Nonlinear Stability Analysis of Shallow-Buried Bias Tunnel Based on Failure Mode Improvement by Wei Luo, Gequan Xiao, Zhi Tao, Jingyu Chen, Xi Lu, Haifeng Wang

“…Based on the improvement of the Karl Terzaghi failure mode for calculating the surrounding rock pressure of loose rock mass, combined with the upper bound theorem of limit analysis, the formula for calculating the surrounding rock pressure of shallow-buried tunnel in a slope area under a nonlinear failure criterion is derived. The SQP algorithm in MATLAB (R2022a) software was used to optimize the solution, and the influence of slope top load, buried depth ratio, cohesion, and axial tensile stress on the surrounding rock pressure and the failure mode of shallow-buried tunnel was analyzed through examples. …”

Occlusion mapping reveals the impact of flight and sensing parameters on vertical forest structure exploration with cost-effective UAV based laser scanning by Matthias Gassilloud, Barbara Koch, Anna Göritz

“…Using sensor position reconstruction and a ray tracing algorithm to quantify occlusion, we found that: (1) A larger sensor tilt angle up to 15° increased total occlusion, enhancing exploration in the upper canopy, while decreasing it below due to reduced canopy penetration. (2) Flying multiple azimuthal directions with a linear scanning mode reduced vertical occlusion by up to 15.0% due to improved coverage from diverse perspectives. (3) Lissajous scanning patterns resulted in 10.1% less vertical occlusion compared to linear patterns, underscoring the importance of additional viewing angles. …”

Dynamic spectrum allocation based on one-band multi-winner auction by Wen-zhu ZHANG, Ling-yun WANG

“…In order to improve the effectiveness of traditional auction in DSA (dynamic spectrum allocation) issue in cognitive radio networks,a new dynamic spectrum allocation algorithm based on one-band multi-winner auction was proposed.Compared with the original greedy algorithm,the new algorithm can achieve better spectrum allocation solutions with lower computational complexity by introducing the multiple greedy strategy.It increases the seller's revenue by improving the VCG (vickery-clarke-groves) mechanism,while retaining the dominant strategy incentive compatible property.In addition,it suppresses the occurrence of collusion effectively.Simulation results show that the algorithm proposed can get spectrum allocation efficiency close to the optimal solution and increase the auction revenue significantly.…”

Beamforming design for energy-constrained full-duplex two-way relaying system by Wei WANG, Liyuan AN, Guoan ZHANG, Shibing ZHANG

“…A beamforming design was proposed under simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) protocol.A utility optimization problem was considered aiming to maximize the harvested energy by jointly optimizing the beamforming matrix,the power splitting ratio at the relay and the transmit powers at the sources.Since the formulated joint optimization problem was nonconvex,it was difficult or even intractable to obtain the global optimal solution.To overcome this issue,the objective problem into three subproblems was decoupled which could be solved by the proposed semidefinite relaxation technique and the derived constraints activation solution,respectively.The solution was finally obtained with the proposed convergent iterative algorithm.Simulation results show that the proposed joint optimization scheme achieves the optimal performance.Compared with the traditional half-duplex (HD) algorithm,the proposed algorithm can obtain 2~3 times energy harvesting (EH) efficiency improvement,while the computational complexity increases slightly.…”
