Therefore, accurately predicting ...Economic losses and catastrophic casualties may occur once super high-rise structures are struck by low-probability but high-consequence scenarios of concurrent earthquakes and winds. Therefore, accurately predicting multi-hazard dynamic responses to super high-rise structures has significant engineering and scientific value. This study performed a parametric global sensitivity analysis (GSA) for multi-hazard dynamic response prediction of super high-rise structures using the multiple-degree-of-freedom shear (MFS) model. Polynomial chaos Kriging (PCK) was introduced to build a surrogate model that allowed GSA to be combined with Sobol’ indices. Monte Carlo simulation (MCS) is also conducted for the comparison to verify the accuracy and efficiency of the PCK method. Parametric sensitivity analysis is performed for a wide range of aleatory uncertainty (intensities of coupled multi-hazard), epistemic uncertainty (bending stiffness, k_(m);shear stiffness, kq;density, ρ;and damping ratio, ξ), probability distribution types, and coefficients of variation. The results indicate that epistemic uncertainty parameters, k_(m), ρ, and ξ dramatically affect the multi-hazard dynamic responses of super high-rise structures;in addition, Sobol’ indices between the normal and lognormal distributions are insignificant, while the variation levels have remarkably influenced the sensitivity indices.展开更多

First, proof is given for the existence of derivatives of output variables with respect to the perturbation parameters for the SUEED model. Then by taking advantage of the gradient-based method for sensitivity analysis of a general nonlinear program, detailed formulae are developed for calculating the derivatives of designed variables with respect to perturbation parameters at the equilibrium state of the SUEED model. This method is not only applicable for a sensitivity analysis of the logit-type SUEED problem, but also for the probit-type SUEED problem. The application of the proposed method in a numerical example shows that the proposed method can be used to approximate the equilibrium link flow solutions for both logit-type SUEED and probit-type SUEED problems when small perturbations are introduced in the input parameters.展开更多

Error modeling for these robots generally simplifies the parall...Parallel robots with SCARA(selective compliance assembly robot arm) motions are utilized widely in the field of high speed pick-and-place manipulation. Error modeling for these robots generally simplifies the parallelogram structures included by the robots as a link. As the established error model fails to reflect the error feature of the parallelogram structures, the effect of accuracy design and kinematic calibration based on the error model come to be undermined. An error modeling methodology is proposed to establish an error model of parallel robots with parallelogram structures. The error model can embody the geometric errors of all joints, including the joints of parallelogram structures. Thus it can contain more exhaustively the factors that reduce the accuracy of the robot. Based on the error model and some sensitivity indices defined in the sense of statistics, sensitivity analysis is carried out. Accordingly, some atlases are depicted to express each geometric error’s influence on the moving platform’s pose errors. From these atlases, the geometric errors that have greater impact on the accuracy of the moving platform are identified, and some sensitive areas where the pose errors of the moving platform are extremely sensitive to the geometric errors are also figured out. By taking into account the error factors which are generally neglected in all existing modeling methods, the proposed modeling method can thoroughly disclose the process of error transmission and enhance the efficacy of accuracy design and calibration.展开更多

