    This paper presents a direct numerical simulation study of the effect of bubble vertical eccentricity on the behavior of a hollow droplet impacting on a super-hydrophobic cylindrical target. Based on the topological changes the droplet undergoes during impact, four typical regimes are identified: direct rebound, breakup-retraction, continuous breakup, and top breakup. The transitions between these regimes are analyzed in relation to the dimensionless parameters including the Weber number and bubble eccentricity ratio. Furthermore, the temporal evolution of key physical quantities, such as the spreading ratio, velocity, and kinetic energy, is discussed for each regime. Quantitative analysis further reveals that, the maximum spreading ratio of the hollow droplet during impact is a non-monotonic function of the bubble’s vertical position within the range of parameters considered. For relatively large Weber numbers, a smaller degree of bubble eccentricity facilitates droplet spreading. On the other hand, the dimensionless rupture time demonstrates an approximately linear relationship with the bubble eccentricity ratio, while exhibiting only a weak correlation with the Weber number.

    Devices made of thermoelectric materials can realize the interconversion between heat and electricity, which is based on the Seebeck effect and the Peltier effect respectively, without any moving elements. Different from conventional metallic and inorganic thermoelectric materials, thermoelectric polymer composites possess good flexibility, decent stretchability, and healing ability, thus arousing ever-increasing interests among researchers because they are abundant, inexpensive, light-weighted, low-toxic or non-toxic, and thermally less conductive. Generally, thermoelectric polymer composites comprise nanomaterials which are usually carbon nanotubes, graphene, metal organic frameworks, MXenes, black phosphorus, etc. and conductive polymers which are typically polythiophene and its derivatives, polyaniline, and polypyrrole. Apart from traditional use of generating electricity from heat for thermoelectric materials, polymer composites acting as an indispensable complement to inorganic thermoelectric materials have combined advantages of conductive polymers and nanomaterials and are finding new applications in various sensors although their performance in certain aspects remains below that of conventional metallic and inorganic thermoelectric materials. New toolkits like artificial intelligence and machine learning have been introduced as effective ways in facilitating efficient design, preparation, and performance enhancement of thermoelectric polymer composites. It is expected that thermoelectric polymer composites will make great progress and demonstrate many broader application scenarios.

    In a fusion reactor environment characterized by significant temperature variations and intense magnetic fields, the Seebeck effect interacts with the magnetic field, propelling the flow of liquid metal to remove impurities and heat generated during the fusion reaction. This paper conducts experiments on thermoelectric convection driven by the Seebeck effect in a horizontal magnetic field. GaInSn and constantan serve as the experimental working substances. An ultrasonic Doppler velocimetry system meticulously measures the convection velocity in a closed cavity. Three thermoelectric convection modes are identified. At lower magnetic fields, thermoelectric effects dominate the convective mode, allowing for an approximation as a two-dimensional flow. With increasing magnetic field strength, the convective mode transitions to a three-dimensional pattern exhibiting variable velocity fluctuations. Subsequently, it converts to an approximate two-dimensional flow, influenced by the magnetic damping effect under strong magnetic fields. The Lorentz force, resulting from the interaction between the thermoelectric effect and the magnetic field, can enhance heat transfer. However, under stronger magnetic fields, it has an inhibiting effect on heat transfer.

    Numerical study on the flow around a cold cylinder at low Reynolds numbers

    Abstract ( 273 ) HTML ( 9 ) PDF (0KB) ( 0 )

    This article utilizes three-dimensional numerical simulations on the flow around a cold cylinder with a constant Reynolds number (Re=80) and a Richardson number (Ri) ranging from -5 to -0.5, to investigate the formation mechanism of the wake structure and the influence of buoyancy on the wake structure. The results indicate that within the range of -2.5≤Ri≤-0.5, the wake structure around the cold cylinder exhibits a consistent cyclic pattern due to the influence of buoyancy. As Ri reaches a certain threshold (e.g., Ri=-5), the cyclic pattern of the cold cylinder flow undergoes a change. With the decrease of Ri, the overall wake structure of the cold cylinder deflects in the direction of gravity, while the number of rib structures exhibits a non-monotonic variation, and the wall-attached flow of the cylinder wake intensifies. When Ri decreases to a certain threshold, flow separation occurs solely from beneath the cylinder. The lift and drag coefficients, along with the Nusselt number on the cylinder’s surface, increase monotonically as Ri decreases.

    Abstract ( 610 ) HTML ( 1 ) PDF (0KB) ( 0 )

    To investigate the nitrogen contribution of terrestrial ecosystems along Niyaqu, a Namco lake-entering river, and to determine the role of wetlands along the river in the riverine system, the spatial pattern of nitrogen transport was monitored and analysed. During the 2019-2021 growing season, we measured flow and nitrogen component concentrations at multiple cross sections along the Niyaqu River. The results showed that locations (or cross sections) had no significant effect on total nitrogen (TN), nitrate nitrogen, and ammonia nitrogen concentrations, but there were significant fluctuations observed interannually and in monthly dynamics. The mean of TN was (0.207±0.003) mg·L-1. The wetlands increased TN slightly by (0.022±0.002) mg·L-1P<0.05), but not nitrate nitrogen and ammonia nitrogen. Although terrestrial ecosystems recharge water along the way into the lake, TN throughout the river is slightly lower than the wet deposition level of inorganic N, which was reported to be 0.21-0.24 mg·L-1 in two multi-year studies at Namco Station. It could be concluded that terrestrial ecosystems along the Niyaqu River do not contribute additional nitrogen to Namco through the river.

