The purpose of this study was to determine how flow and sediment regimes, and meander characteristics affect the morphological adjustment of bends in the Lower Jingjiang Reach(LJR) before and after the Three Gorges Project(TGP). Based on detailed field measurements and hydrological and topographic datasets from 1991 to 2016, banks and point bars morphodynamics of 12continuous bends in the LJR were comprehensively analyzed. Point bars in the LJR mainly experienced a net deposition before the TGP operation, but substantially deteriorated with a net erosion rate of 4.6 million m^(3) yr^(-1) in the post-TGP periods(2003–2016), and erosion on heads and upstream margins of point bars was a general adjustment pattern in the 12 bends.The most significant morphological changes of point bars and banks occurred in 2006–2011,indicating a delayed response of the channel evolution of the LJR to damming. Detailed observations suggested that the medium discharges(16,000–18,000 m^(3) s^(-1)) were the most contributive discharges in shaping the morphology of point bars and banks in the LJR after damming. In addition, we revealed the importance of sediment supply on meander deformation of the LJR, driven by sediment exchange over point bars, and more upstream planform deformation tended to occur in bends with high sinuosity(>2.0) in the LJR after damming.The relationship between meander deformation and sinuosity was manifested through the geometric adjustment range of point bars. The morphological adjustments of point bars in the highly curved or compound bends of the LJR were more conducive to cause flow deflections,leading to form concave-bank bars after the TGP operation.展开更多

The point bar, being about 4 km in length and several tensto more than 100 meters in width, is located on the south side of the Shengli Bridge in KenliCounty, Dongying, Shandong. It is a typical fine-grained point bar with silt, which is predominant,some clay and minor plant debris and clay boulders. The Shengli I Point bar has complicated 3-Dstructures. Firstly, in a plane view, it comprises mainly eight sedimentary units, bar edge, baredge, bar platform, bar plain, bar channel, bar gully, bar pond and bar bay, developing side by sideand superimposed one by one m a complex way. Secondly, its vertical structures are very complex dueto the partial superimposition of the 8 sedimentary units. Besides hydatogenesis, very intensivewind erosion, eolian, ice and meltwater actions are also visible on the Shengli I point bar. Thecomplex form is made even more complicated because of the above co-actions.展开更多

文摘In 2004 and 2014,two monographs on hypobaric storage(LP)were published by Stanley P.Burg.Based on his theoretical framework and technological advancements,as well as the research and development of equipment conducted under his guidance,alongside customer practices and reflections on various scientific literature both domestically and internationally,it is posited that,as articulated in the monograph,misconceptions regarding his theory and technology in Western scientific literature prior to 1985 continue to persist.This ongoing dissemination of misunderstandings has resulted in a near stagnation of research and has adversely impacted the Chinese academic community as well.Consequently,it is essential to delineate the characteristics and main points of its theory and technology,with the aim of offering guidance to individuals seeking to comprehend its foundational purpose.LP technology is a dynamic physical technology that continuously and uninterruptedly extracts air from a closed container and simultaneously introduces fresh,low-pressure moist air from the external environment,while maintaining specific levels of humidity and/or temperature within the container and upholding a predetermined pressure value.Preservation technology is the collective term for the set of various technical parameters associated with preservation,including pressure,relative humidity,and other relevant factors,to which LP equipment is specifically designed.The theory of LP is characterized by the enhanced diffusion of gases and vapors that enter and exit the commodity in a dynamic manner under low pressure conditions.The theoretical points involve equipment performance,low pressure,the impact of trace concentrations of gases such as O_(2),CO_(2) and C_(2)H_(4) that naturally occur at low pressure,diffusive mass transfer,heat transfer,and impacts on the activity of enzymes associated with maturation and senescence.The technology is characterized by dynamic low pressure,and the range of commodities preserved is comparable to that of refrigeration.However,certain commodities exiting the hypobaric environment possess subsequent preservation advantages that are not available through refrigeration.The main points of the technology encompass an extended sotrage life,a postponement of quality degradation,minimized water loss,the suppression of pathogen growth,and the killing of both internal and external insects of the commodity under dynamic low pressure conditions.The core advantage of LP technology lies in its ability to significantly reduce water loss,inhibit respiration and C_(2)H_(4) action,and pathogen growth,killing insects and modulate the activity of enzymes associated with maturation and senescence in post-harvest fresh horticultural products.Consequently,this technology plays a crucial role in prolonging the post-harvest lifespan of these commodities and mitigating quality degradation.Over the past decade,researchers in China have developed a hypobaric short period treatment technology,grounded in LP theory and technical practice,which is commonly referred to as hypobaric treatment.This method has garnered significant attention,leading to an increase in both domestic and international research.A growing body of literature categorizes LP as hypobaric treatment,while some studies also consider vacuum packaging and modified atmosphere packaging(MAP)as LP or hypobaric treatment.Misunderstandings are exacerbated by confusion surrounding nomenclature,which,in conjunction with pre-existing misconceptions,represents a significant barrier to both the research and practical application of the technology.The successful commercial implementation of a vacuum cold fresh chain,centered on LP or hypobaric treatment technology,may be the sole solution to the prevailing misunderstandings associated with LP.

