This paper uses ProCast software to simulate Mg-Gd alloy solidification process, calculates temperature field and solidification field for Mg-9.76Gd at different stages and compares the influence of different heat transfer coefficient on the solidification structure. The results show that the crystallization process which is simulated is consistent with the actual crystallization process; as the heat transfer coefficient increases, the average grain size decreases. With the result, the reasonable casting formation control parameters can guide the practical production, which can reduce human and financial resources.

Abstract:
This paper describes the mathematical model and the computational procedure adopted for the development of a modularly structured computer code able to simulate the dynamic behaviour of recuperative gas turbine power plants. For accurate simulation of the turbine components, the model includes a stage-by-stage procedure for the air-cooled turbine based on the blade geometry and the characteristics of the cooling system. The counter-flow surface heat exchanger, assumed as recuperator, is described by a set of partial differential equations, giving à One-dimensional description of the temperature for air, hot gas and metal. A single-shaft recuperated cycle gas turbine, provided with compressor variable inlet guide vanes, is analysed. The transient cases caused by a step variation in the fuel flow and compressor guide vanes geometry are simulated and a linearized model is obtained, in order to identify the dynamic behaviour of the gas turbine and to design a multivariable controller. Finally, the transient case of a controlled turbine after a sudden variation in the electric load is simulated.

Abstract:
Deposition of silicon dioxide in high-density plasma is an important process in integrated circuit manufacturing. A software named CFD-ACE was used to simulate the mechanism of plasma in the chamber of plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) system, and the evolution of the feature profile was simulated based on CFD-TOPO. Simulation and experiment of silicon dioxide that deposited in SiH4/N2O mixture by PECVD system was researched. The particle density, energy and angular distribution in the chamber were simulated and discussed. We also studied how the depth/width ratio affected the step coverage of the trench and analyzed the deposition rate of silicon dioxide on the feature scale. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) was used to analyze the elemental composition of thin films. Images of the feature profiles were taken by scanning electron microscope (SEM). The simulation results were in good agreement with experimental, which could guide the semiconductor device manufacture.

Abstract:
Nursing notes are essential for mental health nursing, and thus they should be included in mental health education for undergraduate nursing students. In clinical settings, It has been observed that fourth-year nursing students commonly omitted critical information from the assessment of mentally ill patients, neglecting their requirements as well as losing valuable learning opportunities. For this reason, an evaluation form has been created and implemented in order to optimise the student’s learning opportunities. The main objectives that motivated the design of this instrument were to support the nursing student’s learning process, promote a systematic record of the mental examination, and apply specific descriptors in the assessment of the patient’s mental state. This evaluation form was designed according to a systematic and standardized registration system, including the main areas that compose mental health assessment. This cost-effective tool has significantly facilitated the student’s learning and training in mental health nursing. During the five-year period in which this instrument has been applied, student records improved in quality, precision, as well as a positive opinion about it from students. Besides, this document has been recently used in the context of distance education and clinical simulation in mental health by assessing patients in simulated situations, with positive outcomes

Abstract:
This paper describes models for the transient analysis of heavy duty gas turbines, and presents dynamic simulation results of a modern gas turbine for electric power generation. Basic governing equations have been derived from integral forms of unsteady conservation equations. Mathematical models of each component are described with the aid of unsteady one-dimensional governing equations and steady-state component characteristics. Special efforts have been made to predict compressor characteristics including the effect of movable vanes, which govern the operating behavior of a whole engine. The derived equation sets are solved numerically by a fully implicit method. A controller model that maintains constant rotational speed and target temperature (turbine inlet or exhaust temperature) is used to simulate practical operations. Component models, especially those of the compressor, are validated through comparison with test data. The dynamic behavior of a 150 MW class engine is simulated. The time-dependent variations of engine parameters such as power, rotational speed, fuel, temperature, and guide vane angles are compared with field data. Simulated results are fairly close to the operation data.

