摘要:
With the gradual networking of inter-city relations and the increase in acute impact and chronic stress, the measurement of the resilience of urban network structures is particularly prominent. Based on the construction of the urban network by passenger train trips in the Yellow River Basin, this paper analyzes and assesses the characteristics of the structural resilience of the urban network, and probes into the network resilience and urban response under the circumstances of node failure and line failure in Zhengzhou. The main conclusions are as follows: (1) The urban network in the Yellow River Basin was clearly hierarchical, with a significant spatial distribution of “low in the north and high in the south”, and the overall characteristics of “robustness” in small areas and “fragility” in large areas. The network connection forms were diversified and open. The network transmission efficiency was high, and the edge cities depended on the core cities with prominent characteristics, and the risk load of regional core cities rose. (2) The network structure was “robust” as it maintained high operational efficiency and connectivity under random attacks. Under deliberate attacks, the city network operated efficiently with a small increase in connectivity before the 60% threshold, and after the threshold, the overall network started to split into many sub-networks, and the network fragmentation gradually increased until the network collapsed. (3) Zhengzhou node failure and line failure states in the Yellow River Basin urban network were resilient, in the sense that when suffering important nodes and lines going down it could still maintain good network operation efficiency, and the core nodes in the impact of natural disasters could adapt to the destructive nature of the network through the urban network structure self-regulation.

摘要:
The envelope removal method has the advantage of suppressing the background spectrum and expanding the weak absorption characteristic information. However, for second-class water bodies with a relatively complex water quality, there are few studies on the inversion of chlorophyll a (Chl-a) concentration in water bodies that consider the spectral absorption characteristics. In addition, the current research on the inversion of the Chl-a concentration was carried out under the condition of sample concentration equilibrium. For areas with a highly variable Chl-a concentration, it is still challenging to establish a highly applicable and accurate Chl-a concentration inversion model. Taking Dongting Lake in China as an example, this study used high-concentration samples and spectral absorption characteristics to invert the Chl-a concentration. The decap method was used to preprocess the high-concentration samples with large deviations, and the envelope removal method was used to extract the spectral absorption characteristic parameters of the water body. On the basis of the correlation analysis between the water Chl-a concentration and the spectral absorption characteristics, the water Chl-a concentration was inverted. The results showed the following: (1) The bands that were significantly related to the Chl-a concentration and had a large correlation coefficient were mainly located in the three absorption valleys (400-580, 580-650, and 650-710 nm) of the envelope removal curve. Moreover, the correlation between the Chl-a concentration and the absorption characteristic parameters at 650-710 nm was better than that at 400-580 nm and 580-650 nm. (2) Compared with the conventional inversion model, the uncapped inversion model had a higher R-P(2) and a lower RMSEP, and was closer to the predicted value of the 1:1 line. Moreover, the performance of the uncapped inversion model was better than that of the conventional inversion model, indicating that the uncapped method is an effective preprocessing method for high-concentration samples with large deviations. (3) The predictive capabilities of the ER_New model were significantly better than those of the R_New model. This shows that the envelope removal method can significantly amplify the absorption characteristics of the original spectrum, which can significantly improve the performance of the prediction model. (4) From the inversion models for the absorption characteristic parameters, the prediction models of A(650-710 nm)_New and D650-710 nm_New exhibited the best performance. The three combined models (A(650-710 nm)& D650-710 nm_New, A(650-710 nm)& NI_New, A(650-710 nm)& DI_New) also demonstrated good predictive capabilities. This demonstrates the feasibility of using the spectral absorption feature to retrieve the chlorophyll concentration.
摘要:
Fostering of computational thinking (CT) skills has become an essential goal for engineering courses. This paper provides and discusses a teaching approach based on model-eliciting activity (MEA) for enhancing students' CT in existing engineering courses. To verify the proposed approach, experimental studies were performed with students in the practicum unit of a computer-aided engineering course. First, we investigated the feasibility of integrating CT training into the engineering courses through guiding students to perform a topic-specific design task. Second, we compared the influences of the MEA-based approach and conventional lecture-based approach on students' learning effect with respect to course objectives and CT skills. Results show the CT-integrated teaching did not at least weaken the teaching effect of the engineering course, and the MEA-based approach seems to be more conducive to strengthening students' skills of identifying and solving problems, as well as team cooperation. Results also show the learning effect of the MEA group has apparent advantages for enhancing CT skills. These findings suggest that using MEA in engineering courses is beneficial to promote students' CT skills in terms of simplification, embedding, transformation, and simulation.
