Abstract In view of the characteristics of the numerical simulation results of the nuclear reactor core, including the regular structures, multiple geometry duplications, large-scale grids, and the demand for refined expression of calculation results, a mesh generation method based on Delaunay triangulation was used to solve the restructuring and visualizing problem of core three-dimensional (3D) data fields. In this work, data processing and visualization of the three-dimensional refined calculation of the core were accomplished, using the triangular mesh model, hash matching algorithm, 3D visualization technology, etc. Descriptions are also given for key issues such as Delaunay triangular mesh construction, the geometric… More >

Abstract During the displacement of water plugging with binary flooding in internally heterogeneous reservoirs, it is essential to understand the distributions of remaining oil as well as the oil displacement mechanisms at different stages. In this study, two types of internally heterogeneous systems, i.e., vertical and horizontal wells are investigated experimentally through a microscopic approach. The results show that plugging agent types have a greater impact on oil recovery than well types, and foam injection can enhance oil recovery more effectively than gel injection. Additionally, the injection sequence of plugging agents significantly affects oil displacement efficiency. Injecting gel after foam is… More >

Abstract Reducing drag during take-off and nominal (cruise) conditions is a problem of fundamental importance in aeronautical engineering. Existing studies have demonstrated that v-shaped symmetrical riblets can effectively be used for turbulence control, with those with dimensionless depth h⁺ = 15 and dimensionless width s⁺ = 15 having the best drag reduction effect. In the present study, experimental tests have been conducted considering two models of the same size, one with smooth surface, the other with v-shaped riblets of the h⁺ = 15 and s⁺ = 15 type. The results show that for an angle of attack in the 8°~20° range… More >

Abstract The meridian theory, as an essential part of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) fundamentals, provides an explanation of the spatial and functional relationship between the superficial part and the internal organs based on empiric observations. Cutaneous regions which are the body superficies on which the functions of the meridians are reflected, and the sites where the qi of the collateral’s spreads, play an important role in TCM clinical diagnosis and treatment of skin diseases. The survey of the literature on anatomical site, pathology in patients with skin disease, particularly in TCM perspective, clearly indicates that a better cutaneous region model and… More >

Abstract Integrin molecules are transmembrane αβ heterodimers involved in cell adhesion, trafficking, and signaling. Upon activation, integrins undergo dynamic conformational changes that regulate their affinity to ligands. The physiological functions and activation mechanisms of integrins have been heavily discussed in previous studies and reviews, but the fluorescence imaging techniques –which are powerful tools for biological studies– have not. Here we review the fluorescence labeling methods, imaging techniques, as well as Förster resonance energy transfer assays used to study integrin expression, localization, activation, and functions.

Abstract The interactive educational digital resources (IEDRs) are more and more prevalent in all levels of education. With the proliferation of the Internet, more and more IEDRs are being shared online. How to aid users to explore helpful resources effectively and efficiently has become a challenge. The static preview of resources that current research has mainly focused on is ineffective for the IEDRs, because of the unique feature of the IEDRs that the knowledge is crucial for the users’ comprehension and is hidden in the process of interaction. To unfold the hidden crucial knowledge and ensure a users’ fast acquisition, we… More >

Abstract With the rapid development of the Internet, many enterprises have launched their network platforms. When users browse, search, and click the products of these platforms, most platforms will keep records of these network behaviors, these records are often heterogeneous, and it is called log data. To effectively to analyze and manage these heterogeneous log data, so that enterprises can grasp the behavior characteristics of their platform users in time, to realize targeted recommendation of users, increase the sales volume of enterprises’ products, and accelerate the development of enterprises. Firstly, we follow the process of big data collection, storage, analysis, and… More >

Abstract In the era of big data, the general public is more likely to access big data, but they wouldn’t like to analyze the data. Therefore, the traditional data visualization with certain professionalism is not easy to be accepted by the general public living in the fast pace. Under this background, a new general visualization method for dynamic time series data emerges as the times require. Time series data visualization organizes abstract and hard-to-understand data into a form that is easily understood by the public. This method integrates data visualization into short videos, which is more in line with the way… More >

Abstract Water resources are one of the basic resources for human survival, and water protection has been becoming a major problem for countries around the world. However, most of the traditional water quality monitoring research work is still concerned with the collection of water quality indicators, and ignored the analysis of water quality monitoring data and its value. In this paper, by adopting Laravel and AdminTE framework, we introduced how to design and implement a water quality data visualization platform based on Baidu ECharts. Through the deployed water quality sensor, the collected water quality indicator data is transmitted to the big… More >
