A Systems Dynamics Simulation Study of Network Public Opinion Evolution Mechanism
The factors that affect formation and dissemination of public opinion have been studied for a long time. However, the findings are disparate and fragmented, given the characteristics of netizens and new media in the Big Data...
Are Entrepreneurial Capabilities and Prior Knowledge the Silver Bullet for the Generation of New Digital Venture Ideas in a Digital Context?
Digital technology has had changed the uncertain nature of the process of new venture idea generation, and it has also brought unprecedented opportunities for the generation of new digital venture ideas. To explore how startups...
Broad bandwidth dual-wavelength fiber laser simultaneously delivering stretched pulse and dissipative soliton.
We numerically and experimentally demonstrate the generation of broad bandwidth mode-locked dual-wavelength pulses with diverse-pattern from a dispersion managed erbium-doped (Er-doped) fiber laser. The two-peak gain profile of...
Hydrodynamic Response and Power Efficiency Analysis of Heaving Wave Energy Converter Integrated with Breakwater
The hydrodynamic and power capture performance of an asymmetric floating device called “Dolphin” wave energy converter (WEC) integrated with a fixed breakwater has been proposed. The operation of the floating WEC device is...

Integration of Bricolage and Institutional Entrepreneurship for Internet Finance
This article describes how current research on the institutional entrepreneurship process tends to ‘design principles.' There is lack of research on mechanism and strategy of the institutional bricolage, especially for Internet...
A Study of the Contribution of Information Technology on the Growth of Tourism Economy Using Cross-Sectional Data
Information technology (IT) has dramatically changed tourism industry, particularly in facilitating and improving information discovery and dissemination in tourism industry. Prior research has identified the key role that IT...
Identity Authentication Security Management in Mobile Payment Systems
Mobile payment is a new payment method offering users mobility, reachability, compatibility, and convenience. But mobile payment involves great uncertainty and risk given its electronic and wireless nature. Therefore, biometric...
102 fs pulse generation from a long-term stable, inkjet-printed black phosphorus-mode-locked fiber laser.
We demonstrate a long-term stable, all-fiber, erbium-doped femtosecond laser mode-locked by a black phosphorus saturable absorber. The saturable absorber, fabricated by scalable and highly controllable inkjet printing...

New method for mapping radial turbines exposed to pulsating flows
Zheng Liu, Colin Copeland
Nov 01, 2018

In this paper, a new method for mapping radial turbines will be demonstrated and shown to be superior to the standard approach typical to gas-stand laboratories. This is especially true in situations where the turbine is...

Real-time laser tracker compensation of a 3-axis positioning system—dynamic accuracy characterization

The concept of integrating metrology systems into production processes has generated significant interest in industry due to its potential in reducing production time and defective parts. One of the most interesting methods...

Verification of the indoor GPS system, by comparison with calibrated coordinates and by angular reference
This paper details work carried out to verify the dimensional measurement performance of the Indoor GPS (iGPS) system; a network of Rotary-Laser Automatic Theodolites (R-LATs). Initially tests were carried out to determine the...
Enhanced 6D Measurement by Integrating an Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) with a 6D Sensor Unit of a Laser Tracker

Six-degree-of-freedom (6D) sensors enhance the measurement capability of traditional three-degree-of-freedom (3D) laser trackers. However, the classical 6D measurement techniques still have shortcomings in actual use, such as...

Uncertainty of measurement for large product verification
Understanding the uncertainty of dimensional measurements for large products such as aircraft, spacecraft and wind turbines is fundamental to improving efficiency in these products. Much work has been done to ascertain the...
The Perspective of Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Symbiosis in Rice Domestication and Breeding.
In nature, symbiosis with arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi contributes to sustainable acquisition of phosphorus and other elements in over 80% of plant species; improving interactions with AM symbionts may mitigate some of the...
Design and development of a ceiling-mounted workshop measurement positioning system for large-scale metrology
This paper presents a new ceiling-mounted workshop Measurement Positioning System (C-wMPS) compensating for many deficiencies shown by conventional metrology systems, especially on the possibility of task-oriented designing for...