Abstract:
Abstract Introduction This article presents an emerging capability to project damage control procedures far forward for situations where evacuation to a formal surgical team is delayed. Specifically, we demonstrate the plausibility of using a wearable augmented reality (AR) telestration device to guide a nonsurgeon through a damage control procedure. Methods A stand-alone, low-profile, commercial-off-the-shelf wearable AR display was utilized by a remotely located surgeon to synchronously guide a nonsurgeon through proximal control of the distal external iliac artery on a surgical manikin. The manikin wound pattern was selected to simulate a rapidly exsanguinating junctional hemorrhage not controllable by nonsurgical means. Results This capability demonstration displayed successful use of AR technology, telecommunication, and procedural training and guidance in a single test pilot. The assisted physician assistant was able to rapidly control the simulated external iliac artery injury on this model. The telestration system used was commercially available for use with available civilian cell phone, wireless and satellite networks, without the need for dedicated high-speed networks. Conclusions A nonsurgeon, using a wearable commercial on-visual-axis telestration system, successfully performed a damage control procedure, demonstrating the plausibility of this approach.

Abstract:
Policy interventions to improve food access and address the obesity epidemic among disadvantaged populations are becoming more common throughout the United States. In Baltimore MD, corner stores are a frequently used source of food for low-income populations, but these stores often do not provide a range of affordable healthy foods. This research study aimed to assist city policy makers as they considered implementing a Staple Food Ordinance (SFO) that would require small stores to provide a range and depth of stock of healthy foods. A System Dynamics (SD) model was built to simulate the complex Baltimore food environment and produce optimal values for key decision variables in SFO planning. A web-based application was created for users to access this model to optimize future SFOs, and to test out different options. Four versions of potential SFOs were simulated using this application and the advantages and drawbacks of each SFO are discussed based on the simulation results. These simulations show that a well-designed SFO has the potential to reduce staple food costs, increase corner store profits, reduce food waste, and expand the market for heathy staple foods.

Abstract:
In this paper, 8 mm thickness 2205 duplex stainless steel (DSS) plates were successfully welded using keyhole tungsten inert gas welding (K-TIG) welding, and numerical simulations were performed applying the finite element method. Three models of combined heat source were adopted to verify accuracy of experiment. The welding process under different welding speeds were simulated, and the temperature field, molten pool shape, and thermal cycle curve were calculated. The welding simulation results show that a combined model consisting of the ellipsoid heat source and the conical heat source is more suitable for K-TIG welding. The results of the microstructure analysis of the welded joint showed that when the welding speed was increased from 280 mm/min to 340 mm/min, the austenite content and the ferrite and austenite grain size decreased. The evolution laws of welded joint morphologies, microstructure and grain sizes under different welding speed conditions were consistent with the analysis results of simulated molten pool morphologies, temperature field distributions and thermal cycle curves. It is proved that this kind of simulation method can effectively simulate the K-TIG welding process and ensure the welding quality, which is a guide for industrial applications.

Abstract:
The Prairie Pothole Region (PPR) of Canada contains millions of small isolated wetlands and is unique to North America. The goods and services of these isolated wetlands are highly sensitive to variations in precipitation and temperature. We evaluated the flood proofing of isolated wetlands (pothole wetlands) under various climate change scenarios in the Upper Assiniboine River Basin (UARB) at Kamsack, a headwater catchment of the Lake of the Prairies in the Canadian portion of the PPR. A modified version of the Soil Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) model was utilized to simulate projected streamflow under the potential impacts of climate change, along with changes to the distribution of pothole wetlands. Significant increases in winter streamflow (~200%) and decreases (~11%) in summer flow, driven by changes in future climates, were simulated. Simulated changes in streamflow resulting from pothole removal were between 55% for winter and 15% for summer, suggesting that climate will be the primary driver in the future hydrologic regime of the study region. This research serves as an important guide to the various stakeholder organizations involved in quantifying the aggregate impacts of pothole wetlands in the hydrology of the Canadian Prairie Region.

