Abstract: Provided are methods and associated compositions directed to a structural bonding adhesive. The structural bonding adhesive is made by mixing a curable composition comprising a mixture of a first curable resin and a second curable resin to provide an uncured adhesive. The uncured adhesive is irradiated by a first actinic light source to polymerize the first curable resin without polymerizing the second curable resin to provide a partially cured adhesive. The partially cured adhesive is a pressure-sensitive adhesive that displays cold flow creep recovery under ambient conditions and is capable of being fully cured by irradiating the partially cured adhesive using a second actinic light source that is different from the first actinic light source to polymerize the second curable resin.

Abstract: Methods of bonding together substrates that do not require use of primers, mixing, fixturing, or autoclaving. These methods can include the steps of disposing an adhesive layer on a bonding surface of either substrate, the adhesive layer comprising a curable composition that is dimensionally stable at ambient conditions; either before or after disposing the adhesive layer on the bonding surface, irradiating the adhesive layer with ultraviolet radiation to initiate curing of the curable composition; placing one substrate so as to be bonded to the other substrate by the adhesive layer; and allowing the adhesive layer to cure.

Abstract: A method for recognizing multi-dimensional anomalous urban traffic events based on a ternary Gaussian mixture model includes: reading a data sample of urban road traffic events; randomly dividing the data sample into a first subsample and a second subsample; performing modeling based on the first subsample by using the ternary Gaussian mixture model to obtain a second ternary Gaussian mixture model to calculate a distribution probability p of any sample point; clustering the second subsample, recognizing an outlier in the second subsample, and labeling the outlier and a normal point to obtain a labeled subsample; calculating the labeled subsample to obtain the distribution probability p corresponding to each sample point in the labeled subsample; when a new traffic event occurs, obtaining features of three dimensions of the new traffic event, calculating a distribution probability p by using the second model, and recognizing the new traffic event as anomalous if p<t-score.

Abstract: A method for extracting road capacity based on traffic big data includes the following steps: selecting a specific traffic flow model; reading massive road lane traffic flow parameters; calibrating a model parameter of the selected traffic flow model by using the road lane traffic flow parameters read in the previous step; and fitting the calibrated model parameter to obtain a fitted traffic flow model. The present invention solves the problems that traditional methods for traffic capacity calibration have a heavy workload, inadequate samples and unreliable results due to their reliance on manual information acquisition, thereby providing support for automatic, long-term, large-scale and precise acquisition of the capacity.
