Indeed, se...In the issue of rainfall estimation by radar through the necessary relationship between radar reflectivity Z and rain rate R (Z-R), the main limitation is attributed to the variability of this relationship. Indeed, several pre-vious studies have shown the great variability of this relationship in space and time, from a rainfall event to another and even within a single rainfall event. Recent studies have shown that the variability of raindrop size distributions and thereby Z-R relationships is therefore, more the result of complex dynamic, thermody-namic and microphysical processes within rainfall systems than a convective/stratiform classification of the ground rainfall signature. The raindrop number and size at ground being the resultant of various processes mentioned above, a suitable approach would be to analyze their variability in relation to that of Z-R relation-ship. In this study, we investigated the total raindrop concentration number NT and the median volume di-ameter D0 used in numerous studies, and have shown that the combination of these two ‘observed’ parame-ters appears to be an interesting approach to better understand the variability of the Z-R relationships in the rainfall events, without assuming a certain analytical raindrop size distribution model (exponential, gamma, or log-normal). The present study is based on the analysis of disdrometer data collected at different seasons and places in Africa, and aims to show the degree of the raindrop size and number implication in regard to the Z-R relationships variability.展开更多

In thi...The errors in radar quantitative precipitation estimations consist not only of systematic biases caused by random noises but also spatially nonuniform biases in radar rainfall at individual rain-gauge stations. In this study, a real-time adjustment to the radar reflectivity rainfall rates （Z R） relationship scheme and the gauge-corrected, radar-based, estimation scheme with inverse distance weighting interpolation was devel- oped. Based on the characteristics of the two schemes, the two-step correction technique of radar quantitative precipitation estimation is proposed. To minimize the errors between radar quantitative precipitation es- timations and rain gauge observations, a real-time adjustment to the Z R relationship scheme is used to remove systematic bias on the time-domain. The gauge-corrected, radar-based, estimation scheme is then used to eliminate non-uniform errors in space. Based on radar data and rain gauge observations near the Huaihe River, the two-step correction technique was evaluated using two heavy-precipitation events. The results show that the proposed scheme improved not only in the underestimation of rainfall but also reduced the root-mean-square error and the mean relative error of radar-rain gauge pairs.展开更多

The domain of maritime and shipping is characterized by a vast array of document types, filled with complex, large-scale, and often chaotic knowledge and relationships. Effectively managing these documents is crucial for developing a Large Language Model (LLM) in the maritime domain, enabling practitioners to access and leverage valuable information. A Knowledge Graph (KG) offers a state-of-the-art solution for enhancing knowledge retrieval, providing more accurate responses and enabling context-aware reasoning. This paper presents a framework for utilizing maritime and shipping documents to construct a knowledge graph using GraphRAG, a hybrid tool combining graph-based retrieval and generation capabilities. The extraction of entities and relationships from these documents and the KG construction process are detailed. Furthermore, the KG is integrated with an LLM to develop a Q&A system, demonstrating that the system significantly improves answer accuracy compared to traditional LLMs. Additionally, the KG construction process is up to 50% faster than conventional LLM-based approaches, underscoring the efficiency of our method. This study provides a promising approach to digital intelligence in shipping, advancing knowledge accessibility and decision-making.展开更多

文摘In the issue of rainfall estimation by radar through the necessary relationship between radar reflectivity Z and rain rate R (Z-R), the main limitation is attributed to the variability of this relationship.

Recent studies have shown that the variability of raindrop size distributions and thereby Z-R relationships is therefore, more the result of complex dynamic, thermody-namic and microphysical processes within rainfall systems than a convective/stratiform classification of the ground rainfall signature.

文摘The errors in radar quantitative precipitation estimations consist not only of systematic biases caused by random noises but also spatially nonuniform biases in radar rainfall at individual rain-gauge stations. In this study, a real-time adjustment to the radar reflectivity rainfall rates （Z R） relationship scheme and the gauge-corrected, radar-based, estimation scheme with inverse distance weighting interpolation was devel- oped. Based on the characteristics of the two schemes, the two-step correction technique of radar quantitative precipitation estimation is proposed. To minimize the errors between radar quantitative precipitation es- timations and rain gauge observations, a real-time adjustment to the Z R relationship scheme is used to remove systematic bias on the time-domain. The gauge-corrected, radar-based, estimation scheme is then used to eliminate non-uniform errors in space. Based on radar data and rain gauge observations near the Huaihe River, the two-step correction technique was evaluated using two heavy-precipitation events. The results show that the proposed scheme improved not only in the underestimation of rainfall but also reduced the root-mean-square error and the mean relative error of radar-rain gauge pairs.