摘要:
With the rapid development of urbanization, substantial land areas and houses are expropriated, which can cause huge numbers of disputes related to expropriation compensation. The root of the disputes is that the associated subjects are affected by various behavioral preferences and make different cognitive fairness judgments based on the same compensation price. However, the existing expropriation compensation strategies based on the market value under the assumption of "the economic man" hypothesis cannot meet the fairness preference demands of the expropriated. Therefore, finding a compensation price that satisfies subjects' multidimensional fairness preferences, including profit-seeking, loss aversion, and interactive fairness preferences, is necessary. Only in this way can the subjects reach an agreement regarding fair compensation and resolve their disputes. Because of the fuzziness of subjects' expected revenues, this paper innovatively introduces trigonometric intuitional fuzzy numbers to construct one-dimensional and multidimensional fair fuzzy equilibrium evaluation models. The Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to an Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) method is adopted to convert a multidimensional problem into a multiattribute group decision problem, which simplifies the problem of finding multidimensional equilibrium when considering the multidimensional fairness preferences of the two subjects. Real case data are introduced to verify the validity of this method. The research results show that upward revision of the multidimensional fairness preferences based on the market value assists in achieving a fair compensation agreement. Consideration of the influence of the subjects' multidimensional fairness preferences on the fairness equilibrium is conducive to resolving the disputes, and provides a reference for the settlement of expropriation compensation disputes in developing countries.
摘要:
As an emerging urban public transport mode, responsive feeder transit system is flexible and can offer door-to-door services between new districts at margins with low urban transit coverage and trunk bus station. In this study, a joint optimization of running route and scheduling for responsive feeder transit under mixed demand (i.e., reservation and real-time demands) of the time-dependent road network was investigated. A two-stage optimization method was designed together with considering the mixed demands. At the first stage, the initial running route and scheduling were determined according to all reservation demands. At the second stage, the running route and scheduling were continuously optimized based on the real-time demands. The real-time demand responsive strategy, which is built up by using quantitative batch treatment rather than immediate treatment and dynamic route updating strategy for global optimization, were designed by utilizing the submission order of real-time demands. A joint optimization model of running route and scheduling was constructed based on the quantitative batch decision points in the time-dependent road network together with combination of the actual road network. In this model, the minimum total system cost was used, which is composed of the vehicle running costs and passengers' traveling time costs with constraints including vehicle capacity, passengers' time window, and vehicle running time. A solving algorithm based on the adaptive genetic algorithm was designed by considering the characteristics of the joint optimization model.

摘要:
Economic systems, due to their substantial effects on any society, are interesting research subject for a large family of researchers. Despite all attempts to study economic and financial systems, studies on discrete-time macroeconomic systems are rare. Hence, in the current study, we aim to investigate dynamical behavior and synchronization of these systems. At first, the discrete-time mathematical model of the macroeconomic system is presented. Then, the system is studied through topological classification, bifurcation analysis, Lyapunov exponents, and manifold theory, which are powerful tools in the investigation of nonlinear systems. This way, the features of the system are disclosed, and the existence of chaos in the system is shown. For the adequate performance of the economy, the economic systems are desired to operate in a unified manner. To this end, in the present research, a fuzzy based-activation feedback controller is proposed for the synchronization of the system. To enhance the celerity and accuracy of the proposed control for synchronization purposes, it is equipped with a fuzzy logic engine. Finally, the numerical simulations of the synchronization are presented and compared with those of a conventional activation feedback control. Numerical results verify that the proposed control technique can successfully push the states of the response system to the desired value. (C) 2020 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

摘要:
Understanding and modeling of land use change is of great significance to environmental protection and land use planning. The cellular automata-Markov chain (CA-Markov) model is a powerful tool to predict the change of land use, and the prediction accuracy is limited by many factors. To explore the impact of land use and socio-economic factors on the prediction of CA-Markov model on county scale, this paper uses the CA-Markov model to simulate the land use of Anren County in 2016, based on the land use of 1996 and 2006. Then, the correlation between the land use, socio-economic data and the prediction accuracy was analyzed. The results show that Shannon’s evenness index and population density having an important impact on the accuracy of model predictions, negatively correlate with kappa coefficient. The research not only provides a reference for correct use of the model but also helps us to understand the driving mechanism of landscape changes.
