Regeneration of vernacular architecture: new rammed earth houses on the upper reaches of the Yangtze River

Jiaping LIU, Rongrong HU, Liu YANG, Runshan WANG,

Frontiers in Energy 2010, Volume 4, Issue 1,   Pages 93-99 doi: 10.1007/s11708-010-0002-4

Abstract: In rural areas of western China, most of the vernacular architectures are made of earth. In the process of urbanization, few residents like to build their houses with earth because the old traditional earth house cannot meet their requirement for higher standard of living. As a result, much more energy will be consumed if industrial building materials are used instead of earth. The regeneration of the traditional earth house, therefore, becomes a challenge in new village construction. This paper briefly describes a project about creating a new prototype of earth house for the migrants along the upper reaches of the Yangtze River to shed light on finding an appropriate approach for regenerating the traditional earth houses with the concept of low-energy housing. It includes an investigation of the traditional earth house and the environment condition of the new settlement, the new house design process, and the quantitative evaluation of the living quality of the new house.

Joint compressed sensing imaging and phase adjustment via an iterative method for multistatic passive None

Jue WANG, Jun WANG

Frontiers of Information Technology & Electronic Engineering 2018, Volume 19, Issue 4,   Pages 557-568 doi: 10.1631/FITEE.1601423

Abstract: The resolution of the multistatic passive radar imaging system (MPRIS) is poor due to the narrow bandwidthThen the compressed sensing technique is extended to the MPRIS to realize high-resolution imaging.Furthermore, a phase correction technique is developed for compen-sating for phase errors in an MPRISThe technique is nonparametric and can be used to estimate phase errors of any form.The effectiveness and convergence of the technique are confirmed by numerical simulations.

Simulation studies on metastable phase equilibria in the aqueous ternary systems (NaCl-MgCl

Tianlong DENG, Baojun ZHANG, Dongchan LI, Yafei GUO

Frontiers of Chemical Science and Engineering 2009, Volume 3, Issue 2,   Pages 172-175 doi: 10.1007/s11705-009-0048-1

Abstract: The solubilities and densities of the aqueous metastable ternary systems (NaCl-MgCl -H O) and (KCl-MgCl -H O) at 308.15 K were determined by the isothermal evaporation method. On the basis of the experimental results, the phase diagrams for those systems were plotted. It was found that the former system belongs to the hydrate-I type with one invariant point of (NaCl+ MgCl ?6H O), two univariant curves, and two crystallization regions corresponding to halite (NaCl) and bischofite (MgCl ·6H O); and the latter system belongs to the type of incongruent-double salts with two invariant points of (KCl+ KCl·MgCl ·6H O) and (MgCl ·6H O+ KCl·MgCl ·6H O), three univariant curves, and three crystallization regions corresponding to potassium chloride (KCl), carnallite (KCl·MgCl ·6H O) and bischofite (MgCl ·6H O). No solid solutions were found in both systems.

Power maximization of variable-speed variable-pitch wind turbines using passive adaptive neural fault

Hamed HABIBI, Hamed RAHIMI NOHOOJI, Ian HOWARD

Frontiers of Mechanical Engineering 2017, Volume 12, Issue 3,   Pages 377-388 doi: 10.1007/s11465-017-0431-4

Abstract:

Power maximization has always been a practical consideration in wind turbines. The question of how to address optimal power capture, especially when the system dynamics are nonlinear and the actuators are subject to unknown faults, is significant. This paper studies the control methodology for variable-speed variable-pitch wind turbines including the effects of uncertain nonlinear dynamics, system fault uncertainties, and unknown external disturbances. The nonlinear model of the wind turbine is presented, and the problem of maximizing extracted energy is formulated by designing the optimal desired states. With the known system, a model-based nonlinear controller is designed; then, to handle uncertainties, the unknown nonlinearities of the wind turbine are estimated by utilizing radial basis function neural networks. The adaptive neural fault tolerant control is designed passively to be robust on model uncertainties, disturbances including wind speed and model noises, and completely unknown actuator faults including generator torque and pitch actuator torque. The Lyapunov direct method is employed to prove that the closed-loop system is uniformly bounded. Simulation studies are performed to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method.
