In the present study, a higher order rotating cavitation predicted by the stability analysis was identified through the measurements of inlet pressure fluctuations and blade stress fluctuations. The propagation speed ratio of the higher order rotating cavitation is approximately 5, and the amplitude of the blade stress fluctuation caused by this rotating cavitation is the same level as that by the conventional rotating cavitation. In addition, a higher order cavitation surge was observed at the transition point from the conventional to the higher order rotating cavitation.

Recurrent neural networks with higher order connections, from here on referred to as higher-order neural networks (HONNs), may be used for the solution of combinatorial optimization problems. In Ref. 5 a mapping of the traveling salesman problem (TSP) onto a HONN of arbitrary order was developed, thereby creating a family of related networks that can be used to solve the TSP. In this paper, we explore the trade-off between network complexity and quality of solution that is made available by the HONN mapping of the TSP. The trade-off is investigated by undertaking an analysis of the stability of valid solutions to the TSP in a HONN of arbitrary order. The techniques used to perform the stability analysis are not new, but have been widely used elsewhere in the literature.15–17 The original contribution in this paper is the application of these techniques to a HONN of arbitrary order used to solve the TSP. The results of the stability analysis show that the quality of solution is improved by increasing the network complexity, as measured by the order of the network. Furthermore, it is shown that the Hopfield network, as the simplest network in the family of higher-order networks, is expected to produce the poorest quality of solution.

 This article presents the stability analysis of delay integro-differentialequations with fractional order derivative via some approximation techniques forthe derived nonlinear terms of characteristic exponents. Based on these techniques,the existence of some analytical solutions at the neighborhood of their equilibriumpoints is proved. Stability charts are constructed and so both of the critical timedelay and critical frequency formulae are obtained. The impact of this work into thegeneral RLC circuit applications exposing the delay and fractional order derivativesis discussed.

Abstract This paper focuses on four tire computational models based on two-dimensional shear deformation theories, namely, the first-order Timoshenko-type theory, the higher-order Timoshenko-type theory, the first-order discrete-layer theory, and the higher-order discrete-layer theory. The joint influence of anisotropy, geometrical nonlinearity, and laminated material response on the tire stress-strain fields is examined. The comparative analysis of stresses and strains of the cord-rubber tire on the basis of these four shell computational models is given. Results show that neglecting the effect of anisotropy leads to an incorrect description of the stress-strain fields even in bias-ply tires.

High-speed railway "Moscow-Kazan" by the draft crosses the Volga (Kuibyshev reservoir) in Chuvashia region 500 m below the village of New Kushnikovo. The crossing plot is a right-bank landslide slope with a stepped surface. Its height is 80 m; the slope steepness -15-16o. The authors should assess the risk of landslides and recommend anti-landslide measures to ensure the safety of the future bridge. For this landslide factors have been analyzed, slope stability assessment has been performed and recommendations have been suggested. The role of the following factors have been analyzed: 1) hydrologic - erosion and abrasion reservoir and runoff role; 2) lithologyc (the presence of Urzhum and Northern Dvina horizons of plastically deformable rocks, displacement areas); 3) hydrogeological (the role of perched, ground and interstratal water); 4) geomorphological (presence of the elemental composition of sliding systems and their structure in the relief); 5) exogeodynamic (cycles and stages of landslide systems development, mechanisms and relationship between landslide tiers of different generations and blocks contained in tiers). As a result 6-7 computational models at each of the three engineering-geological sections were made. The stability was evaluated by the method “of the leaning slope”. It is proved that the slope is in a very stable state and requires the following measures: 1) unloading (truncation) of active heads blocks of landslide tiers) and the edge of the plateau, 2) regulation of the surface and groundwater flow, 3) concrete dam, if necessary.

This paper focuses on the stability analysis of the Nanjung Water Diversion Twin Tunnels using convergence measurement. The Nanjung Tunnel is horseshoe-shaped in cross-section, 10.2 m x 9.2 m in dimension, and 230 m in length. The location of the tunnel is in Curug Jompong, Margaasih Subdistrict, Bandung. Convergence monitoring was done for 144 days between February 18 and July 11, 2019. The results of the convergence measurement were recorded and plotted into the curves of convergence vs. day and convergence vs. distance from tunnel face. From these plots, the continuity of the convergence and the convergence rate in the tunnel roof and wall were then analyzed. The convergence rates from each tunnel were also compared to empirical values to determine the level of tunnel stability. In general, the trend of convergence rate shows that the Nanjung Tunnel is stable without any indication of instability. Although there was a spike in the convergence rate at several STA in the measured span, that spike was not replicated by the convergence rate in the other measured spans and it was not continuous. The stability of the Nanjung Tunnel is also confirmed from the critical strain analysis, in which most of the STA measured have strain magnitudes located below the critical strain line and are less than 1%.
