Model Reduction Technique Tailored to the Dynamic Analysis of a Beam Structure under a Moving Load by Yuanchang Chen, Bangji Zhang, Shengzhao Chen

“…This study presents a technique that uses a model reduction method for the dynamic response analysis of a beam structure to a moving load, which can be modeled either as a moving point force or as a moving body. The nature of the dedicated condensation method tailored to address the moving load case is that the master degrees of freedom are reselected, and the coefficient matrices of the condensed model are recalculated as the load travels from one element to another. …”

Multi-attribute aware scheduling for inter-datacenter bulk transfers by Yang-yang LI, Hong-bo WANG, Peng ZHANG, Jian-kang DONG, Shi-duan CHENG

“…A multi-attribute decision making method to schedule inter-datacenter bulk data was proposed.First,hierarchical analysis was used to analyze the dominant relationship among attributes.Based on the relative weights of attributes which were calculated via information entropy,the evaluation to each intermediate data center was provided.Then the multi-attribute aware scheduling problem was modeled on a time expanded graph and formulated as a minimal cost flow problem.Finally,the scheme with general store-and-forward mechanism and single attribute based approach under several different simulation settings was compared.The results demonstrate that our strategy can take multiple attributes into consideration,and can find the bulk transfer route with the best integrated evaluation.…”
