文摘To address the design challenges of helicopter hub central components under high-performance requirements,this paper conducts safe-life topology optimization design research considering fatigue performance for rotor hub central components under multi-load conditions,combined with helicopter fatigue strength engineering design theory.For dealing with the issues of derivative calculation difficulties when directly considering fatigue constraints in existing topology optimization methods,this study establishes a mathematical formulation suitable for structural topology optimization of hub central components by combining modified structural safety fatigue limits based on isolife curves.Then the sensitivity analysis of design variables is derived,and an optimization designmodel for typical main rotor hub central components is constructed.By controlling the safe-life equivalent stress of the hub central structure,the goal of managing structural fatigue life is achieved,providing new insights for long-life,high-reliability hub central component design.The paper presents a topology optimization case study of a typical five-armhub central component,completes optimized structure reconstruction and fatigue strength analysis,which validates the effectiveness of the proposed methodology.

文摘This paper presents an improved level set method for topology optimization of geometrically nonlinear structures accounting for the effect of thermo-mechanical couplings.It derives a new expression for element coupling stress resulting from the combination of mechanical and thermal loading,using geometric nonlinear finite element analysis.A topological model is then developed to minimize compliance while meeting displacement and frequency constraints to fulfill design requirements of structural members.Since the conventional Lagrange multiplier search method is unable to handle convergence instability arising from large deformation,a novel Lagrange multiplier search method is proposed.Additionally,the proposed method can be extended to multi-constrained geometrically nonlinear topology optimization,accommodating multiple physical field couplings.

文摘BACKGROUND Rumination is a critical psychological factor contributing to the relapse of major depressive episodes(MDEs)and a core residual symptom in remitted MDEs.Investigating its neural correlations is essential for developing strategies to prevent MDE relapse.Despite its clinical importance,the brain network mechanisms underlying rumination in remitted MDE patients have yet to be fully elucidated.AIM To investigate the brain network mechanism underlying rumination in patients with remitted MDEs using functional magnetic resonance imaging(fMRI).METHODS We conducted an fMRI-based rumination-distraction task to induce rumination and distraction states in 51 patients with remitted MDEs.Functional connectivity(FC)was analyzed using the network-based statistic(NBS)approach,and eight topological metrics were calculated to compare the network topological properties between the two states.Correlation analyses were further performed to identify the relationships between individual rumination levels and the significantly altered brain network metrics.RESULTS The NBS analysis revealed that the altered FCs between the rumination and distraction states were located primarily in the frontoparietal,default mode,and cerebellar networks.No significant correlation was detected between these altered FCs and individual rumination levels.Among the eight topological metrics,the clustering coefficient,shortest path length,and local efficiency were significantly lower during rumination and positively correlated with individual rumination levels.In contrast,global efficiency was greater in the rumination state than in the distraction state and was negatively correlated with individual rumination levels.CONCLUSION Our work revealed the altered FC and topological properties during rumination in remitted MDE patients,offering valuable insights into the neural mechanisms of rumination from a brain network perspective.

文摘Background With the development of the Internet,the topology optimization of wireless sensor networks has received increasing attention.However,traditional optimization methods often overlook the energy imbalance caused by node loads,which affects network performance.Methods To improve the overall performance and efficiency of wireless sensor networks,a new method for optimizing the wireless sensor network topology based on K-means clustering and firefly algorithms is proposed.The K-means clustering algorithm partitions nodes by minimizing the within-cluster variance,while the firefly algorithm is an optimization algorithm based on swarm intelligence that simulates the flashing interaction between fireflies to guide the search process.The proposed method first introduces the K-means clustering algorithm to cluster nodes and then introduces a firefly algorithm to dynamically adjust the nodes.Results The results showed that the average clustering accuracies in the Wine and Iris data sets were 86.59%and 94.55%,respectively,demonstrating good clustering performance.When calculating the node mortality rate and network load balancing standard deviation,the proposed algorithm showed dead nodes at approximately 50 iterations,with an average load balancing standard deviation of 1.7×10^(4),proving its contribution to extending the network lifespan.Conclusions This demonstrates the superiority of the proposed algorithm in significantly improving the energy efficiency and load balancing of wireless sensor networks to extend the network lifespan.The research results indicate that wireless sensor networks have theoretical and practical significance in fields such as monitoring,healthcare,and agriculture.

