It is open, modula-rized, distributed, configurable, integratable and maintainable. By analyzing the MES domain in manufacturing systems, this paper proposes a multi-agent based MES model and analyzes the partitioned functions of MES in the model using unified modeling language (UML) diagrams, and establishes the ongoing implemented MES architecture. This MES can be facilely integrated with the enterprise resource planning (ERP), the floor control system (FCS), and the other manufacturing applications.展开更多

The data of temperature distribution and displacements of typical members were obtained. It is found that the temperature distribution of environment inside the structure, which is found to be in accordance with the multi-zone model with height, has a decisive effect on the tempera^tre evolution of steel members. Besides, it can also be observed that due to the restriction and coordination among the truss members in the localized fire, the maximum relative deflection, which occurs at the mid-span of the top chord, is relatively slight and has not exceeded 1 mm under experimental conditions. On the other hand, the column experiences a notable thermal expansion during the test. Then, a finite element model is presented and validated by the test results.展开更多

Based on the survey data, the whole-day reaching time distribution at transfer points of passengers from the dominant mode to the connecting mode was achieved. A GI/M K/1 bulk service queuing system was constituted by putting the passengers' reaching time distribution as the input and the connecting mode as the service institution. Through queuing theory, the relationship between average queuing length under steady-state and headway of the connecting mode was achieved. By putting the minimum total cost of system as optimization objective, the headway as decision variable, a coordinated scheduling model of multimode in intermodal transit hubs was established. At last, a dynamic scheduling strategy was generated to cope with the unexpected changes of the dominant mode. The instance analysis indicates that this model can significantly reduce passengers' queuing time by approximately 17% with no apparently increase in departure frequency, which provides a useful solution for the coordinated scheduling of different transport modes in hubs.展开更多

By sampling from the posterior distributions of candidate models, Bayesian variable selection via MCMC (Markov chain Monte-Carlo) is effective to overcome the computational burden of all-subset variable selection approaches. However, the convergence of the MCMC is often hard to determine and one is often not sure about if obtained samples are unbiased. This complication has limited the application of Bayesian variable selection in practice. Based on the idea of CFTP (coupling from the past), perfect sampling schemes have been developed to obtain independent samples from the posterior distribution for a variety of problems. Here the authors propose an efficient and effective perfect sampling algorithm for Bayesian variable selection of linear regression models, which independently and identically sample from the posterior distribution of the model space and can efficiently handle thousands of variables. The effectiveness of the authors' algorithm is illustrated by three simulation studies, which have up to thousands of variables, the authors' method is further illustrated in SNPs (single nucleotide polymorphisms) association study among RA (rheumatoid arthritis) patients.展开更多

This paper presents a new geometric structure to study multinomial distributipn models which contain a set of nonlinear parameters. Based on this geometric structure, the authors study several asymptotic properties for sequential estimation. The bias, the variance and the information loss of the sequeatial estimates are given from geometric viewpoint, and a limit theorem connected with the obServed and expected Fisher information is obtained ill terms of curVature measures. The results show that the sequeotial estimation procedure has some better properties which are generally impossible for nonsequeotial estimation procedures.展开更多

Two identical single mode fibers (SMF) are spliced at both ends of a section of the coreless fiber which can he considered as the equivalent weakly guiding multimode fiber (MMF) with a step-index profile when the surrounding refractive index (SKI) is lower than that of the coreless fiber. Thus, it becomes the conventional single-mode multimode single-mode (SMS) fiber structure but with a larger core size. The output spectra will shift along with the changes in the SKI owing to the direct exposure of the coreless fiber. The output spectra under different SKIs were numerically studied, as well as the sensitivities with different lengths and diameters of the coreless fiber. The predication and calculation showed the good agreement with the experimental results. The proposed RI sensor proved to be feasible by verification experiments, and the relative error was merely 0.1% which occupied preferable sensing performance and practicability.展开更多

In this study, we examined the distribution of the Sardinian warbler Sylvia melanocephala along two grassland-to-forest gradients, one in a high-diversity area (Albera-Aspres chain in Catalonia: eight Sylvia warbler species) and one in a low-diversity area (Mount Hymittos in Greece: four species). In Catalonia, distribution models suggested that the apparent exclusion of S. melanocephala from the open and forest ends of the gradient may be explained entirely by the preference of S. melanocephala for mid-successional shrublands. However, a joint analysis of both data sets revealed that: 1) S. melanocephala was more evenly dis- tributed along the vegetation gradient in Greece, suggesting ecological release in the low-diversity area; and 2) a distribution model assuming interspecific competition (based on the distribution of Sylvia species showing a negative co-occurrence pattern with S. melanocephala) had a significantly higher predictive ability than a distribution model based on habitat variables alone. Our study supports the view that species turnover along ecological gradients generally results from a combination of intrinsic preferences and interspecific competition [Current Zoology 57 (3): 307-317, 2011].展开更多

The numerical simulation results are verified by experiments, based on this, the velocity and temperature distribution of three-dimensional displacement ventilation system with single and double heat sources are studied. Velocity and temperature fields under two different cases of heat source are analyzed and compared. The numerical results show that there are three layers in vertical temperature fields of displacement ventilation system with single or double heat sources, and the vertical temperature distribution of single heat source is different from that of double heat sources. When indoor load is large, the comfort requirement of people indoor can't be satisfied with displacement ventilation system only, thus an additional refrigeration system is necessary. Furthermore, under the condition of two heat sources, the displacement ventilation parameters can't be computed simply according to single heat source inlet parameters, therefore the interaction between heat sources should be considered.展开更多
