L130 Series Software

[Norine Wiltshire]

TheInternational L series was introduced by International Harvester in fall 1949 as the replacement for the KB series and were available as everything from light pickup trucks and delivery vehicles to full-size tractor-trailers. Electric wipers, a radio, and a clock were optional.[1] International would continue to produce the line until 1953 when it was replaced by the R series.

Heavier versions such as the L-150 to L-180 models had taller bodywork to accommodate a bigger engine, beefier chassis, and larger wheels. To hide this in appearance, they receive an extra, full-width chrome grille bar underneath the other two and the headlights. The L-185-L210 models had a longer, narrower hood and taller grille than all the smaller models, surrounded by oversized fenders. These trucks were a different look although they have the same cab as the smaller trucks.Of the pickup-type bodies, these were available in 6 ft and 8 ft lengths. On L-130 models, a 9-1/2 ft long pickup bed of same design was available and accommodated dual rear wheels. Two different styles of IH factory flatbeds with removable sides were also available for sizes up to L-180. Other bodies were designed around the basic truck chassis of each series, such as the "Metro" LM120-122 and LM150-152, the "bread trucks" used by bakeries or laundries for example. They hardly resembled the L-Line. The LB-140 Milk Delivery truck was also an oddity with its looks and revolutionary semi-automatic clutch, however it had the L-line face. The LC160-162 and LC180-182 cab-over trucks, or cab-forwards" as they were then called, were another oddity of their own.

To further bolster its presence alongside IH's own massive line of heavy construction equipment and meet highway weight limits, the LF-170, LF-190, and LF-210 series was built. These were tandem-axle 6x4 drivetrain trucks for hauling heavier loads than their 4x2 counterparts. For example, the GVW of a L-194 is 25,500 vs the 38,000 of the LF-194.

The DCR L130-F5 (maximum drilling diameter: 165mm) uses a clean engine that complies with emission regulations (EPA Tier 4 Final / EU Stage V). The Super Economy Mode PLUS cutting-edge fuel-saving technology used on the new drill allows the operator to select the engine speed during drilling operations according to rock quality, reducing fuel consumption while maintaining drilling performance. In addition, a compressor with powerful flushing capability and a high-performance dust collector provides high drilling capacity and reduced cycle time. The conventional frame and boom shape have been revised to simplify transportation and maintenance operations.

The environmentally friendly, clean engine complies with market-specific emission regulations and achieves the highest level of low-emission components with significantly reduced PM (particle compounds) and NOx (nitrogen oxides) emissions.

The iMS monitor screen allows selection of the engine speed during drilling from three levels (1600, 1800, and 2000 min-1), and by selecting the appropriate engine speed according to the rock quality, the Super Economy Mode, the most advanced fuel-saving technology, contributes to improved fuel efficiency while maintaining drilling performance. In addition, a new system with New Auto Throttle Control has been added to further reduce fuel consumption.

Equipped with a high-pressure, large-capacity air compressor with a standard discharge pressure of 2.5MPa and a standard discharge volume of 24.3m3/min (at engine speed of 1,800 min-1) and a maximum discharge pressure of 2.3MPa and a maximum discharge volume of 27.0m3/min (at engine speed of 2,000 min-1). The combination of a high-performance dust collector with a large air volume (75m3/min) and a pre-cleaner as standard equipment provides excellent drilling performance.

Powerful flushing and a high-performance dust collector significantly reduce residual cuttings and ensure shorter cycle time. The suction hood slides up and down, allowing the operator to check the collaring and to easily treat the mouth of the hole.

The rig's cab meets ROPS/FOPS specifications and outside air induction air conditioners are standard equipment to maintain a comfortable indoor environment. Its airtightness allows for comfortable work under a variety of operating conditions. A finger control switch-type travelling lever is adopted, enabling travelling operation in a natural working posture and reducing fatigue in work. While there is also a centralised display of machine operating and maintenance information on a 7in colour LCD panel (iMS Monitor). When an abnormality is detected, it is shown on the display to shorten troubleshooting time.

