堤坝劈裂灌浆造孔间距改变的灌浆效果评价

堤坝劈裂灌浆技术是改善堤坝工程内在质量的一项重要技术措施,然而目前对该技术浆液在坝体内的渗透固结机理尚不明确,无法对灌浆后坝体的防渗效果进行有效地评价。为此,假定施工工艺其他条件不变的情况下,针对灌浆孔间距布设与劈裂灌浆防渗实际效果之间的相互作用规律,基于大型有限元数值计算方法,采用Mohr—CoulombHardening本构模型,通过布设不同间距灌浆孔的流固耦合计算,研究了堤坝劈裂灌浆过程中浆液所产生的孔隙水压力、堤坝应力应变等分布规律,揭示了堤坝劈裂灌浆浆液在土体内渗流固结机理,探讨了其对坝体稳定性的影响,评价了灌浆效果。

Overcoming challenges in the study of nitrided microalloyed steels using atom probe

Nitrided steels are widely used in the engineering field due to their superior hardness and other attractive properties. Atom probe tomography (APT) was employed to study two Nb-microalloyed CASTRIP steels with different N contents. A major challenge of using APT to study this group of materials is the presence of tails after Fe peaks in the mass spectra, which overestimates the composition for alloying elements such as Nb and Cu in the steels. One important factor that contributes to the tails is believed to be delayed field evaporation from Fe²⁺. This artefact of the mass spectrum was observed to be the most severe when voltage pulsing was used. The application of laser pulses with energy ranging from 0.2 to 1.2 nJ successfully reduced the tails and lead to better compositional measurement accuracy. Spatial resolution in the z-direction (along the tip direction) was observed to be less affected by changing laser energy but deteriorates in x-y direction with increasing laser energy. This investigation suggests that pulsed-laser atom probe with ∼0.4 nJ laser energy can be used to study this group of materials with improved mass resolution while still maintaining high spatial resolution.     

Advanced phosphorus removal for secondary effluent using a natural treatment system

Mechanisms for low concentrations phosphorus removal in secondary effluent were studied, and a process was developed using limestone filters (LF), submerged macrophyte oxidation ponds (SMOPs) and a subsurface vertical flow wetland (SVFW). Pilot scale experimental models were applied in series to investigate the advanced purification of total phosphorus (TP) in secondary effluent at the Chengjiang sewage treatment plant. With a total hydraulic residence time (HRT) of 82.52 h, the average effluent TP dropped to 0.17 mg L(-1), meeting the standard for Class III surface waters. The major functions of the LF were adsorption and forced precipitation, with a particulate phosphorus (PP) removal of 82.93% and a total dissolved phosphorus (TDP) removal of 41.07%. Oxygen-releasing submerged macrophytes in the SMOPs resulted in maximum dissolved oxygen (DO) and pH values of 11.55 mg L(-1) and 8.10, respectively. This regime provided suitable conditions for chemical precipitation of TDP, which was reduced by a further 39.29%. In the SVFW, TDP was further reduced, and the TP removal in the final effluent reached 85.08%.

Optimization of oval–round pass design using genetic algorithm

The primary purpose of this paper is to propose a computer aided optimal design system to support a generalized oval–round pass design, which is widely used as both intermediate and final passes in the process of rod rolling. This system, which is based on a hybrid model and the genetic algorithm, is developed to improve the efficiency, to reduce the manufacturing errors, as well as to extend the useful life of rolls through uniform wear design. Generalized parametric equations are established for geometrical modeling, graphic plotting of oval–round passes, as well as calculation of the cross section area, contact area and the lengths of contact arcs along the cross section of round groove in the MATLAB programming environment. Moreover, these equations can also realize the parametric transformation between roll profile and mathematical models for the oval–round pass design and optimization. The genetic algorithm is employed for the optimal design of oval–round passes in this paper. The objective functions are formulated for minimization of power consumption in the rolling process, variances between ideal dimensions and design dimensions, as well as variances between the lengths of contact arcs. To reduce the complexity and computational burden of the system, some reliable empirical formulas for the calculations of contact area and contact arc length are applied. Finally, the proposed approach is applied to an oval–round pass design. Through simulation and comparison of results against experimental data acquired from literature, it is found that this system is reliable, effective and easier to use.     

Remote sensing image classification based on neural network ensemble algorithm

The amounts and types of remote sensing data have increased rapidly, and the classification of these datasets has become more and more overwhelming for a single classifier in practical applications. In this paper, an ensemble algorithm based on Diversity Ensemble Creation by Oppositional Relabeling of Artificial Training Examples (DECORATEs) and Rotation Forest is proposed to solve the classification problem of remote sensing image. In this ensemble algorithm, the RBF neural networks are employed as base classifiers. Furthermore, interpolation technology for identical distribution is used to remold the input datasets. These remolded datasets will construct new classifiers besides the initial classifiers constructed by the Rotation Forest algorithm. The change of classification error is used to decide whether to add another new classifier. Therefore, the diversity among these classifiers will be enhanced and the accuracy of classification will be improved. Adaptability of the proposed algorithm is verified in experiments implemented on standard datasets and actual remote sensing dataset.     

Repeated Price Search

Consumers check few sites in online purchases. Previous research and experiments we perform demonstrate that consumers can not calculate the optimal strategy for price search. They use heuristics whose performance is better than random and less than optimal. To investigate online price search performance we survey student online textbook purchases. Students achieve good performance because they start with a good strategy and online market organization of marketplace and meta-search sites. An important factor is that algorithms at sites searched perform calculations that reduce the computational complexity of the search.     

Rubber-assisted embossing of polymer thin films using molds with through-thickness microchannels

A flexible microfluidic chip is difficult to fabricate using the standard hot embossing technology. In this study, rubber-assisted embossing of polymer thin films using molds with through-thickness microchannels was investigated. The polymer film was thermoformed into the microchannels by rubber as a soft counter-tool. Different processing conditions, as well as material selections, affecting the thickness uniformity and replicated depth were examined. Results indicated that smoother surfaces on the embossed articles were created, and the thickness uniformity and the depth of the embossed channel were significantly affected by the embossing temperature, the embossing pressure, and the rubber hardness. The embossed film was sealed on one side with a layer of transparent adhesive film to form closed microchannels, and desired 3-D flow characteristics were obtained with this flexible microfluidic chip.
