    HUANG Yue-yang, JING Yuan-wei, ZHANG Si-ying, SHI Yuan-bo
    2018, 39 (7):  913-917.  DOI: 10.12068/j.issn.1005-3026.2018.07.001
    Abstract ( 583 )   HTML   PDF (526KB) ( 541 )  
    The non-line-of-sight(NLOS)state was determined by the method of hypothesis testing for indoor line-of-sight/non-line-of-sight (LOS/NLOS) hybrid environment. And particle swarm optimization algorithm with shrinkage factor was used to locate. When the sampling value was abnormal, the performance of sample median was better than sample mean. Minimum square error cost functions of the sample mean and sample median were established in LOS and NLOS state. In order to enhance the global and local search ability of the algorithm, the shrinkage factor was introduced on the basis of particle swarm optimization algorithm. Simulation results show that the improved particle swarm optimization algorithm based on sample mean and median (IPSOSMM)has higher localization accuracy than that of the improved particle swarm optimization algorithm based on sample mean (IPSOSM)and the general particle swarm optimization algorithm when the NLOS block is serious.

    ZHAO Yong, ZHANG Shu-yuan, WEN Gao-feng, HAN Zi-xiong
    2018, 39 (7):  918-921.  DOI: 10.12068/j.issn.1005-3026.2018.07.002
    Abstract ( 703 )   HTML   PDF (601KB) ( 732 )  
    In order to precisely monitor and forecast noxious and harmful gases in the air, an optical fiber gas sensor was proposed including a section of tapered and dislocated optical fiber, and the tapered region was coated with graphene. The tapered fiber sensing area which was wrapped with graphene and intermodal interference caused by the dislocation of fiber would substantially increase evanescent field, which transmitted along the surface of fiber, and would have a significant sensitizing effect on the gas sensing of the optical waveguide. At the same time, the gas molecules adsorbed on the surface of graphene would lead to change of the effective refractive index of the composite waveguide, resulting in the corresponding wavelength drift and attenuation. By detecting the change of the output optical signal, the concentration of gas molecules could be detected. Based on this principle, the sensor realized a gas sensitivity of 1.2×104nm. The research shows that the sensing structure has the advantages of small volume, good mechanical strength, good spectral quality and high sensitivity etc.

    In medical ultrasound imaging, amplitude and phase estimation (APES) beamforming algorithm makes the amplitude estimation of the desired signal more robustly, but it is at the expense of resolution. To solve this problem, the adaptive beamforming algorithm was proposed which was based on APES and was combined with subspace projection. Firstly, the weighted vector was calculated by the amplitude phase estimation algorithm, and then the weighted vector was projected to the desired signal subspace of the echo signal to suppress the noise and interference, and to improve the resolution and contrast of the image. The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm is superior to the original amplitude and phase estimation algorithm in terms of resolution, contrast and robustness.

    Abstract ( 714 )   HTML   PDF (588KB) ( 942 )  
    In the missile defense system, there is not only the continuously evolving of trajectories, but also the decision of the event strategy. The differential game and the event game cannot effectively describe the hybrid characteristics alone. Therefore, the missile defense system was regarded as a kind of hybrid system, and hybrid game modeling method of missile interception process (MIP) was proposed. Then the event game model of missile interception was established based on the HSTPN (hybrid stochastic timed Petri net), and the differential game model of the missile interception process was established based on the dynamic model of the missile. Taking the “Minuteman Ⅲ”as the example, the hybrid process was simulated with some practical cases. It was turned out to be that the hybrid interception description scheme based on hybrid games can describe not only the continuous trajectories of missile, but also selection of strategy.

    Identification of benign and malignant pulmonary nodules is an important task during the diagnosis of lung cancer. Aimed for solving this problem, a method of measuring the malignancy of pulmonary nodules based on the attributed relational graph (ARG) was proposed. Feature structures of input lung nodule CT image patches were constructed with ARGs and the nodule category template was built by mining and-or graph (AoG) from ARGs in the proposed method. Moreover, Markov blanket discovering algorithm was applied for discriminative features selection to reduce the node number of ARGs, so the computational complexity of the graph matching for AoG mining was greatly reduced. Experimental results show that the recognition rate of malignant pulmonary nodules is up to 90.12%, thus the proposed method can help identify the benign and malignant pulmonary nodules accurately and rapidly.

