The Stability

Consistent Mode Imperfections Method based on eigenvalue buckling mode is widely adopted in the stability analysis for the spatial steel structures with initial geometrical imperfections, i.e. latticed shells, thin shells, etc. Taking the new type hybrid structure of suspendome as the analytical object, the applicability of Consistent Mode Imperfections Method is discussed. The effects on structural stability are probed arisen by the factors such as different initial reference loads and different order eigenvalue buckling modes. It is indicated that this stability analysis method can be quite fit for the spatial structures such as latticed shells, while for suspendomes, the initial reference load has a distinct effect upon the analytical result obtained by the stability analysis method. Moreover, it is not always to dominate calculating result when selecting the first order eigenvalue buckling mode as the distributing pattern of initial geometrical imperfections. As a result, some measures should be taken to improve the accuracy in evaluating the stability bearing capacity of the structures with Consistent Mode Imperfections Method based on eigenvalue buckling mode.

The Stability

A fundamental task in photogrammetry is the temporal stability analysis of a camera/imaging-system’s calibration parameters. This is essential to validate the repeatability of the parameters’ estimation, to detect any behavioural changes in the camera/imaging system and to ensure precise photogrammetric products. Many stability analysis methods exist in the photogrammetric literature; each one has different methodological bases, and advantages and disadvantages. This paper presents a simple and rigorous stability analysis method that can be straightforwardly implemented for a single camera or an imaging system with multiple cameras. The basic collinearity model is used to capture differences between two calibration datasets, and to establish the stability analysis methodology. Geometric simulation is used as a tool to derive image and object space scenarios. Experiments were performed on real calibration datasets from a dual fluoroscopy (DF; X-ray-based) imaging system. The calibration data consisted of hundreds of images and thousands of image observations from six temporal points over a two-day period for a precise evaluation of the DF system stability. The stability of the DF system – for a single camera analysis – was found to be within a range of 0.01 to 0.66 mm in terms of 3D coordinates root-mean-square-error (RMSE), and 0.07 to 0.19 mm for dual cameras analysis. It is to the authors’ best knowledge that this work is the first to address the topic of DF stability analysis.

The Stability

Considering the effect of density difference, an extended lattice hydrodynamic model for bidirectional pedestrian flow is proposed in this paper. The stability condition is obtained by the use of linear stability analysis. It is shown that the stability of pedestrian flow varies with the reaction coefficient of density difference. Based on nonlinear analysis method, the Burgers, Korteweg–de Vries (KdV) and modified Korteweg–de Vries (MKdV) equations are derived to describe the triangular shock waves, soliton waves and kink–antikink waves in the stable, metastable and unstable regions, respectively. The results show that jams may be alleviated by considering the effect of density difference. The findings also indicate that in the process of building and subway station design, a series of auxiliary facilities should be considered in order to alleviate the possible pedestrian jams.

Taking into account the deformation of a designed direct-operated seawater hydraulic relief valve in deep sea, which might have a great influence on the stability of the valve, a mathematic model of the relief valve was established and stability analysis was conducted. As the fitting clearances between the damping sleeve and the damping bar play a key role in the performance of the relief valve, the fitting clearances after deformation under pressure of different ocean depths were obtained using finite element method. Applying the deformation data to the relief valve model, the stability and relative stability could be analyzed quantitatively through both the frequency domain analysis method and the time domain analysis method to detect the influence of the fitting clearance after deformation. The simulation results show that the seawater relief valve has a stable performance within 4000 meters deep under the sea.

Global stability analysis cannot be ignored for large-span spatial steel structures. Beijing Jiangtai Winter Garden adopts hybrid structure with latticed shell and vertical cables, on which glass curtain wall is fixed. Therein the reticulated shell is composed of 9 spatial arches and other common frames, thus it can be seen as arch-reticulated shell hybrid structure. This paper analyzes the stability of one single arch structure which has the largest span in the whole structure, including buckling analyses and non-linear full range analyses. The results show that the stability of single arch meets requirements, and the nonlinearity has great influence on the stability of single arch structure. Besides, although the initial geometric imperfection has certain effect on the elastic structure, it has little effect on the elasto-plastic one.

The Stability

Due to the internal dynamics of the modular multilevel converter (MMC), the coupling between the positive and negative sequences in impedance, which is defined as frequency coupling, inherently exists in MMC. Ignoring the frequency coupling of the MMC impedance model may lead to inaccurate stability assessment, and thus the multi-input multi-output (MIMO) impedance model has been developed to consider the frequency coupling effect. However, the generalized Nyquist criterion (GNC), which is used for the stability analysis of an MIMO model, is more complicated than the stability analysis method applied on single-input-single-output (SISO) models. Meanwhile, it is not always the case that the SISO model fails in the stability assessment. Therefore, the conditions when the MIMO impedance model needs to be considered in the stability analysis of an MMC system should be analyzed. This paper quantitatively analyzes the effect of frequency coupling on the stability analysis of grid-connected MMC, and clarifies the frequency range and grid conditions that the coupling effect required to be considered in the stability analysis. Based on the quantitative relations between the frequency coupling and the stability analysis of the grid-connected MMC system, a simple and accurate stability analysis method for the grid-connected MMC system is proposed, where the MIMO impedance model is applied when the frequency coupling has a significant effect and the SISO impedance model is used if the frequency coupling is insignificant.

The Stability

A numerical analysis method for block failure is proposed that is based on continuum mechanics. First, a mesh model that includes marked blocks was established based on the grid-based block identification method. Then, expressions of the contact force under various contact states were derived based on the explicit contact force algorithm, and a contact simulation method between blocks and the surrounding rock was proposed. The safety factors of the blocks were calculated based on the strength reduction method. This numerical analysis method can simulate both the continuous deformation of the surrounding rock and the discontinuous failure processes of the blocks. A simple example of a sliding block was used to evaluate the accuracy and rationality of the numerical method. Finally, combined with a deep underground excavation project under complex geological conditions, the stability of the blocks and rock were analyzed. The results indicate that the key blocks are damaged after excavation, the potentially dangerous blocks loosen and undergo large deformations, and the cracks between the blocks and the rock gradually increase as the excavation proceeds. The safety factors of the blocks change during the excavation. The numerical results demonstrate the influence of the surrounding rock on the failure process and on the stability of the blocks, and an effective analysis method is provided for the stability analysis of blocks under complex geological conditions.
