According to the standards and regulations, four kinds of vehicle interior noises under operating conditions, including idle, constant speed, accelerating and braking, are acquired. The objective psychoacoustic parameters and subjective annoyance results are respectively used as the input and output of the BPNN-SQP model. With correlation analysis and significance test, some psychoacoustic parameters, such as loudness, A-weighted sound pressure level, roughness, articulation index and sharpness, are selected for modeling. The annoyance values of unknown noise samples estimated by the BPNN-SQP model are highly correlated with the subjective annoyances. Conclusion can be drawn that the proposed BPNN-SQP model has good generalization ability and can be applied in sound quality prediction of vehicle interior noise under multiple working conditions.展开更多

In this paper we proposed a diagnostic method for identifying the working condition of the submersible pumping system. Based on analyzing the working principle of the pumping unit and the pump structure, different characteristics in loading and unloading processes of the submersible linear motor were obtained at different working conditions. The characteristic quantities were extracted from operation data of the submersible linear motor. A diagnostic model based on the support vector machine (SVM) method was proposed for identifying the working condition of the submersible pumping unit, where the inputs of the SVM classifier were the characteristic quantities. The performance and the misjudgment rate of this method were analyzed and validated by the data acquired from an experimental simulation platform. The model proposed had an excellent performance in failure diagnosis of the submersible pumping system. The SVM classifier had higher diagnostic accuracy than the learning vector quantization (LVQ) classifier.展开更多

The multiple layered cylindrical shell configuration is formed by three layers of isotropic material where the inner and outer layers are stainless steel and the middle layer is aluminum. The multiple layered shell equations with lateral pressure are established based on Love's shell theory. The governing equations of motion with lateral pressure are employed by using energy functional and applying the Ritz method. The boundary conditions represented by end conditions of the multiple layered cylindrical shell are simply supported-clamped(SS-C), free-clamped(F-C) and simply supported-free(SS-F). The influence of different lateral pressures, different thickness to radius ratios, different length to radius ratios and effect of the asymmetric boundary conditions on natural frequency characteristics are studied. It is shown that the lateral pressure has effect on the natural frequency of multiple layered cylindrical shell and causes the natural frequency to increase. The natural frequency of the developed multilayered cylindrical shell is validated by comparing with those in the literature. The proposed research provides an effective approach for vibration analysis shell structures subjected to lateral pressure with an energy method.展开更多

The server serves customers at a lower rate rather than completely stopping service during the service period. Using a quasi upper triangular transition probability matrix of two-dimensional Markov chain and matrix analytic method, the probability generating function (PGF) of the stationary system length distribution is obtained, from which we obtain the stochastic decomposition structure of system length which indicates the relationship with that of the MX/M/1 queue without vacation. Some performance indices are derived by using the PGF of the stationary system length distribution. It is important that we obtain the Laplace Stieltjes transform (LST) of the stationary waiting time distribution. Further, we obtain the mean system length and the mean waiting time. Finally, numerical results for some special cases are presented to show the effects of system parameters.展开更多

As onshore oil extraction gradually enters its mid-to late-stage, the cost required to train a deep learning working condition recognition model for pumping wells by obtaining enough new working condition samples is expensive. For the few-shot problem and large calculation issues of new working conditions of oil wells, a working condition recognition method for pumping unit wells based on a 4-dimensional time-frequency signature (4D-TFS) and meta-learning convolutional shrinkage neural network (ML-CSNN) is proposed. First, the measured pumping unit well workup data are converted into 4D-TFS data, and the initial feature extraction task is performed while compressing the data. Subsequently, a convolutional shrinkage neural network (CSNN) with a specific structure that can ablate low-frequency features is designed to extract working conditions features. Finally, a meta-learning fine-tuning framework for learning the network parameters that are susceptible to task changes is merged into the CSNN to solve the few-shot issue. The results of the experiments demonstrate that the trained ML-CSNN has good recognition accuracy and generalization ability for few-shot working condition recognition. More specifically, in the case of lower computational complexity, only few-shot samples are needed to fine-tune the network parameters, and the model can be quickly adapted to new classes of well conditions.展开更多

