Analysis of heat and mass transfer mechanism of vacuum freeze-drying in the primary drying

The freeze-drying process is a complex heat and mass transfer process virtually. The drying process of freeze-drying is not only the key stage which decides the success of freeze-drying, but also the most difficult stage to control. There are lots of papers about heat and mass transfer in vacuum freeze drying at home and abroad. The present status of research on heat and mass transfer during vacuum freeze drying in the primary drying is summed up and analyzed, the trend of research in this field is discussed in this paper

The transport performance evaluation system building of logistics enterprises

Purpose: modern logistics has a significant role in today’s society, logistics cost accounts for 35% to 50% of total logistics costs, so it’s great significance to improve the transport performance of logistics enterprises. Design/methodology/approach: the authors select the transportation performance evaluation index of logistics enterprise, with the aid of the fuzzy theory and analytic hierarchy process (AHP), adopt the combining method of quantitative and qualitative analysis, construct the transport performance evaluation system of logistics enterprises. Findings: the choice of transport performance evaluation indicator system for Logistics enterprise is in a state of "high", which indicates the indicator selection is reasonable. Research limitations/implications: the selected indicators with experts’ subjective factors can not accurately quantify. Practical implications: it has important practical significance to promote the development of modern logistics enterprises and save social cost. Originality/value: current research methods mainly include the PDCA cycle model, key performance indicators (KPI) and benchmarking method, principal component analysis method, etc. The authors for the first time with the aid of fuzzy theory and analytic hierarchy process (AHP), adopt the combining method of quantitative and qualitative research on transport performance problems.Peer Reviewe

Simulation of Evapotranspiration at a 3-Minute Time Interval Based on Remote Sensing Data and SEBAL Model

Using remote sensing to estimate evapotranspiration minute frequency is the basis for accurately calculating hourly and daily evapotranspiration from the regional scale. However, from the existing research, it is difficult to use remote sensing data to estimate evapotranspiration minute frequency. This paper uses GF-4 and moderate-resolution imaging spectroradiometer (MODIS) data in conjunction with the Surface Energy Balance Algorithm for Land (SEBAL) model to estimate ET at a 3-min time interval in part of China and South Korea, and compares those simulation results with that from field measured data. According to the spatial distribution of ET derived from GF-4 and MODIS, the texture of ET derived from GF-4 is more obvious than that of MODIS, and GF-4 is able to express the variability of the spatial distribution of ET. Meanwhile, according to the value of ET derived from both GF-4 and MODIS, results from these two satellites have significant linear correlation, and ET derived from GF-4 is higher than that from MODIS. Since the temporal resolution of GF-4 is 3 min, the land surface ET at a 3-min time interval could be obtained by utilizing all available meteorological and remote sensing data, which avoids error associated with extrapolating instantaneously from a single image

Global dynamics of a parabolic type equation arising from the curvature flow

This paper studies a type of degenerate parabolic problem with nonlocal term \begin{equation*} \begin{cases} u_t=u^p(u_{xx}+u-\bar{u}) & 0<t<T_{{\max}},\ 0<x<a, u_x(0,t)=u_x(a,t)=0 & 0<t<T_{{\max}}, u(x,0)=u_0(x) & 0<x<a, \end{cases} \end{equation*} where $p>1$, $a>0$. In this paper, the classification of the finite-time blowup/global existence phenomena based on the associated energy functional and explicit expression of all nonnegative steady states are demonstrated. Moreover, we combine the applications of Lojasiewicz-Simon inequality and energy estimates to derive that any bounded solution with positive initial data converges to some steady state as $t\rightarrow +\infty$

mHealth in China and the United States: How Mobile Technology is Transforming Healthcare in the World's Two Largest Economies

In this paper, we explore ways mobile technology can help with these difficulties. Specifically, we look at avenues through which mobile devices boost productivity, aid communications, and help providers improve affordability, access, and treatment. Using data drawn from China and the United States as well as global trends, we look at recent developments andemerging opportunities in mobile health, or mHealth. We argue that mobile technology assists patients, health providers, and policymakers in several different respects. It helps patients by giving them tools to monitor their health conditions and communicate those results to physicians. It enables health providers to connect with colleagues and offers alternative sources of information for patients. It is also an important tool to inform policymakers on health delivery and medical outcomes