By selecting the appropriate state space and the definition domain of the system operator, the equations were transformed into an abstract Cauchy problem in a Banach space. With the functional analysis method and linear operator semigroup theory, the eigenvalue 0 was proved to be the strictly dominant simple eigenvalue of the system. It shows the solution of the system is asymptotically stable. Then by studying the spectrum distribution of the main operator of the system, it was proved that the essential spectrum bound of the main operator of the system is negative. Finally, the variation of essential spectrum bound of the main operator under compact perturbation were discussed. The results demonstrate that the dynamic solution of the system is exponentially stable.

    Abstract ( 640 )   HTML   PDF (383KB) ( 545 )  
    An index method of string collection was proposed based on BWT (Burrows-wheeler-transform) for solving the exact substring queries with string length and matching position constraints. Firstly, the BWT and exact string query based on it were discussed. Then the impact of string collection, string length and substring position upon the original BWT index was analyzed. Finally, the fast calculation problem was discussed and solved from the position of the matching suffix to the string ID and position on the string of the matching substring. The approximate string matching was conducted on three real string collections and compared the results of index method proposed and the original one. The experimental results showed that the method proposed based on BWT speeded up the process of exact substring queries with string length and matching position constraints considerably in the case of keeping the index size. Therefore, the proposed method was suitable for indexing large-scale string collection for string similarity match and joint.

    LIN Zeng, CHEN Bin, QIAO Hong, ZHAO Xiao-bo
    2018, 39 (7):  981-985.  DOI: 10.12068/j.issn.1005-3026.2018.07.014
    Abstract ( 649 )   HTML   PDF (905KB) ( 684 )  
    Using arc ion plating, CrAlN coatings were deposited on high speed steels. The effects of the negative bias voltage on microstructure and properties of the CrAlN coatings were investigated through analyzing surface morphologies, microstructure, microhardness, adhesion strength and tribological properties. The results showed that with the increase of the negative bias voltage, the surface macroparticles reduced gradually and the coating became denser. However, further increasing the negative bias voltage over -200V, the ion bombarding was so strong that many defects reappeared on the coating surface. Therefore, the grain size reached a minimum value and the coating was well crystallized at the bias voltage of -200V. Moreover, it was found that the microhardness and adhesion strength firstly increased and then decreased with the increase of the negative bias voltage. When the voltage was -200V, the microhardness reached the maximum value of 28.6GPa and the coating performed the best tribological properties.

    Influence of Thermal Reserve Zone Temperature in Blast Furnace on Gas Utilization Rate
    MENG Fan-chao, ZOU Zong-shu
    2018, 39 (7):  985-989.  DOI: 10.12068/j.issn.1005-3026.2018.07.015
    Abstract ( 776 )   HTML   PDF (393KB) ( 928 )  
    The relationship between temperature of thermal reserve zone and the gas utilization rate of blast furnace was investigated. Considering thermodynamics and practical condition, only the reduction of ferrous oxide occurs in the thermal reserve zone. Thus, the thermodynamic analysis and kinetic analysis of reduction reactions in thermal reserve zone were carried out with standard Gibbs free energy calculation and unreacted shrinking core model, respectively. The results of thermodynamic analysis show that only when the (H2+H2O) volume fraction is smaller than 0.3, lowering temperature is effective for improving gas utilization. The kinetic analysis shows that decreasing temperature from 1273K to 1223K, the reduction rate with H2 decreases more than that with CO, showing that the influence of temperature on the reduction with H2 is greater than that with CO. For most blast furnaces, the required reduction time is somewhat longer than the burden residence time in the thermal reserve zone, which means that the reduction reactions in thermal reserve zone don’t attain their equilibria, and lowering temperature is not effective for improving gas utilization.

    Abstract ( 738 )   HTML   PDF (552KB) ( 561 )  
    Using sinters with different MgO contents as raw material, the effects of MgO content and nut coke mixed charging on the melting temperature, melting zone and maximum pressure drop of sinter bed were investigated, and the change of melting temperature was analyzed. The experimental results show that, when MgO mass fraction in sinter increases from 1.3% to 2.0%, the starting melting temperature (tS) changes slightly, the dripping temperature (tD) increases, the melting zone (tD-tS) increases from 156℃ to 207℃, and the maximum pressure drop increases from 10kPa to 11kPa. When sinter with w(MgO)=2.0% is mixed with nut coke, tS increases from 1312℃ to 1324℃, tD decreases from 1519℃ to 1480℃, melting zone (tD-tS) decreases from 207℃ to 156℃, and the maximum pressure drop decreases from 11kPa to 7kPa, showing that the mixed charging of sinter with nut coke can improve the melting-dripping property of burden.

