This study examines the large-scale circulation anomalies responsible for this extreme event.Analysis reveals that the lower-tropospheric cyclonic anomaly over SC plays a crucial role. This cyclonic anomaly consists of extratropical northeasterly anomalies to the north of SC and tropical southwesterly anomalies to the south. Both components were particularly intense during the 2022 first rainy season, contributing to the heavy rainfall in SC. Moreover,the lower-tropospheric cyclonic anomaly is enhanced by its counterpart in the upper troposphere, which is associated with a wave train propagating from the North Atlantic to East Asia across the mid-high latitudes of the Eurasian continent.Further analysis indicates that the extratropical wave train correlates with sea surface temperature anomalies(SSTAs) in the North Atlantic. Additionally, the SSTAs over the North Indian Ocean also play a role in enhancing the tropical southwesterlies in the lower troposphere. This study highlights the combined influence of tropical and extratropical circulation anomalies, offering a comprehensive understanding of the record-breaking rainfall.展开更多

文摘The recent upsurge in metro construction emphasizes the necessity of understanding the mechanical performance of metro shield tunnel subjected to the influence of ground fissures.In this study,a largescale experiment,in combination with numerical simulation,was conducted to investigate the influence of ground fissures on a metro shield tunnel.The results indicate that the lining contact pressure at the vault increases in the hanging wall while decreases in the footwall,resulting in a two-dimensional stress state of vertical shear and axial tension-compression,and simultaneous vertical dislocation and axial tilt for the segments around the ground fissure.In addition,the damage to curved bolts includes tensile yield,flexural yield,and shear twist,leading to obvious concrete lining damage,particularly at the vault,arch bottom,and hance,indicating that the joints in these positions are weak areas.The shield tunnel orthogonal to the ground fissure ultimately experiences shear failure,suggesting that the maximum actual dislocation of ground fissure that the structure can withstand is approximately 20 cm,and five segment rings in the hanging wall and six segment rings in the footwall also need to be reinforced.This study could provide a reference for metro design in ground fissure sites.

文摘Based on the analysis of typical lacustrine shale oil zones in China and their geological characteristics,this study elucidates the fundamental differences between the enrichment patterns of shale oil sweet spots and conventional oil and gas.The key parameters and evaluation methods for assessing the large-scale production potential of lacustrine shale oil are proposed.The results show that shale oil is a petroleum resource that exists in organic-rich shale formations,in other words,it is preserved in its source bed,following a different process of generation-accumulation-enrichment from conventional oil and gas.Thus,the concept of“reservoir”seems to be inapplicable to shale oil.In China,lacustrine shale oil is distributed widely,but the geological characteristics and sweet spots enrichment patterns of shale oil vary significantly in lacustrine basins where the water environment and the tectonic evolution and diagenetic transformation frameworks are distinct.The core of the evaluation of lacustrine shale oil is“sweet spot volume”.The key factors for evaluating the large-scale production of continental shale oil are the oil storage capacity,oil-bearing capacity and oil producing capacity.The key parameters for evaluating these capacities are total porosity,oil content,and free oil content,respectively.It is recommended to determine the total porosity of shale by combining helium porosity measurement with nuclear magnetic resonance(NMR)method,the oil content of key layers by using organic solvent extraction,NMR method and high pressure mercury intrusion methods,and the free oil content by using NMR fluid distribution secondary spectral stripping decomposition and logging.The research results contribute supplemental insights on continental shale oil deliverability in China,and provide a scientific basis for the rapid exploration and large-scale production of lacustrine shale oil.

文摘The titanium alloy strut serves as a key load-bearing component of aircraft landing gear,typically manufactured via forging.The friction condition has important influence on material flow and cavity filling during the forging process.Using the previously optimized shape and initial position of preform,the influence of the friction condition(friction factor m=0.1–0.3)on material flow and cavity filling was studied by numerical method with a shear friction model.A novel filling index was defined to reflect material flow into left and right flashes and zoom in on friction-induced results.The results indicate that the workpiece moves rigidly to the right direction,with the displacement decreasing as m increases.When m<0.18,the underfilling defect will occur in the left side of strut forging,while overflow occurs in the right forging die cavity.By combining the filling index and analyses of material flow and filling status,a reasonable friction factor interval of m=0.21–0.24 can be determined.Within this interval,the cavity filling behavior demonstrates robustness,with friction fluctuations exerting minimal influence.

