Since angular diameter distance relies heavily on cosmological geometry,we can use these ratios to constrain cosmological models.Moreover,X-ray gas fractions of galaxy clusters can also be a cosmological probe.Because there are a dozen parameters to be fitted,we introduce a new analytic algorithm,Powell＇s UOBYQA（Unconstrained Optimization By Quadratic Approximation） ,to accelerate our calculation.Our result demonstrates that this algorithm is an effective fitting method for such a continuous multi-parameter constraint.We find an interesting fact that these two approaches are separately sensitive toΩΛandΩM.By combining them,we can get reasonable fitting values of basic cosmological parameters：ΩM=0.26 ＋0.04 -0.04,andΩΛ=0.82 ＋0.14 -0.16.展开更多

The experimental results are compared with those obtained theoretically from calculation type ab initio. The experimental investigation is carried out using the molecular electron charge density distribution based on the multipolar model of Hansen and Coppens. However the theoretical calculations are conducted by using the molecular orbital B3 LYP method and the Hartree-Fock（HF） approximation with the basis set 6-31G（d,p） implemented in the Gaussian program. In addition to the structural analysis,the thermal agitation is also analyzed in terms of rigid blocks to ensure a better precision of the results. Subsequently, the electrostatic atomic and molecular properties such as the net charges, the molecular dipolar moment to highlight the nature of charge transfer existing within the molecule studied are derived. Moreover, the obtained electrostatic potential enables the localization of the electropositive and the electronegative parts of the investigated molecule. The present work reports in detail the obtained electrostatic properties of this biologically important molecule.展开更多

The standard length of Chrysichthys auratus varies between 43.57 and 210 mm, for an average of 96.70 ± 28.63 mm;the weight varies between 2.92 and 140.83 mg, an average of 73.03 ± 21.62 mg. The condition coefficient is equal to 4.42 ± 1.52. Liza falcipinnis has a standard length which varies between 59.9 mm and 158.08 mm for an average of 88.15 ± 29.74 mm;its weight varies between 4.77 and 76.21 mg, an average of 18.61 ± 11.82 mg.

The Doppler information observed by radars reflects sea surface dynamics, to which ocean waves make important contributions. Low-incidence-angle real aperture radar(RAR)demonstrates great potential for independently observing vectorial Doppler information on the ocean surface. To systematically characterize and accurately estimate the wave-induced Doppler frequency shift(WVF) from lowincidence-angle RAR, this study conducts comprehensive influencing factor analysis and establishes sea-stateparameterized WVF models. First, a simulated WVF dataset is generated under a rotating low-incidence-angle RAR.The feature parameters of WVF are then determined by analysing contributing factors including wind waves, swells,and sea state parameters. Furthermore, two WVF models(WVF_Ku P9 with 9 inputs and WVF_Ku P4 with 4 inputs) are constructed by the Transformer encoder for different application scenarios. Both models achieve high accuracy for WVF estimation with root mean square errors(RMSE) of 1.874 Hz and 2.716 Hz, respectively. The reliability and superiority of the proposed models are validated through comparisons with the Ka DOP, which is a typical geophysical model function(GMF). The findings in this paper advance the understanding of WVF characteristics and generation mechanisms. The proposed estimation models can provide reliable estimates, offering critical references for lowincidence-angle RAR applications such as ocean surface current retrieval.展开更多

We analyzed nowcasting techniques by integrating a high-resolution numerical weather prediction model with these convective parameters. Based on the CMA-GD 1-km model and its assimilation system, we conducted repeated tests on radar reflectivity data assimilation and analyzed their impact on nowcasting accuracy. Based on these analyses, we proposed a method to improve model forecasts using the useful indicative information provided by high-frequency radar reflectivity data and convective parameters. The improved method was applied to the CMA-GD 1-km model for nowcasting tests. Evaluations from batch tests and case analysis show that the proposed method significantly reduced the model's false alarm rates and improved its nowcasting performance.展开更多

