However,...Maritime radar and automatic identification systems (AIS), which are essential auxiliary equipment for navigation safety in the shipping industry, have played significant roles in maritime safety supervision. However, in practical applications, the information obtained by a single device is limited, and it is necessary to integrate the information of maritime radar and AIS messages to achieve better recognition effects. In this study, the D-S evidence theory is used to fusion the two kinds of heterogeneous information: maritime radar images and AIS messages. Firstly, the radar image and AIS message are processed to get the targets of interest in the same coordinate system. Then, the coordinate position and heading of targets are chosen as the indicators for judging target similarity. Finally, a piece of D-S evidence theory based on the information fusion method is proposed to match the radar target and the AIS target of the same ship. Particularly, the effectiveness of the proposed method has been validated and evaluated through several experiments, which proves that such a method is practical in maritime safety supervision.展开更多

We introduce an alternative urban growth model specifically designed to incorporate spatial heterogeneity in urban growth models. Instead of applying a single method to the entire study area, we segment the study area into different regions and apply targeted algorithms in each subregion. The working hypothesis is that the integration of appropriately selected region-specific models will outperform a globally applied model as it will incorporate further spatial heterogeneity. We examine urban land use changes in Denver, Colorado. Two land use maps from different time snapshots (1977 and 1997) are used to detect the urban land use changes, and 23 explanatory factors are produced to model urbanization. The proposed Spatially Heterogeneous Expert Based (SHEB) model tested decision trees as the underlying modeling algorithm, applying them in different subregions. In this paper the segmentation tested is the division of the entire area into interior and exterior urban areas. Interior urban areas are those situated within dense urbanized structures, while exterior urban areas are outside of these structures. Obtained results on this model regionalization technique indicate that targeted local models produce improved results in terms of Kappa, accuracy percentage and multi-scale performance. The model superiority is also confirmed by model pairwise comparisons using t-tests. The segmentation criterion of interior/exterior selection may not only capture specific characteristics on spatial and morphological properties, but also socioeconomic factors which may implicitly be present in these spatial representations. The usage of interior and exterior subregions in the present study acts as a proof of concept. Other spatial heterogeneity indicators, for example landscape, socioeconomic and political boundaries could act as the basis for improved local segmentations.展开更多

文摘Although 316L stainless steel(SS316L)exhibits favorable ductility and toughness,its limited strength restricts its applicability.This study addressed this limitation by preparing a series of SS316L-xTC4 alloys(where x indicates Ti6Al4V(TC4)contents of 0.5 wt%,1 wt%,2 wt%,and 4 wt%)with equiaxed grains,ultrafine grains,and heterogeneous structures using in-situ alloying via laser powder bed fusion.The Ti,Al,and V in the TC4 alloy were shown to stabilize and promote the formation of theαphase,which is stronger than theγphase in typical SS316L.Furthermore,these solute elements readily formed nanoparticles with impurities,such as C and O,to increase the nucleation rate and thereby achieve grain refinement.This resulted in the formation of ultrafine grains predominantly within theαphase,where the solute elements were primarily distributed.The formation of theαphase also impeded the growth of theγphase;coupled with the effects of the nanoparticles,this also significantly reduced the grain size in theγphase.Notably,the SS316L-2TC4 alloy exhibited fully equiaxed grains,and the coexistence of theαandγphases as well as ultrafine and coarse grains formed heterogeneous grain and dual-phase structures within.The synergistic effects of equiaxed grains,ultrafine grains,and heterostructures produced an SS316L alloy that exhibited both excellent strength and elongation.

