Dynamic Response of Sea-Crossing Rail-cum-Road Cable-Stayed Bridge Influenced by Random Wind–Wave–Undercurrent Coupling

Sea-crossing bridges are affected by random wind–wave–undercurrent coupling loads, due to the complex marine environment. The dynamic response of long-span Rail-cum-Road cable-stayed bridges is particularly severe under their influence, potentially leading to safety problems. In this paper, a fluid–structure separation solution method is implemented using Ansys–Midas co-simulation, in order to solve the above issues effectively while using less computational resources. The feasibility of the method is verified by comparing the tower top displacement response with relevant experimental data. From time and frequency domain perspectives, the displacement and acceleration responses of the sea-crossing Rail-cum-Road cable-stayed bridge influenced by wave-only, wind–wave, and wind–wave–undercurrent coupling are comparatively studied. The results indicate that the displacement and acceleration of the front bearing platform top are more significant than those of the rear bearing platform. The dominant frequency under wind–wave–undercurrent coupling is close to the natural vibration frequencies of several bridge modes,such that wind–wave–undercurrent coupling is more likely to cause a resonance effect in the bridge. Compared with the wave-only and wind–wave coupling, wind–wave–undercurrent coupling can excite bridges to produce larger displacement and acceleration responses: at the middle of the main girder span, compared with the wave-only case, the maximum displacement in the transverse bridge direction increases by 23.58% and 46.95% in the wind–wave and wind–wave–undercurrent coupling cases, respectively;at the tower top, the variation in the amplitude of the displacement and acceleration responses of wind–wave and wind–wave–undercurrent coupling are larger than those in the wave-only case, where the acceleration change amplitude of the tower top is from-0.93 to 0.86 m/s^(2) in the waveonly case, from-2.2 to 2.1 m/s^(2) under wind–wave coupling effect, and from-2.6 to 2.65 m/s^(2) under wind–wave–undercurrent coupling effect, indicating that the tower top is mainly affected by wind loads, but wave and undercurrent loads cannot be neglected.

CONCEPTUAL ANALYSIS AND RANDOM ATTRACTOR FOR DISSIPATIVE RANDOM DYNAMICAL SYSTEMS

The aim of this work is to understand better the long time behaviour of asymptotically compact random dynamical systems （RDS）, which can be generated by solutions of some stochastic partial differential equations on unbounded domains. The conceptual analysis for the long time behavior of RDS will be done through some examples. An application of those analysis will be demonstrated through the proof of the existence of random attractors for asymptotically compact dissipative RDS.

Distributed dynamic event-based finite-time dissipative synchronization control for semi-Markov switched fuzzy cyber-physical systems against random packet losses

This paper is concerned with the finite-time dissipative synchronization control problem of semi-Markov switched cyber-physical systems in the presence of packet losses, which is constructed by the Takagi–Sugeno fuzzy model. To save the network communication burden, a distributed dynamic event-triggered mechanism is developed to restrain the information update. Besides, random packet dropouts following the Bernoulli distribution are assumed to occur in sensor to controller channels, where the triggered control input is analyzed via an equivalent method containing a new stochastic variable. By establishing the mode-dependent Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional with augmented terms, the finite-time boundness of the error system limited to strict dissipativity is studied. As a result of the help of an extended reciprocally convex matrix inequality technique, less conservative criteria in terms of linear matrix inequalities are deduced to calculate the desired control gains. Finally, two examples in regard to practical systems are provided to display the effectiveness of the proposed theory.

Fault Tolerant Synchronization for a General Complex DynamicalNetwork with Random Delay

A fault tolerant synchronization strategy is proposed to synchronize a complex network with random time delays and sensor faults. Random time delays over the network transmission are described by using Markov chains. Based on the Lyapunov stability theory and stochastic analysis, several passive fault tolerant synchronization criteria are derived,which can be described in the form of linear matrix inequalities. Finally,a numerical simulation example is carried out and the results show the validity of the proposed fault tolerant synchronization controller.

UPPER SEMI-CONTINUITY OF RANDOM ATTRACTORS FOR A NON- AUTONOMOUS DYNAMICAL SYSTEM WITH A WEAK CONVERGENCE CONDITION

In this paper,we develop the criterion on the upper semi-continuity of random attractors by a weak-to-weak limit replacing the usual norm-to-norm limit.As an application,we obtain the convergence of random attractors for non-autonomous stochastic reactiondiffusion equations on unbounded domains,when the density of stochastic noises approaches zero.The weak convergence of solutions is proved by means of Alaoglu weak compactness theorem.A differentiability condition on nonlinearity is omitted,which implies that the existence conditions for random attractors are sufficient to ensure their upper semi-continuity.These results greatly strengthen the upper semi-continuity notion that has been developed in the literature.

We present our Monte Carlo results of the random-bond Potts ferromagnet with the Olson-Young self-dual distribution of quenched disorders in two dimensions. By exploring the short-time scaling dynamics, we find the universal power-law critical behavior of the magnetization and Binder cumulant at the critical point, and thus obtain estimates of the dynamic exponent z and magnetic exponent η, as well as the exponent θ. Our special attention is paid to the dynamic process for the q = 8 Potts model.

Dynamics and response reshaping of nonlinear predator-prey system undergoing random abrupt disturbances

An actual ecological predator-prey system often undergoes random environmental mutations owing to the impact of natural disasters and man-made destruction, which may destroy the balance between the species. In this paper,the stochastic dynamics of the nonlinear predator-prey system considering random environmental mutations is investigated, and a feedback control strategy is proposed to reshape the response of the predator-prey system against random abrupt environmental mutations. A delayed Markov jump system(MJS) is established to model such a predator-prey system. A novel first integral is constructed which leads to better approximation solutions of the ecosystem. Then, by applying the stochastic averaging method based on this novel first integral, the stochastic response of the predator-prey system is investigated, and an analytical feedback control is designed to reshape the response of the ecosystem from the disturbed state back to the undisturbed one.Numerical simulations finally illustrate the accuracy and effectiveness of the proposed procedure.

Effects of refractory period on dynamical range in excitable networks

Effects of refractory period on the dynamical range in excitable networks are studied by computer simulations and theoretical analysis. The first effect is that the maximum or peak of the dynamical range appears when the largest eigenvalue of adjacent matrix is larger than one. We present a modification of the theory of the critical point by considering the correlation between excited nodes and their neighbors, which is brought by the refractory period. Our analysis provides the interpretation for the shift of the peak of the dynamical range. The effect is negligible when the average degree of the network is large. The second effect is that the dynamical range increases as the length of refractory period increases, and it is independent of the average degree. We present the mechanism of the second effect. As the refractory period increases,the saturated response decreases. This makes the bottom boundary of the dynamical range smaller and the dynamical range extend.

Dynamic random channel reservation protocol

Demand assignment MAC protocols have been used widely in wireless networks. It can effectively utilize wireless bandwidth. Some strategies can he used by demand assignment MAC protocols to further improve their efficiency. The concept of transmit probability is introduced. This concept allows a request slot to be assigned to many different traffic classes at the same time. Based on it, the dynamic random channel reservation （DRCR） protocol is proposed. The DRCR protocol operates dynamically by observing the traffic conditions. It uses information about the recent traffic conditions to assign transmit probability with which an mobile station can select request slots with lower traffic. The performance of DRCR is evaluated and compared with RSCA. The results show that DRCR is more stable than RSCA, it offers shorter delays of requests than RSCA and can relieve heavily stressed traffic classes faster than RSCA.
