    Transverse momentum structure of strange and charmed baryons: a light-front Hamiltonian approach

    Full text link
    Under the basis light-front quantization framework, we investigate the leading-twist transverse-momentum-dependent parton distribution functions (TMDs) for Λ\Lambda and Λc\Lambda_c baryons, the spin-1/2 composite systems consisting of two light quarks (uu and dd) and a s/cs/c quark. We evaluate the TMDs using the overlaps of the light-front wave functions in the leading Fock sector, which are obtained by solving the light-front eigenvalue equation. We also study the spin densities of quarks in momentum space for various polarizations. In the same model, we compare the TMDs of the strange and charmed baryons and the proton by reviewing their spin structures in the quark model and the probabilistic interpretations of their TMDs.Comment: 18 pages, 6 figure

    BackgroundThe triglyceride glucose (TyG) index is an effective method for determining insulin resistance (IR). Limited research has explored the connection between the TyG index and functionally significant stenosis in hypertensive patients. Furthermore, the connections between the TyG index, fat attenuation index (FAI) and atherosclerotic plaque characteristics are also worth exploring.MethodsThe study screened 1622 hypertensive participants without coronary artery disease history who underwent coronary computed tomography angiography. The TyG index was calculated as ln (fasting glucose [mg/dL] * fasting TG [mg/dL]/2). Adverse plaque characteristics (HRPCs), high-risk plaques (HRPs), FAI, and CT-derived fractional flow reserve (FFRCT) were analyzed and measured for all patients. Functionally significant stenosis causing ischemia is defined as FFRCT ≤ 0.80. Two patient groups were created based on the FFRCT: the FFRCT < 0.80 group and the FFRCT > 0.80 group. In hypertensive patients, the association between the TyG index and FFRCT was examined applying a logistic regression model.ResultsThe TyG index was higher for people with FFRCT ≤ 0.80 contrast to those with FFRCT > 0.80. After controlling for additional confounding factors, the logistic regression model revealed a clear connection between the TyG index and FFRCT ≤ 0.80 (OR = 1.718, 95% CI 1.097–2.690, p = 0.018). The restricted cubic spline analysis displayed a nonlinear connection between the TyG index and FFRCT ≤ 0.80 (p for nonlinear = 0.001). The TyG index increased the fraction of individuals with HRPs and HRPCs, FAI raised, and FFRCT decreased (p < 0.05). The multivariate linear regression analysis illustrated a powerfulcorrelation between high TyG index levels and FAI, FFRCT, positive remodeling (PR), and low-attenuation plaque (LAPs) (standardized regression coefficients: 0.029 [p = 0.007], -0.051 [p < 0.001], 0.029 [p = 0.027], and 0.026 [p = 0.046], separately).ConclusionIn hypertensive patients, the TyG index showed an excellent association with a risk of FFRCT ≤ 0.80. Additionally, the TyG index was also linked to FAI, FFRCT, PR, and LAPs

    The difficulty in directly determining the failure mode of the submersible screw pump will shorten the life of the system and the normal production of the oil well. This thesis aims to identify the fault forms of submersible screw pump accurately and efficiently, and proposes a fault diagnosis method of the submersible screw pump based on random forest. HDFS storage system and MapReduce processing system are established based on Hadoop big data processing platform; Furthermore, the Bagging algorithm is used to collect the training set data. Also, this thesis adopts the CART method to establish the sample library and the decision trees for a random forest model. Six continuous variables, four categorical variables and fault categories of submersible screw pump oil production system are used for training the decision trees. As several decision trees constitute a random forest model, the parameters to be tested are input into the random forest models, and various types of decision trees are used to determine the failure category in the submersible screw pump. It has been verified that the accuracy rate of fault diagnosis is 92.86%. This thesis can provide some meaningful guidance for timely detection of the causes of downhole unit failures, reducing oil well production losses, and accelerating the promotion and application of submersible screw pumps in oil fields

    Dynamic Analysis of Active Heave Compensation System for Marine Winch under the Impact of Irregular Waves

    The six-degree-of-freedom (6 DOF) motion of the mother ship, especially the heave motion, brings difficulties to offshore operations and even causes safety accidents. To ensure the reliability of the launch and recovery system when the active heave compensation (AHC) function works, its dynamic characteristics are analyzed. Firstly, the dynamic model of the launch and recovery system with a rigid rope is constructed, and the mathematical simulation of the launch and recovery system without the AHC function under the excitation of irregular waves is completed. Secondly, a flexible rope based on the finite element method is established, and the dynamic responses of the launch and recovery system with AHC function under different conditions are compared with those without AHC function. The simulation results demonstrate that the dynamic responses of the system are related to the load, the underwater penetration, and the sea condition. In detail, the increase of the load leads to an increase in the dynamic response of the system. In essence, the underwater penetration affects the dynamic response of the system by affecting the activity of load acceleration. Therefore, a short rope is preferred in the maritime operations. Moreover, the harsh sea condition usually causes an undesirable effect of AHC function. In summary, the overall work is conductive to the modeling of the launch and recovery system, as well as the development of AHC technology so as to improve the quality of offshore operations in the future
