This study employed a two-stage model from 3-year echocardiographic data to ascertain whether the two-stage model predicts RFCA outcome more favorably than models using the baseline LAD. Methods Data were retrospectively collected from 263 consecutive patients with drug-refractory AF undergoing RFCA. Regular echocardiographic measurements of LAD were performed at baseline, 1, 3, 6, and 12 months and then every 6 months after RFCA. Sex, age, type of AF, number of RFCA, and AF status were recorded. We obtain the actual （predicted） 3-year LAD using a longitudinal linear mixed model （1st stage）. Logistic regression models based on the baseline LAD （Model 1）, actual （predicted） 3-year LAD （Model 2） （2nd stage）, and observed 3-year LAD （Model 3） were constructed to predict RFCA outcome. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve （AUC） were used to assess the performance of models. Results The lowess smoothed curve indicated that the LAD declined over the first three months and remained stable up to 36 months after RFCA. The degree of LAD reduction was significantly influenced by the baseline LAD. Non-paroxysmal AF, large LAD and female gender were significant predictors of AF recurrence. Model 2 had the largest AUC among the three models. Conclusions This longitudinal study-based two-stage model outperforms the original logistic model using the baseline LAD. Non-paroxysmal AF, larger LAD and female gender are significant predictors of RFCA failure.展开更多

The results of an example show that the decision rules become more typical and robust,and they are more accurate to predict the maintenance level of an aero-engine module as the maintenance data increase,which illustrates the feasibility of the represented method.展开更多

Compared with a probe-typed sensor,which is designed successfully before,signals are collected to verify the validity and better feasibility of the circular sensor.According to the signals monitored over 131h,the typical signals of 125—129 phases are analyzed.The results show that the unusual exhaust particles are carbon depositions from fuel spray nozzle.Therefore,with the electrostatic sensor,early warning can be provided for initial fault condition, as well as real-time reference for the condition-based maintenance.展开更多

The basic idea is that the important features force the data points of the same class to maintain their intrinsic neighbor relations, whereas neighboring points of different classes are no longer to stick to one an- other. Applying this assumption, an optimization problem weighting each feature is derived. The algorithm does not involve the dense matrix eigen-decomposition which can be computationally expensive in time. Extensive exper- iments are conducted to validate the significance of selected features using the Yale, Extended YaleB and PIE data- sets. The thorough evaluation shows that, using one-nearest neighbor classifier, the recognition rates using 100-- 500 leading features selected by the algorithm distinctively outperform those with features selected by the baseline feature selection algorithms, while using support vector machine features selected by the algorithm show less prominent improvement. Moreover, the experiments demonstrate that the proposed algorithm is particularly effi- cient for multi-class face recognition problem.展开更多

By introducing V-BLAST transmis- sion to the coded multi-relay cooperation, relays send their streams of symbols simultaneously, which increases the data rate and significantly reduces the transmission delay. The theoretical analysis and numerical results show that the new LDPC coded cooperation scheme outperforms the coded non-cooperation under the same code rate, and it also achieves a good trade-off among the performance, signal delay, and the encoding complexity associated with the number of relays. The performance gain can be credited to the proposed V-BLAST processing architecture and BP-based joint iterative decoding by the introduced multi-layer Tanner graph at a receiver-side.展开更多

The theoretical background of the multi-scale approach solved by the finite element method(FEM)is recalled firstly.Then the geometric characters of three kinds of damage mechanisms,i.e.micro matrix cracks,fiber/matrix interface debonding and fiber fracture,are studied.Three kinds of RVE are proposed to model the microstructure of C/SiC with above damage mechanisms respectively.The matrix cracking is modeled by critical matrix strain energy(CMSE)principle while a maximum shear stress criterion is used for modeling fiber/matrix interface debonding. The behavior of fiber fracture is modeled by the famous Weibull statistic theory.A numerical example of continuous fiber reinforced C/SiC composite under tensile loading is performed.The results show that the stress/strain curve predicted by the developed model agrees with experimental data.展开更多

Experimental results show that the presented method can effectively sort advanced system radar signals with overlapped parameters in complex electromagnetic environment.展开更多

Automatic calculation for the approach is implemented through writing the calculating programs. In the system, the modification of geometric model of rotor hub is controlled by several parameters, and finite element method and S-N curve method are then employed to solve the fatigue life by automatically assigned parameters. A database between assigned parameters and fatigue life is obtained via Latin Hypercube Sampling （LHS） on toler- ance zone of rotor hub. Different data-fitting technologies are used and compared to determine a highest-precision approximation for this database. The parameters are assumed to he independent of each other and follow normal distributions. Fatigue reliability is then computed by the Monte Carlo （MC） method and the mean-value first order second moment （MFOSM） method. Results show that the approach has high efficiency and precision, and is suit- able for engineering application.展开更多

