The starting point is the observation of an ambivalence that can be observed in the province, namely the non-consideration of seismic action in the study of structures by both professionals and researchers. The main objective of the study is to show the importance of dynamic analysis of structures in South Kivu. It adopts a meta-analytical approach referring to previous researches on South Kivu and proposes an efficient and optimal method. To arrive at the results, we use Eurocode 7 and 8. In addition, we conducted static analysis using the Coulomb method and dynamic analysis using the Mononobe-Okabe method and compared the results. At Nyabibwe, the results showed that we have a deviation of 24.47% for slip stability, 12.038% for overturning stability and 9.677% for stability against punching through a weight wall.展开更多

The experimental resultsconducted with different samples and collectors showed that the action time between lime and pyritemarkedly influences the depressive ability of lime. The depressive ability of lime increased withthe action time increasing. It was also proved that the depressive results obtained at a large limedosage after a shorter action time are similar to those obtained at a small lime dosage after alonger action time. The increase of depressive ability of lime after a longer action time is becausethat there are different mechanisms in different action time. The composition on the surface ofpyrite acted for different time with lime was studied by using ESCA (Electron Spectroscopic ChemicalAnalysis). The results showed that iron hydroxide and calcium sulphate formed on the pyrite surfaceat the presence of lime in the pulp but the amounts of iron hydroxide and calcium sulphate weredifferent at different action time. At the beginning action time the compound formed on the pyritesurface was mainly calcium sulphate and almost no iron hydroxide formed; but with the action timeincreasing, iron hydroxide formed. The longer the action time, the more iron hydroxide and the lesscalcium sulphate formed. It was considered that the stronger depressive ability of lime after alonger action time is because more iron hydroxide forms on the pyrite surface.展开更多

The values of mean square for GCA (general combining ability) and SCA (specific combining ability) were highly significant which suggested the presence of both additive and non-additive genetic variance in the population. But the higher magnitude of GCA compared to SCA indicated predominance of additive genetic variance. In most of the cases, the cross between poor and poor parents showed positive SCA effect for fruit yield, which indicated the higher yield. The estimates of significant positive better parent heterosis ranged from 6.27 to 49.72 percent. Analysis of genetic components of variation suggested that additive components were more important in the inheritance of fruit yield. This character was observed being controlled by two to three pairs of genes or groups of genes. Narrow sense heritability was 23 percent indicating probability of selection in generations. The graphical analysis also indicated wide genetic diversity among the parents.展开更多

The coupled-cavity lasers show a larger lasing e^ciency and generate an output power higher than the single-cavity lasers, results that are consistent with the theoretical results obtained by rate equations. In dynamic regime, the single-cavity lasers produce pulses as short as 113 ps, while the coupled-cavity lasers show a significantly longer lasing duration. These results indicate that the photonic crystal laser is a promising candidate for the light source in high-speed photonic integrated circuit.展开更多

文摘Deep learning-based action classification technology has been applied to various fields,such as social safety,medical services,and sports.Analyzing an action on a practical level requires tracking multiple human bodies in an image in real-time and simultaneously classifying their actions.There are various related studies on the real-time classification of actions in an image.However,existing deep learning-based action classification models have prolonged response speeds,so there is a limit to real-time analysis.In addition,it has low accuracy of action of each object ifmultiple objects appear in the image.Also,it needs to be improved since it has a memory overhead in processing image data.Deep learning-based action classification using one-shot object detection is proposed to overcome the limitations of multiframe-based analysis technology.The proposed method uses a one-shot object detection model and a multi-object tracking algorithm to detect and track multiple objects in the image.Then,a deep learning-based pattern classification model is used to classify the body action of the object in the image by reducing the data for each object to an action vector.Compared to the existing studies,the constructed model shows higher accuracy of 74.95%,and in terms of speed,it offered better performance than the current studies at 0.234 s per frame.The proposed model makes it possible to classify some actions only through action vector learning without additional image learning because of the vector learning feature of the posterior neural network.Therefore,it is expected to contribute significantly to commercializing realistic streaming data analysis technologies,such as CCTV.

文摘The single and coupled photonic crystal nanocavity lasers are fabricated in the InGaAsP material system and their static and dynamic features are compared. The coupled-cavity lasers show a larger lasing e^ciency and generate an output power higher than the single-cavity lasers, results that are consistent with the theoretical results obtained by rate equations. In dynamic regime, the single-cavity lasers produce pulses as short as 113 ps, while the coupled-cavity lasers show a significantly longer lasing duration. These results indicate that the photonic crystal laser is a promising candidate for the light source in high-speed photonic integrated circuit.

文摘This study conducts an empirical study of building a common reference scale of Can-do statements of Syntactical AnalysisAbility for NMEE.Studying on language proficiency scale has been done a lot at abroad,but we haven't had a unified English languageproficiency scale in China until now.Without a common reference standard,this leads to many descriptive problems:such as differentdescriptive indexes,vague definition,unclear level and so on.As an important part of English comprehensive ability,syntactical analy-sis ability processes a large proportion of NMEE.Theoretically Based on Bachman's(Communicative Language Ability,CLA) and Dengjie's Discourse Information Cognitive Processing Ability,this study finds that syntactical analysis ability can be described from 38 per-spectives.

文摘Artificial intelligence is increasingly being applied in the field of video analysis,particularly in the area of public safety where video surveillance equipment such as closed-circuit television(CCTV)is used and automated analysis of video information is required.However,various issues such as data size limitations and low processing speeds make real-time extraction of video data challenging.Video analysis technology applies object classification,detection,and relationship analysis to continuous 2D frame data,and the various meanings within the video are thus analyzed based on the extracted basic data.Motion recognition is key in this analysis.Motion recognition is a challenging field that analyzes human body movements,requiring the interpretation of complex movements of human joints and the relationships between various objects.The deep learning-based human skeleton detection algorithm is a representative motion recognition algorithm.Recently,motion analysis models such as the SlowFast network algorithm,have also been developed with excellent performance.However,these models do not operate properly in most wide-angle video environments outdoors,displaying low response speed,as expected from motion classification extraction in environments associated with high-resolution images.The proposed method achieves high level of extraction and accuracy by improving SlowFast’s input data preprocessing and data structure methods.The input data are preprocessed through object tracking and background removal using YOLO and DeepSORT.A higher performance than that of a single model is achieved by improving the existing SlowFast’s data structure into a frame unit structure.Based on the confusion matrix,accuracies of 70.16%and 70.74%were obtained for the existing SlowFast and proposed model,respectively,indicating a 0.58%increase in accuracy.Comparing detection,based on behavioral classification,the existing SlowFast detected 2,341,164 cases,whereas the proposed model detected 3,119,323 cases,which is an increase of 33.23%.

文摘Dependability analysis is an important step in designing and analyzing safety computer systems and protection systems.Introducing multi-processor and virtual machine increases the system faults' complexity,diversity and dynamic,in particular for software-induced failures,with an impact on the overall dependability.Moreover,it is very different for safety system to operate successfully at any active phase,since there is a huge difference in failure rate between hardware-induced and softwareinduced failures.To handle these difficulties and achieve accurate dependability evaluation,consistently reflecting the construct it measures,a new formalism derived from dynamic fault graphs(DFG) is developed in this paper.DFG exploits the concept of system event as fault state sequences to represent dynamic behaviors,which allows us to execute probabilistic measures at each timestamp when change occurs.The approach automatically combines the reliability analysis with the system dynamics.In this paper,we describe how to use the proposed methodology drives to the overall system dependability analysis through the phases of modeling,structural discovery and probability analysis,which is also discussed using an example of a virtual computing system.
