The stress intensity factors for a short crack partially penetrating an inclusion of arbitrary shape

Some approximate solutions for predicting the stress intensity factor of a short crack penetrating an inclusion of arbitrary shape have been developed under mode I and mode II loading conditions. The derivation of the fundamental formula is based on the transformation toughening theory. The transformation strains in the inclusion are induced by the crack-tip field and remotely applied stresses, and approximately evaluated by the Eshelby equivalent inclusion theory. As validated by detailed finite element (FE) analyses, the developed solutions have good accuracy for different inclusion shape and for a wide range of modulus ratio between inclusion and matrix material.     

Elimination of organic matter present in wastewaters from the cork industry by membrane filtration

BACKGROUND: The first stage of the cork industrial process generates great volumes of wastewater with moderate to high organic pollutant content that must be purified using different procedures, such as filtration by membranes. RESULTS: The tangential filtration of these wastewaters was studied using two different laboratory equipments. In the first one, three ultrafiltration (UF) membranes were tested, with molecular weight cut‐off (MWCO) 100 kDa and 30 kDa, and two operating modes were used: total recycling of permeate and retentate streams, and in continuous mode, without recycling both streams. In the total recycling UF experiments, the influence of the operating variables on the permeate flux was first established. The effectiveness of the different membranes was determined by evaluating the rejection coefficients for several parameters that measure the global pollutant content of the effluent. The values found for these rejection coefficients were in the following order: ellagic acid and color > absorbance at 254 nm > tannic content > COD (chemical oxygen demand). In the continuous mode experiments, the fouling mechanism for each membrane was established by fitting the experimental data to various filtration fouling models given in the literature. The operating mode in the second equipment was batch concentration, and additional experiments were carried out with an UF membrane (2 kDa), and with a NF membrane (with MWCO in the range 150–300 Da). CONCLUSIONS: The three operating modes tested provided different rejection levels of organic matter; among them, the most effective procedure tested was batch concentration mode using a NF membrane.

多测井曲线的综合处理合成

测井曲线是地质分层的基础，但在利用单一测井曲线解决复杂地质问题时也存在多解性和局限性。为克服多解性，人们采用多种测井曲线进行地质分层，提高了分层的精度。本文在此基础上提出把多条曲线分别赋予不同的加权因子，然后进行归一化处理，形成一条标准综合参数测井曲线。此综合参数曲线突出了所选的多条测井曲线的公共信息，减少或削弱了单一测井曲线中的偶然误差，提高了综合后测井资料的可信度。该方法可应用于地质分层、岩性分析、含油气预测等诸多领域。应用时要注意，并非所选择的测井曲线种类越多越好，而是要选择那些最能反映地层单元特征信息的测井曲线。     

S135钻杆钢在钻井液中的氧腐蚀行为

基于系统的理论分析和现场腐蚀产物的XRD分析,揭示了S135钻杆钢在3%NaCl溶液中的氧腐蚀机理。为研究腐蚀因素与腐蚀速率的关系,通过室内高压釜动态模拟实验,分别研究了钻井液中含氧量、钻井液温度、钻井液流速和钻井液盐浓度对S135钻杆钢的氧腐蚀速率影响规律。实验研究结果表明(1)3%NaCl盐水钻井液对S135钻杆钢的腐蚀主要是氧去极化作用所致;(2)钻井液含氧量和钻井液流速的增加会加快钻杆钢的氧腐蚀速率,而钻井液温度和含盐量对钻杆钢的氧腐蚀速率具有双重作用。     

Solving the small sample size problem in face recognition using generalized discriminant analysis

The goal of face recognition is to distinguish persons via their facial images. Each person's images form a cluster, and a new image is recognized by assigning it to the correct cluster. Since the images are very high-dimensional, it is necessary to reduce their dimension. Linear discriminant analysis (LDA) has been shown to be effective at dimension reduction while preserving the cluster structure of the data. It is classically defined as an optimization problem involving covariance matrices that represent the scatter within and between clusters. The requirement that one of these matrices be nonsingular restricts its application to datasets in which the dimension of the data does not exceed the sample size. For face recognition, however, the dimension typically exceeds the number of images in the database, resulting in what is referred to as the small sample size problem. Recently, the applicability of LDA has been extended by using the generalized singular value decomposition (GSVD) to circumvent the nonsingularity requirement, thus making LDA directly applicable to face recognition data. Our experiments confirm that LDA/GSVD solves the small sample size problem very effectively as compared with other current methods.

High training set size reduction by space partitioning and prototype abstraction

Instance-based learning methods like the nearest neighbour classifier generally suffer from the indiscriminate storage of all training instances, resulting in large memory requirements and slow execution speed. In this paper, new training set size reduction methods based on prototype generation and space partitioning are proposed. Experimental results show that the new algorithms achieve a very high reduction rate with still an important classification accuracy.
