For this reason， the multivariable-coupling parametric model of the wind tunnel and filtering processing of the data with step response was proposed by the cubic spline interpolation method. The area method was applied to the parameter identification from the step response data of each channel， and the best model of each channel was determined by the root mean square error of different model orders. Wind tunnel experiments show the effectiveness of the proposed method. References | Related Articles | Metrics

Robust Finite-Time Energy-to-Peak Control for Systems with Discrete and Distributed Delays ZHENG Lian-wei 2016, 37 (11):  1536-1540.  DOI: 10.12068/j.issn.1005-3026.2016.11.004 Abstract ( 609 )   HTML   PDF (355KB) ( 1231 )   The robust finite-time control problem under the constraint of energy-to-peak performance index was investigated for linear systems with delays. Norm-bounded uncertainties was included in the coefficient matrices of systems and discrete and distributed delays were included in the states. A Lyapunov functional involving a parameter was introduced. Its exponential growth was checked for bounding the states and outputs. Then， sufficient conditions were derived guaranteeing that the closed-loop systems are finite-time bounded and satisfy prescribed energy-to-peak performance index for all admissible uncertainties. What’s more， the control law was obtained simultaneously. These conditions were formulated in terms of linear matrix inequalities with an eigenvalue constraint. Through transforming the constraint to nonlinear matrix inequalities， a cone complementarity linearization algorithm was designed to solve such matrix inequalities. An example was presented to show the effectiveness of the proposed method. References | Related Articles | Metrics

QGrid: A Parallel Indexing Structure for Spatial Moving Objects LI Chuan-wen， CHE Qing-shou， GU Yu， DENG Qing-xu 2016, 37 (11):  1541-1546.  DOI: 10.12068/j.issn.1005-3026.2016.11.005 Abstract ( 645 )   HTML   PDF (495KB) ( 685 )   In order to improve updating efficiency and querying accuracy for spatial moving object data， a parallel indexing structure for spatial moving objects was proposed. A main index and an auxiliary index were contained in the proposed structure， which were used for supporting range based and identity based spatial object query operations， respectively. A query index was also utilized which hooks updating operations to querying operations that may be influenced. Thus locking relevent spatial objects and indexing structures could be avoided when range query operations are processed. At the same time， it also support timeslice semantics for parallel operations. Experimental results show that， under high working load， the structure can not only guarantee querying accuracy， the throughput is also obviously higher than that of the existing methods. The index improves the degree of system parallelism， makes it possible for object updating and querying operations in same ranges be processed in parallel， and therefore improves the overall efficiency of the system.

Accordingly， an approach that can process spatiotemporal data without being affected should be proposed. XML makes it powerful to model， represent， and manage uncertain spatiotemporal data. Data in traditional relational database is based on relations. When representing temporal attributes， it can generate a large amount of data redundancy. Therefore， it cannot represent uncertain spatiotemporal data in relational database effectively. The uncertain spatiotemporal data model was proposed to improve the ability of data representation， which was consist of classifying different kinds of XML nodes and introducing probability attributes to represent uncertain spatiotemporal XML nodes.

The mechanism of producing such wrinkle defect in TRB square box was analyzed and the effect of the binder force on the wrinkle defect was discussed. The results indicate that the spots inclined to form the wrinkle in the TRB square box are the straight flange on the thinner side and the flange in the thickness transition zone. When the binder force on the thicker side is not great enough， the wrinkle could also form at the straight flange on the thicker side. Under the conditions of no crack and the large movement in the thickness transition zone， the larger binder force can help to improve the wrinkle resistance of TRB and when the binder force is constant the restriction of the wrinkle of TRB is the best.

The pyrolysis index D is corn cob > rice straw > rice husk > peanut shell. The activation energy is rice husk > corn cob > rice straw > peanut shell. The char yield is rice husk > peanut shell > rice straw > corn cob. Generally， thermal stabilities of corn cob and rice straw are poor while thermal stabilities of rice husk and peanut shell are relatively stable. The activation energy and frequency factor are obtained by Coasts-Redfern method. Numerical results show a good consistency with thermogravimetric data. References | Related Articles | Metrics

Based on structural modal， a new method analyzing gob group blasting response was presented. In combination with a typical engineering problem， verification and discussion were made for the method. Results indicate that the method can directly reflect gob group rock mass response law of displacement and velocity， and describe its blasting response characteristics. The results are in accordance with that of numerical simulation. For internal damping， rock mass vibration damping， the amplitude decays to zero gradually. Rock mass where the blasting loads act on has the strongest response strength. With an increase in the distance between rock mass and the blasting position， response strength of rock mass weakens. The method can greatly decrease computation time and increase calculation efficiency and it provides a new direction for dynamic response analysis of rock mass.

