The Doppler information observed by radars reflects sea surface dynamics, to which ocean waves make important contributions. Low-incidence-angle real aperture radar(RAR)demonstrates great potential for independently observing vectorial Doppler information on the ocean surface. To systematically characterize and accurately estimate the wave-induced Doppler frequency shift(WVF) from lowincidence-angle RAR, this study conducts comprehensive influencing factor analysis and establishes sea-stateparameterized WVF models. First, a simulated WVF dataset is generated under a rotating low-incidence-angle RAR.The feature parameters of WVF are then determined by analysing contributing factors including wind waves, swells,and sea state parameters. Furthermore, two WVF models(WVF_Ku P9 with 9 inputs and WVF_Ku P4 with 4 inputs) are constructed by the Transformer encoder for different application scenarios. Both models achieve high accuracy for WVF estimation with root mean square errors(RMSE) of 1.874 Hz and 2.716 Hz, respectively. The reliability and superiority of the proposed models are validated through comparisons with the Ka DOP, which is a typical geophysical model function(GMF). The findings in this paper advance the understanding of WVF characteristics and generation mechanisms. The proposed estimation models can provide reliable estimates, offering critical references for lowincidence-angle RAR applications such as ocean surface current retrieval.展开更多

文摘The gears of new energy vehicles are required to withstand higher rotational speeds and greater loads,which puts forward higher precision essentials for gear manufacturing.However,machining process parameters can cause changes in cutting force/heat,resulting in affecting gear machining precision.Therefore,this paper studies the effect of different process parameters on gear machining precision.A multi-objective optimization model is established for the relationship between process parameters and tooth surface deviations,tooth profile deviations,and tooth lead deviations through the cutting speed,feed rate,and cutting depth of the worm wheel gear grinding machine.The response surface method(RSM)is used for experimental design,and the corresponding experimental results and optimal process parameters are obtained.Subsequently,gray relational analysis-principal component analysis(GRA-PCA),particle swarm optimization(PSO),and genetic algorithm-particle swarm optimization(GA-PSO)methods are used to analyze the experimental results and obtain different optimal process parameters.The results show that optimal process parameters obtained by the GRA-PCA,PSO,and GA-PSO methods improve the gear machining precision.Moreover,the gear machining precision obtained by GA-PSO is superior to other methods.
文摘The dramatic rise in the number of people living in cities has made many environmental and social problems worse.The search for a productive method for disposing of solid waste is the most notable of these problems.Many scholars have referred to it as a fuzzy multi-attribute or multi-criteria decision-making problem using various fuzzy set-like approaches because of the inclusion of criteria and anticipated ambiguity.The goal of the current study is to use an innovative methodology to address the expected uncertainties in the problem of solid waste site selection.The characteristics(or sub-attributes)that decision-makers select and the degree of approximation they accept for various options can both be indicators of these uncertainties.To tackle these problems,a novel mathematical structure known as the fuzzy parameterized possibility single valued neutrosophic hypersoft expert set(ρˆ-set),which is initially described,is integrated with a modified version of Sanchez’s method.Following this,an intelligent algorithm is suggested.The steps of the suggested algorithm are explained with an example that explains itself.The compatibility of solid waste management sites and systems is discussed,and rankings are established along with detailed justifications for their viability.This study’s strengths lie in its application of fuzzy parameterization and possibility grading to effectively handle the uncertainties embodied in the parameters’nature and alternative approximations,respectively.It uses specific mathematical formulations to compute the fuzzy parameterized degrees and possibility grades that are missing from the prior literature.It is simpler for the decisionmakers to look at each option separately because the decision is uncertain.Comparing the computed results,it is discovered that they are consistent and dependable because of their preferred properties.

