The cyclical pulse load consisting of a haversine load time and a rest period is adopted to simulate the actual vehicle load, and the permanent strain model under the repeated load is derived from the rheological and viscoelastic theories. Subsequently, the model is validated by the results of uniaxial repeated load permanent deformation tests of three asphalt mixtures. It is indicated that the proportion of residual viscoelastic strain to permanent strain decreases gradually with the load cycles, and only accounts for 2% to 3% during most of the loading period. If the rest period is long, the residual viscoelastic strain is little. The rest period of the actual vehicle load may be long enough, so the residual viscoelasticity can be ignored and the simplified model can be obtained. The proposed model can well describe the permanent deformation of asphalt mixtures under repeated load.展开更多

By the reduetive perturbation method, we derive the rotational KdV (rKdV for short) equation. And then, with the help of Jaeobi elliptie functions, we obtain various periodic structures for these Rossby waves. It is shown that dissipation is very important for these periodic structures of rational form.展开更多

It is generalized that the force is directly proportional to a power function of the distance in a classical spring-oscillator system. The differential equation of the generalized model was given. Simulations were conducted with different power values. The results show that the solution of the generalized equation is a periodic function. The expressions of the amplitude and the period(frequency) of the generalized equation were derived by the physical method. All the simulation results coincide with the calculation results of the derived expressions. A special function also was deduced and proven to be convergent in the theoretical analysis. The limit value of the special function also was derived. The generalized model can be used in solving a type of differential equation and to generate periodic waveforms.展开更多

Methods: we searched Pubmed Database, ChinaBiomedical Literature Database, VIP Database, ChinaNet for studies. Then evaluated these studies in order to findthe researches in line with the requirements of the study; Each relevant research was carefully read to extractrelevant data; The current perception threshold (CPT) value of median nerve and sural nerve were compared at2000Hz, 250Hz and 5Hz between patients with DPN and the normal control group. Results: Finally 10 articles thatmeet the standards were included, with 1054 cases in the patient group and 719 cases in the normal group. The CPTvalues of median nerve and sural nerve at 2000 Hz, 250 Hz and 5 Hz of patients group were higher than those ofnormal control group (P 〈0.05 for all). Conclusion: Systematic reviews showed that the sensitivity of the mediannerve and sural nerve in DPN patients was generally reduced. Sensory nerve quantitative detector could detectnerve damage early, accurately and monitor the effect treatment in patients with DPN.展开更多
