Recently, the nonlinear dynamic responses among waves, submarine pipeline and seabed have become a target of analyses for marine geotechnical and coastal engineers. Specifically, the velocity field around the submarine pipeline and the wave-induced responses of soil, such as stress and strain inside seabed, have been recognized as dominant factors in discussing the stability of submarine pipeline. The aim of this paper is to investigate nonlinear dynamic responses of soil in seabed, around submarine pipeline, under wave loading. In order to examine wave-induced soil responses, first, the calculation is conducted in the whole domain, including wave field and the seabed, using the VOF-FDM method. Then, velocities and pressures, which are obtained on the boundary between the wave field and the seabed, are used as the boundary condition to compute the wave-induced stress and strain inside seabed, using the poro-elastic FEM model, which is based on the approximation of the Biot's equations. Based on the numerical results, the characteristics of wave-induced soil responses around submarine pipeline are investigated, in detail, inrelation to relative separate distance of the submarine pipeline from seabed. Also, the velocity field around the submarine pipeline is discussed.

We propose a novel cooperative guidance law design method based on the finite time disturbance observer (FTDO) for multiple near space interceptors (NSIs) with impact time control. Initially, we construct a cooperative guidance model with head pursuit, and employ the FTDO to estimate the system disturbance caused by target maneuvering. We subsequently separate the cooperative guidance process into two stages, and develop the normal acceleration command based on the super-twisting algorithm (STA) and disturbance estimated value, to ensure the convergence of the relative distance. Then, we also design the acceleration command along the line-of-sight (LOS), based on the nonsingular fast terminal sliding mode (NFTSM) control, to ensure that all the NSIs simultaneously hit the target. Furthermore, we prove the stability of the closed-loop guidance system, based on the Lyapunov theory. Finally, our simulation results of a three-to-one interception scenario show that the proposed cooperative guidance scheme makes all the NSIs hit the target at the same time.

To predict urban growth according to changes in landcover, probability factors werecal culated and mapped. Topographic, geographic and social and political factors were used as prediction variables for constructing probability maps of urban growth. Urban growth-related factors included elevation, slope, aspect, distance from road,road ratio, distance from the main city, land cover, environmental rating and legislative rating. Accounting for these factors, probability maps of urban growth were constr uctedusing frequency ratio (FR) and logistic regression (LR) methods and the effectiveness of the results was verified by the relative operating characteristic (ROC). ROC values of the urban growth probability index (UGPI) maps by the FR and LR models were 0.937 and 0.940, respectively. The LR map had a slightly higher ROC value than the FR map, but the numerical difference was slight, with both models showing similar results. The FR model is the simplest tool for probability analysis of urban growth, providing a faster and easier calculation process than other available tools. Additionally, the results can be easily interpreted. In contrast, for the LR model, only a limited amount of input data can be processed by the statistical program and a separate conversion process for input and output data is necessary. In conclusion, although the FR model is the simplest way to analyze the probability of urban growth, the LR model is more appropriate because it allows for quantitative analysis.
