Exploratory Study of Promotional Videos in the 10 Major Tourist Destinations in China: A Content Analysis
Since the mid 1990s, both domestic and international tourism in China has grown rapidly evidenced in many destinations. In particular, tourism plays an important role as a major destination in regional economic development. This article reviews promotional videos of the main destinations in China as research data, analyzes the common content elements, orientations, presentation methods, persuasion methods, time patterns, and the use of sound, music and volume in Beijing, Nanjing, Chengdu, Chongqing, Xiâan, Qingdao, Shanghai, Shenzhen, Xiamen, and Hangzhou. Finally, the authors make suggestions regarding the images of promotional videos, reflecting on the subjects, contents and techniques of shooting the videos, and study the content and techniques of the photographers. Moreover, the authors put forward suggestions on improving promotional videos of destinations from the perspective of the subjects, contents and techniques of shooting
Based on Fuzzy Bayesian Network of Oil Wharf Handling Risk Assessment
In order to make the risk assessment method of oil wharf handling more reasonable, basic data calibration method more accurate, and assessment findings more objective, the fuzzy weights of the relative probability of basic events are calibrated by ANP decision-making (Analytic Network Process). ANP decision-making is appropriate for reflecting the dependence between the basic events and the feedback relationship. The calibration value is used as the probability value of each basic event. Based on the fault tree model, the relationship between the accidents caused by the Bayesian network is constructed, and the important degree of the basic events is quantitatively evaluated. The case focuses on wharf handling gasoline fire and explosions, using ANP method to calibrate probability, and analyzing and sorting the structural importance, the probability importance, and critical degree of each basic event through forward and backward reasoning. The results showed that the evaluation model can better characterize the effect of the basic events on the top events, which can be targeted to identify security weaknesses in oil wharf handling process. It has some practical significance for finding security risks and improving working conditions and the overall system safety level

Crustal velocity structure in the South Yellow Sea revealed by the joint tomographic inversion of reflected and refracted seismic waves
The crustal velocity structure in the South Yellow Sea (SYS) Basin is crucial for understanding the basinâs geological structure and evolution. OBS (ocean-bottom station) data from the OBS2013 line have been used to determine the crustal velocity structure in the SYS. The velocity model of the upper crust in the northern SYS was determined using first-arrival traveltime tomography. The model showed a higher resolution shallow crustal velocity structure but a lower resolution middle-lower crustal velocity structure. The crustal velocity structure, together with the Moho discontinuity in the SYS Basin, was also constructed using a humanâcomputer interactive traveltime simulation, and the result was highly dependent on the prior knowledge of the operator. In this study, we reconstructed a crustal velocity model in the SYS Basin using a joint tomographic inversion of the traveltime and its gradient data of the reflected and refracted waves picked from the OBS data. The resolution of the inverted velocity structure from shallow-to-deep crust was improved. The results revealed that the massive high-velocity body below the Haiyang Sag of the Jiaolai Basin extends to the Qianliyan Uplift in the SYS; the low-velocity Cretaceous strata directly cover the pre-Sinitic metamorphic rock basement of the Sulu orogenic belt; and the thick Meso-Paleozoic marine strata are retained beneath the MesoâCenozoic continental strata in the northern depression. The Moho depth in the SYS Basin ranges from 28 to 32Â km
