For improving the energy efficiency of hopping robot, an asymmetric spring loaded inverted pendulum hopping model with leg mass is considered. The period orbit problem of two-legged hopping robot is investigated. Firstly, the hybrid dynamic model is constructed. Then the passive hopping gaits are found using quasi-newton optimization method. Secondly, a PD controller is implemented to track the desired pitch trajectory of the body. Through applying control during stance phase, period orbits of the robot with offset body mass is obtained. Finally, the effect of the location of the leg mass and the body mass on hopping performances is investigated.

) of the ground does not change. Therefore, this method is no longer appropriate once utilizing the structure because of leading to slope instability and causing landslides that damage to the slope after a period of exploitation. The experimental studies have shown that the shear resistance parameter ( � , �) of the soil ground changes randomly with depth. As a result, current mechanical computational models are no longer valid. This paper proposes a new model to analyze stability based on reliability theory with the change of shear resistance parameters by depth. Firstly, by using Karhunen – Loeve series, the result of slope stability coefficient of the proposed model is smaller than those without consideration of shear resistance variation ( � , �) by depth. Then, by using Monte - Carlo simulations (n=1000) combined with Karhunen – Loeve series, the results obtained are different from those which only consider the static problem, so the problem of random quantities and the probability of failure increase significantly.

In this work we identify the coherent vortices in the leeward wake of an HQ 17 airfoil with a Gurney flap. This high-lift device consists of a small plate perpendicular to the airfoil, at or near the trailing edge, with a height � of the order from 1% to 4% of the chord. The overall effect is to produce a significant increase in lift, together with a relatively minor increase in airfoil drag. Its geometry generates vortex shedding of spatial scale H, which modulates the wake and thus influence the global configuration of the flow. A numerical study was performed with the commercial software ANSYS Fluent. Simultaneously, experiments were carried out in the wind tunnel of the Aeronautical Departmental Area from the Engineering School of the National University of La Plata. With a Dantec StreamLine hot-wire anemometer, records of the instantaneous horizontal and vertical velocity components in the airfoil wake were obtained. Both the experimental data and those obtained by numerical simulation were analyzed with the continuous wavelet transform technique, in order to identify and characterize the coherent vortices in the wake. Results show the shed vortices structure and the organization degree of this periodic shedding.

Abstract: Degenerative polyarthritis is the most common joint disease and affects millions of people worldwide. However, there is currently no cure for degenerative polyarthritis and no effective methods to prevent or slow down its progression. Gene regulatory relationships are vital for understanding disease mechanisms and developing treatment and novel drugs. Gene regulatory networks can be obtained from the RNA sequencing. Although various single-cell and bulk RNA sequencing data are available, an effective method to integrate the data for molecular diagnosis and treatment of degenerative polyarthritis has not yet been carried out. Here, we propose a novel deep learning-based method to efficiently capture the gene regulatory features of degenerative polyarthritis. First, we integrate single-cell RNA sequencing data-based gene regulatory network to model the gene regulatory relationships between genes and transcription factors as node feature aggregation. Second, we propose a graph convolutional model named dpTF-GCN on gene regulatory graph to transmit and update the node feature for potential associated genes predicting. According to the results, dpTF-GCN achieved the best performance among represented network-based methods. Furthermore, case studies suggest that dpTF-GCN can identify potential associated genes accurately. Our research not only provides theoretical and methodological support for the study of degenerative polyarthritis, but also provides a research case for the application of graph neural network-based identification of associated genes in other diseases.

Abstract. The suffusion susceptibility of the soil samples is evaluated through an erosion resistance index. Thanks to existing statistical analyses, the erosion resistance index is estimated from several soil parameters. In actual exploitation, the soil properties with the input parameters related to the grain distribution of the soil… vary greatly from the original design value due to the influence of many factors. One of the factors is the inherent variability. Inherent soil variability is modelled as a random field. The usual problems used to assess the suffusion susceptibility may be not give accurate results or fully evaluate the actual working ability of the ground in each case. This is one of the reasons why dams are still eroded when they are put into use. The paper aims predict erosion resistance index of the earth dam using two-dimensional (2D) Stochastics random field, modelling the initial problem, considering the variability spatial of soil properties, using the assumption of a Normal random field of soil characteristics parameters. The paper shows the predicted results of the variability spatial of erosion resistance index of Phu Vinh dam-Vietnam. Furthermore, the paper also represents the happened probability of suffusion susceptibility at the different zones in the earth dam body.

