Some considerations on climate change based on philosophic principle

Li Peicheng

Strategic Study of CAE 2008, Volume 10, Issue 11,   Pages 7-13

Abstract:

Based on basic principle of philosophy, the problem of global climate change is discussed by citing the data of geologic history and hydrometeor. The result shows that global climate change is continuing and the main motive force causing climate change is nature itself but not mankind; the current stage of climate change is a fluctuation part of whole stage of climate change and the change tendency is not eternality; the scope of the current stage of climate change is not exceeding the one of historical climate change. According to the points mentioned above, it may be concluded that the artificial emission of CO2 is not the main factor causing global climate change. So it is reasonable to analyze and treat particular climate change problem with special measure in the condition of different space-time.Finally some suggestions on dealing with the problem of climate change about China are proposed.

The fundamental theory of traditional Chinese medicine and the consideration in its research strategy

Zhenji Li, Chunbo Xu

Frontiers of Medicine 2011, Volume 5, Issue 2,   Pages 208-211 doi: 10.1007/s11684-011-0126-x

Abstract: Stressing the uniqueness and complexity of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) theory system, this paper analyzes the characteristics of TCM as a discipline from four perspectives: scientific nature, fundamental theory, clinical practice, and pharmacological action. It suggests that when the research strategy of TCM theory is designed, the core theory of TCM should be emphasized on the theoretical research on TCM original thinking theory, TCM theory, Chinese materia medica and formulas, acupuncture and moxibustion, meridians and collaterals, and other related fields. Researchers and practitioners should ensure that the basic research on TCM theory is based on clinical practice, research methods (both traditional and contemporary) are exploited, and methodological innovation is underscored. The rule of TCM development should be followed and the characteristics and advantages of TCM carried forward. Meanwhile, the methods and theory of contemporary science and technology should be exploited to fulfill the goal of inheriting, enriching, and developing the fundamental theory of TCM.

Basic consideration of research strategies for head and neck cancer

Jin Gao, Ben Panizza, Newell W. Johnson, Scott Coman, Alan R. Clough

Frontiers of Medicine 2012, Volume 6, Issue 4,   Pages 339-353 doi: 10.1007/s11684-012-0213-7

Abstract:

Head and neck cancer (HNC) consists of a group of malignancies affecting closely related anatomical regions of the upper aerodigestive tract (UADT), including the oral cavity, salivary glands, upper and lower jaw bones and facial skin; the nasal cavity, paranasal sinuses, pharynx, larynx and thyroid gland (although the latter is often excluded and considered as part of endocrine neoplasms). Of these, 90% of HNCs are histologically squamous cell carcinomas originating from the mucosal lining. These malignancies are strongly associated with certain environmental and life-style risk factors, principally tobacco in both smoked and smokeless forms, excessive alcohol consumption, diets poor in antioxidants and essential micronutrients, UV light, chemicals used in certain workplaces, and viruses, principally certain strains of human papillomavirus (HPV) and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). These cancers are frequently aggressive in their biological behaviour with local invasion and metastasis to lymph nodes in the neck. Since most patients are already at late stages of disease at the time of diagnosis, the desirable practice of early diagnosis (first sign of the malignant lesion at an initial stage ) and early treatment, a critical priority to save lives and retain quality of life, is difficult to implement. Thus, primary prevention has been set as a key goal. This article aims to reinforce the basic knowledge of aetiology, key risk factors related to the development of head and neck cancer, basic features of clinical appearance of this group of cancers, and strategies for prevention and early detection. We also suggest basic research strategies on the basis of current knowledge, which should ultimately lead to the improvement of clinical management.

Practical consideration for design and optimization of the step feed process

Shijian GE, Yongzhen PENG, Congcong LU, Shuying WANG

Frontiers of Environmental Science & Engineering 2013, Volume 7, Issue 1,   Pages 135-142 doi: 10.1007/s11783-012-0454-3

Abstract: Based on the anoxic/oxic (A/O) step feed process, a modified University of Cape Town (UCT) step feed process was developed by adding an anaerobic zone and adjusting sludge return pipeline. Performance evaluation of these two types of processes was investigated by optimizing operational parameters, such as the anaerobic/anoxic/oxic volumes, internal recycle ratios, and sludge retention times, for removal of chemical oxygen demanding (COD), nitrogen, and phosphorus. Results showed high removal efficiencies of COD of (85.0±1.7)%, ammonium of (99.7±0.2)%, total nitrogen (TN) of (85.5±1.7)%, phosphorus of (95.1±3.3)%, as well as excellent sludge settleability with average sludge volume index of (83.7±9.5) L·mg in the modified UCT process. Moreover, (61.5±6.0)% of influent COD was efficiently involved in denitrification or phosphorus release process. As much as 35.3% of TN was eliminated through simultaneous nitrification and denitrification process in aerobic zones. In addition, the presence of denitrifying phosphorus accumulating organisms (DNPAOs), accounting for approximately 39.2% of PAOs, was also greatly beneficial to the nitrogen and phosphorus removal. Consequently, the modified UCT step feed process was more attractive for the wastewater treatment plant, because it had extremely competitive advantages such as higher nutrient removal efficiencies, lower energy and dosages consumption, excellent settling sludge and operational assurance.

