After reviewing the current methods for identifying regional types of floating population,this paper puts forward a new composite-index identification method and its modification version which is consisted of two indexes of the net migration rate and gross migration rate. Then,the traditional single-index and the new composite-index identification methods are empirically tested to explore their spatial patterns and characteristics by using China's 2000 census data at county level. The results show:(1) The composite-index identification method is much better than traditional single-index method because it can measure the migration direction and scale of floating simultaneously,and in particular it can identify the unique regional types of floating population with large scale of immigration and emigration. (2) The modified composite-index identification method,by using the share of a region's certain type of floating population to the total in China as weights,can effectively correct the over-or under-estimated errors due to the rather large or small total population of a region. (3) The spatial patterns of different regional types of China's floating population are closely related to the regional differentiation of their natural environment,population density and socio-economic development level. The three active regional types of floating population are mainly located in the eastern part of China with lower elevation,more than 800 mm precipitation,rather higher population densities and economic development levels.展开更多

In this method, the elements of truncated cone conformal phased arrays are projected to the tangent plane in one generatrix of the truncated cone. Then two dimensional (2D) Chebyshev amplitude distribution optimization is respectively used in two mutual vertical directions of the tangent plane. According to the location of the elements, the excitation current amplitude distribution of each element on the conformal structure is derived reversely, then the excitation current amplitude is further optimized by using the genetic algorithm (GA). A truncated cone problem with 8x8 elements on it, and a 3D pattern desired side lobe level (SLL) up to 35 dB, is studied. By using the hybrid method, the optimal goal is accomplished with acceptable CPU time, which indicates that this hybrid method for the low sidelobe synthesis is feasible.展开更多

The theoretical basis for the extended modelling method with serial sands is systematically presented in the paper and the method has been successfully employed in the sediment experiment of coastal works. According to the Froude Law, the model is designed to be a normal one with movable bed, the geometric scale lambda(L) = lambda(H) = 15, and three scales of sediment grain size are chosen, i.e., lambda(d1) = 0.207; lambda(d2) = 0.393; and lambda(d3) = 0.656. The median particle diameter of sea beach prototype sand d(50p) = 0.059 mm and the dis-changed water flow of the power plant is 21.7 m(3) / s. Three types of natural sea sands have been chosen as the serial modelling sands to extend the simulation of the prototype, thus replacing the conventional test in which artificial lightweight sands are used. As a result, this method can not only reduce the cost significantly, but also it is an advanced technique easy to use. Upon a series of tests, satisfactory results have been obtained.展开更多

With this algorithm, the complex element weights are found to minimize a weighted L2 norm of the difference between desired and achieved pattern. Compared with traditional optimization techniques, CDM is easy to implement and efficient to reach the optimum solutions. Main advantage is the flexibility.

In this study, we investigated RLPDF based on 1990, 2005 and 2012 datasets at two spatial scales using eight state-of-the-art single computing algorithms and four consensus methods in Jinjing rive catchment in Hunan Province, China. At the entire catchment scale, the mean AUC values were between 0.715 (ANN) and 0.948 (RF) for the single-algorithms, and from 0.764 to 0.962 for the consensus methods. At the subcatchment scale, the mean AUC values between 0.624 (CTA) and 0.972 (RF) for the single-algorithms, and from 0.758 to 0.979 for the consensus methods. At the subcatchment scale, the mean AUC values were between 0.624 (CTA) and 0.972 (RF) for the single-algorithms, and from 0.758 to 0.979 for the consensus methods. The result suggested that among the eight single computing algorithms, RF performed the best overall for woodland and paddy field;consensus method showed higher predictive performance for woodland and paddy field models than the single computing algorithms. We compared the simulation results of the best - and worst-performing algorithms for the entire catchment in 2012, and found that approximately 72.5% of woodland and 72.4% of paddy field had probabilities of occurrence of less than 0.1, and 3.6% of woodland and 14.5% of paddy field had probabilities of occurrence of more than 0.5. In other words, the simulation errors associated with using different computing algorithms can be up to 14.5% if a probability level of 0.5 is set as the threshold. The results of this study showed that the choice of modeling approaches can greatly affect the accuracy of RLPDF prediction. The computing algorithms for specific RLPDF tasks in specific regions have to be localized and optimized.展开更多

