Exploring the key contributing factors and characteristic rules of hysteresis is very important for compressor design and flow instability control. In this paper, a novel model method is proposed to analyze the hysteresis behaviors to extend the understanding of compressor rotating stall. The equilibrium states of compressor system under different conditions are first described based on Moore-Greitzer model. Then,through assessing the stability of the equilibrium points by Liapunov＇s theorem, the ratio of shutoff head to compressor characteristic semi-height is found to affect the stall hysteresis： the size of hysteresis loop will gradually decrease, even disappear with the increase of the ratio. Combing the effects of both the ratio and throttle coefficient, the hysteresis behaviors of compressor stall under multi-parameters can be found to be consistent with the topological properties of cusp catastrophic model by Thom＇s catastrophe theory. Finally, according to topological invariant rules, from the perspective of potential function, the equilibrium surface equation of compressor system is developed by standard cusp catastrophic model to describe the various hysteresis behaviors of compressor rotating stall along different control routes.展开更多

The computational results show that the reaction has three channels and proceeds by the addition of fluorine atoms on carbon or sulfur sites of CH2SH, forming initial intermediates. The calculated results show that the channel, in which fluorine attaches to the carbon atom to form CH2S and HF, is the most likely reaction pathway. Topological analysis of electron density was carried out for the three channels. The change trends of the chemical bonds on the reaction paths were discussed. The energy transition states and the structure transition regions （states） of the three channels were found. The calculated results show that the structure transition regions are broad in unobvious exothermic reactions or unobvious endothermic reactions, and are narrow in obvious exothermic reactions or obvious endothermic reactions.展开更多

The configuration change and correspondent topological graphs and adjacency matrixes at different work-stage of the mechanism, which is helpful to completely understand the composition and change rules of the metamorphic mechanism, are analyzed to indicate the metamorphic relationship in one working cycle. Furthermore, the static distance matrix, dynamic distance matrix and stiffness matrix of the mechanism are derived to assess the ability of the designed configuration to reveal some of the topological characteristics like compactness, dynamic sensitivity and stiffness. Using this proposed method in a space truss deployable mechanism helps the designer to evaluate its performance at the conceptual stage of design and make a rapid, reasonable selection for configuration design, which provides means for processing its type of analysis by computer.展开更多

文摘This study explores the interaction between spatial configuration,natural mobility,and visual accessibility in exhibition spaces,an area that remains underexplored.By integrating visibility graph analysis(VGA),intelligent agent simulation(IAS),topological analysis,and field observation,the research examines functional layout and accessibility across four museums.Findings indicate that corridors and pathways,second only to exhibition halls,play a crucial role in spatial mobility.Composite layouts(e.g.,circular and L-shaped designs)exhibit superior mean depth and integration,yet connectivity and mean depth demonstrate a nonlinear relationship.Elongated or complex path turns increase cognitive load,complicating navigation,while open passageways promote smoother visitor distribution.Topological analysis effectively identifies optimal nodes,key locations,and path-turn efficiency under accessibility constraints.Visitor dwell time is shaped not only by exhibit content but also by spatial location,entry sequence,and visitor density.Results support the assumption that space syntax models align with realworld visitor flow patterns,yet predictive models fail to fully capture variations in mobility across different timeframes and behavioral contexts.These insights contribute to optimizing museum design for improved visitor experience and spatial efficiency.

文摘A combined shape and topology optimization algorithm based on isogeometric boundary element method for 3D acoustics is developed in this study.The key treatment involves using adjoint variable method in shape sensitivity analysis with respect to non-uniform rational basis splines control points,and in topology sensitivity analysis with respect to the artificial densities of sound absorption material.OpenMP tool in Fortran code is adopted to improve the efficiency of analysis.To consider the features and efficiencies of the two types of optimization methods,this study adopts a combined iteration scheme for the optimization process to investigate the simultaneous change of geometry shape and distribution of material to achieve better noise control.Numerical examples,such as sound barrier,simple tank,and BeTSSi submarine,are performed to validate the advantage of combined optimization in noise reduction,and to demonstrate the potential of the proposed method for engineering problems.