    The configuration of low impact development (LID) facilities is crucial for restoring urban natural hydrological processes. Therefore, we conducted this study at the Yanqi Lake campus of University of Chinese Academy of Sciences. It utilized simulations based on five rainfall recurrence intervals to analyze peak surface runoff and total suspended solid (TSS) loads across various subcatchments. A comprehensive stormwater condition index was created to prioritize subcatchments for LID facility configuration. Based on the specific requirements for LID facilities and local geographic conditions, optimal types and area proportions of LID facilities were determined, leading to a strategic LID configuration plan. The plan included different spatial configurations of green roofs, rain gardens, vegetated swales, and permeable pavements, and their impact on reducing local and overall runoff and TSS was assessed. The results indicated that implementing this strategy could reduce total surface runoff and TSS loads by 16%-24% across the study area, showing the most significant reduction compared to other strategies. The effectiveness of rain gardens, permeable pavements, and vegetated swales in reducing runoff and pollution increased with their area proportion and remained stable under different rainfall recurrences. Green roofs showed increased pollution reduction with greater area coverage, though their runoff reduction effectiveness was greatly influenced by surface land cover, improving with increased green space. However, under heavy rainfall, the effectiveness of all types of LID facilities, as well as the overall strategy, was reduced, indicating the need for integrated management with the urban underground drainage network and water systems. These findings provide a crucial reference for the redevelopment and construction of the study area to better manage potential flooding and pollution disasters from extreme rainfall events.

    In the field of autonomous driving, accurate vehicle trajectory prediction plays a crucial role. While current deep learning-based algorithms have significantly improved the accuracy of vehicle trajectory prediction, they lack interpretability regarding the decision-making process of the algorithm. To address this issue, we incorporate prior knowledge into the deep learning-based algorithm and propose a trajectory prediction algorithm based on attention mechanisms. Diverging from traditional methods that add constraints for knowledge integration, we employ a tailored model architecture that embeds insights from the social force model to replicate the decision-making processes of drivers in complex traffic scenarios, thereby enhancing the interpretability of the predictions. Knowledge-infused trajectory prediction algorithm(KIT) leverages an attention mechanism to imitate drivers’ perception of their environment and uses a multilayer perceptron network for predicting accelerations influenced by the driver’s intentions, nearby traffic, and surrounding roads. The proposed method is validated on the Argoverse dataset, and the results indicate that KIT demonstrates superior predictive performance compared to current advanced trajectory prediction methods.

    The integration of low earth orbit (LEO) satellite with 5G in the mobile communication system presents extensive application prospects. To ensure effective establishment of communication links between users and base stations, as well as reliable data transmission, time-frequency synchronization technology plays a crucial role. However, traditional timing and frequency synchronization algorithms face limitations when dealing with millimeter wave frequency bands, large bandwidths, high Doppler frequency shifts and change rates, and low signal-to-noise ratios in low-orbit satellite channels. These limitations result in decreased estimation accuracy. For the uplink service data channel of a 5G-based low orbit satellite communication system, a joint timing and frequency synchronization algorithm based on weighted embedded synchronization sequences is proposed to improve the accuracy of timing and frequency offset estimation. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed timing and frequency synchronization algorithm outperforms traditional algorithms with comparable complexity in terms of synchronization performance.

    Fake reviews affect online consumers’purchasing decisions. Efficiently identifying fake reviews is a pressing issue in the current development of e-commerce. Traditional methods for detecting fake reviews are often influenced by variations in review text style, syntax, and context, resulting in lower accuracy. Although large language models (LLMs) can address this accuracy issue, their training process is typically time-consuming. To tackle this problem, we propose a novel method called CF-DRI (cluster-based fine-tuning for deceptive review identification). This method fine-tunes the pre-trained knowledge of LLMs by selecting clustered review samples, significantly enhancing the training efficiency for fake review identification. Compared to traditional methods, CF-DRI demonstrates superior performance with fewer fine-tuning samples. Experimental results on the Yelp.com dataset show that CF-DRI achieves a precision of 92.29% and a recall of 90.03% in fake review identification using only 20% of the clustered samples. This research provides new perspectives and solutions for managing fake reviews on e-commerce platforms, potentially promoting healthy industry development.

    3D real-time rendering technology has a wide range of applications. At present, 3D real-time rendering technology has problems such as high computational complexity and high storage overhead, making it difficult to efficiently run on the web side with limited resources. Therefore, researching lightweight 3D real-time rendering technology is of great significance. Edge collapse algorithm is a commonly used technology for lightweight 3D real-time rendering, but it has problems such as easy loss of edge features, single simplification rate, and low quality of the folded mesh that affect visual effects. In response to the above issues, this article proposes an efficient and lightweight method for 3D real-time rendering on the web side. Firstly, an edge collapse optimization algorithm based on 3D-SIFT feature extraction is proposed to freeze key areas and better preserve model edge features. Secondly, during the edge collapse process, local information entropy is introduced to modify the cost of edge collapse, prioritizing the processing of non-feature regions, thereby achieving hierarchical simplification of different feature regions. Finally, the Delaunay algorithm is introduced to reconstruct areas with poor triangular regularity, improving the quality of the mesh.

