The main idea is to conceptually treat multi-dimensional problems as generalized 1D problems, based on which the concepts of generalized 1D FEM and its consequent EEP formulae have been developed in a unified manner. Equipped with these concepts, multi-dimensional problems can be recursively discretized in one dimension at each step, until a fully discretized standard finite element （FE） model is reached. This conceptual dimension-by- dimension （D-by-D） discretization procedure is entirely equivalent to a full FE discretization. As a reverse D-by-D recovery procedure, by using the unified EEP formulae together with proper extraction of the generalized nodal solutions, super-convergent displacements and first derivatives for two-dimensional （2D） and three-dimensional （3D） problems can be obtained over the domain. Numerical examples of 3D Poisson＇s equation and elasticity problem are given to verify the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed strategy.展开更多

The dimension accuracy of the tenon is assessed and the results indicate that it completely meets the requirement of blade tenon of aero-engine. Residual stresses, surface roughness, microstructure and microhardness are measured on ground surfaces of the specimen, which are all compared with that ground with vitrified CBN wheels. Under all the circumstances, compressive residual stress is obtained and the depth of the machining affected zone is found to be less than 40 μm. No phase transformation is observed at depths of up to 100 lain below the surface, though plastic deformation is visible in the process of grain refinement. The residual stress and microhardness of specimens ground with brazed CBN wheels are observed to be lower than those ground with vitrified ones. The arithmetic mean roughness （Ra） values obtained are all below 0.8μm.展开更多

In continuation of these works, the objective is to develop, through dimensional analogy, the idea of a hypothetical vector field, associated with the classical electromagnetic wave. This hypothetical field has a possible mathematical existence only when considering a space of four dimensions. The properties of the electromagnetic wave are preserved and equations with mathematical forms analogous to those of Maxwell’s equations are presented.展开更多

A group of Zr-Al-Ni-Cu and Cu-Zr-Ti-Ni bulk metallic glasses were designed based on the dc and their de values were predicted by the ANN model. Zr-Al-Ni-Cu and Cu-Zr-Ti-Ni bulk metallic glasses were prepared by injecting into copper mold. The amorphous structures and the determination of the dc of as-cast alloys were ascertained using X-ray diffraction. The results show that the predicted de values of glass forming alloys are in agreement with the corresponding experimental values. Thus the developed ANN model is reliable and adequate for designing the composition and predicting the de of glass forming alloy.展开更多

Seismic waves are signals with a definite frequency bandwidth and the waveform is affected by all the frequency components in the band. The results will not define the reservoir well if we calculate correlation dimension directly. In this paper, we present a method that integrates empirical mode decomposition （EMD） and correlation dimension. EMD is used to decompose the seismic waves and calculate the correlation dimension of every intrinsic mode function （IMF） component of the decomposed wave. Comparing the results with reservoirs identified by known wells, the most effective IMF is chosen and used to predict the reservoir. The method is applied in the Triassic Zhongyou group in the XX area of the Tahe oil field with quite good results.展开更多

文摘Based on the fractal theory,this paper takes the form of performing architecture as the research object,and systematically discusses the application value of fractal dimension in architectural design.By expounding the self-affine,self-similarity,and iterative generation characteristics of fractal geometry,the Box-Counting Dimension method is introduced as a quantitative tool to measure the dimensions of the roof plane,facade,and spatial shape of Wuzhen Grand Theatre and Harbin Grand Theatre.The research shows that the geometric complexity of Wuzhen Grand Theater in the“fifth façade”and multi-faceted façade is significantly higher than that of Harbin Grand Theater,and its morphological design is more inclined to echo the texture of the surrounding water towns.The Harbin Grand Theater realizes the dialogue with the natural environment with simple nonlinear lines.The research proves that fractal dimension can effectively quantify the complexity of architectural form,provide a scientific basis for the form design,environmental integration,and form interpretation of performance architecture,and expand the mathematical analysis dimension of architectural form design.

文摘Testing the association of two high-dimensional random vectors is of fundamental importance in the statistical theory and applications.In this paper,we propose a new test statistic based on the Frobenius norm and subtracting bias technique,which is generally applicable to high-dimensional data without restricting the distributional Assumptions.The limiting null distribution of the proposed test is shown to be a random variable combining a finite chi-squared-type mixture with a normal approximation.Our proposed test method can also be a normal approximation or a finite chi-squared-type mixtures under additional regularity conditions.To make the test statistic applicable,we introduce a wild bootstrap method and demonstrate its validity.The finite-sample performance of the proposed test via Monte Carlo simulations reveals that it performs better at controlling the empirical size than some existing tests,even when the normal approximation is invalid.Real data analysis is devoted to illustrating the proposed test.
文摘The phenomenon of photothermally induced transparency(PTIT)arises from the nonlinear behavior of an optical cavity,resulting from the heating of mirrors.By introducing a coupling field in the form of a standing wave,PTIT can be transitioned into photothermally induced grating(PTIG).A two-dimensional(2D)diffraction pattern is achieved through the adjustment of key parameters such as coupling strength and effective detuning.Notably,we observe first,second,and third-order intensity distributions,with the ability to transfer probe energy predominantly to the third order by fine-tuning the coupling strength.The intensity distribution is characterized by(±m,±n),where m,n=1,2,3.This proposed 2D grating system offers a novel platform for manipulating PTIG,presenting unique possibilities for enhanced functionality and control.