文摘To overcome the shortage of complex equipment,large volume,and high energy consumption in space capsule manufacturing,a novel sliding pressure Joule heat fuse additive manufacturing technique with reduced volume and low energy consumption was proposed.But the unreasonable process parameters may lead to the inferior consistency of the forming quality of single-channel multilayer in Joule heat additive manufacturing process,and it is difficult to reach the condition for forming thinwalled parts.Orthogonal experiments were designed to fabricate single-channel multilayer samples with varying numbers of layers,and their forming quality was evaluated.The influence of printing current,forming speed,and contact pressure on the forming quality of the single-channel multilayer was analyzed.The optimal process parameters were obtained and the quality characterization of the experiment results was conducted.Results show that the printing current has the most significant influence on the forming quality of the single-channel multilayer.Under the optimal process parameters,the forming section is well fused and the surface is continuously smooth.The surface roughness of a single-channel 3-layer sample is 0.16μm,and the average Vickers hardness of cross section fusion zone is 317 HV,which lays a foundation for the subsequent use of Joule heat additive manufacturing technique to form thinwall parts.
文摘In complex systems,there is a kind of parameters having only a minor impact on the outputs in most cases,but their accurate values are still critical for the operation of systems.In this paper,the authors focus on the identification of these weak influence parameters in the complex systems and propose a identification model based on the parameter recursion.As an application,three parameters of the steam generator are identified,that is,the valve opening,the valve CV value,and the reference water level,in which the valve opening and the reference water level are weak influence parameters under most operating conditions.Numerical simulation results show that,in comparison with the multi-layer perceptron(MLP),the identification error rate is decreased.Actually,the average identification error rate for the valve opening decreases by 0.96%,for the valve CV decreases by 0.002%,and for the reference water level decreases by 12%after one recursion.After two recursions,the average identification error rate for the valve opening decreases by 11.07%,for the valve CV decreases by 2.601%,and for the reference water level decreases by 95.79%.This method can help to improve the control of the steam generator.

文摘The lattice parameter,measured with sufficient accuracy,can be utilized to evaluate the quality of single crystals and to determine the equation of state for materials.We propose an iterative method for obtaining more precise lattice parameters using the interaction points for the pseudo-Kossel pattern obtained from laser-induced X-ray diffraction(XRD).This method has been validated by the analysis of an XRD experiment conducted on iron single crystals.Furthermore,the method was used to calculate the compression ratio and rotated angle of an LiF sample under high pressure loading.This technique provides a robust tool for in-situ characterization of structural changes in single crystals under extreme conditions.It has significant implications for studying the equation of state and phase transitions.
文摘Accurately predicting environmental parameters in solar greenhouses is crucial for achieving precise environmental control.In solar greenhouses,temperature,humidity,and light intensity are crucial environmental parameters.The monitoring platform collected data on the internal environment of the solar greenhouse for one year,including temperature,humidity,and light intensity.Additionally,meteorological data,comprising outdoor temperature,outdoor humidity,and outdoor light intensity,was gathered during the same time frame.The characteristics and interrelationships among these parameters were investigated by a thorough analysis.The analysis revealed that environmental parameters in solar greenhouses displayed characteristics such as temporal variability,non-linearity,and periodicity.These parameters exhibited complex coupling relationships.Notably,these characteristics and coupling relationships exhibited pronounced seasonal variations.The multi-parameter multi-step prediction model for solar greenhouse(MPMS-SGH)was introduced,aiming to accurately predict three key greenhouse environmental parameters,and the model had certain seasonal adaptability.MPMS-SGH was structured with multiple layers,including an input layer,a preprocessing layer,a feature extraction layer,and a prediction layer.The input layer was used to generate the original sequence matrix,which included indoor temperature,indoor humidity,indoor light intensity,as well as outdoor temperature and outdoor light intensity.Then the preprocessing layer normalized,decomposed,and positionally encoded the original sequence matrix.In the feature extraction layer,the time attention mechanism and frequency attention mechanism were used to extract features from the trend component and the seasonal component,respectively.Finally,the prediction layer used a multi-layer perceptron to perform multi-step prediction of indoor environmental parameters(i.e.temperature,humidity,and light intensity).The parameter selection experiment evaluated the predictive performance of MPMS-SGH on input and output sequences of different lengths.The results indicated that with a constant output sequence length,the prediction accuracy of MPMS-SGH was firstly increased and then decreased with the increase of input sequence length.Specifically,when the input sequence length was 100,MPMS-SGH had the highest prediction accuracy,with RMSE of 0.22℃,0.28%,and 250lx for temperature,humidity,and light intensity,respectively.When the length of the input sequence remained constant,as the length of the output sequence increased,the accuracy of the model in predicting the three environmental parameters was continuously decreased.When the length of the output sequence exceeded 45,the prediction accuracy of MPMS-SGH was significantly decreased.In order to achieve the best balance between model size and performance,the input sequence length of MPMS-SGH was set to be 100,while the output sequence length was set to be 35.To assess MPMS-SGH’s performance,comparative experiments with four prediction models were conducted:SVR,STL-SVR,LSTM,and STL-LSTM.The results demonstrated that MPMS-SGH surpassed all other models,achieving RMSE of 0.15℃for temperature,0.38%for humidity,and 260lx for light intensity.Additionally,sequence decomposition can contribute to enhancing MPMS-SGH’s prediction performance.To further evaluate MPMS-SGH’s capabilities,its prediction accuracy was tested across different seasons for greenhouse environmental parameters.MPMS-SGH had the highest accuracy in predicting indoor temperature and the lowest accuracy in predicting humidity.And the accuracy of MPMS-SGH in predicting environmental parameters of the solar greenhouse fluctuated with seasons.MPMS-SGH had the highest accuracy in predicting the temperature inside the greenhouse on sunny days in spring(R^(2)=0.91),the highest accuracy in predicting the humidity inside the greenhouse on sunny days in winter(R^(2)=0.83),and the highest accuracy in predicting the light intensity inside the greenhouse on cloudy days in autumm(R^(2)=0.89).MPMS-SGH had the lowest accuracy in predicting three environmental parameters in a sunny summer greenhouse.