    Image stitching is a crucial prerequisite step for unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) remote sensing applications, while the stitched images using most of the current image stitching methods often suffer from large irregular boundaries and multiple stitching seams, which can seriously affect subsequent analysis and applications. Existing improved methods typically cannot simultaneously address these two issues, and integrating the two types of methods in sequence is a straightforward way to solve the two problems, while this often can not obtain satisfactory performance because of the inevitable error propagation problem. This paper proposes an inpainting method for the UAV image stitching task based on the denoising diffusion probability model (DDPM). The method uniformly designs masks for irregular boundaries and stitching seams, and a diffusion model is then utilized with manifold gradient prior constraints to complete the masked regions. By doing so, both irregular boundaries and stitching seams are simultaneously eliminated, thereby improving the quality of the stitching results. Comparative experiments are conducted using four datasets established for different scenarios. The experimental results demonstrated the efficacy of the proposed method in effectively eliminating irregular boundaries and seams in the image stitching. Moreover, from patches to pictures quality (PaQ-2-PiQ) and multi-scale image quality (MUSIQ) scores increased by 4.36% and 15.37%, respectively. Furthermore, at the locations of irregular boundaries, the structural similarity (SSIM) and peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) values improved by 20.22% and 33.69%, respectively. Compared with state-of-the-art methods and other conventional image stitching algorithms, the proposed method performs better in both subjective and objective quality metric scores, has good robustness and generalization, and can be widely applied to UAV image stitching scenarios.

    To address the problem of echo gain loss caused by range migration and Doppler frequency migration during long-time coherent accumulation of detection of high-speed maneuvering targets, a fast coherent integration algorithm based on K-adjacent pulse time-frequency double inversion transformation is proposed. By multiplying the distance-frequency and slow-time double-reversed conjugate signal of the Kth adjacent pulse signal with the target signal in the distance-frequency and slow-time domain, the across range unit and Doppler frequency migration in the signal can be simultaneously eliminated. At the same time, the time-frequency inversion cross-correlation algorithm is introduced as a supplement to estimate the target’s distance, velocity, and acceleration information through joint calculation. Finally, the compensation function is constructed to complete the focusing of echo energy on the distance-Doppler plane. Simulation results show that the proposed method can effectively estimate the second-order high-speed target motion parameters without any parameter search, with low computational complexity. Moreover, the K-adjacent pulse time-frequency dual inversion transformation and time-frequency inversion cross-correlation can be implemented in parallel to further improve the computational speed.

    An image preprocessing accelerator scheme based on lightweight and low-cost FPGA has been proposed in this paper to meet the accelerated processing requirements of the visual navigation image frontend. Through efficient pipeline design and parallel processing technology, the designed accelerator integrates key functions such as histogram equalization, FAST feature point detection, and multi-source sensor data time synchronization. This solution solves technical difficulties such as achieving multifunctional integration, meeting real-time requirements, balancing cost and performance, synchronizing multi-source sensor information time, and achieving software hardware collaborative design under limited hardware resources. The proposed solution is based on Xilinx's Zynq-7000 series lightweight FPGA implementation, which greatly reduces image processing latency while achieving low cost. When the FPGA operates at a frequency of 160 MHz, it achieves a processing speed of 150 frame/s for 1 280×720 images, providing a low-cost and high-performance visual navigation image front-end acceleration solution.

    Shape-dependent effects of nanoceria on the activity of Pd/CeO2 catalysts for CO oxidation
    WANG Lei, MAO Junyi, YUAN Qing, HUANG Tao
       2015, 32 (5): 594-604.   DOI: 10.7523/j.issn.2095-6134.2015.05.004

    The redox property of palladium nanoparticles (NPs) is pivotal to CeO2 supported Pd catalysts in oxidation reactions and is closely related to the structure of Pd-CeO2 interface. Herein, we report that low-temperature CO oxidation activity of Pd/CeO2 highly depends on the shape and crystal plane of CeO2 supports. Pd/CeO2 catalysts with CeO2 nanoocthedrons (NOCs) and nanocubes (NCs) as supports were prepared by colloidal-deposition method. Results show that Pd/CeO2 NOCs with ceria {111} facets enclosed exhibited much higher catalytic activity than Pd/CeO2NCs with ceria {100} facets exposed. DFT calculations revealed that the redox property of surface Pd species may play important roles in determining the reducibility and activity of catalysts. The PdOx to Pd cycle is more facile on Pd4@CeO2(111) than on Pd4@CeO2(100), which is dictated by the Pd-ceria interaction in the end. Our results show that the redox property of surface Pd is pivotal to the reducibility and activity of Pd/ceria catalysts, which could be tuned by manipulation of the Pd-CeO2 interaction via tuning the exposed facets of ceria support.

    GH3 genes belong to a primary auxin-response gene family. The 10 promoter sequences of Arabidopsis GH3 genes were analyzed using bioinformatics method. The results show that the transcription start site of these genes is generally 65~145bp away from the start codon, and the TATA boxes are located in the (-24)-(-40)bp. MDB and MatInspector analyses show that most upstream regions of these GH3 genes contain the cis-elements required for tissue and organ-specific expression responding to phytohormones and external environment, indicating that the expressions of GH3 genes are strictly controlled by multi-factors. Gene chip data show that AuxREs is very important for GH3 genes in response to IAA treatment,but it is not the unique cis-element for auxin response.

    The micron-grade PMMA microspheres with narrow size distribution were prepared by dispersion polymerization. The mechanism of the dispersion polymerization was discussed. The factors influencing both the size and size distribution of the microspheres including initial concentrations of the initiator, monomer, stabilizer, the polarity of the medium and the reaction conditions were studied. The results indicated that the size and size distribution of microspheres both increased with initial concentrations of initiator and monomer. Increasing the amount of the stabilizer resulted in decreasing size and narrowing size distribution of microspheres. Other factors such as the polarity of medium and the reaction temperature had great influences too. By controlling these factors, the desired-size monodisperse microspheres could be obtained.

