In this paper, deformation characteristics of toppling block at upper abutment, deforming tensile rip wedge in the middle part and deep fractures are comprehensively analyzed based on the geological conditions, construction methods and monitoring results of left abutment slope in Jinping I hydropower station. Safety analyses of surface and shallow-buried rock masses and the corresponding anchorage system are presented. The monitoring results indicate that the global stability of the large wedge block in the left abutment is effectively under control, and the abutment slope is stable in a global sense. After the completion of excavation, the deformations of toppling block at the top of the slope and deep fracture zone continue at a very low rate, which can be explained as "rock mass creep". Further monitoring and analysis are needed.展开更多

However, the disease may also be transmitted upon the interaction with the infected materials or surfaces in the environment. In this study, a deterministic model for bubonic plague disease with Yersinia pestis in the environment is developed and analyzed. Conditions for existence and stability of the equilibrium points are established. Using Jacobian method disease free equilibrium (DFE) point, E<sup>0</sup> was proved to be locally asymptotically stable. The Metzler matrix method was used to prove that the DFE was globally asymptotically stable when R<sub>0</sub> < 1. By applying Lyapunov stability theory and La Salles invariant principle, we prove that the endemic equilibrium point of system is globally asymptotically stable when R<sub>0</sub> > 1. Numerical simulations are done to verify the analytical predictions. The results show that bubonic plague can effectively be controlled or even be eradicated if efforts are made to ensure that there are effective and timely control strategies.展开更多

文摘The effect of energy on the natural environment has become increasingly severe as human consumption of fossil energy has increased.The capacity of the synchronous generators to keep working without losing synchronization when the system is exposed to severe faults such as short circuits is referred to as the power system’s transient stability.As the power system’s safe and stable operation and mechanism of action become more complicated,higher demands for accurate and rapid power system transient stability analysis are made.Current methods for analyzing transient stability are less accurate because they do not account formisclassification of unstable samples.As a result,this paper proposes a novel approach for analyzing transient stability.The key concept is to use deep forest(DF)and a neighborhood rough reduction approach together.Using the neighborhood rough sets,the original feature space is obtained by creating many optimal feature subsets at various granularity levels.Then,by deploying the DF cascade structure,the mapping connection between the transient stability state and the features is reinforced.The weighted voting technique is used in the learning process to increase the classification accuracy of unstable samples.When contrasted to current methods,simulation results indicate that the proposed approach outperforms them.

文摘In this paper,a linear/nonlinear switching active disturbance rejection control(SADRC)based decoupling control approach is proposed to deal with some difficult control problems in a class of multi-input multi-output(MIMO)systems such as multi-variables,disturbances,and coupling,etc.Firstly,the structure and parameter tuning method of SADRC is introduced into this paper.Followed on this,virtual control variables are adopted into the MIMO systems,making the systems decoupled.Then the SADRC controller is designed for every subsystem.After this,a stability analyzed method via the Lyapunov function is proposed for the whole system.Finally,some simulations are presented to demonstrate the anti-disturbance and robustness of SADRC,and results show SADRC has a potential applications in engineering practice.
文摘This paper presents the instability analysis of unsymmetrical rotor bearing system in accordance with the Campbell diagrams of the system, and concludes that the unstable regions stay in high speed regions with the increase of supporting stiffness and they decrease or disappear with the decrease of the inequality diametrical moments of the inertia and stiffness of shaft.

文摘To develop the guided spin-stabilized projectiles with high hit precision,a class of dual-spinning stabilized projectile equipped with canards in atmospheric is studied.The 7 degrees of freedom(DOF) nonlinear equations are written in a non-rolling body frame.The work reported here focuses on the ballistic property analysis including the spin rates,incidence angle,ballistic drift and lateral velocity.The dual-spinning projectiles are fundamentally less stable than conventional spin-stabilized projectiles.Hence,the gyroscopic stability is also studied in this paper.Theoretical models are given in this work,and the results of numerical analysis are discussed.
文摘Bubonic plague is a serious bacterial disease, mainly transmitted to human beings and rodents through flea bite. However, the disease may also be transmitted upon the interaction with the infected materials or surfaces in the environment. In this study, a deterministic model for bubonic plague disease with Yersinia pestis in the environment is developed and analyzed. Conditions for existence and stability of the equilibrium points are established. Using Jacobian method disease free equilibrium (DFE) point, E<sup>0</sup> was proved to be locally asymptotically stable. The Metzler matrix method was used to prove that the DFE was globally asymptotically stable when R<sub>0</sub> < 1. By applying Lyapunov stability theory and La Salles invariant principle, we prove that the endemic equilibrium point of system is globally asymptotically stable when R<sub>0</sub> > 1. Numerical simulations are done to verify the analytical predictions. The results show that bubonic plague can effectively be controlled or even be eradicated if efforts are made to ensure that there are effective and timely control strategies.