文摘Soybean is widely used in diets,and numerous reports have highlighted its antioxidant properties.However,constructing a methodology for rapid identifying and predicting a series of antioxidant active ingredients in Soybean presents certain challenges.Therefore,we introduced the spectrum-effect relationship-ingredient knockout identification technique to identify a series of antioxidant active ingredients in soybean.By combining untargeted metabolomics with network pharmacology,we predicted the antioxidant active ingredients and their target sites.We successfully identified 4 antioxidant active compounds(daidzein,genistein,daidzein,and glycitin)and 10 corresponding antioxidant targets(epidermal growth factor receptor(EGFR),estrogen receptor 1(ESR1),steroid receptor coactivator(SRC),tumor necrosis factor(TNF),kinase insert domain receptor(KDR),AKT serine/threonine kinase 1(AKT1),growth factor receptor bound protein 2(GRB2),signal transducer and activator of transcription1(STAT1),mitogen-activated protein kinase 8(MAPK8),B-cell lymphoma-2(BCL2))by our analysis.The validation results from cell experiments revealed that glycitin exhibited the best antioxidant activity and significantly influenced the expression of EGFR and the proteins associated with nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2/NAD(P)H quinone dehydrogenase 1(NRF2/NQO1)signaling pathways.These findings were consistent with the predicted outcomes and were further confirmed in a zebrafish model.It suggests that glycitin may exert antioxidant effects by regulating the expression of EGFR,NRF2,and NQO1 proteins.The results demonstrate that a rapid analytical method for determining antioxidant activity was established.
文摘BACKGROUND Hyperglycemia secondary to diabetes can lead to organ failure unless properly controlled,and it is associated with numerous health issues,particularly metabolic problems.Breast cancer is one of the most common malignancies in females worldwide and represents a major health concern due to its morbidity and mortality.The progression of the disease and the response to treatment depend on numerous variables,including both tumor biology and patient-related factors.Key prognostic indicators include age,tumor size,lymph node involvement,histological type,hormone receptor status,and expression of biomarkers such as HER2.AIM To investigate the relationship between preoperative blood glucose levels and cancer prognostic factors in patients diagnosed with breast cancer.METHODS In this study patients diagnosed with breast cancer were classified into two groups:Those with blood glucose levels<125 mg/dL and those with levels>125 mg/dL.Estrogen and progesterone receptor positivity,Ki-67 percentage,Cerb2 positivity,number of positive lymph nodes,and presence of lymphovascular invasion were examined histopathologically.RESULTS The study included 246 patients with breast cancer:196 were in the normal glucose group and 50 were in the elevated glucose group.In the normal glucose group,68%of the tumors were left-sided and 32%were right-sided,while all tumors in the elevated glucose group were left-sided.This difference was statistically significant(P<0.001).Tumor size,Ki-67,and the number of positive lymph nodes were not associated with blood glucose in patients with breast cancer(P>0.05 for all).However,blood glucose was correlated with age in this population.Correlation analyses revealed that blood glucose was positively correlated with age(r=0.23,P<0.001).Additionally,Ki-67 was correlated with tumor size(r=0.14,P=0.03)and age(r=-0.18,P=0.005).CONCLUSION Our study highlighted the complex interplay between metabolic factors,such as fasting glucose levels,and breast cancer characteristics.Elevated glucose levels were associated with older age.The significant association between tumor laterality and glucose levels underscores the need for further investigation into the collective influence of metabolic and anatomical factors on breast cancer development and progression.

文摘This paper explored how the work hardening process enhances the yield strength(YS)of magnesium alloy and established a novel quantitative relationship between microstructure and YS.The YS of an extruded Mg–Nd–Zn–Zr alloy was nearly tripled by rotary swaging at 200℃,attributing to dislocation accumulation,grain fragmentation,and basal texture formation.A modified Hall–Petch relationship(GM–HP)was established by introducing the equivalent orientation factor and dislocation density to accurately quantify the YS and the contribution of each strengthening mechanism.The contributions of dislocation hardening and grain boundary strengthening were multiplied by the strong basal texture.This paper offered valuable insights and guidance for designing and optimizing high-strength wrought magnesium alloys and their plastic processing methods.