    Textual document clustering is one of the effective approaches to establish a classification instance of huge textual document set. Clustering Validation or Quality Evaluation techniques can be used to assess the efficiency and effective of a clustering algorithm. This paper presents the quality evaluation criterions from outer and inner. Based on these criterions we take three typical textual document clustering algorithms for assessment with experiments. The comparison results show that STC(Suffix Tree Clustering) algorithm is better than k-Means and Ant-Based clustering algorithms. The better performance of STC algorithm comes from that it takes accounts the linguistic property when processing the documents. Ant-Based clustering algorithm’s performance variation is affected by the input variables. It is necessary to adopt linguistic properties to improve the Ant-Based text clustering’s performance.

    Responsive to dehydration (RD) is a class of genes that regulates dehydration in plants. They are functionally tolerant to plant dehydration, some of which are responsive to abiotic stresses such as low temperature and high salinity. However, they belong to different families, respectively, and have discrepancy in the structure and function. In this paper, the structural composition, conserved motif, regulatory mechanism, and the function in response to biotic and abiotic stress were summarized in different RDs, as well as the different cis-acting elements in the promoter region played a role in response to abiotic stress so as to provide relevant basis for future researches on RD.

    Gram-Schmidt algorithm is one of the fundamental methods in linear algebra, which is mainly used to compute QR decomposition. The classical and modified Gram-Schmidt are both based on level 1 or level 2 BLAS operations which have low cache reuse. In this paper, a new block Gram-Schmidt algorithm is proposed. The new algorithm ensures the orthogonality of resulting matrix Q is close to machine precision and improves performance because of using level 3 BLAS. Numerical experiments confirm the favorable numerical stability of the new algorithm and its effectiveness on modern computers.

    DBSCAN is a classic density-based clustering algorithm. It can automatically determine the number of clusters and treat clusters of arbitrary shapes. In the clustering process of DBSCAN, two parameters, Eps and minPts,have to be specified by uses. In this paper an adaptive algorithm named SA-DBSCAN was introduced to determine the two parameters automatically via analysis of the statistical characteristics of the dataset, which enabled clustering process of DBSCAN fully automated. Experimental results indicate that SA-DBSCAN can select appropriate parameters and gain a rather high validity of clustering.

    Uranium dioxide is a kind of steady nuclear fuel that has the characteristic of high melting point and steady property. The thermal conductivity of uranium dioxide can directly influence the temperature distribution of nuclear fuel and the max temperature of the center of nuclear fuel. The experimental results and expression of thermal conductivity have been compared in the paper. The deviation between the experiment results has decreased. The non-equilibrium molecular dynamics simulation results are in good agreement with the experiment results in medium temperature region. In low temperature region, it is necessary to add the quantum correction to the kinetic energy computation of phonon. In high temperature region, it is needed to use the accurate potential model and build up the electron gas energy transport model and photon radiation energy transport to study the thermal conductivity well and truly for the nuclear reactor safety design and uranium dioxide engineering application.

    Activated alumina (AA) is widely used for defluoridation. Batch experiments were carried out to investigate the influence of Cl- (1000 mg·L-1) and HCO3- (2000 mg·L-1) on adsorption kinetics of F- (10 mg·L-1) on AA in coalbed methane co-produced water (CBMW). The results show that in the presence of Cl- the adsorption rate and the equilibrium absorption capacity increase, but in the presence of HCO3- both the quantities decrease. These effects should be considered when one treats CBMW.

    Malicious applications pose tremendous threats to Android platform. More than 90% of malicious codes are introduced in the form of Android apps. Hence, behavior monitoring scheme for Android applications are required in order to resolve the problem. However, most of the schemes are based on system customization and hard to deploy on devices for Android's fragmentation problem. In this paper, an easy-to-deploy Android application monitoring method on the basis of process hijacking is proposed after analysis of Android process model and code execution details. The method depends on Dalvik interpreter entry point and system call interception. The authors created a fully usable prototype of the system, and the evaluation results show that the system is easy to deploy, provides a whole-scale behavior of Android applications, and incurs little performance overhead.

    Aiming at the rapid changes and complex relations in the stock market, this paper proposes a stock price prediction method based on individual stock news. First, through dynamic time warping algorithm,the benchmark sequence with the highest similarity to the target individual stock sequence is found, and then we can extract the length and time of news impact through smooth-and-abrupt change point model, which is converted into time series data. We introduce the relationship between stocks into time series forecasting through statistical models, examine the relationship between news influence and historical stock price data, and combine news influence with individual stock data for price forecasting by using long-and-short-term memory network. The results show that the stock sector’s influence of news in the technology sector is the most obvious. Compared to existing stock prediction methods, the prediction performance of the fusion model has been improved, and the prediction accuracy has decreased slightly over time. The fusion model can more accurately describe the changes in stock prices, achieving an average return of 14.50% under the conditions of simulating investment strategies.

