In this paper, we report a novel multistable strategy that is reversible under external forces, based on the fact that a variational reversible locally resonant elastic metamaterial(LREM) with four configurations is proposed. Through a combination of theoretical analysis and numerical simulations, this newly designed metamaterial is proven to exhibit different bandgap ranges and vibration attenuation properties in each configuration. Especially, there is tunable anisotropy shown in these configurations, which enables the bandgaps in two directions to be separated or overlapped. A model with a bandgap shifting ratio(BSR) of 100% and an overlap ratio of 25% is set to validate the multistable strategy feasibility. The proposed design strategy demonstrates significant potentials for applications in versatile scenarios.展开更多

Modeling of variation propagation in multistation machining process is one of the most important research scenarios. Due to the existence of multiple variation streams, it is challenging to model and analyze variation propagation in a multi-station system. Current approaches to error modeling for multistation machining process are not explicit enough for error control and ensuring final product quality. In this paper, a mathematic model to depict the part dimensional variation of the complex multistation manufacturing process is formulated. A linear state space dimensional error propagation equation is established through kinematics analysis of the influence of locating parameter variations and locating datum variations on dimensional errors, so the dimensional error accumulation and transformation within the multistation process are quantitatively described. A systematic procedure to build the model is presented, which enhances the way to determine the variation sources in complex machining systems. A simple two-dimensional example is used to illustrate the proposed procedures. Finally, an industrial case of multistation machining part in a manufacturing shop is given to testify the validation and practicability of the method. The proposed analytical model is essential to quality control and improvement for multistation systems in machining quality forecasting and design optimization.展开更多

In this paper, taking advantage of cooperation mechanism on signal level in the aviation multi-station sympathetic network, a method of obtaining target time difference of arrival (TDOA) measurement using multi-station collaborative detecting based on time-frequency association is proposed. The method can not only achieve matching between target and its measurement, but also obtain TDOA measurement by further evolutionary transaction through refreshing sequential pulse time of arrival (TOA) measurement matrix for matching and correlating. Simulation results show that the accuracy of TDOA measurement has significant superiority over TOA, and detection probability of false TDOA measurement introduced by noise and fake measurement can be reduced effectively.展开更多

We find that the optical bistability and multistability behaviours can be controlled by adjusting the intensity of the microwave field or the intensity of the coherent coupling field. Furthermore, our studies show an interesting phenomenon of the transition from the optical bistability to the optical multistability only by changing the negative detuning of the coupling field into the positive detuning of the coupling field.

It is found that the threshold of OB and OM can be controlled by quantum interference mechanisms. In addition intensity of coupling field and the rate of an incoherent pumping field on behavior of OB and OM are then discussed.

Due to the existence of multiple variation streams, it is challenging to model and analyze variation propagation in a multi-station system. Current approaches to error modeling for multistation machining process are not explicit enough for error control and ensuring final product quality. In this paper, a mathematic model to depict the part dimensional variation of the complex multistation manufacturing process is formulated. A linear state space dimensional error propagation equation is established through kinematics analysis of the influence of locating parameter variations and locating datum variations on dimensional errors, so the dimensional error accumulation and transformation within the multistation process are quantitatively described. A systematic procedure to build the model is presented, which enhances the way to determine the variation sources in complex machining systems. A simple two-dimensional example is used to illustrate the proposed procedures.

文摘In this paper,we introduce a new two-dimensional nonlinear oscillator with an infinite number of coexisting limit cycles.These limit cycles form a layer-by-layer structure which is very unusual.Forty percent of these limit cycles are self-excited attractors while sixty percent of them are hidden attractors.Changing this new system to its forced version,we introduce a new chaotic system with an infinite number of coexisting strange attractors.We implement this system through field programmable gate arrays.

文摘An improved heterogeneous dual memristive circuit(DMC)is proposed based on Chua's circuit,which shows good symmetry and multistablility.For the difficulty in controlling the initial conditions,which restricts the engineering applications,the 3 rd-order model(3 OM)in flux-charge domain is derived from the 5 th-order model(5 OM)in volt-ampere domain by using the flux-charge analysis method(FCAM).The consistence of symmetry and multistability before and after dimensionality decreasing is meticulously investigated via bifurcation diagram,Lyapunov exponents,and especially attraction basins.The comparative analysis validates the effectiveness of reduction model and improves the controllability of the circuit.To avoid the noise in the analog circuit,a field-programmable gate array(FPGA)is utilized to realize the reduction model,which is rarely reported and valuable for relevant research and application.

