The factors contribute to the strength of premiumcasing connections are studied with FEA and full-scale test. The criterions are presented thatensure the connection's strength higher than the pipe. At the same time, the method is given todecrease the peak stress of the connection so as to improve its anticorruption property. At last,full-scale tests are done to test the strength of the connections designed with the methoddescribed, the results show that the connection's strength is higher than the pipe. This indicatedthat the method described is effective in designing premium casing connection.展开更多

In this work, we investigate how the topological probability p and connection strength C affect the activities of discrete neural networks with small-world (SW) connections. Network elements are described by two-dimensional map neurons (2DMNs) with the values of parameters at which no activity occurs. It is found that when the value of p is smaller or larger, there are no active neurons in the network, no matter what the value of connection strength is; for a given appropriate connection strength, there is an intermediate range of topological probability where the activity of 2DMN network is induced and enhanced. On the other hand, for a given intermediate topological probability level, there exists an optimal value of connection strength such that the frequency of activity reaches its maximum. The possible mechanism behind the action of topological probability and connection strength is addressed based on the bifurcation method. Furthermore, the effects of noise and transmission delay on the activity of neural network are also studied.展开更多
