On the basis of the derived slope constraints of knots of a non-overshooting and non-undershooting cubic interpolant, together with ＂not-a-knot＂ conditions the cubic spline interpolants are constructed by replacing the requirement for equal second order derivatives at every knot with Brodlie＇ s derivative formula. Analysis and simulation experiments show that this approach can effectively avoid generating new extrema, shifting or exaggerating the existing ones in a signal, and thus significantly improve the decomposition performance of EMD.展开更多

The TCM has been successfully applied over the entire convective envelopes, including the convective unstable zone and the overshooting regions. We find that the convective motions become progressively stronger when the stellar models are located farther up along the Hayashi line. In the convective unstable zone, we find that the turbulent correlations are proportional to functions of a common factor （V - V^d）T, which explains similar distributions in those correlations. For the TCM we find that if the obtained stellar temperature structure is close to that of the mixing length theory （MLT）, the convective motion will have a much larger velocity and thus be more violent. However, if the turbulent velocity is adjusted to be close to that of the MLT, the superadiabatic convection zone would be much more extended inward, which would lead to a lower effective temperature of the stellar model. For the overshooting distance, we find that the e-folding lengths of the turbulent kinetic energy k in both the top and bottom overshooting regions decrease as the stellar model is progressively located farther up along the Hayashi line, but both the extents of the decrease are not obvious. The overshooting distances of the turbulent correlation /u＇rT＂ are almost the same for the different stellar models with the same set of TCM parameters. For the decay modes of the kinetic energy k, we find that they are very similar for different stellar models based on the same set of TCM parameters, and there is a nearly linear relationship between lg k and In P for different stellar models. When Cs or α increases while the other parameters are fixed, the obtained linearly decaying distance will become longer.展开更多

Based on the level of OT activity,the samples were divided into OT and non-OT cases or high-activity-OT（HA-OT） and low-activity-OT（LA-OT） cases. The differences in large-scale environmental variables between OT（HA-OT） and non-OT（LA-OT） cases were examined 12 hours prior to the OT occurrence. Statistical analysis showed that environmental differences did exist between the OT and non-OT cases. The OTs were more skewed towards the early stage of the TC life cycle, and mostly concentrated in low latitudes.Meanwhile, a sufficiently deep warm-water layer, large temperature difference between the upper- and lower-level troposphere, large humidity at the middle and upper levels, and large atmospheric instability, were favorable for OT occurrence.The differences in large-scale environmental characteristics between HA-OTs and LA-OTs were not as significant as those between OTs and non-OTs, but the HA-OT samples tended to occur when the vertical shear was weak and the TC intensity was low. Finally, statistical models were designed to predict the OT and HA-OT. When at least three OT（HA-OT） predictor thresholds were satisfied, the Peirce skill score reached a maximum value of 0.49（0.30）.展开更多

And the major driving forces of EFc and EFp were analyzed by STIRPAT model. Both EFc and EFp showed increasing trends in 1986-2006, accompanied by decreasing ecological deficits but expanding ecological overshoots. Population （P）, GDP per capita （A1）, quadratic term of GDP per capita （A2）, urbanization （Tα1）, and quadratic term of urbanization （Ta2） were important influencing factors of EFc, among which Tα2 and Tα1 were the most dominate driving forces of EFc. A1, A2 and Tα2 were important influencing factors of EFp, among which A2 and A1 were the most dominate driving forces of EFp. In 1986-2006, the classical Environmental Kuznets Curve hypothesis did not exist between A2 and EF （both EFc and EFp）, but did between Tα2 and EF. The results indicate that enhancing the urbanization process and diversifying economic sources is one of the most effective ways to reduce the environmental impact of West Jilin Province. Moreover, importance should be attached to improve the eco-efficiency of resource exploitation and consumption.展开更多

However, the optimized methods through simulation or experiment are actually trial and error, and they cannot indicate the precise structural parameters of the valve plate transition region. In this study, a new design method for the transition region of valve plate based on the matching of flow area and reduction of transient reverse flow was proposed, and with which a valve plate was designed. Then, the impact of the flow ripple in the discharge line of an axial piston pump and the pressure overshoot and undershoot in the piston chamber on hydraulic and structural noise for axial piston pump is discussed. The noise reduction effect of the axial piston pump with this valve plate was analyzed by adopting a flow characteristic simulation model. Finally, the results showed that the application of this design method could contribute much to the reduction of the flow ripple and elimination of the pressure overshoot and undershoot. As a consequence, the method can be used in the design of a low-noise open circuit axial piston pump.展开更多

