Many State Grid projects of China are facing a series of natural disaster threats, such as landslide, collapse, mud-rock slide, etc. This article takes the Huangshi Daye Steel Substation as research object. Based on the orthogonal test which confirmed factors influencing the stability, it adopts the Numerical Simulation Method and the Roof Thickness-to-span Ratio Method to evaluate the stability of the Huangshi Daye Steel Substations karst foundation. By doing this, karst foundation stability maps of the substation are respectively obtained. Analyzing the stability results of the two methods, it has been found that the stability evaluation results measured by the two methods are the same. And orthogonal test has advantages such as comprehensiveness, speediness, reliability and accuracy. Meanwhile, according to the stability evaluation results, specific site operation suggestions are proposed.

AbstractThe morphological and compositional instabilities in the heteroepitaxial strained alloy films have attracted intense interest from both experimentalists and theorists. To understand the mechanisms and properties for the generation of instabilities, we have developed a nonequilibrium, continuum model for the dislocation-free and coherent film systems. The early evolution processes of surface pro.les for both growing and postdeposition (non-growing) thin alloy films are studied through a linear stability analysis. We consider the coupling between top surface of the film and the underlying bulk, as well as the combination and interplay of different elastic effects. These e.ects are caused by filmsubstrate lattice misfit, composition dependence of film lattice constant (compositional stress), and composition dependence of both Young's and shear elastic moduli. The interplay of these factors as well as the growth temperature and deposition rate leads to rich and complicated stability results. For both the growing.lm and non-growing alloy free surface, we determine the stability conditions and diagrams for the system. These show the joint stability or instability for film morphology and compositional pro.les, as well as the asymmetry between tensile and compressive layers. The kinetic critical thickness for the onset of instability during.lm growth is also calculated, and its scaling behavior with respect to misfit strain and deposition rate determined. Our results have implications for real alloy growth systems such as SiGe and InGaAs, which agree with qualitative trends seen in recent experimental observations.

“Osseointegration” as formulated by Alberktson is crucial for implant survival and success. Osseointegration is a measure of implant stability. Measuring implant stability helps to arrive at decisions as to loading of an implant, allows choice of protocol on a patient to patient basis and provides better case documentation. A successful implant reflects good bone to implant contact and is determined by implant stability both primary and secondary. Implant stability is achieved at two different stages – primary (immediately after implant placement) and secondary (3-4 months after implant placement). Implant stability has been confirmed to affect the process of osseointegration and therefore is essential to understand the methods to measure implant stability and factors influencing. Various methods are developed to assess implant stability which suggests the prognosis of an implant.

AbstractThe stability of spinosad resistance in western flower thrips (WFT),Frankliniella occidentalis(Pergande), populations with differing initial frequencies of resistance was studied in laboratory conditions. The stability of resistance was assessed in bimonthly residual bioassays in five populations with initial frequencies of 100, 75, 50, 25 and 0% of resistant individuals. There were no consistent changes in susceptibility of the susceptible strain after eight months without insecticide pressure. In the resistant strain, very highly resistant to spinosad (RF50>23,000-fold), resistance was maintained up to eight months without further exposure to spinosad. In the absence of any immigration of susceptible genes into the population, resistance was stable. In the case of the population with different initial frequency of resistant thrips, spinosad resistance declined significantly two months later in the absence of selection pressure. With successive generations, these strains did not change significantly in sensitivity. Spinosad resistance inF. occidentalisdeclined significantly in the absence of selection pressure and the presence of susceptible WFT. These results suggest that spinosad resistance probably is unstable under field conditions, primarily due to the immigration of susceptible WFT. Factors influencing stability or reversion of spinosad resistance are discussed.

In order to forecast the stability of deep roadway and optimize the parameters of bolts, the complex stress environment and the multivariate surrounding rocks characteristics of deep roadway were analyzed. Then the classification prediction method and the numerical simulation method were simultaneously used to analysis the stability of surrounding rocks. Furthermore, the supporting parameters of bolts were also designed optimally. It was shown that the characteristics of stress distribution, deformation and failure zone of surrounding rocks are not ideal. So it is necessary to optimize the supporting parameters of deep roadway. All these research findings will provide the theory basis for bolts of deep roadway and will ensure the optimization of bolts and the stability of deep roadway in the long run.

In this article, the complex dynamic behavior of a nonlinear aeroelastic airfoil model with cubic nonlinear pitching stiffness is investigated by applying a theoretical method and numerical simulation method. First, through calculating the Jacobian of the nonlinear system at equilibrium, we obtain necessary and sufficient conditions when this system has two classes of degenerated equilibria. They are described as: (1) one pair of purely imaginary roots and one pair of conjugate complex roots with negative real parts; (2) two pairs of purely imaginary roots under nonresonant conditions. Then, with the aid of center manifold and normal form theories, we not only derive the stability conditions of the initial and nonzero equilibria, but also get the explicit expressions of the critical bifurcation lines resulting in static bifurcation and Hopf bifurcation. Specifically, quasi-periodic motions on 2D and 3D tori are found in the neighborhoods of the initial and nonzero equilibria under certain parameter conditions. Finally, the numerical simulations performed by the fourth-order Runge–Kutta method provide a good agreement with the results of theoretical analysis.

In this paper, we will present a fast prediction tool based on a one-dimensional Green's function approach that can be used to bypass numerically expensive computational fluid dynamics simulations. The Green’s function approach has the advantage of providing a clear picture of the physics behind the generation and evolution of combustion instabilities. In addition, the method allows us to perform a modal analysis; single acoustic modes can be treated in isolation or in combination with other modes. In this article, we will investigate the role of higher-order modes in determining the stability of the system. We will initially produce the stability maps for the first and second mode separately. Then the time history of the perturbation will be computed, where both the modes are present. The flame will be modelled by a generic Flame Describing Function, i.e. by an amplitude-dependent Flame Transfer Function. The time-history calculations show the evolution of the two modes resulting from an initial perturbation; both transient and limit-cycle oscillations are revealed. Our study represents a first step towards the modelling of nonlinearity and non-normality in combustion processes.

AbstractIn this work, we study the dengue dynamics with fractal-factional Caputo–Fabrizio operator. We employ real statistical data of dengue infection cases of East Java, Indonesia, from 2018 and parameterize the dengue model. The estimated basic reduction number for this dataset is $\mathcal{R}_{0}\approx2.2020$ R 0 ≈ 2.2020 . We briefly show the stability results of the model for the case when the basic reproduction number is $\mathcal{R}_{0} <1$ R 0 < 1 . We apply the fractal-fractional operator in the framework of Caputo–Fabrizio to the model and present its numerical solution by using a novel approach. The parameter values estimated for the model are used to compare with fractal-fractional operator, and we suggest that the fractal-fractional operator provides the best fitting for real cases of dengue infection when varying the values of both operators’ orders. We suggest some more graphical illustration for the model variables with various orders of fractal and fractional.