This paper studies the rotor test-rig and the clustering of data sets and fault pattern recognitions. The present method firstly maps the data from their original space to a high dimensional Kernel space which makes the highly nonlinear data in low-dimensional space become linearly separable in Kernel space. It highlights the differences among the features of the data set. Then fuzzy C-means (FCM) is conducted in the Kernel space. Each data is assigned to the nearest class by computing the distance to the clustering center. Finally, test set is used to judge the results. The convergence rate and clustering accuracy are better than traditional FCM. The study shows that the method is effective for the accuracy of pattern recognition on rotating machinery.展开更多

文摘In 2022,four earthquakes with M_(S)≥6.0 including the Menyuan M_(S)6.9 and Luding M_(S)6.8 earthquakes occurred in the North-South Seismic Zone(NSSZ),which demonstrated high and strong seismicity.Pattern Informatics(PI)method,as an effective long and medium term earthquake forecasting method,has been applied to the strong earthquake forecasting in Chinese mainland and results have shown the positive performance.The earthquake catalog with magnitude above M_(S)3.0 since 1970 provided by China Earthquake Networks Center was employed in this study and the Receiver Operating Characteristic(ROC)method was applied to test the forecasting efficiency of the PI method in each selected region related to the North-South Seismic Zone systematically.Based on this,we selected the area with the best ROC testing result and analyzed the evolution process of the PI hotspot map reflecting the small seismic activity pattern prior to the Menyuan M_(S)6.9 and Luding M_(S)6.8 earthquakes.A“forward”forecast for the area was carried out to assess seismic risk.The study shows the following.1)PI forecasting has higher forecasting efficiency in the selected study region where the difference of seismicity in any place of the region is smaller.2)In areas with smaller differences of seismicity,the activity pattern of small earthquakes prior to the Menyuan M_(S)6.9 and Luding M_(S)6.8 earthquakes can be obtained by analyzing the spatio-temporal evolution process of the PI hotspot map.3)The hotspot evolution in and around the southern Tazang fault in the study area is similar to that prior to the strong earthquakes,which suggests the possible seismic hazard in the future.This study could provide some ideas to the seismic hazard assessment in other regions with high seismicity,such as Japan,Californi,Turkey,and Indonesia.

文摘Objective weather classification methods have been extensively applied to identify dominant ozone-favorable synoptic weather patterns(SWPs),however,the consistency of different classification methods is rarely examined.In this study,we apply two widely-used objective methods,the self-organizing map(SOM)and K-means clustering analysis,to derive ozone-favorable SWPs at four Chinese megacities in 2015-2022.We find that the two algorithms are largely consistent in recognizing dominant ozone-favorable SWPs for four Chinese megacities.In the case of classifying six SWPs,the derived circulation fields are highly similar with a spatial correlation of 0.99 between the two methods,and the difference in themean frequency of each SWP is less than 7%.The six dominant ozone-favorable SWPs in Guangzhou are all characterized by anomaly higher radiation and temperature,lower cloud cover,relative humidity,and wind speed,and stronger subsidence compared to climatology mean.We find that during 2015-2022,the occurrence of ozone-favorable SWPs days increases significantly at a rate of 3.2 days/year,faster than the increases in the ozone exceedance days(3.0 days/year).The interannual variability between the occurrence of ozone-favorable SWPs and ozone exceedance days are generally consistent with a temporal correlation coefficient of 0.6.In particular,the significant increase in ozone-favorable SWPs in 2022,especially the Subtropical High type which typically occurs in September,is consistent with a long-lasting ozone pollution episode in Guangzhou during September 2022.Our results thus reveal that enhanced frequency of ozone-favorable SWPs plays an important role in the observed 2015-2022 ozone increase in Guangzhou.

文摘A method about fault identification is proposed to solve the relationship among fault features of large rotating machinery, which is extremely complicated and nonlinear. This paper studies the rotor test-rig and the clustering of data sets and fault pattern recognitions. The present method firstly maps the data from their original space to a high dimensional Kernel space which makes the highly nonlinear data in low-dimensional space become linearly separable in Kernel space. It highlights the differences among the features of the data set. Then fuzzy C-means (FCM) is conducted in the Kernel space. Each data is assigned to the nearest class by computing the distance to the clustering center. Finally, test set is used to judge the results. The convergence rate and clustering accuracy are better than traditional FCM. The study shows that the method is effective for the accuracy of pattern recognition on rotating machinery.

