Stochastic Dynamic Model of Sulfate Corrosion Reactions in Concrete Materials considering the Effects of Colored Gaussian Noises by Tao Li, Bin Zhang

“…To comprehensively describe the effects of internal fluctuations, the stochastic dynamic model of corrosion reactions in concrete materials subjected to sulfate attack is established based on the law of mass conservation and random process theory, in which internal fluctuations and the parameters of the chemical system are, respectively, regarded as colored Gaussian noises and a series of random variables. …”

Design and test of gravity self balancing upper limb rehabilitation robots by MA Chong, LI Shouzhong, KUANG Xinyu, ZHANG Wenlong, LI Junli, ZHAO Hongzhe

“…Based on the analysis of the change law of the center of mass during the cantilever working process of the upper limb rehabilitation robot, a cantilever mechanism of the upper limb rehabilitation robot that can automatically balance gravity was designed to address this issue.MethodsThis institution can achieve gravity balance by determining the position and parameters of the zero length spring, which means that only one spring is needed to meet the self balance of the upper limb rehabilitation robot cantilever in tension and rotation working states. In theory, joint loads generated by gravity can be completely eliminated, energy loss can be reduced, and the working range and system performance of upper limb rehabilitation robots can be improved. …”

A Birandom Job Search Problem with Risk Tolerance by Guoli Wang, Wansheng Tang, Ruiqing Zhao

“…Since the offered wages are random variables and the search process is random, it's impossible to obtain the job searcher's real return; in this case, its expected value can be calculated via birandom theory. Simultaneously, some propositions on the expected return as well as the average search times are also studied which may provide some valuable suggestions to the job searcher. …”