文摘A method based on the metamorphic principle is proposed for the analysis of the configuration design of a space truss deployable mechanism. The configuration change and correspondent topological graphs and adjacency matrixes at different work-stage of the mechanism, which is helpful to completely understand the composition and change rules of the metamorphic mechanism, are analyzed to indicate the metamorphic relationship in one working cycle. Furthermore, the static distance matrix, dynamic distance matrix and stiffness matrix of the mechanism are derived to assess the ability of the designed configuration to reveal some of the topological characteristics like compactness, dynamic sensitivity and stiffness. Using this proposed method in a space truss deployable mechanism helps the designer to evaluate its performance at the conceptual stage of design and make a rapid, reasonable selection for configuration design, which provides means for processing its type of analysis by computer.

文摘In order to explore the evolution process of the Weibo local network,this study first defines four factors influencing the evolution of the Weibo network.On this basis,the BA scale-free network model was enhanced by incorporating these four factors and accounting for directionality,resulting in a Weibo local network evolution model based on user attributes and behavioral similarity.The model's validity was validated by comparing simulation results with real data.The findings indicate that the Weibo local network exhibits both small-world characteristics and distinctive features.The results show that the Weibo local network exhibits both small-world characteristics and distinctive properties.The in-degree distribution follows a mixed pattern of exponential and power-law distributions,the degree-degree shows isomatching,and both the in-degree centrality and eigenvector centrality values are relatively low.This research contributes to our understanding of user behaviour in the Weibo network,and provides a structural basis for exploring the impact of Weibo network structure on information dissemination.
文摘The thermodynamic properties of dibenzofurans （DFs）, xanthones （XTs） and an-thraquinones （AQs） with one and two positions substituted with hydroxyls in the ideal gas state at 298.15 K and 1.013×10^5 pa were calculated at the B3LYP/6-311G^＊ level using Gaussian 03 program. The isodesmic reactions were designed to calculate the standard free energy of formation （△fG^θ）. Three types of hydrogen bonds exist in the three kinds of chemicals and their bond energies were ascertained as 7-15, 15-23 and 49-58 kJ·mo1^-1 respectively by comparing the △fG^θ values. Electronic density topology analysis was applied to validate the strength of bond.

文摘In this study,a multisensor system consisting of 23 potentiometric sensors was applied for long-term online measurements in outlet flow of the water treatment plant.Within 1 month of continuous measurements,the data set of more than 295,000 observations was acquired.The processing of this dataset with conventional chemometric tools was cumbersome and not very informative.Topological data analysis(TDA)was recently suggested in chemometric literature to deal with large spectroscopic datasets.In this research,we explore the opportunities of TDA with respect to multisensor data with only 23 variables.It is shown that TDA allows for convenient data visualization,studying the evolution of water quality during the measurements and tracking the periodical structure in the data related to the water quality depending on the time of the day and the day of the week.TDA appears to be a valuable tool for multisensor data exploration.

文摘In multicellular and even single-celled organisms,individual components are interconnected at multiscale levels to produce enormously complex biological networks that help these systems maintain homeostasis for development and environmental adaptation.Systems biology studies initially adopted network analysis to explore how relationships between individual components give rise to complex biological processes.Network analysis has been applied to dissect the complex connectivity of mammalian brains across different scales in time and space in The Human Brain Project.In plant science,network analysis has similarly been applied to study the connectivity of plant components at the molecular,subcellular,cellular,organic,and organism levels.Analysis of these multiscale networks contributes to our understanding of how genotype determines phenotype.In this review,we summarized the theoretical framework of plant multiscale networks and introduced studies investigating plant networks by various experimental and computational modalities.We next discussed the currently available analytic methodologies and multi-level imaging techniques used to map multiscale networks in plants.Finally,we highlighted some of the technical challenges and key questions remaining to be addressed in this emerging field.