文摘Estimating fracture size is a fundamental aspect of rock engineering.However,determining the most probable diameter(MPD)from a fracture's surface trace remains challenging in the scientific community.The prevailing methodologies typically infer statistical distributions of fracture sizes rather than specific values.This research presents a novel approach to inferring the MPD and the true spatial distribution pattern of each fracture.The challenge lies in linking the inference process with the trace length of each fracture and the statistical characteristics of the entire outcrop.Additionally,it is necessary to address the non-unique inverse problem.The methodology comprises several key steps.Firstly,the issue of censoring bias is addressed by considering the lengths of the traces contained.Secondly,the orientation bias is corrected using the vector method,and the true mean trace length and standard deviation are estimated and derived.Thirdly,assuming a lognormal distribution for fracture sizes,the mean and standard deviation of diameters are derived through a high-order moment relationship between trace lengths and diameters,validated by Crofton's theorem.Finally,the MPDs of all trace samples are determined by relating MPDs to trace lengths and the standard deviation of diameters using stereology techniques.Furthermore,the true fracture spatial patterns are inverted based on spatial geometric relationships.The proposed methodology is validated through rigorous Monte Carlo simulation and applied in a practical engineering case study,demonstrating its potential for use in rock engineering applications.

文摘The drilling gas production situation indicates a certain correlation between the shale gas reservoir in the Sichuan Basin and the high and low changes in formation resistivity.These variations are observed in the first member of the Longmaxi Formation to the Wufeng Formation at the bottom of the Longmaxi Formation.Given this correlation and based on the logging electrical data,this study employs the wide-field electromagnetic method(WFEM)to experimentally detect the electrical characteristics of the deep shale gas target layer in the Yibin area of southern Sichuan.The study also tests the regularity and effectiveness of the electrical parameters for evaluating favorable areas of shale gas reservoirs.In terms of specific operation,the structural pattern of the study area is implemented based on the wide-field electromagnetic results and geological data for comprehensive analysis,which identifies the main hidden faults and their influence range on low resistance.The detailed spatial distribution of the upper Ordovician Wufeng Formation and the lower Silurian Longmaxi Formation in the target layer with a buried depth of 2000-5000m is described.This layer exhibits the characteristics of a continuous and stable distribution of organic shale.After verifying the subsequent electrical logging data,the electrical logging curve is found to be essentially consistent with the shape and trend of the wide-field resistivity curve.This consistency demonstrates the effectiveness of WFEM in detecting shale gas layers.

文摘Random media like concrete and ceramics exhibit stochastic crack propagation due to their heterogeneous microstructures.This study establishes a Conditional Generative Adversarial Network(CGAN)combined with randomfieldmodeling for the efficient prediction of stochastic crack patterns and stress-strain responses.Atotal dataset of 500 samples,including crack propagation images and corresponding stress-strain curves,is generated via random Finite Element Method(FEM)simulations.This dataset is then partitioned into 400 training and 100 testing samples.Themodel demonstrates robust performance with Intersection overUnion(IoU)scores of 0.8438 and 0.8155 on training and testing datasets,and R2 values of 0.9584 and 0.9462 in stress-strain curve predictions.By using these results,the CGAN is subsequently implemented as a surrogate model for large-scale Monte Carlo(MC)Simulations to capture the key statistical characteristics such as crack density and spatial distribution.Compared to conventional FEM-based methods,this approach reduces the computational cost to about 1/250 while maintaining high prediction accuracy.The methodology establishes a viable pathway for probabilistic fracture analysis in quasi-brittle materials,balancing computational efficiency with physical fidelity in capturing material stochasticity.