The SEM images show that there is a three-layer structure called the reaction, virgin and boundary layer structure. The depth of fluorinated layer is 5.75 ~m with 1 h fluorination time and 7.86 b^m with 2 h. The depths are 5.46 /~m and 5.07 /~m when fluorine density is 2G and 1~/0, respectively. CA indicates that the HDPE surface property becomes more hydrophobic with the increasing water contact angle from 78.5~ to 104.5~. Oleophobic and hydrophobic features of HDPE are identified by comparison of mass change experiments. It is shown that the in- crement rate of fluorinated HDPE is much lower than that of un-fluorinated HDPE filled in neither distilled water nor jet fuel.展开更多

The method uses a short trajectory to match the curvature between the path of vehicle and ten- tacle, rather than computing a whole steady state. To control vehicle motion via wheel force and steering angle, two parameters should be discretized under certain area and these discrete values can form 18 5〈 20 groups. Then the curvature between the trajectory and tentacle should be matched, and the corresponding group of wheel force and steering angle can be found. The flow chart of the improved execution method is given, and simulation is per- formed on a platform named ＂pro-sivic＂. The simulation results show that the improved method can maintain the advantage of the tentacle algorithm in terms of computation speed, and avoid the errors such as endless loop and data overflow, which proves the method more efficient.展开更多

Under the three types of conditions, the main parameters of an L-type podded propulsor were measured, including the propeller thrust and torque, as well as the thrust, side force, and moment of the whole pod unit.In addition, the flow field on the section between the propeller and the strut was analyzed. Experimental results demonstrate that the dynamic azimuthing rate and direction and the turning direction affect the forces on the propeller and the whole pod unit. Forces are asymmetrically distributed between the left and right azimuthing directions because of the effect of propeller rotation. The findings of this study provide a foundation for further research on L-type podded propulsors.展开更多

文摘A tilt-rotor unsteady flow analytical method has been developed based upon viscous vortex-particle method.In this method,the vorticity field is divided into small assembled vortex particles.Vortex motion and diffusion are obtained by solving the velocity-vorticity-formed incompressible Navier-Stokes equations using agrid-free Lagrangian simulation method.Generation of the newly vortex particles is calculated by using the Weissinger-L lifting surface model.Furthermore,in order to significantly improve computational efficiency,a fast multiple method(FMM)is introduced into the calculation of induced velocity and its gradient.Finally,the joint vertical experimental(JVX)tilt-rotor is taken as numerical examples to analyze.The wake geometry and downwash are investigated for both hover and airplane modes.The proposed method for tilt-rotor flow analysis is verified by comparing its results with those available measured data.Comparison indicates that the current method can accurately capture the complicated tilt-rotor wake variation and be suitable for aerodynamic interaction simulation in complex environments.Additionally,the aerodynamic interactional characteristics of dual-rotor wake are discussed in different rotor distance.Results show that there are significant differences on interactional characteristics between hover mode and airplane mode.
文摘In order to solve some deficiencies in tentacle execution, an improved execution method of tentacle algo- rithm is presented. The method uses a short trajectory to match the curvature between the path of vehicle and ten- tacle, rather than computing a whole steady state. To control vehicle motion via wheel force and steering angle, two parameters should be discretized under certain area and these discrete values can form 18 5〈 20 groups. Then the curvature between the trajectory and tentacle should be matched, and the corresponding group of wheel force and steering angle can be found. The flow chart of the improved execution method is given, and simulation is per- formed on a platform named ＂pro-sivic＂. The simulation results show that the improved method can maintain the advantage of the tentacle algorithm in terms of computation speed, and avoid the errors such as endless loop and data overflow, which proves the method more efficient.

文摘The reliability of global navigation satellite system(GNSS)positioning degrades when satellite signals are interfered.Such degradation is hard to be deteced by a micro-electro mechanical system(MEMS)based inertial system(INS)/GNSS,integrating navigation system with a conventional Kalman filtering,which results in potential integrity problem of the system.Hence,an algorithm combining wireless fidelity(WiFi)signal with a federated Kalman filter(FKF)is proposed to identify the system integrity in dense urban navigation.The criterion of the system integrity detection is created followed by the derivation of the integrity coefficient.The field test shows that integrity changes can be captured by applying WiFi,and the maximum positioning error is reduced by 67% without compensation of inertial sensors in integrity deterioration.

文摘Experimental tests were conducted to evaluate the hydrodynamic performance of an L-type podded propulsor in straight-ahead motion and off-design conditions using an open-water measuring instrument developed by the authors for podded propulsors, a ship model towing tank, and under water particle image velocimetry （PIV） measurement systems. Under the three types of conditions, the main parameters of an L-type podded propulsor were measured, including the propeller thrust and torque, as well as the thrust, side force, and moment of the whole pod unit.In addition, the flow field on the section between the propeller and the strut was analyzed. Experimental results demonstrate that the dynamic azimuthing rate and direction and the turning direction affect the forces on the propeller and the whole pod unit. Forces are asymmetrically distributed between the left and right azimuthing directions because of the effect of propeller rotation. The findings of this study provide a foundation for further research on L-type podded propulsors.
