The finite element discrete variable representation (FE-DVR) was first proposed by Rescigno and Mc-Curdy [Phys. Rev. A 62, 032706 (2000)] for solving quantum-mechanical scattering problems. In this work, an FE-DVR method in a mapped coordinate was proposed to improve the efficiency of the original FE-DVR method. For numerical demonstration, the proposed approach is applied for solving the electronic eigenfunctions and eigenvalues of the hydrogen atom and vibrational states of the electronic state 3E+ of the Cs2 molecule which has long-range interaction potential. The numerical results indicate that the numerical efficiency of the original FE-DVR has been improved much using our proposed mapped coordinate scheme.展开更多

Photodissociation fragment exciation spectrum and images of photofragment CO+ have been measured to obtain reaction dynamics parameters such as the available energy and the average translational energy. Combining with the potential energy functions of CO2^+, the dissociation mechanism of CO2^+ is discussed. The conformational variation of CO2^+ from linear to bent on the photodissociation dynamics of CO2^+ is verified.展开更多

Hence, this study aims to investigate the LUC changes in the Geba catchment(5142 km2), Northern Ethiopia, over 80 years(1935–2014). Aerial photographs(APs) of the 1930 s and Google Earth(GE) images(2014) were used. The point-count technique was utilized by overlaying a grid on APs and GE images. The occurrence of cropland, forest, grassland, shrubland, bare land, built-up areas and water body was counted to compute their fractions. A multivariate adaptive regression spline was applied to identify the explanatory factors of LUC and to create fractional maps of LUC. The results indicate significant changes of most types, except for forest and cropland. In the 1930 s, shrubland(48%) was dominant, followed by cropland(39%). The fraction of cropland in 2014(42%) remained approximately the same as in the 1930 s, while shrubland significantly dropped to 37%. Forests shrank further from a meagre 6.3% in the 1930 s to 2.3% in 2014. High overall accuracies(93% and 83%) and strong Kappa coefficients(89% and 72%) for point counts and fractional maps respectively indicate the validity of the techniques used for LUC mapping.展开更多

The characterization was that the biogenesis and development of the chloroplasts was mainly interfered in bundle sheath cells rather than in mesophyll cells. For mapping the bsd-pg, an F2 population was derived from a cross between the mutant bsd-pg and an inbred line Xianzao 17. Using specific locus amplified fragment sequencing(SLAF-Seq) technology, a total of 5 783 polymorphic SLAFs were analysed with 1 771 homozygous alleles between maternal and paternal parents. There were 49 SLAFs, which had a ratio of paternal to maternal alleles of 2:1 in bulked normal lines, and three trait-related candidate regions were obtained on chromosome 1 with a size of 3.945 Mb. For the fine mapping, new simple sequence repeats(SSRs) markers were designed by utilizing information of the B73 genome and the candidate regions were localized a size of 850 934 bp on chromosome 1 between umc1603 and umc1395, including 35 candidate genes. These results provide a foundation for the cloning of bsd-pg by map-based strategy, which is essential for revealing the functional differentiation and coordination of the two cell types, and helps to elucidate a comprehensive understanding of the C4 photosynthesis pathway and related processes in maize leaves.展开更多

The singularity around the crack tip prevents the DDM from optimally converging when the basis functions are polynomials of first order or higher. To overcome this issue,enlightened by the mapped finite element method(FEM) proposed in Ref. [13], we present an optimally convergent mapped DDM in this work, called the mapped DDM(MDDM). It is essentially based on approximating a much smoother function obtained by reformulating the problem with an appropriate auxiliary map. Two numerical examples of crack problems are presented in comparison with the conventional DDM. The results show that the proposed method improves the accuracy of the DDM; moreover, it yields an optimal convergence rate for quadratic interpolating polynomials.展开更多

The characteristics of CUDA's mapped memory are used here to create a dynamic polling service model in the host which can satisfy most I/O functions such as read/write file and "printf". The technique to implement these I/O functions has some influence on the performance of the original applications. These functions quickly respond to the users' I/O requirements with the "printf" performance better than CUDA's. An easy and effective real-time method is given for users to debug their programs using the I/O functions. These functions improve productivity of converting legacy C/C++ codes to CUDA and broaden CUDA's functions.展开更多

In this study, the immune response and protection efficacy of Nc IMP1 were evaluated. The coding sequence of Nc IMP1 was inserted into the eukaryotic expression vector pc DNA3.1(+), resulting in the recombination plasmid pc DNAIMP1, which was used for the intramuscular immunization of BALB/c mice. After immunization, the immune response was evaluated using a lymphoproliferative assay and cytokine and antibody measurements. Quantification of the cerebral parasite burden of mice challenged with 2106 N. caninum was performed 14 days after the last immunization. The results showed that the mice immunized with pc DNA-IMP1 developed a high level of specific antibody responses against recombinant Nc IMP1,with a mixed Ig G1/Ig G2 a response and a predominance of Ig G2 a production. The cellular immune response was associated with the production of IFN-γ, IL-2, IL-4 and IL-10 cytokines. The experiment was terminated 30 days p.i.,and the cerebral parasite burden in each mouse was assessed by quantitative PCR. The parasite burden was significantly reduced in the pc DNA-IMP1-vaccinated mice. These data suggest that IMP1 is a promising vaccine candidate against neosporosis.展开更多

文摘针对飞机复合材料缺陷红外图像分辨率较低、检测精度不高等导致缺陷特征难以准确表征的问题,本文提出了一种YOLOv7-FSE(YOLOv7 FReLU-SiLU-EIOU)的改进检测算法。该算法首先将YOLOv7中SiLU激活函数替换为漏斗激活函数FReLU,提高对缺陷特征的空间敏感性。然后使用SPD-Conv(Space to depth Convolution)卷积改进特征提取方式,提升算法对低分辨率红外图像缺陷复杂特征的表征能力。最后将EIOU损失函数替代CIOU损失函数,通过优化边界框识别权重使其聚焦于生成更高质量锚框提升整体检测性能。对比结果表明,本算法相较于其他检测方法如Faster-RCNN、YOLOv3的mAP精度值分别提高10.8%、10.1%。与YOLOv7算法相比,YOLOv7-FSE算法的P精确度由88.3%提高到94.9%,mAP由90.1%提高到97.7%。该算法可应用在飞机表面复合材料缺陷的红外检测中,在结合搭载嵌入式设备开展快速检测方面具有潜在应用前景。
