Some methods of training radial basis neural networks in solving the Navier‐Stokes equations

The purpose of this research is to analyze the application of neural networks and specific features of training radial basis functions for solving 2‐dimensional Navier‐Stokes equations. The authors developed an algorithm for solving hydrodynamic equations with representation of their solution by the method of weighted residuals upon the general neural network approximation throughout the entire computational domain. The article deals with testing of the developed algorithm through solving the 2‐dimensional Navier‐Stokes equations. Artificial neural networks are widely used for solving problems of mathematical physics; however, their use for modeling of hydrodynamic problems is very limited. At the same time, the problem of hydrodynamic modeling can be solved through neural network modeling, and our study demonstrates an example of its solution. The choice of neural networks based on radial basis functions is due to the ease of implementation and organization of the training process, the accuracy of the approximations, and smoothness of solutions. Radial basis neural networks in the solution of differential equations in partial derivatives allow obtaining a sufficiently accurate solution with a relatively small size of the neural network model. The authors propose to consider the neural network as an approximation of the unknown solution of the equation. The Gaussian distribution is used as the activation function.

Aeroelastic analysis of cantilever plates using Peters’ aerodynamic model,and the influence of choosing beam or plate theories as the structural model

In this paper, the aeroelastic analyses of a rectangular cantilever plate of varying aspect ratio is presented. The classical plate theory has been selected as the structural model. The main point that distinguishes this study from previously reported research is employing Peters’ theory to model aerodynamic effect which is not straightforward. The Peters’ aerodynamic model was originally developed to provide lift and moment, which is only applicable to the structural model based on the beam theories. In this study, using the basic concept of the Peters’ aerodynamic model in addition to utilizing the Fourier series, the pressure distribution is derived, which makes Peters’ model applicable to structural models based on plate theory. This combination provides a much simpler state–space aeroelastic model for plates in comparison to the prevalent panel methods, which could lead to a significant reduction in computational time. In addition, the aeroelastic response of the plate with respect to changes in the structural model from the beam theory to the plate theory is evaluated. By using data from an experiment carried out at Duke University, the theoretical results are evaluated. Furthermore, the differences in structural models obtained from the plate and beam theories can be divided into two distinct parts, which are responsible for differences in bending and torsional behaviors of the structure, separately. This approach enables us to measure the effects of differences of each behavior separately, which could provide with a new insight into the problem. It has been determined that the flutter speeds obtained from the beam and plate aeroelastic models are little affected by the difference in bending behavior, but rather is mainly caused by the difference in torsional frequencies.

针对水下椭球粒子,以声散射理论为基础,采用分波序列的方法,建立了椭球粒子声辐射力的理论计算模型。进而根据声辐射力计算公式,以刚性椭球粒子和液体椭球粒子为例,计算并分析不同Bessel波束作用下椭球粒子的轴向声辐射力函数特征。数值仿真计算结果表明,对于刚性椭球粒子,扁平椭球粒子相对于细长椭球粒子更有助于激发负声辐射力；对于液体椭球粒子,细长椭球粒子相对于扁平椭球粒子更加容易产生负声辐射力；对于不同介质的椭球粒子,不同的入射波束激发的负声辐射力的效果也存在明显的差异。该结果为复杂的尺寸和介质粒子声操控技术提供了理论的可行性。