文摘Gas-liquid two-phase flow in fractal porous media is pivotal for engineering applications,yet it remains challenging to be accurately characterized due to complex microstructure-flow interactions.This study establishes a pore-scale numerical framework integratingMonte Carlo-generated fractal porousmedia with Volume of Fluid(VOF)simulations to unravel the coupling among pore distribution characterized by fractal dimension(Df),flow dynamics,and displacement efficiency.A pore-scale model based on the computed tomography(CT)microstructure of Berea sandstone is established,and the simulation results are compared with experimental data.Good agreement is found in phase distribution,breakthrough behavior,and flow path morphology,confirming the reliability of the numerical simulation method.Ten fractal porous media models with Df ranging from 1.25~1.7 were constructed using a Monte-Carlo approach.The gas-liquid two-phase flow dynamics was characterized using the VOF solver across gas injection rates of 0.05-5m/s,inwhich the time-resolved two-phase distribution patternswere systematically recorded.The results reveal that smaller fractal dimensions(Df=1.25~1.45)accelerate fingering breakthrough(peak velocity is 1.73 m/s at Df=1.45)due to a bimodal pore size distribution dominated by narrow channels.Increasing Df amplifies vorticity generation by about 3 times(eddy viscosity is 0.033 Pa⋅s at Df=1.7)through reduced interfacial curvature,while tortuosity-driven pressure differentials transition from sharp increases(0.4~6.3 Pa at Df=1.25~1.3)to inertial plateaus(4.8 Pa at Df=1.7).A nonlinear increase in equilibrium gas volume fraction(fav=0.692 at Df=1.7)emerges from residual gas saturation and turbulence-enhanced dispersion.This behavior is further modulated by flow velocity,with fav peaking at 0.72 under capillary-dominated conditions(0.05 m/s),but decreasing to 0.65 in the inertial regime(0.5 m/s).The work quantitatively links fractal topology to multiphase flow regimes,demonstrating the critical role of Df in governing preferential pathways,energy dissipation,and phase distribution.

文摘Detecting the complexity of natural systems,such as hydrological systems,can help improve our understanding of complex interactions and feedback between variables in these systems.The correlation dimension method,as one of the most useful methods,has been applied in many studies to investigate the chaos and detect the intrinsic dimensions of underlying dynamic systems.However,this method often relies on manual inspection due to uncertainties from iden-tifying the scaling region,making the correlation dimension value calculation troublesome and subjective.Therefore,it is necessary to propose a fast and intelligent algorithm to solve the above problem.This study implies the distinct windows tracking technique and fuzzy C-means clustering algorithm to accu-rately identify the scaling range and estimate the correlation dimension values.The proposed method is verified using the classic Lorenz chaotic system and 10 streamflow series in the Daling River basin of Liaoning Province,China.The results reveal that the proposed method is an intelligent and robust method for rapidly and accurately calculating the correlation dimension values,and the average operation efficiency of the proposed algorithm is 30 times faster than that of the original Grassberger-Procaccia algorithm.

文摘Against the backdrop of intensified global cultural collisions and ideological competition,deeply integrating excellent traditional Chinese culture(ETCC)into university ideological and political courses(IPCs)has become an imperative of our times.Guided by General Secretary Xi Jinping’s methodology of“Two Integrations,”this paper examines the pathways for this integration from three dimensions:value,theory,and practice.The value dimension emphasizes fostering moral conviction and strengthening the spiritual foundation to meet needs such as safeguarding cultural security,preserving the spiritual lineage,and constructing a spiritual framework.The theoretical dimension reveals the mutually constitutive breakthroughs between Marxism and traditional Chinese dialectical thinking,encompassing methodological complementarity,logical coherence of values,and discursive system innovation.The practical dimension involves constructing a comprehensive educational ecosystem by localizing teaching content,modernizing traditional resources,and fostering inter-platform collaborative education,thereby internalizing the value of traditional culture.These three dimensions synergize and co-constitute each other,collectively providing methodological support and practical paradigms for cultivating cultural confidence among youth and forging a new generation capable of shouldering the mission of national rejuvenation.