    Study on Evolution of Phase Precipitation in High Aluminum Slags
    LI Qiang, PAN Tao, ZHANG Han-yang, DING Hao
    2018, 39 (7):  995-999.  DOI: 10.12068/j.issn.1005-3026.2018.07.017
    Abstract ( 599 )   HTML   PDF (1074KB) ( 591 )  
    To improve the leaching performance of high alumina slags, DSC and SEM-EDS analyses were employed to study the phase precipitation behaviors of high alumina slags during solidification with controlled cooling rates. The effects of cooling rate,n(CaO)/n(Al2O3) and MgO content on the evolution of phase precipitation were discussed. The results show that when the cooling rate increases, the solidification process tends to have severer segregation, the C2S phase transformation becomes more insufficient and the particle turns obviously coarse, so that the self-pulverization and leaching performance deteriorate. With the increase of n(CaO)/n(Al2O3) in the slags, the precipitation temperature of C12A7 rises and the activities of precipitation phases increase gradually as CA→C12A7→C3A. When the slags contains MgO, the phase of C2MS2 appears, which is detrimental to the phase transition of C2S. More importantly, MgO enriching in aluminum-bearing phase leads to the formation of Q phase, which deteriorates greatly the leaching and recovery rate of alumina.

    Abstract ( 666 )   HTML   PDF (1867KB) ( 673 )  
    A self-induced structure was designed for the trailing edge of the guide vane of a centrifugal compressor to reduce the impact of rotor-stator interaction and the aerodynamic load on the following impeller, which improved the safety of the impeller. Through the effect of pressure differences, the structure of the trailing edge of the guide vane regulated the flow phenomenon and the partial wake of the guide vane was compensated. Based on the numerical simulation, a centrifugal compressor with adjustable inlet guide vane was used as an example. The results showed that the self-induced flow in the guide vane is not remarkable at the 0 degree guide vane angle. With the increase of the guide vane angle, the wall separation flow and the pressure differences on the guide vane are increased, and the internal self-induced flow is strengthened. With small increase of wake intensity near the root, the wakes distribution at the middle and top is improved, i.e. the pure wake reduces to a weak wake, which further decreases the aerodynamic load on the impeller. Meanwhile, without any injection air, the self-induced structure has little influence on the compressor performance.

    Abstract ( 649 )   HTML   PDF (1316KB) ( 721 )  
    With the stiffness characteristics and boundary conditions considered, L-P theory and slicing method were introduced to calculate the rated life of the main bearing in the tunnel boring machine (TBM) used in the second section of the diversion project’s main line for the central region of Jilin province. The statistical analysis of TBM thrust force record was carried out to calculate the life of the main bearing based on Miner’s cumulative damage theory. The results showed that the internal load distribution of the main bearing is greatly affected by the stiffness characteristics of the connection structures, and the slicing method is suitable well for calculating the main bearing’s rated life. With the modified size and form of the connection structure, the uniformity of raceway load distribution is improved greatly and the main bearing’s rated life is extended. In statistics, the TBM thrust forces are truncated normal distribution approximately, and the service life of the main bearing could be calculated based on the rated thrust force.

    Abstract ( 791 )   HTML   PDF (3689KB) ( 663 )  
    Pre-processing function for RFPA3D is not so strong that rock mass model with complex geomorphology could not be effectively and conveniently built. While SURPAC, a professional mining software, has a strong ability in modeling complex geological body. Besides, the requirement of unit types for both two softwares is hexahedral. On this basis, a method to build the model in RFPA3D from SURPAC was proposed. According to the data relationship between the two softwares, a conversion program named STOR.m was developed in MATLAB to achieve the model conversion from SURPAC to RFPA3D. The program was used in a slope instability analysis model in an open pit iron mine. Results show that the model conversion method can be applied conveniently and extends the application of SURPAC and RFPA3D.

    ZHAO Yong, YANG Tian-hong, YU Qing-lei, ZHANG Peng-hai
    2018, 39 (7):  1038-1043.  DOI: 10.12068/j.issn.1005-3026.2018.07.025
    Abstract ( 686 )   HTML   PDF (982KB) ( 642 )  
    Uniaxial compression experiments were carried out for granite specimen with pre-existing cracks. Variation laws of rock strength and elastic modulus under different crack angles were obtained, and the crack propagation process was recorded. The calculation model for rock particle flow under different flaw inclinations was established and the micro-parameters of calculation model were calibrated based on the laboratory testing results. Crack information during the crack propagation process was extracted by FISH language and was also analyzed in detail. The results show that with the increase of crack inclination, both the crack initiation stress and initiation angle increase continuously. The crack propagation types change from wing-crack-dominated to secondary-crack-dominated. Through the analysis of crack aggregation coefficient, it is found that with the increase of crack angle, the curve of crack aggregation coefficient changes from smooth to tortuous, and the crack propagation path is under the transition from concentrated to decentralized.

