Abstract:
In this paper, we provide an analytical study regarding the dynamics of a tethered satellite system, when the central gravitational field is generated by a variable mass object. We show that, in general, the equations of motion for the tethered satellite in the general case as well as in satellite approximation become different from the classical ones, provided that variable mass is considered. We also prove that these expressions could be reduced to the classical ones under the first Meshcherskii's law for variable mass. Moreover, we show that Meshcherskii's transformation is not valid for the dynamics of a dumbbell satellite system.

Abstract:
The main aim of the present work is to study the positions of the equilibria points and their stability in the frame work of satellite approximation. The significant implication is that the motion around these points is unstable in the linear sense. The principle of angular momentum conservation is used as a tool to reduce the degree of freedom of the dynamical systems of equations. The positions of the relative equilibria are explicitly found as well as necessary and sufficient conditions for stable motion in the linear sense are stated.

Abstract:
The aim of this paper is to obtain approximate solution of a class of nonlinear fractional Fredholm integro-differential equations by means of sinc-collocation method which is not used for solving them in the literature before. The fractional derivatives are defined in the Caputo sense often used in fractional calculus. The important feature of the present study is that obtained results are stated as two new theorems. The introduced method is tested on some nonlinear problems and it seems that the method is a very efficient and powerful tool to obtain numerical solutions of nonlinear fractional integro-differential equations.

Abstract:
In this survey paper we review several aspects related to Navier-Stokes models when some hereditary characteristics (constant, distributed or variable delay, memory, etc) appear in the formulation. First some results concerning existence and/or uniqueness of solutions are established. Next the local stability analysis of steady-state solutions is studied by using the theory of Lyapunov functions, the Razumikhin-Lyapunov technique and also by constructing appropriate Lyapunov functionals. A Gronwall-like lemma for delay equations is also exploited to provide some stability results. In the end we also include some comments concerning the global asymptotic analysis of the model, as well as some open questions and future lines for research.

Abstract:
Hausdorff dimension, which is the oldest and also the most accurate model for fractal dimension, constitutes the main reference for any fractal dimension definition that could be provided. In fact, its definition is quite general, and is based on a measure, which makes the Hausdorff model pretty desirable from a theoretical point of view. On the other hand, it turns out that fractal structures provide a perfect context where a new definition of fractal dimension could be proposed. Further, it has been already shown that both Hausdorff and box dimensions can be generalized by some definitions of fractal dimension formulated in terms of fractal structures. Given this, and being mirrored in some of the properties satisfied by Hausdorff dimension, in this paper we explore which ones are satisfied by the fractal dimension definitions for a fractal structure, that are explored along this work.

Abstract:
In this paper, we explain how to generate adequate pre-fractals in order to properly approximate attractors of iterated function systems on the real line within a priori known Hausdorff dimension. To deal with, we have applied the classical Moran's Theorem, so we have been focused on non-overlapping strict self-similar sets. This involves a quite significant hypothesis: the so-called open set condition. The main theoretical result contributed in this paper becomes quite interesting from a computational point of view, since in such a context, there is always a maximum level (of the natural fractal structure we apply in this work) that may be achieved.

Abstract:
Tourism load imbalance is a serious problem in Jiuzhaigou, which may destroy the environment and reduce the feeling of tourists. A reasonable initial shunt strategy is the key factor in making the scenic become balance. So, this paper considers this problem by finding an optimal initial shunt strategy. An optimization model containing two flow models is built, which takes the total overload balance as objective. In order to solve this model and find the optimal initial shunt strategy, a hGA is proposed as solution method. Finally, a comparison analysis is conducted to show the efficiency of this model in remitting the local overload problem.

Abstract:
These days a Two-wheel inverted pendulum (TWIP) robot attracts public attention as it is an efficient ergonomics and easy to operate by nuance personals. Furthermore it has attractive design features like compact in size and zero turning radius. However, the traditional TWIP robots have to change its posture to reach the desired speedup and deceleration by changing the robot posture forward and backward make it difficult to control its motion process. Thus, this paper presents here the Mamdami fuzzy control logic to overcome the motion control of Multi-DOF TWIP robot and make its motion smooth and steady control. By introducing two additional DOFs the slider and the swinging configuration, the robot can maintain its vertical posture even climbing and descending on slopes. To validate the robustness of the proposed method, classic PID controller is introduced for comparison in simulations and experiments. The simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the system design and the better performance in robustness over classic PID control strategy. Finally, the control scheme is implemented on the practical self-designed hardware.

Abstract:
Wind energy is a kind of renewable and clean energy, and wind power is a non-hydropower renewable energy which has the best technical and economic conditions for large-scale development. It is characterized by fluctuation, intermittency, low energy density, etc., so wind power is also fluctuating. When a large-scale wind farm is connected to a power grid, great fluctuation in wind power will cause adverse effect to the power balance and frequency adjustment of the power grid. If the generation power of the wind farm can be prediction, the electricity dispatch department can arrange dispatch plans in advance according to the change in wind power and better protect the power balance and operation safety of the power grid. In this article, a SVM model is used to predict wind power and modified PSO is used to optimize SVM parameters, realizing the optimized selection of the SVM model parameters, which makes such prediction more close to actual law. Actual calculation examples shows that the prediction method used in the article has good convergence, high prediction precision and actual application value.

