  • Patent number: 12204528
    Abstract: A system receives a source database language statement according to a first dialect, determines a pattern of the source database language statement, the pattern comprising an abstract representation of the source database language statement, and checks whether the determined pattern is present in a cache of translations between patterns according to the first dialect and corresponding patterns according to a second dialect different from the first dialect. In response to the determined pattern being present in the cache of translations, the system converts, using a corresponding translation in the cache of translations, the source database language statement according to the first dialect to a respective target database language statement according to the second dialect.

  • Publication number: 20240386236
    Abstract: A flow field identification method of artificial intelligence fish simulation system uses cluster server parallel sampling to obtain continuous flow field time series information data. After preprocessing the data, the method uses the lateral line perceptron of recurrent neural network or convolutional neural network based on long time series to continuously acquire data, train and iterate. Finally, the method can identify the flow field sequence data signal with time series property, wherein, the perceived flow field signals include but are not limited to velocity, pressure and vorticity, and the experimental results are continuously filled into the experimental database, which will have the effect of memory transplantation on the artificial fish and reduce the occurrence of repetitive errors. The method identifies the flow field of an artificial intelligence fish simulation system, which can fully reflect the characteristics of the flow field from the aspects of amplitude, frequency, and wavelength.

  • Publication number: 20240311535
    Abstract: The invention introduces a hydrodynamic free-surface Lattice Boltzmann (LB) simulation method and system, along with a storage medium. Initial parameters for a designated water body are obtained and fed into a pre-established three-dimensional hydrodynamic free-surface LB model for simulation calculations. The outcome includes precise data on the free water surface, flow velocity, and pressure of the target water body over time and space, generating a detailed three-dimensional spatial distribution map. The method enhances the second-order accuracy of the force term within the single-phase free-surface LB model. By integrating the single-phase free-surface LB model with surface tension and the SGS large eddy model, it achieves an efficient and accurate three-dimensional simulation of the target water body's free water surface, flow field, and pressure.
