Remote intelligent identification system of structural damage

The focus of this paper is to build the damage identify system, which performs “system identification“ to detcct the positions and extents of structural damages. The identification of structural damage can be characterized as a nonlinear process which linear prediction models such as linear regression are not suitable. However. neural network techniques may provide an effective tool for system identification. The method of damage identification using the radial basis function neural network (P, BFNN) is presented in this paper. Using this method, a simple reinforced concrete structure has been tested both in the absence and presence of noise. The resuits show that the RBFNN identification technology can he used with related success for the solution of dynamic damage identification problems, even in the presence of a noisy identify data. Furthermore, a remote identification system based on that is set up with Java Technologies.     

A stereotaxic method and apparatus for the Gekko gecko

To study the modulation mechanism of the middle brain of the Gekko to the locomotion, we introduced a stereotaxic method first in literature and developed an apparatus suitable for Gekko gecko, the big-gest wall and ceiling climber in nature. We defined the bregma and nasal points as reference points, selected the bilateral infraorbital margin and top point of the maxillary tooth for locating and fixing, and set up the line passing through the bregma and paralleling to a line connecting the bilateral infraorbital margin as x axis. Then, we defined a horizontal plane in the stereotaxic instrument, passing through x axis and the certain point which is 4.8 mm exactly above the nasal point, as the XOY plane; the sagittal plane, i.e. the YOZ plane, is the plane which is perpendicular to x axis and passes through the bregma; the plane, i.e. the XOZ plane, which passes through x axis and is perpendicular to the horizontal plane is the coronal plane. We designed a set of head holder which includes three parts: bilateral infraorbital margin clamps, a gecko adaptor holding the rostral side of the upper jaw. The allocation and operation of the head holder is accurate and simple, and the device is low in cost and compatible with standard stereotaxic instrument.

在本科计算机教育中面向能力培养的教学模式

The rapid development of software industry is promoting the requirements of computing professionals. This poses a challenge for undergraduate education as graduates are commonly lack of practical skills and experiences. Teaching transformation is more urgent than ever to bridge the gap between university and industry. So we establish a curriculum particular for practical skills training and experiment teaching, and put forward an open experiment teaching model. In addition, we set up a talents training base in collaboration with industry and work out three cooperative modes. It reaches the expected objects and realizes trilateral wins of university, graduates and industry.

The author examines these taboos from various angles as follow: i...     

Intrusion Detection Method for Program Vulnerability via Library Calls

Library function call sequence is the direct reflection of a program＇s behavior. The relationship between program vulnerability and library calls is analyzed, and an intrusion detection method via library calls is proposed, in which the short sequences of library call are used as signature profile. In this intrusion detection method, library interposition is used to hook library calls, and with the discussion of the features of the library call sequence in detail, an algorithm based on information-theory is applied to determine the appropriate length of the library call sequence. Experiments show good performance of our method against intrusions caused by the popular program vulnerabilities.     

Agents and Lattice-valued Logic

In fuzzy set theory, instead of the underlying membership set being a two -valued set it is a multi-valued set that generally has the structure of a lattice L with a minimal element O and the maximal element I. Furthermore if ∧, ∨, → and ┐ are defined in the set L, then we can use these operations to define, as in the ordinary set theory, operations on fuzzy subsets. In this paper we give a model of the Lattice-Valued Logic with set of agents.Any agents know the logic value of a sentence p. The logic value is compatible with all of the accessible conceptual models or worlds of p inside the agent. Agent can be rational or irrational in the use of the logic operation.Every agent of n agents can have the same set of conceptual models for p and know the same logic for p in this case the agents form a consistent group of agents.When agents have different conceptual models for p,different subgroup of agents know different logic value for p. In this case the n agents are inconsistent in the expression of the logic value for p. The valuation structure of set of agents can be used as a semantic model for the Lattice-valued Logic and fuzzy logic.     