A semi-automatic rod changer is equipped to continuously perform a series of complex operations from addition to collection of rods by simply pulling down one-rod changer control lever in one direction. Speedy movements shorten the cycle time. In addition, the use of a rotary rack system that allows free selection of rods makes it possible to equalise rod life.

Feature papers represent the most advanced research with significant potential for high impact in the field. A Feature Paper should be a substantial original Article that involves several techniques or approaches, provides an outlook for future research directions and describes possible research applications.

The authors propose a transformer-based model, FusFormer, that can be applied to the practical task of multivariable times series forecasting. It is shown that the model outperforms existing forecasting approaches. The case study introduces Mooney viscosity, a parameter that is tracked during the process of rubber refining and which is generally less known than most of the time series used to illustrate similar models. That makes the work more interesting.

The authors present FusFormer, a Transformer-based model to forecast time series data with the use of Mooney viscosity prediction as a case study. Performance analysis was carried out to show the effectiveness of the model in producing state-of-the-art forecasting results. This is an interesting work with some contributions. However, there are few issues that need clarification.

Authors proposed an interesting method for multivariate time series prediction based on Mooney Viscosity method. The methodology is, in general, well described and results are well illustrated. The work has merit to be published in Entropy journal. However, I have some questions and suggestions to be addressed by the authors:

2. About the structure, authors used section 1 for Introduction. However, the next section not have numbers. "Related work" (L120) could be the section 2. "Background" (L157) could be section 3. "Experiment" (L370) could be section 4. "Results and conclusions" (L437) could be section 5. "Conclusion" (L567) could be merged to "Results and conclusions".

3. Eq. (2): put the equation as fraction and replace 10000 by 10^4.

4. L192: to avoid confusion, these matrices could be denoted as Q, K and V, respectively.

5. Fig. 4: describe in caption the red line and red block.

6. Proof of page 9: take into account that this is a visual proof, and not a mathematical proof.

7. Eqs. (17)-(20): why these terms are in bold?

Selected models according to three approaches are of high power to explain response variable, i.e., dengue cases. Following points are expected to complete model analysis.

1) Considering final results were presented with selected mathematical models according to three statistical approaches, more explicit comparisons among candidate models should be given. For instance, in Line 342-343, authors summarize no association with El Nio, but in prior part, there are no analysis involving El Nio events as explanatory variable.

2) Line 305: 2009 epidemic model was rerun for 2016 epidemic, but showing low predictive power. The only explanation that different source countries of infection is not enough, which cannot manifest the epidemic nature.

Authors did a good job to identify environment factor closely related with dengue cases. Statistical approached were well designed and brief results were presented. However, in order to make this article more readable, written English is better to be improved.

Overall well written with few minor wording errors

Raw data have been shared.

Introduction:

L56 Briefly describe the clinical presentation of dengue virus infections.

L59 Note that the large increase in dengue cases in 2015 was due in large part to the CHIKV epidemic. Many CHIKV cases were misdiagnosed as DENV. I suggest picking a different time period for comparison.

L67 How many cases of ZIKV in Argentina? Imported or locally acquired?

L69 Correction: "an outbreak of YF was reported in the Amazon basin in 2017 with [number] of cases."

L79 Describe how/why climate affects arbovirus transmission and include relevant references from lab and field studies. Provide relevant background on the behavior of the mosquito vector.

L80 Describe what is meant by the "close association"

L82. Climate variability at what time scale? Seasonal, interannual, decadal, etc.

L85 El Nio and La Nia events have also been associated with dengue and malaria transmission in Latin America (please cite relevant literature).

L90. Update the reference: Carbajo et al in press.

Figures/Tables:

Table 2: Instead of a table, you could show a bar graph with a series of the annual cases and use different symbology in the bars to show the different categories of transmission intensity.

Table 3: For each model, please show parameter estimates, SE, p values

Figure 1. Please clarify in the figure legend how the sites were selected where the squares are located. What does "other" refer to? Please provide more detail in the figure legend.

The discussion lacks a robust interpretation of the results in comparison to the findings from other relevant studies, other than those by the authors. Please add references.