文摘The complex non-equilibrium solidification effects of the laser powder bed fusion(LPBF)combined with the high solubility of rare-earth(RE)elements,provide a new advanced powder metallurgy process for Mg RE alloys with outstanding mechanical performances.However,its creep mechanism has not been revealed yet.The present study systematically investigates and evaluates the high-temperature creep mechanism of LPBFed WE43 alloy under varying temperatures and applied stress conditions.In addition,it thoroughly elucidates the interactions and evolution mechanisms between precipitates and disloca-tions during the creep process.Subject to residual stresses and thermal cycling,theβphase is formed in the form of“precipitation chains”(PCs)within the grains.The metastable phasesβ″,β′,andβ_(1) in-situ precipitate between the PCs.The creep resistance of the(LPBFed)WE43 alloy is governed by the evolution of precipitates and their interactions with dislocations during the creep.Under creep condi-tions at 200℃,a large number of<c+a>anddislocations undergo climb and cross-slip behaviors within the grains.During the climb and cross-slip of dislocations,the Orowan strengthening effect ofβ″,the cutting mechanisms ofβ′andβ_(1) phases relative to dislocations,and the dislocation barriers formed by theβphase arrays collectively impart excellent creep resistance to the WE43 alloy.As creep time progresses,dislocations accumulate within the grains,and theβandβ_(1) phases promote the forma-tion of subgrain boundaries,further triggering discontinuous dynamic recrystallization behaviors during the creep process.Furthermore,influenced by the directional diffusion of elements,precipitates dynami-cally form around the grain boundaries of recrystallized grains,thereby enhancing the resistance to grain boundary sliding.When the creep temperature increases to 250℃ or 300℃,a large number of<c+a>dislocations,accompanied by the dissolution of metastable phases and elemental re-diffusion,transform during the creep process into stacking faults(SFs).SFs not only exhibit high thermal stability but also act as effective dislocation barriers at high temperatures through lattice mismatch mechanisms.However,under high-temperature conditions,thermal activation leads to the dissolution of unstable metastable phases,promoting rapid coarsening and transformation of precipitates into various morphologies ofβphases,thereby causing a catastrophic decline in creep performance.At the same time,high tempera-tures further exacerbate elemental diffusion,resulting in precipitate-free zones near grain boundaries,thereby inducing crack initiation.Therefore,the creep resistance of as-deposited alloys decreases signif-icantly at higher temperatures.Building on this,the future development trends of LPBFed WE43 alloys are envisioned,where homogenizing heterostructures or introducing high aspect ratio precipitates and high-density SFs prior to creep can be regarded as a promising approach for enhancing creep resistance in LPBFed WE43 alloys.

文摘Maritime radar and automatic identification systems (AIS), which are essential auxiliary equipment for navigation safety in the shipping industry, have played significant roles in maritime safety supervision. However, in practical applications, the information obtained by a single device is limited, and it is necessary to integrate the information of maritime radar and AIS messages to achieve better recognition effects. In this study, the D-S evidence theory is used to fusion the two kinds of heterogeneous information: maritime radar images and AIS messages. Firstly, the radar image and AIS message are processed to get the targets of interest in the same coordinate system. Then, the coordinate position and heading of targets are chosen as the indicators for judging target similarity. Finally, a piece of D-S evidence theory based on the information fusion method is proposed to match the radar target and the AIS target of the same ship. Particularly, the effectiveness of the proposed method has been validated and evaluated through several experiments, which proves that such a method is practical in maritime safety supervision.

文摘Zinc(Zn)is considered a promising biodegradable metal for implant applications due to its appropriate degradability and favorable osteogenesis properties.In this work,laser powder bed fusion(LPBF)additive manufacturing was employed to fabricate pure Zn with a heterogeneous microstructure and exceptional strength-ductility synergy.An optimized processing window of LPBF was established for printing Zn samples with relative densities greater than 99%using a laser power range of 80∼90 W and a scanning speed of 900 mm s−1.The Zn sample printed with a power of 80 W at a speed of 900 mm s−1 exhibited a hierarchical heterogeneous microstructure consisting of millimeter-scale molten pool boundaries,micrometer-scale bimodal grains,and nanometer-scale pre-existing dislocations,due to rapid cooling rates and significant thermal gradients formed in the molten pools.The printed sample exhibited the highest ductility of∼12.1%among all reported LPBF-printed pure Zn to date with appreciable ultimate tensile strength(∼128.7 MPa).Such superior strength-ductility synergy can be attributed to the presence of multiple deformation mechanisms that are primarily governed by heterogeneous deformation-induced hardening resulting from the alternative arrangement of bimodal Zn grains with pre-existing dislocations.Additionally,continuous strain hardening was facilitated through the interactions between deformation twins,grains and dislocations as strain accumulated,further contributing to the superior strength-ductility synergy.These findings provide valuable insights into the deformation behavior and mechanisms underlying exceptional mechanical properties of LPBF-printed Zn and its alloys for implant applications.
文摘Urbanization changes have been widely examined and numerous urban growth models have been proposed. We introduce an alternative urban growth model specifically designed to incorporate spatial heterogeneity in urban growth models. Instead of applying a single method to the entire study area, we segment the study area into different regions and apply targeted algorithms in each subregion. The working hypothesis is that the integration of appropriately selected region-specific models will outperform a globally applied model as it will incorporate further spatial heterogeneity. We examine urban land use changes in Denver, Colorado. Two land use maps from different time snapshots (1977 and 1997) are used to detect the urban land use changes, and 23 explanatory factors are produced to model urbanization. The proposed Spatially Heterogeneous Expert Based (SHEB) model tested decision trees as the underlying modeling algorithm, applying them in different subregions. In this paper the segmentation tested is the division of the entire area into interior and exterior urban areas. Interior urban areas are those situated within dense urbanized structures, while exterior urban areas are outside of these structures. Obtained results on this model regionalization technique indicate that targeted local models produce improved results in terms of Kappa, accuracy percentage and multi-scale performance. The model superiority is also confirmed by model pairwise comparisons using t-tests. The segmentation criterion of interior/exterior selection may not only capture specific characteristics on spatial and morphological properties, but also socioeconomic factors which may implicitly be present in these spatial representations. The usage of interior and exterior subregions in the present study acts as a proof of concept. Other spatial heterogeneity indicators, for example landscape, socioeconomic and political boundaries could act as the basis for improved local segmentations.

