By applying the technique of continuous partition of unity and Tychonoff’s fixed point theorem, some new collectively fixed point theorems for a family of set-valued mappings defined on the product space of noncompact G-convex spaces are proved. As applications, some nonempty intersetion theorems of Ky Fan type for a family of subsets of the product space of G-convex spaces are proved; An existence theorem of solutions for a system of nonlinear inequalities is given in G-convex spaces and some equilibrium existence theorems of abstract economies are also obtained in G-convex spaces. Our theorems improve, unify and generalized many important known results in recent literature.

The effect of domain switching on anisotropic fracture behavior of polycrystalline ferroelectric ceramics was revealed on the basis of the micromechanics method Firstly, the electroelastic field inside and outside an inclusion in an infinite ferroelectric ceramics is carried out by the way of Eshelby-Mori-Tanaka’s theory and a statistical model, which accounts for the influence of domain switching Further, the crack extension force (energy-release rate) G_ext for a penny-shape crack inside an effective polycrystalline ferroelectric ceramics is derived to estimate the averaged effect of domain switching on the fracture behavior of polycrystalline ferroelectric ceramics The simulations of the crack extension force for a crack in a BaTiO₃ ceramics are shown that the effect of domain switching must be taken into consideration while analyzing the fracture behavior of polycrystalline ferroelectric ceramics These results also demonstrate that the influence of the applied electric field on the crack propagation is more profound at smaller mechanical loading and the applied electric field may enhance the crack extension in a sense, which are consistent with the experimental results.

The following is proved: 1) The linear independence of assumed stress modes is the necessary and sufficient condition for the nonsingular flexibility matrix;2. ) The equivalent assumed stress modes lead to the identical hybrid element The Hilbert stress subspace of the assumed stress modes is established So, it is easy to derive the equivalent orthogonal normal stress modes by Schmidt’s method Because of the resulting diagonal flexibility matrix, the identical hybrid element is free from the complex matrix inversion so that the hybrid efficiency is improved greatly The numerical examples show that the method is effective.

Stability perturbation bounds problem for systems with mixed uncertainties is discussed It is supposed that the linear part in the forward loop is of parametric uncertainties described by interval perturbation mode, and that the nonlinear part in the feedback loop is characterized by an integral quadratic constraint (IQC)The definition of stability margin under the interval perturbation mode is given by using the Minkowski functional The infinite stability checking problem of the mixed uncertain system can be converted to finite or one dimensional stability checking for different structures of the IQC multipliers based on the concepts of biconvex and convex-concave functions and their properties The result is illustrated to be efficient through an example.

An efficient and stable structure preserving algorithm, which is a variant of the QR like (SR) algorithm due to Bunse-Gerstner and Mehrmann, is presented for computing the eigenvalues and stable invariant subspaces of a Hamiltonian matrix In the algorithm two strategies are employed, one of which is called dis-unstabilization technique and the other is preprocessing technique Together with them, a so-called ratio-reduction equation and a backtrack technique are introduced to avoid the instability and breakdown in the original algorithm It is shown that the new algorithm can overcome the instability and breakdown at low cost Numerical results have demonstrated that the algorithm is stable and can compute the eigenvalues to very high accuracy.

The nonlinear and transient vibration of a rotor, which dropped onto back-up bearings when its active magnetic bearings were out of order, was investigated After strictly deriving its equations of motion and performing numerical simulations, the time-histories of rotating speed of the dropping rotor, and normal force at the rubbing contact point as well as the frequency spectrum of the vibration displacement of back-up bearings are fully analyzed It is found that the strong and unsteady forced bending vibration of the unbalanced and damped rotor decelerating through its first bending vibtation of the unbalanced and damped rotor decelerating through its first critical speed as well as chattering at high frequencies caused by the nonlinearity at the rubbing contact point between the journal and back-up bearings may lead to the catastrophic damage of the system
