A novel variable-order fractional chaotic map and its dynamics

In recent years,fractional-order chaotic maps have been paid more attention in publications because of the memory effect.This paper presents a novel variable-order fractional sine map(VFSM)based on the discrete fractional calculus.Specially,the order is defined as an iterative function that incorporates the current state of the system.By analyzing phase diagrams,time sequences,bifurcations,Lyapunov exponents and fuzzy entropy complexity,the dynamics of the proposed map are investigated comparing with the constant-order fractional sine map.The results reveal that the variable order has a good effect on improving the chaotic performance,and it enlarges the range of available parameter values as well as reduces non-chaotic windows.Multiple coexisting attractors also enrich the dynamics of VFSM and prove its sensitivity to initial values.Moreover,the sequence generated by the proposed map passes the statistical test for pseudorandom number and shows strong robustness to parameter estimation,which proves the potential applications in the field of information security.

Multi-Level Image Segmentation Combining Chaotic Initialized Chimp Optimization Algorithm and Cauchy Mutation

To enhance the diversity and distribution uniformity of initial population,as well as to avoid local extrema in the Chimp Optimization Algorithm(CHOA),this paper improves the CHOA based on chaos initialization and Cauchy mutation.First,Sin chaos is introduced to improve the random population initialization scheme of the CHOA,which not only guarantees the diversity of the population,but also enhances the distribution uniformity of the initial population.Next,Cauchy mutation is added to optimize the global search ability of the CHOA in the process of position(threshold)updating to avoid the CHOA falling into local optima.Finally,an improved CHOA was formed through the combination of chaos initialization and Cauchy mutation(CICMCHOA),then taking fuzzy Kapur as the objective function,this paper applied CICMCHOA to natural and medical image segmentation,and compared it with four algorithms,including the improved Satin Bowerbird optimizer(ISBO),Cuckoo Search(ICS),etc.The experimental results deriving from visual and specific indicators demonstrate that CICMCHOA delivers superior segmentation effects in image segmentation.

Three-dimensional pseudo-dynamic reliability analysis of seismic shield tunnel faces combined with sparse polynomial chaos expansion

To address the seismic face stability challenges encountered in urban and subsea tunnel construction,an efficient probabilistic analysis framework for shield tunnel faces under seismic conditions is proposed.Based on the upper-bound theory of limit analysis,an improved three-dimensional discrete deterministic mechanism,accounting for the heterogeneous nature of soil media,is formulated to evaluate seismic face stability.The metamodel of failure probabilistic assessments for seismic tunnel faces is constructed by integrating the sparse polynomial chaos expansion method(SPCE)with the modified pseudo-dynamic approach(MPD).The improved deterministic model is validated by comparing with published literature and numerical simulations results,and the SPCE-MPD metamodel is examined with the traditional MCS method.Based on the SPCE-MPD metamodels,the seismic effects on face failure probability and reliability index are presented and the global sensitivity analysis(GSA)is involved to reflect the influence order of seismic action parameters.Finally,the proposed approach is tested to be effective by a engineering case of the Chengdu outer ring tunnel.The results show that higher uncertainty of seismic response on face stability should be noticed in areas with intense earthquakes and variation of seismic wave velocity has the most profound influence on tunnel face stability.

Snap-through behaviors and nonlinear vibrations of a bistable composite laminated cantilever shell:an experimental and numerical study

The snap-through behaviors and nonlinear vibrations are investigated for a bistable composite laminated cantilever shell subjected to transversal foundation excitation based on experimental and theoretical approaches.An improved experimental specimen is designed in order to satisfy the cantilever support boundary condition,which is composed of an asymmetric region and a symmetric region.The symmetric region of the experimental specimen is entirely clamped,which is rigidly connected to an electromagnetic shaker,while the asymmetric region remains free of constraint.Different motion paths are realized for the bistable cantilever shell by changing the input signal levels of the electromagnetic shaker,and the displacement responses of the shell are collected by the laser displacement sensors.The numerical simulation is conducted based on the established theoretical model of the bistable composite laminated cantilever shell,and an off-axis three-dimensional dynamic snap-through domain is obtained.The numerical solutions are in good agreement with the experimental results.The nonlinear stiffness characteristics,dynamic snap-through domain,and chaos and bifurcation behaviors of the shell are quantitatively analyzed.Due to the asymmetry of the boundary condition and the shell,the upper stable-state of the shell exhibits an obvious soft spring stiffness characteristic,and the lower stable-state shows a linear stiffness characteristic of the shell.

