Development of a downsized proton accelerator system for compact neutron sources

In order to facilitate the widespread use of neutrons in industrial applications, it is important to provide a compact, semi-ready-made neutron source that a company and a factory can easily install. We are therefore developing a compact neutron source system utilizing a downsized proton accelerator as an entry level model for industrial use and materials development, which consists of a proton source, a four-vane radio frequency quadrupole linear accelerator (RFQ) and a lithium target for neutron production by the Li(p,n)37Be47 reaction. An RFQ is suitable to accelerate protons in the low energy region because it accepts DC beams extracted from the proton source and accelerates effectively to the design energy with bunching and focusing using the electric fields. Furthermore, it is possible to design the RFQ with a higher frequency than conventionally used owing to technological advances in high power solid-state RF amplifiers. We investigated the specifications for 500 MHz and 650 MHz through beam trajectory and electromagnetic simulations and fabricated a 2.5 MeV prototype of the 500 MHz type with a 2.45 GHz ECR proton source.

Role of materials design in maintenance engineering in the context of industry 4.0 idea

Purpose: The paper presents the issues of designing the maintenance of materials and products in accordance with the idea of Industry 4.0. The author's views on the need for augmentation of the Industry 4.0 model were also presented, as well as the author's original concept that hybrid activities in predictive maintenance and condition-based maintenance should be preceded by designing material, maintenance & manufacturing 3MD at the stage of the product's material designing and technological designing. The 3MD approach significantly reduces the frequency of assumed actions, procedures and resources necessary to remain the condition of this product for the longest possible time, enabling it to perform the designed working functions. Examples of own advanced research on several selected, newly developed materials, used in very different areas of application, confirmed the validity of the scientific hypothesis and the relationship between the studied phenomena and structural effects and the working functions of products and their maintenance and indicated that material design is one of the most important elements guaranteeing progress production at the stage of Industry 4.0 of the industrial revolution. Design/methodology/approach: The author's considerations are based on an extensive literature study and the results of the author's previous study and empirical work. Each of the examples given required the use of a full set of research methods available to modern material engineering, including HRTEM high-resolution transmission electron microscopy. Findings: The most interesting intellectual achievements contained in the paper include presentations of the author's original concepts regarding the augmentation of the Industry 4.0 model, which has been distributed so far, which not only requires augmentation but is actually only one of the 4 elements of the technology platform of the extended holistic model of current industrial development, concerning cyber-IT production aided system. The author also presents his own concept for designing material, maintenance and manufacturing 3MD already at the stage of material and technological design of the product, eliminating many problems related to product maintenance, even before they are manufactured and put into exploitation. Detailed results of detailed structural researches of several selected avant-garde engineering materials and discussion of structural changes that accompanying their manufacturing and/or processing are also included. Originality/value: The originality of the paper is associated with the novelty of the approach to analysing maintenance problems of materials and products, taking into account the requirements of the contemporary stage of Industry 4.0 development. The value of the paper is mainly associated with the presentation of original issues referred to as findings, including the concept of augmentation of the Industry 4.0 model and the introduction and experimental confirmation of the idea by designing material, maintenance and manufacturing 3MD.

Green Development Behavior and Performance of Industrial Enterprises Based on Grounded Theory Study: Evidence from China

The issue of the green development of industrial enterprises has become the focus of attention of all parties. However, the driving factors of green development behavior and performance in industrial enterprises remains unexplored. What are the driving factors of green development behavior and performance in industrial enterprises? How does the theoretical model of green development behavior and performance in industrial enterprises work? In order to reveal the driving factors of green development behavior and performance in industrial enterprises, this paper develops a theoretical model and tests the model through the evidence of Chinese industrial enterprises. Based on the further study of in-depth interview materials from 52 employees in industrial enterprises, this paper takes industrial enterprises as the research object and constructs a theoretical model by using a grounded theory method. The results show that 40 initial concepts, 10 initial categories, four main categories and three core categories are obtained through the coding step of grounded theory. The study found the following three conclusions: (1) The green development of industrial enterprise exists in the organization in the form of specific behavioral expressions; (2) The green development of industrial enterprise caused the occurrence of green development behavior of industrial enterprises. The external factors of industrial enterprise green development consist of the environment of policy and institutional, market environment and public supervision. The internal factors of industrial enterprise green development are composed of tangible and intangible resources of enterprises; (3) The occurrence of industrial enterprise green development behavior has led to the consequence of green development of industrial enterprises. The consequence is embodied in the green development performance of industrial enterprises, including corporate financial performance, corporate environmental performance and corporate social performance. In addition, some management implications are presented based on the research findings. This research enriches the field of green development theory, business development theory and green behavior research. This study also provides a reference for exploring theoretical models of industrial enterprise green development in other countries and regions of the world.

