Updating the East Asian mtDNA phylogeny: a prerequisite for the identification of pathogenic mutations

Knowledge about the world phylogeny of human mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is essential not only for evaluating the pathogenic role of specific mtDNA mutations but also for performing reliable association studies between mtDNA haplogroups and complex disorder

Reduction-Based Model Updating of a Scaled Offshore Platform Structure

This paper attempts to develop a reduction-based model updating technique for jacket offshore platform structure. A reduced model is used instead of the direct finite-element model of the real structure in order to circumvent such difficulties as huge degrees of freedom and incomplete experimental data that are usually civil engineers' trouble during the model updating. The whole process consists of three steps: reduction of FE model, the first model updating to minimize the reduction error, and the second model updating to minimize the modeling error of the reduced model and the real structure. According to the performance of jacket platforms, a local-rigidity assumption is employed to obtain the reduced model. The technique is applied in a downscale model of a four-legged offshore platform where its effectiveness is well proven. Furthermore, a comparison between the real structure and its numerical models in the following model validation shows that the updated models have good approximation to the real structure. Besides, some difficulties in the field of model updating are also discussed.

A Hybrid Scheme Based on Finite Element/Volume Methods for Two Immiscible Fluid Flows

We have successfully extended our implicit hybrid finite element/volume (FE/FV) solver to flows involving two immiscible fluids. The solver is based on the segregated pressure correction or projection method on staggered unstructured hybrid meshes. An intermediate velocity field is first obtained by solving the momentum equations with the matrix-free implicit cell-centered FV method. The pressure Poisson equation is solved by the node-based Galerkin FE method for an auxiliary variable. The auxiliary variable is used to update the velocity field and the pressure field. The pressure field is carefully updated by taking into account the velocity divergence field. This updating strategy can be rigorously proven to be able to eliminate the unphysical pressure boundary layer and is crucial for the correct temporal convergence rate. Our current staggered-mesh scheme is distinct from other conventional ones in that we store the velocity components at cell centers and the auxiliary variable at vertices. The fluid interface is captured by solving an advection equation for the volume fraction of one of the fluids. The same matrix-free FV method, as the one used for momentum equations, is used to solve the advection equation. We will focus on the interface sharpening strategy to minimize the smearing of the interface over time. We have developed and implemented a global mass conservation algorithm that enforces the conservation of the mass for each fluid.

Preliminary results of the updated LECR2 source-LECR2M

The Latest developed LECR2M (Lanzhou ECR No. 2 Modified) source is the updated one of LECR2 (Lanzhou ECR No. 2) source at IMP. It has been assembled on the low energy ion beam experimental platform to produce MCI beams for atomic physics and material physics experimental research. In our updating program, the structure of injection and extraction components has been modified to make the source structure more simple and effective. The hexapole magnet has also been replaced by a new hexapole magnet with higher radial field and larger inner diameter. With this updating, stronger magnetic field confinement of the ECR plasma is possible and better base vacuum condition is also achieved. LECR2M was designed to be operated at 14.5GHz. During the preliminary test, 1.3emA O6+ beam was extracted with the injected rf power of 1.1kW. The source has been used to deliver intense MCI beams for different experiments. After some discussion of the main features of this newly updated source, some of the typical commissioning test results of LECR2M will be presented.

双模式相关技术研究与实现

文中研究的相关跟踪技术主要应用于飞航导弹的末制导。现阶段，激光制导技术、GPS制导技术、合成孔径雷达（SAR）制导技术在我国的实际应用还不成熟，传统的电视、红外制导技术仍然具有很强的生命力，因而，基于可见光的视频相关跟踪技术具有重要的研究价值。本文主要论述的两种相关算法是：多灰度点相关（MPC）、区域模板相关（RTC）。其中多点相关（MPC）算法的跟踪灵敏度高，定位精度好，硬件实现比较方便，实时性能好；区域模板相关算法（RTC），在图像的匹配过程中，不仅考虑了目标区域的灰度特征，而且兼顾了区域里多灰度层次的位置特征、面积特征，算法具有很好的鲁棒性。文中深入研究了两种相关跟踪算法，并针对它们在实际应用中的不足，提出了有效的改善措施。最后，本文对两种相关跟踪算法进行了初步融合，一是：通过粗匹配、精匹配过程来选取目标跟踪点；二是：提出了一种度量模板更新的能量准则函数。大量的仿真实验结果表明：改进后的两种相关跟踪技术可以较好地完成一些复杂背景下的目标跟踪任务，两种算法的有效结合又进一步提高了目标跟踪的稳定性能和可靠性能。本文研究的一些相关跟踪技术已经运用到实际工程项目中。
