Abstract:

Different from the output–input representation-based identification methods of two-block Hammerstein systems, this paper concerns a separate block-based parameter estimation method for each block of a two-block Hammerstein CARMA system, without combining the parameters of two parts together. The idea is to consider each block as a subsystem and to estimate the parameters of the nonlinear block and the linear block separately (interactively), by using two least-squares algorithms in one recursive step. The internal variable between the two blocks (the output of the nonlinear block, and also the input of the linear block) is replaced by different estimates: when estimating the parameters of the nonlinear part, the internal variable between the two blocks is computed by the linear function; when estimating the parameters of the linear part, the internal variable is computed by the nonlinear function. The proposed parameter estimation method possesses property of the higher computational efficiency compared with the previous over-parametrization method in which many redundant parameters need to be computed. The simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

Abstract:

In this paper, a novel modeling and parameter learning method for the Hammerstein–Wiener model with disturbance is proposed, and the Hammerstein–Wiener model is implemented to approximate complex nonlinear industrial processes. The proposed Hammerstein–Wiener model has two static nonlinear blocks represented by two independent neuro-fuzzy models that surround a dynamic linear block described by the finite impulse response model. The parameter learning method of the Hammerstein–Wiener model with disturbance can be summarized in the following three steps: First, the designed input signals are implemented to completely separate the parameter learning problem of output nonlinear block, linear block, and input nonlinear block. Meanwhile, the static output nonlinear block parameters can be learned based on input and output data of two sets of separable signals with different sizes. Second is to determine the dynamic linear block parameter using correlation analysis algorithm using one set of separable signal; thus, the process disturbance can be compensated by the calculation of correlation function. The final one is to achieve unbiased estimation of the static input nonlinear block parameters using least squares method according to the input–output data of random signal. Furthermore, with the parameter learning method, the proposed model can achieve less computation complexity and good robustness. The simulation results of two cases are provided to demonstrate the advantage of the proposed modeling and parameter learning method.

Abstract:

A fundamental assumption in computerized adaptive testing is that item parameters are invariant with respect to context—items surrounding the administered item. This assumption, however, may not hold in forced-choice (FC) assessments, where explicit comparisons are made between items included in the same block. We empirically examined the influence of context on item parameters by comparing parameter estimates from two FC instruments. The first instrument was composed of blocks of three items, whereas in the second, the context was manipulated by adding one item to each block, resulting in blocks of four. The item parameter estimates were highly similar. However, a small number of significant deviations were observed, confirming the importance of context when designing adaptive FC assessments. Two patterns of such deviations were identified, and methods to reduce their occurrences in an FC computerized adaptive testing setting were proposed. It was shown that with a small proportion of violations of the parameter invariance assumption, score estimation remained stable.

Abstract:

In order to better study the corrosion of concrete in saline-alkali area, the model tests of concrete and reinforced concrete with different ions and different ion concentrations were constructed. Taking the test blocks mixed with water as the control group, the resistance and polarizability of the test block during the maintenance period were measured by rock specimen tester and rock specimen test frame. The one-way variance analysis of the measured values of each test block was carried out by spss software, investigating the difference of electrical parameters of each concrete. The results show that there is significant difference in the resistance between the clear water concrete test block and the 3% sodium sulfate concrete test block at the level of significance ≤ 0.05. For reinforced concrete test blocks, the resistivity difference between water test block and 3% sodium sulfate test block and 6% sodium sulfate test block is not significant, and the resistivity difference between water test block and 15% sodium sulfate test block and 3% sodium chloride test block is significant. No matter concrete or reinforced concrete, the polarizability of test blocks mixed with water and test blocks mixed with each solution is significantly different. Therefore, the polarizability parameters can be used to distinguish whether the concrete is corroded by salt and alkali. It is feasible to use polarizability parameter to detect concrete erosion by salt and alkali.

Abstract:

Pixel Purity Index (PPI) has been widely used for endmember extraction. Recently, an approach using blocks of skewers was proposed by Theiler et al., called blocks of skewers (BOS) method, to improve computation of the PPI. It utilizes a block of skewers to reduce number of calculations of dot products operated by the PPI on each skewers with all data sample vectors. Unfortunately, the BOS method also suffers from the same drawbacks that the PPI does in terms of several parameters which are needed to be determined a priori. Besides, it also has an additional parameter, block size, B needed to be determined where no guideline is provided of how to select this parameter. In this paper, the BOS method is also investigated. Most importantly, a new pyramid-based block design for the BOS method is also introduced as opposed to the cube-based block designed used by Theiler et al.'s BOS. One major advantage of our proposed pyramid-based BOS over Theiler et al.'s cube-design BOS is the hardware design for Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) implementation.