文摘Accurate quantification of carbon and water fluxes dynamics in arid and semi-arid ecosystems is a critical scientific challenge for regional carbon neutrality assessments and sustainable water resource management.In this study,we developed a multi-flux global sensitivity discriminant index(D_(sen))by integrating the Biome-BGCMuSo model with eddy covariance flux observations.This index was combined with a Bayesian optimization algorithm to conduct parameter optimization.The results demonstrated that:(1)Sensitivity analysis identified 13 highly sensitive parameters affecting carbon and water fluxes.Among these,the canopy light extinction coefficient(k)and the fraction of leaf N in Rubisco(FLNR)exhibited significantly higher sensitivity to carbon fluxes(GPP,NEE,Reco;D_(sen)>10%)compared to water flux(ET).This highlights the strong dependence of carbon cycle simulations on vegetation physiological parameters.(2)The Bayesian optimization framework efficiently converged 30 parameter spaces within 50 iterations,markedly improving carbon fluxes simulation accuracy.The Kling-Gupta efficiency(KGE)values for Gross Primary Production(GPP),Net Ecosystem Exchange(NEE),and Total Respiration(Reco)increased by 44.94%,69.23%and 123%,respectively.The optimization prioritized highly sensitive parameters,underscoring the necessity of parameter sensitivity stratification.(3)The optimized model effectively reproduced carbon sink characteristics in mountain meadows during the growing season(cumulative NEE=-375 g C/m^(2)).It revealed synergistic carbon-water fluxes interactions governed by coupled photosynthesis-stomatal pathways and identified substrate supply limitations on heterotrophic respiration.This study proposes a novel multi-flux sensitivity index and an efficient optimization framework,elucidating the coupling mechanisms between vegetation physiological regulation(k,FLNR)and environmental stressors(VPD,SWD)in carbonwater cycles.The methodology offers a practical approach for arid ecosystem model optimization and provides theoretical insights for grassland management through canopy structure regulation and water-use efficiency enhancement.

文摘While steady improvements have been achieved for the track forecasts of typhoons,there has been a lack of improvement for intensity forecasts.One challenge for intensity forecasts is to capture the rapid intensification(RI),whose nonlinear characteristics impose great difficulties for numerical models.The ensemble sensitivity analysis(ESA)method is used here to analyze the initial conditions that contribute to typhoon intensity forecasts,especially with RI.Six RI processes from five typhoons(Chaba,Haima,Meranti,Sarika,and Songda)in 2016,are applied with ESA,which also gives a composite initial condition that favors subsequent RI.Results from individual cases have generally similar patterns of ESA,but with different magnitudes,when various cumulus parameterization schemes are applied.To draw the initial conditions with statistical significance,sample-mean azimuthal components of ESA are obtained.Results of the composite sensitivity show that typhoons that experience RI in 24 h favor enhanced primary circulation from low to high levels,intensified secondary circulation with increased radial inflow at lower levels and increased radial outflow at upper levels,a prominent warm core at around 300 hPa,and increased humidity at low levels.As the forecast lead time increases,the patterns of ESA are retained,while the sensitivity magnitudes decay.Given the general and quantitative composite sensitivity along with associated uncertainties for different cumulus parameterization schemes,appropriate sampling of the composite sensitivity in numerical models could be beneficial to capturing the RI and improving the forecasting of typhoon intensity.

文摘Economic losses and catastrophic casualties may occur once super high-rise structures are struck by low-probability but high-consequence scenarios of concurrent earthquakes and winds. Therefore, accurately predicting multi-hazard dynamic responses to super high-rise structures has significant engineering and scientific value. This study performed a parametric global sensitivity analysis (GSA) for multi-hazard dynamic response prediction of super high-rise structures using the multiple-degree-of-freedom shear (MFS) model. Polynomial chaos Kriging (PCK) was introduced to build a surrogate model that allowed GSA to be combined with Sobol’ indices. Monte Carlo simulation (MCS) is also conducted for the comparison to verify the accuracy and efficiency of the PCK method. Parametric sensitivity analysis is performed for a wide range of aleatory uncertainty (intensities of coupled multi-hazard), epistemic uncertainty (bending stiffness, k_(m);shear stiffness, kq;density, ρ;and damping ratio, ξ), probability distribution types, and coefficients of variation. The results indicate that epistemic uncertainty parameters, k_(m), ρ, and ξ dramatically affect the multi-hazard dynamic responses of super high-rise structures;in addition, Sobol’ indices between the normal and lognormal distributions are insignificant, while the variation levels have remarkably influenced the sensitivity indices.

