A lot of ping-pong balls may fall on ground round the ping-pong table, whenever people take part in the ping-pong sport,. In order to collect them conveniently, this paper puts forward a new method that applies aerodynamic principles. By vacuum, ping-pong balls are collected into the collecting box. The special vacuum ball-collector is designed and made. The results show that ball-collector is better than current other ping-pong ball-collectors at time and work. It has broad application worth.

In order to measure the water drainage volume in soil mechanical tests accurately, it develop a new method which is based on principles of optics. And from both physical and mathematic aspects, it deduces the mathematic relationship between micro change in displacement and the increment projected on screen. The result shows that total reflection condition is better than refraction condition. What’s more, the screen could show the water volume micro variation clearly, so it can improve the accuracy of measurement.

The analysis and understand of human behavior is broad application in the computer vision domain, modeling the human pose is one of the key technology. In order to simplify the model of the human pose and expediently describe the human pose, a lot of condition was appended to confine the process of human pose modeling or the application environments in the current research. In this paper, a new method for modeling the human pose was proposed. The human pose was modeled by the structural relation according to the physiological structural, the advantages of the model are the independent of move, the independent of scale of the human image and the dependent of view angle, it can be used to modeling the human behavior in video.

Abstract An accompanying paper provides the theoretical underpinnings of a new method to determine statically admissible stress distributions in a structure, called Bounded elastic moduli multiplier technique (BEMMT). It has been shown that, for textbook cases such as thick cylinder, beam, etc., the proposed method offers statically admissible stress distributions better than the power law and closer to elastic-plastic solutions. This paper offers several examples to demonstrate the robustness of this method. Upper and lower bound limit loads are calculated using iterative elastic analyses using both power law and BEMMT. These results are compared with the ones obtained from elastic-plastic FEA. Consistently BEMMT has outperformed power law when it comes to estimating lower bound limit loads.

A new method for the determination of Sr-90 dissolved in surface waters has been developed. It is based on the precipitation of Sr with 8-hydroxyquinoline at pH 11.3 and counting of β particles with energy above 150 keV. The detection limit obtained is 0.5 mBq/L and the mean yield is 28%. The decontamination factors from other β emitters achieved are better than 10 000. This method has been used to measure the Sr-90 in 5 lakes and 5 rivers in Québec and activities ranging from 3 to 15 mBq/L were obtained. This new method is as efficient and reliable as conventional techniques while being less tedious.

Snow avalanches are catastrophic phenomena because of their destructive power. Therefore, it is very important to forecast the affected area of snow avalanches using numerical simulations. In our study, we focus on applying a numerical model to snow avalanches. The inertia-dependent flow friction model, which we call the “I-dependent” model, is a promising numerical model based on granular flow experiments and includes the local inertial effect. This model was introduced in previous studies as it predicts the shape and velocity of the granular flow accurately. We numerically investigated the particle diameter effect of the I-dependent model, and found that the smaller the particle diameter is, the faster the flow front velocity becomes. The final flow shape is similar to a crescent shape when the particle diameter is small. We applied this model to the ping-pong ball flow experiment, which imitated a snow avalanche on a ski jump slope. Comparing between the experimental and simulated results, the flow shape is better reproduced when the particle diameter is small, while the numerical simulation using a real ping-pong ball diameter did not show the clear crescent shape. Moreover, the relative error analysis shows that the best fit between experimental and simulated flow front velocity occurs when the particle diameter is larger than the actual size of a ping-pong ball. We conjecture that this discrepancy is mainly caused by aerodynamic effects, which, in this case, are large due to the low density of ping-pong balls. Therefore, it is necessary to explore the granular features of ping-pong balls or snow avalanches by conducting experiments, as done in previous experimental studies. Through such efforts, it may be possible to apply this I-dependent model to snow avalanches in the future.

ABSTRACT In this paper, we present masses of 103 asteroids deduced from their perturbations on the orbits of the inner planets, in particular Mars and the Earth. These determinations and the INPOP19a planetary ephemerides are improved by the recent Mars orbiter navigation data and the updated orbit of Jupiter based on the Juno mission data. More realistic mass estimates are computed by a new method based on random Monte Carlo sampling that uses up-to-date knowledge of asteroid bulk densities. We provide masses with uncertainties better than 33${{\ \rm per\ cent}}$ for 103 asteroids. Deduced bulk densities are consistent with those observed within the main spectroscopic complexes.

Considering the weaknesses existing in the present topic crawling strategies, this paper puts forward a new method which is based on Wikipedia and the analysis of page similarity. Firstly, the topic is described via Wikipedia. Then, handle the downloaded web. Finally, calculate the priorities of the links through text relativity and analysis of the web links. The result indicates that this new method is better than the traditional in terms of searching results and topic relativity and is worth popularizing.

A two-step method is developed for computing eigenvalues and resonances of the radial Schrödinger equation. Numerical results obtained for the integration of the eigenvalue and the resonance problem for several potentials show that this new method is better than other similar methods.
