Methods for constructing analytic phase function for small spherical particle polydispersions

Two ways of constructing analytic phase function for a polydispersion of small spherical non-absorbing particles have been investigated. First one is a straightforward procedure emanating from the implementation of single particle scattering input into the defined polydisperse phase function. This results in an analytic phase function in terms of moments of the distribution. The second approach is a new strategy, based on the Lagrange mean value theorem. A clear understanding of the relationship between these two approaches has been developed. The efficacy and accuracy of the scattering phase functions is illustrated by applying it to a power-law size distributed sphere ensemble.     

The use of bio-diesel based additive as rheology improver and pour point depressant of Nigerian waxy crude

The chemical method has proved to be the most effective mitigating method of wax deposition in petroleum system as it deals with the root cause of wax formation. Most of the commercial chemicals in the industry are very expensive and toxic. This paper aims the use of biodiesel based additives for improving the rheological behavior and pour points of waxy crude from Nigeria field. The biodiesels derived additives gave better performance than the commercial chemical and the seed oils as greatly improvement in rheology and pour point values of the waxy crude were observed     

Cyanogenic,carotenoids and protein composition in leaves and roots across seven diverse population found in the world cassava germplasm collection at CIAT,Colombia

The objective of this study was to characterise the nutritional potential of leaves and identify a diversity centre with low cyanide and high nutrient content among 178 Latin American cassava genotypes. This field-based collection represents the seven diversity centres, held at The International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT Palmira, Colombia) by the Cassava Program. The cyanide, all-trans-β-carotene and lutein concentrations in cassava leaves ranged from 346 to 7484 ppm dry basis (db), from 174–547 μg g⁻¹ db and 15–181 μg g⁻¹ db, respectively. Cassava leaves also showed significant levels of essential amino acids leucine, lysine, phenylalanine, valine and threonine, and average total protein content of 26.24 g 100 g⁻¹ db. Among seven diversity centres, South American rainforest group showed low cyanide and high carotene content in leaves. In addition, VEN77 and PAN51 genotypes stood out for having low cyanide in leaves and roots and high carotene in leaves. This genetic diversity can be used to select high potential progenitors for breeding purposes.     

基于人体关节点数据的攻击性行为识别

针对人体攻击性行为识别问题，提出一种基于人体关节点数据的攻击性行为识别方法。首先，利用OpenPose获得单帧图像中的人体关节点数据，并通过最近邻帧特征加权法和分段多项式回归完成由人体自遮挡和环境因素所导致缺失值的补全；然后，对每个人体定义动态"安全距离"阈值，如果两人真实距离小于阈值，则构建行为特征矢量，其中包括帧间人体重心位移、人体关节旋转角角速度和发生交互时的最小攻击距离等；最后，提出改进的LightGBM算法w-LightGBM，并对攻击性行为进行识别。采用公共数据集UT-interaction对所提出的攻击性行为分类识别方法进行测试实验，准确率达到95.45%。实验结果表明，所提方法能够有效识别各种角度的攻击性行为。     

基于BS值的钢中多相组织分相技术

为了对钢中双相或多相组织进行分相定量表征，利用场发射扫描电镜(FE SEM)与电子背散射衍射技术(EBSD)中的BS值对其进行了详细的研究与讨论。结果表明，对于单相的铁素体、贝氏体或马氏体，其BS灰度分布图呈近似的正态分布，BS图可以呈现出类似于组织的图像。利用BS值可以很好地对结构相近的双相或多相组织进行分相定量。在分相定量时，需选择适合的拟合函数，定量结果才更为准确。     

基于双树复小波的无参考立体图像质量评价

随着3D技术的不断发展，立体图像的使用领域越来越广泛，同时人们对图像的清晰度要求越来越高，因此，立体图像的质量评价成为关注点，基于此，提出了一种基于双树复小波变换的立体图像质量评价算法。使用双树复小波变换对立体图像的左、右视图进行处理，生成纹理结构图像，且根据最小能量误差的原理，获取左右视图的视差图；对纹理结构图像和视差图提取非对称广义高斯分布模型的参数、梯度幅值、相对梯度方向方差和奇异值曲线与坐标轴的面积等特征；使用AdaBoosting BP神经网络，进行训练和预测立体图像的质量得分。在LIVE立体图像数据库上的实验结果表明，新方法预测得分与主观得分有较好的一致性，获得了比较好的实验结果。

Thermal performance and energy saving investigation in a modified baseboard radiator and compare it with conventional heating systems—Experimental and CFD approach

In the present work, thermal performance of a new modified baseboard radiator is investigated experimentally based on the European Standard EN-442. Temperature distribution and thermal comfort conditions of the floor heating system and panel radiator is compared with the present system numerically. To validation of the simulation results, a comparison has been made between the simulation and the experimental obtained results. Comparison shows that there is a good agreement between them. The heat output rate of the new system increased about 46.06% compared with conventional baseboard radiant model and also the baseboard heating system is capable of providing better thermal comfort conditions than two other systems. Energy consumption in three systems is investigated experimentally by smart temperature control mechanism. Results show that energy consumption in the baseboard radiant is 83.03% and 55.96% lower than floor heating system and panel radiator, respectively.