    WANG Qing, TIAN Wei-xi, GU Xiao-wei, QIN Zong-chen
    2018, 39 (7):  1044-1048.  DOI: 10.12068/j.issn.1005-3026.2018.07.026
    Abstract ( 597 )   HTML   PDF (349KB) ( 502 )  
    Based on the theory of floating cone exclusive and dynamic programming method, dynamic optimization of the staging scheme was used in open-pit mines. The optimal installment scheme could be obtained under the conditions of the different iron ore market by using 20 million tons of ore quantity as boundary increment to produce a series of geological optimal candidate boundaries by using cone elimination, and dynamic programming for the maximum of the net present value. The results showed that when the average price growth rate are 1.5%,3% and 4.5%, and the corresponding annual growth rate of production costs are 0.5%, 1% and 2%, the best scheme is divided into two stages and three stages. The economic net present value of the two stages of mining scheme is 1.2%, 3% and 4.3% more than that of the three stage mining scheme, but the amount of ore is 9.2%, 7.9%, and 13.1% less than that of three stage mining scheme. It can be seen that the net present value or the amount of mineral resources has a very important influence on the selection of the optimal scheme.

    Risk Analysis of Rail Haulage Accident Based on Composite Model
    XU Qing-wei, XU Kai-li
    2018, 39 (7):  1048-1052.  DOI: 10.12068/j.issn.1005-3026.2018.07.027
    Abstract ( 603 )   HTML   PDF (810KB) ( 648 )  
    A composite risk analysis model was put forward to analyze the rail haulage accident in inclined tunnel systematically. The model combines preliminary hazard analysis-layer of protection analysis (PHA-LOPA) with bow-tie analysis together based on Bayesian network. First, taking advantage of two-way reasoning ability of Bayesian network identified the risk Bayesian accident nodes with the help of GeNIe software. Second, the accident nodes was studied using PHA-LOPA to determine the causes and results of the accident, and to set independent protection layer to reduce the risk level of the accident nodes. Third, bow-tie analysis was performed on the accident node where the residual risk level was still high, safety barriers were set and the occurrence of the accident was further controlled. The proposed composite risk analysis model was applied to a rail haulage accident in inclined tunnel in a mine, and the validity and feasibility was verified by the results.

    Executive Power, Heterogeneity of Institutional Investors and the Speed of Capital Structure Adjustment
    HOU Li, ZHONG Tian-li, ZHANG Tian-yu
    2018, 39 (7):  1053-1058.  DOI: 10.12068/j.issn.1005-3026.2018.07.028
    Abstract ( 542 )   HTML   PDF (392KB) ( 645 )  
    The fixed effect model based on the data of China’s A-share listed companies in 2000~2015 was used to analyze the effect of executive power on the speed of capital structure adjustment. Then the effect of institutional investors’ holding and its heterogeneity on the relationship between executive power and the speed of capital structure adjustment was further investigated. The results showed that the more powerful an executive has, the lower the speed of capital structure adjustment would be. After distinguishing different debt levels, the negative relationship between executive power and the speed of capital structure adjustment exists only when the actual captical structure is lower than the target level. On the whole, institutional investors’ holding has no significant influence on the relationship between executive power and the speed of capital structure adjustment. However, stable institutional investors’ holding can weaken the negative correlation between executive power and the speed of capital structure adjustment with respect to short-termism institutional investors. It contributes to the restraint of executive power and optimizes the decision making of capital structure.

    Evaluation and Construction of the Governance Capacity of the Supervisory Board of Mixed Ownership Enterprises
    YANG Kai, ZHAO Xi-nan
    2018, 39 (7):  1059-1064.  DOI: 10.12068/j.issn.1005-3026.2018.07.029
    Abstract ( 544 )   HTML   PDF (384KB) ( 506 )  
    The complementarity of the individual advantages of the governance capacity of the supervisory board is a necessary condition for the development of mixed ownership economy. It is an important basis to judge the individual advantages of the governance capacity. Based on the idea of competitive superiority, the value parameter was determined from the most favorable perspective of the enterprise being evaluated, and the individual advantage discriminant model and the democratic discriminant model of the supervisory board’s governance capacity of mixed enterprises were put forward. At the same time, the model solution was given. A total of 10 mixed ownership enterprises in China were used as the research samples, and based on the evaluation method of the supervisory board’s governance capacity using individual advantages, a calculation example was analyzed and the countermeasures were raised for scientific evaluation.
