Accurate and efficient model to perform non-destructive quality estimation is an essential part of this assessment. This paper presents a structured and comprehensive approach developed to design an effective artificial neural network based model for weld bead geometry prediction and control in laser welding of galvanized steel in butt joint configurations. The proposed approach examines laser welding parameters and conditions known to have an influence on geometric characteristics of the welds and builds a weld quality prediction model step by step. The modelling procedure begins by examining, through structured experimental investigations and exhaustive 3D modelling and simulation efforts, the direct and the interaction effects of laser welding parameters such as laser power, welding speed, fibre diameter and gap, on the weld bead geometry (i.e. depth of penetration and bead width). Using these results and various statistical tools, various neural network based prediction models are developed and evaluated. The results demonstrate that the proposed approach can effectively lead to a consistent model able to accurately and reliably provide an appropriate prediction of weld bead geometry under variable welding conditions.展开更多

The proposed modelling approach is based on metallurgical transformations using temperature dependent material properties and the enthalpy method. Conduction and keyhole modes welding are investigated using surface and volumetric heat sources, respectively. Transition between the heat sources is carried out according to the power density and interaction time. Simulations are carried out using 3D finite element model on commercial software. The simulation results of the weld shape and dimensions are validated using a structured experimental investigation based on Taguchi method. Experimental validation conducted on a 3 kW Nd: YAG laser source reveals that the modelling approach can provide not only a consistent and accurate prediction of the weld characteristics under variable welding parameters and conditions but also a comprehensive and quantitative analysis of process parameters effects. The results show great concordance between predicted and measured values for the weld joint shape and dimensions.展开更多

A three-dimensional Prandtl mixing length tidal model has been developed to simulate tidal flows and water quality. The eddy viscosities and diffusivities are computed from the Prandtl mixing length model. In order to model the water quality of an estuary or coastal area many interdependent processes need to be simulated. These may be conveniently separated into three main groups: transport and mixing processes, biochemical interaction of water quality variables and the utilization and re-cycling of nutrients by living matter. The model simulates full oxygen and nutrient balance, primary productivity and the transport, reaction mechanism and fate of pollutants over tidal time-scales. The model is applied to numerical simulation of tidal flows and water quality in Dalian Bay. The model has been calibrated against a limited data set of historical water quality observations and in general demonstrates excellent agreement with all available data.展开更多

The proppant will embed into the formation rock, especially in soft rock, owing to the interaction between proppant and fracture surface after fracture closure. Proppant embedment would reduce the fracture width and then lower the fracture conductivity. According to dimensional analysis, the rock is assumed to be an elastic material. Using the theory of elasticity to describe the stage of elastic deformation and analysis of the corresponding simplified embedding process, the study establish the static computation model of the two-dimensional infinite half plane and three-dimensional infinite half space model of the proppant embedment. According to laboratory results, the calculation model was modified, got an effective correction factor and analyzed the causes of errors, then discussed the factors which have impact on proppant embedment. The result calculated by the model in this paper can be reference of prop- pant optimization in on-site fracturing for a certainty degree.展开更多

Then, starting from the mass loss corresponding to this energy, we determine the number of bonds in this nucleus. The mass defect value for a link is used to determine a specific length at that link. Fixing a precise distance between nucleons makes it possible to determine a geometry of the nucleus and its dimensions. It makes it possible to understand when this bond is stronger than the electrostatic force and allows deducing a shell model built in a precise order. The calculation on the mass defect will also make it possible to determine that one or more nucleons concerned by the radioactivity will be bound by a single bond to the rest of the nucleus or, on the contrary, bound by several bonds which induce short 1/2 lives or, on the contrary, very long. The analysis of the bonds on H, He and C make it possible to write formulae which are then applied to the nuclei to find the radioactive 1/2 lives. To find by equations the radioactive 1/2 lives does not call into question the standard model since it concerns only the defect of mass of the nuclei with energies that are not used to find the main particles of the standard model. This model, which favours a geometric approach to the detriment of a mathematical approach based on differential equations, can lead to theoretical questions about the possibility of interpreting the structure of the nucleus in a more undulatory way. It is possible to explain radioactivity in a more deterministic way.展开更多

文摘In order to know about the essence of service employees' innovation behavior, the service employees' innovation behavior scale based on their unique characteristics is designed. Data were collected from high-star hospitalities. Through the issuance and the collection of questionnaires, the scale is verified to have good reliability and validity by SPSS software analysis. Meanwhile,the structural equation model( SEM) is suited for testing structural dimensions of service employees' innovation behavior. The results showed that service employees' innovation behavior could be decomposed into a four-dimensional structure,namely innovation orientation, ideas generation, innovation implementation and innovation practice. In addition,there are significant differences in service employees' innovation behavior about subjects' gender,position,education background and years of working.