A modification has been proposed in IMC-PID tuning rule for the improved disturbance rejection. For the modified IMC-PID tuning rule, a method has been developed to obtain the IMC-PID setting in closed-loop mode without acquiring detailed information of the process. The proposed method is based on the closed-loop step set point experiment using a proportional only controller with gain K_(c0). It is the direct approach to find the PID controller setting similar to classical Ziegler-Nichols closed-loop method. Based on simulations of a wide range of first-order with delay processes, a simple correlation has been derived to obtain the modified IMC-PID controller settings from closed-loop experiment. In this method, controller gain is a function of the overshoot obtained in the closed loop set point experiment. The integral and derivative time is mainly a function of the time to reach the first peak(overshoot). Simulation has been conducted for the broad class of processes and the controllers were tuned to have the same degree of robustness by measuring the maximum sensitivity, Ms, in order to obtain a reasonable comparison. The PID controller settings obtained in the proposed tuning method show better performance and robustness with other two-step tuning methods for the broad class of processes. It has also been applied to temperature control loop in distillation column model. The result has been compared to the open loop tuning method where it gives robust and fast response.展开更多

This paper aims to analyze the housing price dynamics after an unanticipated economic shock, which was believed to have similar properties with the backward-looking expecta- tion models. The analysis of the housing price dynamics is based on the cobweb model with a simple user cost affected demand and a stock-flow supply assumption. Several nth- order delay rational difference equations are set up to illustrate the properties of housing dynamics phenomena, such as the equilibrium or oscillations, overshoot or undershoot and convergent or divergent, for a kind of heterogeneous backward-looking expectation models. The results show that demand elasticity is less than supply elasticity is not a necessary condition for the occurrence of oscillation. The housing price dynamics will vary substantially with the heterogeneous backward-looking expectation assumption and some other endogenous factors.展开更多

For instance, most filters are troubled when they are put to use on meteorological fields with sharp gradient or with steep slope and consequently, the recurrence of undesirable numerical high-frequent oscillations (overshooting and undershooting) seems to be inevitable, Particularly when diffusion or filter is implemented in limited-area models, serious side effects on the limited-area boundaries often contaminate the modeling results. The merits and demerits are surveyed for commonly used diffusion or filter operations. A new type of monotonic digit filter is suggested to prevent overshooting and undershooting (due to the computational shock and Gibbs oscillation) nearby the discontinuous or nearly discontinuous locations when the filtering process was carried out, meanwhile the high selective property of damping is retained. Moreover, the new filter is designed on the implicit framework so that it can easily handle the problem of boundary diminishing in limited-area modeling.展开更多

文摘To suppress the overshoots and undershoots in the envelope fitting for empirical mode decomposition （EMD）, an alternative cubic spline interpolation method without overshooting and undershooting is proposed. On the basis of the derived slope constraints of knots of a non-overshooting and non-undershooting cubic interpolant, together with ＂not-a-knot＂ conditions the cubic spline interpolants are constructed by replacing the requirement for equal second order derivatives at every knot with Brodlie＇ s derivative formula. Analysis and simulation experiments show that this approach can effectively avoid generating new extrema, shifting or exaggerating the existing ones in a signal, and thus significantly improve the decomposition performance of EMD.

文摘Based on the turbulent convection model （TCM） of Li ＆ Yang, we have studied the characteristics of turbulent convection in the envelopes of 2 and 5M⊙ stars at the red giant branch and asymptotic giant branch phases. The TCM has been successfully applied over the entire convective envelopes, including the convective unstable zone and the overshooting regions. We find that the convective motions become progressively stronger when the stellar models are located farther up along the Hayashi line. In the convective unstable zone, we find that the turbulent correlations are proportional to functions of a common factor （V - V^d）T, which explains similar distributions in those correlations. For the TCM we find that if the obtained stellar temperature structure is close to that of the mixing length theory （MLT）, the convective motion will have a much larger velocity and thus be more violent. However, if the turbulent velocity is adjusted to be close to that of the MLT, the superadiabatic convection zone would be much more extended inward, which would lead to a lower effective temperature of the stellar model. For the overshooting distance, we find that the e-folding lengths of the turbulent kinetic energy k in both the top and bottom overshooting regions decrease as the stellar model is progressively located farther up along the Hayashi line, but both the extents of the decrease are not obvious. The overshooting distances of the turbulent correlation /u＇rT＂ are almost the same for the different stellar models with the same set of TCM parameters. For the decay modes of the kinetic energy k, we find that they are very similar for different stellar models based on the same set of TCM parameters, and there is a nearly linear relationship between lg k and In P for different stellar models. When Cs or α increases while the other parameters are fixed, the obtained linearly decaying distance will become longer.

