离散元法在节理岩体爆破振动分析中的应用

采用自编的离散元刚性块体计算程序,模拟了不同药量时节理岩体中集中药包的爆破过程,计算所得垂直振动速度波形和频谱基本上满足试验测定波形的特点。对计算得到的最大垂直运动速度幅值和频谱进行拟合,结果与试验数据吻合较好。同时,计算结果显示,振动波与节理走向的夹角不同,垂直运动速度波幅值和主频的衰减规律也有所不同,这与真实岩体中波传播特性相符合。

Atmospheric turbulence mitigation using complex wavelet-based fusion

Restoring a scene distorted by atmospheric turbulence is a challenging problem in video surveillance. The effect, caused by random, spatially varying, perturbations, makes a model-based solution difficult and in most cases, impractical. In this paper, we propose a novel method for mitigating the effects of atmospheric distortion on observed images, particularly airborne turbulence which can severely degrade a region of interest (ROI). In order to extract accurate detail about objects behind the distorting layer, a simple and efficient frame selection method is proposed to select informative ROIs only from good-quality frames. The ROIs in each frame are then registered to further reduce offsets and distortions. We solve the space-varying distortion problem using region-level fusion based on the dual tree complex wavelet transform. Finally, contrast enhancement is applied. We further propose a learning-based metric specifically for image quality assessment in the presence of atmospheric distortion. This is capable of estimating quality in both full-and no-reference scenarios. The proposed method is shown to significantly outperform existing methods, providing enhanced situational awareness in a range of surveillance scenarios. © 1992-2012 IEEE.

A discretized proportional base driver for silicon carbide bipolar junction transistors

Silicon carbide (SiC) bipolar junction transistors (BJTs) require a continuous base current in the on-state. This base current is usually made constant and is corresponding to the maximum collector current and maximum junction temperature that is foreseen in a certain application. In this paper, a discretized proportional base driver is proposed which will reduce, for the right application, the steady-state power consumption of the base driver. The operation of the proposed base driver has been verified experimentally, driving a 1200-V/40-A SiC BJT in a dc-dc boost converter. In order to determine the potential reduction of the power consumption of the base driver, a case with a dc-dc converter in an ideal electric vehicle driving the new European drive cycle has been investigated. It is found that the steady-state power consumption of the base driver can be reduced by approximately 60%. The total reduction of the driver consumption is 3459 J during the drive cycle, which is slightly more than the total on-state losses for the SiC BJTs used in the converter. © 2013 IEEE.

黄土高原冬小麦田光谱特征变化及其与二氧化碳日收支的相关分析

根据光谱辐射仪对黄土高原冬小麦整个生育期光谱反射率的连续观测数据及CO2通量观测数据,对冬小麦田光谱特征变化及其与CO2日收支的相关性进行了分析.结果表明:冬小麦田不同波长光谱反射率和归一化植被指数(NDVI)呈现明显的日变化和季节变化.同一天内,反射率随太阳高度角的变化而变化,变化最大的波段(550nm左右、700～1050nm)表现为峰.不同生育期同一时刻,可见光波段(350～670nm)反射率变化不大,近红外波段(700～1050nm)出现较大差异,在出苗期、分蘖期和越冬期后红边位置向长波方向"红移";越冬期前出现向短波方向"蓝移"的现象;但成熟期"蓝移"现象不明显,表现为突变;其他生育时期没有观测到波谱位移.NDVI的日变化呈U型,13:00左右最低,16:00后出现较大波动,与抛物线有较好的拟合效果,小麦生长旺盛时期,对其地面遥感观测应选择在NDVI变化不大的13:00左右进行;整个冬小麦生长季11:00反射率及NDVI以播种后第140天为中心对称,NDVI的季节变化表现为M型,可用四次多项式拟合;在整个小麦生育期中NDVI与CO2的日收支呈极显著负相关,但正午左右的相关性稍差.

An estimate of the global emissions of methyl bromide from automobile exhausts

An estimate of the annual global methyl bromide (CH3Br) emissions from automobile exhausts has been determined by extrapolating the results of a field study conducted in the United Kingdom (UK). A strong linear correlation was observed between the CH3Br and carbon monoxide (CO) concentrations of roadside air in three cities. This correlation and knowledge of the UK CO emissions was used to estimate the source strength of CH3Br from automobile exhausts in the UK (0.04 ktonnes yr−1). Further extrapolations lead to a value of 1.5 ktonnes yr−1 (with an upper limit of 3.0 ktonnes yr−1) of CH3Br released globally to the atmosphere from automobile exhausts.

Common variants at the MHC locus and at chromosome 16q24.1 predispose to Barrett's esophagus

Barrett's esophagus is an increasingly common disease that is strongly associated with reflux of stomach acid and usually a hiatus hernia, and it strongly predisposes to esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC), a tumor with a very poor prognosis. We report the first genome-wide association study on Barrett's esophagus, comprising 1,852 UK cases and 5,172 UK controls in the discovery stage and 5,986 cases and 12,825 controls in the replication stage. Variants at two loci were associated with disease risk: chromosome 6p21, rs9257809 (P(combined) = 4.09 × 10(-9); odds ratio (OR) = 1.21, 95% confidence interval (CI) =1.13-1.28), within the major histocompatibility complex locus, and chromosome 16q24, rs9936833 (P(combined) = 2.74 × 10(-10); OR = 1.14, 95% CI = 1.10-1.19), for which the closest protein-coding gene is FOXF1, which is implicated in esophageal development and structure. We found evidence that many common variants of small effect contribute to genetic susceptibility to Barrett's esophagus and that SNP alleles predisposing to obesity also increase risk for Barrett's esophagus.