Abstract:

Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (AAC) is a Lightweight, Load-bearing, High-insulating, Durable building product, which is produced in a wide range of sizes and strengths. AAC Blocks is lightweight and when compared to the red bricks, AAC blocks are three times lighter. AAC block is rapidly developing in Vietnam. The block has more advantages such as precast, and easy installation. AAC is produced from the common materials: lime, sand, cement and water, and a small amount of rising agent. After mixing and molding, it is then autoclaved under heat and pressure to create its unique properties. Then, the AAC block will be cut into block brick by steel wire. When cutting the ACC block, the block brick surface must be smooth so that it is unnecessary to mortar. Furthermore, the roughness of the surface must be smaller than 0.1mm to paint the wall easily. The block dimension also need high precision so that the wall will be straight when blocks are superposed. However, in this paper, the roughness of the block surface will be only researched because the roughness will decide the cost, and the dimension decide the estheticism of wall. The block is made by using steel wires to cut big AAC blocks into small blocks. Effects of processing parameters on the performance of the steel wire sawing processes are wire speed, feed rate and tension. Each parameter will affect surface quality with different effects. In addition, these parameters affect each other, which causes scratches on the AAC surface. Experiments will be made to measure the height of roughness with the change of wire speed, feed rate and tension. The best parameters will be found, which helps the AAC manufacturer to obtain the higher quality.

Abstract:

With the increasing of depth and complexity of the convolutional neural network, parameter dimensionality and volume of computing have greatly restricted its applications. Based on the SqueezeNet network structure, this study introduces a block convolution and uses channel shuffle between blocks to alleviate the information jam. The method is aimed at reducing the dimensionality of parameters of in an original network structure and improving the efficiency of network operation. The verification performance of the ORL dataset shows that the classification accuracy and convergence efficiency are not reduced or even slightly improved when the network parameters are reduced, which supports the validity of block convolution in structure lightweight. Moreover, using a classic CIFAR-10 dataset, this network decreases parameter dimensionality while accelerating computational processing, with excellent convergence stability and efficiency when the network accuracy is only reduced by 1.3%.

Abstract:

Currently, various calibration methods including manual and automatic ways have been used to calibrate rainfall-runoff models. This study used a genetic algorithm(GA) to accurately reflect the SWMM output of each parameter set for the parameter optimization and to reduce the possibility of local optimum solution. To integrate the SWMM and GA, subroutines in the SWMM source code were modified. A developed program was applied to the Jangcheon catchment in Youngrang Lake watershed. Parameters that sensitively affected the runoff flow and water quality calculation were determined using the GA. For runoff flow calculation, eight parameters in the runoff block and one parameter in the transport block were calibrated. Four parameters in the runoff block were also calibrated for the water quality calculation. The validated SWMM then estimated the runoff pollutant loads flowing into Youngrang Lake discharged from the Jangcheon catchment.

Abstract:

The goal of this project was to develop a non-toxic amphiphilic diblock copolymer nanoparticulate drug delivery system that will solubilize paclitaxel (PTX) and retain the drug in plasma. Methoxy poly(ethylene glycol)-block-poly(ε-caprolactone) (MePEG-b-PCL) diblock copolymers loaded with PTX were characterized and their physicochemical properties were correlated with their performance as nanoparticulate drug delivery systems. A series of MePEG-b-PCL was synthesized with PCL blocks ranging from 2-104 repeat units and MePEG blocks of 17, 44 or 114 repeat units. All copolymers were water soluble and formed micelles except MePEG₁₁₄-b-PCL₁₀₄, which was water insoluble and formed nanospheres. Investigation of the effects of block length on the physicochemical properties of the nanoparticles was used to select appropriate copolymers for development as PTX nanoparticles. The critical micelle concentration, pyrene partition coefficient and diameter of nanoparticles were found to be dependent on the PCL block length. Copolymers based on a MePEG molecular weight of 750 g/mol were found to have temperature dependent phase behavior. Relationships between the concentration of micellized drug and the compatibility between the drug and core-forming block, as determined by the Flory-Huggins interaction parameter, and PCL block length were developed. Increases in the compatibility between PCL and the drug, as well as longer PCL block lengths resulted in increased drug solubilization. The physicochemical properties and drug delivery performance characteristics of MePEG₁₁₄-b-PCL₁₉ micelles and MePEG₁₁₄-b-PCL₁₀₄ nanospheres were compared. Nanospheres were larger, had a more viscous core, solubilized more PTX and released it slower, compared to micelles. No difference was seen in the hemocompatibility of the nanoparticles as assessed by plasma coagulation time and erythrocyte hemolysis. Micellar PTX had an in vitro plasma distribution similar to free drug. The majority of micellar PTX associated with the lipoprotein deficient plasma fraction (LPDP). In contrast, nanospheres were capable of retaining more of the encapsulated drug with significantly less PTX partitioning into the LPDP fraction. In conclusion, although both micelles and nanospheres were capable of solubilizing PTX and were hemocompatible, PTX nanospheres may offer the advantage of prolonged blood circulation, based on the in vitro plasma distribution data, which showed that nanospheres retained PTX more effectively.

