Dynamic investigation of triangles inscribed in a circle,which tend to an equilateral triangle

We present a geometrical investigation of the process of creating an infinite sequence of triangles inscribed in a circle, whose areas, perimeters and lengths of radii of the inscribed circles tend to a limit in a monotonous manner.

First, using geometrical software, we investigate four theorems that represent interesting geometrical properties, after which we present formal proofs that rest on a combination between different fields of mathematics: trigonometry, algebra and geometry, and the use of the concept of standard deviation that is taken from statistics.     

Statistical and Geometrical Way of Model Selection for a Family of Subdivision Schemes

The objective of this article is to introduce a generalized algorithm to produce the m-point n-ary approximating subdivision schemes(for any integer m, n ≥ 2). The proposed algorithm has been derived from uniform B-spline blending functions. In particular, we study statistical and geometrical/traditional methods for the model selection and assessment for selecting a subdivision curve from the proposed family of schemes to model noisy and noisy free data. Moreover, we also discuss the deviation of subdivision curves generated by proposed family of schemes from convex polygonal curve. Furthermore, visual performances of the schemes have been presented to compare numerically the Gibbs oscillations with the existing family of schemes.     

Numerical Analysis of Structural Systems Subjected to Non-Gaussian Random Fields

This paper deals with the stochastic response of structures loaded by non-Gaussian random fields. A finite element model is used to describe a cantilever beam assuming both linear and non-linear behavior. The cross-correlated stochastic field is generated by a numerical procedure based on the translation processes theory. The marginal distribution of the load is assumed to be lognormal and the correlation structure is based on the second-order Markov process. The statistical analysis of the results highlights the effects of the involved non-linearity and non-Gaussianity properties on the structures response.

定量开采条件下径向渗流的液固耦合问题

考虑到多孔介质渗透率随孔隙度变化的特点，建立了力学模型，研究定量抽放问题；对于广义平面应力状态下的非线性渗流耦合问题，提出了解的构造方法和解耦方法；求出了耦合条件下的孔隙压力，多孔介质总应力、总应变和总位移的解析解；进行了实例计算，并与Biot理论进行了对比，结果表明两种理论的差别很大。因此在渗透系数有较明显变化的场舍下不能采用Biot理论进行分析。

Experimental study of non-linear energy pumping occurring at a single fast frequency

Experimental verification of passive non-linear energy pumping in a two-degree-of-freedom system comprising a damped linear oscillator coupled to an essentially non-linear attachment is carried out. In the experiments presented the non-linear attachment interacts with a single linear mode and, hence, energy pumping occurs at a single ‘fast’ frequency in the neighborhood of the eigenfrequency of the linear mode. Good agreement between simulated and experimental results was observed, in spite of the strongly (essentially) non-linear and transient nature of the dynamics of the system considered. The experiments bear out earlier predictions that a significant fraction of the energy introduced directly to a linear structure by an external impulsive (broadband) load can be transferred (pumped) to an essentially non-linear attachment, and dissipated there locally without spreading back to the system. In addition, the reported experimental results confirm that (a) non-linear energy pumping in systems of coupled oscillators can occur only above a certain threshold of the input energy, and (b) there is an optimal value of the energy input at which a maximum portion of the energy is absorbed and dissipated at the NES.     

光滑试样表面疲劳裂纹演化的数值仿真

考虑裂纹形核，扩展，合并以及晶界的作用等因素，对光滑圆试样表面疲劳裂纹的演化进行了数值模拟。结果表明，疲劳裂纹系统的演化是由无序向有序转化的过程，演化诱致突变。这一过程与实验观察到的结果一致。疲劳裂纹系统的演化终态具有很大的分散性，主要表现为裂纹路径的随机性和突变寿命的分散性。样本的随机性是造成上述分散性的外因，系统对裂纹位形的敏感性是内因。
