Study on the Variation Law of Static Transmission Error for Cylindrical Gear by Chang Lehao, Liu Geng, He Zhaoxia

“…For a gear pair with tooth surface errors,the mesh stiffness,the composite mesh error and the actual contact length in a mesh cycle are similar to each other.The transmission error produced by gear errors is the crucial factor in light loading,while the tooth deformation becomes dominating in heavy loading. The conclusion can provide some references for the design of transmission error and vibration reduction of gear systems.…”

Abelian instantons and monopole scattering by Csaba Csáki, Rotem Ovadia, Ofri Telem, John Terning, Shimon Yankielowicz

“…This is the low-energy effective field theory for fermions interacting with a ’t Hooft-Polyakov monopole, in the limit where the monopole is infinitely heavy (hence pointlike) and static. This theory, whose non-topological sectors were studied by Rubakov and Callan, has a far richer structure than previously explored. …”

Speech Technology Application of “FEDE” Platform for Flood Control by QIU Wenjian, TIAN Maochun, YANG Yue, FAN Guangwei, HUANG Lu

“…There are currently cumbersome and inefficient interaction methods in the “FEDE” system for flood control in water conservancy projects, heavy reliance on the experience of actual operators, and insufficient intelligent application.To this end, this paper carries out research on the application of voice technology to the “FEDE” platform for flood control.Firstly, an open service system that integrates intelligent speech recognition allows for real-time interaction of audio data and recognition results by standardized service interfaces.Then, this paper sorts out the business processes in the “FEDE” for flood prevention in water conservancy projects, and summarizes and refines three types of practical application scenarios.Finally, relevant water conservancy vocabulary and sentence structures are organized and compiled, and a speech data corpus and scenario skill library are built to serve practical application scenarios.The applications of the “FEDE” platform for flood control in Datengxia indicate that this paper offers a more comprehensive channel for information acquisition, and improves the intelligent interaction of the system and work efficiency of users, providing technical service support for water conservancy engineering management.…”

Research on safety supervision data sharing of railway construction projects based on edge computing by Liang YANG, Chunhui PIAO, Yuhong LIU, Meimei JI

“…Information security monitoring system is widely used in railway construction projects,but the existing safety supervision model has problems such as high server load,heavy network bandwidth pressure,monitoring data can’t be effectively shared,key monitoring data may be tampered,and security accident responsibility is difficult to determine.A credible sharing model of safety supervision data for railway construction projects based on edge computing was proposed.On one hand,the construction of a safety monitoring edge computing framework for construction projects was constructed,and the data processing flow of edge nodes was described; on the other hand,a trusted data sharing framework based on blockchain was established,and a safety supervision data sharing process was designed and trusted sharing data was implemented through smart contracts.The proposed solution combined with edge computing and blockchain technology,which not only could strengthen the safety supervision of railway construction projects by industry authorities,but also provide new opportunities for stakeholders to share safety monitoring data in real time.…”
