Using the Community Atmosphere Model versi...Countries around the world have been making efforts to reduce pollutant emissions. However, the response of global black carbon(BC) aging to emission changes remains unclear. Using the Community Atmosphere Model version 6 with a machine-learning-integrated four-mode version of the Modal Aerosol Module, we quantify global BC aging responses to emission reductions for 2011–2018 and for 2050 and 2100 under carbon neutrality. During 2011–18, global trends in BC aging degree(mass ratio of coatings to BC, R_(BC)) exhibited marked regional disparities, with a significant increase in China(5.4% yr^(-1)), which contrasts with minimal changes in the USA, Europe, and India. The divergence is attributed to opposing trends in secondary organic aerosol(SOA) and sulfate coatings, driven by regional changes in the emission ratios of corresponding coating precursors to BC(volatile organic compounds-VOCs/BC and SO_(2)/BC). Projections under carbon neutrality reveal that R_(BC) will increase globally by 47%(118%) in 2050(2100), with strong convergent increases expected across major source regions. The R_(BC) increase, primarily driven by enhanced SOA coatings due to sharper BC reductions relative to VOCs, will enhance the global BC mass absorption cross-section(MAC) by 11%(17%) in 2050(2100).Consequently, although the global BC burden will decline sharply by 60%(76%), the enhanced MAC partially offsets the magnitude of the decline in the BC direct radiative effect, resulting in the moderation of global BC DRE decreases to 88%(92%) of the BC burden reductions in 2050(2100). This study highlights the globally enhanced BC aging and light absorption capacity under carbon neutrality, thereby partly offsetting the impact of BC direct emission reductions on future changes in BC radiative effects globally.展开更多

文摘The uplift resistance of the soil overlying shield tunnels significantly impacts their anti-floating stability.However,research on uplift resistance concerning special-shaped shield tunnels is limited.This study combines numerical simulation with machine learning techniques to explore this issue.It presents a summary of special-shaped tunnel geometries and introduces a shape coefficient.Through the finite element software,Plaxis3D,the study simulates six key parameters—shape coefficient,burial depth ratio,tunnel’s longest horizontal length,internal friction angle,cohesion,and soil submerged bulk density—that impact uplift resistance across different conditions.Employing XGBoost and ANN methods,the feature importance of each parameter was analyzed based on the numerical simulation results.The findings demonstrate that a tunnel shape more closely resembling a circle leads to reduced uplift resistance in the overlying soil,whereas other parameters exhibit the contrary effects.Furthermore,the study reveals a diminishing trend in the feature importance of buried depth ratio,internal friction angle,tunnel longest horizontal length,cohesion,soil submerged bulk density,and shape coefficient in influencing uplift resistance.
文摘Fabric dyeing is a critical production process in the clothing industry and heavily relies on batch processing machines(BPM).In this study,the parallel BPM scheduling problem with machine eligibility in fabric dyeing is considered,and an adaptive cooperated shuffled frog-leaping algorithm(ACSFLA)is proposed to minimize makespan and total tardiness simultaneously.ACSFLA determines the search times for each memeplex based on its quality,with more searches in high-quality memeplexes.An adaptive cooperated and diversified search mechanism is applied,dynamically adjusting search strategies for each memeplex based on their dominance relationships and quality.During the cooperated search,ACSFLA uses a segmented and dynamic targeted search approach,while in non-cooperated scenarios,the search focuses on local search around superior solutions to improve efficiency.Furthermore,ACSFLA employs adaptive population division and partial population shuffling strategies.Through these strategies,memeplexes with low evolutionary potential are selected for reconstruction in the next generation,while thosewithhighevolutionarypotential are retained to continue their evolution.Toevaluate the performance of ACSFLA,comparative experiments were conducted using ACSFLA,SFLA,ASFLA,MOABC,and NSGA-CC in 90 instances.The computational results reveal that ACSFLA outperforms the other algorithms in 78 of the 90 test cases,highlighting its advantages in solving the parallel BPM scheduling problem with machine eligibility.

