These algorithms are motivated by the observation that, for a solution to the convection-diffusion problem, low frequency components can be approximated well by a relatively coarse grid and high frequency components can be computed on a fine grid by some local and parallel proce- dures. Hence, these local and parallel algorithms only involve one small original problem on the coarse mesh and some correction problems on the local fine grid. One technical tool for the analysis is the local a priori estimates that are also obtained. Some numerical examples are given to support our theoretical analvsis.展开更多

文摘The field of diffusion micro structural magnetic resonance(MR)aims to probe timedependent diffusion,i.e.,an ensemble-averaged mean-squared displacement that is not linear in time.This time-dependence contains rich information about the surrounding microenvironment.MR methods to measure time-dependent diffusion quantitatively,however,require either non-standard pulse sequences,such as oscillating gradients,or make non-physical assumptions,such as infinitely narrow gradient pulses.Here,we argue that standard spin echo and stimulated echo MR sequences can be used to probe directly.In particular,we propose a framework in which the log-signal ratio obtained from a pair of measurements with different inter-pulse spacingΔis proportional to the MSD between these twoΔvalues along the gradient direction x:-.The framework is quantitative for short,finite-duration gradient pulses and under the Gaussian phase approximation(GPA).To validate the framework,we consider onedimensional diffusion between impermeable,parallel planes,as well as periodicallyspaced,permeable planes.Excellent agreement is obtained between the estimation and the ground truth in the regime where the GPA is expected to hold.Importantly,the GPA can be made to hold for any underlying microstructure,making the proposed framework widely applicable.

文摘This paper presents an Eulerian-Lagrangian algorithm for direct numerical simulation(DNS)of particle-laden flows.The algorithm is applicable to perform simulations of dilute suspensions of small inertial particles in turbulent carrier flow.The Eulerian framework numerically resolves turbulent carrier flow using a parallelized,finite-volume DNS solver on a staggered Cartesian grid.Particles are tracked using a point-particle method utilizing a Lagrangian particle tracking(LPT)algorithm.The proposed Eulerian-Lagrangian algorithm is validated using an inertial particle-laden turbulent channel flow for different Stokes number cases.The particle concentration profiles and higher-order statistics of the carrier and dispersed phases agree well with the benchmark results.We investigated the effect of fluid velocity interpolation and numerical integration schemes of particle tracking algorithms on particle dispersion statistics.The suitability of fluid velocity interpolation schemes for predicting the particle dispersion statistics is discussed in the framework of the particle tracking algorithm coupled to the finite-volume solver.In addition,we present parallelization strategies implemented in the algorithm and evaluate their parallel performance.

文摘Heat transfers at the interface of adjacent saturated soil primarily through the soil particles and the water in the voids.The presence of water induces the contraction of heat flow lines at the interface,leading to the emergence of the thermal contact resistance effect.In this paper,four thermal contact models were developed to predict the thermal contact resistance at the interface of multilayered saturated soils.Based on the theory of thermal-hydro-mechanical coupling,semi-analytical solutions of thermal consolidation subjected to time-dependent heating and loading were obtained by employing Laplace transform and its inverse transformation.Thermal consolidation characteristics of multilayered saturated soils under four different thermal contact models were discussed,and the effects of thermal resistance coefficient,partition thermal contact coefficient,and temperature amplitude on the thermal consolidation process were investigated.The outcomes indicate that the general thermal contact model results in the most pronounced thermal gradient at the interface,which can be degenerated to the other three thermal contact models.The perfect thermal contact model overestimates the deformation of the saturated soil during the thermal consolidation.Moreover,the effect of temperature on consolidation properties decreases gradually with increasing interfacial contact thermal resistance.
文摘The Zagros Basin in southwestern Iran is a significant source of coal,with numerous coal mines operating in the region.Ensuring the stability of coal mines is crucial for safe and efficient mining operations.This study investigates the time-varying response of rocks and roof resistance in coal mines in the Zagros Mountains using a novel approach that combines numerical simulation,relaxation testing,and rock displacement studies.The results show that rocks exhibit significant time-dependent behavior,with changes in rock mechanical properties over time.A comprehensive viscoelastic-plastic model is devel-oped to accurately describe the time-varying strain-softening response of rocks and simulate laboratory tests.The model integrates the Burgers and strain-softening models,simulating stress relaxation curves and rock displacement over time.The study reveals that the rock mass displays significant nonlinear behavior,with changes in rock mechanical properties over time.The findings of this study highlight the importance of considering the time-varying response of rocks and roof resistance in coal mine stability analysis.The results provide valuable insights into the time-dependent behavior of rock mass in coal mines in Iran,which can inform mining practices and mitigate potential hazards.Results in this study can contribute to developing strategies for improving roof stability and reducing the likelihood of roof collapses.
文摘Aiming to solve the steering instability and hysteresis of agricultural robots in the process of movement,a fusion PID control method of particle swarm optimization(PSO)and genetic algorithm(GA)was proposed.The fusion algorithm took advantage of the fast optimization ability of PSO to optimize the population screening link of GA.The Simulink simulation results showed that the convergence of the fitness function of the fusion algorithm was accelerated,the system response adjustment time was reduced,and the overshoot was almost zero.Then the algorithm was applied to the steering test of agricultural robot in various scenes.After modeling the steering system of agricultural robot,the steering test results in the unloaded suspended state showed that the PID control based on fusion algorithm reduced the rise time,response adjustment time and overshoot of the system,and improved the response speed and stability of the system,compared with the artificial trial and error PID control and the PID control based on GA.The actual road steering test results showed that the PID control response rise time based on the fusion algorithm was the shortest,about 4.43 s.When the target pulse number was set to 100,the actual mean value in the steady-state regulation stage was about 102.9,which was the closest to the target value among the three control methods,and the overshoot was reduced at the same time.The steering test results under various scene states showed that the PID control based on the proposed fusion algorithm had good anti-interference ability,it can adapt to the changes of environment and load and improve the performance of the control system.It was effective in the steering control of agricultural robot.This method can provide a reference for the precise steering control of other robots.