Modeling of the minimum cutting thickness in micro cutting with consideration of the friction around

Tianfeng ZHOU, Ying WANG, Benshuai RUAN, Zhiqiang LIANG, Xibin WANG

Frontiers of Mechanical Engineering 2020, Volume 15, Issue 1,   Pages 81-88 doi: 10.1007/s11465-019-0561-y

Abstract: Friction modeling between the tool and the workpiece plays an important role in predicting the minimum cutting thickness during TC4 micro machining and finite element method (FEM) cutting simulation. In this study, a new three-region friction modeling is proposed to illustrate the material flow mechanism around the friction zone in micro cutting; estimate the stress distributions on the rake, edge, and clearance faces of the tool; and predict the stagnation point location and the minimum cutting thickness. The friction modeling is established by determining the distribution of normal and shear stress. Then, it is applied to calculate the stagnation point location on the edge face and predict the minimum cutting thickness. The stagnation point and the minimum cutting thickness are also observed and illustrated in the FEM simulation. Micro cutting experiments are conducted to validate the accuracy of the friction and the minimum cutting thickness modeling. Comparison results show that the proposed friction model illustrates the relationship between the normal and sheer stress on the tool surface, thereby validating the modeling method of the minimum cutting thickness in micro cutting.

Philosophic View on Exploration Engineering of Daqing Oil Field at a New Stage

Wang Yupu

Strategic Study of CAE 2008, Volume 10, Issue 3,   Pages 21-24

Abstract:

During the 10th "five year"  plan, the exploration work in Daqing Oil Field was conducted positively from the perspective of philosophy, with new achievements and 4 new inspirations. The first inspiration tells that cognition sources from practice, and confined practice would result in limited cognition, only by judging historical events progressively and evolutionarily could made great innovations. The second inspiration expounds that exploratory risks exist objectively and associate with chances. Solving the conflicts between risks and chances is the key to success. The third inspiration illustrates that oil-finding ability is productive force, while organizing and managing being production relations.Productive force would be accelerated by adequate production relations. The fourth inspiration concludes that freeing exploration ideas is the internal cause and foundation while development of exploration technology being the external cause and condition. External causes would take effect through internal causes, and generate qualitative change. "2 identification technologies"  innovated together with the new development of "3 engineering technologies"  in Daqing Oil Field have beneficially supported the exploration prospects.

Fuzzy stochastic long-term model with consideration of uncertainties for deployment of distributed energy

Iraj AHMADIAN,Oveis ABEDINIA,Noradin GHADIMI

Frontiers in Energy 2014, Volume 8, Issue 4,   Pages 412-425 doi: 10.1007/s11708-014-0315-9

Abstract: This paper presents a novel modified interactive honey bee mating optimization (IHBMO) base fuzzy stochastic long-term approach for determining optimum location and size of distributed energy resources (DERs). The Monte Carlo simulation method is used to model the uncertainties associated with long-term load forecasting. A proper combination of several objectives is considered in the objective function. Reduction of loss and power purchased from the electricity market, loss reduction in peak load level and reduction in voltage deviation are considered simultaneously as the objective functions. First, these objectives are fuzzified and designed to be comparable with each other. Then, they are introduced into an IHBMO algorithm in order to obtain the solution which maximizes the value of integrated objective function. The output power of DERs is scheduled for each load level. An enhanced economic model is also proposed to justify investment on DER. An IEEE 30-bus radial distribution test system is used to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Performance of soft-hard-soft (SHS) cement based composite subjected to blast loading with consideration

Jun WU,Xuemei LIU

Frontiers of Structural and Civil Engineering 2015, Volume 9, Issue 3,   Pages 323-340 doi: 10.1007/s11709-015-0301-2

Abstract: This paper presents a combined experimental and numerical study on the damage and performance of a soft-hard-soft (SHS) multi-layer cement based composite subjected to blast loading which can be used for protective structures and infrastructures to resist extreme loadings, and the composite consists of three layers of construction materials including asphalt concrete (AC) on the top, high strength concrete (HSC) in the middle, and engineered cementitious composites (ECC) at the bottom. To better characterize the material properties under dynamic loading, interface properties of the composite were investigated through direct shear test and also used to validate the interface model. Strain rate effects of the asphalt concrete were also studied and both compressive and tensile dynamic increase factor (DIF) curves were improved based on split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) test. A full-scale field blast test investigated the blast behavior of the composite materials. The numerical model was established by taking into account the strain rate effect of all concrete materials. Furthermore, the interface properties were also considered into the model. The numerical simulation using nonlinear finite element software LS-DYNA agrees closely with the experimental data. Both the numerical and field blast test indicated that the SHS composite exhibited high resistance against blast loading.

