Based on a two-degree of freedom vehicle model, this paper investigates ride comfort for a heavy off-road vehicle mounted a nonlinear hydropneumatic spring, which is influenced by nonlinear stiffness and damping characteristics of the hydropneumatic spring. Especially, the damping force is derived by applying H. Blasius formula in modeling process according to the real physical structure of the hydropneumatic spring, and the established model of nonlinear stiffness characteristics have been validated by experiments. Furthermore, the effects of parameter variations of the hydropneumatic spring, such as initial charge pressure and damping coefficient, on body acceleration, suspension deflection and dynamic tire deflection are also investigated.

Boundary condition is an important factor affecting the vibration characteristics of structures, under different boundary conditions, structures will exhibit different vibration behaviors. On the basis of the previous work, this paper extends to the nonlinear resonance behavior of axially moving graphene platelets reinforced metal foams (GPLRMF) plates with geometric imperfection under different boundary conditions. Based on nonlinear Kirchhoff plate theory, the motion equations are derived. Considering three boundary conditions, including four edges simply supported (SSSS), four edges clamped (CCCC), clamped-clamped-simply-simply (CCSS), the nonlinear ordinary differential equation system is obtained by Galerkin method, and then the equation system is solved to obtain the nonlinear ordinary differential control equation which only including transverse displacement. Subsequently, the resonance response of GPLRMF plates is obtained by perturbation method. Finally, the effects of different boundary conditions, material properties (including the GPLs patterns, foams distribution, porosity coefficient and GPLs weight fraction), geometric imperfection, and axial velocity on the resonance of GPLRMF plates are investigated.

We propose a network traffic prediction model based on linear and nonlinear model combination. Network traffic is modeled by an autoregressive moving average model, and the error between the measured and predicted network traffic values is obtained. Then, an echo state network is used to fit the prediction error with nonlinear components. In addition, an improved slime mold algorithm is proposed for reservoir parameter optimization of the echo state network, further improving the regression performance. The predictions of the linear (autoregressive moving average) and nonlinear (echo state network) models are added to obtain the final prediction. Compared with other prediction models, test results on two network traffic datasets from mobile and fixed networks show that the proposed prediction model has a smaller error and difference measures. In addition, the coefficient of determination and index of agreement is close to 1, indicating a better data fitting performance. Although the proposed prediction model has a slight increase in time complexity for training and prediction compared with some models, it shows practical applicability.

Studying the dynamic behavior of axially moving cylindrical shells in hygro-thermal environments has important theoretical and engineering value for aircraft design. Therefore, in this paper, considering hygro-thermal effect, the nonlinear forced vibration of an axially moving cylindrical shell made of functionally graded materials (FGM) is studied. It is assumed that the material properties vary continuously along the thickness and contain pores. The Donnell thin shell theory is used to derive the motion equations of FGM cylindrical shells with hygro-thermal loads. Under the four sides clamped (CCCC) boundary conditions, the Gallekin method and multi-scale method are used for nonlinear analysis. The effects of power law index, porosity coefficient, temperature rise, moisture concentration, axial velocity, prestress, damping and external excitation amplitude on nonlinear forced vibration are explored through parametric research. It can be found that, the changes in temperature and humidity have a significant effect. Increasing in temperature and humidity will cause the resonance position to shift to the left and increase the resonance amplitude.

In this research, the nonlinear free vibration analysis of boron-nitride micro ribbon (BNMR) on the Pasternak elastic foundation under electrical, mechanical and thermal loadings using modified strain gradient theory (MSGT) is studied. Employing the von $K{\acute{a}}rm{\acute{a}}n$ nonlinear geometry theory, the nonlinear equations of motion for the graphene micro ribbon (GMR) using Euler-Bernoulli beam model with considering attached mass and size effects based on Hamilton's principle is obtained. These equations are converted into the nonlinear ordinary differential equations by elimination of the time variable using Kantorovich time-averaging method. To determine nonlinear frequency of GMR under various boundary conditions, and considering mass effect, differential quadrature element method (DQEM) is used. Based on modified strain MSGT, the results of the current model are compared with the obtained results by classical and modified couple stress theories (CT and MCST). Furthermore, the effect of various parameters such as material length scale parameter, attached mass, temperature change, piezoelectric coefficient, two parameters of elastic foundations on the natural frequencies of BNMR is investigated. The results show that for all boundary conditions, by increasing the mass intensity in a fixed position, the linear and nonlinear natural frequency of the GMR reduces. In addition, with increasing of material length scale parameter, the frequency ratio decreases. This results can be used to design and control nano/micro devices and nano electronics to avoid resonance phenomenon.

