SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping) technology plays a crucial role in vehicle localization and navigation. Traditional Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) systems are designed for use in static environments, and they can result in poor performance in terms of accuracy and robustness when used in dynamic environments where objects are in constant movement. To address this issue, a new real-time visual SLAM system called MG-SLAM has been developed. Based on ORB-SLAM2, MG-SLAM incorporates a dynamic target detection process that enables the detection of both known and unknown moving objects. In this process, a separate semantic segmentation thread is required to segment dynamic target instances, and the Mask R-CNN algorithm is applied on the Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) to accelerate segmentation. To reduce computational cost, only key frames are segmented to identify known dynamic objects. Additionally, a multi-view geometry method is adopted to detect unknown moving objects. The results demonstrate that MG-SLAM achieves higher precision, with an improvement from 0.2730 m to 0.0135 m in precision. Moreover, the processing time required by MG-SLAM is significantly reduced compared to other dynamic scene SLAM algorithms, which illustrates its efficacy in locating objects in dynamic scenes.展开更多

文摘Bedding parallel stepped rock slopes exist widely in nature and are used in slope engineering.They are characterized by complex topography and geological structure and are vulnerable to shattering under strong earthquakes.However,no previous studies have assessed the mechanisms underlying seismic failure in rock slopes.In this study,large-scale shaking table tests and numerical simulations were conducted to delineate the seismic failure mechanism in terms of acceleration,displacement,and earth pressure responses combined with shattering failure phenomena.The results reveal that acceleration response mutations usually occur within weak interlayers owing to their inferior performance,and these mutations may transform into potential sliding surfaces,thereby intensifying the nonlinear seismic response characteristics.Cumulative permanent displacements at the internal corners of the berms can induce quasi-rigid displacements at the external corners,leading to greater permanent displacements at the internal corners.Therefore,the internal corners are identified as the most susceptible parts of the slope.In addition,the concept of baseline offset was utilized to explain the mechanism of earth pressure responses,and the result indicates that residual earth pressures at the internal corners play a dominant role in causing deformation or shattering damage.Four evolutionary deformation phases characterize the processes of seismic responses and shattering failure of the bedding parallel stepped rock slope,i.e.the formation of tensile cracks at the internal corners of the berm,expansion of tensile cracks and bedding surface dislocation,development of vertical tensile cracks at the rear edge,and rock mass slipping leading to slope instability.Overall,this study provides a scientific basis for the seismic design of engineering slopes and offers valuable insights for further studies on preventing seismic disasters in bedding parallel stepped rock slopes.

文摘This work demonstrates experimentally the close relation between return currents from relativistic laser-driven target polarization and the quality of the relativistic laser–plasma interaction for laser-driven secondary sources,taking as an example ion acceleration by target normal sheath acceleration.The Pearson linear correlation of maximum return current amplitude and proton spectrum cutoff energy is found to be in the range from~0.70 to 0.94.kA-scale return currents rise in all interaction schemes where targets of any kind are charged by escaping laser-accelerated relativistic electrons.Their precise measurement is demonstrated using an inductive scheme that allows operation at high repetition rates.Thus,return currents can be used as a metrological online tool for the optimization of many laser-driven secondary sources and for diagnosing their stability.In particular,in two parametric studies of laser-driven ion acceleration,we carry out a noninvasive online measurement of return currents in a tape target system irradiated by the 1 PW VEGA-3 laser at Centro de Láseres Pulsados:first the size of the irradiated area is varied at best compression of the laser pulse;second,the pulse duration is varied by means of induced group delay dispersion at best focus.This work paves the way to the development of feedback systems that operate at the high repetition rates of PW-class lasers.

文摘The level of ground shaking,as determined by the peak ground acceleration(PGA),can be used to analyze seismic hazard at a certain location and is crucial for constructing earthquake-resistant structures.Predicting the PGA immediately after an earthquake occurs allows for the issuing of a warning by an earthquake early warning system.In this study,we propose a deep learning model,ConvMixer,to predict the PGA recorded by weak-motion velocity seismometers in Japan.We use 5-s threecomponent seismograms,from 2 s before until 3 s after the P-wave arrival time of the earthquake.Our dataset comprised more than 50,000 single-station waveforms recorded by 10 seismic stations in the K-NET,Kiki-NET,and Hi-Net networks between 2004 and 2023.The proposed ConvMixer is a patch-based model that extracts global features from input seismic data and predicts the PGA of an earthquake by combining depth and pointwise convolutions.The proposed ConvMixer network had a mean absolute error of 2.143 when applied to the test set and outperformed benchmark deep learning models.In addition,the proposed ConvMixer demonstrated the ability to predict the PGA at the corresponding station site based on 1-second waveforms obtained immediately after the arrival time of the P-wave.