文摘The impact of different global and local variables in urban development processes requires a systematic study to fully comprehend the underlying complexities in them.The interplay between such variables is crucial for modelling urban growth to closely reflects reality.Despite extensive research,ambiguity remains about how variations in these input variables influence urban densification.In this study,we conduct a global sensitivity analysis(SA)using a multinomial logistic regression(MNL)model to assess the model’s explanatory and predictive power.We examine the influence of global variables,including spatial resolution,neighborhood size,and density classes,under different input combinations at a provincial scale to understand their impact on densification.Additionally,we perform a stepwise regression to identify the significant explanatory variables that are important for understanding densification in the Brussels Metropolitan Area(BMA).Our results indicate that a finer spatial resolution of 50 m and 100 m,smaller neighborhood size of 5×5 and 3×3,and specific density classes—namely 3(non-built-up,low and high built-up)and 4(non-built-up,low,medium and high built-up)—optimally explain and predict urban densification.In line with the same,the stepwise regression reveals that models with a coarser resolution of 300 m lack significant variables,reflecting a lower explanatory power for densification.This approach aids in identifying optimal and significant global variables with higher explanatory power for understanding and predicting urban densification.Furthermore,these findings are reproducible in a global urban context,offering valuable insights for planners,modelers and geographers in managing future urban growth and minimizing modelling.

文摘This paper presents a sensitivity analysis method for analyzing the key factors affecting the stability problem of the transonic compressors.The adjoint method is integrated into the meridional stability model,a linear stability prediction model utilized to analyze the flow stability problem of the compressor,and the sensitivity analysis method is further developed for the flow stability problem of the compressor.The study selects the NASA Rot or 37,a transonic compressor,as the research object to verify the proposed method and explore the sensitive factors leading to the stall inception.The results of sensitivity analysis to both the flow parameters and the external source terms reveal that the stall inception is sensitive to the base flow field at the rotor tip and the stability margin of the compressor can be enhanced by improving the flow field at this region.Physical explanations are presented and discussed to correlate the three-dimensional flow field to the results obtained via the employed analysis method,which shows that flow structures and characteristics near the end-wall region,especially the tip leakage flow or the tip leakage vortex and its interaction with the shock wave,contribute to the stall inception.

文摘This paper presents a framework for constructing surrogate models for sensitivity analysis of structural dynamics behavior.Physical models involving deformation,such as collisions,vibrations,and penetration,are devel-oped using the material point method.To reduce the computational cost of Monte Carlo simulations,response surface models are created as surrogate models for the material point system to approximate its dynamic behavior.An adaptive randomized greedy algorithm is employed to construct a sparse polynomial chaos expansion model with a fixed order,effectively balancing the accuracy and computational efficiency of the surrogate model.Based on the sparse polynomial chaos expansion,sensitivity analysis is conducted using the global finite difference and Sobol methods.Several examples of structural dynamics are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method in addressing structural dynamics problems.

文摘Roll coating is a vital industrial process used in printing,packaging,and polymer film production,where maintaining a uniform coating is critical for product quality and efficiency.This work models non-isothermal Carreau fluid flow between a rotating roll and a stationary wall under fixed boundary constraints to evaluate how non-Newtonian and thermal effects influence coating performance.The governing equations are transformed into non-dimensional form and simplified using lubrication approximation theory.Approximate analytical solutions are obtained via the perturbation technique,while numerical results are computed using both the finite difference method and the BVPMidrich technique.Furthermore,Response surface methodology(RSM)is employed for optimization and sensitivity analysis.Analytical and numerical results show strong agreement(<1%deviation).The model predicts coating thickness 0.55≤λ≤0.64,power input 1.05≤P_(w)≤1.99,and separation force 0.91≤S_(f)≤1.82 for 0.1≤We≤0.9 and 0.01≤F≤0.09.Increasing We enhances the coating thickness and power input but reduces velocity and separation force.The findings provide physical insight into elastic and viscous effects in roll coating,providing insight for optimizing coating uniformity,minimizing wear,improving industrial coating processes,and extending substrate lifespan.

