Abstract: A foldable windproof unit, a large-span windproof net structure thereof, and a windproof method are disclosed. The foldable windproof unit comprises a flexible windproof net, towers arranged at intervals, and a load-bearing rope erected on the two towers. The tower on one side is provided with a horizontal pulley assembly, and the tower on the other side is provided with two vertical pulleys. The top edge of the flexible windproof net is slidably connected to the load-bearing rope by means of a plurality of hanging structures. The foldable windproof unit further comprises a traction rope, the traction rope is arranged on the horizontal pulley assembly in a sleeving manner, and the two free ends of the traction rope extend to respectively bypass the two vertical pulleys and are connected to winding mechanism. The hanging structure close to the tower on one side is fixedly connected to the traction rope.

Abstract: The disclosure generally pertains to systems and methods for predicting energy consumption in vehicles. In an example method, a predicted energy consumption model associated with a vehicle may be determined. Sensor data associated with the vehicle may be received via a plurality of sensors associated with the vehicle. A driver-based energy consumption model associated with the vehicle may then be determined based at least in part on the sensor data. An estimated energy consumption model associated with the vehicle may then be determined based at least in part on the predicted energy consumption model and the driver-based energy consumption model. A vehicle charging prediction model may then be determined based at least in part on the estimated energy consumption model.

Abstract: Disclosed are an aluminum-scandium alloy target with high scandium content and a preparation method thereof. The method comprises: preparing aluminum and scandium; melting the scandium; mixing the aluminum into the scandium, smelting and cooling to obtain an aluminum-scandium alloy through a plurality of cycles; ball-milling the alloy to obtain alloy powder and drying in vacuum, then pre-pressing and sintering in vacuum to obtain an aluminum-scandium alloy target billet; performing a thermal deformation process on the target billet to obtain the target, comprising hot forging, hot rolling and finish machining. In the present disclosure, the target has more uniform structure and chemical composition, higher relative density (up to 99.0% or more), finer grain size and higher ductility; reduce defects of shrinkage cavity and porosity, save material cost, solve problem of alloys with high brittleness, unable to process targets, meeting the requirements on wiring materials for large-scale integrated circuits.

Abstract: A graphical indicator is provided. The graphical indicator includes a plurality of header blocks and a plurality content blocks. The header blocks include N first header blocks and (M?1) second header blocks. Each of the content blocks has a data micro-graphic. The N first header blocks are disposed at a first row of an indicator matrix. Each of the (M?1) second header blocks is disposed at (M?1) rows other than the first row of the indicator matrix. Each of the N first header blocks has a header micro-graphic. Furthermore, one or more target second header blocks in the (M?1) second header blocks do not have the header micro-graphic, and each of a plurality of remaining second header blocks other than the one or more target second header blocks in the (M?1) second header blocks has the header micro-graphic.

Abstract: A method, system, and device for computer control of access to a storage unit. The computer monitors the physical environment inside the storage unit, assists in placing and retrieving desired articles of clothing, and provides a method of visualizing possible ensembles without the need to physically pull out the individual items. Remote access to the database is provided and optional voice control for blind users.

Abstract: A mutant virus is provided which contains a mutation at a phosphorylation site in one or more of the proteins of the virus, which mutation causes the virus to be attenuated, and therefore, an improved vaccine composition can be produced therewith. The invention also relates to vaccine compositions which contain the mutant virus, as well as to methods of inducing an immune response, and of protecting mammals from infection by rabies virus. Also included in the invention are methods of producing the mutant virus and mutant viral proteins, including producing the mutant virus in a host cell which produces or even overproduces a wild-type counterpart of the mutant viral protein, which complements the other viral proteins such that production of the mutant viral particle is optimized.