文摘A conceptual model of intermittent joints is introduced to the cyclic shear test in the laboratory to explore the effects of loading parameters on its shear behavior under cyclic shear loading.The results show that the loading parameters(initial normal stress,normal stiffness,and shear velocity)determine propagation paths of the wing and secondary cracks in rock bridges during the initial shear cycle,creating different morphologies of macroscopic step-path rupture surfaces and asperities on them.The differences in stress state and rupture surface induce different cyclic shear responses.It shows that high initial normal stress accelerates asperity degradation,raises shear resistance,and promotes compression of intermittent joints.In addition,high normal stiffness provides higher normal stress and shear resistance during the initial cycles and inhibits the dilation and compression of intermittent joints.High shear velocity results in a higher shear resistance,greater dilation,and greater compression.Finally,shear strength is most sensitive to initial normal stress,followed by shear velocity and normal stiffness.Moreover,average dilation angle is most sensitive to initial normal stress,followed by normal stiffness and shear velocity.During the shear cycles,frictional coefficient is affected by asperity degradation,backfilling of rock debris,and frictional area,exhibiting a non-monotonic behavior.

文摘Accurate measurement of helicopter rotor motion parameters(flap,lead-lag,torsion,and azimuth angles)is essential for rotor blade design,helicopter dynamics modeling,and flight safety and health monitoring.However,the existing methods face challenges in testing equipment installation,calibration,and data transmission,resulting in limited reports on real-time in-flight measurements of blade motion parameters.This paper proposes a non-contact optoelectronic method based on two-dimensional position-sensitive detectors for in-flight measurement and a ground calibration system to obtain real-time rotor motion parameters during helicopter flight.The proposed method establishes the time evolution relationship of rotor motion parameters and verifies the performance of the in-flight measurement system regarding measurement resolution and accuracy through the construction of a blade motion posture experimental platform.The proposed method has been applied to the flight measurement of a medium-sized single-rotor helicopter,and the obtained results have been compared with theoretical analysis outcomes.Furthermore,this paper examines the characteristics of blade motion parameters during flight and discusses the challenges and potential solutions for measuring rotor motion parameters during helicopter flight using the proposed method.

文摘We estimate the parameters of a Cu plasma generated by an X-pinch by comparing experimentally measured x-rays with synthetic data.A filtered absolute extreme ultraviolet diode array is used to measure time-resolved x-ray spectra with a spectral resolution of∼1 keV in the energy range of 1–10 keV.The synthetic spectra of Cu plasmas with different electron temperatures,electron densities,and fast electron fractions are calculated using the FLYCHK code.For quantitative comparison with the measured spectrum,two x-ray power ratios with three different spectral ranges are calculated.We observe three x-ray bursts in X-pinch experiments with two Cu wires conducted on the SNU X-pinch at a current rise rate of∼0.2 kA/ns.Analysis of the spectra reveals that the first burst comprises x-rays emitted by hot spots and electron beams,with characteristics similar to those observed in other X-pinches.The second and third bursts are both generated by longlived electron beams formed after the neck structure has been completely depleted.In the second burst,the formation of the electron beam is accompanied by an increase in the electron density of the background plasma.Therefore,the long-lived electron beams generate the additional strong x-ray bursts while maintaining a plasma channel in the central region of the X-pinch.Moreover,they emit many hard x-rays(HXRs),enabling the SNU X-pinch to be used as an HXR source.This study confirms that the generation of long-lived electron beams is crucial to the dynamics of X-pinches and the generation of strong HXRs.
文摘This work is devoted to the experimental determination of the electrostatic properties of the molecular 4-methyl-7-（salicylidene amino） coumarin（C17H13NC3） using high resolution x-ray diffraction data. The experimental results are compared with those obtained theoretically from calculation type ab initio. The experimental investigation is carried out using the molecular electron charge density distribution based on the multipolar model of Hansen and Coppens. However the theoretical calculations are conducted by using the molecular orbital B3 LYP method and the Hartree-Fock（HF） approximation with the basis set 6-31G（d,p） implemented in the Gaussian program. In addition to the structural analysis,the thermal agitation is also analyzed in terms of rigid blocks to ensure a better precision of the results. Subsequently, the electrostatic atomic and molecular properties such as the net charges, the molecular dipolar moment to highlight the nature of charge transfer existing within the molecule studied are derived. Moreover, the obtained electrostatic potential enables the localization of the electropositive and the electronegative parts of the investigated molecule. The present work reports in detail the obtained electrostatic properties of this biologically important molecule.
文摘In complex systems,there is a kind of parameters having only a minor impact on the outputs in most cases,but their accurate values are still critical for the operation of systems.In this paper,the authors focus on the identification of these weak influence parameters in the complex systems and propose a identification model based on the parameter recursion.As an application,three parameters of the steam generator are identified,that is,the valve opening,the valve CV value,and the reference water level,in which the valve opening and the reference water level are weak influence parameters under most operating conditions.Numerical simulation results show that,in comparison with the multi-layer perceptron(MLP),the identification error rate is decreased.Actually,the average identification error rate for the valve opening decreases by 0.96%,for the valve CV decreases by 0.002%,and for the reference water level decreases by 12%after one recursion.After two recursions,the average identification error rate for the valve opening decreases by 11.07%,for the valve CV decreases by 2.601%,and for the reference water level decreases by 95.79%.This method can help to improve the control of the steam generator.

