As some of the richest sources of natural antioxidants, small berry fruits have attractive colors and special tastes, with recognized benefits for human health. However, sour tastes in small berry juices result in a poor flavor and low acceptance among consumers, greatly limiting their marketability. Among the most commonly used deacidification methods, chemical deacidification methods can neutralize fruit juice via the addition of a deacidification agent, while physical deacidification methods include freezing deacidification, ion-exchange resin deacidification, electrodialysis deacidification, and chitosan deacidification. All of these methods can markedly improve the pH of fruit juice, but they introduce new substances into the juice that may have an influence on its color, taste, and stability. Biological deacidification can effectively remove malic acid from fruit juice, reducing the content from 15 g/L to 3 g/L; additionally, it maintains the taste and stability of the juice. Therefore, it is widely applied for fruit juice deacidification. On this basis, some compound deacidification technologies have also emerged, but they also present problems such as high costs and complicated working procedures. This review of deacidification methods for small berry juice provides a foundation for the industrial development of such juices. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper addresses the question of how the ups and downs in the development of artificial intelligence (AI) since its inception can be explained. It focuses on the development of artificial intelligence in Germany since the 1970s, and particularly on its current dynamics. An assumption is made that a mere reference to rapid advances in information technologies and the various methods and concepts of artificial intelligence in recent decades cannot adequately explain these dynamics, because from a social science perspective, this is an oversimplified, technology-centred explanation. Drawing on ideas from social scientific innovation research, the hypothesis is rather that artificial intelligence should be understood as a "promising technology". Its various stages of development have always been driven by technological promises about its special powers and capabilities when applied to solving economic and societal challenges.

[Objective] The cover development design for urban rail transit parking lot is very complicated, requiring more new column grids. Moreover, after the cover development, the omnidirectional antenna set up on the roof of the complex building cannot cover the ground area of the parking lot. In order to effectively realize the wireless communication coverage of the parking lot, it is necessary to study the related schemes and key technologies. [Method] Based on the systematic engineering design of TETRA (terrestrial trunked radio) communication system for the parking lot of Textile City Station on Xi’an Metro Line 6 and in view of the difficulties of wireless communication coverage engineering, the frequency planning and allocation scheme of wireless communication system is proposed. A wireless communication coverage scheme is proposed for the parking lot, switch area, access sections and roads in the non-cover area of the parking lot. [Result & Conclusion] FA (frequency allocation) frequency group for wireless communication coverage is adopted for the parking lot of Textile City Station, which ensures frequency interval and avoids same frequency interference. The public security wireless communication system is introduced into the above parking lot, and the scheme of signal route coverage combined with the dedicated wireless communication system is adopted. Directional antenna is used as the coverage mode for the covered parking area to replace the omnidirectional antenna on the roof. Antenna correlation is used for the depot, antenna reinforcement for the throat area, and antenna coverage for U-shaped slot to solve the cross-zone switching , and directional antennas are adopted to cover the surrounding roads by utilizing building sidewalls or columns. The proposed wireless system coverage scheme for the cover development parking lot not only reduces the system interference and the impact on the existing operation, but also effectively solves the problem of the wireless communication coverage for the cover development parking lot, saving the project investment.

China has made notable advancements in the intelligent construction of coal mines. However, for longwall top coal caving (LTCC) mining faces, a key obstacle impeding the intelligent transition of the coal-cutting process is automated control. This paper focuses on the aforementioned issue and comprehensively considers the pre-, intra-, and post-coal-caving stages. In this work, diverse detection and monitoring technologies are integrated at various stages through a computer platform, facilitating the construction of an automated coal caving control system with self-perception, self-learning, self-decision-making, and self-execution capabilities. Key technologies include ground-penetrating radar-based top coal thickness detection, inertial navigation-based shearer positioning, tail beam vibration-based identification of coal and gangue, and magnetostrictive sensor-based monitoring of the tail beam and insert plate attitude. In this study, the 12309 working face of the Wangjialing Coal Mine was experimentally validated, and the efficacy of the aforementioned key technologies was assessed. The results demonstrated that the control requirements for automated coal caving are satisfied by the maximum errors. Automatic regulation of coal caving was realized through the implementation of this system, thereby facilitating initiation and cessation and yielding promising experimental outcomes. Overall, this system offers practical insights for intelligent construction in current LTCC mining faces and the sustainable development of coal resources. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The concept of precision forestry has gained much recognition in the industry, leading to the high demand for UAV technology. A hot issue is to effectively synergize the UAV technology with the development needs of modern forestry, in order to achieve the precise quality and sustainable forest. This review was focused on the background and current status of UAV technology in the field of precision forestry. A combination of bibliometric analysis and case study was employed to provide an in-depth summary of the application of UAV technology in various areas of precision forestry, including forest resources investigation and monitoring, early warning of forest pests and diseases, forest fire prevention and control, forestry plant protection, and forestry management and law enforcement. The advantages and limitations of UAV technology were objectively analyzed in these areas. The study results indicate that the UAV technology made significant progress in the field of precision forestry, primarily driven by the demands of forestry practitioners. Traditional operations can be expected to update and improve the key UAV technologies. The UAV was used to provide high-resolution image data support for the forest resources survey and monitoring, enabling the efficient extraction of forest stand factors. In terms of early warning of forest pests and diseases, UAV was utilized to accurately identify the various pests and diseases, and then delineate the infected forest areas. In forest fire prevention and control, the UAV was used to predict and monitor the forest fires, providing for the latest news for firefighting. In forestry plant protection, the UAV applications in pesticide application, irrigation, and seeding effectively reduced resource wastage. In forestry management and law enforcement, the UAV was used to offer a safer way to monitor the forest ecosystems, prevent wildlife, and combat illegal activities. Some challenges were also given to the UAV technology in the implementation of precision forestry. These challenges mainly included the inadequate battery capacity of UAVs, high prices of UAV sensors, difficulties in fusing multi-source data, limited clustering and intelligent capabilities of UAVs, as well as the urgent improvement in the UAV-related laws and regulations. In conclusion, this finding can provide valuable insights into the application of UAV technology in precision forestry. Deep integration of UAV technology can also be further strengthened for the entry needs in the future, in order to promote the rapid and sustainable development in precision forestry.

