency of the slope decreases and damping ratio increases as the earthquake loading times increase. The dynamic strength reduction method is adopted for the stability evaluation of the bedding rock slope in numerical simulation, and the slope stability decreases with the increase of seismic amplitude, increase of slope height, reduction of strata thickness and increase of slope angle. The failure mode of a mid-dip bedding rock slope in the shaking table test is integral slipping along the bedding surface with dipping tensile cracks at the slope rear edge going through the bedding surfaces. In the numerical simulation, the long-term stability of a mid-dip bedding slope is worst under frequent microseisms and the slope is at risk of integral sliding instability, whereas the slope rock mass is more broken than shown in the shaking table test. The research results are of practical significance to better understand the formation mechanism of reservoir landslides and prevent future landslide disasters.展开更多

One particular subfamily seems very promising for use in general pseudodynamic testing since the stability problem for a structure does not need to be considered. This is because this subfamily is unconditionally stable for any instantaneous stiffness softening system, linear elastic system and instantaneous stiffness hardening system that might occur in the pseudodynamic testing of a real structure. In addition, it also offers good accuracy when compared to a general second-order accurate method for both linear elastic and nonlinear systems.展开更多

The formation mode and soil-water interaction mechanism of the debris flows were analyzed from both macroscopic and microscopic points of view respectively using high digital imaging equipment and micro-structure analysis software Geodip. The test results indicate that the forming process of debris flow mainly consists of three stages, namely the infiltration and softening stage, the overall slide stage, and debris flow stage. The essence of simulated coarse sand slope forming debris flow is that local fluidization cause slope to wholly slide. The movement of small particles forms a transient stagnant layer with increasing saturation, causing soil shear strength lost and local fluidization. When the driving force of the saturated soil exceeds the resisting force, debris flow happens on the coarse sand slope immediately.展开更多

The uniaxial and biaxial compressive performances of three-dimensional reinforced carbon/carbon composites (3D C/C) were investigated in this paper. The results showed that the compressive strength becomes larger when the loading direction parallels to the z-direction of 3D C/C. The uniaxial compression failure was mainly caused by fracture fiber bundles to form an overall shear fault in the z-direction. The failure mode was delamination of fiber bundle/matrix interface for the x- and y-direction samples. The biaxial compressive failure of x-y direction compressioncompression specimen was caused by the low interlaminar shear strength. In addition,for y-z and z-x direction compression-compression samples,the shear-type failure was formed on the surface of the specimen plumbing the loading direction. Overall,the weak-interface is still a main factor to influent the fracture mechanism of 3D C/C.展开更多

To prevent the environment from polluting, the request of emissions control legislation becomes more stringent. New legislation prescribes not only the emissions limitation of vehicles, but also testing instruments and methods. Test car must be operated on the chassis dynamometer and data must be collect ed and analyzed with prescriptive exhaust analysis system as well. The mass of harmful exhaust gas, containing the concentration and volume of emis sion, which is independent from the model of automobile and engine, can be used as a criterion to evaluate the pollution of an automobile. Constant Volume Sampl e System (CVS) is used to measure vehicle emissions, but it is too expensive to apply extensively. The Vehicle Mass Analysis System(Vmas), a new vehicle exhaust mass analysis system produced in USA late 1990s,is used to test and analyze veh icle exhaust. As a test instrument, it has the virtue of cheapness and easy mana geability. In this paper, Vmas is used to measure the emissions of a light truck CA1020F. A ccording to 15 running modes of Vehicle Exhaust Legislation, the test car is ope rated on the chassis dynamometer and data are collected and analyzed with Vmas. The test results show that it is viable to measure and evaluate automobile emiss ion with Vmas. Most of HC exhaust is produced when the car is decelerating. The major factor that influences the mass of HC emission is the sudden decrease of e ngine load causing incomplete combustion in decelerating mode. Test results indi cate CO and NOx are mainly produced in the process of increasing load. The forme r reason is incomplete combustion and the latter is high burning temperature cau sed by the increasing load. The methods of reducing automobile emission are also discussed in this paper.展开更多

The method adopted the equivalence source wave theorem and Baum-Liu-Tesche(BLT) equation as its theory foundation. The equivalent corresponding relation between injection voltage and radiation electric field intensity is derived, and the phase relation between the two injection voltage sources is confirmed. The results indicate that the amplitude and phase of the equivalent injection voltage source is closely related to the S parameter of directional coupling device, the transmission line length, and the source vector in BLT equation, but has nothing to do with the reflection coefficient between the two equipment pieces. Therefore, by choosing the right amplitude and phase of the double injection voltage sources, the DDMCI test is equivalent to the radiation test for two interconnected equipment of a system.展开更多