文摘Based on questionnaire surveys and field interviews conducted with various types of agricultural production organizations across five districts and four counties in Daqing City,this study combines relevant theoretical frameworks to systematically examine the evolution,performance,and influencing factors of governance mechanisms within these organizations.Using both quantitative and inductive analytical methods,the paper proposes innovative designs and supporting measures for improving governance mechanisms.The findings reveal that,amid large-scale farmland circulation,the governance mechanisms of agricultural production organizations in Daqing City are evolving from traditional to modern structures.However,challenges remain in areas such as decision-making efficiency,benefit distribution,and supervision mechanisms.In response,this study proposes innovative governance designs focusing on decision-making processes,profit-sharing mechanisms,and risk prevention.Corresponding policy recommendations are also provided to support the sustainable development of agricultural modernization in China.
文摘Standardized datasets are foundational to healthcare informatization by enhancing data quality and unleashing the value of data elements.Using bibliometrics and content analysis,this study examines China's healthcare dataset standards from 2011 to 2025.It analyzes their evolution across types,applications,institutions,and themes,highlighting key achievements including substantial growth in quantity,optimized typology,expansion into innovative application scenarios such as health decision support,and broadened institutional involvement.The study also identifies critical challenges,including imbalanced development,insufficient quality control,and a lack of essential metadata—such as authoritative data element mappings and privacy annotations—which hampers the delivery of intelligent services.To address these challenges,the study proposes a multi-faceted strategy focused on optimizing the standard system's architecture,enhancing quality and implementation,and advancing both data governance—through authoritative tracing and privacy protection—and intelligent service provision.These strategies aim to promote the application of dataset standards,thereby fostering and securing the development of new productive forces in healthcare.

文摘When dealing with imbalanced datasets,the traditional support vectormachine(SVM)tends to produce a classification hyperplane that is biased towards the majority class,which exhibits poor robustness.This paper proposes a high-performance classification algorithm specifically designed for imbalanced datasets.The proposed method first uses a biased second-order cone programming support vectormachine(B-SOCP-SVM)to identify the support vectors(SVs)and non-support vectors(NSVs)in the imbalanced data.Then,it applies the synthetic minority over-sampling technique(SV-SMOTE)to oversample the support vectors of the minority class and uses the random under-sampling technique(NSV-RUS)multiple times to undersample the non-support vectors of the majority class.Combining the above-obtained minority class data set withmultiple majority class datasets can obtainmultiple new balanced data sets.Finally,SOCP-SVM is used to classify each data set,and the final result is obtained through the integrated algorithm.Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method performs excellently on imbalanced datasets.

文摘Formalizing complex processes and phenomena of a real-world problem may require a large number of variables and constraints,resulting in what is termed a large-scale optimization problem.Nowadays,such large-scale optimization problems are solved using computing machines,leading to an enormous computational time being required,which may delay deriving timely solutions.Decomposition methods,which partition a large-scale optimization problem into lower-dimensional subproblems,represent a key approach to addressing time-efficiency issues.There has been significant progress in both applied mathematics and emerging artificial intelligence approaches on this front.This work aims at providing an overview of the decomposition methods from both the mathematics and computer science points of view.We also remark on the state-of-the-art developments and recent applications of the decomposition methods,and discuss the future research and development perspectives.

文摘It has been argued that the human brain,as an information-processing machine,operates near a phase transition point in a non-equilibrium state,where it violates detailed balance leading to entropy production.Thus,the assessment of irreversibility in brain networks can provide valuable insights into their non-equilibrium properties.In this study,we utilized an open-source whole-brain functional magnetic resonance imaging(fMRI)dataset from both resting and task states to evaluate the irreversibility of large-scale human brain networks.Our analysis revealed that the brain networks exhibited significant irreversibility,violating detailed balance,and generating entropy.Notably,both physical and cognitive tasks increased the extent of this violation compared to the resting state.Regardless of the state(rest or task),interactions between pairs of brain regions were the primary contributors to this irreversibility.Moreover,we observed that as global synchrony increased within brain networks,so did irreversibility.The first derivative of irreversibility with respect to synchronization peaked near the phase transition point,characterized by the moderate mean synchronization and maximized synchronization entropy of blood oxygenation level-dependent(BOLD)signals.These findings deepen our understanding of the non-equilibrium dynamics of large-scale brain networks,particularly in relation to their phase transition behaviors,and may have potential clinical applications for brain disorders.