Evolution of a Development Model for Fruit Industry Against Background of Rising Labor Cost: Intensive or Extensive Adjustment?

As an important starting point for optimizing the structure of agricultural products and implementing green production methods, the direction of orchard management development is directly related to the success of “supply side” reform in the fruit industry in China. However, in the context of the progressive rise of labor force, is the labor force still capable of the high labor intensity and fine cultivation management needed, such as for pruning? In this paper, based on the micro-production data of peach farmers in different provinces, we set up a decision model of fruit trees management to analyze the effects of changes in the labor cost on orchard management’s input for farmers with different trading characteristics under the information asymmetry theory. The results show that with the increase of labor force cost, although the total labor investment of farmer households has somewhat reduced, significant differences exist in the distribution of labor investment between the different farmers due to the different labor demands from the various trading characteristics. By repeated transactions that transmit information of quality, farmers can get a high marginal price of fruit, and these relatively repeated transactions further increase the labor investment of fine management. Foreseeably, the rising of rural labor cost will have a negative impact on fine cultivation management in the fruit and nut industries, which have the same management methods for pruning and flower (fruit) thinning. Therefore, this paper offers relevant policy recommendations for the support of agriculture products brand, optimization of production tools, expansion of operation scale, and the establishment of networks of companies, aimed at sharing skilled labor for the execution of quality work, etc.

Methodological provisions of building models of industrial enterprise development

In the age of information technology, characterized by a large amount of current data, the process of processing and structuring information has become particularly relevant. The basic approach for selecting information in the context of an information explosion should be the principle of sufficiency, i.e. information should be no more and no less, it should be enough to make a decision. After all, excessive information leads to informational noise and the risk of making the wrong decision. The correct and accurate formulation of the problem is the first and necessary stage of any system research. An important methodological issue is the need to identify the following relationships: a tool for realizing the goal, when it is most effective, what is the cost of its implementation and profitability, and the last question is the reverse return from this tool.The emerging problems are usually distinguished by the degree of their structuring: by clarity, by the awareness of their formulation, by the degree of their specification and specification, by the ratio of quantitative and qualitative factors. Considering this, there are three classes of problems: well-structured and quantitatively structured, poorly structured or mixed problems, unstructured or qualitative problems.And the last methodological problem is how to determine the criteria and indicators for achieving the goal, whether it is necessary to have a standard approach to determining the fulfillment of the goal or to take into account possible changes during the period of the fulfillment of the goal and correlate them to real changes that have occurred. The article proposes a 9-stage management decision making algorithm. It is shown that for poorly formalized tasks an effective tool is the method of qualitative modeling of complex organizational structures.

Identification and Prioritization of Effective Factors on the Creation and Development of Industry Cluster of Rail Industries Using Network Analysis Technique

Increased productivity and new investment are two methods for the development of industry, and one of the differences between advanced industrial countries and developing countries is to pay particular attention to development through increased productivity. In recent years, new models have been developed in the industry sector, dating to less than fifteen years; one of them is the model of industrial cluster development. Industrial clustering is being carried out today in almost every country in the world. In Iran, the industrial cluster issue is considered in scientific and decision-making centers, as well as in the development plans of the country. The purpose of this research was to identify and prioritize the effective factors on the development and creation of industry cluster of rail industries in the Markazi Province using the network analysis technique. In order to identify cluster creation factors, library studies and the Delphi method were used with the cooperation of the expert group. In the following, we examined the relative importance of these factors using the network analysis technique and the factors were prioritized by Super Decision Application. The results showed that the indicators of geographical concentration and environmental factors are included in the most important factors and the communication index is the least important factor in the creation and development of industrial clusters of rail industries in the Markazi Province.