文摘To overcome the shortage of complex equipment,large volume,and high energy consumption in space capsule manufacturing,a novel sliding pressure Joule heat fuse additive manufacturing technique with reduced volume and low energy consumption was proposed.But the unreasonable process parameters may lead to the inferior consistency of the forming quality of single-channel multilayer in Joule heat additive manufacturing process,and it is difficult to reach the condition for forming thinwalled parts.Orthogonal experiments were designed to fabricate single-channel multilayer samples with varying numbers of layers,and their forming quality was evaluated.The influence of printing current,forming speed,and contact pressure on the forming quality of the single-channel multilayer was analyzed.The optimal process parameters were obtained and the quality characterization of the experiment results was conducted.Results show that the printing current has the most significant influence on the forming quality of the single-channel multilayer.Under the optimal process parameters,the forming section is well fused and the surface is continuously smooth.The surface roughness of a single-channel 3-layer sample is 0.16μm,and the average Vickers hardness of cross section fusion zone is 317 HV,which lays a foundation for the subsequent use of Joule heat additive manufacturing technique to form thinwall parts.
文摘BACKGROUND Sagittal spinopelvic alignment(SSA)is essential for preserving a stable and effective upright posture and locomotion.Although alterations in the SSA are recognised to induce compensatory modifications in the pelvis,hips,and knees,the inverse relationship concerning knee pathology undergoing total knee arthroplasty(TKA)has been examined by a limited number of studies,yielding inconclusive results.AIM To generate evidence of the effect of TKA on the SSA from existing literature.METHODS Databases like PubMed,EMBASE,and Scopus were used to identify articles related to the“knee spine syndrome”phenomenon using a combination of subject terms and keywords such as“spinopelvic parameters”,“sagittal spinal balance”,and“total knee arthroplasty”were used with appropriate Boolean operators.Studies measuring the SSA following TKA were included,and research was conducted as per preferred reporting items for systematic review and metaanalysis guidelines.RESULTS A total of 475 participants had undergone TKA,and six studies measuring SSA were analysed.Following TKA,pelvic tilt was the only parameter that showed significant changes,while lumbar lordosis(LL),pelvic incidence,and sacral slope were non-significant,as evident from the forest plots.CONCLUSION The body's sagittal alignment is a complex balance between pelvic,spine,and lower extremity parameters.TKA,while having the potential to correct the flexion contracture,can also correct it.Still,the primary SSA for spinal pathology,i.e.,LL,may not be corrected in patients with co-existent spinal degenerative disease.
文摘The study of the morphometric parameters of the three most abundant species in the lower course of the Kouilou River (Chrysichthys auratus, Liza falcipinnis and Pellonula vorax) was carried out. The standard length of Chrysichthys auratus varies between 43.57 and 210 mm, for an average of 96.70 ± 28.63 mm;the weight varies between 2.92 and 140.83 mg, an average of 73.03 ± 21.62 mg. The condition coefficient is equal to 4.42 ± 1.52. Liza falcipinnis has a standard length which varies between 59.9 mm and 158.08 mm for an average of 88.15 ± 29.74 mm;its weight varies between 4.77 and 76.21 mg, an average of 18.61 ± 11.82 mg. The condition coefficient is equal to 2.47 ± 1.57. Pellonula vorax has a standard length which varies between 60.33 mm and 117.72 mm;for an average of 80.48 ± 17.75 mm;the weight varies between 3.61 and 25.17 mg, an average of 9.03 ± 3.61 mg.