文摘Based on Multifunctional Transport Satellite data and the infrared window-texture detection algorithm, the level of overshooting top（OT） activity within a tropical cyclone（TC）, which is defined as the hourly mean number of OT occurrence,was statistically investigated in the western North Pacific basin for the period 2005–12. Based on the level of OT activity,the samples were divided into OT and non-OT cases or high-activity-OT（HA-OT） and low-activity-OT（LA-OT） cases. The differences in large-scale environmental variables between OT（HA-OT） and non-OT（LA-OT） cases were examined 12 hours prior to the OT occurrence. Statistical analysis showed that environmental differences did exist between the OT and non-OT cases. The OTs were more skewed towards the early stage of the TC life cycle, and mostly concentrated in low latitudes.Meanwhile, a sufficiently deep warm-water layer, large temperature difference between the upper- and lower-level troposphere, large humidity at the middle and upper levels, and large atmospheric instability, were favorable for OT occurrence.The differences in large-scale environmental characteristics between HA-OTs and LA-OTs were not as significant as those between OTs and non-OTs, but the HA-OT samples tended to occur when the vertical shear was weak and the TC intensity was low. Finally, statistical models were designed to predict the OT and HA-OT. When at least three OT（HA-OT） predictor thresholds were satisfied, the Peirce skill score reached a maximum value of 0.49（0.30）.

文摘The environmental impact caused by local people （ecological footprint of consumption, EFc） and the actual environmental impact that the ecosystem burdens （ecological footprint of production, EFp） in West Jilin Province, Northeast China from 1986 to 2006 were evaluated by using ecological footprint （EF） method. And the major driving forces of EFc and EFp were analyzed by STIRPAT model. Both EFc and EFp showed increasing trends in 1986-2006, accompanied by decreasing ecological deficits but expanding ecological overshoots. Population （P）, GDP per capita （A1）, quadratic term of GDP per capita （A2）, urbanization （Tα1）, and quadratic term of urbanization （Ta2） were important influencing factors of EFc, among which Tα2 and Tα1 were the most dominate driving forces of EFc. A1, A2 and Tα2 were important influencing factors of EFp, among which A2 and A1 were the most dominate driving forces of EFp. In 1986-2006, the classical Environmental Kuznets Curve hypothesis did not exist between A2 and EF （both EFc and EFp）, but did between Tα2 and EF. The results indicate that enhancing the urbanization process and diversifying economic sources is one of the most effective ways to reduce the environmental impact of West Jilin Province. Moreover, importance should be attached to improve the eco-efficiency of resource exploitation and consumption.

文摘The optimization of the valve plate transition region is an important way of reducing the noise emission for an axial piston pump. However, the optimized methods through simulation or experiment are actually trial and error, and they cannot indicate the precise structural parameters of the valve plate transition region. In this study, a new design method for the transition region of valve plate based on the matching of flow area and reduction of transient reverse flow was proposed, and with which a valve plate was designed. Then, the impact of the flow ripple in the discharge line of an axial piston pump and the pressure overshoot and undershoot in the piston chamber on hydraulic and structural noise for axial piston pump is discussed. The noise reduction effect of the axial piston pump with this valve plate was analyzed by adopting a flow characteristic simulation model. Finally, the results showed that the application of this design method could contribute much to the reduction of the flow ripple and elimination of the pressure overshoot and undershoot. As a consequence, the method can be used in the design of a low-noise open circuit axial piston pump.

