1.1 This specification covers wrought carbon steel sleeve type pipe couplings suitable for joining carbon steel pipes.

1.2 Type I couplings are intended for use on all schedules of pipe where the pipe wall thickness does not exceed the wall thickness of standard weight pipe. Type II coupl...

Numerical methods for Differential-Algebraic systems with discontinuous right-hand sides is discussed. A class of continuous Rosenbrock methods are constructed, and numerical experiments show that the continuous Rosenbrock methods are effective. Applying the methods, a fast and high-precision numeri...

Three forecasting models are set up: the auto-regressive moving average model, the grey forecasting model for the rate of qualified products Pt, and the grey forecasting model for time intervals of the quality catastrophes. Then a combined forewarning system for the quality of products is establishe...

A new fusion tracking algorithm is presented to track maneuvering target in three-dimensional (3D) space with bearings-only measurements. With the introduction of passive location and interacting multiple model (IMM) algorithm based on multirate model, the high-rate sequence measurements of two sens...

Evidence theory has been widely used in the information fusion for its effectiveness of the uncertainty reasoning. However, the classical DS evidence theory involves counter-intuitive behaviors when the high conflict information exists. Based on the analysis of some modified methods, Assigning the w...