文摘In recent years,incidents of simultaneous exceedance of PM_(2.5)and O_(3) concentrations,termed PM_(2.5)and O_(3) co-pollution events,have frequently occurred in China.This study conducted atmospheric circulation analysis on two typical co-pollution events in Beijing,occurring from July 22 to July 28,2019,and from April 25 to May 2,2020.These events were categorized into pre-trough southerly airflow type(Type 1)and post-trough northwest flow type(Type 2).Subsequently,sensitivity analyses using the GRAPES-CUACE adjoint model were performed to quantify the contributions of precursor emissions from Beijing and surrounding areas to PM_(2.5)and O_(3) concentrations in Beijing for two types of co-pollution.The results indicated that the spatiotemporal distribution of sensitive source region varied among different circulation types.Primary PM_(2.5)(PPM_(2.5))emissions from Hebei contributed the most to the 24-hour average PM_(2.5)(24-h PM_(2.5))peak concentration(41.6%-45.4%),followed by Beijing emissions(31%-35.7%).The maximum daily 8-hour average ozone peak concentration was primarily influenced by the emissions from Hebei and Beijing,with contribution ratios respectively of 32.8%-44.8% and 29%-42.1%.Additionally,NO_(x)emissions were the main contributors in Type 1,while both NO_(x)and VOCs emissions contributed similarly in Type 2.The iterative emission reduction experiments for two types of co-pollution indicated that Type 1 required emission reductions in NO_(x)(52.4%-71.8%)and VOCs(14.1%-33.8%)only.In contrast,Type 2 required combined emission reductions in NO_(x)(37.0%-65.1%),VOCs(30.7%-56.2%),and PPM_(2.5)(31%-46.9%).This study provided a reference for controlling co-pollution events and improving air quality in Beijing.
文摘Kangbao County is located in the northwest of Bashang in Hebei Province,which is a sub-arid area in the middle temperate zone,with a cold and arid climate and frequent disastrous weather.The meteorological data of Kangbao County Meteorological Station from 1994 to 2023 were selected,and the meteorological elements such as air pressure,temperature,precipitation,wind,relative humidity,sunshine,thunderstorm,hail,gale,rainstorm,fog,and snow cover were counted.The climate background analysis and high-impact weather analysis were carried out in combination with the topographic characteristics,geographical location,and climate characteristics.The results of meteorological sensitivity survey in the park showed that industries such as food,agriculture and new energy are very sensitive to temperature.During the visit to the enterprises in the park,it was found that heavy precipitation,snow,strong winds and hail had a great impact on many industries,and it was recommended to carry out long-term planning and reasonable design of buildings.It should pay close attention to forecasts and early warnings,formulate emergency plans for high-impact weather defense,and actively take preventive measures.
文摘Heliostat field design for tower solar thermal plants must jointly address solar geometry,optical losses,and layout optimization under engineering constraints.We develop an end-to-end workflow that(i)adopts a consistent East–North–Up(ENU)convention for all plant-and sun-related vectors;(ii)integrates cosine efficiency,projection-based shading and blocking(SB),atmospheric transmittance,and an HFLCAL(heliostat field local calculation)truncation model into a single optical chain;and(iii)couples an Eliminate-Blocking(EB)layout prior with an improved“Cheetah”metaheuristic to search ring topology,mirror sizes,and heights while enforcing spacing,kinematics,and rated-power requirements.Projection-based SB is calibrated against Monte-Carlo ray tracing at representative sun positions,and the HFLCAL truncation model is used to quantify sensitivities to sunshape and error-budget parameters.In a three-phase study(fixed-size baseline,uniform sizing,heterogeneous sizing),the EB-guided optimizer improves annual per-area output relative to a radial baseline and reliably attains a 60 MW target.Under equal evaluation budgets,the proposed optimizer converges faster and with lower variance than GA-and PSO-based baselines,while respecting panel-level peak-flux limits through a smooth penalization of flux violations.The resulting layouts exhibit outward-increasing azimuthal spacing and ring-wise size sharing that are consistent with recent heliostat-field deployment experience.The framework is modular,auditable,and readily adaptable to alternative receivers,sites,and cost-aware objectives.

