This method is applied to two types of chaotic dynamic systems(Lorenz and Rssler) to examine the anti-noise ability for complex systems. Results show that the nonlinear dynamic system analysis method resists noise and reveals the internal dynamics of a weak signal from noise pollution. On this basis, the vertical upward gas–liquid two-phase flow in a 2 mm × 0.81 mm small rectangular channel is investigated. The frequency and energy distributions of the main oscillation mode are revealed by analyzing the time–frequency spectra of the pressure signals of different flow patterns. The positive power spectral density of singular-value frequency entropy and the damping ratio are extracted to characterize the evolution of flow patterns and achieve accurate recognition of different vertical upward gas–liquid flow patterns(bubbly flow:100%, slug flow: 92%, churn flow: 96%, annular flow: 100%). The proposed analysis method will enrich the dynamics theory of multi-phase flow in small channel.展开更多

Heat transfer analysis is very important for the prediction and prevention of deposits in oil and water flowlines, which could impede the flow and give rise to huge financial losses. Therefore, a 3D mathematical model of oil-water Newtonian flow under non-isothermal conditions is established to explore the complex mechanisms of the two-phase oil-water transportation and heat transfer in different flowline inclinations. In this work, a non-isothermal two-phase flow model is first modified and then implemented in the InterFoam solver by introducing the energy equation using OpenFOAM® code. The Low Reynolds Number (LRN) k-ε turbulence model is utilized to resolve the turbulence phenomena within the oil and water mixtures. The flow patterns and the local heat transfer coefficients (HTC) for two-phase oil-water flow at different flowlines inclinations (0°, +4°, +7°) are validated by the experimental literature results and the relative errors are also compared. Global sensitivity analysis is then conducted to determine the effect of the different parameters on the performance of the produced two-phase hydrocarbon systems for effective subsea fluid transportation. Thereafter, HTC and flow patterns for oil-water flows at downward inclinations of 4°, and 7° can be predicted by the models. The velocity distribution, pressure gradient, liquid holdup, and temperature variation at the flowline cross-sections are simulated and analyzed in detail. Consequently, the numerical model can be generally applied to compute the global properties of the fluid and other operating parameters that are beneficial in the management of two-phase oil-water transportation.展开更多

文摘A new method of nonlinear analysis is established by combining phase space reconstruction and data reduction sub-frequency band wavelet. This method is applied to two types of chaotic dynamic systems(Lorenz and Rssler) to examine the anti-noise ability for complex systems. Results show that the nonlinear dynamic system analysis method resists noise and reveals the internal dynamics of a weak signal from noise pollution. On this basis, the vertical upward gas–liquid two-phase flow in a 2 mm × 0.81 mm small rectangular channel is investigated. The frequency and energy distributions of the main oscillation mode are revealed by analyzing the time–frequency spectra of the pressure signals of different flow patterns. The positive power spectral density of singular-value frequency entropy and the damping ratio are extracted to characterize the evolution of flow patterns and achieve accurate recognition of different vertical upward gas–liquid flow patterns(bubbly flow:100%, slug flow: 92%, churn flow: 96%, annular flow: 100%). The proposed analysis method will enrich the dynamics theory of multi-phase flow in small channel.

