Global Bifurcation from Intervals for the Monge-Ampère Equations and Its Applications by Wenguo Shen

“…We shall establish the global bifurcation results from the trivial solutions axis or from infinity for the Monge-Ampère equations: det(D2u)=λm(x)-uN+m(x)f1(x,-u,-u′,λ)+f2(x,-u,-u′,λ), in B, u(x)=0, on ∂B, where D2u=(∂2u/∂xi∂xj) is the Hessian matrix of u, where B is the unit open ball of RN, m∈C(B¯,[0,+∞)) is a radially symmetric weighted function and m(r):=m(x)≢0 on any subinterval of [0,1], λ is a positive parameter, and the nonlinear term f1,f2∈C(B¯×R+3,R+), but f1 is not necessarily differentiable at the origin and infinity with respect to u, where R+=[0,+∞). …”

Fault Feature Extraction and Diagnosis of Gearbox Based on EEMD and Deep Briefs Network by Kai Chen, Xin-Cong Zhou, Jun-Qiang Fang, Peng-fei Zheng, Jun Wang

“…In this paper, a novel fault diagnosis method based on ensemble empirical mode decomposition (EEMD) and Deep Briefs Network (DBN) is proposed to treat the vibration signals measured from gearbox. The original data is decomposed into a set of intrinsic mode functions (IMFs) using EEMD, and then main IMFs were chosen for reconstructed signal to suppress abnormal interference from noise. …”