Abstract:

Millions of lives have been lost over the years as a result of the effects of earthquakes. One of these devastating effects is slope failure, more commonly known as landslide. Over the years, seismologists and engineers have teamed up to better record data during an earthquake. As technology has advanced, the data obtained have become more refined, allowing engineers to use the data in their efforts to estimate earthquakes where they have not yet occurred. Several methods have been proposed over time to utilize the earthquake data and estimate slope displacements. A pioneer in the development of methods to estimate slope displacements, Nathan Newmark, proposed what is now called the Newmark sliding block method. This method explained in very simple ways how a mass, in this case a rigid block, would slide over an incline given that the acceleration of the block surpassed the frictional resistance created between the bottom of the block and the surface of the incline. Because many of the assumptions from this method were criticized by scientists over time, modified Newmark sliding block methods were proposed. As the original and modified Newmark sliding block methods were introduced, the need to account for the uncertainty in the way soil would behave under earthquake loading became a big challenge. Deterministic and probabilistic methods have been used to incorporate parameters that would account for some of the uncertainty in the analysis. In an attempt to use a probabilistic approach in understanding how slopes might fail, the Pacific Earthquake Engineering Research Center proposed a performance-based earthquake engineering framework that would allow decision-makers to use probabilistically generated information to make decisions based on acceptable risk. Previous researchers applied this framework to simplified Newmark sliding block models, but the approach is difficult for engineers to implement in practice because of the numerous probability calculations that are required. The work presented in this thesis provides a solution to the implementation of the performance-based approach by providing a simplified procedure for the performance-based determination of seismic slope displacements using the Rathje & Saygili (2009) and the Bray and Travasarou (2007) simplified Newmark sliding block models. This document also includes hazard parameter maps, which are an important part of the simplified procedure, for five states in the United States. A validation of the method is provided, as well as a comparison of the simplified method against other commonly used approaches such as deterministic and pseudo-probabilistic.

Abstract:

Cette thèse porte sur la synthèse de copolymères à blocs (BCPs) à haut pouvoir de ségrégation pour des applications en nanolithographie. La voie de synthèse qui a été retenue est la polymérisation radicalaire contrôlée par les nitroxydes ou NMP. Parmi tous les copolymères à blocs synthétisés, nous avons choisi de nous intéresser plus particulièrement à l'association de blocs 'hydrophile' et 'hydrophobe' à squelettes polystyrène. Le bloc hydrophile poly(3,4-dihydroxystyrène) (PDHS) s'est montré très intéressant en association avec les blocs poly(4-tertbutylstyrène) (PtBS) et poly(4-triméthylsilylstyrène) (PTMSS) formant respectivement les copolymères à blocs PDHS-b-PtBS et PDHS-b-PTMSS. Ainsi des valeurs de χ très élevées ont pu être quantifiées de l'ordre de 0,7 par exemple pour le PDHS-b-PtBS. L'avantage du bloc PTMSS tient au fait qu'il a permis d'amplifier le phénomène de contraste en gravure. Le bloc PDHS a ensuite été remplacé par le poly(4-méthylétherglycérolstyrène) (PMGS) afin de faire varier notamment les caractéristiques thermiques et d'étudier leur effet sur l'auto-assemblage de copolymères PtBS-b-PMGS. Enfin, les capacités d'infiltration spécifique du bloc PDHS par un précurseur métallique ont mis en évidence la formation d'un masque dur et d'un réseau double oxyde pour respectivement le PDHS-b-PtBS et le PDHS-b-PTMSS
This thesis concerns the synthesis of block copolymers (BCPs) with high segregation power for nanolithography applications. The main synthesis patway that has been followed is the controlled radical polymerization by nitroxides or NMPs. Among all the synthesized block copolymers, we have chosen to focus on the association of 'hydrophilic' and 'hydrophobic' blocks with polystyrene backbones. The hydrophilic poly(3,4-dihydroxystyrene) (PDHS) block has proved to be very interesting in association with the poly(4-tertbutylstyrene) (PtBS) and poly(4-trimethylsilylstyrene) (PTMSS) blocks forming respectively the PDHS-b-PtBS and PDHS-b-PTMSS block copolymers. High χ values could thus be quantified in the range of 0.7 for PDHS-b-PtBS, for example. The main advantage of the PTMSS block is about the contrast amplification during etching. The PDHS block was then replaced by poly(4-methyletherglycerolstyrene) (PMGS) in order to vary, in particular, the thermo-mechanical features and to study in particular their effect on the self-assembly of PtBS-b-PMGS copolymers. Finally, the specific infiltration capacities of the PDHS block by a metallic precursor highlighted the formation of a hard mask and a double oxide network for PDHS-b-PtBS and PDHS-b-PTMSS respectively

