Resilient Controller for Markov Switching Systems Under Generally Uncertain Transition Rate LIAN Lian， GAO Xian-wen， QI Wen-hai 2017, 38 (4):  457-461.  DOI: 10.12068/j.issn.1005-3026.2017.04.001 Abstract ( 630 )   HTML   PDF (353KB) ( 781 )   The problem of resilient controller design for stochastic time-delayed Markov switching systems was investigated. Transition rate of the system is generally uncertain， which is more general than the completely known rate and the partly known rate. By full considering features between each element in the generally uncertain transition matrix， a mode-dependent Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional was established， and a resilient controller was designed to ensure that the closed-loop system was stochastically stable for the Markov switching systems. A set of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) was solved to get controller gain matrix. Finally， a numerical example was given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the results.

Then， a convex optimization problem was solved to get the maximum domain of attraction in mean square sense and the state feedback controller gain. Finally， the effectiveness of the results was verified by a numerical example. References | Related Articles | Metrics

The intuitionistic fuzzy analytic hierarchy process and multiple criteria decision making of hierarchical fuzzy integral were used to select cluster heads (CHs)， and a new cluster head competition radius was proposed to make it fit for the network scenarios with energy heterogeneous and nodes non-uniform distribution. To balance energy consumption， a routing algorithm with data ratio distribution was proposed based on residual energy of CHs and transmission energy consumption. The simulation results demonstrated that UCDGAMCD can obtain higher network lifetime in two scenarios—node uniform and non-uniform deployment. References | Related Articles | Metrics

New Compressive Sensing Algorithm Based on Block Segmentation ZHANG Na， CAO Kun， LIU Ya-xuan 2017, 38 (4):  486-492.  DOI: 10.12068/j.issn.1005-3026.2017.04.007 Abstract ( 695 )   HTML   PDF (1316KB) ( 963 )   To solve the blocking artifacts of prior block segment compressive sensing， a new reconstruction algorithm was proposed which could reduce the blocking artifacts at low complexity. When sparse representing， discrete wavelet transform (DWT) method was utilized instead of discrete cosine transform (DCT) to improve detail component of image. When measuring， the measurement matrix of each block was reweighted to improve the quality of image according to the difference frequency between each block. When reconstructing， the orthogonal matching pursuit (OMP) algorithm was used to speed up reconstruction rather than the matching pursuit (MP) algorithm. Simulation results demonstrated that the blocking artifacts could be effectively eliminated by the proposed algorithm without making any effects on reconstruction speed and memory requirement.

Effect of Siderite and Dolomite on Flotation of Quartz LI Dong， YIN Wan-zhong， YAO Jin， CAO Shao-hang 2017, 38 (4):  557-561.  DOI: 10.12068/j.issn.1005-3026.2017.04.021 Abstract ( 792 )   HTML   PDF (556KB) ( 909 )   Flotation test， adsorption test， and solution chemical calculations were used to investigate the effect of siderite and dolomite on quartz flotation in sodium oleate flotation system. The results of flotation and adsorption tests showed that the effect of siderite on quartz flotation is related to the dissolved siderite species and starch， and siderite significantly influences flotation of quartz in the presence of starch. The negative effect of dolomite on quartz flotation could be whittled by increasing the dosage of sodium oleate. The solution chemical calculations indicated that dissolved siderite species might convert the initial surface of active quartz to CaCO3 precipitates which can be easily depressed by starch， while the dolomite dissolution is restrained by calcium ions in the solution， which might explain the difference of effects on quartz flotation between dissolved siderite species and dissolved dolomite species.

Acoustic emission as a criterion of warning was discussed. Results showed that after the wetting front has reached the corresponding measuring point， the volume fraction of water increases continually， and the water level begins to increase untill the volume fraction of water reaches its peak value. The displacement at the top of the slope is large and is small at the toe， and the increase of the displacement of the slope has an acceleration process before failure occurs. The tilt angle increases suddenly when failure occurs. The acoustic emission accounts increase slowly at first and sharply afterwards. Slope failure is strongly linked to surface runoff and fine particle migration. References | Related Articles | Metrics

Based on the test results， a creep model was proposed to describe the transversely isotropic creep behavior of the carbonaceous slate， which needs more parameters in the creep potential function to describe the transversely isotropic creep behavior than in the conventional potential function. A method for the determination of creep parameters was developed using back analysis， which is helpful in reducing the number of creep tests needed to determine the creep parameters and is applicable in practice. This study contributes to the understanding of the transversely isotropic behavior of rocks and to the design of the lining system in the transversely isotropic stratum.

Mathematical Prediction on Effect of Tailing Discharge of Open-Pit on Stability of Underground Mined Out Area SHI Xiu-zhi， CHEN Jia-yao， ZHOU Jian， QIU Xian-yang 2017, 38 (4):  591-597.  DOI: 10.12068/j.issn.1005-3026.2017.04.028 Abstract ( 522 )   HTML   PDF (2387KB) ( 864 )   To reveal the impact of the height of the tailing dry stacked gangue (H) on the span of double gob area (D) and the roof thickness (h)， the simulation software FLAC3D was used to simulate the excavation process of the double gob area of different spans during the tailing-backfilling process. The stress， plastic zones and the displacement of monitoring points of double gob area were analyzed by combining with the hyperbolic fitting equations， traditional failure criterion and the thickness reduction methods. When D is kept constant， tensile and compressive stress and the plastic zone area increase with the increase of H， and the displacement of all monitoring points increase significantly when the span is larger than 20m. When H is kept constant， the displacement and the plastic zone area increase with the increase of D， and it can be quantitatively predicted that when the span is up to 26m， the critical damage height of tailing dry stacked gangue is 182.44 and 189.85m， respectively. When D and H are changed， the plastic zones of the double gob area take on a butterfly-shape， and the plastic zone area of the upper gob is greater than that of the lower part. A cutting-through failure will occur when the span exceeds 20m and the tailing height exceeds 150m. References | Related Articles | Metrics

Fluctuation Relationship Between Land and House Prices Based on Simultaneous Equation TANG Kai， ZHUANG Xin-tian， LU Pan-pan， LI Xiao-qing 2017, 38 (4):  598-603.  DOI: 10.12068/j.issn.1005-3026.2017.04.029 Abstract ( 615 )   HTML   PDF (380KB) ( 907 )   A simultaneous equation model for the relations of urban real estate prices in our country was built， and parameter estimation of national key sample cities was given according to the quadratic least squares. The results indicated that simultaneity and interplay exist between land and house prices. The number of population has a great influence on land price. Per capita disposable income and real estate development investment raise the house price， but house sales area is quite the reverse. House price lag greatly affects house price. The expectation of fluctuating prices impacts on the investor sentiment and leads to the changes of house price. References | Related Articles | Metrics

Patient Routing Based on Beds Fairness from Outpatient Department to Internal Wards CHEN Dan ， ZHU Hua-bo ， LUO Xing-gang 2017, 38 (4):  604-608.  DOI: 10.12068/j.issn.1005-3026.2017.04.030 Abstract ( 718 )   HTML   PDF (613KB) ( 758 )   Based on theoretical analysis of flowchart and mass patient flow data， an inverted-V model with single patient queue and several heterogeneous server pools was established to describe patient routing allocation process. With the goal of routing allocation fairness for the beds of internal wards， the application of Markov process of randomized most-idle (RMI) routing policy in the inverted-V model was analyzed. The occupied and service rates of sever pools under different routing policies were obtained， and the routing policy fairness was analyzed theoretically. The experimental results showed the occupied and service rates for different server pool under RMI policy are more balanced than that of the average allocation policy.
