  • Publication number: 20230409767
    Abstract: Disclosed is design optimization method of the structure considering centrifugal loads and stress constraints. Compared with the prior art, this application improves the method for obtaining the relaxation coefficient c, including the calculation of the second predicted maximum stress based on the predicted stress method from steps S9.1 to S9.8. The influence of the existence of jagged boundaries and gray densities on the calculation of the structural stress field is reduced. The most important thing is to decide whether to use linear penalty or nonlinear penalty for the elastic modulus of each element according to the ratio of the number of elements with design variables less than 0.1 and greater than 0.9 to the total number of elements. Introducing the predicted maximum stress can make full use of the allowable stress of materials, improve the quality of optimization design, and obtain a design scheme with a lighter mass.

  • Patent number: 11782111
    Abstract: A new method for reconstructing a full spectrum from under-sampled magnetic resonance spectrum data by using a deep learning network. First, the exponential function is used to generate a time-domain signal of the magnetic resonance spectrum, and a zero-filling time-domain signal is obtained after the under-sampled operation is completed in the time domain. The zero-filling time-domain signal and the full spectrum corresponding to the full sampling are combined to form a training data set. Then, a data verification convolutional neural network model is established for magnetic resonance spectrum reconstruction, where the training data set is used to train neural network parameters to form a trained neural network. Finally, the under-sampled magnetic resonance time-domain signal is input to the trained data verification convolutional neural network, and the full magnetic resonance spectrum is reconstructed.