文摘Laser powder bed fusion(L-PBF)of Sc/Zr-modified Al-based alloys has recently become a promising method for developing a new generation of high-performance Al alloys.To clarify the modification roles of Sc/Zr elements,an Al–4.66Mg–0.48Mn–0.72Sc–0.33Zr(wt.%)alloy was processed using L-PBF.The effect of the local solidification condition of the molten pool on the precipitation behavior of primary Al_(3)(Sc,Zr)was analyzed based on time-dependent nucleation theory.It was found that primary Al_(3)(Sc,Zr)inevitably precipitated at the fusion boundary,while its precipitation could be effectively suppressed in the inner region of the molten pool.This subsequently induced the formation of a heterogeneousα-Al matrix.After direct aging,the heredity of solidification microstructure introduced heterogeneous secondary Al_(3)(Sc,Zr)precipitates withinα-Al matrix.Owing to the inverse relationship between grain boundary strengthening and precipitation strengthening,the direct-aged sample with dual heterogeneous structures exhibited reduced mechanical heterogeneity,resulting in lowered hetero-deformation-induced hardening.The low strain-hardening capability in the direct-aged sample promoted necking instability while inducing a large Lüders elongation,which effectively improved the tensile ductility.

文摘The problem of distributed fusion and random observation loss for mobile sensor networks is investigated herein.In view of the fact that the measured values,sampling frequency and noise of various sensors are different,the observation model of a heterogeneous network is constructed.A binary random variable is introduced to describe the drop of observation component and the topology switching problem caused by complete observation loss is also considered.A cubature information filtering algorithm is adopted to design local filters for each observer to suppress the negative effects of measurement noise.To derive a consistent and accurate estimation result,a novel weighted average consensus-based filtering approach is put forward.For the sensor that suffers from observation loss,its local prediction information vector is fused with the information contribution vectors of the neighbors to obtain the local estimation.Then the consensus weight matrix is designed for consensus-based distributed collaborative information fusion.The boundness of the estimation errors is proved by employing the stochastic stability theory.In the end,two numerical examples are offered to assert the validity of the presented method.

文摘The rapid urbanization and structural imbalances in Chinese megacities have exacerbated the housing supplydemand mismatch,creating an urgent need for fine-scale diagnostic tools.This study addresses this critical gap by developing the Housing Contradiction Evaluation Weighted Index(HCEWI)model,making three key contributions to high-resolution housing monitoring.First,we establish a tripartite theoretical framework integrating dynamic population pressure(PPI),housing supply potential(HSI),and functional diversity(HHI).The PPI innovatively combines mobile signaling data with principal component analysis to capture real-time commuting patterns,while the HSI introduces a novel dual-criteria system based on Local Climate Zones(LCZ),weighted by building density and residential function ratio.Second,we develop a spatiotemporal coupling architecture featuring an entropy-weighted dynamic integration mechanism with self-correcting modules,demonstrating robust performance against data noise.Third,our 25-month longitudinal analysis in Shenzhen reveals significant findings,including persistent bipolar clustering patterns,contrasting volatility between peripheral and core areas,and seasonal policy responsiveness.Methodologically,we advance urban diagnostics through 500-meter grid monthly monitoring and process-oriented temporal operators that reveal“tentacle-like”spatial restructuring along transit corridors.Our findings provide a replicable framework for precision housing governance and demonstrate the transformative potential of mobile signaling data in implementing China’s“city-specific policy”approach.We further propose targeted intervention strategies,including balance regulation for high-contradiction zones,Transit-Oriented Development(TOD)activation for low-contradiction clusters,and dynamic land conversion mechanisms for transitional areas.
