Based on the monitoring data from 13 typical monitoring sites along the Qinghai–Tibet Highway, the degradation characteristics of the permafrost under asphalt pavement and natural ground surface were analyzed with considerations of climate warming and engineering disturbance. Results indicated...

This paper analyses the change (1995-2009) and its reasons (Berman Decomposition 1993) of employment structure in China's industrial sectors. Then we test the impact of offshoring on the employment structure based on China’s panel data as a whole and by sector. The conclusion shows that...

Metal hydride bed is an important component for the deuterium–tritium fusion energy under development in International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER), in which the hydrogen recovery and delivery properties are influenced by the bed configuration, operation conditions and the...

According to the research experiences of foreign financial literacy and China's actual needs, this paper divided Shanghai residents¡¯ financial literacy into three categories: financial knowledge level, behavior finance background and investment capabilitiy. Then set some related questions to...

The smart grid concept has emerged as a result of the requirement for renewable energy resources and application of new techniques. It is proposed as a practical future form of power distribution system. Evaluating the reliability of smart grids is of great importance and significance. Focusing...

Traditional international trade theories believe export trade has a positive effect on employment, which means exports would increase the level of employment with no difference between genders. Based on enterprise heterogeneity, however, the new-trade theories doubt this conclusion. Using the...

The scientific evaluation methodology for the forecast accuracy of wind power forecasting models is an important issue in the domain of wind power forecasting. However, traditional forecast evaluation criteria, such as Mean Squared Error (MSE) and Mean Absolute Error (MAE), have limitations in...

Block boundary value methods are applied to solve a class of delay differential-algebraic equations. We focus on the asymptotic stability of the numerical methods for linear delay differential-algebraic equations with multiple delays. It is shown that A-stable block boundary value methods...

Sliced Latin hypercube designs, introduced by Qian (2012), are widely used for computer experiments with qualitative and quantitative factors, multiple experiments, cross-validation and stochastic optimization. In this paper, we propose a new class of sliced Latin hypercube design, called the...
