The wave and vibratory power transmission in a finite L-shaped Mindlin plate with two simply supported opposite edges

In this paper,wave and vibratory power transmission in a finite L-shaped Mindlin plate with two simply supported opposite edges are investigated using the wave approach.The dynamic responses,active and reactive power flow in the finite plate are calculated by the Mindlin plate theory （MPT） and classic plate theory （CPT）.To satisfy the boundary conditions and continuous conditions at the coupled junction of the finite L-shaped plate,the near-field and far-field waves are entirely contained in the wave approach.The in-plane longitudinal and shear waves are also considered.The results indicate that the vibratory power flow based on the MPT is different from that based on the CPT not only at high frequencies but also at low and medium frequencies.The influence of the plate thickness on the vibrational power flow is investigated.From the results it is seen that the shear and rotary inertia correction of the MPT can influence the active and reactive power at the junction of the L-shaped plate not only at high frequencies but also at low and medium frequencies.Furthermore,the effects of structural damping on the active and reactive power flow at the junction are also analyzed.

Axial Compression Behavior and Analytical Method of L-Shaped Column Composed of Concrete-Filled Square Steel Tubes

Based on the characteristics of an L-shaped column composed of concrete-filled square steel tubes, the axial compression experiment and nonlinear finite element analysis were carried out to study the mechanical property of the L-shaped column. The load-displacement curve for the L-shaped column, the deflection and load-strain curves for the mono columns were obtained by the axial compression experiment. The results show that the L-shaped column exhibits a flexural-torsional buckling failure mode. The numerical simulation by the finite element analysis shows that the bearing capacity and failure mode are in accordance with those of the axial compression experiment and the feasi- bility of the finite element analysis is proved. For the calculation of the bearing capacity of the L-shaped column com- posed of concrete-filled square steel tubes, an analytical method is proposed based on the theory of the elastic stability and spatial truss model. The results of the analytical method are in good agreement with those of the axial compression experiment and the finite element analysis.

Joint 2D DOA and Doppler frequency estimation for L-shaped array using compressive sensing

A joint two-dimensional(2D)direction-of-arrival(DOA)and radial Doppler frequency estimation method for the L-shaped array is proposed in this paper based on the compressive sensing(CS)framework.Revised from the conventional CS-based methods where the joint spatial-temporal parameters are characterized in one large scale matrix,three smaller scale matrices with independent azimuth,elevation and Doppler frequency are introduced adopting a separable observation model.Afterwards,the estimation is achieved by L1-norm minimization and the Bayesian CS algorithm.In addition,under the L-shaped array topology,the azimuth and elevation are separated yet coupled to the same radial Doppler frequency.Hence,the pair matching problem is solved with the aid of the radial Doppler frequency.Finally,numerical simulations corroborate the feasibility and validity of the proposed algorithm.

Research on vibration characteristics of L-shaped plate using a mobility power flow approach

L-shaped plates have become an important focuses in structural vibration research. To determine their vibration characteristics, this paper applied a mobility power flow method. Firstly, the L-shaped plate was divided into two substructures to simplify analysis. The coupled bending moment was then deduced by applying a continuous vibration property on the common edge. Next, the response on any point of the plate and the input and transmitted power flow formulas were calculated. Numerical simulations showed the distribution of the coupled bending moment and the response of the whole structure. The validity of this method was verified by the SEA approach.

Laboratory test on the combined cooling effect of L-shaped thermosyphons and thermal insulation on high-grade roadway construction in permafrost regions

With the completion of the Qinghai-Tibetan Railway,economic development of related areas has been greatly accelerated.This,in return,calls for building or upgrading more roadways,especially high-grade roadways.In cold regions,the thawing of permafrost can induce settlement damage of and even failure to railway (or roadway) embankments.Thermosyphons (self-powered refrigera-tion devices that are used to help keep the permafrost cool) have proved effective in mitigating thaw settlement by maintaining the thermal stability of the embankments.However,for high-grade roadway embankments of great width,stabilizing or cooling ef-fects of traditional geotechnological measures may be limited.To enhance the cooling effect of thermosyphons,an L-shaped thermosyphon was designed.A laboratory test was carried out to study the combined cooling effect of the L-shaped thermosyphon and thermal insulation applying to roadbed construction.The angle between the evaporator and condenser sections of the L-shaped thermosyphon is 134 degrees,and the L-shaped thermosyphon was inserted into the soil at an angle of 5 degrees with the road surface.The tested results show that the L-shaped thermosyphon is effective in removing heat from a roadway in winter.When the ambient air temperature is lower than the soil temperature,the thermosyphon is active and extracts the heat in the soil around it.When the ambient air temperature is higher than the soil temperature,the thermosyphon is inactive,and no heat is in-jected into the soil through the L-shaped thermosyphon.Compared to embankments with straight thermosyphons,the inner parts of the embankments with L-shaped thermosyphons were significantly cooled.It is hoped that the present study would be useful to the application of L-shaped thermosyphons in the construction of high-grade roadways in cold regions.

