钢夹层板数值模拟技术

Sandwich plate systems (SPS) are advanced materials that have begun to receive extensive attention in naval architecture and ocean engineering. At present, according to the rules of classification societies, a mixture of shell and solid elements are required to simulate an SPS. Based on the principle of stiffness decomposition, a new numerical simulation method for shell elements was proposed. In accordance with the principle of stiffness decomposition, the total stiffness can be decomposed into the bending stiffness and shear stiffness. Displacement and stress response related to bending stiffness was calculated with the laminated shell element. Displacement and stress response due to shear was calculated by use of a computational code write by FORTRAN language. Then the total displacement and stress response for the SPS was obtained by adding together these two parts of total displacement and stress. Finally, a rectangular SPS plate and a double-bottom structure were used for a simulation. The results show that the deflection simulated by the elements proposed in the paper is larger than the same simulated by solid elements and the analytical solution according to Hoff theory and approximate to the same simulated by the mixture of shell-solid elements, and the stress simulated by the elements proposed in the paper is approximate to the other simulating methods. So compared with calculations based on a mixture of shell and solid elements, the numerical simulation method given in the paper is more efficient and easier to do.     

基于特征的单帧红外小目标检测

针对红外小目标自身的特点,给出了一种改进的检测方法：首先通过低通滤波进行预处理,然后保留灰度值大于预处理图像均值的点。由于小目标在红外图像上所占像素很少且是区域能量较高的点,遍历整幅图像,滤除连续的像素点,得到小目标或斑目标,为了进一步检测分割出候选目标点,考虑到目标点的局部能量较大的特征,通过合理的设定阈值,缩小目标点的范围,为后续目标轨迹的检测提供基础。     

基于旅客出行意图的航线潜在价值计算模型

传统的航线价值计算通常以统计客流量为主,忽略了旅客偏好对航线潜在价值的影响,因此,本文提出了一种基于旅客出行意图的航线潜在价值计算模型.该模型利用最大似然估计法对旅客舱位偏好进行量化,然后引入出行意图的概念将旅客出行行为进行细分,并利用Gibbs Sampling方法实现出行意图的求解,最终达到航线潜在价值计算的目的.在中国民航旅客订票数据集上的实验表明,本文方法获得的2010年航线价值序列与2011年航线价值序列的相似度要明显高于统计客流量的方法,且对排名前5的高价值航线的挖掘准确率可达100%.     

旋转调制式捷联惯导系统初始对准方案研究

初始对准技术是惯性导航的关键技术之一,其精度将直接影响导航精度。旋转调制式捷联惯导系统在一定的旋转方案下虽然可以将惯性组件的误差调制掉从而提高系统导航精度,但其初始对准的误差则不受调制,所以有必要对旋转调制式惯导系统的初始对准进行深入研究,确定适合旋转式捷联系统使用的对准技术和方案以进一步提高系统精度。文章对可应用于旋转调制式捷联惯导系统的三种对准方案做了研究分析并进行了仿真。结果显示,二位置对准方案可显著提高系统变量的可观测度,连续旋转方案对准精度最高,收敛速度最快,效果最好。     

经验模式能量在脉动信号分析中的应用

After an aerial object enters the water, physical changes to sounds in the water caused by the accompanying bubbles are quite complex. As a result, traditional signal analyzing methods cannot identify the real physical object. In view of this situation, a novel method for analyzing the sounds caused by an aerial object’s entry into water was proposed. This method analyzes the vibrational mode of the bubbles by using empitical mode decomposition. Experimental results showed that this method can efficiently remove noise and extract the broadband pulse signal and low-frequency fluctuating signal, producing an accurate resolution of entry time and frequency. This shows the improved performance of the proposed method.

计算水平桩的修正双参数法

指出了双参数法微分方程在公式推导与参数取值方面存在的不足,对微分方程中深度的幂数进行了修正并推导出计算公式。修正参数后的推导公式克服了原公式取值只能为正整数1和有限个小数的缺陷,使取值可取任意整数和小数,从而拓宽了参数的取值范围。当桩在弯矩和水平力共同作用时,利用桩的边值问题可求得桩身各截面的弯矩、剪力、位移、转角。实例计算证明,用修正后的幂数作为参数,推导正确,取值灵活且与实测值很接近。     

Examining stakeholder participation and conflicts associated with large scale infrastructure projects: the case of Tema port expansion project,Ghana

ABSTRACT

Balancing economic activities with socio-environmental considerations has become a global standard for the construction of large scale infrastructure projects, including ports. In this discourse, stakeholder participation and environmental and social impact assessment (ESIA) have been stressed as important tools that can help port managers to co-create values, avoid conflicts and promote inclusive growth. Drawing on qualitative research tools and stakeholder theory, this paper explores whether and to what extent local stakeholders’ inclusion has substantial influence on addressing their socio-cultural concerns and interest. This is illustrated with a case study of an ongoing port expansion project at Ghana’s largest port of Tema. The findings suggest that although the port authority conducted an ESIA and engaged local stakeholders as part of the planning process, this did not translate into preventing the loss of valuable cultural resources of the local communities. The port authority did not place ‘value’ on cultural resources of the local communities that cannot be expressed in monetary terms. Further, lack of good faith engagement with local stakeholders led to conflicts in some cases that triggered a court action and delays. The paper concludes that stakeholder participation if not applied well, can become a ‘post-political’ tool.