文摘The issue of strong noise has increasingly become a bottleneck restricting the precision and application space of electromagnetic exploration methods.Noise suppression and extraction of effective electromagnetic response information under a strong noise background is a crucial scientific task to be addressed.To solve the noise suppression problem of the controlled-source electromagnetic method in strong interference areas,we propose an approach based on complex-plane 2D k-means clustering for data processing.Based on the stability of the controlled-source signal response,clustering analysis is applied to classify the spectra of different sources and noises in multiple time segments.By identifying the power spectra with controlled-source characteristics,it helps to improve the quality of the controlled-source response extraction.This paper presents the principle and workflow of the proposed algorithm,and demonstrates feasibility and effectiveness of the new algorithm through synthetic and real data examples.The results show that,compared with the conventional Robust denoising method,the clustering algorithm has a stronger suppression effect on common noise,can identify high-quality signals,and improve the preprocessing data quality of the controlledsource electromagnetic method.
文摘The fracture volume is gradually changed with the depletion of fracture pressure during the production process.However,there are few flowback models available so far that can estimate the fracture volume loss using pressure transient and rate transient data.The initial flowback involves producing back the fracturing fuid after hydraulic fracturing,while the second flowback involves producing back the preloading fluid injected into the parent wells before fracturing of child wells.The main objective of this research is to compare the initial and second flowback data to capture the changes in fracture volume after production and preload processes.Such a comparison is useful for evaluating well performance and optimizing frac-turing operations.We construct rate-normalized pressure(RNP)versus material balance time(MBT)diagnostic plots using both initial and second flowback data(FB;and FBs,respectively)of six multi-fractured horizontal wells completed in Niobrara and Codell formations in DJ Basin.In general,the slope of RNP plot during the FB,period is higher than that during the FB;period,indicating a potential loss of fracture volume from the FB;to the FB,period.We estimate the changes in effective fracture volume(Ver)by analyzing the changes in the RNP slope and total compressibility between these two flowback periods.Ver during FB,is in general 3%-45%lower than that during FB:.We also compare the drive mechanisms for the two flowback periods by calculating the compaction-drive index(CDI),hydrocarbon-drive index(HDI),and water-drive index(WDI).The dominant drive mechanism during both flowback periods is CDI,but its contribution is reduced by 16%in the FB,period.This drop is generally compensated by a relatively higher HDI during this period.The loss of effective fracture volume might be attributed to the pressure depletion in fractures,which occurs during the production period and can extend 800 days.

文摘Objective To identify core acupoint patterns and elucidate the molecular mechanisms of acupuncture for primary depressive disorder(PDD)through data mining and network analysis.Methods A comprehensive literature search was conducted across PubMed,Embase,Ovid Technologies(OVID),Web of Science,Cochrane Library,China National Knowledge Infrastructure(CNKI),China National Knowledge Infrastructure Database(VIP),Wanfang Data,and SinoMed Database from database foundation to January 31,2025,for clinical studies on acupuncture treatment of PDD.Descriptive statistics,high-frequency acupoint analysis,degree and betweenness centrality evaluation,and core acupoint prescription mining identified predominant therapeutic combinations for PDD.Network acupuncture was used to predict therapeutic target for the core acupoint prescription.Subsequent protein-protein interaction(PPI)network and molecular complex detection(MCODE)analyses were conducted to identify the key targets and functional modules.Gene Ontology(GO)and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG)analyses explored the underlying biological mechanisms of the core acupoint prescription in treating PDD.Results A total of 57 acupoint prescriptions underwent systematic analysis.The core therapeutic combinations comprised Baihui(GV20),Yintang(GV29),Neiguan(PC6),Hegu(LI4),and Shenmen(HT7).Network acupuncture analysis identified 88 potential therapeutic targets(79 overlapping with PDD),while PPI network analysis revealed central regulatory nodes,including interleukin(IL)-6,IL-1β,tumor necrosis factor(TNF)-α,toll-like receptor 4(TLR4),IL-10,brain-derived neurotrophic factor(BDNF),transforming growth factor(TGF)-β1,C-XC motif chemokine ligand 10(CXCL10),mitogen-activated protein kinase 3(MAPK3),and nitric oxide synthase 1(NOS1).MCODE-based modular analysis further elucidated three functionally coherent clusters:inflammation-homeostasis(score=6.571),plasticity-neurotransmission(score=3.143),and oxidative stress(score=3.000).GO and KEGG analyses demonstrated significant enrichment of the MAPK,phosphoinositide 3-kinase/protein kinase B(PI3K/Akt),and hypoxia-inducible factor(HIF)-1 signaling pathways.These mechanistic insights suggested that the antidepressant effects mediated through mechanisms of neuroinflammatory regulation,neuroplasticity restoration,and immune-oxidative stress homeostasis.Conclusion This study reveals that acupuncture alleviates depression through a multi-level mechanism,primarily involving the neuroinflammation suppression,neuroplasticity enhancement,and oxidative stress regulation.These findings systematically clarify the underlying mechanisms of acupuncture’s antidepressant effects and identify novel therapeutic targets for further mechanistic research.
文摘Heritage parks preserve cultural heritage while contributing to education,recreation,and sustainable urban development.However,the relationships between landscape elements and visitors'emotional responses remain underexplored.This study aims to bridge this gap by analysing social media reviews to understand how various landscape elements in heritage parks influence emotional experiences,offering insights for enhancing park services and promoting practical cultural heritage preservation.Using data from 63,288 visitor reviews(2018–2023)across five major social media platforms,this research focuses on five heritage parks in Xi'an as case studies.By employing latent Dirichlet allocation(LDA)topic modelling,sentiment analysis,and social network analysis(SNA),we identified five key categories of landscape elements:cultural landscapes,biological and natural environments,framework and service facilities,special activities,and architecture and infrastructure.Sentiment analysis revealed that cultural landscapes elicited the highest positive emotional response score(64.9%),reflecting their historical and aesthetic significance.Framework and service facilities had the highest emotional intensity score(8.09),emphasising their functional role in enhancing visitor satisfaction.In contrast,the biological and natural environments presented weaker emotional appeal(6.86).This study provides a novel framework linking emotional responses to specific landscape features,offering practical guidance for optimising heritage park management and supporting the preservation and promotion of cultural heritage.