Test on mechanical behavior of SRC L-shaped columns under combined torsion and bending moment

Investigations of the seismic behavior of steel reinforced concrete L-shaped columns under constant axial compression and cycled bending-shear-torsion load were performed.Six specimens,which considered two parameters,i.e.,the moment ratio of torsion to bending(γ)and the aspect ratio(column length-to-depth ratio,φ),were prepared for the experiment.In this study,the failure process,torsion-displacement hysteresis curves,and flexure-displacement hysteresis curves were obtained.The failure characteristics,mechanical behavior of specimens such as the failure patterns,hysteresis curves,rigidity degradation,ductility and energy dissipation,are analyzed.The experimental research indicated that the major failures of the specimens were bending failure,bending-shear failure and bending-torsion failure as the moment ratio of torsion to bending(γ)increased.The torsion-displacement hysteresis curves were pinched in the middle,formed a slip platform,and the phenomenon of“load drop”occurred after the peak load.The bending-displacement hysteresis curves were plump,which showed that bending capacity of the specimen was better than its torsion capacity.Additionally,the energy dissipation of the specimen was dominated by torsion in the early stage and ultimately governed by the bending moment in the later phase.Test results also indicated that the displacement ductility coefficient and interstory rotation angle of the failure point were less than 3.0 and 1/50,respectively,which means the test specimen performance does not meet the requirement of the Chinese Code for Seismic Design of Buildings(GB 50011-2014)in this respect.

Bandwidth Numerical Analysis of Triangular Patch Antenna Fed by L-Shaped Probe

A single layer triangular patch antenna fed by an L-shaped probe was investigated numerically by using FDTD (Finite Difference Time Domain) method. It achieves >40% impedance bandwidth (VSWR<2) and stable radiation pattern across the passband. The triangular patch antenna with two orientations of L-shaped probe has almost the same characteristics, such as impedance bandwidth and radiation pattern. The bandwidth vs feeding position was also investigated, the broadband characteristic can be observed when the feeding position is only in a small segment along the centerline.

The Effects of Cross Sectional Dimensions on the Behavior of L-Shaped RC Structural Members

The behavior of L-Shaped RC （reinforced concrete） shear walls was investigated in the Erciyes University Earthquake Investigation Laboratory under the influence of constant axial load together with reversed cyclic lateral load. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of cross sectional dimensions on the behavior of L-shaped structural members and to assess their earthquake performance. In order to investigate L-shaped RC structural members, the special experiment setup and four type of 1/2 scaled specimens which have different aspect ratio were constructed. The specimens were loaded in line with the major principal axes direction laterally. Axial load ratio was 0.1 and cross section height to thickness ratios were＇ 3：1, 5：1, 8：1, 10：1. Cross section thickness was 120 mm which corresponds to （360：120）, （600：120）, （960：120）, （1,200：120） wall legs cross sectional dimensions in mm. The specimens height was 1,500 mm, together with upper and lower slabs overall height was 2,000 mm. Concrete compression strength was 30 N/mm2, steel yield stress 420 N/mm2 and vertical reinforcement ratio was 1% for all specimens. According to the test results, the specimen of which the aspect ratio is 3 （360：120） has shown column behavior, the specimen of which the aspect ratio is 5 （600：120） has shown slender wall behavior and last two specimens of which the aspect ratios are 8 （960：120） and 10 （1,200：120） have shown squat wall behavior. When considering the cracking patterns and hysteretic behavior, since the aspect ratio 8, the specimens show flexure-shear interaction behavior and prone to brittle failure.