Academic Search Complete, CINAHL, MEDLINE, Cochrane, and JBI were searched using combinations of “telehealth or telemedicine or telemonitoring or telepractice or telenursing or telecare AND chronic illness or chronic disease”. Of the identified 449 articles, 47 articles met the inclusion criteria. Most study designs were quasi-experimental one group pre-test post-test (N = 16) with few Randomized Controlled Trials (N = 12). Twenty-three published articles studied the effect of telehealth for one chronic condition (49.9%) while 24 (51.1%) examined the effectiveness of telehealth for multiple chronic conditions. Measurement of telehealth outcomes varied and included efficacy, healthcare utilization, quality, adherence, cost, and safety. No standard measure of dose could be extrapolated. Length of intervention was measured and reported differently in each study. The dose of telehealth services that improve care effectiveness, quality, safety, and cost is still unknown for community dwelling adults experiencing chronic illness. The findings from this systematic review do indicate that longer duration of telehealth services (51 weeks), regardless of modality, produced positive outcomes as opposed to those with shorter durations (37 - 38 weeks) that produced neutral or mixed results. Collecting and reporting data related to clinical workflow such as dose of intervention specific to disease and type of modality is recommended. Rigorous study design including standard measurement at the RCT and Comparative Effectiveness level is still needed.展开更多

文摘The submersible pumping unit is a new type of pumping system for lifting formation fluids from onshore oil wells, and the identification of its working condition has an important influence on oil production. In this paper we proposed a diagnostic method for identifying the working condition of the submersible pumping system. Based on analyzing the working principle of the pumping unit and the pump structure, different characteristics in loading and unloading processes of the submersible linear motor were obtained at different working conditions. The characteristic quantities were extracted from operation data of the submersible linear motor. A diagnostic model based on the support vector machine (SVM) method was proposed for identifying the working condition of the submersible pumping unit, where the inputs of the SVM classifier were the characteristic quantities. The performance and the misjudgment rate of this method were analyzed and validated by the data acquired from an experimental simulation platform. The model proposed had an excellent performance in failure diagnosis of the submersible pumping system. The SVM classifier had higher diagnostic accuracy than the learning vector quantization (LVQ) classifier.
文摘Natural frequency characteristics of a thin-walled multiple layered cylindrical shell under lateral pressure are studied. The multiple layered cylindrical shell configuration is formed by three layers of isotropic material where the inner and outer layers are stainless steel and the middle layer is aluminum. The multiple layered shell equations with lateral pressure are established based on Love's shell theory. The governing equations of motion with lateral pressure are employed by using energy functional and applying the Ritz method. The boundary conditions represented by end conditions of the multiple layered cylindrical shell are simply supported-clamped(SS-C), free-clamped(F-C) and simply supported-free(SS-F). The influence of different lateral pressures, different thickness to radius ratios, different length to radius ratios and effect of the asymmetric boundary conditions on natural frequency characteristics are studied. It is shown that the lateral pressure has effect on the natural frequency of multiple layered cylindrical shell and causes the natural frequency to increase. The natural frequency of the developed multilayered cylindrical shell is validated by comparing with those in the literature. The proposed research provides an effective approach for vibration analysis shell structures subjected to lateral pressure with an energy method.