An analysis on the economic cooperation and the industrial synergy of the main river region: from the perspective of the Yangtze river economic zone

The Yangtze River, as the third longest river in the world, is the longest river which just runs through one country. This paper firstly analyses the current development of the Yangtze River Economic Zone and the prominent issues restricting the economic competitiveness and the industrial synergy of the region. And then the economic synergistic development model and the industrial synergistic development model of cities in the Yangtze River Economic Zone are established. The statistics of Anhui Province and Jiangsu Province are selected as examples. The analysis indicates that the main cities in the Yangtze River Economic Zone have a slight influence on each other. The central city lacks of the impetus function and industrial linkage, so that the feasible supporting industries have not been developed. According to the analysis, the development strategy of the main trunk river region, the Yangtze River Economic Zone, is presented, which recommends strengthening the reaction among cities, driving the overall economic expansion, optimizing the urban industrial layout, forming a new industries supporting pattern with upstream and downstream linkage and improving the rapid development of “manufacturing and services”, “manufacturing and the Internet” and so on. The analysis on the economic cooperation and the industrial synergy of the Yangtze River Economic Zone could have a significant influence on improving the feasible division of China’s regional economy and the industry linkage and support the implementing of China’s “the Belt and Road initiative”. Meanwhile, the analysis also has important significance for researching the main trunk river regions’ coordinating development, industry linkage and resources in the world.

Evolution of a Development Model for Fruit Industry against Background of an Aging Population: Intensive or Extensive Adjustment?

As an important starting point for optimizing the structure of agricultural products and implementing green production methods, the direction of orchard management development is directly related to the success of “supply side” reform in the fruit industry in China. However, in the context of the progressive aging of the rural labor force, is the old labor force still capable of the high labor intensity and fine cultivation management needed, such as for pruning, or to maintain or improve the application efficiency of fertilizers? In this paper, based on the micro-production data of peach farmers in Jiangsu Province, we explore the influence of aging on the management of fruit trees and further introduce fruit tree management into the production function to analyze the effects of different orchard management methods on fertilizer efficiency. The results show that with the increase of labor force age, although the total labor investment of aged farmer households has somewhat increased, significant differences exist in the distribution of labor investment between the different production processes due to the different labor demands from the various production processes. In technical stages that demand good physical capabilities, such as pruning and flower/fruit thinning, elderly farmers have significantly reduced labor investment than younger ones, and this relative shortfall further reduces the marginal output of their chemical and organic fertilizers. Foreseeably, the aging of the rural labor force will have a negative impact on the efficiency of chemical and other fertilizers, cost-cutting, and profit-making in the fruit and nut industries, which have the same management methods for pruning and flower (fruit) thinning. Therefore, this paper offers relevant policy recommendations for the optimization of production tools, expansion of operation scale, and development of socialized services for the fruit industry, etc.

Chinese Industrial Development and Policy Adjustment in Anaphase of Industrialization

Through nearly forty years rapid development, China has entered the anaphase of industrialization. With the changes of factor conditions and development environment, the traditional industrial development model is encountering serious bottleneck restriction. Meanwhile, the growth power of industry tends to weaken gradually. The thirteenth five-year plan period is the key period of realizing industrialization. Industrial development formation will experience deep adjustment not only including the changes of proportion and speed, but also including the changes of industrial structure, development mode and driving factors. Therefore, the government should timely adjust industrial policy, focus on accumulation of innovation elements and optimization of innovation environmental, and allow the market to play a decisive role in resource allocation.