文摘Offshore wind power plays a crucial role in energy strategies.The results of traditional small-scale physical models may be unreliable when extrapolated to large field scales.This study addressed this limitation by conducting large-scale(1:13)experiments to investigate the scour hole pattern and equilibrium scour depth around both slender and large monopiles under irregular waves.The experiments adopted KeuleganeCarpenter number(NKC)values from 1.01 to 8.89 and diffraction parameter(D/L,where D is the diameter of the monopile,and L is the wave length)values from 0.016 to 0.056.The results showed that changes in the maximum scour location and scour hole shape around a slender monopile were associated with NKC,with differences observed between irregular and regular waves.Improving the calculation of NKC enhanced the accuracy of existing scour formulae under irregular waves.The maximum scour locations around a large monopile were consistently found on both sides,regardless of NKC and D/L,but the scour hole topography was influenced by both parameters.Notably,the scour range around a large monopile was at least as large as the monopile diameter.

文摘In 2022, South China(SC) experienced record-breaking rainfall during its first rainy season, causing severe socioeconomic losses. This study examines the large-scale circulation anomalies responsible for this extreme event.Analysis reveals that the lower-tropospheric cyclonic anomaly over SC plays a crucial role. This cyclonic anomaly consists of extratropical northeasterly anomalies to the north of SC and tropical southwesterly anomalies to the south. Both components were particularly intense during the 2022 first rainy season, contributing to the heavy rainfall in SC. Moreover,the lower-tropospheric cyclonic anomaly is enhanced by its counterpart in the upper troposphere, which is associated with a wave train propagating from the North Atlantic to East Asia across the mid-high latitudes of the Eurasian continent.Further analysis indicates that the extratropical wave train correlates with sea surface temperature anomalies(SSTAs) in the North Atlantic. Additionally, the SSTAs over the North Indian Ocean also play a role in enhancing the tropical southwesterlies in the lower troposphere. This study highlights the combined influence of tropical and extratropical circulation anomalies, offering a comprehensive understanding of the record-breaking rainfall.

文摘Detecting faces under occlusion remains a significant challenge in computer vision due to variations caused by masks,sunglasses,and other obstructions.Addressing this issue is crucial for applications such as surveillance,biometric authentication,and human-computer interaction.This paper provides a comprehensive review of face detection techniques developed to handle occluded faces.Studies are categorized into four main approaches:feature-based,machine learning-based,deep learning-based,and hybrid methods.We analyzed state-of-the-art studies within each category,examining their methodologies,strengths,and limitations based on widely used benchmark datasets,highlighting their adaptability to partial and severe occlusions.The review also identifies key challenges,including dataset diversity,model generalization,and computational efficiency.Our findings reveal that deep learning methods dominate recent studies,benefiting from their ability to extract hierarchical features and handle complex occlusion patterns.More recently,researchers have increasingly explored Transformer-based architectures,such as Vision Transformer(ViT)and Swin Transformer,to further improve detection robustness under challenging occlusion scenarios.In addition,hybrid approaches,which aim to combine traditional andmodern techniques,are emerging as a promising direction for improving robustness.This review provides valuable insights for researchers aiming to develop more robust face detection systems and for practitioners seeking to deploy reliable solutions in real-world,occlusionprone environments.Further improvements and the proposal of broader datasets are required to developmore scalable,robust,and efficient models that can handle complex occlusions in real-world scenarios.
文摘This study employs deformation monitoring data acquired during the construction of the Haoji railway large-scale bridge to investigate the displacement behavior of the subgrades,catenary columns,and tracks.Emphasis is placed on data acquisition and processing methods using total stations and automated monitoring systems.Through a comprehensive analysis of lateral,longitudinal,and vertical displacement data from 26 subgrade monitoring points,catenary columns,and track sections,this research evaluates how construction activities influence railway structures.The results show that displacement variations in the subgrades,catenary columns,and tracks remained within the established alert thresholds,exhibiting stable deformation trends and indicating that any adverse environmental impact was effectively contained.Furthermore,this paper proposes an early warning mechanism based on an automated monitoring system,which can promptly detect abnormal deformations and initiate emergency response procedures,thereby ensuring the safe operation of the railway.The integration of big data analysis and deformation prediction models offers a practical foundation for future safety management in railway construction.
