Abstract This paper studies the influence of different factors on pedestrian head injury in vehicle-pedestrian collisions. PC-Crash software is used to construct simulation experiments under ten factors. The research shows that the injury to pedestrians in reverse impact is greater than that to pedestrians in forward impact. With the acceleration of vehicle speed, the HIC value of pedestrians will increase with the increase of the height of the front hood from the ground. When the vehicle speed is less than 40 km/h, the injury to pedestrians in a forward-leaning emergency posture is smaller, and the injury More >

Abstract Given the government subsidies for new energy vehicles, this study is conducted to study the closed-loop supply chain comprising individual manufacturers, individual retailers and individual third-party recyclers. In this paper, combine the reality of new energy vehicles with the relevant research of game theory, and establish an no government subsidy model (Model N), a government subsidized consumer model (Model C), a government subsidized manufacturer model (Model M), a government subsidized third party recycler model (Model T), and a government subsidized retailer model (Model R) for quantitative research. Then, numerical examples are used to simulate the More >

Abstract Nowadays, many payment service providers use the discounts and other marketing strategies to promote their products. This also raises the issue of people who deliberately take advantage of such promotions to reap financial benefits. These people are known as ‘scalper parties’ or ‘econnoisseurs’ which can constitute an underground industry. In this paper, we show how to use machine learning to assist in identifying abnormal scalper transactions. Moreover, we introduce the basic methods of Decision Tree and Boosting Tree, and show how these classification methods can be applied in the detection of abnormal transactions. In addition,… More >

Abstract Based on the research hypothesis in a fully competitive closed-loop supply chain for mixed recycling channels, different closed-loop supply chain pricing models are established for the government’s strategy of adopting different subsidies (consumers, retailers, manufacturers or third-party recyclers). In this work, we use game theory to establish a price formula, and identify the factors affecting the profit of five closed-loop supply chain members. Through solution verification, the sales channel pricing, the recycling channel pricing and the channel member profit change of the closed-loop supply chain under different subsidy objects are compared after changing only one More >

Abstract In this paper, according to the information classification algorithm in data mining, data in the network payment system of e-commerce is mined, forming an effective evaluation of the security of the network payment system. Firstly, the method of network security risk prediction is discussed. Secondly, according to the characteristics of network payment system, the system security index system is analyzed in detail, and the specific application process of the C4.5 Classification Algorithm in security evaluation is discussed. Finally, the data mining process is designed in detail and the corresponding code established. In this paper, data More >

Abstract With the growth of information technology and computer networks, there is a vital need for optimal design of distributed databases with the aim of performance improvement in terms of minimizing the round-trip response time and query transmission and processing costs. To address this issue, new fragmentation, data allocation, and replication techniques are required. In this paper, we propose enhanced vertical fragmentation, allocation, and replication schemes to improve the performance of distributed database systems. The proposed fragmentation scheme clusters highly-bonded attributes (i.e., normally accessed together) into a single fragment in order to minimize the query processing More >

Abstract Color is one of the primary elements of artistic expression. Its design and collocation play a very important role in image processing. While the number of people using the Internet is increasing, more attention is being paid to the user’s experience including the color design and matching of the Internet web interface, in order to reach the color design of the web interface with image processing as the core. This thesis firstly discusses the importance of web interface color design and matching in image processing from the image processing appeal of the web interface and More >

Abstract Undoubtedly, noise has become a major hazardous issue in today’s industrial world, with a lot of people suffering from exposure to excessive noise in their work environments. This study was conducted to weigh and prioritize noise control methods in an Iranian tire manufacturing complex in Iran. The Delphi method and the Technique for Order Preference by Similarity and an Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) were utilized for this purpose. This cross-sectional, descriptive study was conducted in the baking hall of an Iranian tire manufacturing factory in 2016. To weigh and prioritize noise control methods, Analytic Hierarchy Process… More >

Abstract This study determines the natural frequencies of the lock gate structure, considering the coupled effect of reservoir fluid on one side using the finite element method (FEM). The gate is assumed to be a uniformly thick plate, and its material is isotropic, homogeneous, and elastic. The reservoir fluid is assumed to be inviscid and incompressible in an irrotational flow field. The length of the reservoir domain is truncated using the far boundary condition by adopting the Fourier series expansion theory. Two different assumptions on the free surface, i.e., undisturbed and linearized, are considered in the… More >

Abstract Exposure to high level of noise, may cause the permanent cochlear synaptic degeneration. In present study, a model of noise induced cochlear synaptopathy was established and the electrophysiological and histological metrics for its assessment was designed. 6 guinea pigs were subjected to a synaptopathic noise (octave band of 4 kHz at 104 dB SPL, for 2-h). The amplitude growth curve of Auditory Brainstem Response (ABR) wave-I and wave-III latency shift in presence of noise were calculated. These indexes were considered in pre-exposure, 1 day post exposure (1DPE), 1 week post exposure (1WPE) and 1 month… More >