文摘It is well-known that the IMC-PID controller tuning gives fast and improved set point response but slow disturbance rejection. A modification has been proposed in IMC-PID tuning rule for the improved disturbance rejection. For the modified IMC-PID tuning rule, a method has been developed to obtain the IMC-PID setting in closed-loop mode without acquiring detailed information of the process. The proposed method is based on the closed-loop step set point experiment using a proportional only controller with gain K_(c0). It is the direct approach to find the PID controller setting similar to classical Ziegler-Nichols closed-loop method. Based on simulations of a wide range of first-order with delay processes, a simple correlation has been derived to obtain the modified IMC-PID controller settings from closed-loop experiment. In this method, controller gain is a function of the overshoot obtained in the closed loop set point experiment. The integral and derivative time is mainly a function of the time to reach the first peak(overshoot). Simulation has been conducted for the broad class of processes and the controllers were tuned to have the same degree of robustness by measuring the maximum sensitivity, Ms, in order to obtain a reasonable comparison. The PID controller settings obtained in the proposed tuning method show better performance and robustness with other two-step tuning methods for the broad class of processes. It has also been applied to temperature control loop in distillation column model. The result has been compared to the open loop tuning method where it gives robust and fast response.

文摘A 30 MHz voltage-mode controlled buck converter with fast transient responses is presented.An improved differential difference amplifier(DDA)-based Type-III compensator is proposed to reduce the settling times of the converter during load transients,and to achieve near-optimal transient responses with simple PWM control only.Moreover,a hybrid scheme using a digital linear regulator with automatic transient detection and seamless loop transition is proposed to further improve the transient responses.By monitoring the output voltage of the compensator instead of the output voltage of the converter,the proposed hybrid scheme can reduce undershoot and overshoot effectively with good noise immunity and without interrupting the PWM loop.The converter was fabricated in a 0.13μm standard CMOS process using 3.3 V devices.With an input voltage of 3.3 V,the measured peak efficiencies at the output voltages of 2.4,1.8,and 1.2 V are 90.7%,88%,and 83.6%,respectively.With a load step of 1.25 A and rise and fall times of 2 ns,the measured 1%settling times were 220 and 230 ns,with undershoot and overshoot with PWM control of 72 and 76 mV,respectively.They were further reduced to 36 and 38 mV by using the proposed hybrid scheme,and 1%settling times were also reduced to 125 ns.

Theoretical analysis is carried out, the analysis is verified by simulation, and a prototype of Ka band 25.28~26.08 GHz dual nonlinear branch linearizer is achieved. It indicates that the corrected amplitude overshoot is less than 0.5 dB, the C/I3 improvement is more than 10 dB related to a single carrier IBO 9 dB, when it is linked and tested for 50 W spacebrone Travelling Wave Tube Amplifier(TWTA).
文摘A study is made on the overshoot phenomena in wind-generated waves. The surface displacements of time-growing. waves are measured at four fetches in a wind wave channel. The evolution of high frequency waves is displayed with wavelet transform. The results are compared with Sutherland's. It is found that high frequency wave components experience much stronger energy overshoot in the evolution. The energy of high frequency waves decreases greatly after overshoot.
文摘Although the Chen-Ricles（CR）method and the Kolay-Ricles（KR）method have been applied to conduct pseudodynamic tests,they have both been found to have some adverse numerical properties,such as conditional stability for stiffness hardening systems and an unusual overshoot in the steady-state response of a high-frequency mode.An improved formulation for each method can be achieved by using a stability amplification factor to boost the unconditional stability range for stiffness hardening systems and a loading correction term to eliminate the unusual overshoot in the steady-state response of a high-frequency mode.The details for developing improved formulations for each method are shown in this work.

