Anti-symmetric Plane Anti-symmetric Arch Cable-stayed Bridge abutment Joint Stress Analysis based on Finite Element Method

Investigation on Deck-Stay Interaction of Symmetric Harp Cable-Stayed Bridge

This paper provides a variety of viewpoints to illustrate the mechanism of the deck-stay interaction with the appropriate initial shapes of cable-stayed bridges, which is validated by a symmetrical structure. Based on the smooth and convergent bridge shapes obtained by the initial shape analysis, the one-element cable system (OECS) and multi-element cable system (MECS) models of the symmetric h...

Spectral Analysis of Symmetric and Anti-Symmetric Pairwise Kernels

We consider the problem of learning regression functions from pairwise data when there exists prior knowledge that the relation to be learned is symmetric or anti-symmetric. Such prior knowledge is commonly enforced by symmetrizing or anti-symmetrizing pairwise kernel functions. Through spectral analysis, we show that these transformations reduce the kernel’s effective dimension. Further, we pr...

Symmetric and anti-symmetric quantum functions

SYMMETRIC AND ANTI-SYMMETRIC QUANTUM FUNCTIONS J. Robert Burger California State University Northridge CSUN Report Number HCEEN006_2A ABSTRACT This paper introduces and analyzes symmetric and anti-symmetric quantum binary functions. Generally, such functions uniquely convert a given computational basis state into a different basis state, but with either a plus or a minus sign. Such functions ma...

Electrical and Thermal Analysis of Single Conductor Power Cable Considering the Lead Sheath Effect Based on Finite Element Method

This paper investigates the effect of metallic sheaths on losses and temperature of medium voltage power cables. Two grounding methods of sheaths, including both ends bonding and single point bonding that causes different situations on cable ampacity, are considered. Electrical losses of cables that are main sources of heat are calculated in both conductor and metallic sheath of the cables. She...