Generalized polynomial chaos expansion by reanalysis using static condensation based on substructuring

This paper presents a new computational method for forward uncertainty quantification(UQ)analyses on large-scale structural systems in the presence of arbitrary and dependent random inputs.The method consists of a generalized polynomial chaos expansion(GPCE)for statistical moment and reliability analyses associated with the stochastic output and a static reanalysis method to generate the input-output data set.In the reanalysis,we employ substructuring for a structure to isolate its local regions that vary due to random inputs.This allows for avoiding repeated computations of invariant substructures while generating the input-output data set.Combining substructuring with static condensation further improves the computational efficiency of the reanalysis without losing accuracy.Consequently,the GPCE with the static reanalysis method can achieve significant computational saving,thus mitigating the curse of dimensionality to some degree for UQ under high-dimensional inputs.The numerical results obtained from a simple structure indicate that the proposed method for UQ produces accurate solutions more efficiently than the GPCE using full finite element analyses(FEAs).We also demonstrate the efficiency and scalability of the proposed method by executing UQ for a large-scale wing-box structure under ten-dimensional(all-dependent)random inputs.

Arrhythmia Detection by Using Chaos Theory with Machine Learning Algorithms

Heart monitoring improves life quality.Electrocardiograms(ECGs or EKGs)detect heart irregularities.Machine learning algorithms can create a few ECG diagnosis processing methods.The first method uses raw ECG and time-series data.The second method classifies the ECG by patient experience.The third technique translates ECG impulses into Q waves,R waves and S waves(QRS)features using richer information.Because ECG signals vary naturally between humans and activities,we will combine the three feature selection methods to improve classification accuracy and diagnosis.Classifications using all three approaches have not been examined till now.Several researchers found that Machine Learning(ML)techniques can improve ECG classification.This study will compare popular machine learning techniques to evaluate ECG features.Four algorithms—Support Vector Machine(SVM),Decision Tree,Naive Bayes,and Neural Network—compare categorization results.SVM plus prior knowledge has the highest accuracy(99%)of the four ML methods.QRS characteristics failed to identify signals without chaos theory.With 99.8%classification accuracy,the Decision Tree technique outperformed all previous experiments.

A Novel 2D Hyperchaotic with a Complex Dynamic Behavior for Color Image Encryption

The generation method of the key stream and the structure of the algorithm determine the security of the cryptosystem.The classical chaotic map has simple dynamic behavior and few control parameters,so it is not suitable for modern cryptography.In this paper,we design a new 2D hyperchaotic system called 2D simple structure and complex dynamic behavior map(2D-SSCDB).The 2D-SSCDB has a simple structure but has complex dynamic behavior.The Lyapunov exponent verifies that the 2D-SSCDB has hyperchaotic behavior,and the parameter space in the hyperchaotic state is extensive and continuous.Trajectory analysis and some randomness tests verify that the 2D-SSCDB can generate random sequences with good performance.Next,to verify the excellent performance of the 2D-SSCDB,we use the 2D-SSCDB to generate a keystream for color image encryption.In the encryption algorithm,the encryption algorithm scrambles and diffuses simultaneously,increasing the cryptographic system’s security.The horizontal correlation,vertical correlation,and diagonal correlation of ciphertext are−0.0004,−0.0004 and 0.0007,respectively.The average information entropy of the ciphertext is 7.9993.In addition,the designed encryption algorithm reduces the correlation between the three channels of the color image.Security analysis shows that the color image encryption algorithm designed using 2DSSCDB has good security,can resist standard attack methods,and has high efficiency.

SR-DCSK Cooperative Communication System with Code Index Modulation:A New Design for 6G New Radios

This paper proposes a high-throughput short reference differential chaos shift keying cooperative communication system with the aid of code index modulation,referred to as CIM-SR-DCSK-CC system.In the proposed CIM-SR-DCSK-CC system,the source transmits information bits to both the relay and destination in the first time slot,while the relay not only forwards the source information bits but also sends new information bits to the destination in the second time slot.To be specific,the relay employs an N-order Walsh code to carry additional log_(2)N information bits,which are superimposed onto the SRDCSK signal carrying the decoded source information bits.Subsequently,the superimposed signal carrying both the source and relay information bits is transmitted to the destination.Moreover,the theoretical bit error rate(BER)expressions of the proposed CIMSR-DCSK-CC system are derived over additive white Gaussian noise(AWGN)and multipath Rayleigh fading channels.Compared with the conventional DCSKCC system and SR-DCSK-CC system,the proposed CIM-SR-DCSK-CC system can significantly improve the throughput without deteriorating any BER performance.As a consequence,the proposed system is very promising for the applications of the 6G-enabled lowpower and high-rate communication.

