Then, linear buckling analysis,geometric nonlinear stability analysis, geometric nonlinear stability analysis with initial imperfection, and double nonlinear analysis considering material nonlinearity and geometric nonlinearity were discussed in detail to compare the stability performance of the ellipse-like suspen-dome and the single-layer reticulated shell. The results showthat the cable-strut system increases the integrity of the suspen-dome, and moderates the sensibility of the single-layer reticulated shell to initial geometric imperfection. However, it has little influence on integral rigidity, fundamental vibration frequencies, linear ultimate live loads, and geometric nonlinear ultimate live loads without initial imperfection. When considering the material nonlinearity and initial imperfection, a significant reduction occurs in the ultimate stability capacities of these two structures. In this case, the suspen-dome with a lowrise-span ratio is sensitive to the initial imperfection and material nonlinearity. In addition, the distribution pattern of live loads significantly influences the instability modes of the structure, and the uniform live load with full span is not always the most dangerous case.展开更多

At first, we discuss the stabilization problems of nonlinear systems with homogeneous. Secondly, by vitue of Hamilton-Jacobi-Isaacs equations or inequalities, we solve regular H∞ of nonlinear systems with homogeneous properties. To overcome the H∞ problem of singular nonlinear system, we try to transform inputs of the singular nonlinear system into two parts: regular part input and singular part input. Following the previous results, we solve the singular nonlinear system H∞ control, we give the Lyapunov function and the state feedback controller of the singular nonlinear systems with homogeneous properties.展开更多

Armour unit movements including settlements, rocking and displacements have been determined. The effect of freeboard, packing density and wave steepness on the armour layer stability on crest, front and rear slope has been investigated. Armour units were mostly displaced in the most upper part of the seaward slope and at the seaward side of the crest. Damage on the crest was progressing towards the rear slope. About 40% to 50% larger armour units are required on the seaward slope and crest of low crested structures (as compared to conventional high crested breakwaters). About 35% larger armour units are required on the rear slope. Larger armour units are not required on submerged breakwaters if the water depth on the crest exceeds 40% of design wave height.展开更多

Methods: Some influencing factors of MTT assay in studying the sensitivity of human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) to anti-cancer drugs were observed, including red blood cells, platelets, three different kinds of DMSO and different concentrations of MTT. Meanwhile the stability of tumor drug-coated plate was monitored. Results: The red blood cells and platelets may affect the results at a certain range of concentration. Analytical pure DMSO, both imported and domestic reagents showed the same color with MI3-, and the A values of the reaction were dependent on MTT dose. The stability of the freeze-drying drug-coated plates was superior to non freeze-drying ones. Conclusion: To make clear and definite all kinds of influencing factors might contribute to a kind of standard MTT assay for drug sensitivity test in vitro.展开更多