Apparently, prof. Korsakov In his guide, he writes: in the vast majority of cases, a person who has real inclinations of illness begins to simulate a mental illness. he says that only especially important reasons can induce a mentally healthy person to simulate insanity"; in addition, he adds that simulators, in the face of the strong mental stress to which they subject themselves, in the conclusion of their experience can continue to be useful.

Abstract. Rainfall-runoff modelling in ungauged basins is still one of the greatest challenges in recent hydrological research. The lack of discharge data necessitates the establishment of new innovative approaches to guide hydrological modelling in ungauged basins. Besides the transfer of calibrated parameters from similar gauged catchments, the application of distributed data as a hydrological response in addition to discharge seems to be promising. A new approach for model and parameter evaluation based on explicit simulation of the spatial stream network was tested in four different catchments in Germany. In a first step, spatial explicit modelling of stream networks was performed using a simplified version of the process-based model Hill-Vi together with regional climate normals. The simulated networks were compared to mapped stream networks and their degree of spatial agreement was evaluated. Significant differences between good and poor simulations could be distinguished and the corresponding parameter sets relate well with the hydrogeological properties of the catchments. The optimized parameters were subsequently used to simulate daily discharge using an observed time series of precipitation and air temperature. The performance was evaluated against observed discharge and water balance. This approach shows some promising results but also some limitations. Although the model's parsimonious model structure should to be further improved regarding discharge recession and evapotranspiration, the performance was similar to the regionalisation methods. Stream network modelling, which has minimal data requirements, seems to be a reasonable alternative for model development and parameter evaluation in ungauged basins.

AbstractA visual prosthesis provides usable visual information to the patient in the form of phosphenes, that is, punctate photic sensations seen after electrical stimulation. Stimulation via different electrodes results in phosphenes in different positions within the visual field. Simulation studies can provide data on the possible limitations of prosthetic stimulation. We used a head mounted screen to monocularly present constant or flickering light spots of different sizes, or luminance to normally sighted subjects. Subjects were asked to judge the location of the spots using a polar coordinate tactile guide; positioning average error and dispersion were analyzed. With the increase of eccentricity, the positioning average error and dispersion were also increased. The performances under large, stable and high luminance conditions were better than that under small, flickering and low luminance conditions, respectively. Repeated training sessions were shown to significantly improve the positioning performance.

Abstract:
Bipolar plate is the key component of proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cell and represents a significant part of the overall cost and the total weight in a fuel cell stack. The thin sheet metal, with usually 0.1~0.3mm thickness, deformed to bipolar plate with flow channel 0.5~2mm width and depth, by rubber pad stamping can reduce the cost greatly. The rubber pad is simulated by solid element and hydraulic pressure respectively. Experiment shows that the hydraulic pressure can simulate the rubber pad. The thin sheet metal is modeled by solid element and shell element respectively. Considering thin sheet metal material size effect, the shell element cannot simulate the thin sheet metal stamping process because of small corner radius. Modeling rubber pad by hydraulic pressure and thin sheet metal by solid element, the simulation of the rubber pad stamping process shows that 1) the sheet metal in channel appears large uneven strain with high stress; 2) convex fillet make the sheet metal two direction tensions and should keep large fillet corner. Those simulations are validated by experiments. The research on rubber pad stamping will improve the understanding of this micro forming process and provide design guide of flow channel.

Abstract:
A yield model was developed to simulate silviculture alternatives for Pinus pinea L. in north-east Spain (Catalonia). The model uses several functions to estimate the main silvicultural parameters at stand level and a disaggregation system to predict diameter distributions. From a network of 75 temporary plots a system of equations to predict stand variables was simultaneously fitted for two stand density types, namely low and high density stands, using the threestage least-squares method (3SLS). The diameter distributions were estimated by the Weibull distribution function using the parameter recovery method (PRM) and the method of moments. Based on this yield model, two silviculture alternatives were simulated for each stand density type and site class, resulting in 16 silviculture scenarios. The yield model and silviculture alternatives offer a management tool and a guide for the sustainable forest management of evenaged Pinus pinea forests in this region.