时变交通拥挤和需求随机的移动设施运营优化

为了优化移动设施(Mobile Facility,MF)的运营,在充分考虑时变交通状况和用户需求随机性的基础上,构建了一个两阶段随机规划模型,以期为决策者提供有力的工具。在第一阶段,模型针对MF的数量、时刻表和路径进行决策;第二阶段则聚焦于用户需求的分配和未满足服务量的确定。在求解此模型的过程中,本研究结合了时间依赖最短路径算法与L-shaped算法。在解决MF的移动路径和用户到达服务点的时间依赖最短路径问题时,将时变路段行驶速度离散化为分段函数,使得路段行驶时间成为连续分段线性函数,并且满足网络先进先出的原则,从而可以修改现有最短路径算法高效求解时间依赖最短路径。在L-shaped算法中,视一阶段模型为主问题,二阶段模型为子问题。首先通过求解主问题获得一阶段的决策变量,然后利用这些变量求解子问题,为主问题生成最优割。通过主、子问题的迭代交互,实现了对模型全局最优解的收敛,同时,通过加入有效不等式,使得算法能够快速收敛。在上海市嘉定区COVID-19核酸检测服务的MF实例中,对所提出的模型和算法进行了实证研究。结果表明:多割L-shaped算法结合有效不等式显著提升求解效率;同时,随着用户需求分布情况数量的增加,完美信息期望值和随机解价值均显著增加,这强调了在决策过程中获取准确信息和考虑时变交通状况与需求随机性的重要性。

Effects of Lay-up Types of Out-of-autoclave Prepregs on Preparation Quality of L-shape Composite Laminates

Effects of layer quantities and stacking sequences on L-shape composite manufacturing qualities in using OOA(out-of-autoclave)prepregs were studied.The mechanisms of air evacuated in 5 kinds of lay-ups were revealed by image analysis of cut surfaces and thickness measurements.Results show that air in OOA prepregs is evacuated in two ways.Most of the air is forced out of layers directly by vacuum before air accesses in prepregs closed.Very little entrapped air moves perpendicularly to outer layers under hydrostatic resin pressure.When a laminate contains less than 16 layers,voids can hardly be found in layers.When a laminate contains more than 16 layers,voids cannot be expelled completely during the window of vertical movement.As for stacking sequences,the synergetic effect of slip function and nest function determines the thickness and voids content of laminates.Results show that the average of single layer thickness of unidirectional layers is the lowest,and the average of single layer thickness of quasi-isotropic layers is the highest.The voids content of quasi isotropic is the highest,which is consistent with the theoretical analysis.

Physics-informed neural networks with residual/gradient-based adaptive sampling methods for solving partial differential equations with sharp solutions

We consider solving the forward and inverse partial differential equations(PDEs)which have sharp solutions with physics-informed neural networks(PINNs)in this work.In particular,to better capture the sharpness of the solution,we propose the adaptive sampling methods(ASMs)based on the residual and the gradient of the solution.We first present a residual only-based ASM denoted by ASMⅠ.In this approach,we first train the neural network using a small number of residual points and divide the computational domain into a certain number of sub-domains,then we add new residual points in the sub-domain which has the largest mean absolute value of the residual,and those points which have the largest absolute values of the residual in this sub-domain as new residual points.We further develop a second type of ASM(denoted by ASMⅡ)based on both the residual and the gradient of the solution due to the fact that only the residual may not be able to efficiently capture the sharpness of the solution.The procedure of ASMⅡis almost the same as that of ASMⅠ,and we add new residual points which have not only large residuals but also large gradients.To demonstrate the effectiveness of the present methods,we use both ASMⅠand ASMⅡto solve a number of PDEs,including the Burger equation,the compressible Euler equation,the Poisson equation over an Lshape domain as well as the high-dimensional Poisson equation.It has been shown from the numerical results that the sharp solutions can be well approximated by using either ASMⅠor ASMⅡ,and both methods deliver much more accurate solutions than the original PINNs with the same number of residual points.Moreover,the ASMⅡalgorithm has better performance in terms of accuracy,efficiency,and stability compared with the ASMⅠalgorithm.This means that the gradient of the solution improves the stability and efficiency of the adaptive sampling procedure as well as the accuracy of the solution.Furthermore,we also employ the similar adaptive sampling technique for the data points of boundary conditions(BCs)if the sharpness of the solution is near the boundary.The result of the L-shape Poisson problem indicates that the present method can significantly improve the efficiency,stability,and accuracy.

