In this paper, we propose a control technique for PDF shape of the state variable in nonlinear stochastic systems. Firstly, we derive and prove the form of the controller by investigating the Fokker-PlanckKolmogorov(FPK) equation arising from the stochastic system. Secondly, an approach for getting approximate solution of the FPK equation is provided. A special function including some parameters is taken as the approximate stationary solution of the FPK equation. We use nonlinear least square method to solve the parameters in the function, and capture the approximate solution of the FPK equation. Substituting the approximate solution into the form of the controller, we can acquire the PDF shape controller. Lastly, some example simulations are conducted to verify the algorithm.展开更多

Methods Thirty normal subjects and 52 DCM patients underwent QTVI and colour Doppler flow imaging study in order to measure the left ventricular regional function along left ventricle apical long-axis view and the left ventricle geometry. Peak tissue velocities of left venticle regional muscular tissue during systole （ Vs）, systolic acceleration （ a）, early diastole（Ve） and left atrium contraction（Va） along left venticle apical long axis view were measured. The indexes of left ventricular regional systolic and diastolic function were mearsured at the same time. The left ventricle geometry shape was reflected from the systolic and diastolic sphericity index （Sis and Sid）, the left ventricular ejection fraction （LVEF） and D wave / A wave （PVd/PVa） of pulmonary veins flowing spectrum reflected the global left ventricular systolic and diastolic function. The Vs, Ve, Va, a, PVd/PVa ratio, LVEF, Sis, Sid and their correlations between normal subjects and patients with DCM were compared and analyzed. Results Vs, Ve, Va, a, PVd/PVa, Sis and Sid in patients with DCM were lower than those in normal persons. There were significant relations between Sis and a （ r = 0. 6142, P 〈 0. 05）, Ve/Va and Sid （ r = 0. 6271, P 〈 0. 05 ）. Conclusions QTVI offer a newer method which has a higher sensitivity and accuracy in evaluating the left venticle regional systolic and diastolic function in DCM patients. There was significant relation between regional cardiac function and left venticle sphericity. （ S Chin J Cardiol 2009; 10（1） ： 9 -14）展开更多

The elastic and plastic behaviors of the layers which are two-phase isotropic composites consisting of randomly oriented elastic spheroidal Inclusions and a ductile matrix are predicted by cc mean field method. The prediction results show that inclusion shape has remarkable influence on the overall behavior of the composite. The consequences of the thermal response analysis of the FGM are that the response is dependent on inclusion shape and its composition profile cooperatively and that the plastic behavior of each layer should be taken into account in optimum design of a ceramic-metal FGM.展开更多