文摘The Mohorovicic discontinuity(Moho)boundary separating the Earth’s crust and mantle reflects the evolutionary trajectory of the Earth’s crust,yielding crucial insights into crustal formation,tectonic evolution,and profound dynamic processes.However,the prevailing Moho models for China and its adjacent areas suffer from limited accuracy,owing to the irregular and sparse distribution of seismic data collection.In this study,we employ gravimetric data to derive Moho depth,and employ Bott’s regularization method,integrating gravity and seismic data to reconstruct the Moho structure with high precision in a three-dimensional framework across China and its adjacent areas.By optimizing gravity potential field separation and interface inversion techniques,we present a detailed and accurate zoning scheme for classifying China and its adjacent areas into 35 gradient belts,6 primary tectonic units,and 35 secondary tectonic units,based on the spatial distribution characteristics of the Moho discontinuity.Notably,our tectonic pattern division results surpass previous studies in terms of resolution,providing a wealth of tectonic information.Leveraging the Moho depth model of China and its adjacent areas,we discuss orogenic belts,sedimentary basins,fault systems,plate boundaries,and land-sea coupled tectonic patterns.We meticulously summarize the Moho depth distribution characteristics of each tectonic unit,while exploring the macrostructural framework and geological significance of the study area.Our findings highlight the close relationship between China and its adjacent areas Moho depth model and deep geodynamics,elucidating the tectonic evolution both between and within tectonic plates,as well as the tectonic effects induced by mantle dynamics.These insights have crucial implications for the study of deep geodynamics in China and its adjacent areas.
文摘This review paper provides a comprehensive introduction to various numerical methods for the phase-field model used to simulate the phase separation dynamics of diblock copolymer melts.Diblock copolymer systems form complex structures at the nanometer scale and play a significant role in various applications.The phase-field model,in particular,is essential for describing the formation and evolution of these structures and is widely used as a tool to effectively predict the movement of phase boundaries and the distribution of phases over time.In this paper,we discuss the principles and implementations of various numerical methodologies for this model and analyze the strengths,limitations,stability,accuracy,and computational efficiency of each method.Traditional approaches such as Fourier spectral methods,finite difference methods and alternating direction explicit methods are reviewed,as well as recent advancements such as the invariant energy quadratization method and the scalar auxiliary variable scheme are also presented.In addition,we introduce examples of the phase-field model,which are fingerprint image restoration and 3D printing.These examples demonstrate the extensive applicability of the reviewed methods and models.

文摘This study explored the observation strategy and effectiveness of synoptic-scale adaptive observations for improving sea fog prediction in coastal regions around the Bohai Sea based on a poorly predicted fog event with cold-front synoptic pattern(CFSP).An ensemble Kalman filter data assimilation system for the Weather Research and Forecasting model was adopted with ensemble sensitivity analysis(ESA).By comparing observation impacts(estimated from a 40-member ensemble with ESA)among different meteorological observation variables and pressure levels,the temperature at 850 hPa and surface layer(850 hPa-and-surface temperature)was selected as the target observation type.Additionally,the area with large observation impacts for this observation type was predicted in the transition region of the surface low–high system.This area developed southward with the low and moved eastward with the low–high system,which could be explained by the main features of CFSP.Moreover,both experiments assimilating synthetic and real observations showed that assimilating 850 hPa-and-surface temperature observations generally yielded better fog coverage forecasts in areas with greater observation impacts than areas with smaller impacts.However,the effectiveness of adaptive observations was reduced when real observations rather than synthetic observations were assimilated,which is possibly due to factors such as observation and model errors.The main conclusions above were verified by another typical fog event with CFSP characteristics.Results of this study highlight the importance of improved initial conditions in the transition region of the low–high system for improving fog prediction and provide scientific guidance for implementing an observation network for fog forecasting over the Bohai Sea.
文摘In this paper,a method for designing supermassive sparse phased arrays(SMSPAs)known as the unitary modified matrix enhancement and matrix pencil(UMMEMP)method is proposed.In this method,an eigenvalue pairing method,which is inspired by the modified MEMP,effectively pairs the repeated eigenvalues intractable in the unitary matrix pencil method,and it is more effective in determining the locations of elements in the sparse array.Three numerical examples and a full-wave validation are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the method,implemented via SMSPA,in achieving low sidelobe level wide-angle scanning radiation patterns,circular flattop radiation patterns,and ultra wide-angle scanning radiation patterns.