Off-line coupling of new generation centrifugal partition chromatography device with preparative high pressure liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry triggering fraction collection applied to the recovery of secoiridoid glycosides from Centaurium erythraea Rafn. (Gentianaceae)

A purification sequence including a Gilson CPC 250 PRO device coupled to PrepHPLC hyphenated with a MS triggering fraction collector was applied to isolate secoiridoid glycosides from a complex methanolic extract of Centaurium erythraea. This species is widely used for ethnomedicinal purposes around the Mediterranean Sea.The solvent system ethyle acetate/ethanol/water 7.5/3/5 was determined using shake-flask method targeting swertiamarin, the major secoiridoid of the extract. Optimization of CPC experimental parameters enabled the injection of 4g of extract with a flow rate of 40mL/min at 3000rpm to provide a secoiridoid glycosides enriched fraction. 130mg of this latter was submitted to a second step of purification by preparative HPLC (gradient water/formic acid (19:1) (A) and methanol (B) as follows: 0min, 85% A; 8min, 60% A; 12min, 55% A; 35min, 55% A; 40min, 10% A; 50min, 10% A; 52min, 85% A; 55min, 85% A) to give swertiamarin (36mg, yield 27.7%, purity 98.2%). Other secoiridoid glycosides (sweroside, gentiopicroside, secologanol, secoxyloganin) were also isolated in minor amounts. As these monoterpene derivatives are responsible for several biological activities, their quick recovery with high yield and purity may serve as a model for further scale-up and industrial development.

The Development of Industrial Symbiosis in Existing Contexts. Experiences From Three Italian Clusters

It is acknowledged that Industrial Symbiosis (IS) is not only a technical phenomenon; socio-relational, organizational, and cultural issues come to light in its development as well. This is much more evident when an IS relies on existing contexts. Industrial networks and clusters have been proven to be one of the best models of local industrial development, and they can be considered also a favorable starting context for IS projects. The relations between traditional and symbiotic networks have been deeply investigated, but the complexity and the scientific and practical implications of the topic render the discussion still open. The present article contributes to this debate by clarifying the dynamics of the IS development in connection with the features of existing industrial clusters. The study proposed uses the results and the experiences gained by the authors in three case studies previously conducted, in order to develop an interpretative framework for assessing the potential and the limits for the development of IS-based scenarios. Empirical evidences show both the role of significant technical factors in designing the IS and the role played by non-technical factors in promoting and preventing its potential implementation.

Path Choice of Developing Bio-energy while Keeping Food Security ---a General Equilibrium Model

This paper focused on a discussion whether developing bio-energy will threaten food security in China. It constructed a general equilibrium analysis model based on demand-supply theory. The model contains two types of bio-energy resources and different factors influencing crops demand and supply. The model took price as endogenous variable. Under different conditions, the paper studied how the exogenous variables influence the equilibrium. The model also includes a bio-energy production function to interpret the different responds of the bio-energy supply with the change of exogenous variables. Two constraint conditions and four results simulated the real bio-energy development. Using pure economics method rather than the gimcrack econometrics method is an innovation on applied energy economics study, and it is thought to make a slight contribution to the new energy industrial development model. Building a dynamic stochastic general equilibrium (DSGE) model to solve the problems that were not solved in this paper is the work going on next.

Evolution of network relations, enterprise learning, and cluster innovation networks: the case of the Yuyao plastics industry cluster

ABSTRACTIndustrial clusters have become a crucial carrier of economic globalisation. However, constrained by the nation’s industrial development model, clusters in China have long been relegated to a low-end position. This study, based on the perspective of focal enterprises, analysed the relationships among network relations, enterprise learning, and the evolution of cluster innovation networks and explored the three formation stages of a cluster innovation network by examining the example of the Yuyao plastics industry cluster. The results showed (1) that focal enterprises exert spin-off effects on enterprise learning and are critical for innovation networking and (2) that weak network ties facilitate exploratory learning, whereas strong ties influence exploitative learning. In addition, tie strength showed a coevolutionary feature. Furthermore, the results showed that (3) this evolutionary process demonstrated a phase-changing characteristic, with government policy exhibiting substantial effects on focal enterprises, organisational learning mechanisms, and cluster innovation networks.