文摘Semantic communication(SemCom)aims to achieve high-fidelity information delivery under low communication consumption by only guaranteeing semantic accuracy.Nevertheless,semantic communication still suffers from unexpected channel volatility and thus developing a re-transmission mechanism(e.g.,hybrid automatic repeat request[HARQ])becomes indispensable.In that regard,instead of discarding previously transmitted information,the incremental knowledge-based HARQ(IK-HARQ)is deemed as a more effective mechanism that could sufficiently utilize the information semantics.However,considering the possible existence of semantic ambiguity in image transmission,a simple bit-level cyclic redundancy check(CRC)might compromise the performance of IK-HARQ.Therefore,there emerges a strong incentive to revolutionize the CRC mechanism,thus more effectively reaping the benefits of both SemCom and HARQ.In this paper,built on top of swin transformer-based joint source-channel coding(JSCC)and IK-HARQ,we propose a semantic image transmission framework SC-TDA-HARQ.In particular,different from the conventional CRC,we introduce a topological data analysis(TDA)-based error detection method,which capably digs out the inner topological and geometric information of images,to capture semantic information and determine the necessity for re-transmission.Extensive numerical results validate the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed SC-TDA-HARQ framework,especially under the limited bandwidth condition,and manifest the superiority of TDA-based error detection method in image transmission.

文摘Estimating the oil-water temperatures in flowlines is challenging especially in deepwater and ultra-deepwater offshore applications where issues of flow assurance and dramatic heat transfer are likely to occur due to the temperature difference between the fluids and the surroundings. Heat transfer analysis is very important for the prediction and prevention of deposits in oil and water flowlines, which could impede the flow and give rise to huge financial losses. Therefore, a 3D mathematical model of oil-water Newtonian flow under non-isothermal conditions is established to explore the complex mechanisms of the two-phase oil-water transportation and heat transfer in different flowline inclinations. In this work, a non-isothermal two-phase flow model is first modified and then implemented in the InterFoam solver by introducing the energy equation using OpenFOAM® code. The Low Reynolds Number (LRN) k-ε turbulence model is utilized to resolve the turbulence phenomena within the oil and water mixtures. The flow patterns and the local heat transfer coefficients (HTC) for two-phase oil-water flow at different flowlines inclinations (0°, +4°, +7°) are validated by the experimental literature results and the relative errors are also compared. Global sensitivity analysis is then conducted to determine the effect of the different parameters on the performance of the produced two-phase hydrocarbon systems for effective subsea fluid transportation. Thereafter, HTC and flow patterns for oil-water flows at downward inclinations of 4°, and 7° can be predicted by the models. The velocity distribution, pressure gradient, liquid holdup, and temperature variation at the flowline cross-sections are simulated and analyzed in detail. Consequently, the numerical model can be generally applied to compute the global properties of the fluid and other operating parameters that are beneficial in the management of two-phase oil-water transportation.