文摘Accurate and robust detection of wax appearance(a medium-to high-molecular-weight component of crude oil)is crucial for the efficient operation of hydrocarbon transportation.The wax appearance temperature(WAT)is the lowest temperature at which the wax begins to form.When crude oil cools to its WAT,wax crystals precipitate,forming deposits on pipelines as the solubility limit is reached.Therefore,WAT is a crucial quality assurance parameter,especially when dealing with modern fuel oil blends.In this study,we use machine learning via MATLAB’s Bioinformatics Toolbox to predict the WAT of marine fuel samples by correlating near-infrared spectral data with laboratory-measured values.The dataset provided by Intertek PLC-a total quality assurance provider of inspection,testing,and certification services-includes industrial data that is imbalanced,with a higher proportion of high-WAT samples compared to low-WAT samples.The objective is to predict marine fuel oil blends with unusually high WAT values(>35℃)without relying on time-consuming and irregular laboratory-based measurements.The results demonstrate that the developed model,based on the one-class support vector machine(OCSVM)algorithm,achieved a Recall of 96,accurately predicting 96%of fuel samples with WAT>35℃.For standard binary classification,the Recall was 85.7.The trained OCSVM model is expected to facilitate rapid and well-informed decision-making for logistics and storage when choosing fuel oils.

文摘As a complicated optimization problem,parallel batch processing machines scheduling problem(PBPMSP)exists in many real-life manufacturing industries such as textiles and semiconductors.Machine eligibility means that at least one machine is not eligible for at least one job.PBPMSP and scheduling problems with machine eligibility are frequently considered;however,PBPMSP with machine eligibility is seldom explored.This study investigates PBPMSP with machine eligibility in fabric dyeing and presents a novel shuffled frog-leaping algorithm with competition(CSFLA)to minimize makespan.In CSFLA,the initial population is produced in a heuristic and random way,and the competitive search of memeplexes comprises two phases.Competition between any two memeplexes is done in the first phase,then iteration times are adjusted based on competition,and search strategies are adjusted adaptively based on the evolution quality of memeplexes in the second phase.An adaptive population shuffling is given.Computational experiments are conducted on 100 instances.The computational results showed that the new strategies of CSFLA are effective and that CSFLA has promising advantages in solving the considered PBPMSP.

文摘Countries around the world have been making efforts to reduce pollutant emissions. However, the response of global black carbon(BC) aging to emission changes remains unclear. Using the Community Atmosphere Model version 6 with a machine-learning-integrated four-mode version of the Modal Aerosol Module, we quantify global BC aging responses to emission reductions for 2011–2018 and for 2050 and 2100 under carbon neutrality. During 2011–18, global trends in BC aging degree(mass ratio of coatings to BC, R_(BC)) exhibited marked regional disparities, with a significant increase in China(5.4% yr^(-1)), which contrasts with minimal changes in the USA, Europe, and India. The divergence is attributed to opposing trends in secondary organic aerosol(SOA) and sulfate coatings, driven by regional changes in the emission ratios of corresponding coating precursors to BC(volatile organic compounds-VOCs/BC and SO_(2)/BC). Projections under carbon neutrality reveal that R_(BC) will increase globally by 47%(118%) in 2050(2100), with strong convergent increases expected across major source regions. The R_(BC) increase, primarily driven by enhanced SOA coatings due to sharper BC reductions relative to VOCs, will enhance the global BC mass absorption cross-section(MAC) by 11%(17%) in 2050(2100).Consequently, although the global BC burden will decline sharply by 60%(76%), the enhanced MAC partially offsets the magnitude of the decline in the BC direct radiative effect, resulting in the moderation of global BC DRE decreases to 88%(92%) of the BC burden reductions in 2050(2100). This study highlights the globally enhanced BC aging and light absorption capacity under carbon neutrality, thereby partly offsetting the impact of BC direct emission reductions on future changes in BC radiative effects globally.
文摘A theoretical analysis regarding active vibration control of rotating machines with current-controlled electrodynamic actuators between machine feet and steel frame foundation and with velocity feedback of the machine feet vibrations is presented.First,a generalized mathematical formulation is derived based on a state-space description which can be used for different kinds of models(1D,2D,and 3D models).It is shown that under special boundary conditions,the control parameters can be directly implemented into the stiffness and damping matrices of the system.Based on the generalized mathematical formulation,an example of a rotating machine—described by a 2D model—with journal bearings,flexible rotor,current-controlled electrodynamic actuators,steel frame foundation,and velocity feedback of the machine feet vibrations is presented where the effectiveness of the described active vibration control system is demonstrated.

文摘The switch machine is a vital component in the railway system,playing a significant role in ensuring the safe operation of trains.To address the shortcomings of existing fault diagnosis methods for the switch machine and leveraging the strong anti-interference and high sensitivity characteristics of vibration signals,we proposed a VMD-SDP-CNN(Variational mode decomposition-Symmetric dot pattern-Convolutional neural network)fault diagnosis method based on switch machine vibration signals.Firstly,the vibration signal of the switch machine was decomposed by VMD to obtain several intrinsic mode function(IMF)components.Secondly,the SDP method was employed to transform the decomposed IMF components into two-dimensional images,and the issue of one-dimensional signal recognition was transformed into the issue of two-dimensional image recognition.Finally,a CNN was used to realize the fault diagnosis of the switch machine.The experimental results showed that the recognition accuracy of the five actual working conditions of the switch machine using this method was superior to that of typical deep learning and machine learning methods,verifying its practicability and effectiveness.

