This paper investigates how this new business by means of integration of products and services is achieved in Germany and Italy. In addition, it analyzes the differences according to the company sizes. The results include that this type of business is in many cases motivated by their focus on customers and often consists of physical products and their maintenance. The Italian companies, as opposed to the German ones, often design their physical products specifically for this type of offers. From the analysis based on the size difference, small companies are found to achieve specific design for this type of offers while owning physical products. There do not seem to be any established methods or tools developed to support the development of such offers and within such methods/tools there would be room for more adaptation in form of physical product design.展开更多

文摘To reduce the propulsion system installation thrust loss under high angle of attack maneuvering,a control method based on real-time optimization of the integrated aeropropulsion is proposed.Firstly,based on data fitting and physical principle,an integrated onboard model of propulsion system is established,which can calculate various performance parameters of the propulsion system in real time,and has high accuracy and real-time performance.Secondly,to improve the compatibility of optimization real-time performance and search accuracy,the online optimization control of aero-propulsion system is realized based on an improved trust region algorithm.Finally,by controlling the auxiliary intake valve,a good match between inlet and engine is realized,which solves the problems of intake flow reducing and total pressure recovery coefficient declining,and improves the installation performance of propulsion system.The simulation results indicate that,compared with the conventional independent engine control,the real-time integrated optimization method reduces the installed thrust loss by 3.61%under the design condition,and 4.58%under the off-design condition.Furthermore,the simulation on HIL(Hardware-In-theLoop)platform verifies the real-time performance of integrated optimization method.

文摘The exploration and development theory and technology of marine shale gas with shallow burial depth of 3500 m in South China has become mature after more than 10 years of practice.In order to continuously promote the exploration and development of shale gas in China,based on the research results of many scholars,combined with production practice,the main characteristics of marine shale gas in China and the main theory and technology of exploration and development are further summarized.The results show that:(1)The basic characteristics of marine shale gas in southern China are marine deep-water shelf deposition,and organic-rich shale is distributed continuously in a large area;The organic matter is stored in situ after high thermal maturity gas generation,and the gas content of shale is affected by late tectonic activity;The reservoir space is dominated by nano-scale pores,and the reservoir is super-tight and ultra-low permeability,which has no natural productivity without well stimulation;Bedding and natural fracture affect the productivity of shale gas wells;The mechanical properties of shale rock determine the effect of horizontal wells.In the early stage of well production,the production rate is high and the decline is fast,while in the middle and late stage,the rate is low but the production cycle is long.(2)Based on the above characteristics,the theory of“sweet spot”and“sweet interval”of shale gas and the theory of effective development of artificial gas reservoir are established,that is,the sedimentary and tectonic interaction forms the“sweet area”or“sweet spot”of marine shale gas.Gas productivity is determined by geological and engineering factors,so the“sweet spot”must be found to develop.By constructing artificial gas reservoir through“making an artificial high permeability area,and reconstructing a seepage field”,the effective development of ultra-tight and low permeability shale gas reservoirs can be realized.It is the most effective technique for shale gas development to accurately create“transparent geological body”of reservoirs based on geologyengineering integrated evaluation technology and establish artificial gas reservoir through multi-stage fracturing technology.(3)The overpressure area in the southern Sichuan Basin is the“sweet area”for shale gas development.The“sweet interval”of the lower Silurian Longmaxi Formation with a thickness of 3e5 m and high brittle-rich organic matter is the optimal“golden target”for horizontal wells.(4)The development leapfrog from the first generation to the second generation has been realized by the key technology of multi-stage fracturing of horizontal wells.The EUR per well of Upper Ordovician Wufeng Formation and Longmaxi Formation in southern Sichuan has increased from 0.5108 m3 in the initial stage to 1.0108 e1.2108 m3 at present with a buried depth of shallower than 3500 m.(5)The effective area favorable for shale gas development in southern Sichuan is 2.0104 km2,and it is estimated that the proven geological reserves of shale gas can reach 101012 m3.It is preliminarily predicted that the shale gas production in China will exceed 300108 m3 in 2025 and reach 400108 m3 in 2035.

文摘A new business concept that offers products and services in a different way of traditional product-sales businesses is getting more attention especially in manufacturing industries. This paper investigates how this new business by means of integration of products and services is achieved in Germany and Italy. In addition, it analyzes the differences according to the company sizes. The results include that this type of business is in many cases motivated by their focus on customers and often consists of physical products and their maintenance. The Italian companies, as opposed to the German ones, often design their physical products specifically for this type of offers. From the analysis based on the size difference, small companies are found to achieve specific design for this type of offers while owning physical products. There do not seem to be any established methods or tools developed to support the development of such offers and within such methods/tools there would be room for more adaptation in form of physical product design.

文摘The growing interest in the material flow(MF)theory has invoked much interesting research in recent years.Although the MF theory is relatively new,a review of the related literature from a historical perspective shows that MF theory represents a new stage of the evolutionary development of interrelated subjects such as Physical Distribution(PD),Logistics,and Supply Chain Management(SCM).The purpose of this paper is to provide a summative review of the evolution of the subjects of PD,Logistics,and SCM,and their new development,MF theory.The paper aims at tracing how concepts and findings in PD,Logistics,SCM,and MF have been developed and have evolved.The study shows that PD evolved to Logistics in middle of the 1980s;starting from the late 1990s,Logistics has evolved to SCM;and today PD,Logistics,and SCM can be considered to be under the umbrella provided by a new theory called MF theory.This paper points out that MF theory is a necessity to deal with the overwhelming complexity of material flow systems in the global economy of the twenty-first century.
