Based on a fixed theorem and stability definition, sufficient criteria are established for the existence and stability of multiple equilibria of complex-valued recurrent neural networks. The number of stable equilibria is larger than that of real-valued recurrent neural networks, which can be used to achieve high-capacity associative memories. One numerical example is provided to show the effectiveness and superiority of the presented results.展开更多

Firstly, based on the concept of Filippov solutions for right-hand discontinuous systems, some sufficient conditions for general decay synchronization of the considered system are obtained via designing a nonlinear feedback controller and applying discontinuous differential equation theory, Lyapunov functional methods and some inequality techniques. Finally, one numerical example is given to verify the effectiveness of the proposed theoretical results. The general decay synchronization considered in this article can better estimate the convergence rate of the system, and the exponential synchronization and polynomial synchronization can be seen as its special cases.展开更多

Under some criteria, CGNNs with this AF are shown to possess at least 5^(n)EPs, of which 3^(n)EPs are locally μ-stable. Compared with the saturated AF or the sigmoidal AF, CGNNs with the designed AF can produce many more total/stable EPs. Therefore, when CGNNs with the designed discontinuous AF are applied to associative memory, they can store more prototype patterns. Moreover, the AF is expanded to a more general version to further increase the number of total/stable equilibria. The CGNNs with the expanded AF are found to produce(2k+3)^(n)EPs, of which (k+2)^(n)EPs are locally μ-stable. By adjusting two parameters in the AF, the number of sufficient conditions ensuring the μ-stability of multiple equilibria can be decreased. This finding implies that the computational complexity can be greatly reduced.Two numerical examples and an application to associative memory are illustrated to verify the correctness of the obtained results.展开更多

To embody the singularity of the crack tip, the triangle function is introduced directly. What’s more, the maximum loop stress fracture criterion is adopted to determine the extension direction in extended material domains, and the true extension distance for each load step is determined by reducing or increasing half the current trial extension distance until the equivalent stress intensity factor reaches the type I fracture toughness of material. Finally, with the improved XFEM, the interface crack propagation in a cantilever deep beam and concrete gravity dam are simulated without re-meshing respectively and their failure modes are also analyzed.展开更多
