Theoretical Study on Internal Forces of Primary Support of Tunnel by considering Time Effect by Zhuangzhi Yang, Yuqing Wang, Lin Song, Xinyu Wang

“…The internal force of the primary support decreased to different extents within 2 days after the primary support was applied and then gradually increased over time. Considering the situationality and changeability of the tunnel construction process, the analytical solution for the primary support internal forces of a multicenter arch tunnel proposed in this paper has a strong feasibility in tunnel construction. …”

Business or Security? Goals and Decision-Making Inside the French Oil Policy of the 1920s by I. E. Magadeev

“…The article concludes that the strategic and economic reasons were interwoven inside the French oil policy. Though the French authorities perceived the growing strategic importance of oil sharply, they were not prepared to follow the clear étatist economic policy and did not try to make a radical change of the established rules of oil policy both inside the Third Republic and in the relations with “Standard Oil” and “Royal Dutch-Shell.”…”

An adjustment method for electricity sales forecasting result considering the effects of spring festival by Jian LIU, Jiakui ZHAO, Yuze CHEN, Xuemin FANG, Yuxi LIU, Shulong WANG, Yan CHEN, Hong OUYANG

“…The effects of Spring Festival on electricity sales of different trades were considered and an adjustment method for electricity sales forecasting result was proposed.Firstly,the month-quarter ratio of historical electricity sales in each trade of every month in the first quarter and the distance between Spring Festival and the first day of every month in the first quarter was used to create a functional relationship.Then,the distance between Spring Festival and the first day of every month in the first quarter of the target year was used as input and the predicted month-quarter ratio of electricity sales of each trade of every month in the first quarter of the target year was calculated according to the functional relationship.The adjusted electricity sales forecasting result can then be computed by using the predicted month-quarter ratio and the electricity sales forecasting of each trade of every month in the first quarter of the target year before adjustment.The adjustment result shows that the proposed method can effectively lower the error of electricity sales forecasting in the first quarter.…”