A spiral steel silo has become the preferred choice for building steel silos because of its short construction period, low cost, and high strength. Owing to the harsh outdoor welding conditions of the spiral steel silo and the high risk of manual welding, in this paper, an automatic welding robot is proposed, and its key technology is studied. The welding process parameters consisted of welding voltage, current, and the distance between the conductive nozzle and the base material, which were determined through experiments. The key technology of seam tracking on the roof of a spiral steel silo was studied. Finally, a weld bead tracking experiment and prototype welding experiment were carried out. The results suggest that the prototype can track the weld bead stably and accurately, and the welding effect can meet welding process requirements when the welding current is 200 A, the voltage is 20 V, and the distance between the welding nozzle and the base material is 12 mm.

[Introduction] As a zero-carbon fuel, ammonia is easy to achieve safe and low-cost transportation and thus is considered to be an ideal energy source with the same development potential as hydrogen energy. Understanding the development status of core technologies in each link of the ammonia energy industry chain will help grasp the development prospects and direction of the ammonia energy industry. [Method] By investigating the core technologies and application scenarios involved in key links (including preparation, storage, transportation, and utilization) of the ammonia energy industry chain and analyzing the problems faced by the industry development, this study put forward corresponding development suggestions. [Result] Although the traditional Haber process for ammonia synthesis is very mature, the green transition of ammonia production can be achieved via green hydrogen feedstock substitution or adoption of new ammonia synthesis technologies such as photocatalysis, electrocatalysis, bioenzyme catalysis, and plasma drive. The storage and transportation of green ammonia can rely on the traditional synthetic ammonia infrastructure as well as supply chain, and the construction of supporting facilities such as ammonia fuel filling stations should be also strengthened. Ammonia combustion, ammonia fuel cells, ammonia energy storage and other ammonia energy utilization technologies need to be continously researched and developed as well as explored for application demonstration. [Conclusion] The development of green ammonia energy industry is in line with the requirements of building a clean, low-carbon, safe and efficient green energy system in China, and it has a positive impact on our country's energy security. However, the industrialization promotion of ammonia energy still faces many challenges and requires reasonable planning as well as layout and support from policy, finance, innovation platforms and standard system.

A model of the inter-story isolation structure incorporating SSI was developed, and one-dimensional, two-dimensional, and three-dimensional ground motions were applied to compare the seismic response under different input conditions. A three-dimensional isolation system was introduced and compared with traditional horizontal isolation structures to address excessive tensile and compressive stresses on the isolation structure during three-dimensional ground motion. The results demonstrate that the seismic response to three-dimensional earthquakes surpasses one-dimensional and two-dimensional inputs. Furthermore, adding a three-dimensional isolation structure effectively isolates vertical ground motion and reduces structural seismic response. Moreover, it minimizes soil stresses on the foundation compared to traditional horizontal isolation structure, enhancing foundation stability. This study will provide theoretical value and practical guidance for the research on key technology of SSI base story isolation structure response in Karst Plateau 3D Seismic zone.

The oblique detonation engine (ODE) utilizes standing oblique detonation wave (ODW) to efficiently convert the chemical energy of fuel into mechanical energy in hypersonic flow, greatly improving the upper limit of the air-breathing flight regime, which holds significant development potential and practical value. This paper provides an overview of the development of ODE in the early, middle, and recent stages. Then, the current research status on oblique detonation combustion and engines are summarized. Furthermore, the progress made worldwide in three areas, oblique detonation combustion organization, fuel injection mixing, and overall performance with internal flow design, are reviewed from the perspective of engine design. Finally, the technique challenges and future key focus directions in five aspects, including integrated design of internal and external flow under overall constraints, fuel injection and mixing in hypersonic flow, stable combustion organization under complex inflow conditions, high thermal load protection, and experimental conditions under ultra-high speed conditions are analyzed, aiming to provide reference for future in-depth technological breakthroughs and applications.