Dynamic modelling and chaos control for a thin plate oscillator using Bubnov–Galerkin integral method

The utilization of thin plate systems based on acoustic vibration holds significant importance in micro-nano manipulation and the exploration of nonlinear science. This paper focuses on the analysis of an actual thin plate system driven by acoustic wave signals. By combining the mechanical analysis of thin plate microelements with the Bubnov–Galerkin integral method, the governing equation for the forced vibration of a square thin plate is derived. Notably,the reaction force of the thin plate vibration system is defined as f=α|w|, resembling Hooke’s law. The energy function and energy level curve of the system are also analyzed. Subsequently, the amplitude–frequency response function of the thin plate oscillator is solved using the harmonic balance method. Through numerical simulations, the amplitude–frequency curves are analyzed for different vibration modes under the influence of various parameters. Furthermore, the paper demonstrates the occurrence of conservative chaotic motions in the thin plate oscillator using theoretical and numerical methods. Dynamics maps illustrating the system’s states are presented to reveal the evolution laws of the system. By exploring the effects of force fields and system energy, the underlying mechanism of chaos is interpreted. Additionally, the phenomenon of chaos in the oscillator can be controlled through the method of velocity and displacement states feedback, which holds significance for engineering applications.

This article proposes a non-ideal flux-controlled memristor with a bisymmetric sawtooth piecewise function, and a new multi-wing memristive chaotic system(MMCS) based on the memristor is generated. Compared with other existing MMCSs, the most eye-catching point of the proposed MMCS is that the amplitude of the wing will enlarge towards the poles as the number of wings increases. Diverse coexisting attractors are numerically found in the MMCS, including chaos,quasi-period, and stable point. The circuits of the proposed memristor and MMCS are designed and the obtained results demonstrate their validity and reliability.

A novel algorithm to analyze the dynamics of digital chaotic maps in finite-precision domain

Chaotic maps are widely used to design pseudo-random sequence generators, chaotic ciphers, and secure communication systems. Nevertheless, the dynamic characteristics of digital chaos in finite-precision domain must be degraded in varying degrees due to the limited calculation accuracy of hardware equipment. To assess the dynamic properties of digital chaos, we design a periodic cycle location algorithm(PCLA) from a new perspective to analyze the dynamic degradation of digital chaos. The PCLA can divide the state-mapping graph of digital chaos into several connected subgraphs for the purpose of locating all fixed points and periodic limit cycles contained in a digital chaotic map. To test the versatility and availability of our proposed algorithm, the periodic distribution and security of 1-D logistic maps and 2-D Baker maps are analyzed in detail. Moreover, this algorithm is helpful to the design of anti-degradation algorithms for digital chaotic dynamics. These related studies can promote the application of chaos in engineering practice.

Over-limit risk assessment method of integrated energy system considering source-load correlation

In an integrated energy system,source-load multiple uncertainties and correlations lead to an over-limit risk in operating state,including voltage,temperature,and pressure over-limit.Therefore,efficient probabilistic energy flow calculation methods and risk assessment theories applicable to integrated energy systems are crucial.This study proposed a probabilistic energy flow calculation method based on polynomial chaos expansion for an electric-heat-gas integrated energy system.The method accurately and efficiently calculated the over-limit probability of the system state variables,considering the coupling conditions of electricity,heat,and gas,as well as uncertainties and correlations in renewable energy unit outputs and multiple types of loads.To further evaluate and quantify the impact of uncertainty factors on the over-limit risk,a global sensitivity analysis method for the integrated energy system based on the analysis of covariance theory is proposed.This method considered the source-load correlation and aimed to identify the key uncertainty factors that influence stable operation.Simulation results demonstrated that the proposed method achieved accuracy to that of the Monte Carlo method while significantly reducing calculation time.It effectively quantified the over-limit risk under the presence of multiple source-load uncertainties.
