This paper transforms the singular surface integral to the contour integral. The integrand is expanded to Taylor series and the integral results in a closed form. The cut-off error is analyzed to show that the series converges fast and only about 2 terms can agree wel with the accurate result. The comparison of the perfect electric conductive (PEC) sphere's bi-static radar cross section (RCS) using MoM and the accurate method validates the feasibility in manipulating the singularity. The error due to the facet size and the cut-off terms of the series are analyzed in examples.展开更多

The partial differential equations governing the six degrees, i.e., three displacements in the axial, flapwise, and edgewise directions and three cross-sectional angles of torsion, flapwise bending, and edgewise bending, are obtained by the Euler angle descriptions. The power series method is then used to inves- tigate the natural frequencies and the corresponding complex mode functions. It is found that all the natural frequencies are increased by the centrifugal stiffening except the twist frequency, which is slightly decreased. The tapering ratio increases the first transverse, torsional, and axial frequencies, while decreases the second transverse frequency. Because of the pre-twist, all the directions are gyroscopically coupled with the phase differences among the six degrees.展开更多

These two metrics can be treated as a hybrid forecasting approach to combine linear and non-linear forecasting techniques. One metric redefines the distance in k-nearest neighbors based on the coefficients of autoregression (AR) in time series. Meanwhile, an improvement to Kulesh's adaptive metrics in the nearest neighbors is also presented. To evaluate the performance of the two proposed metrics, three types of time-series data, namely deterministic synthetic data, chaotic time-series data and real time-series data, are predicted. Experimental results show the superiority of the proposed AR-enhanced k-nearest neighbors methods to the traditional k-nearest neighbors metric and Kulesh's adaptive metrics.展开更多

We establish efficient algorithms for the degenerate Adomian polynomials. Next we compare the results by the Adomian decomposition method using the classic Adomian polynomials with the results by the Rach-Adomian-Meyers modified decomposition method incorporating the degenerate Adomian polynomials, which itself has been shown to be a confluence of the Adomian decomposition method and the power series method. Convergence acceleration techniques including the diagonal Pade approximants are considered, and new numeric algorithms for the multistage decomposition are deduced using the degenerate Adomian polynomials. Our new technique provides a significant advantage for automated calculations when computing the power series form of the solution for nonlinear ordinary differential equations. Several expository examples are investigated to demonstrate its reliability and efficiency.展开更多

In order to improve the adaptability of direct multi-step prediction models, this paper proposes a method of combining the temporal differences methods with back-propagation algorithm for updating the parameters continuously on the basis of recent data. This method can make the neural network model fit the recent characteristic of the time series as close as possible, therefore improves the prediction accuracy. We built models and made predictions for the sunspot series. The prediction results of adaptive modeling method are better than that of non-adaptive modeling methods.展开更多

A comparative study was made of three different computing methods: the same starting point method, the striding averaging method, and the stagger phase averaging method. All of them can be used to calculate the Hurst index, which quantifies fluctuation and randomness. This study used real water quality data from Shazhu monitoring station on Taihu Lake in Wuxi, Jiangsu Province. The results show that, of the three methods, the stagger phase averaging method is best for calculating the Hurst index of a pollutant time series from the perspective of statistical regularity.展开更多

The semi-discrete system of ordinary differential equations in the time direction, obtained by applying the MOL to PDE, is solved with the use of a method of Adapted Series, based on Scheifele’s G-functions. This method integrates exactly unperturbed linear systems of ordinary differential equations, with only one G-function. An implementation of this algorithm is used to approximate the solution of two test problems proposed by various authors. The results obtained by the Dufort-Frankel, Crank-Nicholson and the methods of Adapted Series versus the analytical solution, show the results of mistakes made.展开更多

The variations of internal forces under different angles and spacings of the webs are simulated. The law of the optimal arrangement of the webs of the parallel-string simple-beam truss is obtained: under the condition that the rigidity of the rod is allowed, the form of no vertical web-type truss and reducing the span distance and inclination of the side span are advisable, which can save materials and reduce the weight as well. This method can be applied to the calculation of internal forces for arbitrary loads and truss forms.展开更多

X-ray diffraction/Rietveld method was used to quantify the crystalline phase composition of the hydrated samples. Additionally, the morphology of hydrated samples was observed by scanning electron microscopy(SEM). The results showed that, calcium hydroxide(CH), ettringite(AFt) and amorphous phase content in hydrated samples decreased as the replacement level of CCK increased, while AFm and str?tlingite increased, which was caused by the combination of dilute, physical and pozzolanic effects. The hydration of anhydrous cement phases was accelerated by physical effect but hindered by the retardation effect of CCK. The role of each effects was discussed in detail to analyze the mechanism of OPC hydration with CCK addition. The SEM images showed that the shortening of AFt at 1 day and the denser texture at 28 days was observed with CCK addition, which was caused by the physical and pozzolanic effects, respectively.展开更多