Study on power generations and dynamic responses of the bistable straight beam and the bistable L-shaped beam

In this paper, a simplified model of the bistable piezoelectric cantilever beam with magnets is established, and the potential energy of the bistable system is analyzed. We have proposed the bistable L-shaped beam structure, which has the same geometry dimensions of the bistable straight beam in the first time. The comparative study on power generations and dynamic responses of the bistable straight beam and the bistable L-shaped beam plays an important role in exploring excellent piezoelectric generator.The experiment structure includes the base layer and the piezoelectric layer. The harmonic excitation is given to the system.Theoretical analysis results show that the potential energy function of the system has two obvious steady potential wells. In addition, the depth of the upper potential well is different from that of the lower potential well when the gravity potential energy is considered. Experimental results demonstrate that the power generation for the straight beam is better than that of the horizontally placed L-shaped beam when the excitation amplitude is 450 m V. There is the existence that the energy harvesting capacity of the bistable L-shaped beam is better than that of the bistable straight beam when the excitation amplitude is 400 m V.Furthermore, the power generation of the bistable L-shaped beam with the upper potential well is obviously better than that of the bistable L-shaped beam with the lower potential well. In addition, comparing with the straight beam, the dynamic response of the bistable L-shaped beam is more complex when the external excitation frequency is changed. It is also observed that the distance between the magnets has the obvious influence on the dynamic response of the bistable system. It is very effective to select the appropriate distance between the magnets to improve the power generation of the bistable energy harvester under the fixed excitation conditions.

Experimental study on broadband bistable energy harvester with L-shaped piezoelectric cantilever beam

This paper presents an experimental study of the broadband energy harvesting and dynamic responses of an L-shaped piezoelectric cantilever beam.Experimental results show that the L-shaped piezoelectric beam generates two optimal voltage peaks when the horizontal beam size is similar to the vertical beam size.Several optimized L-shaped piezoelectric cantilever beam structures are proposed.Power generation using the inverted bistable L-shaped beam is better.It is observed experimentally that the inverted bistable L-shaped beam structure shows obvious bistable characteristics and hard spring characteristics.Furthermore,the corresponding relationship between the bistable phase portrait and the potential energy curve is found in the experiment.This is the first time that a phase portrait for stiffness hardening of an L-shaped beam has been found experimentally.These results can be applied to analysis of new piezoelectric power generation structures.

ACTIVE VIBRATION CONTROL OF FINITE L-SHAPED BEAM WITH TRAVELLING WAVE APPROACH

In this paper, the disturbance propagation and active vibration control of a finite L-shaped beam axe studied. The dynamic response of the structure is obtained by the travelling wave approach. The active vibration suppression of the finite L-shaped beam is performed based on the structural vibration power flow. In the numerical calculation, the influences of the near field effect of the error sensor and the small error of the control forces on the control results are all considered. The simulation results indicate that the structural vibration response in the medium and high frequency regions can be effectively computed by the travelling wave method. The effect of the active control by controlling the power flow is much better than that by controlling the acceleration in some cases. And the control results by the power flow method are slightly affected by the locations of the error sensor and the small error of the control forces.

Estimating DOA and polarization with spatially spread loop and dipole pair array

The nonuniform L-shaped spatially spread loop and dipole（SSLD） array whose inter-element spacing is greater than half a wavelength is studied. A joint parameter estimation algorithm of direction of arrival（DOA）, frequency and polarization is presented for plane-wave signals. The direct sampling and the corresponding delayed sampling data are used to construct the data correlation matrix. On the basis of the subspace theory and the least square method, the frequency and the steering vector of the whole array are obtained. According to the relationship of the array manifold vector between electric dipoles and magnetic loops,the polarization parameters are given. The unambiguous phase estimates are acquired by applying virtual baseline array transformation to the spatial steering vectors, and they are used as coarse references to disambiguate the cyclic phase ambiguities in phase differences between two adjacent array elements on the array,then the high accuracy DOA estimates are obtained. Closed-form solutions for each parameter are obtained. This method has advantages of lower calculation complexity and no parameter matching. The experiment results verify the effectiveness and feasibility of the presented algorithm.
