Ai-Empowered Inclusive Strategies for Fishing Villages

With the development of the economy and society, the continuous development and application of artificial intelligence have gradually become an important factor and driving force to promote the transformation and upgrading of all walks of life. Promoting artificial intelligence has inevitably become the best way to empower the governance and services of fishing village communities, which is also the general trend of future development. Artificial intelligence, as an organized force, plays an important role in community governance, but at present, the potential of artificial intelligence to empower community governance in fishing villages has not been fully tapped. Through literature survey, literature review and comparative analysis, this paper investigates and studies the current situation of community governance in artificial intelligence-empowered fishing villages, finds and raises some related problems. Then the survey found the significant role of artificial intelligence on community governance in fishing villages. Finally, according to the current situation of AI-empowered fishing village community governance, some constructive suggestions are put forward about AI-empowered inclusive strategies for fishing villages

Odor Characteristics and Formation Pathways of Low-Salted Large Yellow Croaker

In this study, our purpose was to investigate the effect of mild salting on the flavor of large yellow croaker. The volatile flavor compounds of raw (unsalted) and low-salted large yellow croaker were determined by solid phase microextraction (SPME) combined with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and evaluated by gas chromatography-olfactometry (GC-O) and odor activity values (OAV) analysis. The GC-MS analysis showed that the contents of hexanal, nonanal, heptanal, 1-octene-3-ol, anethole and hexanol in both samples were higher than those of other volatile compounds identified. GC-O and OAV analysis showed that the flavor of raw large yellow croaker was significantly affected by 1-octene-3-ol, octanal, nonanal, hexanal, heptanal, (E,Z)-2,6-nonadienal, trans-2-octenal and anethole (OAV > 1); the flavor of low-salted large yellow croaker was significantly affected by linalool, nonanal, hexanal, octanal, 1-octene-3-ol, anethole, (E,Z)-2,6-nonadienal and heptanal (OAV > 1). The changes in flavor after salting treatment was attributed to a significant increase in the OAV of linalool and anethole, and a significant decrease in the OAV of 1-octene-3-ol, hexanal, nonanal, trans-2-octenal, (E,Z)-2,6-nonadienal, heptanal and octanal. The changes of some flavor components might be related to reactions such as the oxidative degradation of unsaturated fatty acids, the biosynthesis of terpenoids, the isomerization of aromatic alcohols, the oxidation and reduction of aliphatic aldehyde and esterification

A multi-agent framework for ambient systems development

This paper proposes a multi-agent framework to support applications development of ambient systems. In the programming model of the framework, ambient systems can be developed by collaboration of mobile agents and service (or resident) agents, where resident agents provide application services on devices and mobile agents provide communication services on behalf of owner applications. On top of device infrastructure, the architecture of the framework consists of three layers: framework service layer, software agents layer and application layer, to fully support dynamic and collaborative tasks of ambient systems.Peer reviewed: YesNRC publication: Ye

Design and optimization of reverse salient permanent magnet synchronous motor based on controllable leakage flux

In this paper, a controllable leakage flux reverse salient permanent magnet synchronous motor (CLF-RSPMSM) is designed, which has the advantages of wide speed range and low irreversible demagnetization risk. Firstly, the principle of controllable leakage flux and reverse saliency effect is introduced, and the design of the rotor flux barrier is emphatically discussed.

Then the relationship between the main variables and the optimization goal is discussed according to the response surface diagram. Thirdly, a sequential nonlinear programming algorithm (SNP) is used to optimize the three optimization objectives comprehensively. Finally, the electromagnetic performance of the proposed motor is compared with the initial IPM motor, the mechanical strength of the proposed rotor is analyzed, and the results verify the effectiveness of the design and optimization method of the proposed motor

Enzymatic Synthesis of Thioesters from Thiols and Vinyl Esters in a Continuous-Flow Microreactor

The preparation of thioesters through the lipase-catalysed transesterification reaction of thiols with vinyl carboxyl esters is described. The reactions were carried out by Lipase TL IM from Thermomyces lanuginosus as a catalyst and performed under a continuous flow microreactor. We first found that lipase TL IM can be used in the reaction of thioester synthesis with high efficiency. Various reaction parameters were investigated including substrate molar ratio, reaction time, and temperature. Maximum conversion (96%) was obtained under the optimal condition of a substrate molar ratio of 1:2 (4-methylbenzyl mercaptan:vinyl esters) at 50 °C for about 30 min. Compared with other methods, the salient features of this work include mild reaction conditions (50 °C), short reaction times (30 min), high yields, and environment-friendliness