文摘The application of multi-material topology optimization affords greater design flexibility compared to traditional single-material methods.However,density-based topology optimization methods encounter three unique challenges when inertial loads become dominant:non-monotonous behavior of the objective function,possible unconstrained characterization of the optimal solution,and parasitic effects.Herein,an improved Guide-Weight approach is introduced,which effectively addresses the structural topology optimization problem when subjected to inertial loads.Smooth and fast convergence of the compliance is achieved by the approach,while also maintaining the effectiveness of the volume constraints.The rational approximation of material properties model and smooth design are utilized to guarantee clear boundaries of the final structure,facilitating its seamless integration into manufacturing processes.The framework provided by the alternating active-phase algorithm is employed to decompose the multi-material topological problem under inertial loading into a set of sub-problems.The optimization of multi-material under inertial loads is accomplished through the effective resolution of these sub-problems using the improved Guide-Weight method.The effectiveness of the proposed approach is demonstrated through numerical examples involving two-phase and multi-phase materials.

文摘Due to the high-order B-spline basis functions utilized in isogeometric analysis(IGA)and the repeatedly updating global stiffness matrix of topology optimization,Isogeometric topology optimization(ITO)intrinsically suffers from the computationally demanding process.In this work,we address the efficiency problem existing in the assembling stiffness matrix and sensitivity analysis using B˙ezier element stiffness mapping.The Element-wise and Interaction-wise parallel computing frameworks for updating the global stiffness matrix are proposed for ITO with B˙ezier element stiffness mapping,which differs from these ones with the traditional Gaussian integrals utilized.Since the explicit stiffness computation formula derived from B˙ezier element stiffness mapping possesses a typical parallel structure,the presented GPU-enabled ITO method can greatly accelerate the computation speed while maintaining its high memory efficiency unaltered.Numerical examples demonstrate threefold speedup:1)the assembling stiffness matrix is accelerated by 10×maximumly with the proposed GPU strategy;2)the solution efficiency of a sparse linear system is enhanced by up to 30×with Eigen replaced by AMGCL;3)the efficiency of sensitivity analysis is promoted by 100×with GPU applied.Therefore,the proposed method is a promising way to enhance the numerical efficiency of ITO for both single-patch and multiple-patch design problems.

文摘The traditional topology optimization method of continuum structure generally uses quadrilateral elements as the basic mesh.This approach often leads to jagged boundary issues,which are traditionally addressed through post-processing,potentially altering the mechanical properties of the optimized structure.A topology optimization method of Movable Morphable Smooth Boundary(MMSB)is proposed based on the idea of mesh adaptation to solve the problem of jagged boundaries and the influence of post-processing.Based on the ICM method,the rational fraction function is introduced as the filtering function,and a topology optimization model with the minimum weight as the objective and the displacement as the constraint is established.A triangular mesh is utilized as the base mesh in this method.The mesh is re-divided in the optimization process based on the contour line,and a smooth boundary parallel to the contour line is obtained.Numerical examples demonstrate that the MMSB method effectively resolves the jagged boundary issues,leading to enhanced structural performance.
文摘The event-triggered mechanism serves as an effective discontinuous control strategy for addressing the consensus tracking problem in multiagent systems(MASs).This approach optimizes energy consumption by updating the controller only when some observed errors exceed a predefined threshold.Considering the influence of noise on agent dynamics in complex control environments,this study investigates an event-triggered control scheme for stochastic MASs,where noise is modeled as Brownian motion.Furthermore,the communication topology of the stochastic MASs is assumed to exhibit a Markovian switching mechanism.Analytical criteria are derived to guarantee consensus tracking in the mean square sense,and a numerical example is provided to validate the effectiveness of the proposed control methods.