摘要:
Purpose Nowadays, the rapid growth of information technology strategies such as cloud computing is very noticeable in organizations. The advantages of the cloud environment are unavoidable because of an increase in innovation, flexibility and economy. Therefore, the critical topic is considering the factors affecting the adoption of cloud computing. This study aims to understand the factors of the adoption of cloud computing and its benefit in companies. Design/methodology/approach A research framework with four hypotheses has been developed based on the results of previous studies. Structural equation modeling has been used for data analysis. Findings The proposed model is verified by the results. In addition, the results have shown that cloud computing adoption is affected by four variables as follows, including human factor (with sub-indicator personal innovativeness and knowledge), organizational factor (with sub-indicator size, adequacy of resources and top management support), technical factor (with sub-indicator compatibility and security) and environmental factor (with sub-indicator regulatory environment, competitive pressure and trading partner). Research limitations/implications There are crucial implications in the findings: they have an essential contribution to the research community, administrators and Information and Communications Technology providers with respect to framing improved tactics for the adoption of cloud computing. The proposed model can enhance the perception of service providers about why some services sectors accept cloud computing amenities, whereas apparently the same ones having the same market situations do not. In addition, the above providers should enhance their interaction with the services sectors contributed to the cloud computing experience to make a well-organized setting for the adoption of cloud computing, and eliminate any ambiguity about this sort of technology. Moreover, the sample has been limited to Iran respondents. Practical implications The research studies about the usage of cloud computing have shown its effects on organizations today. Also, the different impacts of cloud computing on other contexts and organizations are in the center of attention. By carefully considering and managing cloud computing adoption logics, organizations could get significant advantages. Originality/value Cloud computing's technical and operational issues have been central in most of the previous studies. Some surveys have referred to the adoption of cloud computing by the organizations in terms of human characteristics or the contextual factor. Therefore, there should be a model and outline to assess the effect of aforesaid factors on cloud computing adoption.
摘要:
This paper provides and illustrates a design-based learning (DBL) approach for fostering individual sustainability competency in engineering education. We performed two studies with engineering students in typical educational activities. The first study helped students perform a topic-specific design task in the practicum unit of a sensor technology course, which compared the performance of the DBL approach and conventional passive learning approach. The second study guided students to develop innovative projects for participating in the "Internet Plus" Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competition (IPIEC). To validate the proposed approach, stakeholder questionnaires and performance evaluations were implemented. The results show that the DBL approach was viable for sustainability competency teaching in terms of learning demand and teaching procedure. We found that students in the DBL group gave more prominence in the individual competencies, such as system-thinking, multidisciplinary applications, and collaboration. These findings suggest that applying the DBL approach to train sustainability competency in engineering education is beneficial for promoting students' abilities in dealing with challenges involved in sustainability practice.

摘要:
Chromium is not only an essential trace element for the growth and development of living organisms; it is also a heavy metal pollutant. Excessive chromium in farmland soil will not only cause harm to crops, but could also constitute a serious threat to human health through the cumulative effect of the food chain. The determination of heavy metals in tailings of farmland soil is an essential means of soil environmental protection and sustainable development. Hyperspectral remote sensing technology has good characteristics, e.g., high speed, macro, and high resolution, etc., and has gradually become a focus of research to determine heavy metal content in soil. However, due to the spectral variation caused by different environmental conditions, the direct application of the indoor spectrum to conduct field surveys is not effective. Soil components are complex, and the effect of linear regression of heavy metal content is not satisfactory. This study builds indoor and outdoor spectral conversion models to eliminate soil spectral differences caused by environmental conditions. Considering the complex effects of soil composition, we introduce a support vector machine model to retrieve chromium content that has advantages in solving problems such as small samples, non-linearity, and a large number of dimensions. Taking a mining area in Hunan, China as a test area, this study retrieved the chromium content in the soil using 12 combination models of three types of spectra (field spectrum, lab spectrum, and direct standardization (DS) spectrum), two regression methods (stepwise regression and support vector machine regression), and two factors (strong correlation factor and principal component factor). The results show that: (1) As far as the spectral types are concerned, the inversion accuracy of each combination of the field spectrum is generally lower than the accuracy of the corresponding combination of other spectral types, indicating that field environmental interference affects the modeling accuracy. Each combination of DS spectra has higher inversion accuracy than the corresponding combination of field spectra, indicating that DS spectra have a certain effect in eliminating soil spectral differences caused by environmental conditions. (2) The inversion accuracy of each spectrum type of SVR_SC (Support Vector Regression_Strong Correlation) is the highest for the combination of regression method and inversion factor. This indicates the feasibility and superiority of inversion of heavy metals in soil by a support vector machine. However, the inversion accuracy of each spectrum type of SVR_PC (Support Vector Regression_Principal Component) is generally lower than that of other combinations, which indicates that, to obtain superior inversion performance of SVR, the selection of characteristic factors is very important. (3) Through principal component regression analysis, it is found that the pre-processed spectrum is more stable for the inversion of Cr concentration. The regression coefficients of the three types of differential spectra are roughly the same. The five statistically significant characteristic bands are mostly around 384-458 nm, 959-993 nm, 1373-1448 nm, 1970-2014 nm, and 2325-2400 nm. The research results provide a useful reference for the large-scale normalization monitoring of chromium-contaminated soil. They also provide theoretical and technical support for soil environmental protection and sustainable development.