A külföldi működő tőke által vezérelt iparfejlődési modell és határai Közép-Európában

A tanulmány célja az elmúlt évtizedekben meghatározóan a külföldi működő tőkére alapozott iparfejlődés összehasonlító értékelése a tágan értelmezett posztszocialista Közép-Európa országaiban és régióiban. Ez a folyamat, amely a rendszerváltások utáni dezindusztrializációt követően bontakozott ki, piaci erők által mozgatott, térben szelektív újraiparosodáshoz vezetett a posztszocialista országok régióinak egy részében. A külföldi működő tőkén alapuló iparfejlődés gyors megoldást kínált számos ipari térség válságára, és elősegítette Közép-Európa (újra)integrációját az európai, illetve a globális ipar munkamegosztásába. Bármennyire versenyképes struktúrák jöttek létre, az átalakulást nemcsak jelentős vállalatok közötti és térbeli különbségek fémjelzik, hanem ma már azt a kérdést is meg kell fogalmazni, hogy milyen mellékhatásokkal, haszonáldozati költségekkel járt a folyamat, és a következő évtizedekben mennyire marad fenntartható a jelenlegi növekedési modell. A tanulmány ezért öt részre oszlik. Az első részben megvizsgálja a gazdaságszerkezeti átalakulás Közép-Európa térszerkezetére gyakorolt következményeit, és azt, hogy milyen hajtóerők mozgatják az egyes gazdasági szektorok térbeli letelepülését. A második és harmadik részben bemutatja a külföldi működő tőkén alapuló iparfejlődés legfontosabb vonásait, valamint azt, hogyan lokalizálódnak az ipari tevékenységek, szakértői megkérdezés eredményeivel is alátámasztva. A negyedik rész a fejlődési modell buktatóiról, továbbfejleszthetőségének kérdéseiről szól, amit a tanulmány végén a közép-európai ipar fenntartható fejlődéséről megfogalmazott következtetések zárnak.

A new age of public-oriented Earth observation development}{A new age of public-oriented Earth observation development

Atmospheric, marine, and terrestrial Earth observations have been carried out by the government for half a century; their industrial characteristics notably benefit the public. The observation mode has been diversified, richer application methods have been introduced, especially the micro satellite cloud, and the observations and data-providing capabilities have been greatly improved in the past ten years due to the increasing number of satellites. Earth observations have entered the new era of big data and have become the main focus with respect to big scientific and consumption data. The industrial Earth observation development model is analyzed in this paper with respect to industrial ecological systems. The microsatellite cloud and big data technology are the two main forces of the shift of the development mode of Earth observations from public benefit-oriented to public-oriented. The study further analyzes the diverse effects of the public on Earth observation activities. We believe that the public will gradually become an active factor affecting all aspects of Earth observations. Meanwhile, public-oriented Earth observations target a bigger market. The public is both the main consumer and producer of Earth observation information. The public-oriented development model provides great opportunities for Earth observations and space-based information industry development; however, it also puts forward a series of scientific and technical challenges for the scientific community.

Fixed priority scheduling with pre-emption thresholds and cache-related pre-emption delays: integrated analysis and evaluation

Commercial off-the-shelf programmable platforms for real-time systems typically contain a cache to bridge the gap between the processor speed and main memory speed. Because cache-related pre-emption delays (CRPD) can have a significant influence on the computation times of tasks, CRPD have been integrated in the response time analysis for fixed-priority pre-emptive scheduling (FPPS). This paper presents CRPD aware response-time analysis of sporadic tasks with arbitrary deadlines for fixed-priority pre-emption threshold scheduling (FPTS), generalizing earlier work. The analysis is complemented by an optimal (pre-emption) threshold assignment algorithm, assuming the priorities of tasks are given. We further improve upon these results by presenting an algorithm that searches for a layout of tasks in memory that makes a task set schedulable. The paper includes an extensive comparative evaluation of the schedulability ratios of FPPS and FPTS, taking CRPD into account. The practical relevance of our work stems from FPTS support in AUTOSAR, a standardized development model for the automotive industry. [(This paper forms an extended version of Bril et al. (in Proceedings of 35th IEEE real-time systems symposium (RTSS), 2014). The main extensions are described in Sect. 1.2.]
