Roughness coefficient and its uncertainty in gravel-bed river

Manning＇s roughness coefficient was estimated for a gravel-bed river reach using field measurements of water level and discharge, and the applicability of various methods used for estimation of the roughness coefficient was evaluated. Results show that the roughness coefficient tends to decrease with increasing discharge and water depth, and over a certain range it appears to remain constant. Comparison of roughness coefficients calculated by field measurement data with those estimated by other methods shows that, although the field-measured values provide approximate roughness coefficients for relatively large discharge, there seems to be rather high uncertainty due to the difference in resultant values. For this reason, uncertainty related to the roughness coefficient was analyzed in terms of change in computed variables. On average, a 20% increase of the roughness coefficient causes a 7% increase in the water depth and an 8% decrease in velocity, but there may be about a 15% increase in the water depth and an equivalent decrease in velocity for certain cross-sections in the study reach. Finally, the validity of estimated roughness coefficient based on field measurements was examined. A 10% error in discharge measurement may lead to more than 10% uncertainty in roughness coefficient estimation, but corresponding uncertainty in computed water depth and velocity is reduced to approximately 5%. Conversely, the necessity for roughness coefficient estimation by field measurement is confirmed.

WAVE CURRENT FORCE COEFFICIENTS ON INCLINED CYLINDER AND A NEW ESTIMATION METHOD

Based on the review of present force coefficients estimation methods, a new method in the frequency domain, revised cross-spectrum estimation method, is presented in this paper. Some experiments on the wave-current force on inclined cylinders are also described and the wave current force coefficients are estimated by the revised cross-spectrum estimation method. From the results, it is found that the wave and current directions have some regular effect on the coefficients. According to the results, some empirical formulas are obtained for converting the wave-current force coefficients on inclined cylinders into a unified coefficient. Comparisons show that the unified coefficients are in good agreement with other results.

Estimation of Mutual Coupling Coefficient of the Array by Simulated Annealing Algorithm

We propose a method for estimating the mutual coupling coefficient among antennas in this paper which is based on the principle of signal subspace and the simulated annealing （SA） algorithm. The computer simulation has been conducted to illustrate the＇ excellent performance of this method and to demonstrate that it is statistically efficient. The benefit of this new method is that calibration signals and unknown signals can be received simultaneously, during the course of calibration.

The results presented in this paper improve or generalize the recent works of other authors.

Noise level estimation method with application to EMD-based signal denoising

This paper proposes a new signal noise level estimation approach by local regions. The estimated noise variance is applied as the threshold for an improved empirical mode decomposition（EMD） based signal denoising method. The proposed estimation method can effectively extract the candidate regions for the noise level estimation by measuring the correlation coefficient between noisy signal and a Gaussian filtered signal. For the improved EMD based method, the situation of decomposed intrinsic mode function（IMFs） which contains noise and signal simultaneously are taken into account. Experimental results from two simulated signals and an X-ray pulsar signal demonstrate that the proposed method can achieve better performance than the conventional EMD and wavelet transform（WT） based denoising methods.

Algorithm of heating temperature for Chongqing's winter greenhouses

Internal temperature is crucial to plant growth in the greenhouse. We investigated the patterns of constructing and managing greenhouses in Chongqing, and developed an algorithm of heating temperature for closed winter plastic greenhouses under the conditions of no man-made illumination, no ventilation and hot wind machine as the heating equipment, which are the most adopted pattern of greenhouses in Chongqing area. The algorithm includes two functions of temperature outside the greenhouse, which calculate the values of the warming estimation coefficient (WEC) and the gap between temperatures inside and outside the greenhouse with the measured data of outside temperature, and then give the value of internal temperature; the heat rating of heating facilities required by a greenhouse can be determined by this algorithm with given values of floor area and internal temperature, measured outside temperature and calculated WEC. Verification of the algorithm demonstrates a desirable accuracy of estimation. Algorithms of computing heating temperature for greenhouses of different constructing and managing patterns and in different geographic conditions can also be derived in a similar way. This research presents a paradigm for developing a feasible method to fit out greenhouses with appropriate heating facilities, aiming at energy efficient and cost efficient production.

Partial sums of generalized harmonic starlike univalent functions generated by a (p,q)−Ruscheweyh-type harmonic differential operator

Let H denote the class of complex-valued harmonic functions f defined in the open unit disc D and normalized by f(0)=fz(0)-1=0.In this paper,we define a new generalized subclass of H associated with the(p,q)-Ruscheweyh-type harmonic differential operator in D.We first obtain a sufficient coefficient condition that guarantees that a function f in H is sense-preserving harmonic univalent in D and belongs to the aforementioned class.Using this coefficient condition,we then examine ratios of partial sums of f in H.In all cases the results are sharp.In addition,the results so obtained generalize the related works of some authors,and many other new results are obtained.

For the general random effects linear model: Y = Xβ+ε,(βε)～N((Aα 0), (V_(11)V_(12)V_(21)V_(22))), ∧= XV_(11)X'+XV_(12)+ V_(21)X+V_(22)≥0, we also get the necessaryand sufficient conditions for LY+a to be admissible for a linear estimable function Sα+Qβin the class of all estimators under the loss function (d-Sα-Qβ)'D(d-Sα-Qβ).whereD≥0 is known.

Empirical Likelihood-based Inferences in Varying Coefficient Models with Missing Data

In this paper, we consider the empirical likelihood-based inferences for varying coefficient models Y = X^τα（U） ＋ ε when X are subject to missing at random. Based on the inverse probability-weighted idea, a class of empirical log-likelihood ratios, as well as two maximum empirical likelihood estimators, are developed for α（u）. The resulting statistics are shown to have standard chi-squared or normal distributions asymptotically.Simulation studies are also constructed to illustrate the finite sample properties of the proposed statistics.

Properties of New Holomorphic Mappings with Respect to Conic Domains

This paper is mainly about holomorphic mappings associated with conic regions which are closely connected with k-ST(α).We introduce new subclasses of starlike(spirallike)functions,namely,S^(p)_(c)(k,α)(S^(p)_(c)(k,α,β)),and discuss their coefficient estimates and the Fekete–Szego–Goluzin’s problem.Then we generalize S^(p)_(c)(k,α,β)on the unit ball B^(n) in C^(n),that is,k-conic spirallike mappings of typeβand orderα.We obtain the growth,covering and distortion theorems of the generalized mappings.Besides that,we construct k-conic spirallike mappings of typeβand orderαon B^(n) through S_(c)(k,α,β)by the generalized Roper-Suffridge extension operators.

On quasi-convex mappings of order α in the unit ball of a complex Banach space

In this paper, a class of biholomorphic mappings named quasi-convex mapping of order a in the unit ball of a complex Banach space is introduced. When the Banach space is confined to Cn, we obtain the relation between this class of mappings and the convex mappings. Furthermore, the growth and covering theorems of this class of mappings are given on the unit ball of a complex Banach space X. Finally, we get the second order terms coefficient estimations of the homogeneous expansion of quasi-convex mapping of order a defined on the polydisc in Cn and on the unit ball in a complex Banach space, respectively.
