Effectiveness of Epidemic Control in Shopping Centers Based on Anylogic Platform: A Case Study of Handan Weilaishi Shopping Center

From the perspective of COVID-19’s prevention and control, to test effectiveness of existing control measures for shopping center buildings, taking Weilaishi Shopping Center of Handan City as an example, Anylogic software is used for analogue simulation of the whole shopping process. According to existing control means of Weilaishi Shopping Center, the model sets three different simulation conditions: “no control state”, “restricting entrance and exit opening” and “increasing epidemic prevention distance”. The epidemic prevention effects of different control methods are intuitively displayed through the simulated output thermal diagram and the statistical diagram of the number of infected people. The results show that restricting the opening of entrances and exits can reduce the number of infected people by 36%, and increasing the epidemic prevention distance can reduce the number of infected people by 89.8%. Both control methods can play a certain epidemic prevention effect.

Control of mean and fluctuating forces on a circular cylinder at high Reynolds numbers

A narrow strip is used to control mean and fluctuating forces on a circular cylinder at Reynolds numbers from 2.0 ×10^4 to 1.0 ×^ 10^5. The axes of the strip and cylinder are parallel. The control parameters are strip width ratio and strip position characterized by angle of attack and distance from the cylinder. Wind tunnel tests show that the vortex shedding from both sides of the cylinder can be suppressed, and mean drag and fluctuating lift on the cylinder can be reduced if the strip is installed in an effective zone downstream of the cylinder. A phenomenon of mono-side vortex shedding is found. The strip-induced local changes of velocity profiles in the near wake of the cylinder are measured, and the relation between base suction and peak value in the power spectrum of fluctuating lift is studied. The control mechanism is then discussed from different points of view.

Some Group Runs Based Multivariate Control Charts for Monitoring the Process Mean Vector

In this article, we propose two control charts namely, the “Multivariate Group Runs’ (MV-GR-M)” and the “Multivariate Modified Group Runs’ (MV-MGR-M)” control charts, based on the multivariate normal processes, for monitoring the process mean vector. Methods to obtain the design parameters and operations of these control charts are discussed. Performances of the proposed charts are compared with some existing control charts. It is verified that, the proposed charts give a significant reduction in the out-of-control “Average Time to Signal” (ATS) in the zero state, as well in the steady state compared to the Hotelling’s T2 and the synthetic T2 control charts.

Mean field games of controls:Propagation of monotonicities

The theory of Mean Field Game of Controls considers a class of mean field games where the interaction is through the joint distribution of the state and control.It is well known that,for standard mean field games,certain monotonicity conditions are crucial to guarantee the uniqueness of mean field equilibria and then the global wellposedness for master equations.In the literature the monotonicity condition could be the Lasry–Lions monotonicity,the displacement monotonicity,or the anti-monotonicity conditions.In this paper,we investigate these three types of monotonicity conditions for Mean Field Games of Controls and show their propagation along the solutions to the master equations with common noises.In particular,we extend the displacement monotonicity to semi-monotonicity,whose propagation result is new even for standard mean field games.This is the first step towards the global wellposedness theory for master equations of Mean Field Games of Controls.

Classical state feedback controller for nonlinear systems using mean value theorem： closed Ioop-FOC of PMSM motor application

The problem of state feedback controllers for a class of Takagi-Sugeno （T-S） Lipschitz nonlinear systems is investigated. A simple systematic and useful synthesis method is proposed based on the use of the differential mean value theorem （DMVT） and convex theory. The proposed design approach is based on the mean value theorem （MVT） to express the nonlinear error dynamics as a convex combination of known matrices with time varying coefficients as linear parameter varying （LPV） systems. Using the Lyapunov theory, stability conditions are obtained and expressed in terms of linear matrix inequalities （LMIs）. The controller gains are then obtained by solving linear matrix inequalities. The effectiveness of the proposed approach for closed loop-field oriented control （CL-FOC） of permanent magnet synchronous machine （PMSM） drives is demonstrated through an illustrative simulation for the proof of these approaches. Furthermore, an extension for controller design with parameter uncertainties and perturbation performance is discussed.