文摘Payne effect and its associated weak overshoot are of importance for understanding and regulating the softening of rubber nanocomposites under large amplitude oscillations.Herein,Payne effect in diverse filled vulcanizates is investigated for generalizing the common characteristics.Master curves of strain amplitude dependent storage modulus are created with respect to microscopic strain amplitude of the matrix,revealing a matrix-dominated elastic nonlinearity being independent of type and dispersity of filler,crosslinking density and sol fraction of matrix and filler-rubber interfacial interactions.However,carbonaceous fillers with higher affinity to the rubber matrices yield lower strain amplification and higher overshoot behavior in comparison with siliceous silica.The investigation would be illuminating for preparing rubber nanocomposites with optimized reinforcement and softening performances.
文摘China＇s first interest rate hike during the last decade, aiming to cool down the seemingly overheated real estate market, had aroused more caution on housing market. This paper aims to analyze the housing price dynamics after an unanticipated economic shock, which was believed to have similar properties with the backward-looking expecta- tion models. The analysis of the housing price dynamics is based on the cobweb model with a simple user cost affected demand and a stock-flow supply assumption. Several nth- order delay rational difference equations are set up to illustrate the properties of housing dynamics phenomena, such as the equilibrium or oscillations, overshoot or undershoot and convergent or divergent, for a kind of heterogeneous backward-looking expectation models. The results show that demand elasticity is less than supply elasticity is not a necessary condition for the occurrence of oscillation. The housing price dynamics will vary substantially with the heterogeneous backward-looking expectation assumption and some other endogenous factors.
文摘In this paper, we consider the two-sided first exit problem for jump diffusion processes having jumps with rational Laplace transforms. We investigate the probabilistic property of conditional memorylessness, and drive the joint distribution of the first exit time from an interval and the overshoot over the boundary at the exit time.
文摘AIM:To study the leakage-penumbra(LP)effect with a proposed correction method for the step-and-shoot intensity modulated radiation therapy(IMRT).METHODS:Leakage-penumbra dose profiles from 10 randomly selected prostate IMRT plans were studied.The IMRT plans were delivered by a Varian 21 EX linear accelerator equipped with a 120-leaf multileaf collimator(MLC).For each treatment plan created by the Pinnacle3 treatment planning system,a 3-dimensional LP dose distribution generated by 5 coplanar photon beams,starting from 0o with equal separation of 72 o,was investigated.For each photon beam used in the stepand-shoot IMRT plans,the first beam segment was set to have the largest area in the MLC leaf-sequencing,and was equal to the planning target volume(PTV).The overshoot effect(OSE)and the segment positional errors were measured using a solid water phantom with Kodak(TL and X-OMAT V)radiographic films.Film dosimetric analysis and calibration were carried out using a film scanner(Vidar VXR-16).The LP dose profiles were determined by eliminating the OSE and segment positional errors with specific individual irradiations.RESULTS:A non-uniformly distributed leaf LP dose ranging from 3%to 5%of the beam dose was measured in clinical IMRT beams.An overdose at the gap between neighboring segments,represented as dose peaks of up to 10%of the total BP,was measured.The LP effect increased the dose to the PTV and surrounding critical tissues.In addition,the effectdepends on the number of beams and segments for each beam.Segment positional error was less than the maximum tolerance of 1 mm under a dose rate of 600 monitor units per minute in the treatment plans.The OSE varying with the dose rate was observed in all photon beams,and the effect increased from 1 to 1.3 Gy per treatment of the rectal intersection.As the dosimetric impacts from the LP effect and OSE may increase the rectal post-radiation effects,a correction of LP was proposed and demonstrated for the central beam profile for one of the planned beams.CONCLUSION:We concluded that the measured dosimetric impact of the LP dose inaccuracy from photon beam segment in step-and-shoot IMRT can be corrected.
文摘We demonstrate a brand-new method to sharpen a color image by using an integral mask-filtering technique. The derivatives between the target pixel and its neighbors are transferred by the cubic root function instead of the traditional linear one. The obtained final image has clearer fine characteristics along with much less overshooting.

文摘Numerical diffusion or filter are used in most numerical models in order to eliminate small-scale (near two-grid intervals in wavelength) waves, However, conventional diffusion or filter schemes introduce the noise, and indeed few people realized, by filters themselves. For instance, most filters are troubled when they are put to use on meteorological fields with sharp gradient or with steep slope and consequently, the recurrence of undesirable numerical high-frequent oscillations (overshooting and undershooting) seems to be inevitable, Particularly when diffusion or filter is implemented in limited-area models, serious side effects on the limited-area boundaries often contaminate the modeling results. The merits and demerits are surveyed for commonly used diffusion or filter operations. A new type of monotonic digit filter is suggested to prevent overshooting and undershooting (due to the computational shock and Gibbs oscillation) nearby the discontinuous or nearly discontinuous locations when the filtering process was carried out, meanwhile the high selective property of damping is retained. Moreover, the new filter is designed on the implicit framework so that it can easily handle the problem of boundary diminishing in limited-area modeling.