文摘The water hammer problem is an important issue in the dynamics of liquid propulsion system.This paper aims to use the Lattice Boltzmann Method(LBM)with entropy limiter to study the water hammer problems in propellant feedlines.The dynamic characteristics of valve-closing water hammer and filling water hammer are investigated by this method,and the sensitivity of filling water hammer is analyzed with a single factor sensitivity analysis with 8 factors and 9 levels and a multi-factor sensitivity analysis with L_(27)(3^(13))orthogonal experiment based on range method.It is found that the solving result of LBM with entropy limiter is basically in good agreement with finite volume method,and using the entropy limiter can eliminate numerical oscillations when solving valve-closing water hammer problems and solve the numerical"blow up"when solving filling water hammer problems.It can be seen that the dynamic characteristics of valve-closing water hammer are relatively simple,while there are many factors that affect the filling water hammer and the degree of these effects varies.The effects on the maximum water hammer pressure are relatively uniform,but those on the water hammer response time vary greatly through the skewness analysis.

文摘This paper introduces a novel fractional-order model based on the Caputo-Fabrizio(CF)derivative for analyzing computer virus propagation in networked environments.The model partitions the computer population into four compartments:susceptible,latently infected,breaking-out,and antivirus-capable systems.By employing the CF derivative—which uses a nonsingular exponential kernel—the framework effectively captures memory-dependent and nonlocal characteristics intrinsic to cyber systems,aspects inadequately represented by traditional integer-order models.Under Lipschitz continuity and boundedness assumptions,the existence and uniqueness of solutions are rigorously established via fixed-point theory.We develop a tailored two-step Adams-Bashforth numerical scheme for the CF framework and prove its second-order accuracy.Extensive numerical simulations across various fractional orders reveal that memory effects significantly influence virus transmission and control dynamics;smaller fractional orders produce more pronounced memory effects,delaying both infection spread and antivirus activation.Further theoretical analysis,including Hyers-Ulam stability and sensitivity assessments,reinforces the model’s robustness and identifies key parameters governing virus dynamics.The study also extends the framework to incorporate stochastic effects through a stochastic CF formulation.These results underscore fractional-order modeling as a powerful analytical tool for developing robust and effective cybersecurity strategies.

文摘This paper puts forward a rigorous approach for a sensitivity analysis of stochastic user equilibrium with the elastic demand (SUEED) model. First, proof is given for the existence of derivatives of output variables with respect to the perturbation parameters for the SUEED model. Then by taking advantage of the gradient-based method for sensitivity analysis of a general nonlinear program, detailed formulae are developed for calculating the derivatives of designed variables with respect to perturbation parameters at the equilibrium state of the SUEED model. This method is not only applicable for a sensitivity analysis of the logit-type SUEED problem, but also for the probit-type SUEED problem. The application of the proposed method in a numerical example shows that the proposed method can be used to approximate the equilibrium link flow solutions for both logit-type SUEED and probit-type SUEED problems when small perturbations are introduced in the input parameters.

文摘Parallel robots with SCARA(selective compliance assembly robot arm) motions are utilized widely in the field of high speed pick-and-place manipulation. Error modeling for these robots generally simplifies the parallelogram structures included by the robots as a link. As the established error model fails to reflect the error feature of the parallelogram structures, the effect of accuracy design and kinematic calibration based on the error model come to be undermined. An error modeling methodology is proposed to establish an error model of parallel robots with parallelogram structures. The error model can embody the geometric errors of all joints, including the joints of parallelogram structures. Thus it can contain more exhaustively the factors that reduce the accuracy of the robot. Based on the error model and some sensitivity indices defined in the sense of statistics, sensitivity analysis is carried out. Accordingly, some atlases are depicted to express each geometric error’s influence on the moving platform’s pose errors. From these atlases, the geometric errors that have greater impact on the accuracy of the moving platform are identified, and some sensitive areas where the pose errors of the moving platform are extremely sensitive to the geometric errors are also figured out. By taking into account the error factors which are generally neglected in all existing modeling methods, the proposed modeling method can thoroughly disclose the process of error transmission and enhance the efficacy of accuracy design and calibration.