Outer guide tubes with different R angles were used to abrade the thimbles. The designed tester can well simulate the wear process in the real power plant. R angle of the outer guide tube played important role in the wear behavior of the in-core flux thimbles.

Abstract. A realistic simulation of snow cover and its thermal properties are important for accurate modelling of permafrost. We analyse simulated relationships between air and near-surface (20 cm) soil temperatures in the Northern Hemisphere permafrost region during winter, with a particular focus on snow insulation effects in nine land surface models, and compare them with observations from 268 Russian stations. There are large cross-model differences in the simulated differences between near-surface soil and air temperatures (ΔT; 3 to 14 °C), in the sensitivity of soil-to-air temperature (0.13 to 0.96 °C °C−1), and in the relationship between ΔT and snow depth. The observed relationship between ΔT and snow depth can be used as a metric to evaluate the effects of each model's representation of snow insulation, hence guide improvements to the model's conceptual structure and process parameterisations. Models with better performance apply multilayer snow schemes and consider complex snow processes. Some models show poor performance in representing snow insulation due to underestimation of snow depth and/or overestimation of snow conductivity. Generally, models identified as most acceptable with respect to snow insulation simulate reasonable areas of near-surface permafrost (13.19 to 15.77 million km2). However, there is not a simple relationship between the sophistication of the snow insulation in the acceptable models and the simulated area of Northern Hemisphere near-surface permafrost, because several other factors, such as soil depth used in the models, the treatment of soil organic matter content, hydrology and vegetation cover, also affect the simulated permafrost distribution.

Abstract:
A hydrologic and water quality model is sought to establish an approach to land management decisions for a Canadian Army training base. Training areas are subjected to high levels of persistent activity creating unique land cover and land-use disturbances. Deforestation, complex road networks, off-road manoeuvres, and vehicle stream crossings are among major anthropogenic activities observed to affect these landscapes. Expanding, preserving and improving the quality of these areas to host training activities for future generations is critical to maintain operational effectiveness. Inclusive to this objective is minimizing resultant environmental degradation, principally in the form of hydrologic fluctuations, excess erosion, and sedimentation of aquatic environments. Application of the Soil Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) was assessed for its ability to simulate hydrologic and water quality conditions observed in military landscapes at 5th Canadian Division Support Base (5 CDSB) Gagetown, New Brunswick. Despite some limitations, this model adequately simulated three partial years of daily watershed outflow (NSE = 0.47–0.79, R2 = 0.50–0.88) and adequately predicted suspended sediment yields during the observation periods (%d = 6–47%) for one highly disturbed sub-watershed in Gagetown. Further development of this model may help guide decisions to develop or decommission training areas, guide land management practices and prioritize select landscape mitigation efforts.

Abstract:
To enhance gas turbine combustor performance and emissions characteristics, better design methods need to be developed. In the present investigation, an emission model that simulates a detailed chemical kinetic scheme has been developed to provide the rate of reactions of the parent fuel, an intermediate hydrocarbon compound, CO, and H2. The intermediate fuel has variable carbon and hydrogen contents depending on operating conditions, that were selected in the development effort to simulate actual operation of rich/lean, diffusion flame, and lean combustor concepts. The developed reaction rate expressions address also the limited reaction rates that may occur in the near-wall regions of the combustor due to the admittance of radial air jets and cooling air in these regions. The validation effort included the application of the developed model to a combustor simulated by a multiple-reactor arrangement. The results indicate the accurate duplication of the calculations obtained from the detailed kinetic scheme using the developed model. This illustrates the great potential of using such a unified approach to guide the design of various types of combustor to meet the more stringent approach to guide the design of various types of combustor to meet the more stringent emissions and performance requirements of next-generation gas turbine engines.