The results show the 'Greenhouse diseases' are affected by many factors. Among general uncomforts, the morbidity of the bone and joint damage is the highest and closely related to labor time and age. Planting summer squash and wax gourd more easilv cause skin pruritus.
文摘The European Working Conditions(the EWCS)Series Eurofound,the European Foundation for the improvement of working and living conditions is a European tripartite agency which contributes to the improvement of working and living conditions.A key instrument to do so is the EWCS.The EWCS aims to comparably measure working conditions across European countries and beyond.This allows for the analysis of relationships between different aspects of working conditions,the identification of groups at risk and issues of concern,as well as areas of progress and the monitoring of trends over time.These analyses contribute to European policy development,in particular on issues with regard to the quality of work and employment.Following earlier editions of the EWCS in1991,1995,2000,2005 and 2010,a sixth wave of the survey will be fielded in 2015.Eurofound develops the questionnaire and outlines the design of the survey as well as a strict quality assurance framework.The actual preparation and implementation of fieldwork is contracted out.The development of the questionnaire is user led.Tripartite users of the survey are key in setting priorities for change.The questionnaire of the 6th EWCS maintain many trend questions which allow mapping changes over time.Yet a number of new questions will be included in the 6th editions which cover recent changes in work,sustainability of work,boundaryless work,work life balance,organisational justice,engagement,sleeping problems,chronic diseases,blurring frontiers in employment status.Changes over time On average there are little changes:this is because work situations and working conditions are becoming more diverse and inequalities in working conditions are increasing.On average,workers work less and less workers work long hours.They also work less"atypical"working hours.Work is taking place in more collective environment(clients,devolution of coordination tasks down to employee level etc.).Yet employment relations are more individualised.Technology use is on the increase but level of reported cognitive demands has remained the same.Exposure to physical risks remains high.Exposure to psychosocial risks is probably on the increase as illustrated by work intensification.Employment status in evolution:frontiers between categories less strict:the employment contract plays a key role in framing working conditions.Over time,there has been slow progress in gender segregation.Women still bear much of the burden of care activities.Sustainable work on the increase:good working conditions are key for sustainability as well as the provision of meaningful work.Less people report a good/very good work life balance.Important differences are lost at the aggregate level.Unfavourable working conditions tend to cluster disproportionally in some groups.Policy conclusions The improvement of working conditions is not automatic and need to be supported.Lifecourse perspective is important to understand trade-offs between job quality features.Social and economic policies are linked together:good work and good working conditions are key in facilitating good performance and wellbeing.Actions to support the improvement of working conditions are not necessarily costly.Many actors contribute to the improvement of working conditions and their efforts need to be supported.
文摘The paper is concerned with the multiplicity of solutions for some nonlinear elliptic equations involving critical Sobolev exponents and mixed boundary conditions.
文摘This study provides insights into the distillation sequence optimization of refinery system in a methanol to propylene plant with extractive distillation under multiple conditions. The simulated annealing algorithm(SA) with relative cost function was used to solve a meaningful optimization problem. It was observed that different conditions had differed on the flowsheet. Case study shows the effectiveness of the proposed method.

文摘The accurate and intelligent identification of the working conditions of a sucker-rod pumping system is necessary. As onshore oil extraction gradually enters its mid-to late-stage, the cost required to train a deep learning working condition recognition model for pumping wells by obtaining enough new working condition samples is expensive. For the few-shot problem and large calculation issues of new working conditions of oil wells, a working condition recognition method for pumping unit wells based on a 4-dimensional time-frequency signature (4D-TFS) and meta-learning convolutional shrinkage neural network (ML-CSNN) is proposed. First, the measured pumping unit well workup data are converted into 4D-TFS data, and the initial feature extraction task is performed while compressing the data. Subsequently, a convolutional shrinkage neural network (CSNN) with a specific structure that can ablate low-frequency features is designed to extract working conditions features. Finally, a meta-learning fine-tuning framework for learning the network parameters that are susceptible to task changes is merged into the CSNN to solve the few-shot issue. The results of the experiments demonstrate that the trained ML-CSNN has good recognition accuracy and generalization ability for few-shot working condition recognition. More specifically, in the case of lower computational complexity, only few-shot samples are needed to fine-tune the network parameters, and the model can be quickly adapted to new classes of well conditions.

文摘The purpose of this systematic review is to identify evidence of the appropriate dose of telehealth intervention services provided to community dwelling adults experiencing chronic illness or disability related to effectiveness, quality, safety, and cost. Academic Search Complete, CINAHL, MEDLINE, Cochrane, and JBI were searched using combinations of “telehealth or telemedicine or telemonitoring or telepractice or telenursing or telecare AND chronic illness or chronic disease”. Of the identified 449 articles, 47 articles met the inclusion criteria. Most study designs were quasi-experimental one group pre-test post-test (N = 16) with few Randomized Controlled Trials (N = 12). Twenty-three published articles studied the effect of telehealth for one chronic condition (49.9%) while 24 (51.1%) examined the effectiveness of telehealth for multiple chronic conditions. Measurement of telehealth outcomes varied and included efficacy, healthcare utilization, quality, adherence, cost, and safety. No standard measure of dose could be extrapolated. Length of intervention was measured and reported differently in each study. The dose of telehealth services that improve care effectiveness, quality, safety, and cost is still unknown for community dwelling adults experiencing chronic illness. The findings from this systematic review do indicate that longer duration of telehealth services (51 weeks), regardless of modality, produced positive outcomes as opposed to those with shorter durations (37 - 38 weeks) that produced neutral or mixed results. Collecting and reporting data related to clinical workflow such as dose of intervention specific to disease and type of modality is recommended. Rigorous study design including standard measurement at the RCT and Comparative Effectiveness level is still needed.