Self powered systems by nanogenerators and smart MEMS by piezotronics

Developing wireless nanodevices and nanosystems is of critical importance for sensing, medical science, environmental/infrastructure monitoring, defense technology and even personal electronics. It is highly desirable for wireless devices to be self powered without using battery, without which most of the sensor network may be impossible. The piezoelectric nanogenerators have the potential to serve as self sufficient power sources for micro/nano systems. For wurtzite structures that have non central symmetry, such as ZnO, GaN and InN, a piezoelectric potential (piezopotential) is created in the crystal by applying a strain. The nanogenerator is invented by using the piezopotential as the driving force for electrons to flow in respond to a dynamic straining of piezoelectric nanowires. A gentle straining can produce an output voltage of up to 20～50 V from an integrated nanogenerator. Furthermore, piezopotential in the wurtzite structure can serve as gate voltage that can effectively tune/control the charge transport across an interface/junction; electronics fabricated based on such a mechanism is coined as piezotronics, with applications in force/pressure triggered/controlled electronic devices, sensors, logic units and memory. By using the piezotronic effect, it is showed that the optoelectronic devices fabricated using wurtzite materials can have superior performance as solar cell, photon detector and light emitting diode. Piezotronic is likely to serve as “mechanosensation” for directly interfacing biomechanical action with silicon based technology and active flexible electronics. The paper gives a brief review about the basis of nanogenertors and piezotronics and their potential applications in smart MEMS (micro electro mechanical systems).     

Cloning and characterization of a glucose 6-phosphate／phosphate translocator from Oryza sativa

Plastids of nongreen tissues import carbon as a source of biosynthetic pathways and energy, and glucose 6-phosphate is the preferred hexose phosphate taken up by nongreen plastids. A cDNA clone encoding glucose 6-phosphate/phosphate translocator (GPT) was isolated from a cDNA library of immature seeds of rice and named as OsGPT. The cDNA has one uninterrupted open reading frame encoding a 42 kDa polypeptide possessing transit poptide consisting of 70 amino acid residues. The OsGPT gene maps on chromosome 8 of rice and is linked to the quantitative trait locus for 1000-grain weight. The expression of OsGPT is mainly re-stricted to heteretrephic tissues. These results suggest that glucose 6-phosphate imported via GPT can be used for starch biosynthesis in rice nongreen plastids     

Active set strategy of optimized extreme learning machine

Extreme learning machine （ELM） has been introduced as a simple and efficient learning approach for regression and classification applications. From the opti- mization point of view, optimized ELM is equivalent to SVM, but with less constraints in the optimization formu- lation and random ELM kernel. This paper introduces an active set based optimized ELM approach to solve bound constrained optimization problem in a straightforward way, which operates on a small working set of variables at each iteration. Thus, the constrained problem can be eventually solved by an unconstrained algorithm, and this enables us to establish a global convergence theory. The approach requires less time for quadratic programming solving and provides better generalization performance. In addition, the proposed approach with much smaller number of non- bound support values is significantly faster than SVM with active set strategy for large training data set.

A GENERALLY APPLICABLE METHOD OF STATISTIC ANALYSIS FOR STUDYING AND CLASSIFYING NERVE TYPES OF CHILDREN,JUVENILES AND YOUTHS

In this paper, a method of statistic analysis is suggested for studying and classifying nerve types of children, juveniles and youths. First, a set of effective calculating formulae is established so as to describe nerve types quantitatively. Thus, our analysis of nerve types is based on the experimental data. Since these data can not be considered as normally distributed, even the sampling is sized greatly. This has caused certain difficulties in the data analysis. The Box-Cox Transformation is proposed for the sampling data in this paper. As a result, direr tronsformation all the sets of experimental data can successfully pass Kolmogorov‘s no rmallsation test. And then, the suitable representative points in normal distribution are sleeted as classifying standards. Once the dividing points for classification are set up, the problem of classifying nerve types is solved successfully.     

Identification of antiviral-relevant genes in the cultured fish cells induced by UV-inactivated virus

UV-inactivated grass carp hemorrhage virus (GCHV) can induce high titer of interferon in cultured CAB (Crucian carp (Carassius auratus L.) blastulae )cells,and thus defend host cells against the virus invasion ,The mechanism is proposed that an antiviral state should be established in the host cells by activating expression of a set of antiviral-relevant genes,In this study ,suppressive subtractive hybridization is applied to constructing a subtracted ,cDNA library with mRNAs isolated from UV-inactivated GCHV infected and mock-infected CAB cells,272 differential cDNA fragments are identified by both PCR and dot blot from the subtractive cDNA library .Sequencing analysis reveals 69 genes,including 46 known gene homlologues,and 23 unknown putative genes,The known genes include the gemes involved in interferon signaling pathways,such as Stat1 and Jak1,the antiviral gences,such as Mx and Vipering,and a set of interferon-stimulated genes observed in mammalian cells. Most of the unknow putative genes contain AU-rich element in their sequences,Differential expressions of these genes are further confirmed by virtual Northern blot and RT-PCR,The data imply that UV-inactivated GCHV is not only able to induce production of interferon in the infected CAB cells,but also leads to the expression of a series of antiviral-relevant genes or immune-releveant genes,and therefore reveals that the signaling pathway of interferon system and antiviral mechanism in fish are similar to those in mammals.     

