Output-Only Modal Parameter Recursive Estimation of Time-Varying Structures via a Kernel Ridge Regression FS-TARMA Approach by Zhi-Sai Ma, Li Liu, Si-Da Zhou, Lei Yu

“…This paper focuses on the problem of output-only modal parameter recursive estimation of time-varying structures based upon parameterized representations of the time-dependent autoregressive moving average (TARMA). A kernel ridge regression functional series TARMA (FS-TARMA) recursive identification scheme is proposed and subsequently employed for the modal parameter estimation of a numerical three-degree-of-freedom time-varying structural system and a laboratory time-varying structure consisting of a simply supported beam and a moving mass sliding on it. …”

Spatial Differentiation of Ecological Stoichiometry of Nitrogen and Phosphorus in Mollic Epipedon of China by Huishi Du

“…Taking the typical mollic epipedon area in Northeast China as study area, using the geostatistical model and 3S technology (Remote Sensing, RS; Geography information systems, GIS; and Global positioning systems, GPS), the spatial variation and influencing factors of N and P ecological stoichiometry in the surface soil (0-20 cm) were studied with 1,057 samples by five-point soil sampling method. The outcomes of the study showed that the average total nitrogen (TN), total phosphorus (TP), and N/P ratio were 1.88 g/kg, 0.276 g/kg, and 6.81, respectively. …”
