Parametic Model for Optimization of Battery Capacity and Power Transmitters of On-line Electric Vehicles in Closed/Open Environments

An on-line electric vehicle(OLEV)uses a wireless charging phenomenon,in which power transmitters are installed beneath the road and the OLEV’s battery is charged remotely.This paper deals with the optimization of two key economic and design parameters,i.e.,the size of the battery and the power transmitters allocation.A complete model configuration of the OLEV system,including the vehicle design and power transmitter,is implemented using MATLAB/Simulink.The battery’s state of charge(SOC)rises and drops according to the vehicle’s velocity and power collection and consumption.The mixed integer programming(MIP)model is used for cost calculation.Therefore,with the help of the SOC graph and MIP model,the battery size and the number of power transmitters,along with their placements,are optimized.The proposed model is applicable to both closed and open environments as it accepts both regulated and deregulated velocities.Two test cases are performed for this purpose.The first test case deals with regulated velocity for which we have applied the KAIST campus OLEV’s velocity along with its 13 kWh battery size and 4 power transmitters,and then applied the suggested solution with the same velocity and route i.e.,8 power transmitters with shorter lengths and reduced battery size(3.25 kWh;one-fourth of the first case).SOC is found within limits at the end of the route,saving$1600 and validating the proposed model in this paper.For the second test case,we use deregulated velocity and optimize both parameters,using the same approach.

The Importance of Stakeholder Engagement in Progressive Rehabilitation of Large-Scale Open Pit Mines—A Case Study of Lumwana Mine

Mining globally contributes to the growth of many economies of the world. Since its inception, the Zambian mining industry has contributed largely to the country’s economy. The various developments both in technology and knowledge have contributed to the scale at which mining is being done. Challenges in such a setting arise due to the socio-economic and environmental impacts of mining, which create multidimensional problems. The study investigated the importance of engaging stakeholders in progressive rehabilitation programs for large-scale open pit mines, using a case study of the Lumwana Mine and its host community, Manyama. A qualitative approach was used, and data was collected through one-on-one interviews. A combination of convenient and quota sampling was used to engage with host community leaders, professionals and academicians from various fields and institutions. Results showed that most participants had agreed that stakeholder engagement is important for progressive rehabilitation, but the challenge was that the host community and municipal council representatives were not aware of any progressive rehabilitation efforts at Lumwana Mine. This was attributed to a lack of stakeholder engagement and communication of mitigation progress activities by the Lumwana Mine. Results also revealed that the lack of environmental impact assessment regulations to compel companies to involve stakeholders throughout the entire life of the mine other than just at the pre-mining stage led to a lack of compliance and accountability in rehabilitation.

Prototyping an open environment for sharing geographical analysis models on cloud computing platform

The sharing of geographical analysis models is of crucial importance for simulating geographic processes and phenomena in the current geographical information systems(e.g.Digital Earth),but there remain some issues that have not been completely resolved.The challenges include,eliminating model heterogeneity and searching for suitable infrastructures to support the open sharing and effective execution of models.Taking advantage of cloud computing,this article aims to address the above issues and develop an open environment for geographical analysis model sharing.On the basis of the analysis of the applicability of cloud computing,the architecture of the open environment is proposed.More importantly,key strategies designed for heterogeneous model description,model encapsulating as well as model deploying and transparent accessing in the cloud are discussed in detail to establish such an environment.Finally,the prototype environment is implemented,and experiments were conducted to verify the environment’s feasibility to support the sharing of geographical analysis models.

Diffusion dynamics in external noise-activated non-equilibrium open system-reservoir coupling environment

The diffusion process in an external noise-activated non-equilibrium open system–reservoir coupling environment is studied by analytically solving the generalized Langevin equation. The dynamical property of the system near the barrier top is investigated in detail by numerically calculating the quantities such as mean diffusion path, invariance, barrier passing probability, and so on. It is found that, comparing with the unfavorable effect of internal fluctuations, the external noise activation is sometimes beneficial to the diffusion process. An optimal strength of external activation or correlation time of the internal fluctuation is expected for the diffusing particle to have a maximal probability to escape from the potential well.

Commodification of Traditional Open Spaces as a Commodity and the Consequent Damage of Environmental Ethics (Case Study in Ubud Village Bali Indonesia)

This paper aims to examine the phenomenon of commodification of traditional open space into commodities which results in the destruction of environmental ethics. Environmental ethics places restrictions on freedom in exercising ownership rights and pays more attention to ethical obligations to the environment. The anthropocentric approach should be avoided because it only sees the environment from its commercial angles to satisfy human interests. This research critically describes the reality of the utilization of traditional open spaces in Ubud to become an economic space. The rapid influence of global culture has implications for the practices of capitalist culture within the frame of the tourism industry, resulting in cultural industries, popular culture, hedonic lifestyles and consumerism. This study used a qualitative method. The data was obtained through observation, interviews, literature studies, and documents. The results of the study revealed how traditional open spaces were produced, distributed and consumed by the market. Traditional open spaces were commercialized, traded like goods and services. Traditional open spaces, such as paddy fields, cliffs, telajakan (front part of the house complex), city parks, domestic properties, backyards, cemeteries have been turned into economic spaces to satisfy the taste of tourists. Space is controlled and commodified by capital owners to feed their economic libido while disobeying environmental ethics.

