It is shown that a random variable shape parameter strategy can improve the accuracy of approximating higher order derivatives with Radial Basis Function methods. The method is used to solve fourth order boundary value problems. The use and location of ghost points are examined in order to enforce the extra boundary conditions that are necessary to make a fourth-order problem well posed. The use of ghost points versus solving an overdetermined linear system via least squares is studied. For a general fourth-order boundary value problem, the recommended approach is to either use one of two novel sets of ghost centers introduced here or else to use a least squares approach. When using either ghost centers or least squares, the random variable shape parameter strategy results in significantly better accuracy than when a constant shape parameter is used.展开更多

(2019) were obtained by Talantsev (2019) in an approach based on an ingenious mix of the Ginzberg-Landau (GL), the Werthamer, Helfand and Hohenberg (WHH), and the Gor’kov, etc., theories which have individually been employed for the same purpose for a long time. Up to the lowest temperature (TL) in each of these data-sets, similarly accurate fits have also been obtained by Malik and Varma (2023) in a radically different approach based on the Bethe-Salpeter equation (BSE) supplemented by the Matsubara and the Landau quantization prescriptions. For T TL, however, while the (GL, WHH, etc.)-based approach leads to Hc2(0) ≈ 100 T, the BSE-based approach leads to about twice this value even at 1 K. In this paper, a fit to one of the said data-sets is obtained for the first time via a thermodynamic approach which, up to TL, is as good as those obtained via the earlier approaches. While this is interesting per se, another significant result of this paper is that for T TL it corroborates the result of the BSE-based approach.展开更多

文摘The crack fault is one of the most common faults in the rotor system,and researchers have paid close attention to its fault diagnosis.However,most studies focus on discussing the dynamic response characteristics caused by the crack rather than estimating the crack depth and position based on the obtained vibration signals.In this paper,a novel crack fault diagnosis and location method for a dual-disk hollow shaft rotor system based on the Radial basis function(RBF)network and Pattern recognition neural network(PRNN)is presented.Firstly,a rotor system model with a breathing crack suitable for a short-thick hollow shaft rotor is established based on the finite element method,where the crack's periodic opening and closing pattern and different degrees of crack depth are considered.Then,the dynamic response is obtained by the harmonic balance method.By adjusting the crack parameters,the dynamic characteristics related to the crack depth and position are analyzed through the amplitude-frequency responses and waterfall plots.The analysis results show that the first critical speed,first subcritical speed,first critical speed amplitude,and super-harmonic resonance peak at the first subcritical speed can be utilized for the crack fault diagnosis.Based on this,the RBF network and PRNN are adopted to determine the depth and approximate location of the crack respectively by taking the above dynamic characteristics as input.Test results show that the proposed method has high fault diagnosis accuracy.This research proposes a crack detection method adequate for the hollow shaft rotor system,where the crack depth and position are both unknown.

文摘Decision implication is a form of decision knowledge represen-tation,which is able to avoid generating attribute implications that occur between condition attributes and between decision attributes.Compared with other forms of decision knowledge representation,decision implication has a stronger knowledge representation capability.Attribute granularization may facilitate the knowledge extraction of different attribute granularity layers and thus is of application significance.Decision implication canonical basis(DICB)is the most compact set of decision implications,which can efficiently represent all knowledge in the decision context.In order to mine all deci-sion information on decision context under attribute granulating,this paper proposes an updated method of DICB.To this end,the paper reduces the update of DICB to the updates of decision premises after deleting an attribute and after adding granulation attributes of some attributes.Based on this,the paper analyzes the changes of decision premises,examines the properties of decision premises,designs an algorithm for incrementally generating DICB,and verifies its effectiveness through experiments.In real life,by using the updated algorithm of DICB,users may obtain all decision knowledge on decision context after attribute granularization.

文摘The basis weight control loop of the papermaking process is a non-linear system with time-delay and time-varying.It is impractical to identify a model that can restore the model of real papermaking process.Determining a more accurate identification model is very important for designing the controller of the control system and maintaining the stable operation of the papermaking process.In this study,a strange nonchaotic particle swarm optimization(SNPSO)algorithm is proposed to identify the models of real papermaking processes,and this identification ability is significantly enhanced compared with particle swarm optimization(PSO).First,random particles are initialized by strange nonchaotic sequences to obtain high-quality solutions.Furthermore,the weight of linear attenuation is replaced by strange nonchaotic sequence and the time-varying acceleration coefficients and a mutation rule with strange nonchaotic characteristics are utilized in SNPSO.The above strategies effectively improve the global and local search ability of particles and the ability to escape from local optimization.To illustrate the effectiveness of SNPSO,step response data are used to identify the models of real industrial processes.Compared with classical PSO,PSO with timevarying acceleration coefficients(PSO-TVAC)and modified particle swarm optimization(MPSO),the simulation results demonstrate that SNPSO has stronger identification ability,faster convergence speed,and better robustness.
文摘The Metric of a graph plays an essential role in the arrangement of different dimensional structures and finding their basis in various terms.The metric dimension of a graph is the selection of the minimum possible number of vertices so that each vertex of the graph is distinctively defined by its vector of distances to the set of selected vertices.This set of selected vertices is known as the metric basis of a graph.In applied mathematics or computer science,the topic of metric basis is considered as locating number or locating set,and it has applications in robot navigation and finding a beacon set of a computer network.Due to the vast applications of this concept in computer science,optimization problems,and also in chemistry enormous research has been conducted.To extend this research to a four-dimensional structure,we studied the metric basis of the Klein bottle and proved that the Klein bottle has a constant metric dimension for the variation of all its parameters.Although the metric basis is variying in 3 and 4 values when the values of its parameter change,it remains constant and unchanged concerning its order or number of vertices.The methodology of determining the metric basis or locating set is based on the distances of a graph.Therefore,we proved the main theorems in distance forms.

