轻骨料混凝土抗碳化性能及微结构分析

为了探究轻骨料混凝土抗碳化性能及微结构,采用绝对体积法配制全轻骨料混凝土(ALWAC)和次轻骨料混凝土(SLWAC),并与普通混凝土(NC)比对,测试混凝土在各龄期下的碳化深度,通过MIP压汞测试对比研究NC和ALWAC碳化前后微细观孔结构变化。结果表明:轻骨料混凝土特有的内养护效果,轻骨料周围水泥石日趋密实,因而ALWAC和SLWAC较NC抗碳化性能优,且随碳化时间增长碳化速率显著降低;微结构分析表明经历28 d快速碳化试验后,NC和ALWAC孔隙率分别由14.36%、30.33%下降至13.53%、28.70%,定量说明了碳元素入侵造成大量孔隙被填充细化,与水泥水化产物反应生成CaCO₃,孔径减小,密实度增加。最后给出了基于陶粒掺量的轻骨料混凝土碳化深度预测模型。研究成果可为轻骨料混凝土耐久性预测提供参考。     

Comparison of soil moisture at different depths for drought monitoring based on improved soil moisture anomaly percentage index

To better understand the characteristics and mechanisms of droughts at different drought stages, this study selected the Xiangjiang River Basin in China as the study area, and evaluated soil moisture (SM) at different depths for drought monitoring, through SM data simulated with the variable infiltration capacity (VIC) model. To solve the problem of unreasonable drought/wetness classifications based on the soil moisture anomaly percentage index (SMAPI), an improved soil moisture anomaly percentage index (ISMAPI) was developed by introducing the Box–Cox transformation. The drought/wetness frequency generated by ISMAPI demonstrated preferable spatial comparability in comparison with those from SMAPI. The lag time of ISMAPI relative to the standardized precipitation evapotranspiration index was closely related to soil depth, and was characterized by a fast response in shallow soil layers and a relatively slow response in deep soil layers. SM in shallow soil layers provided a measure for monitoring short-term droughts, whereas SM in deep soil layers provided a better measure for long-term persistent drought events. Furthermore, the occurrence and mitigation time of drought events identified by SM in deep soil layers usually lagged behind that identified by SM in shallow soil layers. Compared with deep SM, SM in shallow soil layers responded faster to meteorological anomalies, thereby resulting in shorter periods of SM persistence in shallow soil layers than in deep soil layers. This can explain the differences of SM at different depths in drought monitoring.     

Dependence tree structure estimation via copula

We propose an approach for dependence tree structure learning via copula. A nonparametric algorithm for copula estimation is presented. Then a Chow-Liu like method based on dependence measure via copula is proposed to estimate maximum spanning bivariate copula associated with bivariate dependence relations. The main advantage of the approach is that learning with empirical copula focuses on dependence relations among random variables, without the need to know the properties of individual variables as well as without the requirement to specify parametric family of entire underlying distribution for individual variables. Experiments on two real-application data sets show the effectiveness of the proposed method.     

Prediction of scouring around an arch-shaped bed sill using Neuro-Fuzzy model

In this study, Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) has been used to model local scouring depth and pattern scouring around concave and convex arch shaped circular bed sills. The experimental part of this research study includes seven sets of laboratory test cases which were performed in an experimental flume under different flow conditions. A data set consists of 2754 data points of scouring depth were collected to use in the ANFIS model. The ratio of arch diameter, D, to flume width, W, is used as a non dimensional variables in all test cases. The results from ANFIS model were compared with the results of ANN model obtained by Homayoon et al. [24] and previously presented models. The results indicated that for D/W equal to 1 and 1.2, the ANFIS models produced a good performance for convex and concave bed sills. As a result, the ANFIS models can be used as an alternative to ANN for estimation of scour depth and scour pattern around a concave bed sill installed with a bridge pier.     

Parametric study of the electrical to thermal power conversion in an inductively coupledrf plasma torch

An inductively coupled (ic) radio-frequency (rf) stabilized argon plasma was generated in a quartz tube using a 7 MHzrf generator. The electrical and thermal powers were measured and the efficiency of energy conversion was computed. The results indicate that for a constant power input, there is an optimum argon flow rate for which maximum energy conversion efficiency occurs.

对于复杂微细、错边量小的激光焊接拼缝测量,现有的视觉传感器方法不能稳定、可靠地提取出拼缝的中心位置、拼缝宽度等信息。为此,提出了基于微景深的激光焊接对接拼缝测量方法,该方法采用高倍光学放大镜头、工业CCD(Charge Coupled Device)/CMOS(Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Transistor)相机和LED(Light-Emitting Diode)外部照明装置,以光学成像光轴与被测表面法矢呈45°的方式,组成的对接拼缝的非接触测量系统,既解决了显微放大时景深很小、测量范围小的问题,又解决了狭窄拼缝高光学放大倍数拼缝检测的难题。实验结果表明,该系统可快速准确地提取出拼缝中心坐标、拼缝宽度以及拼缝局部表面法矢。拼缝宽度测量精度优于5 μm,拼缝中心测量精度优于6 μm,可识别的最小拼缝宽度为0.02 mm,完全满足激光焊接对接狭窄拼缝的检测与自动跟踪的要求。