    The production and supply of food are core components of sustainable development. Ensuring the sustainability of global food production and supply is crucial for maintaining human survival and socioeconomic stability, and it holds significant importance in advancing the “Zero Hunger” goal within the framework of global sustainable development. This paper selects the five key cereal crops, including wheat, barley, maize, oats, and rice, as the subjects of study, focusing on the Central Asian region. It analyzes the variations in yield per hectare, total production, and cultivated area for these cereals from 1992 to 2021, investigates regional disparities in food production fluctuations within Central Asia, and employs the ARIMA model to forecast future grain production in Central Asia. The results showed that: 1) From 1992 to 2021, the grain yield, total output and sown area in Central Asia showed a trend of first decreasing and then increasing, and the three changes ranged from 0.79~1.96 t/hm2, (0.14~0.37)×108 t and (0.14~0.23)×108 hm2, respectively. Grain yield and total production reached their peaks in 2011 at 1.96 t/hm2, and 0.37×108 t, respectively, while the cultivated grain area peaked in 1993 at 0.23×108 hm2. 2) The grain volatility in Central Asia is characterized by frequent fluctuations in grain production, with a significant proportion of years experiencing fluctuations exceeding 5%. The amplitude of these fluctuations is substantial, and the average fluctuation cycle is 2-4 years, indicating a short-term cyclical pattern dominated by classical rather than growth-oriented fluctuations. 3) In the coming years, Central Asia is projected to experience an upward trend in wheat, barley, maize, and oats production, while rice production is expected to decline. Compared to the year 2021, by 2030, Central Asia’s wheat, barley, maize, and oats production is estimated to increase by (410.15, 91.6, 795.26, and 8.91)×104 t, respectively, representing growth rates of 20.1%, 31%, 299.2%, and 37.1%. Conversely, rice production may decrease by 15.99×104 t, with a decline of 15.5%.

    Super-resolution technology has become an important tool for reconstructing high-resolution datasets and supplementing the shortage of high-resolution images with its characteristics of flexibility and low cost. Compared with natural images, remote sensing images of real scenes are complex and specific, which make super-resolution tasks more difficult. Meanwhile, for remote sensing images, traditional deep learning models can improve the resolution, but there is still a great deficiency of improvement for the details and textures of the ground objects. Therefore, based on the generative adversarial network model, this paper fuses channel-space attention to enhance the feature learning capability of the network and use an artifact suppression strategy to distinguish smooth regions from detail-rich regions, so that the network can focus more on detail-rich regions and suppress the generation of artifacts. Extensive experiments on GaoFen satellite data show that the quantitative metrics and visual quality of the method proposed in this paper are better than those of the current mainstream methods.

    This article takes 567 national level (168) and provincial level (511) traditional villages in Shandong Province as subjects of investigation. Firstly, a spatial econometric model is used to analyze the spatial distribution characteristics of traditional villages in Shandong Province. Secondly, the Delphi method and SPSS factor analysis method are used to screen and analyze the evaluation indicators. A total of 28 indicators including village cultural resources, village ecological and natural resources, institutional management, tourism infrastructure, and village economic vitality are obtained. Finally, the AHP entropy weight method is used to combine weights to score the selected indicators. A scoring table for tourism development potential of traditional villages in Shandong Province is constructed, and a multi-objective linear weighted function model is used for scoring. The results showed that: 1) The overall spatial distribution of traditional villages in Shandong Province is uneven, mostly distributed in mountainous areas or underdeveloped areas of cities with relatively uneven development and underdeveloped infrastructure; 2) Among various indicators, the cultural resources (0.331 2) and institutional management (0.144 0) of the village play an important role, followed by tourism infrastructure (0.143 7), village ecological and natural resources (0.143 4), and village economic vitality (0.097 7); 3) The evaluation results show that there are 135 key traditional villages (S≥7.9) in Shandong Province, accounting for only 23.81% of the total number of traditional villages in Shandong Province; there are 295 traditional villages (6.2<S<7.9), accounting for 52.03% of the total number of traditional villages in Shandong Province; there are 137 traditional villages with a focus on protection (S≤6.2), accounting for 24.16% of the total number of traditional villages in Shandong Province; 4) Based on the characteristics of various traditional villages, corresponding development strategies are proposed in this paper.

    The space exploration missions for precise attitude control and orbit adjustment require spacecraft propulsion systems with micro-thrust, high precision, and wide-range continuous adjustment. The cusp-type Hall thruster has the characteristics of simple structure, large thrust range, low power consumption and long working life. This paper proposes a micro-newton cusp Hall thruster with narrower channel and stronger magnetic field. Under micro-flow rate conditions, the narrower channel increases the density of the propellant in the discharge chamber, and the stronger magnetic field improves the confinement efficiency of electrons. This promotes the collision ionization process between electrons and propellant atoms, and the stable thrust of the thruster output is realized. The experimental results show that the flow range(propellant is Xe) is 0.5-1.0 sccm, the voltage range is 0-300 V, the thrust range reaches 5.4-518.9 μN. The response time is better than 150 ms, and the thrust noise reaches 0.1 μN/Hz1/2 at 0.05-1 Hz. When the flow rate of propellant Xe is 0.5 sccm and the voltage is 500 V, the thrust output reaches 50 μN and the specific impulse reaches 104 s. By optimizing the magnetic field design, the performance of this type of micro-newton cusp Hall thruster can be further improved, which can meet the requirements of space exploration missions.