Abstract:
This work try to optimize the flow field and concentration field of SCR system. Firstly, the original SCR system is simulated by Fluent and two kinds of guide plates are utilized. The simulation results show that the straight guide plate is slightly better than curve guide plate. The relatively standard deviation of velocity and concentration fields and pressure drop agree with the design rules. To verify the simulation results, a 1:10 scale cold plexiglass test plant is established and this plant is simulated correspondingly. The simulation results are in good agreement with experimental results. So the simulation results of original SCR system are credibly and can guide the practical engineering.

Abstract:
The Watershed Analysis Risk Management Framework (WARMF) model is adapted to simulate flow and nitrate-N transport in an agricultural watershed in Quebec, Canada. The model was evaluated for the St. Esprit Watershed (24.3 km2), which is a part of the 210 km2 St. Esprit river basin, a tributary of the L'Assomption Watershed (4,220 km2). WARMF's hydrologic calibration and validation was performed using data from the gauge station located at the outlet of the watershed. Water-quality data collected were used to guide water quality calibration/validation. Simulations were carried out from 1994 to 1996; data from 1994 and 1995 were used for model calibration and data from 1996 were used for model validation. The model performed reasonably well in simulating the hydrologic response and nitrate losses at the outlet of the watershed. The R2 between the observed and simulated monthly stream flow for calibration was 0.92, and that for validation was 0.94. The corresponding coefficients of efficiency (E) were 0.89 and 0.91. The R2 and E values for calibration/validation of NO3−-N loads simulation were 0.89/0.84 and 0.86/0.75, respectively. Thus, the model simulated monthly flow and nitrogen losses with a good degree of accuracy over the entire year.

The investigation of these flow field characteristics made use of the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to simulate the air flow in the classifier. The results indicate that smaller angles of guide vanes can increase velocity but damage the stability of flow fields, and that those larger angles will reduce the velocity.

Abstract:
An open-source framework for conducting a broad range of virtual X-ray imaging experiments,syris, is presented. The simulated wavefield created by a source propagates through an arbitrary number of objects until it reaches a detector. The objects in the light path and the source are time-dependent, which enables simulations of dynamic experiments,e.g.four-dimensional time-resolved tomography and laminography. The high-level interface ofsyrisis written in Python and its modularity makes the framework very flexible. The computationally demanding parts behind this interface are implemented in OpenCL, which enables fast calculations on modern graphics processing units. The combination of flexibility and speed opens new possibilities for studying novel imaging methods and systematic search of optimal combinations of measurement conditions and data processing parameters. This can help to increase the success rates and efficiency of valuable synchrotron beam time. To demonstrate the capabilities of the framework, various experiments have been simulated and compared with real data. To show the use case of measurement and data processing parameter optimization based on simulation, a virtual counterpart of a high-speed radiography experiment was created and the simulated data were used to select a suitable motion estimation algorithm; one of its parameters was optimized in order to achieve the best motion estimation accuracy when applied on the real data.syriswas also used to simulate tomographic data sets under various imaging conditions which impact the tomographic reconstruction accuracy, and it is shown how the accuracy may guide the selection of imaging conditions for particular use cases.

Abstract:
During emergencies, emotions greatly affect human behaviour. For more realistic multi-agent systems in simulations of emergency evacuations, it is important to incorporate emotions and their effects on the agents. In few words, emotional contagion is a process in which a person or group influences the emotions or behavior of another person or group through the conscious or unconscious induction of emotion states and behavioral attitudes. In this study, we simulate an emergency situation in an open square area with three exits considering Adults and Children agents with different behavior. Also, Security agents are considered in order to guide Adults and Children for finding the exits and be calm. Six levels of emotion levels are considered for each agent in different scenarios and situations. The agent-based simulated model initialize with the random scattering of agent populations and then when an alarm occurs, each agent react to the situation based on its and neighbors current circumstances. The main goal of each agent is firstly to find the exit, and then help other agents to find their ways. Numbers of exited agents along with their emotion levels and damaged agents are compared in different scenarios with different initialization in order to evaluate the achieved results of the simulated model. NetLogo 5.2 is used as the multi-agent simulation framework with R language as the developing language.