文摘In order to advance the understanding of the impact dynamics of granular flow in complex geological settings,this paper studied the impact dynamics of granular flow on rigid barriers with a number of Material Point Method(MPM)numerical tests.The impact behavior of granular flow on a rigid barrier was characterized by the initial dynamic impact stage,dynamic surge impact stage,compression impact stage and static stage of granular flow,where the impact force of granular flow was comprised of the dynamic and static forces of granular flow.The impact behavior of granular flow on a rigid barrier was characterized by the states of the fast or slow impact behavior of granular flow.The angle of slope and aspect ratio of granular soil greatly affected the impact behavior of granular flow on a column rigid barrier,where a power model was proposed to quantify the residual(Fnr)-over-maximum(Fnmax)normal impact force ratio of granular flow Fnr⁄Fnmax incorporating the effects of the angle of slope and aspect ratio of granular soil.With the increase of the column rigid barrier up to the semi-infinite column rigid barrier,the impact dynamics of granular flow gradually increased up to a maximum by progressively transforming the overflow into the dynamic surge impact of the incoming flow on the rigid barrier to capture more granular soil of granular flow against the rigid barrier.Presence of water in granular flow,i.e.,a mixture of solid and liquid in granular flow,yielded a dynamic coupling contribution of the solid and liquid,being accompanied by the whole dynamic process of granular flow,on the impact behavior of granular flow on a rigid barrier,where the liquid-phase material of granular flow,i.e.,the water,was predominant to contribute on the normal impact force of granular flow in comparison with the solid-phase material of granular flow.In addition,other factors,e.g.,the shape of rigid barrier(i.e.,the column barrier,arch barrier and circle barrier),and the gravity(i.e.,in the gravitational environment of the Moon,Earth and Mars),greatly affected the impact behavior of granular flow on a rigid barrier as well.