Combustion instability in solid rocket motors is a long-term open problem since the first rockets were used. Based on the numerous previous studies, it is known that the limit cycle amplitude is one of the key characteristics of the nonlinear combustion instability in solid rocket motors. Flandro's extended energy balance corollary, aims to predict the limit cycle amplitude of complex, nonlinear pressure oscillations for rockets or air-breathing engines, and leads to a precise assessment of nonlinear combustion instability in solid rocket motors. However, based on the comparison with experimental data, it is revealed that the Flandro's method cannot accurately describe such a complex oscillatory pressure. Thus in this work we make modifications of the nonlinear term in the nonlinear wave equations which represents the interaction of different modes. Through this modified method, a numerical simulation of the cylindrical solid rocket has been carried out, and the simulated result consists well with the experimental data. It means that the added coefficient makes the nonlinear wave growth equations describe the experimental data better.

Well-crystallized vanadium pentoxide V₂O₅ thin films are fabricated on MgO single crystal substrates by using pulsed-laser deposition technique. The linear optical transmission spectra are measured and found to be in a wavelength range from 300 to 800 nm; the data are used to determine the linear refractive index of the V₂O₅ films. The value of linear refractive index decreases with increasing wavelength, and the relationship can be well explained by Wemple's theory. The third-order nonlinear optical properties of the films are determined by a single beam z-scan method at a wavelength of 532 nm. The results show that the prepared V₂O₅ films exhibit a fast third-order nonlinear optical response with nonlinear absorption coefficient and nonlinear refractive index of 2.13 × 10^-10 m/W and 2.07 × 10^-15 cm²/kW, respectively. The real and imaginary parts of the nonlinear susceptibility are determined to be 3.03 × 10^-11 esu and 1.12 × 10^-11 esu, respectively. The enhancement of the nonlinear optical properties is discussed.

HNL-DSF(Highly Nonlinear Dispersion Shifted Fiber) 광 위상 공액기를 이용한 MSSI(Mid-Span Spectral Inversion) 기법이 적용된 320 Gbps WDM시스템에서 전송 형식으로 각각 NRZ와 RZ를 사용하는 경우 채널 입력 전력, 광섬유 분산 계수, 전송 거리 변화에 따른 보상 특성을 분석해 보았다. 우선 광섬유의 분산 계수가 비교적 낮은 WDM시스템에서는 파형 형식이 RZ인 경우가 NRZ인 경우보다 더욱 높은 전력의 신호에 대해서도 고품질 전송이 가능하다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 두 번째 광섬유로 입사되는 공액파의 전력이 낮은 채널들에 대한 보상 효과 감소가 광섬유의 분산 계수가 클수록, 그리고 NRZ 형식보다는 RZ 형식에서 더욱 두드러지게 나타나고, 그로 인해 전체 채널의 고품질 전송을 보장하는 광섬유의 분산 계수가 제한되어야 한다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 광섬유의 분산 계수가 작은 WDM 시스템에서는 RZ 형식이, 광섬유의 분산 계수가 큰 WDM 시스템에서는 NRZ 형식이 장거리 전송에 적합하다는 것을 확인하였다.

The setting and hardening of concrete is accompanied with nonlinear temperature distribution caused by development of hydration heat of cement. In order to predict the exact temperature history in concrete structures it is required to examine thermal properties of concrete. In this study, the coefficient of air convection, which presents thermal transfer between surface of concrete and air, was experimentally investigated with variables such as velocity of wind, boiling and layer effects. Finally, the prediction model for equivalent coefficient of air convection was theoretically proposed. The coefficient of air convection in the proposed model increases with velocity of wind, and its dependance on wind velocity is varied with types of form. For determining the initial coefficient of air convection, boiling effects must be considered. The coefficient of air convection is affected by boundary layer with respect to the distance from the surface.

The purpose of this paper is to propose a simple analysis method of axial deformation of base-isolation rubber bearings in a building subjected to earthquake loading and present its applicability to the analysis of the bound of the aspect ratio of base-isolated buildings. The base shear coefficient is introduced as a key parameter for the bound analysis. The bound of the aspect ratio of base-isolated buildings is analyzed based on the relationship of the following four quantities; (i) ultimate state of the tensile stress of rubber bearings based on a proposed simple recursive analysis for seismic loading, (ii) ultimate state of drift of the base-isolation story for seismic loading, (iii) ultimate state of the axial compressive stress of rubber bearings under dead loads, (iv) prediction of the overturning moment at the base for seismic loading. In particular, a new recursive analysis method of axial deformation of rubber bearings is presented taking into account the nonlinear tensile behavior of rubber bearings and it is shown that the relaxation of the constraint on the ultimate state of the tensile stress of rubber bearings increases the limiting aspect ratio.