    The area of volcanic and plutonic rocks in the Greater Khingan Range accounts for about 75%, characterized by the development of copper, molybdenum, tin, lead zinc, gold and silver, and rare metal minerals related to magmatic and hydrothermal activities. The middle section of the Greater Khingan Range, where the Potoushan Kaolin Deposit is located, mainly develops a compound mineralization system consisting of porphyry type mineralization, epithermal type mineralization, cryptoexplosive breccia type mineralization, and skarn type mineralization, but its overall exploration level is relatively low. Samples from the mining pit and shallow drill cores of the Potoushan kaolin mine have been identified minerals such as kaolinite, dikaite, alunite, pyrophyllite, microveined quartz, chalcedony quartz, sericite, chlorite, boehmite, gypsum, barite, pyrite, sphalerite, tellurite, pyrargyrite, cinnabar, limonite, etc., with the characteristic of developing low-temperature advanced argillation such as kaolinization, dickitization, alunitization, clayification, and silicification (chalcedony quartz), belonging to the top lithocap of deep porphyry-epithermal system. Based on the identified typical altered minerals, trace metal minerals, and four types of hydrothermal breccia within the mining area, it is speculated that there may be a potential ore bearing magma-hydrothermal system in the deep of Potoushan lithocaps. For the Greater Khingan Range, the extensive magmatic activity from the Paleozoic to Mesozoic and the moist and thick forest cover provided sufficient conditions for the development and preservation of lithocaps. It is suggested that future geological research and exploration work should pay more attention to lithocap for discovering more lithocaps, identifying their altered minerals, and researching their genetic mechanisms, to provide theoretical supports for further exploration of potential ore bearing magma-hydrothermal systems in the region.

    Urban street view imagery, as crucial forms of spatial data, has a wide range of applications in mapping services, urban 3D reconstruction, and cartography. However, since the collected street view images often face challenges such as distracting target occlusion and privacy concerns, necessitating meticulous preprocessing. Addressing these challenges, we propose an image inpainting algorithm based on multi-scale semantic priori guided for generating more realistic and natural static street view images. Firstly, a semantic prior network is designed to learn the multi-scale semantic priors of the missing regions of the input image to enhance the contextual information. The semantic enhancement generator adaptively fuses the multi-scale semantic priors and image features and at the same time introduces a multilevel attention shifting mechanism to refine the texture information of the image. Finally, a Markov discriminator is adopted to distinguish the generated image from the real image by adversarial training, which makes the reconstructed street scene image more realistic. Experiments on the Apolloscape dataset demonstrate that the images generated by our algorithm have achieved significant improvements in semantic structural coherence and detailed texture, solving the privacy problem in street view while providing a more reliable data base for realistic city applications.

    Abstract1620)      PDF(pc) (7636KB)(1215)       Save
    The coordinated development of regional economy-resource-environment system (ERE) is a crucial aspect of achieving the sustainable development goals. Taking Binzhou City in Shandong Province, a typical city in the Yellow River Delta, as an example, this paper constructs a coupling coordination degree model and examines the coupled and coordinated development of its ERE system from 2000 to 2020. Furthermore, a system dynamics (SD) model of Binzhou City’s ERE is constructed based on 71 indicators, through which causal feedback relationships and flows among subsystems are illustrated. Four scenarios are set for simulation as follows: current trend continuing mode, secondary industry leading mode, resource and environment prioritizing mode, and system coordinated mode. The results show that: 1) Over the past 20 years, the level of coupled and coordinated development in Binzhou City has been increasing year by year, and the type of coupled and coordinated development has gradually transitioned from an unbalanced state to a well-coordinated state, but there is still instability in the ERE; 2) Through SD parameter calculation and multi-scenario simulation analysis of Binzhou City’s ERE, it is pointed out that continuing the current development model cannot achieve high-quality sustainable development in Binzhou City. Therefore, a coordinated and stable development model, which takes economic, resource, and environmental benefits into account, is suggested as the relatively optimal solution for Binzhou City to achieve sustainable development in the long run.

    The convergence of broadband LEO satellite communication systems with 5G is the development trend of satellite communication. To meet the demand for high-speed data transmission, multibeam technology based on large-scale digital phased arrays is indispensable. The peak-to-average ratio problem of multibeam signals induces the non-linear distortion of onboard power amplifiers, while the non-linear distortion of power amplifiers leads to serious interference between multibeams. A digital pre-distortion structure for multibeam is proposed for low-orbit satellite communication systems using large-scale phased arrays. A pre-distortion model is developed to solve the problems of non-linearity, intermodulation distortion and multibeam interference. Through simulation experiments, it is found that the proposed structure is more advantageous than the traditional pre-distortion structure in terms of performance and complexity balance, providing a feasible solution for the implementation of multibeam and overcoming non-linearity on board.

    Forest cover information extraction is one of the essential tasks in forest remote sensing applications, which is of great significance for forest resource management, ecological environment protection, and climate change research. Traditional convolutional neural network-based methods can effectively extract local features, but struggle to capture long-range dependencies and global context information. To address this issue, we propose a method for forest cover information extraction that fuses Transformer and UNet, referred to as DiUNet. This approach embeds Transformer modules into the UNet network to enhance its perception of long-range dependencies and global context information. Meanwhile, considering the fragmentation, irregularity, and inconsistent scale of forest cover information, our method enhances the model’s ability to capture spatial information by using relative position encoding to increase the positional information, enabling the model to capture features at different levels and scales. We constructed a forest cover information dataset based on Landsat 8 and CDL data layers and conducted in-depth experimental analyses on this dataset. In the comparative experiments, DiUNet achieved the best results in accuracy, recall, F1 score, intersection-over-union, and frequency-weighted intersection-over-union indices, which were 91.22%, 92.66%, 91.94%, 85.08%, and 81.65%, respectively. The model also performed well in generalization experiments. The experimental results show that the DiUNet method outperforms existing methods in forest cover information extraction and has high robustness and generalization capabilities.