文摘Laser-driven ion acceleration,as produced by interaction of a high-intensity laser with a target,is a growing field of interest.One of the current challenges is to enhance the acceleration process,i.e.,to increase the produced ion energy and the ion number and to shape the energy distribution for future applications.In this paper,we investigate the effect of helical coil(HC)targets on the laser-matter interaction process using a 150 TW laser.We demonstrate that HC targets significantly enhance proton acceleration,improving energy bunching and beam focusing and increasing the cutoff energy.For the first time,we extend this analysis to carbon ions,revealing a marked reduction in the number of low-energy carbon ions and the potential for energy bunching and post-acceleration through an optimized HC design.Simulations using the particle-in-cell code SOPHIE confirm the experimental results,providing insights into the current propagation and ion synchronization mechanisms in HCs.Our findings suggest that HC targets can be optimized for multispecies ion acceleration.

文摘We put forward a new design of a compact beam transport system for intense laser-driven proton therapy,where instead of using conventional pulsed solenoids,our design relies on a helical coil irradiated by a nanosecond laser pulse to generate strong magnetic fields for focusing protons.A pair of dipole magnets and apertures are employed to further filter protons with large divergences and low energies.Our numerical studies combine particle-in-cell simulations for laser-plasma interaction to generate high-energy monoenergetic proton beams,finite element analysis for evaluating the magnetic field distribution inside the coil,and MonteCarlo simulations for beam transport and energy deposition.Our results show that with this design,a spread-out Bragg peak in a range of several centimeters to a deep-seated tumor with a dose of approximately 16.5 cGy and fluctuation around 2% can be achieved.The instantaneous dose rate reaches up to 10^(9)Gy/s,holding the potential for future FLASH radiotherapy research.

文摘Model calculations and laboratory experiments were conducted to investigate the influence of surface tension of the molten steel on the agglomeration trend of Al_(2)O_(3) inclusions.The agglomeration trends of inclusions were compared using the calculated attractiveness.When the S content in the steel increased from 2.7×10^(-6) to 789×10^(-6),the surface tension of the molten steel decreased from 1.91 to 1.39 N/m,while the attractive force between inclusions increased from 5×10^(-18) to 5×10^(-16) N,and the critical collision distance of Al_(2)O_(3) inclusions gradually increased from 30 to 70μm.A model of the relationship between the capillary force of inclusions and S content in steel was established.It was found that the capillary force calculated by the model showed the same trend as the attractive force obtained from experiments,and an increase in the S content promoted the attraction between inclusions.

文摘Background Higher accelerometer-assessed volume and intensity of physical activity(PA)have been associated with a longer life expectancy but can be difficult to translate into recommended doses of PA.We aimed to:(a)improve interpretability by producing UK Biobank age-referenced centiles for PA volume and intensity;(b)inform public-health messaging by examining how adding recommended quantities of moderate and vigorous PA affect PA volume and intensity.Methods 92,480 UK Biobank participants aged 43-80 years with wrist-worn accelerometer data were included.Average acceleration and intensity gradient were derived as proxies for PA volume and intensity.We generated sex-specific centile curves using Generalized Additive Models for Location Scale and Shape(GAMLSS)and modeled the effect of adding moderate(walking)or vigorous(running)activity on the combined change in the volume and intensity centiles(change in PA profile).Results In men,volume was lower as age increased while intensity was lower after age 55;in women,both volume and intensity were lower as age increased.Adding 150 min of moderate PA weekly(5×30 min walking)increased the PA profile by 4 percentage points.Defining moderate PA as brisk walking approximately doubled the increase(9 percentage points)while 75 min of vigorous PA weekly(5×15 min running)trebled the increase(13 percentage points).Conclusion These UK Biobank reference centiles provide a benchmark for interpretation of accelerometer data.Application of our translational methods demonstrate that meeting PA guidelines through shorter duration vigorous activity is more beneficial to the PA profile(volume and intensity)than longer duration moderate activity.

文摘This study focused on the hydraulic conductivity of sand in centrifuge modeling.A self-designed temperature-controlled falling-head permeameter apparatus was used,and a series of falling-head seepage tests were performed on sand samples with various porosities at different temperatures and centrifugal accelerations.The objectives were to qualitatively and quantitatively investigate the effects of temperature,porosity,and centrifugal acceleration on the hydraulic conductivity of sand and to study the applicability of the Kozeny-Carman equation for the centrifugal environment.Test results showed that in a similar temperature range and under the same porosity,the hydraulic conductivity of the sand is linearly correlated with centrifugal acceleration.When subjected to the same centrifugal acceleration and in a similar temperature range,the hydraulic conductivity of the sand exhibits an almost linear increase in relation to its porosity function(s^(3)/(1−s)^(2));the functional relationships between the hydraulic conductivity of the sand and temperature,centrifugal acceleration level,and porosity were established using two pathways.When the centrifugal acceleration is less than 50g,the Kozeny-Carman equation is effectively accurate in predicting the hydraulic conductivity of sand;however,when the centrifugal acceleration exceeds 50g,it is important to consider a significant error.
文摘Modern compression and acceleration methods for exploring efficient deep neural networks render real-world applications more feasible.Existing approaches uniformly apply the same procedure to every input image,overlooking instancewise complexity variations.Moreover,owing to pruning or decomposition techniques,the upper bound of network representation capabilities might be permanently diminished.In this work,an input-dependent multiscale dynamic inference method(MSDI)is developed to strike a better balance between model performance and inference acceleration.Specifically,we modify the main body of a convolutional network to obtain a series of parameter-sharing subnetworks with varying levels of complexity.A side branch structure is then introduced to assign an input instance to a suitable subnetwork as its inference route,and we expect to accelerate the inference by assigning the easy input to the subnetwork with low capacity.We further propose multiscale distillation training to optimize the training of the modified subnetworks.Additionally,we compare the entropy-based and learning-based grading approaches,aiming to obtain a more suitable route assignment method.Experiments show that MSDI can accelerate most existing convolutional models,achieving up to 74.7%computation savings across diverse datasets.

