The worldwide rise of shared bicycle use has changed the way people travel. Here we analyze shared bicycle use from the perspective of the theory of planned behavior, and propose a model to investigate factors influencing shared bicycle usage in China. A total of 211 shared bicycle users selected from 28 provinces throughout China completed a self-reported survey. Structural equation modelling (SEM) was used to delineate the pathway from shared bicycle usage. The SEM model demonstrated that: (1) shared bicycle use intention was significantly associated with four variables, namely travel attitude(β = 0.491, t = 24.569), social norms(β = 0.149, t = 6.771), travel habits(β = 0.146, t = 7.226) and perceived behavioral control (β = 0.190, t = 11.110); (2) shared bicycle use behavior was significantly affected by shared bicycle use intention(β = 0.406, t = 15.936), and also by travel habits(β = 0.320, t = 11.921); (3) shared bicycle use behavior was also affected by demographic variables (gender, age) and situational factors (distance). The conclusions of this study provide useful data for operators of bicycle services and government policy makers.
As wind power integration is scaled up year by year, the problem of abandoned wind electricity has become increasingly severe, and thus caused serious waste of energy. To solve the problem of abandoned wind electricity, this paper tries to heat power plant’s back water in electric boiler to absorb abandoned wind electricity. Taking a thermal power plant for example, the application of electric boiler in backwater system can bring great economic benefits and environmental benefits, and provide a reasonable way and solution for the use of abandoned wind electricity.
Abstract. College students' Innovation and Entrepreneurship Education is not only the need of times, economic and social development, but also the trend and goal of higher education reform in China. However, nowadays there are still some problems in the implementation process of Innovation and Entrepreneurship Education in colleges and universities such as insufficient understanding, imperfection of education system, weak teachers, poor education atmosphere and so on. This article analyzes the above issues and proposes countermeasures and suggestions for improving innovation and entrepreneurship education in colleges and universities.
Since low flexibility and non-dynamic problems exit in the process of software system integration, a MultiAgent System frame model which introduces the agent techniques into system integration domain is proposed for problem solving. Based on the MAS frame model, independent software units are wrapped to agents, and their integration logic is described by the script language. Through explaining the file, the collaboration of multi-agent is under control. Dialogue Expansion Contract Net Protocol is used for the cooperation when agent cannot solve problems by itself. In order to achieve the aim of flexible and dynamic integration, new wrapped agents can be added into MAS dynamically and the edited script can be explained by the parser. Finally, the Agent-based System Integration Tools is built upon this frame model, and an application of this model about the Border and Coast Defense System is presented, which verifies the rationality, feasibility and efficiency.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