文摘With the rapid development of artificial intelligence(AI)technology,its application in higher education has gradually shifted from traditional teaching aids to deeper levels of interactive learning and emotional connection support.AI can enhance teaching efficiency,personalized learning,and real-time feedback;however,in areas such as emotional communication and teacher-student interaction,AI still cannot fully replace the role of teachers.This study aims to explore the transformation of teacher-student relationships in the era of AI,analyze the impact of AI technology on teaching interaction,emotional support,and teacher-student trust,and propose strategies to address these challenges.The research findings indicate that while AI has significant advantages in improving educational efficiency,it has limitations in interpersonal emotional support and the transformation of the teacher’s role.To ensure the comprehensiveness and humanization of education,educators should strengthen emotional care and improve students’emotional literacy in the use of AI,and implement transparent data management and privacy protection measures to enhance teacher-student trust.The study also suggests that by enhancing teacher-student trust,strengthening emotional support,and increasing transparency,educators can effectively address the challenges of teacher-student relationships in the AI era.This research provides theoretical support and practical guidance for the integration of AI technology with educational humanistic care,promoting more comprehensive,personalized,and humane educational development.

文摘This study investigated the fluctuations in the relationship between the Silk Road Pattern(SRP)and the boreal summer North Atlantic Oscillation(SNAO).The results indicated that the SRP–SNAO relationship was relatively weak during 1958–2022,which was primarily due to fluctuations,particularly the reversal in their relationship since the late 1990s.Using wavelet coherence analysis,the authors identified a strong SRP–SNAO linkage on a 4–8-yr timescale,in particular during the mid-1970s to the early/mid-1990s.This strong linkage is mainly attributable to the intensification and eastward movement of the southern part of the SNAO around the mid/late 1970s,which favored the strong connection between the SNAO and the SRP.Additionally,the interdecadal changes of the atmospheric circulations over the North Atlantic and Eurasia around the mid/late 1970s that resembled the circulation anomalies related to the strong SRP–SNAO linkage,may also have provided a favorable background for the strong connection between the two teleconnections.These findings on the fluctuations in the SRP–SNAO linkage may offer important implications for understanding the impact of the SNAO on the SRP and the variability of the SRP.

文摘To enhance the resistance of honeycomb sandwich panel against local impact,this study delved into the matching relationship between face sheets and core.An integrated approach,combining experiment,simulation,and theoretical methods,was used.Local loading experiments were conducted to validate the accuracy of the finite element model.Furthermore,a control equation was formulated to correlate structural parameters with response modes,and a matching coefficientλ(representing the ratio of core thickness to face sheet thickness)was introduced to establish a link between these parameters and impact characteristics.A demand-driven reverse design methodology for structural parameters was developed,with numerical simulations employed to assess its effectiveness.The results indicate that the proposed theory can accurately predict response modes and key indicators.An increase in theλbolsters the structural indentation resistance while concurrently heightens the likelihood of penetration.Conversely,a decrease in theλimproves the resistance to penetration,albeit potentially leading to significant deformations in the rear face sheet.Numerical simulations demonstrate that the reverse design methodology significantly enhances the structural penetration resistance.Comparative analyses indicate that appropriate matching reduces indentation depth by 27.4% and indentation radius by 41.8%of the proposed structure.

文摘Within the prefrontal-cingulate cortex,abnormalities in coupling between neuronal networks can disturb the emotion-cognition interactions,contributing to the development of mental disorders such as depression.Despite this understanding,the neural circuit mechanisms underlying this phenomenon remain elusive.In this study,we present a biophysical computational model encompassing three crucial regions,including the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex,subgenual anterior cingulate cortex,and ventromedial prefrontal cortex.The objective is to investigate the role of coupling relationships within the prefrontal-cingulate cortex networks in balancing emotions and cognitive processes.The numerical results confirm that coupled weights play a crucial role in the balance of emotional cognitive networks.Furthermore,our model predicts the pathogenic mechanism of depression resulting from abnormalities in the subgenual cortex,and network functionality was restored through intervention in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex.This study utilizes computational modeling techniques to provide an insight explanation for the diagnosis and treatment of depression.