文摘Alcohol oxidation is a widely used green chemical reaction.The reaction process produces flammable and explosive hydrogen,so the design of the reactor must meet stringent safety requirements.Based on the limited experimental data,utilizing the traditional numerical method of computational fluid dynamics(CFD)to simulate the gas-liquid two-phase flow reactor can mitigate the risk of danger under varying working conditions.However,the calculation process is highly time-consuming.Therefore,by integrating process simulation,computational fluid dynamics,and deep learning technologies,an intelligent hybrid chemical model based on machine learning was proposed to expedite CFD calculations,enhance the prediction of flow fields,conversion rates,and concentrations inside the reactor,and offer insights for designing and optimizing the reactor for the alcohol oxidation system.The results show that the hybrid model based on the long and short-term memory neural network achieves 99.8%accuracy in conversion rate prediction and 99.9%accuracy in product concentration prediction.Through validation,the hybrid model is accelerated by about 360 times compared with instrumental analysis in conversion rate prediction and about 45 times compared with CFD calculation in concentration distribution prediction.This hybrid model can quickly predict the conversion rate and product concentration distribution in the gas-liquid two-phase flow reactor and provide a model reference for fast prediction and accurate control in the actual chemical production process.

文摘This study investigates the paradoxical detonation behavior of TKX-50,a nitrogen-rich energetic material,exhibiting higher detonation velocities but lower metal acceleration ability compared to HMX.Through experimental measurements and theoretical calculations,we propose a novel three-factor competition mechanism to explain this phenomenon.TKX-50-based PBX formulations achieved detonation velocities up to 9100 m/s,surpassing HMX-based counterparts.However,cylinder expansion tests revealed a 15%reduction in metal acceleration ability.Thermochemical measurements showed lower detonation heat for TKX-50(4900 J/g)versus HMX(5645 J/g).Our mechanism involves:(1)compositional effects prevailing at high pressures;(2)Energy release becoming essential as pressure drops;(3)Pressure-dependent product composition evolution functioning at low pressure.VLW code calculations unveiled a"crossover"in Hugoniot curves,lending support to this mechanism.This study furnishes a new framework for comprehending the performance of nitrogen-rich energetic materials,with significant implications for the design and optimization of future high-energy density materials.

文摘To efficiently search out the optimal cam contour,a software integrated optimization method considering cam mechanism’s kinematic and dynamic characteristics was presented,and its effectiveness was demonstrated by a case study of the cam contour optimization for an offset press open-close gripper mechanism.The acceleration curve and the residual vibration model of the follower were separately studied.A symmetric harmonic trapezoidal curve was designed to control the follower’s acceleration,and single-DOF lumped parameter torsional vibration model was proposed to describe the follower’s residual vibration.Accordingly,corresponding motion curve design software and Simulink vibration model of the follower were developed respectively,and they were integrated into an automatic optimization platform with iSIGHT.The multi-objective optimization with objectives of minimizing both the acceleration and the residual vibration of the follower was completed within the platform by using NSGA-II algorithm.An appropriate point with lower acceleration and residual vibration was chosen from Pareto front as an optimal solution of the follower’s motion curve.Based on the follower’s new motion curve,the actual cam contour was generated by inverse kinematic simulation in COSMOSMotion.The offset press that installed our new designed cam exhibited a lower vibration than the previous machine,and the maximum measured acceleration of the offset press at a printing speed of 15000 r/h is reduced by 7.7%.

文摘Both acceleration and pseudo-acceleration response spectra play important roles in structural seismic design.However,only one of them is generally provided in most seismic codes.Therefore,many studies have attempted to develop conversion models between the acceleration response spectrum(SA)and the pseudo-acceleration response spectrum(PSA).Our previous studies found that the relationship between SA and PSA is affected by magnitude,distance,and site class.Subsequently,we developed an SA/PSA model incorporating these effects.However,this model is suitable for cases with small and moderate magnitudes and its accuracy is not good enough for cases with large magnitudes.This paper aims to develop an efficient SA/PSA model by considering influences of magnitude,distance,and site class,which can be applied to cases not only with small or moderate magnitudes but also with large ones.For this purpose,regression analyses were conducted using 16,660 horizontal seismic records with a wider range of magnitude.The magnitude of these seismic records varies from 4 to 9 and the distances vary from 10 to 200 km.These ground motions were recorded at 338 stations covering four site classes.By comparing them with existing models,it was found that the proposed model shows better accuracy for cases with any magnitudes,distances,and site classes considered in this study.
