The matixes of kinetic and geometry relationships and 3 dimension space coordinate systems are built for the cut drums, arms and shearer body. The methods of 3D modeling, dynamic simulation and relative technique problems are discussed.展开更多

Basing on the experience in the ink wash drawing, in this paper, we expound the artistic characters of ink wash painting and particularly analyze the characteristics of the materials used in the ink wash drawing and the relationships between them. A simulation model is presented and some typical visual effects of the ink wash painting are realized.展开更多

APEX, in its native form, requires users to edit text files for modifying input files;therefore a GUI interface can aid users in modification of these files and reduce errors. Microsoft Excel is a popular spreadsheet program that has the largest user base among scientists and researchers, thus providing a relatively common platform in which stages the tool. The APEXeditor requires minimal additional learning to operate the tool for those who already have basic level of knowledge in Excel. The user can load APEX input files into the spreadsheet tool and the GUI offers meta information and provides functions to edit, write, and run the APEX model. Ultimately, the APEXeditor substitutes existing GUI programs such as WinAPEX or ArcAPEX that require installation or additional licensing. A series of scripts were developed as a back-end engine that automates data formatting and editing of linked APEX input ASCII files including database libraries. The simple architecture of the tool helps users maintain the quality of the data and allows error-free editing of APEX model inputs to characterize the system under study. This tool is suitable for all kinds of applications and has been successfully used for the creation of APEX model runs in numerous studies.展开更多

Data for testing and running the model came from the U.S. Forest Service's Forest Inventory and Analysis (FIA) Database and were also collected in field surveys in north-central Indiana. ArcFVS 1.0 is designed using the ArcGIS software from the Environmental Systems Research Institute (ESRI) and the Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) programming environment to manipulate ESRI's ArcObjects. The resulting product offers custom functions as commands in a new menu or as tools on a new toolbar. They are used to: select spatially or by attribute the forest plots to be projected by FVS, create the FVS input files for the selected plots and display in a geospatial environment different types of FVS output (text output files, tables with variables of interest and visualization image files). Advantages of ArcFVS 1.0 include the new GIS capabilities, enhanced format translation functions and the standardized programming environment.展开更多