文摘The shallow-water temperature profile is typically parameterized using a few empirical orthogonal function(EOF)coefficients.However,when the experimental area is poorly known or highly variable,the adaptability of the EOFs will be significantly reduced.In this study,a new set of basis functions,generated by combining the internal-wave eigenmodes with the average temperature gradient,is developed for characterizing the temperature perturbations.Temperature profiles recorded by a thermistor chain in the South China Sea in 2015 are processed and analyzed.Compared to the EOFs,the new set of basis functions has higher reconstruction accuracy and adaptability;it is also more stable in ocean regions that have internal waves.

文摘The purpose of this paper is to present the class of atomic basis functions(ABFs)which are of exponential type and are denoted by EFupn(x,ω).While ABFs of the algebraic type are already represented in the numerical modeling of various problems inmathematical physics and computationalmechanics,ABFs of the exponential type have not yet been sufficiently researched.These functions,unlike the ABFs of the algebraic type Fupn(x),contain the tension parameterω,which gives them additional approximation properties.Exponential monomials up to the nth degree can be described exactly by the linear combination of the functions EFupn(x,ω).The function EFupn for n=0 is called the“mother”ABF of the exponential type,i.e.,EFup0(x,ω)≡Eup(x,ω).In other words,the functions EFupn(x,ω)are elements of the linear vector space EUPn and retain all the properties of their“mother”function Eup(x,ω).Thus,this paper,in terms of its content and purpose,can be understood as a sequel of the article by Brajcic Kurbasa et al.,which shows the basic properties and application of the basis function Eup(x,ω).This paper presents,in an analogous way,the development and application of the exponential basis functions EFupn(x,ω).Here,for the first time,expressions for calculating the values of the functions EFupn(x,ω)and their derivatives are given in a form suitable for application in numerical analyses,which is shown in the verification examples of the approximations of known functions.
文摘This paper concerns the implementation of the orthogonal polynomials using the Galerkin method for solving Volterra integro-differential and Fredholm integro-differential equations. The constructed orthogonal polynomials are used as basis functions in the assumed solution employed. Numerical examples for some selected problems are provided and the results obtained show that the Galerkin method with orthogonal polynomials as basis functions performed creditably well in terms of absolute errors obtained.

文摘An image can be degraded due to many environmental factors like foggy or hazy weather,low light conditions,extra light conditions etc.Image captured under the poor light conditions is generally known as non-uniform illumination image.Non-uniform illumination hides some important information present in an image during the image capture Also,it degrades the visual quality of image which generates the need for enhancement of such images.Various techniques have been present in literature for the enhancement of such type of images.In this paper,a novel architecture has been proposed for enhancement of poor illumination images which uses radial basis approximations based BEMD(Bi-dimensional Empirical Mode Decomposition).The enhancement algorithm is applied on intensity and saturation components of image.Firstly,intensity component has been decomposed into various bi-dimensional intrinsic mode function and residue by using sifting algorithm.Secondly,some linear transformations techniques have been applied on various bidimensional intrinsic modes obtained and residue and further on joining the transformed modes with residue,enhanced intensity component is obtained.Saturation part of an image is then enhanced in accordance to the enhanced intensity component.Final enhanced image can be obtained by joining the hue,enhanced intensity and enhanced saturation parts of the given image.The proposed algorithm will not only give the visual pleasant image but maintains the naturalness of image also.

文摘A B-spline Interpolation Transport Solver(BITS) based on a collocation method is developed. It solves transport equations as a generalized interpolation problem, taking the first-order accuracy in time and the second-order accuracy in space along with a predictor–corrector or under-relaxation iteration method. Numerical tests show that BITS can solve one-dimensional transport equations for tokamak plasma more accurately without additional computation cost, compared to the finite difference method transport solver which is widely used in existing tokamak transport codes.
