This paper proves that, under the local Lipschitz condition, the stochastic functional differential equations with infinite delay have global solutions without the linear growth condition. Furthermore, the pth moment exponential stability conditions are given. Finally, one example is presented to illustrate our theory. 相似文献
This paper develops a cluster-led strategic policy framework to assess the strategic positioning of key global logistics cities in Asia, most of which are affected by the ‘Belt and Road (B&R) Initiative.’ One of the key challenges that the B&R Initiative is facing is underdeveloped logistics infrastructure in Asia, not to mention road congestion, dilapidated infrastructure, incessant supply chain disruptions, and capacity constraint, which imposes significant economic costs.
Global logistics cities are evaluated on logistics infrastructure capacity and service responsiveness. This involves selecting the key global logistics cities, identifying key indicators, standardising and indexing, mapping dimensions of global logistics cities, and developing the cluster-led strategic policy framework.
The results indicate the prevalence of a multi-tier system wherein Shanghai and Hong Kong have attained the maturity of a global logistics city, whilst Manila, Jakarta, and Bangalore are making slow but steady progress in that direction. In contrast, Dhaka, Phnom Penh, and Ho Chi Minh City are showing potential but require further enhancement through significant investment in infrastructure and service delivery improvement.
The cluster-led strategic policy framework formulates actions and strategies through which emergent logistics networks can be strategically aligned and functionally integrated with B&R-oriented global trading hubs and transport corridors.. 相似文献
Recently, as climate changes have manifested worldwide, every country is making efforts to prevent ozone depletion and global
warming. In the automotive industry, R-134a refrigerant is widely used in air conditioning systems because it has zero ozone
depletion potential (ODP). Unfortunately, its global warming potential (GWP) is high. Therefore, alternative refrigerants
are needed as a replacement for R-134a. R-152a is considered to be one of the better alternative refrigerants due to zero
ODP and low GWP. In this paper, the performance of an automotive air conditioning system using R-134a and one using R-152a
are compared experimentally at the bench level. The experimental apparatus simulated a real automotive air conditioning system
consisting of a cabin and engine room structure. The cooling capacity, condensing capacity, coefficient of performance (COP)
and power consumption characteristics of the automotive air conditioning system are evaluated by changing the air velocity
entering the condenser and the compressor rotation speed with the optimized refrigerant charge amount. Also, the performance
of the R-152a system was investigated by changing the thermostatic expansion valve which is set of values. The results of
this study show that the R-152a system is slightly better than the R-134a system, not only under driving conditions but also
under idling condition. R-152a refrigerant thus shows promise as an alternative refrigerant to replace the current standard,
R-134a, in automotive air conditioning systems. 相似文献