    The identification of paleo-cropping layers is an essential part of the study of the origins of agriculture and the exploration of ancient human land use. It is a challenge that archaeologists and palaeoenvironmentalists are facing together. The existing methods of identifying ancient cultivation layers are costly and limited, and there is an urgent need to develop new, simple, convenient, and reliable methods to identify ancient cultivation layers. Farming without irrigation, using plows to turn the land, once occurred in Beijing’s Dongling Mountain and continued for at least 300 years before retiring. There are also natural meadows and broadleaf forests in the area with no tillage history. In this study, four types of soil profiles, namely natural meadow, natural broadleaf forest, abandoned farming meadow, and abandoned farming broadleaf forest, were compared in terms of their soluble salt content, pH, magnetic susceptibility, and color characteristics in order to establish a method for identifying ancient cultivation layers. It was found that the soluble salt content in the abandoned farming soil profile was significantly lower than that in the natural profile, and the coefficient of variation was also significantly lower than that in the natural profile. The soluble salt content and its coefficient of variation can be used to identify ancient tillage layers without irrigation. Soil magnetic susceptibility and pH also have potential value in identifying ancient cultivation layers, and further in-depth studies are needed.

    This paper proposes a multi-spectral remote sensing image sharpening method based on a deep convolutional neural network and residual network. The method addresses the problems of spectral distortion in traditional remote sensing image sharpening methods and insufficient information utilization between network layers in current deep learning-based methods. The proposed method uses the depth convolution and residual network to design the depth residual module to extract the spatial and spectral features of the deep image. Additionally, residual connections between sub-blocks are established to transmit gradient information to deeper networks and avoid gradient explosion problems, making the network more efficient. Experiments are conducted on simulated and real-world multi-spectral images from WorldView-2, and the results are compared with traditional and existing deep learning-based methods. The proposed method improves the spectral distortion phenomenon and learns deeper image features to better preserve the spatial and spectral information of the image. The proposed method outperforms the deep convolutional sharpening network method in terms of various evaluation metrics, including ERGAS, SAM, SCC, UIQI, and the global fusion quality evaluation index. The proposed method improves these metrics by 24.4%, 26.7%,6.2%,4.7%, and 6.3%, respectively. Subjective and objective evaluations and spectral curve also indicate that the proposed method significantly improves the spatial and spectral resolution of remote sensing images, especially under complex environmental conditions.

    This paper addresses the research challenges in unmanned aerial vehicle communication networks, including significant interference among multiple users, high complexity of dynamic models, and the difficulty in designing real-time optimal control strategies. For the first time, the multi-antenna technology is introduced into the quadcopter unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) communication network, proposing a complex communication network model under the 3D multi-user multiple-input single-output scenario. This model takes into account the small-scale variations of UAV attitudes and their impact on channel quality. Additionally, the space division multiple access technology is employed to effectively mitigate inter-user interference model predictive control. In this context, an online UAV attitude control and resource allocation strategy based on model predictive control(MPC) algorithm is designed. By iteratively solving the open-loop control problem with a rolling window of limited time duration, the average spectral efficiency of the UAV communication system is maximized. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed coupled communication model significantly improves system gains, and the control strategy efficiently optimizes UAV flight trajectories and allocates communication resources in dynamic environments.

    CAO Sha, YAN Mengxue, REN Mei, ZHANG Yu
    Journal of University of Chinese Academy of Sciences    2025, 42 (3): 339-349.   DOI: 10.7523/j.ucas.2023.078

    The study uses factor analysis, coupled coordination degree model, the Theil index, vector autoregression model, and other methods, and combines geographic spatial expressions to make a specific analysis of the coordinated benefits of China’s regional innovation capacity and economic development level as well as the dynamic evolution process of the two from 2002 to 2020. The results found that: 1) From 2002 to 2020, China’s regional innovation capacity and economic development level showed a synchronous growth trend, and the coupling coordination changed from weak to strong, roughly going through a temporal evolution process of “lagging coordination (2002-2006) → coordinated transition (2008-2010) → coordinated development (2012-2020) ”, showing the stage characteristics of tending to high-quality coordination transition. 2) Spatially, the degree of coupling coordination decreases from the coast to the interior, showing obvious characteristics of a step-like distribution. The Theil index fluctuates between 0.033 6 and 0.071 2, with small regional spatial differences and a decreasing trend. The disparity between groups is more significant than the disparity within groups. The intra-group gap and the contribution rate of the eastern and western regions are significantly higher than those of the central and northeastern regions, and both have a stronger influence on the overall geographical differences across the country. 3) There is a long-term stable equilibrium relationship between regional innovation capacity and economic development level, and regional innovation capacity is not the Granger cause of economic development level, but regional innovation capacity has a more significant contribution to China’s economic development level, and its contribution rate to economic development level is over 50%.

    Regime shifts and their underlying mechanisms in ecosystems are a critical issue in ecological research, with profound implications for predicting ecological risks under global change. This review systematically synthesizes the theoretical advances in alternative stable state (ASS) of ecosystem multi-stability, focusing on three key dimensions: micro-macro process coupling, mechanisms of threshold response, and the role of regulatory nodes in ecosystem resilience. By integrating methodologies such as ASS theory, potential landscape modeling, and bifurcation analysis, we highlight how climate change and anthropogenic activities are driving critical ecosystems (e.g., coral reefs, Amazon rainforest, Arctic permafrost) toward tipping points, while hysteresis effects and irreversible potentials exacerbate recovery challenges. Emerging approaches combining network theory and energy (carbon) flux analysis offer novel insights for cross-scale early warning, yet bridging micro-scale mechanisms with macro-scale patterns remains a critical challenge. This review provides a theoretical framework for ecological threshold management and underscores the urgent need for interdisciplinary approaches to address planetary-scale regime shift risks.

