Numbering homoclinic points of diffeomorphisms in the plane

In this paper we introduce a numerical conjugacy invariant for planar maps with homoclinic points. This invariant can be estimated based on partial information about the location of compact pieces of the stable and unstable manifolds of the system. The invariant is also related to topological entropy, and we indicate a method by which good bounds on the entropy of a system can be obtained.

Turbulence Energy Distribution in the Stokes Layer

Using the method of matched asymptotic expansions, an analytical solution of the balance equation for turbulence energy is constructed for a shallow basin (sea) in which the fluid depth does not exceed the Stokes layer thickness. In this case, a gradient-viscous balance is established with the turbulent viscosity being balanced mainly by the pressure gradient. It is shown that nonlinear boundary layers attributable to turbulence energy diffusion are formed near the bottom and the free surface (or ice). In the neighborhood of the point of maximum flow velocity (if this maximum is attained inside the flow), a nonlinear internal boundary layer also develops. Outside these layers, the turbulence energy generation is in the first approximation balanced by the energy dissipation. Asymptotic solutions for the boundary layers are constructed.     

The topological optimization for truss structures with stress constraints based on the exist-null combined model

A new exist-null combined model is proposed for the structural topology optimization. The model is applied to the topology optimization of the truss with stress constraints. Satisfactory computational result can be obtained with more rapid and more stable convergence as compared with the cross-sectional optimization. This work also shows that the presence of independent and continuous topological variable motivates the research of structural topology optimization.

TOPOLOGY AND VORTEX STRUCTURES OF A CURVING TURBINE CASCADE WITH TIP CLEARANCE (Ⅰ)- EXPERIMENTAL MODEL AND TOPOLOGICAL FLOW PATTERNS ON BOTH ENDWALLS AND BLADE SURFACES

By means of ink trace visualization of the flows in conventional straight, positively curved and negatively curved cascades with tip clearance, and measurement of the aerodynamic parameters in the transverse section, and by appling topology theory, the structures on both endwalls and blade surfaces were analyzed. Compared with conventional straight cascade, blade positive curving eliminates the separation line of the upper passage vortex and leads the secondary vortex to change from close separation to open separation, while blade negative curving effects merely the positions of singular points and the intensities and scales of vortex.

单裂隙流-固耦合渗流的试验研究

通过对较大尺寸的单裂隙岩体试块进行不同侧面加载的渗流试验,在实验室里开展了单裂隙流 固耦合渗流研究,模拟核废料贮藏库的围岩自由面的最危险部位的渗流量 应力耦合状态。分析了裂隙岩体渗流与应力的耦合机理,获得了几种典型情况下的试验数据,并拟合出不同应力条件下单裂隙岩体渗流量与应力间数学经验公式。从而说明并非任一方向的应力增加都能使渗流量减小,而是裂隙岩体的渗流量随着双向压应力的增加而减少,随着平行于裂隙面方向的单向压应力的增加而增加。缝隙开度虽然随着法向应力的增加而逐渐减小,但最终不可能完全闭合,所以,此时流量不可能为零。同时,在试验过程中还通过闭环控制来实现被加载面的均匀受力,这为大尺寸岩体试验提供了一种很好的加载方法。     

类升力体外形高超声速粘性绕流拓扑结构分析

采用交替方向隐式分解的隐式NND格式求解全N-S方程模拟“类升力体”外形在高超声速下的大攻角流动,给出了“类升力体”外形表面极限流线随攻角变化的拓扑结构及40°攻角下垂直于体轴的横截面流线拓扑结构。结果表明:类升力体外形三维流场结构十分复杂,攻角从0°～40°变化时,背风面表面极限流线依次由不分离、开式分离向起始于鞍、结点组合的高阶奇点的分离方式转化,翼面横向分离亦随攻角增大而增大;垂直于体轴的横截面流动拓扑结构与文献[2]给出的理论分析一致。     

A Grobman–Hartman Theorem for Control Systems

We consider the problem of locally linearizing a control system via topological transformations. According to [2,3], there is no naive generalization of the classical Grobman–Hartman theorem for ODEs to control systems: a generic control system, when viewed as a set of under-determined differential equations parametrized by the control, cannot be linearized using pointwise transformations on the state and the control values. However, if we allow the transformations to depend on the control at a functional level (open loop transformations), we are able to prove a version of the Grobman–Hartman theorem for control systems.     

Soliton and other solutions to the (1+2)-dimensional chiral nonlinear Schrödinger equation

The (1+2)-dimensional chiral nonlinear Schrödinger equation (2D-CNLSE) as a nonlinear evolution equation is considered and studied in a detailed manner. To this end, a complex transform is firstly adopted to arrive at the real and imaginary parts of the model, and then, the modified Jacobi elliptic expansion method is formally utilized to derive soliton and other solutions of the 2D-CNLSE. The exact solutions presented in this paper can be classified as topological and nontopological solitons as well as Jacobi elliptic function solutions.