Abstract:
As acoustic decoys can simulate the scale of the target through orderly control of the echo delay, simulated acoustic decoys have scale characteristics similar to those of the scaled target. Consequently, simulated acoustic decoys make it difficult for active acoustic homing torpedoes to recognize acoustic decoys through traditional echo broadening or apparent angle. This will lead to a decrease in the anti-interference capability of torpedoes. In combat, acoustic decoys deceive torpedoes and deviate from the tracking course so that torpedoes cannot find the real target, or waste the range, eventually failing to strike the target and failing in combat. The accurate underwater target scale recognition of active acoustic homing torpedoes is considered a difficult technique. In this paper, we propose a target recognition method based on the correlation between target echo broadening and apparent angle. This specific simulation example shows that conventional target scale recognition methods cannot distinguish between suspended and homing acoustic decoys with virtual scale. By contrast, the target scale recognition method proposed in this paper can accurately distinguish between suspended and homing acoustic decoys with virtual scale at close range, under non-positive transverse port angle conditions. This method improves the anti-interference capability of torpedoes. In addition, it can improve the accuracy of active sonar recognition scale targets of ships, which guide active sonar target recognition.

Abstract:
The proper evaluation of cancer chemotherapy orders is necessary for patients to receive safe and effective treatment. The chemotherapy treatment setting is evolving resulting in hospital pharmacists without extensive oncology training or experience now being responsible for evaluation of chemotherapy orders. The primary objective was to create a step-by-step chemotherapy order evaluation guide with a detailed explanation for each step. The secondary objective was to evaluate non-oncology trained pharmacists' ability to accurately review simulated chemotherapy orders post-education using the guide. A two-page chemotherapy order evaluation guide was created based on an accepted method of chemotherapy order review consisting of the following eight steps: regimen verification, clinical trial protocol verification, body surface area calculation, dose calculation, laboratory values, emesis prophylaxis, adjunctive or supportive care measures, and pharmacy labels. A literature search was performed for each step. A detailed explanation for each step was written as a separate component from the guide to encompass the literature search information and current guidelines in a more comprehensive manner. Non-oncology trained community hospital pharmacists were educated on use of the guide for approximately 30 min. The guide was evaluated using timed simulated chemotherapy orders pre- and post-education consisting of a general chemotherapy order and a carboplatin dosing order. Nineteen pharmacists were tested with simulated chemotherapy orders. A significant difference was detected between the pre- and post-education for both the general chemotherapy (p = 0.00032) order and carboplatin dosing order (p = 0.031).

Full text
Abstract:
In order to simulate the under control self-propelled swimming of bionic fishes, a coupling method of hydrodynamics/kinematics/motion-control is presented in this paper. The Navier-Stokes equations in the arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian framework are solved in parallel based on the computational domain decomposition to simulate the unsteady flow field efficiently. The flow dynamics is coupled with the fish dynamics in an implicit way by a dual-time stepping approach. In order to discretize the computational domain during a wide range maneuver, an overset grid approach with a parallel implicit hole-cutting technique is adopted and coupled with morphing hybrid grids around the undulation body. The motion control of the fish swimming is realized by a deep reinforcement learning algorithm, which makes the fish model choose proper undulation manner according to a specific purpose. By adding random disturbances in the training process of fish swimming along a straight line, a simplified two-dimensional fish model obtains the ability to swim along a specific trajectory. Then in subsequent tests, the two-dimensional fish model is able to swim along more complex curves with obstacles. Finally, the starting process of a three-dimensional tuna-like model is simulated preliminarily to validate the ability of the coupling method for three-dimensional complex configurations. The numerical results demonstrate that this study could be used to explore the swimming mechanism of fishes in complex environments and to guide how robotic fishes can be controlled to accomplish their tasks.