文摘The current investigation focuses on intertwined relationships of ecology and aquaculture for the benefit of farmers involved in fish farming practices.The study evaluated glucosinolate reduction in black,brown,and white mustard meals as fish feed ingredients for Indian Major Carps.Fish were fed with 10%mustard meal-supplemented diets in three forms:Raw(R),Anti-nutritional Rich(AR),and Anti-nutritional Lowered(AL),alongside a control group using floating feed.The three-month indoor experiment(September-November 2023)was conducted in FRP tanks with triplicate treatments.Blood analysis revealed compromised health in AR-fed carps,with reduced hemoglobin levels in rohu,catla and mrigal and elevated total leukocyte counts indicating inflammation in all the three carps studied here.Liver function was impaired in AR-fed fish,shown by increased alanine transaminase levels,highest in rohu followed by mrigal and catla.Histopathological examination of AR-fed carps liver tissue revealed necrotic spots,deformed hepatocytes,and significant vacuolation.In contrast,AL-fed fish demonstrated improved health parameters through Complete Blood Count analysis,liver function tests,and histo-pathological observations,suggesting successful reduction of anti-nutritional factors in the processed mustard meals.In near future,replacement of unprocessed seed meal with processed seed meal will lead to economic gains in fish farming.

文摘The high-speed winding spindle employs a flexible support system incorporating rubber O-rings.By precisely configuring the structural parameters and the number of the O-rings,the spindle can stably surpass its critical speed points and maintain operational stability across the entire working speed range.However,the support stiffness and damping of rubber O-rings exhibit significant nonlinear frequency dependence.Conventional experimental methods for deriving equivalent stiffness and damping,based on the principle of the forced non-resonance method,require fabricating custom setups for each O-ring specification and conducting vibration tests at varying frequencies,resulting in low efficiency and high costs.This study proposes a hybrid simulation-experimental method for dynamic parameter identification.Firstly,the frequency-dependent dynamic parameters of a specific O-ring support system are experimentally obtained.Subsequently,a corresponding parametric finite element model is established to simulate and solve the equivalent elastic modulus and equivalent stiffness-damping coefficient of this O-ring support system.Ultimately,after iterative simulation,the simulated and experimental results achieve a 99.7%agreement.The parametric finite element model developed herein can directly simulate and inversely estimate frequency-dependent dynamic parameters for O-rings of different specifications but identical elastic modulus.

文摘The research on ocean dynamics information plays a crucial role in understanding ocean phenomena, assessing marine environmental impacts, and guiding engineering designs. The Doppler information observed by radars reflects sea surface dynamics, to which ocean waves make important contributions. Low-incidence-angle real aperture radar(RAR)demonstrates great potential for independently observing vectorial Doppler information on the ocean surface. To systematically characterize and accurately estimate the wave-induced Doppler frequency shift(WVF) from lowincidence-angle RAR, this study conducts comprehensive influencing factor analysis and establishes sea-stateparameterized WVF models. First, a simulated WVF dataset is generated under a rotating low-incidence-angle RAR.The feature parameters of WVF are then determined by analysing contributing factors including wind waves, swells,and sea state parameters. Furthermore, two WVF models(WVF_Ku P9 with 9 inputs and WVF_Ku P4 with 4 inputs) are constructed by the Transformer encoder for different application scenarios. Both models achieve high accuracy for WVF estimation with root mean square errors(RMSE) of 1.874 Hz and 2.716 Hz, respectively. The reliability and superiority of the proposed models are validated through comparisons with the Ka DOP, which is a typical geophysical model function(GMF). The findings in this paper advance the understanding of WVF characteristics and generation mechanisms. The proposed estimation models can provide reliable estimates, offering critical references for lowincidence-angle RAR applications such as ocean surface current retrieval.
文摘BACKGROUND Pancreatic cystic neoplasms(PCNs)are increasingly detected due to advancements in radiographic techniques,with a prevalence of approximately 15%in the general population.These lesions range from benign to premalignant and malignant,posing a diagnostic challenge.Accurate differentiation is critical,as premalignant and malignant PCNs often require surgical intervention,while benign cysts may only need monitoring unless symptomatic.Current diagnostic methods,including cross-sectional imaging,endoscopic ultrasonography,and endoscopic ultrasonography-guided fine-needle aspiration/biopsy,are specialized,not universally available,and have variable accuracy.Clinical and laboratory parameters such as carbohydrate antigen 19-9(CA 19-9),neutrophillymphocyte ratio,platelet-lymphocyte ratio,and red cell distribution width(RDW)have been associated with malignancy risk,though only CA 19-9 is guideline-supported.AIM To assess the malignancy risk of PCNs using preoperative clinical and routine laboratory parameters.METHODS A retrospective cohort study analyzed 70 patients who underwent surgery for PCNs at Ankara Bilkent City Hospital between February 2019 and March 2023.Patients were categorized into group A(benign or low-grade dysplasia,n=40)and group B(malignancy or high-grade dysplasia,n=30)based on postoperative pathology.Preoperative demographic and laboratory parameters,including age,RDW,albumin,and CA 19-9,were compared.Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses identified independent predictors of malignancy.Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis evaluated predictive performance,with internal validation using bootstrapping.RESULTS Group B patients were older(69.86±9.58 years vs 52.74±16.85 years,P<0.001)and had a higher incidence of diabetes mellitus(57.1%vs 21.4%,P=0.002).RDW(16.2%vs 13.7%,P<0.001),platelet-lymphocyte ratio(178 vs 126,P=0.008),and CA 19-9(21.7 U/mL vs 9.3 U/mL,P=0.009)were significantly higher in group B,while albumin was lower(41 g/L vs 45 g/L,P=0.008).Multivariate analysis identified age[odds ratio=1.067,95%confidence interval(CI):1.014-1.122,P=0.012]and RDW(odds ratio=1.784,95%CI:1.172-2.715,P=0.007)as independent predictors.The area under the curve for age,RDW,and their combination was 0.798(95%CI:0.695-0.900),0.801(95%CI:0.692-0.911),and 0.858(95%CI:0.771-0.944),respectively,with bootstrapped validation confirming stability.Cut-off values of age≥60 years and RDW≥15.5%balanced sensitivity and specificity,increasing malignancy risk 15.3-fold and 22.6-fold,respectively.CONCLUSION Age and RDW are independent predictors of malignancy in PCNs,aiding in patient selection for advanced diagnostics and surgery.Larger,multicenter studies are needed to validate these findings.