Study of Transformer Harmonic Loss Characteristic in Distribution Network Based on Field-Circuit Coupling Method

One of the primary causes of additional losses in dry-type distribution transformers is harmonic disturbances in the distribution network. It is critical to investigate the change law of trans-former losses under harmonic conditions. The effect of harmonics on transformer core losses and winding losses is first investigated in this paper. The field-circuit coupling method is then used to create a finite element model of a three-phase phase dry type distribution transformer. Finally, the relationship between core loss and harmonic voltage, winding loss and harmonic current is calculated and analyzed for each harmonic frequency. The AC resistance factor model is found to be more accurate than the conventional model in calculating transformer harmonic winding losses. This paper’s findings have significant theoretical implications for the analysis of harmonic losses and loss reduction in distribution networks

Reunderstanding and significance of high-quality reservoirs of the inner Dengying Formation in the Anyue Gas Field

The overall development of the top of the gas reservoir of the Dengying Formation, Upper Sinian in the Anyue Gas Field of the Sichuan Basin, has been deployed, and the inner Dengying Formation is the next potential succession layer. However, the high-quality reservoirs of inner Dengying Formation are undeveloped and cannot be identified on the seismic profiles, which restricts its deepened understanding, exploration and development. In this paper, the logging and seismic response characteristics of high-quality reservoirs were analyzed using the mud logging and well logging data of the Anyue Gas Field, and a seismic response model for high-quality reservoir was established by means of seismic forward modeling. Then, the target processing was carried out for the problem of weak effective signals. Finally, the plane distribution of high-quality reservoirs of inner Dengying Formation and the favorable exploration areas were predicted. And the following research results were obtained. First, there are two types of high-quality reservoirs inside the Dengying Formation, i.e., concentrated vug type and independent cave type. Vertically, the independent cave reservoirs are mainly distributed within 100 m above the mudstone floor of the third Member of Dengying Formation. Horizontally, karst zones are developed along the bed. Laterally, they are scattered and beaded. And the scale is small. Second, seismic response of high-quality reservoirs inside the carbonate rocks is characterized by single-peak concealed “beaded” reflection, whose peak energy is relatively weak and can be easily covered by the noise of seismic data. Third, deep-seated weak signal recovery and processing technology can be used to deal with the weak seismic response of high-quality cave reservoirs, improve the amplitude preservation and S/N ratio of seismic data, and obtain the beaded reflections on seismic profiles so as to realize effective identification of high-quality cave reservoirs. In conclusion, the deep-seated weak signal recovery and processing technology is proved to be operable because the achieved results conform to the drilling data and the seismic forward modeling conclusions. In addition, high-quality cave reservoirs are developed at the bottom of the fourth Member of Dengying Formation, and they are locally distributed in a large scale. Therefore, it's one of the favorable succession layers for the following natural gas exploration and development of the Anyue Gas Field.

Tyrosinase inhibition by p-coumaric acid ethyl ester identified from camellia pollen

A tyrosinase inhibitor was separated from camellia pollen with the aid of solvent fraction, macroporous adsorptive resin chromatography, and high-speed countercurrent chromatography. The inhibitor was identified to be p-coumaric acid ethyl ester (p-CAEE) by nuclear magnetic resonance and mass spectrum. Its inhibitory activity (IC50 = 4.89 μg/ml) was about 10-fold stronger than arbutin (IC50 = 51.54 μg/ml). The p-CAEE inhibited tyrosinase in a noncompetitive model with the KI and Km of 1.83 μg/ml and 0.52 mM, respectively. Fluorescence spectroscopy analysis showed the p-CAEE quenched an intrinsic fluorescence tyrosinase. UV-Vis spectroscopy analysis showed the p-CAEE did not interact with copper ions of the enzyme. Docking simulation implied the p-CAEE induced a conformational change in the catalytic region and thus changed binding forces of L-tyrosine. Our findings suggest that p-CAEE plays an important role in inhibiting tyrosinase and provides a reference for developing pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and fruit preservation products using pollen