Abstract: Under the combined action of structure-process -load, the stiffness and stress distribution at the sealing interface of the ultra-high pressure diaphragm compressor cylinder head exhibit significant nonlinear and uncertain characteristics, resulting in damage to the sealing interface, diaphragm and sealing ring. This paper first establishes a finite element numerical model considering assembly process parameters based on sudden impact load conditions, and analyzes the dynamic characteristics under different assembly process parameters. It is found that some modal frequencies transition with bolt loosening. Then, the mechanical characteristics of the assembly interface of the compressor sealing system under sudden impact load were studied. The maximum equivalent stress at the assembly interface was 298.9 MPa, and the maximum deformation at the top of the air chamber was 0.167mm. Finally, the nonlinear effects of sealing ring compression rate, sealing ring diameter, and sealing groove structure on contact stress and sealing performance were obtained. The results show that as the compression ratio increases by 20% and 25%, the contact pressure at the sealing interface increases by 42.0% and 77.5%, respectively; When the compression rate is 25%, the width of the sealing groove increases by 0.5mm, and the maximum contact pressure decreases by 8.1%. The research on the dynamic characteristics and sealing performance of diaphragm compressors provides technical support for the structural optimization design of diaphragm compressors cylinder head.

The transverse deformation of the tunnel under various loads is unavoidable with the long-term operation of the subway, and the problem of uneven settlement is gradually highlighted. A three-dimensional of tunnel lining model is established in ABAQUS to simulate the uneven settlement and transverse deformation on the safety performance, in which the deformation, internal force, and damage are further analyzed. Based on the simulation, safe settlement values for the shield tunnel with different level of existing transverse deformations (L) are suggested. Because the internal force and damage are not only related to the settlement value (∆) but also to the length of the tunnel where the settlement occurs, the ratio of the settlement value (∆) to the corresponding length (L) of the shield tunnel ∆/L which is called the uneven settlement coefficient is proposed as an index. The uneven settlement coefficient ∆/L is given for different transverse deformations to extend the applicability of the safe settlement values, which provides theoretical support for on-site monitoring and tunnel maintenance to some extent.

To enhance the applicability of discrete element method in 3D slope stability analysis, a BP neural network-based micro parameter calibration method and an energy criterion are proposed by taking MatDEM as an example. Firstly, the relationship between the micro particle parameters and the shear strengths of particle aggregate are represented by using the BP neural network. And then the micro particle parameters are obtained for the given shear strengths by using a correction calibration. Next, the energy conversions are investigated for the stable and instable slope models in MatDEM. From a view of practical application, the abrupt in variation tendency and magnitude of the kinetic energy is selected for indicating the emergence of the limit equilibrium state of a slope. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed improvements is testified by taking Baijiabao landslide as an example. Results verify that the calibration method established in this study is applicable to provide the micro particle parameters when the shear strength is constantly reduced, and the factor of safety determined by the kinetic energy criterion reflects the landslide stability at the global level.

En este artículo se propone una estrategia computacionalmente eficiente para la aproximación del comportamiento no-lineal de estructuras mediante el método de los elementos finitos. Esta propuesta se basa en la ejecución de una serie de análisis lineales en los que la resistencia de los elementos en los que se presenta el daño se degrada de manera secuencial complementándose con un esquema de integración numérica reducida estabilizada para elementos finitos sólidos. Así, la matriz de rigidez solo contiene información en un punto de integración y, en consecuencia, los esfuerzos se calculan en dicho punto. Del mismo modo, la estabilización posibilita que no solamente se utilice integración reducida en los elementos donde se asume que ocurrirá el daño, sino en todos los elementos, garantizando una mayor reducción del costo computacional. En este artículo se aplica esta estrategia de análisis no-lineal basada en análisis lineales secuenciales e integración reducida estabilizada a una serie de ejemplos tanto de validación como de aplicación en los que se discute la calidad en la aproximación y la eficiencia computacional alcanzada. Finalmente, se discuten algunos desarrollos futuros para la estrategia.

En este artículo se aplica esta estrategia de análisis no-lineal basada en análisis lineales secuenciales e integración reducida estabilizada a una serie de ejemplos tanto de validación como de aplicación en los que se discute la calidad en la aproximación y la eficiencia computacional alcanzada. Finalmente, se discuten algunos desarrollos futuros para la estrategia.","PeriodicalId":49607,"journal":{"name":"Revista Internacional de Metodos Numericos para Calculo y Diseno en Ingenieria","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68782024","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