Abstract:
Forest landscape models (FLMs) are an important tool for assessing the long-term cumulative effects of harvest over large spatial extents. However, they have not been commonly used to guide forest management planning and on-the-ground operations. This is largely because FLMs track relatively simplistic vegetation information such as age cohort presence/absence, forest type, and biomass that are incompatible with tree density and size on which most harvest prescriptions are based. We describe and demonstrate the newly developed harvest module of the LANDIS PRO FLM, which tracks density, size, basal area, and stocking by species age cohorts for each site (cell). With this quantitative information, the module can simulate basal area controlled harvest, stocking-level controlled harvest, and group selection harvest. Through user-specified harvest year (frequency), stand ranking, and species and age preference, the new module can simulate a wide variety of harvest prescriptions such as thinning from above and below, shelterwood, clear-cutting, and group selection. We applied the LANDIS PRO harvest module to a large (17 000 km2) central hardwood forest landscape in Missouri. The simulated harvest prescriptions produced realistic stand-scale results when plotted on Gingrich stocking charts. The harvest module improves on previous versions by allowing partial treatment of individual age-classes within a cell and reporting results in metrics commonly used in stand-scale silviculture. It provides a closer link between landscape-scale simulation methods and stand-scale management.

Abstract:
Spillage of large amounts of Denser Nonaqueous Phase Liquids (DNAPLs) had resulted in serious pollution of groundwater resources throughout the world; a large number of studies had demonstrated surfactant-enhanced remediation is a more effective approach to remediate DNAPLs contaminations. In this paper, the remediation optimization process was carried out in three steps. Firstly, a water-oil-surfactant simulation model had been firstly established to simulate a surfactant enhanced aquifer remediation process. The Kriging surrogate model had been developed to get a similar input–output relationship with simulation model. In the final, a nonlinear optimization model was formulated for the minimum cost, and Kriging surrogate model had been embedded into the optimization model as a constrained condition. What is more, simulated annealing method was used to solve the optimization model and give the optimal Surfactant-Enhanced Aquifer Remediation strategy. The results showed Kriging surrogate model had reduced computational burden and make the optimization model easy to solve, and the optimal strategies gave an effective guide to contaminants remediation process.

Abstract:
In this study, we developed a method for coordinating and optimizing the train connection plans of different lines under the conditions of urban rail transit (URT) network operation. The method allows trains of different lines to form good connections at transfer stations, which can shorten the waiting time of passengers for transfers and reduce passenger retention. A mathematical model was developed to simulate the interaction between passengers and trains. Two optimization models were developed for the train connection plan of network transfer stations based on different optimization objectives during peak and off-peak hours. Subsequently, a corresponding solution method based on a genetic algorithm and simulation was designed. Finally, the Suzhou URT network was used as a case study, and the passenger flow of the transfer station was simulated and calculated using relevant automatic fare collection (AFC) data. The results indicated that the average waiting time and the number of passengers stranded were reduced using the proposed method. The calculation example demonstrated the effectiveness of the model and algorithm, which can guide the coordinated preparation of a network train connection plan.

Guide ways of ultra-precision machine tools always have sufficient stiffness and guiding precision. But guide way rails deformation caused by oil film pressure and slider offset lead to oil film clearance change which affects static stiffness and guiding precision. An inside-slider hydrostatic guide way is designed, and its static characteristics are analyzed. As a result, the effect of slider offset on stiffness and guiding precisions is obtained. A FE model of guide way is established. An elastomer of virtual material properties is used to simulate oil film, so that the relationship between oil film clearance and pressure can be represented in a certain range. Static stiffness and guiding precision are obtained considering deformation of rails.
