Control System of Fire Rescue Robot for High-Rise Building Design by Junfang Yu

“…Robot fire detection method involves obtaining the video image of the fire detection area through a high-definition camera, performing image preprocessing on the current frame image of the video in the robot operating system to obtain the image; and performing the flame area segmentation based on the Ohta color space and the Otsu threshold segmentation algorithm on the image, to obtain the segmented image; through the interframe difference method, the preprocessed image of the previous frame is subtracted from the current frame image and the moving area of the image is segmented to obtain the segmented image; the obtained segmented image is combined with the segmented image in the robot operating system and images are intersected to obtain a segmented image with the characteristics of flame motion; based on other characteristics of the flame, flame recognition is performed on the area in the segmented image. …”

Defects and Improvement of Predicting Mine Water Inflow by Virtual Large Diameter Well Method by Zhimin Xu, Tianci Chen, Jianfeng Li, Yajun Sun, Chenghang Zhang, Ge Chen, Yating Gao, Ye He

“…Then, based on the theory of steady flow and combined with the dynamic change process of goaf area and depression cone of water table during mining activities, this paper proposes an improved method and puts forward a concept of dynamic virtual large diameter well (DVLDWM) and establishes a theoretical model of the central position and influence radius of the “mining large diameter well” moving forward. The first (periodic) caving step is taken as the calculation unit and generalized as the “dynamic large diameter well,” which is used to calculate the dynamic water inflow in the process of mine advancing. …”

Research on the Influence of Groundwater in Coastal Areas on the Stress and Deformation Characteristics of Integrated Pipe Gallery by Yuanyuan Tian, Qingbiao Wang, Zhongjing Hu, Shuo Yang, Chuanxiong Peng, Xu Zhang, Zhongying Li, Xugang Wang

“…Under the action of the buoyancy force, the bottom plate moves upward, and the surface displacement rises continuously with the rise of the groundwater level. (4) When the groundwater depth is the same, the analysis of the test results and the numerical simulation calculation results are basically consistent, which further verifies the validity of the numerical simulation calculation and has reference value. (5) The engineering example shows that in order to reduce the service life of the integrated pipe gallery, the impact of groundwater on the integrated pipe gallery cannot be ignored.…”

Meteorological Analysis of Floods in Ghana by S. O. Ansah, M. A. Ahiataku, C. K. Yorke, F. Otu-Larbi, Bashiru Yahaya, P. N. L. Lamptey, M. Tanu

“…We applied the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model to investigate and examine the meteorological dynamics, which resulted in the extreme rainfall and floods that caused 14 deaths, 34076 people being displaced with damaged properties, and economic loss estimated at $168,289 for the two cities according to the National Disaster Management Organization (NADMO). The slow-moving thunderstorms lasted for about 8 hours due to the weak African Easterly Wave (AEW) and Tropical Easterly Jet (TEJ). …”

Influences of a Quasi-stationary Front on Particulate Matter in the Low-latitude Plateau Region in China by Wenxuan Fan, Jian Wu, Xiaopeng Li, Fangyuan Yang, Bing Chen, Jun Guo

“…Furthermore, we investigated all of the KMQSF synoptic weather that occurred from 2014 till 2019 and categorized it into nine types, which produced different pollution patterns. When the KMQSF moved westward from the center of the LoLaP, the easterly wind transported PM to the western part of the region, which led to an increase in the mean daily PM10 and PM2.5 concentrations in Kunming, a capital city in that area; simultaneously, however, the PM10 and PM2.5 levels remained high in Guiyang, a capital city in the eastern part of the LoLaP. …”
