The symposium follows the style of Gordon Research Conferences. This major event is organized by the International Center for Applied Mechanics, State Key Laboratory for Strength and Vibration of Mechanical Structures(XJTU, China); NTNU Nanomechanical Lab (NTNU, Norway); International Association of Applied Mechanics; The Association for Computational Mechanics (Singapore). The symposium topics cover most disciplines on the conventional subjects of solid mechanics and fluid mechanics, as well as current topics associated with applied mechanics, which include inter-disciplinary areas such as nanomechanics, biomechanics, mechanics of advanced materials and soft matter, computational mechanics and numerous other emerging areas. This symposium aims to track and document the recent progress made in all these areas. Hailing from Australia, Canada, China, England, Hong Kong (China), Norway and Singapore, distinguished scientists, academics and researchers from over 30 institutions will gather in Trondheim to present their current cutting-edge research work, and preview the latest developments in the many different topics on offer. In particular, we also eagerly look forward to meeting up with old and new colleagues. The works of about 55 researchers, all active scientists in applied mechanics who have done great research in their fields, are included in the proceedings. The contributors shared their current research results in theoretical, computational, and experimental approaches to applied mechanics. Above all, we want to thank you all for your participation and contribution to the symposium and express our best wishes for a fruitful scientific, technical and personal experience during the four days of the meeting. Last but not least, we wish you a most enjoyable stay in Trondheim, Norway!

In the courses,there is not characteristics, groundwater heads vary with the conditions. only the known information but also uncertain The prediction of groundwater level is one of the main work of hydraulic government, which is predicted based on the information, therefore, it can be seen as one gray system. history data and the relative influence factors. Therefore, Groundwater trends are related to atmosphere prediction precision depends on the accuracy of history precipitation. There is obvious seasonality variation of data. Data mining has provided a new method for analyzing atmosphere precipitation. Therefore, the groundwater massive, complex and noisy data. According to the level is changed by the seasons and periods. In this case, complexity and ambiguity of groundwater system, a new we needed to use the original data of the groundwater in integration of grey with neural network model is built to order to predict the groundwater level. In this paper, we forecast groundwater heads, which were used to judge calculated the cycle groundwater, trend groundwater, and whether future groundwater heads were extraordinarily random groundwater separately after isolating the three over the history range or not.

  • An Analysis of the Death Mystery of Huo Qubing, a Famous Cavalry General in the Western Han Dynasty
    Journal of Frontiers of Society, Science and Technology DOI: 10.23977/jfsst.2021.010410 Clausius Scientific Press, Canada Volume 1, Number 4, 2021 An Analysis of the Death Mystery of Huo Qubing, a Famous Cavalry General in the Western Han Dynasty Liu Jifeng, Chen Mingzhi Shandong Maritime Vocational College, Weifang, 261000, Shandong, China Keywords: Huo qubing, Myth, Mysterious death Abstract: Throughout his whole lifetime, Huo Qubing created a myth of ancient war, and left an indelible mark in history. But, pitifully, he suddenly died during young age. His whole life was very short, and it seemed that Huo was born for war and died at the end of war. Although he implemented his great words and aspirations “What could be applied to get married, since the Huns haven’t been eliminated?”, and had no regrets for life, still, his mysterious death caused endless questions and intriguing reveries for later generations. 1. Introduction Huo Qubing, with a humble origin, was born in 140 B.C. in a single-parent family in Pingyang, Hedong County, which belongs to Linfen City, Shanxi Province now. He was an illegitimate child of Wei Shaoer, a female slave of Princess Pingyang Mansion, and Huo Zhongru, an inferior official. Also, he was a nephew-in-mother of Wei Qing, who was General-in-chief Serving as Commander-in-chief in the Western Han Dynasty. Huo Qubing was greatly influenced by his uncle Wei Qing. He was a famous military strategist and national hero during the period of Emperor Wudi of the Western Han Dynasty. He was fond of horse-riding and archery.