文摘It is important to reveal the performance of carbon/carbon composites subjected to complex loading, which can provide a basis for developing the failure laws of carbon/carbon composites. The uniaxial and biaxial compressive performances of three-dimensional reinforced carbon/carbon composites (3D C/C) were investigated in this paper. The results showed that the compressive strength becomes larger when the loading direction parallels to the z-direction of 3D C/C. The uniaxial compression failure was mainly caused by fracture fiber bundles to form an overall shear fault in the z-direction. The failure mode was delamination of fiber bundle/matrix interface for the x- and y-direction samples. The biaxial compressive failure of x-y direction compressioncompression specimen was caused by the low interlaminar shear strength. In addition,for y-z and z-x direction compression-compression samples,the shear-type failure was formed on the surface of the specimen plumbing the loading direction. Overall,the weak-interface is still a main factor to influent the fracture mechanism of 3D C/C.

文摘Abstract By testing and analyzing BJ-RUC forecast of one precipitation process, MODE was introduced. MODE could give objective comparison from position of precipitation falling zone, shape and direction, and reflect intensity difference between forecast and actual situation, which comprehensively reflected precipitation forecast performance of the model, and was close to subjective judgment thinking of forecaster.
文摘Nowadays harmful gas in vehicle exhaust has pollute d air heavily. To prevent the environment from polluting, the request of emissions control legislation becomes more stringent. New legislation prescribes not only the emissions limitation of vehicles, but also testing instruments and methods. Test car must be operated on the chassis dynamometer and data must be collect ed and analyzed with prescriptive exhaust analysis system as well. The mass of harmful exhaust gas, containing the concentration and volume of emis sion, which is independent from the model of automobile and engine, can be used as a criterion to evaluate the pollution of an automobile. Constant Volume Sampl e System (CVS) is used to measure vehicle emissions, but it is too expensive to apply extensively. The Vehicle Mass Analysis System(Vmas), a new vehicle exhaust mass analysis system produced in USA late 1990s,is used to test and analyze veh icle exhaust. As a test instrument, it has the virtue of cheapness and easy mana geability. In this paper, Vmas is used to measure the emissions of a light truck CA1020F. A ccording to 15 running modes of Vehicle Exhaust Legislation, the test car is ope rated on the chassis dynamometer and data are collected and analyzed with Vmas. The test results show that it is viable to measure and evaluate automobile emiss ion with Vmas. Most of HC exhaust is produced when the car is decelerating. The major factor that influences the mass of HC emission is the sudden decrease of e ngine load causing incomplete combustion in decelerating mode. Test results indi cate CO and NOx are mainly produced in the process of increasing load. The forme r reason is incomplete combustion and the latter is high burning temperature cau sed by the increasing load. The methods of reducing automobile emission are also discussed in this paper.

文摘Objective:Pelvic floor sensory training is commonly used in clinical practice for the treatment of stress urinary incontinence(SUI);however,there is a lack of comparative studies evaluating pelvic floor sensation between women with SUI and healthy controls.Additionally,normative data for two-point discrimination thresholds in the female pelvic floor region remain scarce.This study aims to compare the results of 4 sensory tests in the pelvic floor region between women with mild SUI and healthy women,in order to provide reference values for two-point discrimination thresholds in this area.Methods:From April 1 to October 30,2023,108 healthy women[(32.5±3.6)years]and 90 women with mild SUI[(32.9±3.3)years]were recruited from the Third Xiangya Hospital,Central South University.Participants underwent 4 sensory tests in the pelvic floor region:Two-dot discrimination,weight perception,shape recognition,and 9-grid localization.The results were compared between the 2 groups.Results:Compared with healthy women,those with mild SUI had lower sensitivity and higher thresholds in 2-dot discrimination tests in the pelvic floor region(all P<0.001).No significant differences were found between groups in weight perception,shape recognition,or grid localization tests(P>0.05).Conclusion:Women with mild stress urinary incontinence have impaired two-point discrimination ability in the pelvic floor region.

