Contrast structure for singular singularly perturbed boundary value problem

The step-type contrast structure for a singular singularly perturbed problem is shown. By use of the method of boundary function, the formal asymptotic expansion is constructed. At the same time, based on sewing orbit smooth, the existence of the step- type solution and the uniform validity of the asymptotic expansion are proved. Finally, an example is given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the present results.

Step-like contrast structure for class of nonlinear singularly perturbed optimal control problem

The step-like contrast structure for a class of nonlinear singularly perturbed optimal control problems is considered. The existence of the step-like contrast structure for the singularly perturbed optimal control problem is proved by equivalence, which is based on the necessary conditions. The authors not only give the conditions under which there exists a step-like contrast structure, but also determine where the internal transition time is. Meanwhile, the uniformly valid asymptotic expansion of the step-like contrast structure solution is constructed by the direct scheme method. Finally, an example is presented to show the result.

On higher-dimensional contrast structure of singularly perturbed Dirichlet problem

In this paper,we address the existence and asymptotic analysis of higher-dimensional contrast structure of singularly perturbed Dirichlet problem.Based on the existence,an asymptotical analysis of a steplike contrast structure (i.e.,an internal transition layer solution) is studied by the boundary function method via a proposed smooth connection.In the framework of this paper,we propose a first integral condition,under which the existence of a heteroclinic orbit connecting two equilibrium points is ensured in a higher-dimensional fast phase space.Then,the step-like contrast structure is constructed,and the internal transition time is determined.Meanwhile,the uniformly valid asymptotical expansion of such an available step-like contrast structure is obtained.Finally,an example is presented to illustrate the result.

Contrastive analysis and crashworthiness optimization of two composite thin-walled structures

For the safety protection of passengers when train crashes occur, special structures are crucially needed as a kind of indispensable energy absorbing device. With the help of the structures, crash kinetic-energy can be completely absorbed or dissipated for the aim of safety. Two composite structures(circumscribed circle structure and inscribed circle structure) were constructed. In addition, comparison and optimization of the crashworthy characteristic of the two structures were carried out based on the method of explicit finite element analysis(FEA) and Kriging surrogate model. According to the result of Kriging surrogate model, conclusions can be safely drawn that the specific energy absorption(SEA) and ratio of specific energy absorption to initial peak force(REAF) of circumscribed circle structure are lager than those of inscribed circle structure under the same design parameters. In other words, circumscribed circle structure has better performances with higher energy-absorbing ability and lower initial peak force. Besides, error analysis was adopted and the result of which indicates that the Kriging surrogate model has high nonlinear fitting precision. What is more, the SEA and REAF optimum values of the two structures have been obtained through analysis, and the crushing results have been illustrated when the two structures reach optimum SEA and REAF.

The Role of the Native Language in Second Language Acquisition

The role that a learner＇s native language plays in his or her second language acquisition （SLA） has been the focus of many researchers in the past few decades. The article provides a brief review of the literature on the importance and the factors of native language influence in SLA.