文摘Perceptual quality assessment for point cloud is critical for immersive metaverse experience and is a challenging task.Firstly,because point cloud is formed by unstructured 3D points that makes the topology more complex.Secondly,the quality impairment generally involves both geometric attributes and color properties,where the measurement of the geometric distortion becomes more complex.We propose a perceptual point cloud quality assessment model that follows the perceptual features of Human Visual System(HVS)and the intrinsic characteristics of the point cloud.The point cloud is first pre-processed to extract the geometric skeleton keypoints with graph filtering-based re-sampling,and local neighboring regions around the geometric skeleton keypoints are constructed by K-Nearest Neighbors(KNN)clustering.For geometric distortion,the Point Feature Histogram(PFH)is extracted as the feature descriptor,and the Earth Mover’s Distance(EMD)between the PFHs of the corresponding local neighboring regions in the reference and the distorted point clouds is calculated as the geometric quality measurement.For color distortion,the statistical moments between the corresponding local neighboring regions are computed as the color quality measurement.Finally,the global perceptual quality assessment model is obtained as the linear weighting aggregation of the geometric and color quality measurement.The experimental results on extensive datasets show that the proposed method achieves the leading performance as compared to the state-of-the-art methods with less computing time.Meanwhile,the experimental results also demonstrate the robustness of the proposed method across various distortion types.The source codes are available at https://github.com/llsurreal919/Point Cloud Quality Assessment.
文摘With the continuous advancement of the internationalization of higher education in China,the Grade Point Average(GPA)has become a primary indicator for evaluating academic performance in universities,playing a positive role in educational management.However,as it is closely tied to students’immediate interests,such as awards,exemptions from entrance exams for postgraduate recommendations,and domestic or international further education,certain new issues have emerged in its practical application.These problems have hindered the effective functioning of the GPA system,attracting widespread attention.This paper examines the origin,connotation,and theoretical assumptions of the GPA system,discusses its positive functions and existing challenges,and proposes recommendations for further improving academic evaluation.

文摘The success of robot-assisted pelvic fracture reduction surgery heavily relies on the accuracy of 3D/3D feature-based registration.This process involves extracting anatomical feature points from pre-operative 3D images which can be challenging because of the complex and variable structure of the pelvis.PointMLP_RegNet,a modified PointMLP,was introduced to address this issue.It retains the feature extraction module of PointMLP but replaces the classification layer with a regression layer to predict the coordinates of feature points instead of conducting regular classification.A flowchart for an automatic feature points extraction method was presented,and a series of experiments was conducted on a clinical pelvic dataset to confirm the accuracy and effectiveness of the method.PointMLP_RegNet extracted feature points more accurately,with 8 out of 10 points showing less than 4 mm errors and the remaining two less than 5 mm.Compared to PointNettt and PointNet,it exhibited higher accuracy,robustness and space efficiency.The proposed method will improve the accuracy of anatomical feature points extraction,enhance intra-operative registration precision and facilitate the widespread clinical application of robot-assisted pelvic fracture reduction.

文摘Airborne LiDAR(Light Detection and Ranging)is an evolving high-tech active remote sensing technology that has the capability to acquire large-area topographic data and can quickly generate DEM(Digital Elevation Model)products.Combined with image data,this technology can further enrich and extract spatial geographic information.However,practically,due to the limited operating range of airborne LiDAR and the large area of task,it would be necessary to perform registration and stitching process on point clouds of adjacent flight strips.By eliminating grow errors,the systematic errors in the data need to be effectively reduced.Thus,this paper conducts research on point cloud registration methods in urban building areas,aiming to improve the accuracy and processing efficiency of airborne LiDAR data.Meanwhile,an improved post-ICP(Iterative Closest Point)point cloud registration method was proposed in this study to determine the accurate registration and efficient stitching of point clouds,which capable to provide a potential technical support for applicants in related field.

文摘The conventional Kibble–Zurek mechanism,describing driven dynamics across critical points based on the adiabatic-impulse scenario(AIS),has attracted broad attention.However,the driven dynamics at the tricritical point with two independent relevant directions have not been adequately studied.Here,we employ the time-dependent variational principle to study the driven critical dynamics at a one-dimensional supersymmetric Ising tricritical point.For the relevant direction along the Ising critical line,the AIS apparently breaks down.Nevertheless,we find that the critical dynamics can still be described by finite-time scaling in which the driving rate has a dimension of r_(μ)=z+1/v_(μ)with z and v_(μ)being the dynamic exponent and correlation length exponent in this direction,respectively.For driven dynamics along another direction,the driving rate has a dimension of r_(p)=z+1/v_(p)with v_(p)being another correlation length exponent.Our work brings a new fundamental perspective into nonequilibrium critical dynamics near the tricritical point,which could be realized in programmable quantum processors in Rydberg atomic systems.
