Study on Impact Excitation and System Dynamic Characteristics of Shield Machine Planetary Gear Train by Zeyin HE, Hongjian WU, Zhen YANG, Feng YI, ShiFeng PEI

“…However, the induced inline impact excitation increases the dynamic meshing force of the gear system, leading to increased vibration of the planetary gear system. Compared to the planetary gear system's finite element simulation numerical solution and the theoretical analysis solution, the relative errors of external and internal meshing impacts were 3.21% and 6.4%, respectively, and the average meshing force errors were 6.93% and 3.8%, respectively. …”

A comparison of computational efficiencies of stochastic algorithms in terms of two infection models by H. Thomas Banks, Shuhua Hu, Michele Joyner, Anna Broido, Brandi Canter, Kaitlyn Gayvert, Kathryn Link

“…In this paper, we investigate three particular algorithms: a stochastic simulation algorithm (SSA), and explicit and implicit tau-leaping algorithms. To compare these methods, we used them to analyze two infection models: a Vancomycin-resistant enterococcus (VRE) infection model at the population level, and a Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) within host infection model. …”

Symbolic Regression-Based Modeling for Aerodynamic Ground-to-Flight Deviation Laws of Aerospace Vehicles by Di Ding, Qing Wang, Qin Chen, Lei He

“…For UAV flight test data, the average root mean square error (RMSE) of the mathematical model demonstrates a maximum improvement of 37% in accuracy compared to three data-driven methods. For XRLV flight test data, the prediction accuracy of the mathematical model shows an enhancement exceeding 80% relative to Gaussian kernel SVM and Gaussian process data-driven models. …”