贸易开放对碳排放的影响效应研究——基于2010—2020年中国省际面板数据的经验估计

在贸易开放和“双碳”目标背景下,将2010—2020年中国省际面板总体样本数据划分为贸易开放高水平地区和贸易开放低水平地区两组样本数据,通过固定效应模型和系统GMM估计方法,分别检验了两组样本中贸易开放对人均二氧化碳排放量和碳排放强度的影响。研究发现,贸易开放对中国碳排放具有显著的正向效应,贸易开放会增加碳排放,但贸易开放水平的高低对碳排放的影响存在显著差异,贸易开放低水平地区引致的碳排放要远高于贸易开放高水平地区。同时,无论是贸易开放高水平地区,还是贸易开放低水平地区,环境库兹涅茨曲线假说均存在;外商直接投资的流入有助于降低中国碳排放。研究结果对当前不同贸易开放水平地区之间如何在深化贸易开放的同时降低碳排放具有一定的政策启示。

商业关联和政治关联对科技型中小企业成长的影响

企业社会关联可能是影响科技型中小企业成长的一个关键因素。而已有关于商业关联、政治关联与企业成长之间关系的研究在对新创企业以外其他不同类型企业情境下的实证研究相对匮乏,也缺乏对环境动态性这一重要情景变量在企业网络关系与企业成长中的作用研究,此外考虑商业关联和政治关联之间的互动关系及其对企业成长影响的研究也不足。因此,以开放式创新理论与资源依赖观为基础,探讨商业关联和政治关联对科技型中小企业成长的影响机制,以及环境动态性在其中的调节效应。通过对282份来自中国科技型中小企业的有效调查问卷数据进行回归分析,结果显示:商业关联显著正向影响科技型中小企业成长,但不具有倒“U”型关系,认为主要原因是商业关联为科技型中小企业所带来的资源效益仍然高于建立与维系商业关联的投入成本和互惠陷阱;而政治关联对科技型中小企业成长产生倒“U”型影响,适度的政治关联有助于促进科技型中小企业成长,而当政治关联的强度超过一定临界值后,科技型中小企业的资源可能会更多地被投入到发展其他能力等方面,从而对企业成长产生消极作用;商业关联与政治关联的交互作用负向影响科技型中小企业成长;环境动态性负向调节商业关联对科技型中小企业成长的正向影响,即环境动态性越高,商业关联对科技型中小企业成长的促进作用越弱。为此,科技型中小企业必须谨慎使用政治关联,平衡商业关联与政治关联的强度,有效整合两种外部社会关联所带来的资源。

企业前瞻性环保导向驱动开放式绿色创新效能提升路径研究——基于供应商资源编排视角

供应商参与制造企业开放式绿色创新是制造企业实施开放式绿色创新的常见形态。从供应商资源编排视角,探究制造企业前瞻性环保导向驱动开放式绿色创新效能提升路径。基于231个制造商—供应商配对样本数据的实证研究表明:供应商作为资源提供者参与以及供应商作为共同创造者参与,是制造企业在开放式绿色创新中编排供应商参与角色的两种形式,能够在前瞻性环保导向与开放式绿色创新效能之间发挥不完全中介作用;制造商—供应商不对称依赖正向调节供应商作为资源提供者参与的中介作用,但对供应商作为共同创造者参与的中介作用发挥负向调节作用;两种供应商参与角色编排形式的中介效应比重会随着双方不对称依赖程度变化而改变。结论不仅能够丰富开放式绿色创新研究,而且可为中国制造企业贯彻落实创新驱动绿色转型发展方针提供理论参考。

环境规制与制造业就业:开放条件下的理论探讨与经验证据

本研究利用制造业行业数据对开放条件下环境规制与就业的关系进行检验。研究结果表明,开放条件下环境规制对就业存在抑制作用,且在重、中度污染行业中更加显著,但是外资的流入可部分抵消这一政策因素导致的就业损失。另外,机制分析表明环境规制对劳动就业的“需求效应”和“要素替代效应”在外资引入的条件下仍然成立。基于上述分析,本研究认为合理的环境规制并鼓励高质量出口对恢复就业并保证经济长期稳定发展具有重要意义。