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This paper presents a strategy for computation of super-convergent solutions of multi-dimensional problems in the finite element method （FEM） by recursive application of the one-dimensional （1D） element energy projection （EEP） technique. The main idea is to conceptually treat multi-dimensional problems as generalized 1D problems, based on which the concepts of generalized 1D FEM and its consequent EEP formulae have been developed in a unified manner. Equipped with these concepts, multi-dimensional problems can be recursively discretized in one dimension at each step, until a fully discretized standard finite element （FE） model is reached. This conceptual dimension-by- dimension （D-by-D） discretization procedure is entirely equivalent to a full FE discretization. As a reverse D-by-D recovery procedure, by using the unified EEP formulae together with proper extraction of the generalized nodal solutions, super-convergent displacements and first derivatives for two-dimensional （2D） and three-dimensional （3D） problems can be obtained over the domain. Numerical examples of 3D Poisson＇s equation and elasticity problem are given to verify the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed strategy.

文摘Titanium alloy tenon is creep feed ground with monolayer brazed cubic boron nitride （CBN） shaped wheels. The dimension accuracy of the tenon is assessed and the results indicate that it completely meets the requirement of blade tenon of aero-engine. Residual stresses, surface roughness, microstructure and microhardness are measured on ground surfaces of the specimen, which are all compared with that ground with vitrified CBN wheels. Under all the circumstances, compressive residual stress is obtained and the depth of the machining affected zone is found to be less than 40 μm. No phase transformation is observed at depths of up to 100 lain below the surface, though plastic deformation is visible in the process of grain refinement. The residual stress and microhardness of specimens ground with brazed CBN wheels are observed to be lower than those ground with vitrified ones. The arithmetic mean roughness （Ra） values obtained are all below 0.8μm.
文摘The idea of a human community with a shared future was proposed by the Communist Party of China(CPC)Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at its core for the future development of human beings to face up to the most important question in today's world:“What is happening to the world and what should we do?”It profoundly answers the question of the world,history,and the times.The theory of a human community with a shared future is an innovative theory with a multidimensional formation logic that guides humanity toward continually seeking common interests and values.This paper dives into the profound motivations behind building a human community with a shared future from historical,cultural,and practical dimensions and analyzes its epochal value from both domestic and international perspectives.This not only helps exert China's role in the international community,contributing Chinese strength to the construction of a peaceful,stable,and prosperous human society,but also enhances the influence of the idea of a human community with a shared future in the international community,accelerating the building of a human community with a shared future that considers the legitimate concerns of all countries,and aiding in solving the crises facing the world.
文摘In two previous papers <a href="#ref1">[1]</a> and <a href="#ref2">[2]</a>, a structure for vector products in <em>n</em> dimensions was presented, and at the same time it was possible to propose the existence of a vector analogous to the curl of a vector field, for a space of four dimensions. In continuation of these works, the objective is to develop, through dimensional analogy, the idea of a hypothetical vector field, associated with the classical electromagnetic wave. This hypothetical field has a possible mathematical existence only when considering a space of four dimensions. The properties of the electromagnetic wave are preserved and equations with mathematical forms analogous to those of Maxwell’s equations are presented.

文摘An artificial neural network （ANN） model was developed for simulating and predicting critical dimension dc of glass forming alloys. A group of Zr-Al-Ni-Cu and Cu-Zr-Ti-Ni bulk metallic glasses were designed based on the dc and their de values were predicted by the ANN model. Zr-Al-Ni-Cu and Cu-Zr-Ti-Ni bulk metallic glasses were prepared by injecting into copper mold. The amorphous structures and the determination of the dc of as-cast alloys were ascertained using X-ray diffraction. The results show that the predicted de values of glass forming alloys are in agreement with the corresponding experimental values. Thus the developed ANN model is reliable and adequate for designing the composition and predicting the de of glass forming alloy.

文摘In hydrocarbon reservoirs, seismic waveforms become complex and the correlation dimension becomes smaller. Seismic waves are signals with a definite frequency bandwidth and the waveform is affected by all the frequency components in the band. The results will not define the reservoir well if we calculate correlation dimension directly. In this paper, we present a method that integrates empirical mode decomposition （EMD） and correlation dimension. EMD is used to decompose the seismic waves and calculate the correlation dimension of every intrinsic mode function （IMF） component of the decomposed wave. Comparing the results with reservoirs identified by known wells, the most effective IMF is chosen and used to predict the reservoir. The method is applied in the Triassic Zhongyou group in the XX area of the Tahe oil field with quite good results.
