  • Patent number: 11414882
    Abstract: The present invention provides a steel structure cooling tower, including a truss system, a hyperbolic enclosure plate system and an opening-closing system. Hoop trusses and meridional trusses are connected crisscross to form a force transfer structure of the steel structure cooling tower, thereby improving the overall stability of a tower body of the cooling tower and reducing the wind pressure on the tower body. An enclosure plate is mounted on the hoop truss by an enclosure plate bracket assembly, the opening-closing system is laid on the hoop truss, and a wind and rain sensor is installed on a hoop truss on the top of the tower body of the cooling tower. When typhoon rain exceeds a limiting value, an opening-closing posture of the hyperbolic enclosure plate is adjusted, so that the steel structure cooling tower can open the enclosure plate to reduce a wind load acting on the tower body.

  • Patent number: 11275883
    Abstract: This application discloses a computing system implementing a parasitic extraction tool to generate a parasitic model from physical design layout of an integrated circuit. The computing system also can implement a machine-learning classifier that, when trained with a training data set, can classify the physical design layout based on physical or electrical characteristics associated with the physical design layout, and can utilize the classification to select a set of scaling coefficients. The computing system can apply the selected set of the scaling coefficients to adjust coupling capacitances in the parasitic model and generate a parasitic netlist for the physical design layout. The computing system can generate the training data set by determining sets of the scaling coefficients from the test physical design layouts and labeling the test physical design layouts with the sets of the scaling coefficients.