文摘In the field of antenna engineering parameter calibration for indoor communication base stations,traditional methods suffer from issues such as low efficiency,poor accuracy,and limited applicability to indoor scenarios.To address these problems,a high-precision and high-efficiency indoor base station parameter calibration method based on laser measurement is proposed.We use a high-precision laser tracker to measure and determine the coordinate system transformation relationship,and further obtain the coordinates and attitude of the base station.In addition,we propose a simple calibration method based on point cloud fitting for specific scenes.Simulation results show that using common commercial laser trackers,we can achieve a coordinate correction accuracy of 1 cm and an angle correction accuracy of 0.25°,which is sufficient to meet the needs of wireless positioning.

文摘The high-speed winding spindle employs a flexible support system incorporating rubber O-rings.By precisely configuring the structural parameters and the number of the O-rings,the spindle can stably surpass its critical speed points and maintain operational stability across the entire working speed range.However,the support stiffness and damping of rubber O-rings exhibit significant nonlinear frequency dependence.Conventional experimental methods for deriving equivalent stiffness and damping,based on the principle of the forced non-resonance method,require fabricating custom setups for each O-ring specification and conducting vibration tests at varying frequencies,resulting in low efficiency and high costs.This study proposes a hybrid simulation-experimental method for dynamic parameter identification.Firstly,the frequency-dependent dynamic parameters of a specific O-ring support system are experimentally obtained.Subsequently,a corresponding parametric finite element model is established to simulate and solve the equivalent elastic modulus and equivalent stiffness-damping coefficient of this O-ring support system.Ultimately,after iterative simulation,the simulated and experimental results achieve a 99.7%agreement.The parametric finite element model developed herein can directly simulate and inversely estimate frequency-dependent dynamic parameters for O-rings of different specifications but identical elastic modulus.
文摘BACKGROUND Sagittal spinopelvic alignment(SSA)is essential for preserving a stable and effective upright posture and locomotion.Although alterations in the SSA are recognised to induce compensatory modifications in the pelvis,hips,and knees,the inverse relationship concerning knee pathology undergoing total knee arthroplasty(TKA)has been examined by a limited number of studies,yielding inconclusive results.AIM To generate evidence of the effect of TKA on the SSA from existing literature.METHODS Databases like PubMed,EMBASE,and Scopus were used to identify articles related to the“knee spine syndrome”phenomenon using a combination of subject terms and keywords such as“spinopelvic parameters”,“sagittal spinal balance”,and“total knee arthroplasty”were used with appropriate Boolean operators.Studies measuring the SSA following TKA were included,and research was conducted as per preferred reporting items for systematic review and metaanalysis guidelines.RESULTS A total of 475 participants had undergone TKA,and six studies measuring SSA were analysed.Following TKA,pelvic tilt was the only parameter that showed significant changes,while lumbar lordosis(LL),pelvic incidence,and sacral slope were non-significant,as evident from the forest plots.CONCLUSION The body's sagittal alignment is a complex balance between pelvic,spine,and lower extremity parameters.TKA,while having the potential to correct the flexion contracture,can also correct it.Still,the primary SSA for spinal pathology,i.e.,LL,may not be corrected in patients with co-existent spinal degenerative disease.

文摘Crassostrea gigas is distinguished by its robust fertility,adaptability to various environmental conditions,and rich nutritional profile,which render it a cornerstone of the global shellfish market.Tetraploid oysters,in particular,is a pivotal role within the oyster industry,however,their growth and survival characteristics need to be improved.This study aimed to assess the viability of enhancing the growth and survival characteristics of tetraploid C.gigas through genetic selection.This was achieved by investigating the heritability and genetic correlation of growth and survival at various stages of C.gigas development.Genetic parameters were assessed based on in-group correlations in 28 full-sib families during the larval stage(days 3,8,13,18,and 23 after fertilization).The heritability of larval shell height and shell length ranged from 0.50 to 0.71 and 0.44 to 0.71,respectively,and varied with age.The heritability of larval survival was 0.40–0.64,indicating that it is viable to enhancelarval survival through selection.The genetic correlation between the growth traits of larvae at different ages was highly positive(0.959–0.999),indicating that the selection of a single growth trait could cause the positive response of other growth traits.However,the genetic correlation between larval survival and growth traits was low,showing a significant negative correlation(-0.198–-0.293)at day 23 of age,suggesting thatselecting for enhanced survival in tetraploid C.gigas may result in a detrimental impact on growth traits.The results are helpful for future researches to evaluate the genetic parameters related to growth and survival traits in juvenile and adult stages of the tetraploid family of C.gigas,which can provide further guidance for the selection of tetraploid C.gigas.