Semiotic Proposition for Understanding Semantics Within Construction Documents

This research develops a methodology that helps actors in understanding information generated from multiple construction participants. It employs semiotic theory which approaches the interpreter’s understanding of the role of the representations used in construction documents to communicate meanings to other participants. This strategy is designed to aid the interpreters’ comprehension of the use of symbols. The symbols within the construction documents are forms of representations that take the form of a visual representation of a set of markers that describe a formal language, and of markers that are used to represent natural language as well as other possible representations, such as a collection of codes for indexing documents. Symbols are replaced by signs under the semiotics theory. The use of symbols as signs is this study’s recognition of the relationship between the interpreter and the material quality of symbols. The semiotic analysis is an examination of the compromise between the meanings of a representation per se and the concept associated with the understanding of such representation.

How to Stimulate College Students' English Learning Motivation

Motivation to language learning is a complex set of variables including effort, desire to achieve goals, as well as attitudes toward the learning of the language. Individuals' motivation to second-language learning also includes their motivation orientations, interest in the second language, attitudes toward the second-language group, attitudes toward the second-language learning situations and second-language anxiety. Based on the basic theories and approaches, teaching activities are part of motivation in English classes. The teacher of language should have a good influence on students and develop students' keen interest in study in order to strengthen their intrinsic motivation, and set up some new goals for students to pursue and give the feedback to reinforce their inner drive and confidence. Thus, students will become major conductors, make full use of their potentials and enhance their study results.     

A Voronoi-based spatial algebra for spatial relations

Spatial relation between spatial objects is a very important topic for spatial reasoning, query and analysis in geographical information systems (GIS). The most popular models in current use have fundamental deficiencies in theory. In this paper, a generic algebra for spatial relations is presented, in which (i) appropriate operators from set operators (i.e. union, intersection, difference, difference by, symmetric difference, etc.) are utilized to distinguish the spatial relations between neighboring spatial objects; (ii) three types of values are used for the computational results of set operations-content, dimension and number of connected components; and (iii) a spatial object is treated as a whole but the Voronoi region of an object is employed to enhance its interaction with its neighbours. This algebra overcomes the shortcomings of the existing models and it can effectively describe the relations of spatial objects.     

Effect of Process Factors on Microstructure of Semisolid Continuous Casting Billets

Semisolid continuous casting (SSCC) is a new technology to produce billets for semisolid metal forming (SSMF). The effect of process factors, such as pouring temperature, stirring rate, preheating temperature and thermal conductivity of stirring chamber, on the microstructure of SSCC billets was studied by means of the factorial experimental method. The results show that the microstructure of SSCC billets can be controlled by the above-mentioned four process factors. In order to obtain fine and rounded granular grains in an SSCC billet, the pouring temperature, preheating temperature and stirring rate should be kept in a moderate range, and the thermal conductivity of stirring chamber should be high. The regression equations with the process factors connecting the microstructure was also set up based on experimental data.     

Computer Simulation of Turbulent Flow through a Hydraulic Turbine Draft Tube

Based on the Naviev-Stokes equations and the standard κ-ε turbulence model, this paper presents the derivation of the governing equations for the turbulent flow field in a draft tube. The mathematical model for the turbulent flow through a draft tube is set up when the boundary conditions, including the inlet boundary conditions, the outlet boundary conditions and the wall boundary conditions, have been implemented. The governing equations are formulated in a discrete form on a staggered grid system by the finite volume method. The second-order central difference approximation and hybrid scheme are used for discretization. The computation and analysis on internal flow through a draft tube have been carried out by using the simplee algorithm and cfx-tasc flow software so as to obtain the simulated flow fields. The calculation results at the design operating condition for the draft tube are presented in this paper. Thereby, an effective method for simulating the internal flow field in a draft tube has been explored.
