  • This article presents a study of the largest-ever (height = 220 m) cooling tower using the large eddy simulation (LES) method. Information about fluid fields around the tower and 3D aerodynamic time history in full construction process were obtained, and the wind pressure distribution along the entire tower predicted by the developed model was compared with standard curves and measured curves to validate the effectiveness of the simulating method. Based on that, average wind pressure distribution and characteristics of fluid fields in the construction process of ultra-large cooling tower were investigated. The characteristics of fluid fields in full construction process and their working principles were investigated based on wind speeds and vorticities under different construction conditions. Then, time domain characteristics of ultra-large cooling towers in full construction process, including fluctuating wind loads, extreme wind loads, lift and drag coefficients, and relationship of measuring points, were studied and fitting formula of extreme wind load as a function of height was developed based on the nonlinear least square method. Additionally, the frequency domain characteristics of wind loads on the constructing tower, including wind pressure power spectrum at typical measuring points, lift and drag power spectrum, circumferential correlations between typical measuring points, and vertical correlations of lift coefficient and drag coefficient, were analyzed. The results revealed that the random characteristics of fluctuating wind loads, as well as corresponding extreme wind pressure and power spectra curves, varied significantly and in real time with the height of the constructing tower. This study provides references for design of wind loads during construction period of ultra-large cooling towers.

  • Given a closed subset of the family $S^{*}(\alpha)$ of functions starlike of order $\alpha$, a continuous Frechet differentiable functional J, is constructed with this collection as the solution set to the extremal problem ReJ(f) over $S^{*}(\alpha)$. The support points of $S^{*}(\alpha)$ is completely characterized and shown to coincide with the extreme points of its convex hulls. Given any finite collection of support points of $S^{*}(\alpha)$ a continuous linear functional J, is constructed with this collection as the solution set to the extremal problem ReJ(f) over $S^{*}(\alpha)$.

  • This paper presents a new system for online signature verification, approaching for finding gaps between a point-to-point matching and a segment-to-segment matching. Each matching algorithm has been separately used in previous studies. Various features with respect to each matching algorithm have been extracted for solving two-class classification problem. We combined advantages of the two algorithms to implement an efficient system for online signature verification. In the proposed method, extreme feints are used to extract writer-dependent features. In addition, using the writer-dependent features proves to be more adaptive than using writer-independent features in terms of efficiency of classification and verification in this paper.

  • The main object of this paper is to introduce and investigate new subclasses of normalized analytic functions in the open unit disc $\mathbb{U}$, which generalize the familiar class of k-starlike functions. The various properties and characteristics for functions belonging to these classes derived here include (for example) coefficient inequalities, distortion theorems involving fractional calculus, extreme points, integral operators and integral means inequalities.

  • A new class of univalent holomorphic functions with fixed finitely many coefficients based on Generalized fractional derivative are introduced. Also some important properties of this class such as coefficient bounds, convex combination, extreme points, Radii of starlikeness and convexity are investigated.