文摘The research on ocean dynamics information plays a crucial role in understanding ocean phenomena, assessing marine environmental impacts, and guiding engineering designs. The Doppler information observed by radars reflects sea surface dynamics, to which ocean waves make important contributions. Low-incidence-angle real aperture radar(RAR)demonstrates great potential for independently observing vectorial Doppler information on the ocean surface. To systematically characterize and accurately estimate the wave-induced Doppler frequency shift(WVF) from lowincidence-angle RAR, this study conducts comprehensive influencing factor analysis and establishes sea-stateparameterized WVF models. First, a simulated WVF dataset is generated under a rotating low-incidence-angle RAR.The feature parameters of WVF are then determined by analysing contributing factors including wind waves, swells,and sea state parameters. Furthermore, two WVF models(WVF_Ku P9 with 9 inputs and WVF_Ku P4 with 4 inputs) are constructed by the Transformer encoder for different application scenarios. Both models achieve high accuracy for WVF estimation with root mean square errors(RMSE) of 1.874 Hz and 2.716 Hz, respectively. The reliability and superiority of the proposed models are validated through comparisons with the Ka DOP, which is a typical geophysical model function(GMF). The findings in this paper advance the understanding of WVF characteristics and generation mechanisms. The proposed estimation models can provide reliable estimates, offering critical references for lowincidence-angle RAR applications such as ocean surface current retrieval.

文摘Predictions of fluid distribution,stress field,and natural fracture are essential for exploiting unconventional shale gas reservoirs.Given the high likelihood of tilted fractures in subsurface formations,this study focuses on simultaneous seismic inversion to estimate fluid bulk modulus,effective stress parameter,and fracture density in the tilted transversely isotropic(TTI)medium.In this article,a novel PP-wave reflection coefficient approximation equation is first derived based on the constructed TTI stiffness matrix incorporating fracture density,effective stress parameter,and fluid bulk modulus.The high accuracy of the proposed equation has been demonstrated using an anisotropic two-layer model.Furthermore,a stepwise seismic inversion strategy with the L_(P) quasi-norm sparsity constraint is implemented to obtain the anisotropic and isotropic parameters.Three synthetic model tests with varying signal-to-noise ratios(SNRs)confirm the method's feasibility and noise robustness.Ultimately,the proposed method is applied to a 3D fractured shale gas reservoir in the Sichuan Basin,China.The results have effectively characterized shale gas distribution,stress fields,and tilted natural fractures,with validation from geological structures,well logs,and microseismic events.These findings can provide valuable guidance for hydraulic fracturing development,enabling more reliable predictions of reservoir heterogeneity and completion quality.
文摘The current investigation focuses on intertwined relationships of ecology and aquaculture for the benefit of farmers involved in fish farming practices.The study evaluated glucosinolate reduction in black,brown,and white mustard meals as fish feed ingredients for Indian Major Carps.Fish were fed with 10%mustard meal-supplemented diets in three forms:Raw(R),Anti-nutritional Rich(AR),and Anti-nutritional Lowered(AL),alongside a control group using floating feed.The three-month indoor experiment(September-November 2023)was conducted in FRP tanks with triplicate treatments.Blood analysis revealed compromised health in AR-fed carps,with reduced hemoglobin levels in rohu,catla and mrigal and elevated total leukocyte counts indicating inflammation in all the three carps studied here.Liver function was impaired in AR-fed fish,shown by increased alanine transaminase levels,highest in rohu followed by mrigal and catla.Histopathological examination of AR-fed carps liver tissue revealed necrotic spots,deformed hepatocytes,and significant vacuolation.In contrast,AL-fed fish demonstrated improved health parameters through Complete Blood Count analysis,liver function tests,and histo-pathological observations,suggesting successful reduction of anti-nutritional factors in the processed mustard meals.In near future,replacement of unprocessed seed meal with processed seed meal will lead to economic gains in fish farming.
