Effect of Fast Freeze-Thaw Cycles on Mechanical Properties of Ordinary-Air-Entrained Concrete by Huai-shuai Shang, Wei-qun Cao, Bin Wang

“…In this study, ordinary-air-entrained (O-A-E) concrete was produced in a laboratory environment; the compressive strength, cubic compressive strength of C50, C40, C30, C25, and C20 ordinary-air-entrained concrete, tensile strength, and cleavage strength of C30 ordinary-air-entrained concrete were measured after fast freeze-thaw cycles. The effects of fast freeze-thaw cycles on the mechanical properties (compressive strength and cleavage strength) of ordinary-air-entrained concrete materials are investigated on the basis of the experimental results. …”

Fast Tensor-Based Joint Estimation for Time Delay and Angle of Arrival in OFDM System by Jinzhi Du, Weijia Cui, Bin Ba, Chunxiao Jian, Haiyun Xu

“…Nowadays, the joint estimation of time delay (TD) and angle of arrival (AOA) using conventional vector structure suffers from the considerable complexity of multidimensional spectrum search. Therefore, a fast estimation method using orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) technology and uniform planar array (UPA) is proposed in this paper, which adopts low-complexity tensor-based operations and spatial-frequency features to reconfigure the channel frequency response. …”

A Fast and Efficient Markov Chain Monte Carlo Method for Market Microstructure Model by Sun Yapeng, Peng Hui, Xie Wenbiao

“…The estimation of the model is difficult, since the unobservable surplus demand is a time-varying stochastic variable in the return equation, and the market liquidity arises both in the mean term and in the variance term of the return equation in the MM model. A fast and efficient Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) approach based on an efficient simulation smoother algorithm and an acceptance-rejection Metropolis–Hastings algorithm is designed to estimate the non-linear MM model. …”
