Parametric Model of Steel Truss Arch Bridge
Design data of the bridge employed in this study is shown in Table 1.
Besides, the lateral reduction coefficient of multi-lane traffic loads should be considered [5].
In the analysis of bridge, dead load (dead weight of the whole bridge) and lateral reduction coefficient of multi-lane traffic loads are simultaneously considered, and the concentrated load Pk is applied at positions m, m, m and m (referred to as loading condition 1 to 4 ).

We will obtain reduction order linear equations by substitution of the data obtained from WNS into Eq.10.
Unknown nodal displacements and stress on the boundary can be obtained by solving reduction equations mentioned above.
Interpolating Boundary Element-free Method (IBEFM) is another method which can utilize measured data of WSN directly without dividing element on boundary of structure.

The content of CA exhibited almost no variation and that of TA and MA showed a slight reduction after one-day treatment and then they maintained a relative invariant value.
However, SA and LA presented a slow and gradual reduction trend during the clarification period.
The processing of the data (the first day) was calculated by regression analysis and analysis of variance (ANOVA) was allowed to establish a mathematical relation between pH, CA and TA, which described as equation (1), and also a mathematical relation between titratable acidity, CA, TA, SA and LA, which described as equation (2).
Fig.5, obtained by calculating the data originated from Fig.1, showed the average elimination ratio (AER) of organic acids on the first day.

P-y Curves Formula of Hard Clay : For the hard clay, the standard value of undrained shear strength is greater than 96Kpa, it is more brittle than soft clay and there have a lot of uncertain influence factors, the study is still immature at present, so the P-y curves should be plotted according to the test data of pile.
If there is no test data, the calculating formula can be as follows: , (2) Where P is the horizontal resistance of soil acting on the pile in x depth below ground (unit: kN/m); Pu [5] is the ultimate horizontal resistance of soil per unit length of the pile side(unit: kN/m); Y is the lateral deformation of pile in x depth below ground (unit: mm); Y50 is the lateral deformation of pile when the resistance of soil gets to half of its ultimate value (unit: mm), the formula is ; is the compression coefficient of the foundation soil (unit: Mpa-1); B is the width or diameter of single pile (unit: m).
Response of pile group: The reduction factor of response of pile group is described as [4,5]: or (5) Where S is the space between the piles, B is the width or diameter of single pile, x is the depth of calculational point from ground, Y is the lateral deformation of pile in x depth below ground; Y50 is the lateral deformation of pile when the resistance of soil gets to half of its ultimate value.
(2) The method proposed in this paper can be applied to pile groups by the only consideration of the reduction factor of response of pile group.

The six factors namely (1) energy consumption, (2) machining costs, (3) waste reduction, (4) environmental friendliness, (5) operational safety and (6) personnel health are particularly important in making a manufacturing process sustainable [5].
As for Fuzzy Information Axiom approach, triangular fuzzy number (TFN) can be used to express data in linguistic terms when system and design ranges happen to be stated linguistically.
To show a more realistic application, empirical data collected from the experiments are adopted in this study.

A major issue with the reduced operating temperature is the decrease in catalytic activity of the cathode for oxygen reduction.
The testing data were collected at 10 ℃ interval.
Correspondingly, the TG curve reveals an obvious weight loss (5.2%) which may be associated with the release of the lattice oxygen originating from the reduction of Co4+, the decomposition of the carbonates and the formation of LaFeO3-based oxide.
The almost pure perovskite structure were obtained after sintered at 1200℃ for 4h for synthesized samples comparing the data from XRD with normal feature diffraction lines of LaFeO3.

Energy saving and emission reduction has become one of China's basic state policies [1].
According to the data provided in the carbon footprint mid-term calculation report for wollastonite-based toilets issued by SGS, the carbon emission of a 43kg wollastonite-based toilet is equal to 72.49kg CO2, then it could figure out that while producing 1t wollastonite-based product, it generates 1.6858t carbon emission.
It’s known that it consumes 4,798kW·h electric power to prepare 1.5t calcium sulfate hemihydrate and upon the data provided by NDRC, it could figure out that the coal consumption for preparing 1.5t calcium sulfate hemihydrate is about 1.59933t (=4798÷3000≈1.59933t).

Citizens should improve environmental consciousness, have and convey low-carbon philosophy of life and use environmental products consciously to contribute to low carbon and emission reduction.
As wastes, products should pay attention to environmental sustainability of design of material selection and be “reduction, recovery and regeneration”.
Management method of product materials based on Cybernetics 4.1 Establish material data base.Material date base should be established with the help of modern technical platform of network and various properties, applicable scope and cases should be elaborated according to category of conventional materials, special materials and green materials to make people find required knowledge rapidly and realize popularization, share, balance and constant updating of material knowledge.
So far, there aren’t complete and systematic books or data base to present every material.
