It compares them, pointing out its advantages and disadvantages. In order to improve the design of the compressor and its performance, this paper proposes a new modeling theory. In this model, when you make the curve fitting between multiple variables, variables can be divided into many groups. Firstly, looking for the relationship between the variables in groups, and then you can find the relationship between aggregated group.展开更多

Then, a novel coastal compound distributed model of the clutter amplitude is proposed and its statistic character- istics are studied. Subsequently, the nonlinear relation of autocorrelation function is deduced between the coastal compound clutter random sequences and the correlated Gaussian random sequences, which is the important prerequisite for the clutter simulation based on the ZMNL (Zero Memory NonLin- earity). Lastly, the advantage of the algorithm is demonstrated by a feasible simulation of the gen- eration of the random coastal compound clutter sequences.展开更多

Most studies focused on single-objective optimization problem for the hydrogen network, but few account for the multi-objective optimization problem. This paper presents a novel approach for modeling and multi-objective optimization for hydrogen network in refineries. An improved multi-objective optimization model is proposed based on the concept of superstructure. The optimization includes minimization of operating cost and minimization of investment cost of equipment. The proposed methodology for the multi-objective optimization of hydrogen network takes into account flow rate constraints, pressure constraints, purity constraints, impurity constraints, payback period, etc. The method considers all the feasible connections and subjects this to mixed-integer nonlinear programming (MINLP). A deterministic optimization method is applied to solve this multi-objective optimization problem. Finally, a real case study is intro-duced to illustrate the applicability of the approach.展开更多

The feature vectors of pixels are selected and extracted. Pixels are clustered into smooth,edge or detail texture region according to variance-sum criteria function of the feature vectors. Then pa-rameters of GMM are calculated by using the statistical information of these feature vectors. GMM predicts the regularization parameter for each pixel adaptively. Hopfield Neural Network (Hopfield-NN) is used to optimize the objective function of image restoration,and network weight value matrix is updated by the output of GMM. Since GMM is used,the regularization parameters share properties of different kind of regions. In addition,the regularization parameters are different from pixel to pixel. GMM-based regularization method is consistent with human visual system,and it has strong gener-alization capability. Comparing with non-adaptive and some adaptive image restoration algorithms,experimental results show that the proposed algorithm obtains more preferable restored images.展开更多

Rock physical modelling is a bridge that transforms the seismic information of geophysical observations into physical information, but traditional rock physics models lack descriptions of reservoir micro-structures and pore-filling materials. Considering the mineral compositions and pore microstructures of gas hydrates, we built rock physical models for load-bearing and pore-filling gas hydrate-bearing sediments,describe the mineral compositions, pore connectivity and pore shape using effective media theory, calculated the shear properties of pore-filling gas hydrates using Patchy saturation theory and Generalized Gassmann theory, and then revealed the quantitative relation between the elastic parameters and physical parameters for gas hydrate-bearing sediments. The numerical modelling results have shown that the ratios of P-wave and S-wave velocities decrease with hydrate saturation, the P-wave and S-wave velocities of load-bearing gas hydrate-bearing sediments are more sensitive to hydrate saturation, sensitivity is higher with narrower pores, and the ratios of the P-wave and S-wave velocities of pore-filling gas hydrate-bearing sediments are more sensitive to shear properties of hydrates at higher hydrate saturations. Theoretical analysis and practical application results showed that the rock physical models in this paper can be used to calculate the quantitative relation between macro elastic properties and micro physical properties of gas hydrate-bearing sediments, offer shear velocity information lacking in well logging, determine elastic parameters that have more effective indicating abilities, obtain physical parameters such as hydrate saturation and pore aspect ratios, and provide a theoretical basis and practical guidance for gas hydrate quantitative predictions.展开更多