Abstract:
The characteristic consistency between the original and the stego carriers is an important indicator to evaluate an information hiding algorithm. Different from the traditional carrier pre-processing methods which are based on the operation domains, we propose a characteristics analysis-based preprocessing scheme. We use the Gaussian pyramid filtering and CARDBAL2 multi-wavelet transform to analyze the energy characteristics of the carrier, so the original carrier can be decomposed into several sub-regions with different energy level. And at the same time, the processed carrier shows us the redundancy space structurally through the combination bit plane method, which can provide some invisible hiding positions. Obviously, the energy and structure characteristics are at least related with the robustness and invisibility of the hiding result respectively. So we can improve these performances compared with the traditional methods. At the same time, some optimization theories like the Chebyshev map are used to improve other performances. At last, the experimental shows the achievements of this scheme in the form of data.

Abstract:
Similar to network, vehicle-mounted system has its own vulnerability, which can be used by the attackers. Different from the traditional network security technologies, node security is one of the most important technologies of the vehicle network and it is difficult to achieve because of the mobility and flexibility. In this paper, trusted computing and direct anonymous attestation theories are adopted to establish protocol system of trusted vehicle information authentication, thus the security of authentication process for nodes in vehicle network can be improved. First, we use DAA to achieve the identity authentication for the accessor in single-trusted domain. Second, the improved-DAA will be used to try to promote the security situation in multi-trusted domain. It is illustrated that the efficiency of verification can be increased and the possibility of being attacked can be decreased in single-trusted domain. And the execution efficiency in multi-trusted domain can be improved theoretically.

Abstract:
Computers play a serious role in human life, especially web-based applications running twenty four hours per day. These applications are based on relational database management system and they receive many queries from the users. These queries are executed in the commercial systems one by one without any consideration of past experiences and data analysis. The execution of queries can be faster if some rules were derived from the past queries. In this paper, we propose a statistical query-based rule derivation system by the backward elimination algorithm, which analysis the data based on the past queries in order to derive new rules, and then it uses these rules for the execution of new queries. The computational results are presented and analysed that the system is very efficient and promising.

Abstract:
We presented a unified description of flow control and single steps of a program is given to obtain flexible definitions of algebraic manipulations. This is achieved by using the notion of relational diagram. We show how the notion of relational diagram, introduced by Schmidt, can be used to give a demonic definition for a wide range of programming constructs. It is shown that the input-output relation of a compound diagram is equal to that of the diagram in which each sub-diagram has been replaced by its input-output relation. This process is repeated until elementary diagrams is obtained.

Abstract:
In terms of the structure and working~principle~of Francis turbine, a geometric inversion algorithm for parameters calculation in Francis turbine is proposed in this paper. Firstly through defining unit parameters the linear characteristics of turbine are derived in a certain opening, then the geometric parameters can be reversely calculated. The HL160-LJ--25 model turbine is used to verify the linear relation between the characteristic flow and the characteristic efficiency and reversely perform parameters calculation, and then the relation curves are established between the geometric parameters of turbine and the opening of guide blade, which can make us accurately acquire the energy characteristics of the prototype turbine. It is useful for us to acquire the proper parameters of turbine for purposes of reducing pressure fluctuation of turbine and improving its operating efficiency.

Abstract:
As recently newly techniques, two-phase sparse representation algorithms have been presented, which achieve an excellent performance in face recognition via different phase sparse representation, capturing more local structural information of samples. However, there are some defects in these algorithms:1) The Euclidean distance metric applied in these algorithms fails to capture nonlinear structural information, leading to that the performance of these algorithms is sensitive to the geometric structure of facial images. 2) To select the m nearest neighbors of the test sample is achieved directly by applying sparse representation in training samples, which ignores prior information to construct the sparse representation model. In order to solve these problems, a Weighted Two-Phase Supervised Sparse Representation based on Gaussian (GWTPSSR) algorithm is proposed on basic of existing two-phase sparse representation algorithm, in which the nonlinear local information of samples is captured by exploiting effectively the Gaussian distance metric instead of the Euclidean distance metric. Besides, GWTPSSR recreates reconstruction set from training samples in the sparse representation model for each test sample, making full use of prior information to eliminate some training samples far from the test sample. Compared with existing two-phase sparse representation algorithms, experimental results on standard face datasets show that GWTPSSR has better robustness and classification performance.

Abstract:
Considering the requirements of climbing obstacle and stairs for Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) robot, a method about step feature extraction based on two-dimensional (2D) laser radar is in great demand. In this paper, we research the three-dimensional (3D) environment feature extraction (EFE) method including the 3D point clouds map construction, the line feature extraction and the plane feature extraction. The EFE method can be applied to feature extraction of the step vertical plane. Based on the method, we construct a 3D feature recognition system (FRS) using 2D laser radar. FRS can help us extract quickly the step vertical planes from 3D laser radar line map, thus can provide necessary environment information for the decision and action of EOD robot. We demonstrate the ability of FRS by applying it to some typical step environment.

Abstract:
Traffic congestion visualization is an important part in traffic information service. However, the real-time data is difficult to obtain and its analysis method is not accurate, so the reliability of congestion state visualization is low. This paper proposes a visualization analysis algorithm of traffic congestion based on Floating Car Data (FCD), which utilizes the FCD to estimate and display dynamic traffic state on the electronic map. Firstly, an improved map matching method is put forward to match rapidly the FCD with road sections, which includes two steps of coarse and precise matching. Then, the traffic speed is estimated and classified to display different traffic states. Eventually, multi-group experiments have been conducted based on more than 8000 taxies in Xi’an. The experimental results show that FCD can be matched accurately with the selected road sections which accuracy can reach up to ${\rm{96\% }}$, and the estimated traffic real-time state can achieve ${\rm{94\% }}$ in terms of reliability. So this visualization analysis algorithm can display accurately road traffic state in real time.