文摘Local and parallel finite element algorithms based on two-grid discretization for the time-dependent convection-diffusion equations are presented. These algorithms are motivated by the observation that, for a solution to the convection-diffusion problem, low frequency components can be approximated well by a relatively coarse grid and high frequency components can be computed on a fine grid by some local and parallel proce- dures. Hence, these local and parallel algorithms only involve one small original problem on the coarse mesh and some correction problems on the local fine grid. One technical tool for the analysis is the local a priori estimates that are also obtained. Some numerical examples are given to support our theoretical analvsis.

文摘We present a fully time-dependent quantum wave packet evolution method for investigating molecular dynamics in intense laser fields.This approach enables the simultaneous treatment of interactions among multiple electronic states while simultaneously tracking their time-dependent electronic,vibrational,and rotational dynamics.As an illustrative example,we consider neutral H_(2)molecules and simulate the laser-induced excitation dynamics of electronic and rotational states in strong laser fields,quantitatively distinguishing the respective contributions of electronic dipole transitions(within the classical-field approximation)and non-resonant Raman processes to the overall molecular dynamics.Furthermore,we precisely evaluate the relative contributions of direct tunneling ionization from the ground state and ionization following electronic excitation in the strong-field ionization of H_(2).The developed methodology shows strong potential for performing high-precision theoretical simulations of electronic-vibrational-rotational state excitations,ionization,and dissociation dynamics in molecules and their ions under intense laser fields.

文摘In recent years,numerous recurrent neural network(RNN)models have been reported for solving time-dependent nonlinear optimization problems.However,few existing RNN models simultaneously involve nonlinear equality constraints,direct discretization,and noise suppression.This limitation presents challenges when existing models are applied to practical engineering problems.Additionally,most current discrete-time RNN models are derived from continuous-time models,which may not perform well for solving essentially discrete problems.To handle these issues,a robust direct-discretized RNN(RDD-RNN)model is proposed to efficiently realize time-dependent optimization constrained by nonlinear equalities(TDOCNE)in the presence of various time-dependent noises.Theoretical analyses are provided to reveal that the proposed RDD-RNN model possesses excellent convergence and noise-suppressing capability.Furthermore,numerical experiments and manipulator control instances are conducted and analyzed to validate the superior robustness of the proposed RDD-RNN model under various time-dependent noises,particularly quadratic polynomial noise.Eventually,small target detection experiments further demonstrate the practicality of the RDD-RNN model in image processing applications.
文摘In this paper, Homotopy Analysis method with Genetic Algorithm is presented and used to obtain an analytical solution for the time-dependent Emden-Fowler type of equations and wave-type equation with singular behavior at x = 0. The advantage of this single global method employed to present a reliable framework is utilized to overcome the singularity behavior at the point x = 0 for both models. The method is demonstrated for a variety of problems in one and higher dimensional spaces where approximate-exact solutions are obtained. The results obtained in all cases show the reliability and the efficiency of this method.
文摘Optimization is the key to obtaining efficient utilization of resources in structural design.Due to the complex nature of truss systems,this study presents a method based on metaheuristic modelling that minimises structural weight under stress and frequency constraints.Two new algorithms,the Red Kite Optimization Algorithm(ROA)and Secretary Bird Optimization Algorithm(SBOA),are utilized on five benchmark trusses with 10,18,37,72,and 200-bar trusses.Both algorithms are evaluated against benchmarks in the literature.The results indicate that SBOA always reaches a lighter optimal.Designs with reducing structural weight ranging from 0.02%to 0.15%compared to ROA,and up to 6%–8%as compared to conventional algorithms.In addition,SBOA can achieve 15%–20%faster convergence speed and 10%–18%reduction in computational time with a smaller standard deviation over independent runs,which demonstrates its robustness and reliability.It is indicated that the adaptive exploration mechanism of SBOA,especially its Levy flight–based search strategy,can obviously improve optimization performance for low-and high-dimensional trusses.The research has implications in the context of promoting bio-inspired optimization techniques by demonstrating the viability of SBOA,a reliable model for large-scale structural design that provides significant enhancements in performance and convergence behavior.
