The material point method (MPM) can eliminate mesh distortion and thus is suitable for investigating geotechnical problems with large deformation. In this study, an advanced anisotropic critical state theory (ACST)-based soil model is implemented in MPM to study the response of strip footing resting on anisotropic sand. The capability of the model is verified by simulating several element tests and strip footing tests with different soil densities and fabric bedding plane orientations. For the footing problem with a vertical load, as the fabric bedding plane orientation increases, the bearing capacity decreases and its corresponding settlement increases. The failure pattern becomes asymmetrical when the bedding plane orientation or the loading direction is inclined. A comparison between the simulation results predicted by the anisotropic and isotropic models is made, which demonstrates that neglecting the fabric anisotropy may lead to the overestimation of the bearing capacity.展开更多

Recently, a particle-based multiscale simulation procedure is being developed, within the framework of the MPM, to describe the detonation process of energetic nano-composites from molecular to continuum level so that a multiscale equation of state could be formulated. In this letter, a multiscale MPM is proposed via both hierarchical and concurrent schemes to simulate the impact response between two microrods with different nanostructures. Preliminary results are presented to illustrate that a transition region is not required between different spatial scales with the proposed approach.展开更多

For this problem, it is important to establish the effective model and algorithm. This paper examines the decoupled conditions that affect the solution optimality to this problem. It proposes an effective model and solution method. Based on the look-ahead technique, it finds the number of time intervals to guarantee the solution optimality. Next, an efficient technique for finding the optimal solution via the interior point methods is described. Test cases, which include dispatching six units over 5 time intervals on the IEEE 30 test system with line flows and ramp constraints are presented. Results indicate that the computational effort as measured by iteration counts or execution time varies only modestly with the problem size.展开更多

Therefore, an algorithm for the coupling of FEM and MPM is proposed to take advantages of both methods. Furthermore, a conversion scheme of elements to particles is developed. Hence, the material domain is firstly discretized by finite elements, and then the distorted elements are automatically converted into MPM particles to avoid element entanglement. The interaction between finite elements and MPM particles is implemented based on the background grid in MPM framework. Numerical results are in good agreement with that of both FEM and MPM展开更多

文摘Low-order wavefront error account for a large proportion of wave aberrations.A compensation method for low order aberration of projection lithography objective based on Interior Point Method is presented.Compensation model between wavefront error and degree of movable lens freedom is established.Converting over-determined system to underdetermined system,the compensation is solved by Interior Point Method(IPM).The presented method is compared with direct solve the over-determined system.Then,other algorithm GA,EA and PS is compared with IPM.Simulation and experimental results show that the presented compensation method can obtained compensation with less residuals compared with direct solve the over-determined system.Also,the presented compensation method can reduce computation time and obtain results with less residuals compare with AGA,EA and PS.Moreover,after compensation,RMS of wavefront error of the experimental lithography projection objective decrease from 56.05 nm to 17.88 nm.
文摘On the basis of the formulations of the logarithmic barrier function and the idea of following the path of minimizers for the logarithmic barrier family of problems the so called "centralpath" for linear programming, we propose a new framework of primal-dual infeasible interiorpoint method for linear programming problems. Without the strict convexity of the logarithmic barrier function, we get the following results: (a) if the homotopy parameterμcan not reach to zero,then the feasible set of these programming problems is empty; (b) if the strictly feasible set is nonempty and the solution set is bounded, then for any initial point x, we can obtain a solution of the problems by this method; (c) if the strictly feasible set is nonempty and the solution set is unbounded, then for any initial point x, we can obtain a (?)-solution; and(d) if the strictly feasible set is nonempty and the solution set is empty, then we can get the curve x(μ), which towards to the generalized solutions.
文摘Ideal point method is one of the methods to solve multi-objective problem. It is applied to forest harvest regu-lation, and showed very good results by analyzing changes of quantitative indexes of forest resource structure before andafter the regulation. This method can be applied as one of the mathematical tools in forest harvest regulation.