文摘Fire detection has held stringent importance in computer vision for over half a century.The development of early fire detection strategies is pivotal to the realization of safe and smart cities,inhabitable in the future.However,the development of optimal fire and smoke detection models is hindered by limitations like publicly available datasets,lack of diversity,and class imbalance.In this work,we explore the possible ways forward to overcome these challenges posed by available datasets.We study the impact of a class-balanced dataset to improve the fire detection capability of state-of-the-art(SOTA)vision-based models and propose the use of generative models for data augmentation,as a future work direction.First,a comparative analysis of two prominent object detection architectures,You Only Look Once version 7(YOLOv7)and YOLOv8 has been carried out using a balanced dataset,where both models have been evaluated across various evaluation metrics including precision,recall,and mean Average Precision(mAP).The results are compared to other recent fire detection models,highlighting the superior performance and efficiency of the proposed YOLOv8 architecture as trained on our balanced dataset.Next,a fractal dimension analysis gives a deeper insight into the repetition of patterns in fire,and the effectiveness of the results has been demonstrated by a windowing-based inference approach.The proposed Slicing-Aided Hyper Inference(SAHI)improves the fire and smoke detection capability of YOLOv8 for real-life applications with a significantly improved mAP performance over a strict confidence threshold.YOLOv8 with SAHI inference gives a mAP:50-95 improvement of more than 25%compared to the base YOLOv8 model.The study also provides insights into future work direction by exploring the potential of generative models like deep convolutional generative adversarial network(DCGAN)and diffusion models like stable diffusion,for data augmentation.

文摘Hydraulic fracturing is designed to form a high-conductivity fracture. The proppant will embed into the formation rock, especially in soft rock, owing to the interaction between proppant and fracture surface after fracture closure. Proppant embedment would reduce the fracture width and then lower the fracture conductivity. According to dimensional analysis, the rock is assumed to be an elastic material. Using the theory of elasticity to describe the stage of elastic deformation and analysis of the corresponding simplified embedding process, the study establish the static computation model of the two-dimensional infinite half plane and three-dimensional infinite half space model of the proppant embedment. According to laboratory results, the calculation model was modified, got an effective correction factor and analyzed the causes of errors, then discussed the factors which have impact on proppant embedment. The result calculated by the model in this paper can be reference of prop- pant optimization in on-site fracturing for a certainty degree.
文摘Considering only the wave aspect, we determine the energy of a bond between 2 nucleons;this quantified energy is associated with a standing wave. Then, starting from the mass loss corresponding to this energy, we determine the number of bonds in this nucleus. The mass defect value for a link is used to determine a specific length at that link. Fixing a precise distance between nucleons makes it possible to determine a geometry of the nucleus and its dimensions. It makes it possible to understand when this bond is stronger than the electrostatic force and allows deducing a shell model built in a precise order. The calculation on the mass defect will also make it possible to determine that one or more nucleons concerned by the radioactivity will be bound by a single bond to the rest of the nucleus or, on the contrary, bound by several bonds which induce short 1/2 lives or, on the contrary, very long. The analysis of the bonds on H, He and C make it possible to write formulae which are then applied to the nuclei to find the radioactive 1/2 lives. To find by equations the radioactive 1/2 lives does not call into question the standard model since it concerns only the defect of mass of the nuclei with energies that are not used to find the main particles of the standard model. This model, which favours a geometric approach to the detriment of a mathematical approach based on differential equations, can lead to theoretical questions about the possibility of interpreting the structure of the nucleus in a more undulatory way. It is possible to explain radioactivity in a more deterministic way.
文摘We develop a cosmological model in a physical background scenario of four time and four space dimensions ((4+4)-dimensions or (4+4)-universe). We show that in this framework the (1+3)-universe is deeply connected with the (3+1)-universe. We argue that this means that in the (4+4)-universe there exists a duality relation between the (1+3)-universe and the (3+1)-universe.