The results shows that the major provenance in debris flow forming area wont slide integrally when the debris flow starts up， but rather forming some gullies on the surface of the forming area， and the gullies develop until the debris flow starts up. It′s more dangerous in the case that the soil is saturated by small rainfall beforehand and then scoured by the moderate or heavy rainfalls. Unstable rock and soil mass on both sides of the gullies become the main recharge sources of provenance. The experimental results are well consistent with the natural Panlonggu debris flow. The research results can provide certain reference for building the early warning system and disaster prevention and reduction for Panlonggu debris flow and other similar debris flows.

The observed experimental phenomena were explained by numerical simulation. Results show that with the increase of rock block proportion， zones of both tensile stress and compressive stress develop as staggered distribution so that failure mode is dependent on the splitting failure and the shear failure. Increasing rock block proportion changes a tortuous failure surface contributed by splitting failure to multiple failure surfaces and detachment of rock particles along the periphery of specimens to form the compound failure mode combining splitting failure and shear failure. The size effect does not play any role in failure modes， but do play prominent role in mechanical characteristics. Mechanical properties of bigger samples are worse than those of smaller samples.

Besides， random filter algorithm was applied to reduce low frequency random noise points similar to the change of object. The piecewise low-order interpolation method was applied to fit cavity point cloud based on reduction and simplifying， thus the curve became smoother than before and after treatment. The application results show that the noise points in point cloud data detected by three-dimensional laser in cavity are effectively removed by filtering and smoothing treatment. Furthermore， the self-intersection in model is avoided. Therefore， cavity models generated by processed point cloud data are extremely identical to engineering practice.

Then， a digital imaging processing software is used to statistically analyze the geometric characteristics of the particles. It shows that the particles of lunar soil simulant mainly are of four shapes: sphere， quasi-ellipsoid shape， quasi-trigonal shape and quasi-cube shape. Particles with the three irregular shapes are simulated as clumps in PFC 3D， and the numerical model of tri-axial test is obtained to study their shear strength. The numerical results show that: the particle shape has a noticeable effect on shear strength; the shear strength of particles of quasi-ellipsoid shape is the greatest of all， while the sphere particles has the minimum shear strength. For particles of the same quasi-trigonal shape， the greater ruggedness it is， the stronger shear strength the sample has. References | Related Articles | Metrics

Study of Coarse Aggregate Configuration of Asphalt Mixture in Laboratory GUO Hui， ZHAO Yong-li， ZHOU Jian 2016, 37 (11):  1645-1649.  DOI: 10.12068/j.issn.1005-3026.2016.11.026 Abstract ( 623 )   HTML   PDF (1303KB) ( 590 )   In order to quantitatively evaluate the variation of the coarse aggregate alignment in the pitch mixture molding indoors， the digital image processing technology is used to propose a synthetic centroid moment method. The commonly used AC20 and SMA20 pitch mixtures are selected to define the number of rotations and compactions as test specimens of conditional molding for the two types of mixtures. Parameters are extracted through horizontal segmentation of the collected images. The synthetic centroid moments of the 2-D accumulate residual coarse aggregate and the 2-D non-accumulate residual coarse aggregate are computed， respectively. Results show that the synthetic centroid moments vary differently with the number of compactions for the two types of pitch mixture and coarse aggregate. The configuration of SMA20 is excellent after 60 compactions. References | Related Articles | Metrics

Impact Analysis of Cantilever Beams Supported by MRE with Harmonic Excitation LIU Zi-liang， ZHAO Qian， WANG Chong-yang， WEN Bang-chun 2016, 37 (11):  1650-1654.  DOI: 10.12068/j.issn.1005-3026.2016.11.027 Abstract ( 625 )   HTML   PDF (893KB) ( 661 )   Using the adjustable and controllable characteristics of MRE (magnetorheological elastomers) under the action of applied magnetic fields， the structural support which takes MRE as the main elastic component was designed， and the cantilever beam’s impact fault experimental system with harmonic excitation was established based on the mode of shear force. Then， the experimental tests of vibration response under the action of control currents with different applied magnetic fields were carried out， and the performances of frequency shift and amplitude reduction of the system as well as the vibration response under the condition of impact were analyzed. The results showed that the stiffness of MRE is increased effectively with the control current， the controllability of natural frequency and amplitude of the system is then realized， and the severity of impact fault becomes controllable and the equipment life is thereby improved.