    The potential of light detection and ranging (LiDAR) technology in the application of individual tree segmentation and parameter estimation in desert Haloxylon ammodendron forests has not been explored. This study uses UAV LiDAR data to extract canopy height models (CHM) at spatial resolutions of 0.1, 0.25, 0.5, and 1 m on different interpolation methods, and applies the CHM seed point segmentation algorithm to segment individual trees in three types of Haloxylon ammodendron plots with different growth conditions. This study evaluates the impact of spatial resolution and growth conditions on segmentation accuracy, and verifies the extraction accuracy of tree height and crown width with field measurement data. The results show that the inverse distance weighting interpolation has a higher segmentation accuracy in this study. Spatial resolution is a key factor affecting the results of individual tree segmentation, with the best segmentation results obtained at a resolution of 0.25 m.Class III plots had the highest segmentation accuracy, which was 27% higher than that of Class II plots and 44% higher than that of Class I sample plots. The overlapping crowns of Haloxylon ammodendron in plot I make it difficult to distinguish the crown boundaries, while the independent crowns in plot III make it easier to achieve accurate segmentation. The R2 of the tree height fitting model for all three types of plots is around 0.80, with RMSE less than 0.31 m. The R2 of the canopy extraction fit for the Class I and II plots is around 0.70, with a slightly higher RMSE error, and the branches in a half dead state of Haloxylon ammodendron in plot III affect the extraction accuracy of crown width. This study demonstrates that LiDAR data has great potential for individual tree segmentation in desert Haloxylon ammodendron forests, which can provide data support for desert forests carbon sink estimation in Xinjiang.

    Journal of University of Chinese Academy of Sciences    2025, 42 (3): 382-391.   DOI: 10.7523/j.ucas.2023.054

    Low earth orbit (LEO) communication satellites can break through terrain constraints and work with 6G to build an integrated space-ground information network. In terms of the beam scheduling problem of satellites for fixed terminals on the ground, a beam scheduling strategy that can achieve dual optimization of interference and delay is proposed, considering that the uneven distribution of global user demands exists. The model with the optimization goal of minimizing the queuing delay and co-channel interference is constructed, combining with constraints such as transmit power as well as carrier-to-noise ratio. By means of step-by-step optimization, a beam-hopping scheme including demand clustering, time slot allocation and beam position matching is designed. When it comes to the interference optimization problem in the beam position matching process, a genetic algorithm-based chromosome crossover mechanism of “beam position self-crossover within a cluster” is proposed. The simulation results show that the improved genetic algorithm can reduce the co-channel interference by 32% to 58% compared with the other algorithms. Besides, the proposed strategy can schedule the beam within the resource allocation period while achieving dual optimization of delay and interference.

    Oil compatibility and characteristics of insulating paper materials for new energy vehicle drive motors
    LIU Rui, ZHANG Shengde, WANG Zhenxing
    Journal of University of Chinese Academy of Sciences    2025, 42 (3): 322-327.   DOI: 10.7523/j.ucas.2024.022

    According to the T/CEEIA 415 standard, taking the drive motor slot insulating material as the research object, three kinds of interstitial aramid insulating papers with 0.25 mm thickness are selected for the oil compatibility test, and based on the changes of the physical, chemical, electrical, and mechanical properties of the insulating paper surfaces in different cycles, the degree of damage and the degradation factors of the materials are elaborated in detail. The results indicate that in the oil compatibility test, the porous structure and surface capillarity enhance the densification of the paper-based structure in the short term, which is beneficial to the electrical performance. However, with the increase of the test time, the diffusion of moisture in the automatic transmission fluid in the oil-paper insulating system is intensified, which triggers the formation of insulating defects and results in the attenuation of the mechanical strength. When screening insulation materials, changes in mechanical properties are more intuitive and accurate. In addition, due to the destruction of the hydrogen bond stabilizing configuration, the amide bond and the C=O bond strength are changed, and the dielectric properties of the lower density paper deteriorate significantly.

    Thermal insulation performance and mechanical characteristics of clay-based foamed polymeric soil subgrade materials
    Yang ZHAO, Zheng LU, Jie LIU, Rong ZHANG, Tingzhou YAN, Chuxuan TANG, Jian LI

    The use of excavated soil from highway construction sites to produce foamed polymeric soil, employed as a thermal insulation layer for seasonally frozen subgrades, not only achieves comprehensive resource utilization but also mitigates frost damage to the subgrades. Based on the excavated soil along the Urumqi Ring Expressway, combined with cement and foam, the foamed polymeric soil with porous insulation properties was developed. The influences of wet density, soil admixture, and water-cement ratio on the thermal conductivity, unconfined compressive strength, and stiffness of foamed polymeric soil were systematically investigated, establishing an intrinsic connection between pore structure and macroscopic performance. The research findings indicate that when the density of foamed polymeric soil increases from 600 kg/m³ to 1 200 kg/m³, its thermal conductivity approximately doubles, strength increases by about 3.95 times, and modulus increases by approximately 10.5 times. Compared to traditional subgrade soil, the thermal conductivity of foamed polymeric soil is significantly reduced by 52%-96.4%. Further analysis of the pore structure reveals that as the pore size of foamed polymeric soil within a unit volume decreases, the proportion of the skeleton increases correspondingly, while the volume of air pores decreases. This microstructural change manifests as improved thermal insulation performance (i.e., reduced thermal conductivity) and significant enhancement in mechanical properties (including strength and stiffness) at the macroscopic level. Foamed polymeric soil not only demonstrates better thermal insulation performance but also exhibits strong mechanical characteristics, providing a suitable solution for the thermal insulation layer of seasonally frozen subgrades.
