At present, in China, the research about the urban sustainability construction is still in the exploratory stage. The ecological problems of the coastal area are more sensitive and complicated. In the background of global warming with serious ecological damage, this paper deeply researches on the main characteristics of urban sustainability and measures how to build urban sustainability. Throug...

We propose the world’s first general method of evaluating safety for human-care robots. In the case of a careless collision between a robot and a human, impact force and impact stress are chosen as evaluation measures, and a danger-index is defined to quantitatively evaluate the effectiveness of each safety strategy used for design and control. As a result, this proposed method allows us to ass...

The e-business ecosystem may be deviate from the equilibrium state in its development process. In this article the authors defined the e-business ecosystem health by combining ecological principles, and developed ecological indicators of e-business ecosystem health. The method of ecosystem health assessment (include biodiversity index method and index of biological integrity method) was introdu...

Functional diversity in plant communities is a key driver of ecosystem processes. The effective methods for measuring functional diversity are important in ecological studies. A new method based on neural network, self-organizing feature map (SOFM index), was put forward and described. A case application to the study of functional diversity of Phellodendron amurense communities in Xiaolongmen F...

The aim of this study was to generate an easy to use index to evaluate the ecological state of agricultural land from a sustainability perspective. We selected environmental indicators, such as the use of organic soil amendments (green manure) versus chemical fertilizers, plant biodiversity (including crop associations), variables which characterize soil conservation of conventional agricultura...

Monitoring of depth of anesthesia is an ongoing problem in anesthesia. In this paper, using SEF, BDR, BTR parameters which is calculated by power spectral density. EEG data were obtained from 7 patients (ASA I, II) during general anesthesia with sevoflurane. The anesthetic depth evaluation index algorism was embodied to obtain a quantified index with the scale of 0~100. Then quantified index co...
