IAPCP: An Effective Cross-Project Defect Prediction Model via Intra-Domain Alignment and Programming-Based Distribution Adaptation by Nana Zhang, Kun Zhu, Dandan Zhu

“…Cross-project defect prediction (CPDP) aims to identify defect-prone software instances in one project (target) using historical data collected from other software projects (source), which can help maintainers allocate limited testing resources reasonably. Unfortunately, the feature distribution discrepancy between the source and target projects makes it challenging to transfer the matching feature representation and severely hinders CPDP performance. …”

A Semi-analytical Calculation Method for Time-varying Meshing Stiffness and Transmission Error of Spiral Bevel Gear by Liao Ping, Wei Jing, Zhang Aiqiang, Zhang Weiqing

“…The traditional method of calculating time-varying meshing stiffness of spiral bevel gears mostly adopted finite element static analysis method, but it needed to be calculated many times, also the single tooth meshing stiffness calculated by the mean value of the node elastic deformation has a large error. For this reason, a calculation method for time-varying meshing stiffness of spiral bevel gear is improved. …”

Study on Hydraulic Fracture Propagation of Strong Heterogeneous Shale Based on Stress‐Seepage Damage Coupling Model by Wei Liu, Lei Xiao, Yunbin Ke, Yang Zhi, Kangxing Dong

“…Additionally, there is a common phenomenon where the propagation of hydraulic fracture heights is limited in the hydraulic fracturing process of strongly heterogeneous shale reservoirs. To clarify the reasons for the limited height propagation of hydraulic fractures in strongly heterogeneous shale reservoirs, numerical simulation methods were used to study the propagation patterns of hydraulic fractures in shale reservoirs under different levels of anisotropy, flow rate, viscosity, and stress differences. …”