Acoustic Performance of the Straight-Through Perforated Pipe Silencer Considering the Effect of Gas Flow FAN Wei， GUO Li-xin 2016, 37 (11):  1655-1659.  DOI: 10.12068/j.issn.1005-3026.2016.11.028 Abstract ( 612 )   HTML   PDF (1176KB) ( 975 )   In order to investigate the effect of gas flow on transmission loss (TL )， the finite element method (FEM) was used in conjunction with the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to solve the problem of flow-sound coupling. The TL of the straight-through perforated pipe silencer was calculated using the CFD/FEM approach in the presence of gas flow， whose results were compared with the experimental data and predictions from the literature so as to validate the accuracy of the present study. It was concluded that with the increase of flow velocity ， the TL decreases remarkably at the resonance peak and increases at most frequencies， especially at the higher frequencies when the turbulence noise induced by gas flow is neglected， and with the increase of gas temperature， the TL curve shifts to higher frequencies.

Random Response Analysis of Human Body-Seat System Based on the Finite Element Method DONG Rui-chun， GUO Li-xin 2016, 37 (11):  1660-1663.  DOI: 10.12068/j.issn.1005-3026.2016.11.029 Abstract ( 573 )   HTML   PDF (673KB) ( 745 )   The 3D finite element model of human body-seat system with driving postures including human skeleton， muscle， skin， seat， backrest and headrest was created based on the human anatomical anthropometry and the kinematics of human body. The initial boundary condition of driving postures of human body for dynamic analysis was provided by the static analysis of human body-seat system under the action of gravity. A sufficient number of modals for random response analysis were provided with the frequency extraction analysis. The model was validated by calculating the transfer function of lumbar disc to seat surface. Finally， the acceleration and stress response of lumbar disc under the action of white noise excitation of 0~20Hz on the seat bottom in the vertical direction were calculated， whose results showed that the peak response frequency of lumbar disc is less than its natural frequency as a result of seat coupling effect. The method can be used to replace experiments to research the response of human body-seat systems with different schemes. References | Related Articles | Metrics

Customer Delight and Customer Satisfaction: Which Better Drives Customer Loyalty? ZHANG Yue-xian， YANG Yong 2016, 37 (11):  1664-1668.  DOI: 10.12068/j.issn.1005-3026.2016.11.030 Abstract ( 626 )   HTML   PDF (357KB) ( 632 )   Delight and satisfaction are regarded as two important determinants of consumer loyalty. In the context of severe competition， great uncertainty and high risk， the predictive power of satisfaction and delight on customer loyalty was investigated， and the moderating role of online shopping experience was tested. It was found that delight and satisfaction work together to explain behavioral and attitudinal loyalty. Delight has a bigger impact on behavioral loyalty， and satisfaction exerts a bigger impact on attitudinal loyalty. Additionally， online shopping experience moderates the relationship among satisfaction， delight and loyalty. The findings can provide implications to improving customer loyalty by distributing limited resources. References | Related Articles | Metrics

Spatial-Time Evolution of Carbon Emission Patterns in China: Based on Dynamic Evolution and Spatial Agglomeration TONG Xin， LI Xue-sen， TONG Lin， CHEN Kai 2016, 37 (11):  1668-1672.  DOI: 10.12068/j.issn.1005-3026.2016.11.031 Abstract ( 651 )   HTML   PDF (1805KB) ( 879 )   Aiming at the spatial correlation and difference of Chinese carbon emission， the spatial dependence and temporal transition path of Chinese regional carbon emission were analyzed with global spatial autocorrelation testing the spatial agglomeration was explored with local spatial autocorrelation testing， and the evolution of Chinese regional carbon emission scatter plot was studied based on Rey’s measurement of spatial and temporal transition . The results showed that there exists an inter-province correlation in Chinese carbon emission with a clustering pattern， which tends to increase gradually， and the spatial correlation of Chinese carbon emissions and the local regional structure are quite stable and path dependent. Therefore， the issue of Chinese carbon emission should be viewed objectively and rationally， the development of low-carbon economy and the policies of managing carbon emission in China should be considered both globally and dynamically from the spatial perspective.
