Optimal Deployment of Dynamic Wireless Charging Lanes for Electric Vehicles considering the Battery Charging Rate

Dynamic wireless charging (DWC) technology enables the charging of electric vehicles (EVs) en route without the need for stopping on long-distance trips. Based on DWC technology, a dynamic wireless charging system (DWCS) concept is proposed...

Selection of Design Scheme for an Ultrahigh-Pressure Hydrostatic Extrusion Cylinder

In this study, the mechanical models of a multilayer combined extrusion cylinder and a steel-wire-winding extrusion cylinder were established and compared using a finite element simulation and existing experimental cases. This work provides...

Extrapolative prediction in multiphase flow pipelines: a multi-fidelity surrogate approach with stacking ensemble

Accurate extrapolation of multiphase flow behaviour in offshore pipelines is hindered by limited field data, simulator bias, and strong nonlinearities. A multi-fidelity surrogate approach with stacking ensemble is proposed to address these ...

Physical model test study on shear strength characteristics of slope sliding surface in Nanfen open-pit mine

A physical model for the footwall slope of Nanfen open-pit mine, China was established using a self-developed deep geological engineering disaster model test system. A thermosensitive similar material, paraffin, was selected to simulate a w...

Engineering protein translocation pathway to improve recombinant proteins in Pichia pastoris

Pichia pastoris is one of the most commonly used hosts for producing heterologous proteins, whereas production levels vary depending on the protein of interest and are also regulated by regulatory factors. We conducted RNA-seq by expressing...

A QoE-Aware Energy Supply Scheme over a FiWi Access Network in the 5G Era

Integrated fiber-wireless (FiWi) should be regarded as a promising access network architecture in future 5G networks, and beyond; this due to its seamless combination of flexibility, ubiquity, mobility of the wireless mesh network (WMN) fro...

Accurate detection of selective forwarding attack in wireless sensor networks

Selective forwarding attack in wireless sensor networks shows great impact on network performance and consumes limited energy resource. In previous countermeasures, it is assumed that all nodes in the communication range can detect misbehav...

Efficient and Memory Saving Method Based on Pseudoskeleton Approximation for Analysis of Finite Periodic Structures

An efficient and memory saving method based on pseudoskeleton approximation (PSA) is presented for the effective and accurate analysis of finite periodic structures. Different from the macro basis function analysis model, our proposed metho...

SA-M-SBL: An Algorithm for CSI-Based Device-Free Localization With Faulty Prior Information

As an emerging technique, device-free localization (DFL) is promising to localize the target without attaching any transceivers. Recently, the benefits of channel state information (CSI) on DFL have been revealed in this paper. Motivated by...

Development of Power-to-X Catalytic Processes for CO₂ Valorisation: From the Molecular Level to the Reactor Architecture

Nowadays, global climate change is likely the most compelling problem mankind is facing. In this scenario, decarbonisation of the chemical industry is one of the global challenges that the scientific community needs to address in the immedi...

The impact of the consistency evaluation policy of generic drugs on the integration of innovation chain and industrial chain in the pharmaceutical manufacturing industry
