The principle of the electronic toll collection system is that the sensor emits radio waves touching the e-tag within a certain range, the e-tag will respond to the radio waves by induction, and the sensor will read and write information of the vehicles. Although the RFID technology is popularly used in campus management systems, there is no e-tag technology application used in a campus parking system. In this paper, we use the e-tag technology on a campus parking management system based on the cloud-based construction. By this, it helps to achieve automated and standardized management of the campus parking system, enhance management efficiency, reduce the residence time of the vehicles at the entrances and exits, and improve the efficiency of vehicles parked at the same time.展开更多

N2O emissions from the soil of the facility vegetable land are an important source. It is important to summarize the research on the N2O emissions from the soil in the facility vegetable land, and is also of great significance to study on the emission mechanism of N2O in China’s agricultural fields. This paper summarizes the development status of the facility vegetable plot in China, tracks the progress of soil N2O emission research in the facility vegetable plot, and makes a prospect of the research in this field.展开更多

The results showed that among the four vegetables,the yield levels of eggplant and celery varied slightly with the coefficient of variation between 7. 18% and 27. 63%,and the yield levels of tomato and cucumber varied greatly with the coefficient of variation between 33. 84% and 65. 15%. In terms of fertilization,the differences in N,P2O5 and K2O inputs in cucumber was the largest,and the maximum values of the nutrient inputs were 7. 95,8. 54 and 8. 77 times of the corresponding minimum values,respectively. The input amounts of N,P2O5 and K2O in tomato,cucumber and eggplant were 1. 47-2. 68,3. 93-7. 50 and1. 09-1. 51 times of the corresponding demands,respectively. The N and P2O5 inputs of celery exceeded the demands by 32. 00% and 79. 00%,respectively,while the K2O input was only 49. 00% of the demand. The ratios of N∶ P2O5∶ K2O input in the total application amount,organic fertilizer,base fertilizer and topdressing chemical fertilizer of facility vegetables were,respectively,1∶ 0. 84∶ 1. 02,1∶ 0. 84∶ 0. 80,1∶ 0. 99∶ 1. 05 and 1∶ 0. 77∶ 1. 25. The proportion of P2O5 input was too high,while the proportion of K2O input coming from the organic fertilizer was insufficient. The average proportions of organic fertilizer in N,P2O5 and K2O inputs were 43. 96%,43. 72% and 36. 99% respectively. The proportions of organic fertilizer in N and P2O5 inputs were reasonable,while that in K2O was lower.In N,P2O5 and K2O inputs of different vegetables,the proportions from organic fertilizer were reasonable in cucumber,higher in eggplant and lower in tomato and celery. The recommendations were presented in this paper that the inputs of N and P2O5 should be reduced,and the inputs of K2O and organic fertilizer should be increased,while farmers should choose fertilizer with low P2O5 and high K2O contents.展开更多

This study examined whether facility based sexual and reproductive health services met the needs of Ghanaian youth. Adopting the descriptive cross sectional design, 170 youths between the ages of 10 and 24 were sampled. A three-stage stratified random sampling technique was adopted. The results of the study are presented using descriptive statistics. The study established that a total of 55.8% (95/170) of the youth had utilized at least one or more of a sexual and reproductive health service in life time. However, only 45.2% (43/95) of youth used or accessed sexual and reproductive health services from a facility based setting. Facility based sexual and reproductive health service provided specifically for the youth is very limited. This calls for the provision of out-of health facility services located within the communities and at strategic places while ensuring confidentiality to the youth. More rigorous research is recommended on a national scale to examine youth preference for the type of facility based and out-of-facility based sexual and reproductive health services to meet the needs of young people.展开更多

The outcome of the RCM conducted for a typical EPF within the Niger Delta zone of Nigeria provides an indication of equipment whose failure can significantly affect operations at the production facility. These include the steam generation unit and the wellhead choke assembly, using a risk-based failure Criticality Analysis. Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA) was conducted for the identified critical equipment on a component basis. Each component of the equipment was analyzed to identify the failure modes, causes and the effect of the failure. The outcome of the FMEA analysis aided the development of a robust maintenance management strategy, which is based on an optimized mix of corrective, preventive and condition-based monitoring maintenance for the marginal oilfield EPF.展开更多

The basic research aims at achieving the balance between the conflicting impacts when the buildings with their infrastructure and water-green surrounding area are in such correlation that it fulfils acceptable living and heating standards and reduces the use of fossil fuels for cooling the urban areas (buildings). By implementing the remote detection it is possible to analyze and quantify the impact of over-building on the temperature rise in urban areas as well as the disturbance of the heating comfort and the increased demand for additional cooling. Now it is possible to create virtual models that will incorporate this newly-added urban vegetation into urban plans, depending on the evaporation potential that will affect the microclimate of the urban area. Such natural cooling can be measured and adapted and hence aimed at a potential decrease in areas with UHI emissions [2]. Suitable greenery in the summer season can be a useful improvement which concurrently enables and complements several cooling mechanisms—evaporative cooling and evapotranspiration, i.e. natural cooling systems. The remote detection shall establish and map the “healthy” and “unhealthy” greenery zones—that is the vegetation zones with the highest evaporative potential with the “cooling by evaporation” effect and also, by implementing the urban prediction model, it shall propose green infrastructure corridors aimed at a potential decrease in the Urban Heat Island Emission.展开更多
