To expand the application of bamboo as a building material, a new type of box section composite column that combined bamboo and steel was considered in this paper. The creep characteristics of eight bamboo-steel composite columns with different parameters were tested to evaluate the effects of load level, section size and interface type under long-term loading. Then, the deformation development of the composite column under long-term loading was observed and analyzed. In addition, the creep-time relationship curve and the creep coefficient were created. Furthermore, the creep model of the composite column was proposed based on the relationship between the creep of the composite column and the creep of bamboo, and the calculated value of creep was compared with the experimental value. The experimental results showed that the creep development of the composite column was fast at first, and then became stable after about 90 days. The creep characteristics were mainly affected by long-term load level and section size. The creep coefficient was between 0.160 and 0.190. Moreover, the creep model proposed in this paper was applicable to predict the creep development of bamboo-steel composite columns. The calculation results were in good agreement with the experimental results.

Paragraph-based datasets are hard to analyze by a simple RNN, because a long sequence always contains lengthy problems of long-term dependencies. In this work, we propose a Multilayer Content-Adaptive Recurrent Unit (CARU) network for paragraph information extraction. In addition, we present a type of CNN-based model as an extractor to explore and capture useful features in the hidden state, which represent the content of the entire paragraph. In particular, we introduce the Chebyshev pooling to connect to the end of the CNN-based extractor instead of using the maximum pooling. This can project the features into a probability distribution so as to provide an interpretable evaluation for the final analysis. Experimental results demonstrate the superiority of the proposed approach, being compared to the state-of-the-art models.

Guided wave (GW) testing is regularly used for finding defect locations through long-range screening using low-frequency waves (from 5 to 250 kHz). By using magnetostrictive sensors, some issues, which usually limit the application to nuclear power plants (NPPs), can be fixed. The authors have already shown the basic theoretical background and simulation results concerning a real steel pipe, used for steam discharge, with a complex structure. On the basis of such theoretical framework, a new campaign has been designed and developed on the same pipe, and the obtained experimental results are now here presented as a useful benchmark for the application of GWs as nondestructive techniques. Experimental measures using a symmetrical probe and a local probe in different configurations (pulse-echo and pitch-catch) indicate that GW testing with magnetostrictive sensors can be reliably applied to long-term monitoring of NPPs components.

Sports competition characteristics play an important role in judging the fairness of the game and improving the skills of the athletes. At present, the feature recognition of sports competition is affected by the environmental background, which causes problems in feature recognition. In order to improve the effect of feature recognition of sports competition, this study improves the TLD algorithm, and uses machine learning to build a feature recognition model of sports competition based on the improved TLD algorithm. Moreover, this study applies the TLD algorithm to the long-term pedestrian tracking of PTZ cameras. In view of the shortcomings of the TLD algorithm, this study improves the TLD algorithm. In addition, the improved TLD algorithm is experimentally analyzed on a standard data set, and the improved TLD algorithm is experimentally verified. Finally, the experimental results are visually represented by mathematical statistics methods. The research shows that the method proposed by this paper has certain effects.

Analysis of a comprehensive set of experimental results has proven the substantial effect of the precise preparation conditions upon the structure and superconducting parameters of Ti-Ca-Ba-Cu-O samples. The techniques required for the preparation of specimens of single phase and long-term stability, together with methods for improvement of the characteristic parameters have been determined. Comparing results derived from samples prepared by different methods has allowed the quantitative differences of the characteristic parameters to be evaluated.

Summary The solubility of carbon dioxide (CO2) in underground saline formations is considered to offer significant long-term storage capability to effectively sequester large amounts of anthropogenic CO2. Unlike enhanced oil recovery (EOR), geosequestration relies on longer time scales and involves significantly greater volumes of CO2. Many geosequestration studies assume that the initial brine state is one containing no dissolved hydrocarbons and, therefore, apply simplistic two-component solubility models starting from a zero dissolved-gas state. Many brine formations near hydrocarbons, however, tend to be close to saturation by methane (CH4). The introduction of excess CO2 in such systems results in an extraction of the CH4 into the CO2-rich phase, which, in turn, has implications for monitoring of any sequestration project and offers the possibly additional CH4 mobilization and recovery.