文摘The accurate selection of operational parameters is critical for ensuring the safety,efficiency,and automation of Tunnel Boring Machine(TBM)operations.This study proposes a similarity-based framework integrating model-based boring indexes(derived from rock fragmentation mechanisms)and Euclidean distance analysis to achieve real-time recommendations of TBM operational parameters.Key performance indicators-thrust(F),torque(T),and penetration(p)-were used to calculate three model-based boring indexes(a,b,k),which quantify dynamic rock fragmentation behavior.A dataset of 359 candidate samples,reflecting diverse geological conditions from the Yin-Chao water conveyance project in Inner Mongolia,China,was utilized to validate the framework.The system dynamically recommends parameters by matching real-time data with historical cases through standardized Euclidean distance,achieving high accuracy.Specifically,the mean absolute error(MAE)for rotation speed(n)was 0.10 r/min,corresponding to a mean absolute percentage error(MAPE)of 1.09%.For advance rate(v),the MAE was 3.4 mm/min,with a MAPE of 4.50%.The predicted thrust(F)and torque(T)values exhibited strong agreement with field measurements,with MAEs of 270 kN and 178 kN∙m,respectively.Field applications demonstrated a 30%reduction in parameter adjustment time compared to empirical methods.This work provides a robust solution for real-time TBM control,advancing intelligent tunneling in complex geological environments.

文摘Cyclohexene is an important raw material in the production of nylon.Selective hydrogenation of benzene is a key method for preparing cyclohexene.However,the Ru catalysts used in current industrial processes still face challenges,including high metal usage,high process costs,and low cyclohexene yield.This study utilizes existing literature data combined with machine learning methods to analyze the factors influencing benzene conversion,cyclohexene selectivity,and yield in the benzene hydrogenation to cyclohexene reaction.It constructs predictive models based on XGBoost and Random Forest algorithms.After analysis,it was found that reaction time,Ru content,and space velocity are key factors influencing cyclohexene yield,selectivity,and benzene conversion.Shapley Additive Explanations(SHAP)analysis and feature importance analysis further revealed the contribution of each variable to the reaction outcomes.Additionally,we randomly generated one million variable combinations using the Dirichlet distribution to attempt to predict high-yield catalyst formulations.This paper provides new insights into the application of machine learning in heterogeneous catalysis and offers some reference for further research.

文摘With the continued advancement of deep electrification across various industries, the demand for higher power density in electric machines is steadily increasing. However, realizing high power density remains a significant technical challenge and has become a major bottleneck in machine development. The design of such machines is inherently constrained by the strong coupling among electromagnetic(EM), thermal, and mechanical domains, while systematic analyses of these challenges remain insufficient. This paper clarifies the interdependent relationships among these domains during the machine design process. It reviews key enabling strategies, including machine design based on advanced electromagnetic theory, innovative thermal management techniques, cutting-edge material advancements, and state-of-the-art manufacturing technologies, that collectively enhance the performance and feasibility of high power density machines(HPDMs). The insights provided aim to support the development of nextgeneration machine systems with higher power density, compact size, and robust, sustainable performance across a wide range of industrial and technological applications.
文摘The application and promotion of waste glass powder concrete(WGPC)cansignificantly alleviate the pressure of concrete material scarcity and environmental pollution.Compressive strength(CS)is a critical parameter for evaluating the efficacy of WGPC.Unlike conventional testing methods,machine learning techniques offer precise and reliable predictions of concrete’s compressive strength,especially in its long-term mechanical properties.In this work,four models,namely Multiple Linear Regression(MLR),Back Propagation Neural Network(BPNN),Support Vector Regression(SVR),and Random Forest Regression(RFR)were employed.Furthermore,particle swarm optimization(PSO)algorithm and cross-validation techniques were applied to fine-tune the model parameters,striving for peak prediction performance.The results indicated that optimized models generally exhibit enhanced predictive accuracy compared to their basic counterparts.Notably,the PSO-RFR model excels among all evaluated models,showcasing superior performance on the testing dataset.It achieves a coefficient of determination(R^(2))of 0.9231,a mean absolute error(MAE)of 2.1073,and a root mean square error(RMSE)of 3.6903.When compared to experimental results,the PSO-RFR and PSO-BPNN models demonstrate exceptional predictive accuracy.Notably,the PSO-BPNN model exhibits the closest R^(2)values between its training and test sets.This close alignment of R^(2)values between the training and testing sets reflects the PSO-BPNN model’s superior generalization ability for unseen data.The findings present an efficient method for predicting concrete’s compressive strength,contributing to the sustainable development of concrete materials,and providing theoretical support for their research and application.
文摘of patients.In medicine and rehabilitation engineering,machine vision technology has been widely used to design intelligent prostheses to help patients restore limb function.Grip strength control is one of the key challenges in developing prosthetic hands;for example,patients need to appropriately control the grip strength of the prosthetic hand depending on the nature and size of the object to be gripped to prevent it from slipping or being damaged.This study combines machine learning and deep learning techniques to determine object grip information by analyzing images of such objects,including their type,texture,and size,so as to select the appropriate grip strength threshold.The electromyographic gesture-control mode is integrated with the visual recognition system to achieve active detection and control of the intelligent prosthetic hand.This research is also transplanted into the K210 main control board for offline recognition to achieve more efficient real-time performance.The experimental results demonstrate that the system achieves an object recognition accuracy rate of 90%,and the real-machine recognition rate is above 85%.The system successfully implements adaptive grasping for eggs(fragile items)and water bottles(rigid objects).

