文摘The inversion of large sparse matrices poses a major challenge in geophysics,particularly in Bayesian seismic inversion,significantly limiting computational efficiency and practical applicability to largescale datasets.Existing dimensionality reduction methods have achieved partial success in addressing this issue.However,they remain limited in terms of the achievable degree of dimensionality reduction.An incremental deep dimensionality reduction approach is proposed herein to significantly reduce matrix size and is applied to Bayesian linearized inversion(BLI),a stochastic seismic inversion approach that heavily depends on large sparse matrices inversion.The proposed method first employs a linear transformation based on the discrete cosine transform(DCT)to extract the matrix's essential information and eliminate redundant components,forming the foundation of the dimensionality reduction framework.Subsequently,an innovative iterative DCT-based dimensionality reduction process is applied,where the reduction magnitude is carefully calibrated at each iteration to incrementally reduce dimensionality,thereby effectively eliminating matrix redundancy in depth.This process is referred to as the incremental discrete cosine transform(IDCT).Ultimately,a linear IDCT-based reduction operator is constructed and applied to the kernel matrix inversion in BLI,resulting in a more efficient BLI framework.The proposed method was evaluated through synthetic and field data tests and compared with conventional dimensionality reduction methods.The IDCT approach significantly improves the dimensionality reduction efficiency of the core inversion matrix while preserving inversion accuracy,demonstrating prominent advantages in solving Bayesian inverse problems more efficiently.

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With the rapid advancement of global socio-economy and mounting environmental and ecological risks,China faces challenges in ensuring its food security and sustainable development,which further affects global food trade and security.This study aims to identify the supply-demand match between cropland supply and food consumption and to evaluate sustainable cropland zoning in multiple scenarios and multidimensional assessments.This study uses ecological,environmental and socioeconomic data to quantify diverse food demand patterns into corresponding cropland demands,further mapping the spatio-temporal characteristics of China's cropland supply-demand matches.By utilizing shared socioeconomic pathways(SSPs),this study delineates multiple scenarios to determine the supply-demand of cropland across different Chinese regions from 2030 to 2050.On the basis of ecological,geographical and socioeconomic datasets,this study constructs a multidimensional and multiscenario framework for sustainable agricultural zoning from 2030 to 2050 and proposes a future sustainable agricultural development strategy for each region in different periods.The results indicate that between 2002 and 2022,there was a significant gap between cropland supply and demand.Moreover,an obvious spatial mismatch is observed between cropland supply and demand across various Chinese regions.From 2030 to 2050,there is a noticeable shift in the spatial distribution of cropland supply and demand,with the supply-demand match becoming more strained and varying considerably under different development scenarios.With significant differences between different development scenarios,different regions will have to adopt different development strategies at different periods.This study proposes a multiscenario and multidimensional simulation framework for future agricultural sustainable zoning,which aims to provide scientific insights and policy improvements to promote sustainable agricultural development.

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Fracture surface contour study is one of the important requirements for characterization and evaluation of the microstructure of rocks.Based on the improved cube covering method and the 3D contour digital reconstruction model,this study proposes a quantitative microstructure characterization method combining the roughness evaluation index and the 3D fractal dimension to study the change rule of the fracture surface morphology after blasting.This method was applied and validated in the study of the fracture microstructure of the rock after blasting.The results show that the fracture morphology characteristics of the 3D contour digital reconstruction model have good correlation with the changes of the blasting action.The undulation rate of the three-dimensional surface profile of the rock is more prone to dramatic rise and dramatic fall morphology.In terms of tilting trend,the tilting direction also shows gradual disorder,with the tilting angle increasing correspondingly.All the roughness evaluation indexes of the rock fissure surface after blasting show a linear and gradually increasing trend as the distance to the bursting center increases;the difference between the two-dimensional roughness evaluation indexes and the three-dimensional ones of the same micro-area rock samples also becomes increasingly larger,among which the three-dimensional fissure roughness coefficient JRC and the surface roughness ratio Rs display better correlation.Compared with the linear fitting formula of the power function relationship,the three-dimensional fractal dimension of the postblast fissure surface is fitted with the values of JRC and Rs,which renders higher correlation coefficients,and the degree of linear fitting of JRC to the three-dimensional fractal dimension is higher.The fractal characteristics of the blast-affected region form a unity with the three-dimensional roughness evaluation of the fissure surface.