文摘A five-value memristor model is proposed,it is proved that the model has a typical hysteresis loop by analyzing the relationship between voltage and current.Then,based on the classical Liu-Chen system,a new memristor-based fourdimensional(4D)chaotic system is designed by using the five-value memristor.The trajectory phase diagram,Poincare mapping,bifurcation diagram,and Lyapunov exponent spectrum are drawn by numerical simulation.It is found that,in addition to the general chaos characteristics,the system has some special phenomena,such as hidden homogenous multistabilities,hidden heterogeneous multistabilities,and hidden super-multistabilities.Finally,according to the dimensionless equation of the system,the circuit model of the system is built and simulated.The results are consistent with the numerical simulation results,which proves the physical realizability of the five-value memristor-based chaotic system proposed in this paper.

文摘Memristor chaotic systems have aroused great attention in recent years with their potentials expected in engineering applications.In this paper,a five-dimension(5D)double-memristor hyperchaotic system(DMHS)is modeled by introducing two active magnetron memristor models into the Kolmogorov-type formula.The boundness condition of the proposed hyperchaotic system is proved.Coexisting bifurcation diagram and numerical verification explain the bistability.The rich dynamics of the system are demonstrated by the dynamic evolution map and the basin.The simulation results reveal the existence of transient hyperchaos and hidden extreme multistability in the presented DMHS.The NIST tests show that the generated signal sequence is highly random,which is feasible for encryption purposes.Furthermore,the system is implemented based on a FPGA experimental platform,which benefits the further applications of the proposed hyperchaos.

文摘The weak signal detection method based on stochastic resonance is usually used to extract and identify the weak characteristic signal submerged in strong noise by using the noise energy transfer mechanism.We propose a novel composite multistable stochastic-resonance(NCMSR)model combining the Gaussian potential model and an improved bistable model.Compared with the traditional multistable stochastic resonance method,all the parameters in the novel model have no symmetry,the output signal-to-noise ratio can be optimized and the output amplitude can be improved by adjusting the system parameters.The model retains the advantages of continuity and constraint of the Gaussian potential model and the advantages of the improved bistable model without output saturation,the NCMSR model has a higher utilization of noise.Taking the output signal-to-noise ratio as the index,weak periodic signal is detected based on the NCMSR model in Gaussian noise andαnoise environment respectively,and the detection effect is good.The application of NCMSR to the actual detection of bearing fault signals can realize the fault detection of bearing inner race and outer race.The outstanding advantages of this method in weak signal detection are verified,which provides a theoretical basis for industrial practical applications.

文摘The recognition,repetition and prediction of the post-failure motion process of long-runout landslides are key scientific problems in the prevention and mitigation of geological disasters.In this study,a new numerical method involving LPF3D based on a multialgorithm and multiconstitutive model was proposed to simulate long-runout landslides with high precision and efficiency.The following results were obtained:(a)The motion process of landslides showed a steric effect with mobility,including gradual disintegration and spreading.The sliding mass can be divided into three states(dense,dilute and ultradilute)in the motion process,which can be solved by three dynamic regimes(friction,collision,and inertial);(b)Coupling simulation between the solid grain and liquid phases was achieved,focusing on drag force influences;(c)Different algorithms and constitutive models were employed in phase-state simulations.The volume fraction is an important indicator to distinguish different state types and solid‒liquid ratios.The flume experimental results were favorably validated against long-runout landslide case data;and(d)In this method,matched dynamic numerical modeling was developed to better capture the realistic motion process of long-runout landslides,and the advantages of continuum media and discrete media were combined to improve the computational accuracy and efficiency.This new method can reflect the realistic physical and mechanical processes in long-runout landslide motion and provide a suitable method for risk assessment and pre-failure prediction.

文摘As an important application research topic of the intelligent aviation multi-station, collaborative detecting must overcome the problem of scouting measurement with status of 'fragmentation', and the NP-hardness problem of matching association between target and measurement in the process of scouting to data-link, which has complicated technical architecture of network construction. In this paper, taking advantage of cooperation mechanism on signal level in the aviation multi-station sympathetic network, a method of obtaining target time difference of arrival (TDOA) measurement using multi-station collaborative detecting based on time-frequency association is proposed. The method can not only achieve matching between target and its measurement, but also obtain TDOA measurement by further evolutionary transaction through refreshing sequential pulse time of arrival (TOA) measurement matrix for matching and correlating. Simulation results show that the accuracy of TDOA measurement has significant superiority over TOA, and detection probability of false TDOA measurement introduced by noise and fake measurement can be reduced effectively.
