Then, a practical approach for the block and parallel modeling of the nonlinear continuous mappings with NN is proposed. Finally, an example indicating that the method raised in this paper can be realized by suitable existed software is given. The results of the experiment of the model discussed on the 3-D Mexican straw hat indicate that the block and parallel modeling based on NN is more precise and faster in computation than the direct ones and it is obviously a concrete example and the development of the large-scale general model established by Tu Xuyan.展开更多

Then for any t∈(0, 1), let x1∈K be the unique fixed point of the weak contraction x1→tf(x)+(1-t)Tx. If T has a fixed point and E admits a weakly sequentially continuous duality mapping from E to E^*, then it is shown that {xt} converges to a fixed point of T as t→0. The results presented here improve and generalize the corresponding results in (Xu, 2004).展开更多

It is first introduce by Adler, Konheim and McAndrew by using open covers in 1965. After that it is still an active research by many researchers to produce more properties and applications up to nowadays. The purpose of this paper is to review and explain most important concepts and results of topological entropies of continuous self-maps for dynamical systems on compact and non-compact topological and metric spaces. We give proofs for some of its elementary properties of the topological entropy. Slight modification on Adler's topological entropy is also presented.展开更多

Meanwhile, displacement vectors of macrostructures from original and adjoint load cases are used for sensitivity analysis of the microstructure. Design variables in the form of reciprocal functions of relative densities are introduced and used for linearization of the constraint function. The objective function of total mass is approximately expressed by the second order Taylor series expansion. Then, the proposed concurrent optimization problem is solved using a sequential quadratic programming algorithm, by splitting into a series of sub-problems in the form of the quadratic program. Finally, several numerical examples are presented to validate the effectiveness of the proposed optimization method. The various effects including initial designs, prescribed limits of nodal displacement, and effective thermal conductivity on optimized designs are also investigated. An amount of optimized macrostructures and their corresponding microstructures are achieved.展开更多

It is suggested that the CAT is the most powerful tool to continuously map tidal current fields in the coastal seas with heavy shipping traffic and fisheries activity.展开更多