文摘The advantages of genome selection(GS) in animal and plant breeding are self-evident.Traditional parametric models have disadvantage in better fit the increasingly large sequencing data and capture complex effects accurately.Machine learning models have demonstrated remarkable potential in addressing these challenges.In this study,we introduced the concept of mixed kernel functions to explore the performance of support vector machine regression(SVR) in GS.Six single kernel functions(SVR_L,SVR_C,SVR_G,SVR_P,SVR_S,SVR_L) and four mixed kernel functions(SVR_GS,SVR_GP,SVR_LS,SVR_LP) were used to predict genome breeding values.The prediction accuracy,mean squared error(MSE) and mean absolute error(MAE) were used as evaluation indicators to compare with two traditional parametric models(GBLUP,BayesB) and two popular machine learning models(RF,KcRR).The results indicate that in most cases,the performance of the mixed kernel function model significantly outperforms that of GBLUP,BayesB and single kernel function.For instance,for T1 in the pig dataset,the predictive accuracy of SVR_GS is improved by 10% compared to GBLUP,and by approximately 4.4 and 18.6% compared to SVR_G and SVR_S respectively.For E1 in the wheat dataset,SVR_GS achieves 13.3% higher prediction accuracy than GBLUP.Among single kernel functions,the Laplacian and Gaussian kernel functions yield similar results,with the Gaussian kernel function performing better.The mixed kernel function notably reduces the MSE and MAE when compared to all single kernel functions.Furthermore,regarding runtime,SVR_GS and SVR_GP mixed kernel functions run approximately three times faster than GBLUP in the pig dataset,with only a slight increase in runtime compared to the single kernel function model.In summary,the mixed kernel function model of SVR demonstrates speed and accuracy competitiveness,and the model such as SVR_GS has important application potential for GS.

文摘Tropospheric zenith wet delay(ZWD)plays a vital role in the analysis of space geodetic observations.In recent years,machine learning methods have been increasingly applied to improve the accuracy of ZWD calculations.However,a single machine learning model has limited generalization capabilities.To address these limitations,this study introduces a novel machine learning fusion(MLF)algorithm with stronger generalization capabilities to enhance ZWD modeling and prediction accuracy.The MLF algorithm utilizes a two-layer structure integrating extra trees(ET),backpropagation neural network(BPNN),and linear regression models.By comparing the root mean square error(RMSE)of these models,we found that both ET-based and MLF-based models outperform RF-based and BPNN-based models in terms of internal and external accuracy,across both surface meteorological data-based and blind models.The improvement in exte rnal accuracy is particularly significant in the blind models.Our re sults show that the MLF(with an RMSE of 3.93 cm)and ET(3.99 cm)models outperform the traditional GPT3model(4.07 cm),while the RF(4.21 cm)and BPNN(4.14 cm)have worse external accuracies than the GPT3 model.It is worth noting that the BPNN suffered from overfitting during external accuracy tests,which was avoided by the MLF.In summary,regardless of the availability of surface meteorological data,the MLF-based empirical models demonstrate superior internal and external accuracy compared to the other tested models in this study.
