    Region-Aware Trace Signal Selection Using Machine Learning Technique for Silicon Validation and Debug

    R. Agalya1, R. Muthaiah2,*, D. Muralidharan3
    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.120, No.1, pp. 25-43, 2019, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2019.05616
    Abstract In today’s modern design technology, post-silicon validation is an expensive and composite task. The major challenge involved in this method is that it has limited observability and controllability of internal signals. There will be an issue during execution how to address the useful set of signals and store it in the on-chip trace buffer. The existing approaches are restricted to particular debug set-up where all the components have equivalent prominence at all the time. Practically, the verification engineers will emphasis only on useful functional regions or components. Due to some constraints like clock gating, some of the regions can be… More >

    Blending Basic Shapes By C-Type Splines and Subdivision Scheme

    Xiang Li1, Mei-E Fang1,2,*, QIan Qi2
    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.120, No.1, pp. 45-62, 2019, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2019.05659
    Abstract In this article, we adopt the C-type spline of degree 2 to model and blend basic shapes including conics and circle arcs. The C-type spline belongs to the ωB-spline category of splines that are capable of blending polynomial, trigonometric and hyperbolic functions. Commonly used basic shapes can be exactly represented by these types of splines. We derive explicit formulas for the convenience of modeling the basic curves. The entire blending curve is C1-continuous. In comparison with the existing best blending method by rational G2 splines, which are rational splines of degree 3, the proposed method allows simpler representation and blending… More >

    Equivalence of Ratio and Residual Approaches in the Homotopy Analysis Method and Some Applications in Nonlinear Science and Engineering

    Mustafa Turkyilmazoglu1,*
    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.120, No.1, pp. 63-81, 2019, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2019.06858
    Abstract A ratio approach based on the simple ratio test associated with the terms of homotopy series was proposed by the author in the previous publications. It was shown in the latter through various comparative physical models that the ratio approach of identifying the range of the convergence control parameter and also an optimal value for it in the homotopy analysis method is a promising alternative to the classically used h-level curves or to the minimizing the residual (squared) error. A mathematical analysis is targeted here to prove the equivalence of both the ratio approach and the traditional residual approach, especially… More >

    Numerical Validations of the Tangent Linear Model for the Lorenz Equations

    Tengjin Zhao1, Jing Zhang1, Zhilin Li2, Zhiyue Zhang1,*
    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.120, No.1, pp. 83-104, 2019, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2019.04483
    Abstract The validity of the tangent linear model (TLM) is studied numerically using the example of the Lorenz equations in this paper. The relationship between the limit of the validity time of the TLM and initial perturbations for the Lorenz equations is investigated using the Monte Carlo sampling method. A new error function between the nonlinear and the linear evolution of the perturbations is proposed. Furthermore, numerical sensitivity analysis is carried to establish the relationship between parameters and the validity of the TLM, such as the initial perturbation, the prediction time, the time step size and so on, by the method… More >

    Modelling and Backstepping Motion Control of the Aircraft Skin Inspection Robot

    Junjun Jiang1, Congqing Wang1,*
    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.120, No.1, pp. 105-121, 2019, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2019.06277
    Abstract Aircraft skin health concerns whether the aircraft can fly safely. In this paper, an improved mechanical structure of the aircraft skin inspection robot was introduced. Considering that the aircraft skin surface is a curved environment, we assume that the curved environment is equivalent to an inclined plane with a change in inclination. Based on this assumption, the Cartesian dynamics model of the robot is established using the Lagrange method. In order to control the robot’s movement position accurately, a position backstepping control scheme for the aircraft skin inspection robot was presented. According to the dynamic model and taking into account… More >

    A Multiscale Method for Damage Analysis of Quasi-Brittle Heterogeneous Materials

    Filip Putar1, Jurica Sorić1,*, Tomislav Lesičar1, Zdenko Tonković1
    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.120, No.1, pp. 123-156, 2019, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2019.06562
    Abstract A novel multiscale algorithm based on the higher-order continuum at both micro- and macrostructural level is proposed for the consideration of the quasi-brittle damage response of heterogeneous materials. Herein, the microlevel damage is modelled by the degradation of the homogenized stress and tangent stiffness tensors, which are then upscaled to govern the localization at the macrolevel. The C1 continuity finite element employing a modified case of Mindlin’s form II strain energy density is derived for the softening analysis. To the authors’ knowledge, the finite element discretization based on the strain gradient theory is applied for the modeling of damage evolution… More >

    Numerical Simulation of Derusting Treatment of Steel Parts By Shot Blast

    Zhe Li1, Fan Yang1,*, Yaping Liu1, Yukui Gao1
    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.120, No.1, pp. 157-175, 2019, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2019.05187
    Abstract In this paper, we investigated the shot blast treatment for derusting application through finite element (FE) simulations with a large number of random shots. The element deletion technique based on dynamic failure criteria was used to model the removal of rust. The cohesive surface model with damage evolution was used to characterize the decohesion of the rust/substrate interface. The effects of various processing and material parameters on the derusting effectiveness were examined. The results show that the rate of derusting mainly depends on the shot size, velocity and impinging angle, with little relevance to the rust thickness. The spalling of… More >

    A Correct Smoothed Particle Method to Model Structure-Ice Interaction

    Yang Liu1,*, Yue Qiao2, Tiange Li3
    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.120, No.1, pp. 177-201, 2019, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2019.06338
    Abstract This paper studies the effect of ice resistance on the icebreaking capacity and speed of an icebreaking vessel. We combine an improved Correct Smoothed Particle Method (CSPM) with a material low-speed collision fracture model to numerically simulate the continuous icebreaking and rolling process of crushed. Using this model, we investigate the icebreaking resistance and immersion resistance during the icebreaking process, taking into account the fluid (water) as the elastic boundary support and the fluid-solid coupling interaction. We compare the icebreaking resistance and broken ice fracture shapes obtained by the numerical calculation with the theoretical analytical results, and thus validate the… More >

    Stagnation Point Flow Over a Permeable Stretching/Shrinking Sheet with Chemical Reaction and Heat Source/Sink

    Izyan Syazana Awaludin1, 2, Anuar Ishak2,*, Ioan Pop3
    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.120, No.1, pp. 203-214, 2019, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2019.06594
    Abstract The present study considers the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) stagnation point flow with chemical reaction effect over a permeable stretching/shrinking sheet. The partial differential equations are reduced to a set of ordinary differential equations using a similarity transformation. The transformed equations are then solved numerically by employing the bvp4c function available in the MATLAB software. The numerical results illustrate the effects of several parameters on the skin friction coefficient, local Nusselt number and the local Sherwood number. Dual solutions are obtained for a certain range of parameters. The temporal stability analysis is carried out to determine which one of these solutions is… More >

    Yana Wang1,2,3,4, Ruodi Jia1,5, Fengrui Liu1,5,6,*
    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.120, No.1, pp. 215-234, 2019, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2019.06542
    Abstract Delamination and matrix cracking are two common failure mechanisms in composite structures, and are usually coupled with each other, leading to multiple failures pattern. This paper proposed a fast damage prediction methodology for composite laminated structures based on the ply-by-ply 2D (two dimensional) FE model of composite laminates in the transverse plane. The layer-wise 2D FE model was firstly used in conjunction with the integrated XFEM/CE strategy, which simulated the interface delamination with cohesive elements and the intra-ply matrix crack with XFEM (extended finite element method). To realize ply-by-ply 2D FE (finite element) modeling of composite laminates, two 2D material… More >
