The support can be elastic. Loads imposed can be polynomial distributed loads, uniformly distributed radial forces or moments along the edge respectively or their combinations. Convergent solutions can still be obtained by this method under the load whose value is in great excess of normal one. Under the action of the uniformly distributed loads, linear solutions of circular plates with linearly or quadratically variable thickness are compared with those obtained by the parameter method. Buckling of a circular plate with identical thickness beyond critical thrust is compared with those obtained by the power series method.展开更多

The multivariable spline element equations are derived, based on the mixed variational principle. The analysis and calculations of bending, vibration and stability of the plates on elastic foundation are presented in the paper. Because the field functions of plate on elastic foundation are assumed independently, the precision of the field variables of bending moments and displacement is high.展开更多

In a previous work, we constructed an 8-node quadrilateral spline element L8 using the triangular area coordinates and the B- net method, which can be insensitive to mesh distortions and possess the second order completeness in the Cartesian co- ordinates. In this paper, a thin plate spline element is devel- oped based on the spline element L8 and the refined tech- nique. Numerical examples show that the present element indeed possesses higher accuracy than the DKQ element for distorted meshes.展开更多

TPS forces the corresponding landmarks to exactly match each other and minimizes the bending energy of the whole image. However, in real application, such scheme would deform the image globally when deformation is only local. CSRBF needs manually determine the support size, although its deformation is limited local. Therefore, to limit the effect of the deformation, new Compact Support Thin Plate Spline algorithm (CSTPS) is approached, analyzed and applied. Such new approach gains optimal mutual information, which shows its registration result satisfactory. The experiments also show it can apply in both local and global elastic registration.展开更多

The support could be elastic. A sandwich plate was assumed to be Reissner model.

The well-known fundamental solutions of the isotrqpic plates are utlized for the spline integral equation analysis of anisotropic plates.Even with sparse meshes the satisfactory results can be obtained. The analysis of plates on two-parameter elastic foundation is so simple as the common case that only a few terms should be added to the formulas of fictitious loads.展开更多

Efficacy and convergence of the method have been demonstrated in previous studies by comparing only numerical results with analytical results of some benchmark problems. To date, no exact solutions of the method or its explicit forms of error terms have been derived to show its convergence analytically. As such, in this paper, the mathematical exact solutions of spline finite strips in the plate analysis are derived using a unitary transformation approach (abbreviated as the U-transformation method herein). These exact solutions are presented for the first time in open literature. Unlike the conventional spline FSM which involves assembly of the global matrix equation and its numerical solution, the U-transformation method decouples the global matrix equation into the one involving only two unknowns, thus rendering the exact solutions of the spline finite strip to be derived explicitly. By taking Taylor's series expansion of the exact solution, error terms and convergence rates are also derived explicitly and compared directly with other numerical methods. In this regard, the spline FSM converges at the same rate as a non-conforming finite element, yet involving a smaller number of unknowns compared to the latter. The convergence rate is also found superior to the conventional finite difference method.展开更多

文摘Common tools based on landmarks in medical image elastic registration are Thin Plate Spline (TPS) and Compact Support Radial Basis Function (CSRBF). TPS forces the corresponding landmarks to exactly match each other and minimizes the bending energy of the whole image. However, in real application, such scheme would deform the image globally when deformation is only local. CSRBF needs manually determine the support size, although its deformation is limited local. Therefore, to limit the effect of the deformation, new Compact Support Thin Plate Spline algorithm (CSTPS) is approached, analyzed and applied. Such new approach gains optimal mutual information, which shows its registration result satisfactory. The experiments also show it can apply in both local and global elastic registration.

文摘The tectonic evolution history of the South China Sea(SCS) is important for understanding the interaction between the Pacific Tectonic Domain and the Tethyan Tectonic Domain,as well as the regional tectonics and geodynamics during the multi-plate convergence in the Cenozoic.Several Cenozoic basins formed in the northern margin of the SCS,which preserve the sedimentary tectonic records of the opening of the SCS.Due to the spatial non-uniformity among different basins,a systematic study on the various basins in the northern margin of the SCS constituting the Northern Cenozoic Basin Group(NCBG) is essential.Here we present results from a detailed evaluation of the spatial-temporal migration of the boundary faults and primary unconformities to unravel the mechanism of formation of the NCBG.The NCBG is composed of the Beibu Gulf Basin(BBGB),Qiongdongnan Basin(QDNB),Pearl River Mouth Basin(PRMB) and Taixinan Basin(TXNB).Based on seismic profiles and gravity-magnetic anomalies,we confirm that the NE-striking onshore boundary faults propagated into the northern margin of the SCS.Combining the fault slip rate,fault combination and a comparison of the unconformities in different basins,we identify NE-striking rift composed of two-stage rifting events in the NCBG:an early-stage rifting(from the Paleocene to the Early Oligocene) and a late-stage rifting(from the Late Eocene to the beginning of the Miocene).Spatially only the late-stage faults occurs in the western part of the NCBG(the BBGB,the QDNB and the western PRMB),but the early-stage rifting is distributed in the whole NCBG.Temporally,the early-stage rifting can be subdivided into three phases which show an eastward migration,resulting in the same trend of the primary unconformities and peak faulting within the NCBG.The late-stage rifting is subdivided into two phases,which took place simultaneously in different basins.The first and second phase of the early-stage rifting is related to back-arc extension of the Pacific subduction retreat system.The third phase of the earlystage rifting resulted from the joint effect of slab-pull force due to southward subduction of the proto-SCS and the back-arc extension of the Pacific subduction retreat system.In addition,the first phase of the late-stage faulting corresponds with the combined effect of the post-collision extension along the Red River Fault and slab-pull force of the proto-SCS subduction.The second phase of the late-stage faulting fits well with the sinistral faulting of the Red River Fault in response to the Indochina Block escape tectonics and the slab-pull force of the proto-SCS.

文摘The spline finite strip method (FSM) is one of the most popular numerical methods for analyzing prismatic structures. Efficacy and convergence of the method have been demonstrated in previous studies by comparing only numerical results with analytical results of some benchmark problems. To date, no exact solutions of the method or its explicit forms of error terms have been derived to show its convergence analytically. As such, in this paper, the mathematical exact solutions of spline finite strips in the plate analysis are derived using a unitary transformation approach (abbreviated as the U-transformation method herein). These exact solutions are presented for the first time in open literature. Unlike the conventional spline FSM which involves assembly of the global matrix equation and its numerical solution, the U-transformation method decouples the global matrix equation into the one involving only two unknowns, thus rendering the exact solutions of the spline finite strip to be derived explicitly. By taking Taylor's series expansion of the exact solution, error terms and convergence rates are also derived explicitly and compared directly with other numerical methods. In this regard, the spline FSM converges at the same rate as a non-conforming finite element, yet involving a smaller number of unknowns compared to the latter. The convergence rate is also found superior to the conventional finite difference method.