In financial mathematics, asset prices for European options are often modeled according to the Black-Scholes-Merton (BSM) model, a stochastic differential equation (SDE) depending on unknown parameters. A derivation of the solution to this SDE is reviewed, resulting in a stochastic process called geometric Brownian motion (GBM) which depends on two unknown real parameters referred to as the drift and volatility. For additional insight, the BSM equation is expressed as a heat equation, which is a partial differential equation (PDE) with well-known properties. For American options, it is established that asset value can be characterized as the solution to an obstacle problem, which is an example of a free boundary PDE problem. One approach for estimating the parameters in the GBM solution to the BSM model can be based on the method of maximum likelihood. This approach is discussed and applied to a dataset involving the weekly closing prices for the Dow Jones Industrial Average between January 2012 and December 2012.

Abstract:

The stress-strain distribution in flexural compression has been at the forefront of investigation ever since the 20th century. The original formulation of the flexural stress-strain distribution and the subsequent development of the stress block parameters, were based on specimens with a 127 x 203 mm (4 x 8 in.) cross section. The design of reinforced concrete flexural and flexural compression members at the Ultimate Limit State is based on the equilibrium of forces and moments obtained by using these stress block parameters. The calculation procedure entails the determination of the neutral axis depth, which varies depending on the magnitude of the applied action and the section dimensions. If the load action is small, the internal bending moment can be equilibrated with a reduced neutral axis depth, however, current design models do not consider the influence of a reduction in neutral axis depth (specimen size) on the stress block parameters, possibly resulting in an underestimation of the flexural compression capacity. This study aimed to evaluate the influence of specimen size and compressive strength on the stress block parameters of concrete by testing twenty-seven plain concrete specimens in flexural compression. Nine specimens were tested for each specimen size (50 mm, 100 mm, and 200 mm), three for each of the cylinder target strengths of 40 MPa, 65 MPa, and 80 MPa. The stress block parameters, obtained from the stress-strain curves, were compared to the data obtained by previous researchers, and the influence of specimen size on the stress block parameters evaluated for the different concrete strengths. Along with the size effect in flexural compression, the size effect for cubes and cylinders were also evaluated, and the associated cylinder strength used to eliminate the size effect of the stress block parameters. A comparison of the error between the predicted Moment-Axial force (M-N) interaction diagram, obtained by using the BS 8110-1 (1997), SANS 0100-1 (2000), ACI-318 (2014), and EN 1992-1-1 (2004) codes, and the actual M-N interaction diagram, obtained from the experimental points, were made, and conclusions regarding their applicability for the design of concrete containing South African materials drawn. Lastly, the flexural stress-strain behaviour was modelled, and a comparison made between the calculated and actual stress block parameters.

Abstract:

This article discusses parameters influencing the size of motor-evoked potentials (MEPs) in normal and pathological conditions, and the methods of meaningful quantification of the MEPs. MEPs are widely used to study the physiology of corticospinal conduction in healthy subjects and in patients with diseases of the central nervous system. The characteristics of MEP size are, stimulus intensity, coil positioning, and facilitation. MEPs show variability in size and shape from one stimulus to the next, even if the stimulus parameters are kept constant. This article describes the triple stimulation technique (TST), which was developed to eliminate the effects of phase cancellation from the MEPs, to allow for a better quantification. Pathological conditions may modify the parameters discussed in the article and influence the size of the MEPs by lesions of motor neurons or of their axons, central conduction velocity slowing, or conduction block.