Process synthesis with simultaneous consideration of inherent safety-inherent risk footprint

Andreja Nemet, Jiří J. Klemeš, Zdravko Kravanja

Frontiers of Chemical Science and Engineering 2018, Volume 12, Issue 4,   Pages 745-762 doi: 10.1007/s11705-018-1779-7

Abstract:

Process plants should be designed to be economically viable and environmentally friendly, while also being operable and maintainable during process implementation. The safety of processes is among the most important considerations in obtaining results that are more acceptably realistic, as it is linked to the availability and reliability of the process. Inherent safety can effectively be enhanced in the early stages of the design, when the main decisions on process design are made. The aim of this study is to enhance and select the appropriate risk assessment method and to incorporate it into process synthesis, using a mathematical programming approach. A mixed-integer, nonlinear programming (MINLP) model was used for the synthesis of a methanol production process, considering risk assessment during the synthesis. Risk assessment is performed simultaneously with the MINLP process synthesis, where the risk is determined either for the whole process as overall risk, or on a per unit-of-a-product basis. For the latter, a new measurement is proposed: the inherent risk footprint. The results of a case study led to two main conclusions: (i) Significantly safer designs can be obtained at negligible economic expense, and (ii) at higher production capacities, a lower inherent risk footprint can be achieved. The results also indicate that designs obtained using this method can have significantly increased inherent safety, while remaining economically viable.

Virtual reality system of manned maneuvering unit taking into consideration the disturbance from an astronaut

CHENG Jian, FAN Xiu-min, XU An, HONG Xin, HUANG Wei-dong

Frontiers of Mechanical Engineering 2006, Volume 1, Issue 3,   Pages 282-287 doi: 10.1007/s11465-006-0042-y

Abstract: This paper describes a manned maneuvering unit (MMU) virtual reality system. Based on the dynamics/kinematics model of an astronaut equipped with an MMU, a disturbance model of the astronaut s arms under zero gravity conditions is developed. After measuring three initial-position information, the astronaut s arms tracking information is inputted by some tracker setting on an operator using real-time emendation and correction. Finally, the paper presents two different results between loading and unloading the disturbance model within the progress of simulation. From the different results, we find that the motion of an astronaut s arms has greater influence over space walking with the same control mode. The MMU virtual reality provides a new method for the simulation of real space walking, and also a perfect method for developing prototype MMU.

Practice and Consideration on CAPP

Li Peigen,Zhang Guojun

Strategic Study of CAE 2005, Volume 7, Issue 3,   Pages 13-16

Abstract:

Computer aided process planning (CAPP) has been regarded as not only an important research area for the informatization on shop-floor level, which presently remains a relatively weaker sector in information-based manufacturing, but also a bridge across the informatization of shop-floor and enterprise levels. For its wide spectrum of tasks with vast amount of contents involved, as well as for its strong necessity in customization to different manufacturing sectors and various manufacturing processes, CAPP has met with difficulties in generalization and commercialization. On the other hand, due to its position as cross point among various manufacturing activities, it has been proven difficult in integrating with other enterprise application systems. This paper introduces some advancements in the R&D of CAPP, including the application of framework technology in the development of an open architecture CAPP platform, system integration based on BOM transformation, as well as promoting the application of CAPP thorough solving typical problems for some specific industries. In addition, some trends in the R&D of CAPP are also pointed out, i.e., quantified analysis and parameter setting, CAPP based on 3D models and CAPP for shop-floor applications are important directins for further R&D in this area.

Design considerations and experimental studies on semi-active smart pin joint

Yancheng LI, Jianchun LI, Bijan SAMALI, Jiong WANG,

Frontiers of Mechanical Engineering 2009, Volume 4, Issue 4,   Pages 363-370 doi: 10.1007/s11465-009-0074-1

Abstract: Hostile dynamic loadings such as severe wind storms, earthquakes, and sudden impacts can cause severe damage to many civil engineering structures. An intelligent structural system equipped with smart structural members that are controllable in real-time is an effective solution to structural damage and failure during such situations. Civil intelligent structures with controllable properties to adapt to any changes due to dynamic loadings can lead to effective protection of structures and their occupants. In this paper, design and testing of a semi-active magnetorheological (MR) pin joint, in which the moment resistance can be controlled in real-time by altering the magnetic field, is reported with the view of using it as a potential candidate for smart members in the development of intelligent structures. Design of prototype smart pin joints includes theoretical analysis related to the radius of the rotary plate, the property of MR fluids and the gap between the rotary plate and the casing based on the requirements of the dynamics of MR pin joints. FEM analysis was deployed to study the distribution of the magnetic field along the gap. It is found, from the theoretical analysis and experimental verification, that the MR pin joint with a diameter of 180 mm can produce a torque of up to 30 Nm, which meets requirements for semi-active members in a multi-storey prototype building model in the next stage of research and development.

Abstract:

This article explores the importance of agriculture in line with development of society. It uses examples of high productivity achieved in grain and cotton crops in Inner Mongolia and Xinjiang areas to show that the fundamental objective of agricultural science is to maximize crops through the most effective use of soil, fertilizer and water in gaining the greatest benefit from power of the sun. Agricultural science should take up relevant theories and methodologies from other sciences, such as biological science, earth science and economics. The use of information technology will have great benefits for agricultural science. It hopes the scientific communities of China can make a significant contribution to solving the problems facing our rural areas, farmers and agriculture itself.
