چکیده

We study the corrections to scaling for the mass of the watershed, the bridge line, and the optimal path crack in two and three dimensions (2D and 3D). We disclose that these models have numerically equivalent fractal dimensions and leading correction-to-scaling exponents. We conjecture all three models to possess the same fractal dimension, namely, d(f) =1.2168 ± 0.0005 in 2D and d(f) = 2.487 ± 0.003 in 3D, and the same exponent of the leading correction, Ω = 0.9 ± 0.1 and Ω=1.0 ± 0.1, respectively. The close relations between watersheds, optimal path cracks in the strong disorder limit, and bridge lines are further supported by either heuristic or exact arguments.

Bridge Percolation

In bridge percolation one gives a special weight to bridges, i.e., bonds that if occupied would create the first spanning cluster. We show that, for p > pc, even far away from the critical point of classical percolation, the set of bridge bonds is fractal with a fractal dimension dBB = 1.215±0.002. This new percolation exponent is related to various different models like, e.g., the optimal path...

Determination of Sliding Path in Rock Slopes Containing Coplanar Non-Persistent Open Discontinuity

In 3-D analyses of rock slopes there’re can be numerous sliding paths a long a coplanar nonpersistent discontinuity with a known strike. This paper describes an approach for the determination of a most probable sliding path. For this particular study, several blocks of gypsum with the dimensions of 15×15×15 cm containing coplanar non-persistent open joints were fabricated. The models have vario...

Analysis of Fatigue Cracks of Diesel Engines Cylinder Heads using a Two-Layer Viscoplasticity Model and Considering Viscousity Effects

Loading conditions and complex geometry have led the cylinder heads to become the most challenging parts of diesel engines. One of the most important durability problems in diesel engines is due to the cracks valves bridge area. The purpose of this study is a thermo-mechanical analysis of cylinder heads of diesel engines using a two-layer viscoplasticity model. The results of the thermo-mechani...

Some links between min-cuts, optimal spanning forests and watersheds

Di erent optimal structures: minimum cuts, minimum spanning forests and shortest-path forests, have been used as the basis for powerful image segmentation procedures. The well-known notion of watershed also falls into this category. In this paper, we present some new results about the links which exist between these di erent approaches. Especially, we show that min-cuts coincide with watersheds...

OPTIMAL GROUND MOTION SCALING USING ENHANCED SWARM INTELLIGENCE FOR SIZING DESIGN OF STEEL FRAMES

Dynamic structural responses via time history analysis are highly dependent to characteristics of selected records as the seismic excitation. Ground motion scaling is a well-known solution to reduce such a dependency and increase reliability to the dynamic results. The present work, formulate a twofold problem for optimal spectral matching and performing consequent sizing optimization based on ...