文摘There are the application scope limits for single differential-mode current injection test method, so in order to carry out injection susceptibility test for two-pieces equipment interconnected with both ends of a cable simultaneously, a double differential-mode current in- jection test method (DDMCI) is proposed. The method adopted the equivalence source wave theorem and Baum-Liu-Tesche(BLT) equation as its theory foundation. The equivalent corresponding relation between injection voltage and radiation electric field intensity is derived, and the phase relation between the two injection voltage sources is confirmed. The results indicate that the amplitude and phase of the equivalent injection voltage source is closely related to the S parameter of directional coupling device, the transmission line length, and the source vector in BLT equation, but has nothing to do with the reflection coefficient between the two equipment pieces. Therefore, by choosing the right amplitude and phase of the double injection voltage sources, the DDMCI test is equivalent to the radiation test for two interconnected equipment of a system.

文摘With the change of the main influencing factors such as structural configuration and impact conditions,reinforced concrete slabs exhibit different mechanical behaviors with different failure patterns,and the failure modes are transformed.In order to reveal the failure mode and transformation rule of reinforced concrete slabs under impact loads,a dynamic impact response test was carried out using a drop hammer test device.The dynamic data pertaining to the impact force,support reaction force,structural displacement,and reinforcement strain were obtained through the use of digital image correlation technology(DIC),impact force measurement,and strain measurement.The analysis of the ultimate damage state of the reinforced concrete slab identified four distinct types of impact failure modes:local failure by stamping,overall failure by stamping,local-overall coupling failure,and local failure by punching.Additionally,the influence laws of hammerhead shape,hammer height,and reinforcement ratio on the dynamic response and failure mode transformation of the slab were revealed.The results indicate that:(1)The local damage to the slab by the plane hammer is readily apparent,while the overall damage by the spherical hammer is more pronounced.(2)In comparison to the high reinforcement ratio slabs,the overall bending resistance of the low reinforcement ratio slabs is significantly inferior,and the slab back exhibits further cracks.(3)As the hammer height increases,the slab failure mode undergoes a transformation,shifting from local failure by stamping and overall failure by stamping to local-overall coupling failure and local failure by punching.(4)Three failure mode thresholds have been established,and by comparing the peak impact force with the failure thresholds,the failure mode of the slab can be effectively determined.
文摘Ice load on underwater vehicles breaking through ice covers from underneath is a significant concern for researchers in polar exploration,and the research on this problem is still in its early stages.Both mechanical experimental measurement and numerical simulation pose research challenges.This study focuses on the ice load of a cylinder structure breaking upward through the ice sheet form underneath in the Small Ice Model Basin of China Ship Scientific Research Center(CSSRC SIMB).A high-speed camera system was employed to observe the ice sheet failure during the tests,in which,with the loading position as center,local radial cracks and circumferential cracks were generated.A load sensor was used to measure the overall ice load during this process.Meanwhile,a numerical model was developed using LS-DYNA for validation and comparison.With this model,numerical simulation was conducted under various ice thicknesses and upgoing speeds to analyze the instantaneous curves of ice load.The calculation results were statistically analyzed under different working conditions to determine the influence of the factors on the ice load of the cylinder.The study explores the measurement method about ice load of objects vertically breaking through model ice sheet and is expected to provide some fundamental insights into the safety design of underwater structures operating in ice waters.

文摘Considering the challenges posed by external disturbances on carrier-based aircraft land-ing control,higher demands are required for the precision and convergence of the carrier landingcontrol system.First,this paper proposes an Adaptive Terminal Sliding Combined Super TwistingControl(ATS-STC)method to address the issues of low precision,slow convergence,and poor dis-turbance rejection capability resulting from external disturbances,such as carrier air-wake and deckmotion.By introducing a nonlinear term into the sliding surface and employing an integralapproach,the proposed ATS-STC method can ensure finite-time convergence and mitigate the chat-tering problem.An adaptive law is also utilized to estimate the external disturbances,therebyenhancing the anti-disturbance performance.Then,the stability and convergence time analysis ofthe designed controller are conducted.Based on the proposed method,an Automatic Carrier Land-ing System(ACLS)is developed to perform the carrier landing control task.Furthermore,a multi-dimensional validation is carried out.For the numerical simulation test,the Terminal Sliding ModeControl(TSMC)method and Proportion Integration Differentiation(PID)method are introducedas comparison,the quantitative assessment results show that the tracking error of TSMC and PIDcan reach 1.5 times and 2 times that of the proposed method.Finally,the Hardware-in-the-Loop(HIL)test and real flight test are conducted.All the experimental results demonstrate that the pro-posed control method is more effective and precise.
