Then, we focus on giving the convergence of the one-point large deviations rate function (LDRF) of the spatial FDM, which is about the asymptotical limit of a parametric variational problem. The main idea for proving the convergence of the LDRF of the spatial FDM is via the Γ-convergence of objective functions. This relies on the qualitative analysis of skeleton equations of the original equation and the numerical method. In order to overcome the difficulty that the drift coefficient is not one-sided Lipschitz continuous, we derive the equivalent characterization of the skeleton equation of the spatial FDM and the discrete interpolation inequality to obtain the uniform boundedness of the solution to the underlying skeleton equation. These play important roles in deriving the T-convergence of objective functions.展开更多

文摘The performance of vehicle suspension is evaluated based on three conflicting indexes:body acceleration,suspension deflection,and dynamic tire load,which vary across different frequency bands.The suspension control strategy faces the challenge to strike a balance among these indexes.This research analyzes the fundamental mechanism of control phase deviation effects on skyhook damper control,groundhook damper control,and acceleration drive damper control.From the perspective of complex domain mechanical impedance with the support of the inertial suspension,a structure-based compensation approach is proposed to address for the control phase deviation.The simulation analysis demonstrates that the coordination of inertial suspension structure and control strategy can effectively enhance the comprehensive suspension performance across entire frequency range.Finally,a semi-active inertial suspension bench is implemented.The experimental results indicate that the suspension with the semi-active inertial suspension has outstanding vibration isolation ability,and enhances the suspension performance at ride comfort,suspension deflection,and road friendly significantly.

文摘With the rapid development of space science projects,large deployable mechanisms have been widely used.However,due to the effects of mechanical friction and gravitational acceleration,on-orbit mechanisms cannot be always deployed to the expected pose.For some precision optical mechanisms,even a minor deviation can result in significant error,so it needs to be measured and corrected.In this paper,the deployment process was modeled and simplified as rotation under single-rotation-axis constraint and translation under single-direction constraint.To solve the problem,a method based on cross-ratio invariability was proposed.The proposed method does not rely on camera calibration techniques,as well as artificial marking points,both of which are necessary in PnP.Instead,only three calibration images before launch and a measurement image on orbit were required.Simulations and experiments demonstrated that the proposed method is more accurate than PnP.In addition,experiments also proved that the feasibility of the proposed method under dark conditions with the aid of a light source and some reflective marking points.

文摘Deviation model is an important model for through-flow analysis in axial compressors.Theoretical analysis in classical deviation models is developed under the assumption of onedimensional flow,which is controlled by the continuity equation.To consider three-dimensional characteristics in transonic flow,this study proposes an improved theoretical analysis method combining force analysis of the blade-to-blade flow with conventional analysis of the continuity equation.Influences of shock structures on transverse force,streamwise velocity and streamline curvature in the blade-to-blade flow are analyzed,and support the analytical modelling of density flow ratio between inlet and outlet conditions.Thus,a novel deviation model for transonic stages in axial compressors is proposed in this paper.The empirical coefficients are corrected based on the experimental data of a linear cascade,and the prediction accuracy is validated with the experimental data of a three-stage transonic compressor.The novel model provides accurate predictions for meridional flow fields at the design point and performance curves at design speed,and shows obvious improvements on classical models by Carter and C¸etin.

文摘We present a large deviation theory that characterizes the exponential estimate for rare events in stochastic dynamical systems in the limit of weak noise.We aim to consider a next-to-leading-order approximation for more accurate calculation of the mean exit time by computing large deviation prefactors with the aid of machine learning.More specifically,we design a neural network framework to compute quasipotential,most probable paths and prefactors based on the orthogonal decomposition of a vector field.We corroborate the higher effectiveness and accuracy of our algorithm with two toy models.Numerical experiments demonstrate its powerful functionality in exploring the internal mechanism of rare events triggered by weak random fluctuations.
文摘Financial performance analysis is of vital importance those involved in a business(e.g.,shareholders,creditors,partners,and company managers).An accurate and appropriate performance measurement is critical for decision-makers to achieve efficient results.Integrated performance measurement,by its nature,consists of multiple criteria with different levels of importance.Multiple Criteria Decision Analysis(MCDA)methods have become increasingly popular for solving complex problems,especially over the last two decades.There are different evaluation methodologies in the literature for selecting the most appropriate one among over 200 MCDA methods.This study comprehensively analyzed 41 companies traded on the Borsa Istanbul Corporate Governance Index for 10 quarters using SWARA,CRITIC,and SD integrated with eight different MCDA method algorithms to determine the position of Turkey's most transparent companies in terms of financial performance.In this study,we propose"stock returns"as a benchmark in comparing and evaluating MCDA methods.Moreover,we calculate the"rank reversal performance of MCDA methods".Finally,we performed a"standard deviation"analysis to identify the objective and characteristic trends for each method.Interestingly,all these innovative comparison procedures suggest that PROMETHEE II(preference ranking organization method for enrichment of evaluations II)and FUCA(Faire Un Choix Adéquat)are the most suitable MCDA methods.In other words,these methods produce a higher correlation with share price;they have fewer rank reversal problems,the distribution of scores they produce is wider,and the amount of information is higher.Thus,it can be said that these advantages make them preferable.The results show that this innovative methodological procedure based on'knowledge discovery'is verifiable,robust and efficient when choosing the MCDA method.