文摘The estimation of orientation parameters and correction of lens distortion are crucial problems in the field of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles(UAVs)photogrammetry.In recent years,the utilization of UAVs for aerial photogrammetry has witnessed a surge in popularity.Typically,UAVs are equipped with low-cost non-metric cameras and a Position and Orientation System(POS).Unfortunately,the Interior Orientation Parameters(IOPs)of the non-metric cameras are not fixed.Whether the lens distortions are large or small,they effect the image coordinates accordingly.Additionally,Inertial Measurement Units(IMUs)often have observation errors.To address these challenges and improve parameter estimation for UAVs Light Detection and Ranging(LiDAR)and photogrammetry,this paper analyzes the accuracy of POS observations obtained from Global Navigation Satellite System Real Time Kinematic(GNSS-RTK)and IMU data.A method that incorporates additional known conditions for parameter estimation,a series of algorithms to simultaneously solve for IOPs,Exterior Orientation Parameters(EOPs),and camera lens distortion correction parameters are proposed.Extensive experiments demonstrate that the coordinates measured by GNSS-RTK can be directly used as linear EOPs;however,angular EOP measurements from IMUs exhibit relatively large errors compared to adjustment results and require correction during the adjustment process.The IOPs of non-metric cameras vary slightly between images but need to be treated as unknown parameters in high precision applications.Furthermore,it is found that the Ebner systematic error model is sensitive to the choice of the magnification parameter of the photographic baseline length in images,it should be set as less than or equal to one third of the photographic baseline to ensure stable solutions.

文摘Taking short-duration heavy rainfall and convective wind gusts as examples, the present study examined the characteristics of radar reflectivity and several convective parameters. We analyzed nowcasting techniques by integrating a high-resolution numerical weather prediction model with these convective parameters. Based on the CMA-GD 1-km model and its assimilation system, we conducted repeated tests on radar reflectivity data assimilation and analyzed their impact on nowcasting accuracy. Based on these analyses, we proposed a method to improve model forecasts using the useful indicative information provided by high-frequency radar reflectivity data and convective parameters. The improved method was applied to the CMA-GD 1-km model for nowcasting tests. Evaluations from batch tests and case analysis show that the proposed method significantly reduced the model's false alarm rates and improved its nowcasting performance.