Abstract:

The book offers a new outlook on social, cultural and educational work with young people. It is the perspective of social pedagogy: a theoretical and practical perspective that has been developing in continental Europe over the last 150 years. Social pedagogy poses a way of acting that places young people at the center of socio-educational work, putting their decisions and actions into value. It aims to accompany them in their life process of personal construction within the framework of the community in which they live. The book is organized into three large blocks of chapters. The introduction aims to prepare readers for the social pedagogy approach to work with young people. It briefly outlines its current situation in the world and, relate it to the main professions in which it is embodied in different socio-cultural contexts: social pedagogy, social education, and social work. The first block presents the framework and socio-pedagogical, theoretical, and practical parameters in which work with young people takes place in Europe and Latin America. The second block of chapters deals with youth policies and the training and professionalization of educators and those who work with young people. The last block focuses on some socio-educational practices with young people that include youth justice, social inclusion process, youth participation in digital life or transition to adult life. The book is based on a wide perspective of young people from cultural diversity. All the contributions of this book are based on research and practical experiences.

Abstract:

The structural heterogeneity of polysynthetic languages is captured by a sublassification of allegedly polysynthetic languages according to their word-formational type (number of roots allowed in a verb form), namely, compositional, transitional, or affixal, and their internal organization (template vs. scope or both). Further parameters show correlations to these independent ones: the number of participants encoded on a verb, the imaginable evolutionary path via which the structure has come about, namely layering (“onion type”), internal expansion (“sandwich type”) or coalescence (“burdock type”), and the characteristic design of a complex verb form: Grammatical category accumulation (integration of non-obligatory, rather grammatical information); ping-pong recategorization (multiple verbalization and nominalization); productive in/excorporation; dependent-head synthesis; multiple packing (integration of rather lexical information); holophrasis (all wordforms being predicates—or particles); composite-stem layout (composite root-like morphemes, unitary concept); and building-block design (multiple classifer-like morphemes make up a wordform). The classification along these parameters reconciles conflicting approaches to polysynthesis.

Abstract:

Liaodong Bay is located at the northern part of the Bohai Sea. There are four blocks where oil and gas are found. In order to exploit these resources in these connected four blocks, extreme value statistics is used to estimate the storm-surge design parameters. Long-term series of storm surge are hindcast by numerical models. Using data from series of extreme storm surge caused by tropical cyclones in the Liaodong Bay, statistical analysis of extreme storm surge is carried out with Poisson-generalized extreme value distribution by considering the occurrence frequencies of tropical cyclones. The 100-year return storm surge is 195cm and the 50-year storm surge is 164cm. Both of them occur in Block 1. Due to the influence of topography of the total four blocks, the intensity trends of storm surges in Blocks 1, 2 and 3 are similar, whereas the intensity of storm surge in Block 4 is relatively small. These results are reference for the structural design in these blocks.

Abstract:

The phenotypic analysis of new candidate varieties at multiple locations could provide information on the stability of their genotypes. We evaluated the stability of 11 maize hybrid candidates in five districts in East Java Province, Indonesia. Maize hybrids with high yield potential and early maturity traits derived from a diallel cross were planted in a randomized complete block design with two checks (Srikandi Kuning and BISI-2) as a single factor with four replicates. The observed traits were grain yield per hectare and harvest age. The effects of environment, genotype, and genotype × environment interaction on yield were highly significant (P < 0.01). KTM-1, KTM-2, KTM-4, KTM-5, and KTM-6 showed higher average grain yield per hectare than the checks (Srikandi Kuning = 8.49 ton ha−1 and BISI-2 = 7.32 ton ha−1) at five different locations. The average harvest age of 11 candidates was less than 100 days. KTM-4 and KTM-5 had production yields that were higher than the average yield of all genotypes in all environments (Yi > 7.78 tons ha−1) and were considered stable on the basis of three stability parameters, i.e., Finlay–Wilkinson, Eberhart–Russell, and additive main effect multiplicative interaction (AMMI). KTM-2 had the highest yield among all tested genotypes (9.33 ton ha−1) and was considered as stable on the basis of AMMI but not on the basis of Finlay–Wilkinson and Eberhart–Russell. KTM-1 performed well only in Pamekasan, whereas KTM-6 performed well only in Sampang. Thus, these two genotypes could be targeted for these specific locations.
